Each room has its own unique energy. When it is in harmony with the biofield of people living in this room, their life is successful. The ancient Chinese philosophy of Feng Shui preaches the proper organization of energy flows. This helps to neutralize the negative energy of the Sha and the activation of positive qi.
What it is?
Bagua scheme divides the area of the house into certain zones. According to Feng Shui, you can use a special magic square in your home. The importance of division into trigrams was deciphered about 40 centuries ago. Feng Shui philosophy claims that our life is divided into 9 sectors. They are displayed as a bagua grid.
The grid consists of an octagon, which is composed of trigrams. Each of the 9 zones oversees a specific aspect of life (fame, career, creativity and others). All zones have a specific color scheme, which has an important meaning, according to the doctrine. Bagua has long been used to identify and redistribute energy and its connection with space.
The meaning of Feng Shui theory is to make the home an assistant in improving our lives. The flow of energy should work for us, and not vice versa. All this is achieved with the help of simple reconstructions of the interior.
Feng Shui shows how to allocate sectors in the house, how to organize the space in the house.
How to determine the cardinal points?
To recognize the Feng Shui area in the drawing scheme of the home, you need to apply the bagua grid. First, you need to take the Feng Shui zone corresponding to the north (career zone).Then set the north side on the floor plan. This will help a conventional compass. Find the north along it, and you will understand which window or door faces the northern part of the world.
You can make it even simpler - see and remember from which window the sunrise is visible in the morning. And we get the exact definition of the east side. Or mark the sunset from another window. A refinement of the west will appear. Next, you need to impose a bagua scheme on the apartment plan.
Then, if you add a bagua grid to the dwelling plan, you can draw the location of all 8 zones. The overlay is made so that the central part of the apartment coincides with the center of Bagua. Combine the remaining sectors with the compass divisions: north, northeast, south, southwest, east, southeast, west, and so on.
It turns out that the division of the room into parts arose by analogy with the division into parts of the world. The northern sector of Bagua must coincide with the northern part of the house, for the correct reflection of all other zones. When determining the Feng Shui sectors in the house, it should be borne in mind that the resulting scheme will have to be combined with the general layout of the room. If the layout of your home is in the wrong configuration, it is advisable to adjust the plan to get a square shape or rectangle.
After receiving an apartment plan, painted by Feng Shui, it is advisable to detail each plot received. For example, “wealth zone - kitchen”, “family zone - corridor”. Now you can inspect all rooms in order to identify problem areas. Which rooms have a lot of junk accumulated? Where more effort is required? Try to identify the zones that are relevant to you at the moment.
If there are financial problems - mark the zone of wealth, if there is a violation of well-being - highlight the health sector, etc.
Zone Descriptions
An octagon is formed from 8 sectors arranged in a circle. Some representatives of the doctrine distinguish the center as the ninth zone (of health). Others do not recognize her. Nevertheless, the center of the figure (like any other) still exists. Therefore, the middle of the apartment should be located accordingly to the grid. And the central zone of Bagua is simply combined with the family sector.

Activation
Activating sectors that have already been identified is a method that improves many areas of life, changing the energy of an apartment. But to equalize the flow of good energy in the house, it is not enough to activate certain areas of the bagua. Certain conditions and patterns that directly affect the activation of zones must also be observed.
Door status
- It is necessary to keep the front door in a tidy condition. It protects the house from negative energy and robbers.
- For the unhindered entry of good energy into the apartment, the door must open inward. It is desirable to have an integral, strong door.
Corridor
- Do not store unnecessary garbage at the entrance to the house, as it attracts destructive energy.
- Do not keep cleaning equipment in the corridor (broom, mop, etc.).
Window Status
- Equally important in the teaching is the magnitude and clarity of the windows. Wide, tall windows facilitate the easy passage of qi energy into the room. And the accumulation of dirt contributes to the accumulation of destructive energy sha.
- It is undesirable to put lattices in window openings, and to hang heavy curtains on curtains.
- Do not place many plants on the windowsill. It is enough to leave only a few healthy plants.
Clean house
- Keep your living room clean.
- The room should have a smooth circulation of qi energy. Periodically remove unnecessary things from home. Obsolete, damaged items act negatively. It is necessary to periodically remove them from cabinets, shelves, drawers and tables from the kitchen. A cosmetic bag and a first-aid kit accumulate too much of the old cosmetics and medicines. This trash must be disposed of.
Placement of furniture and objects in the house
- The movement of objects in the premises gives the prevention of stagnation of negative energy. Moreover, there is no particular need for the movement of furniture. Just swap 27 things. For example: vases, frames, books, photos.
- A large library attracts negative energy. It must be dispersed by changing the arrangement of the books. Cleaning books with a cloth soaked in saline will destroy mental pollution.
Sanitary rooms
- The dressing room and bathroom should be kept neat.
- In order for the money stream not to stop, the doors of these premises should usually be closed. The lid of the toilet is covered.
- If water leaks from the tank, the flushing device must be replaced immediately.
Lighting
- The light in the apartment should be bright. Burnt incandescent lamps should be replaced immediately.
- Light up scented candles more often that attract pure energy.
Color solutions in the apartment
To comply with the rules of Feng Shui, it is important to correctly select the color drawings of the rooms. The color scheme should be coordinated with the bagua grid. But consider your own taste. Moreover, to update the design, it is not necessary to change the color of the walls, re-paste the wallpaper in the room. You can add just objects that match the color of a given zone, relying more on your intuition.
Strengthening Feng Shui Zones
For the smooth operation of ancient Chinese science, it is necessary to strengthen several sectors in the house. Feng Shui activates them with the help of certain objects that attract qi energy. For example, to strengthen the welfare zone, it is advisable to put an aquarium on the southeast side. It can hold Chinese coins tied with a red ribbon. But the main thing is not to overdo it. Just activate some of the most important zones.
For example: health, wealth and career. Their influence is huge. Accordingly, it will affect other areas of life.
Feng Shui and studio apartment
It is not easy to observe all the postulates of the ancient Chinese doctrine in a small territory, however, it is possible for this:
- it is worth removing all the garbage, it is advisable to carry out a general cleaning in the descending phase of the moon;
- use amulets;
- activate the desired zones;
- refresh the air in the apartment every day.
How to adjust the missing zones in the house?
If your house has an unusual architectural form (the letter "G" or "T"), then it is not always possible to determine all the zones. In this case, you can simply activate the missing zones in any single sector. Or even split just one room into all areas of the bagua grid. Since the compass will certainly show all the cardinal directions in the room, it is quite logical to divide the room into 8 parts. Thus, the teaching of Feng Shui is quite flexible and accessible even with all the millennial monumentality of its laws.
