Decorating In Fengshui Way By Pramila

| Furniture Placement: |
|
|
The way furniture is arranged
enhances the life force. Furniture placement in
feng shui is a key element in directing the flow
of Chi.
When placing furniture it is important not to block,
interfere, distort, or force the flow of chi. Place
furniture parallel to walls as this will not cram
furniture and accessories into a tight space. Have
the minimum in the room. Have least three feet of
space between furniture. Raise beds, chairs, and
couches at least a few inches off the floor.
No furniture opposite bedrooms. Dining chairs should
be even in number. Shoe racks should be placed in
the southwest portion of the verandah or hall only.
Do not place in the east southeast or north.
Your room needs some air too. So position the furniture
so it allows chi to move freely and also a good
view of the entryway. Frequently used items at eye
level so you may reach it when necessary. Place
almirah containing important documents in the southwest
corner of the room, or southwest room. It should
be facing the North or EAST. If placing in other
rooms, or areas, have 6 feet gap between the wall
and the almirah. |

Accessories can add a personal
touch. Pictures should be placed at so that when sitting down
they are not too high above eye level. When hanging big pictures,
hung over a large piece of furniture.
Arranging your furnishings a certain way can bring forth good
fortune into various aspects of your life. Here are a few suggestions
to certain areas of your life:
Health Area:
Colors green, black, and red are best in the east part of your
home. Images of streams, trees and fish ponds are good in this
area. Adding a plant or organic accessories, with bright lights
will be good to add to this area.

This is the area that the sun sets in your house. This is the
west. The best colors here are white, dark blue and yellow.
Family photos, toys, awards, crystals, stones and round shapes
go great

This is the south part of the home. Colors are red and yellow.
Place objects that represent you. Photos, awards and trophies.
Wood objects, and electrical appliances are good for this area.
Business Area:
The north end of your home or near the main entry is good for
your business. Use dark blue, white, black or gray colors here.
Irregular shapes and metals like gold, copper and bronze goes
well here. This is the area that putting your phone, desk and
computer is good.
Love Area:
The southwest of your house is the love area. Use earthy colors
like brown and yellow, or the Fire colors such as pink and red.
Metals and stones are great. Place crystals, romantic objects
and photos and still water in this area.
Money Area:
The southeast or the far left of the entry of any room. Use
the colors green, red or black. Place plants that are round-leafed.

three coins under your plant. Items to keep out of this area
are coffee pots, storage items, electrical appliances and pointy
plants.
