Your Best Feng Shui Directions and How to Use Them

Your best feng shui directions are determined by your Kua number and can be used when positioning your bed, your desk or in places where you spend significant amounts of time. These directions are useful guidance, not rules to fear. Used pragmatically, they can help make better choices at home and at work.

The info on lucky and unlucky feng shui directions is awesome and helpful but way too often taken the wrong way. While knowing this information is helpful, it is important to understand that feng shui is not a religion. You will not suffer if you face a direction that is not that lucky for you, or if your loved ones have different lucky directions from yours. You will also most definitely not suffer if you are not wearing your personal lucky colors, or the lucky colors of the year.

As with most things feng shui, use this information to help you, not to rule your life. Basically, your lucky feng shui directions are considered to have more supportive energy for you; while the unlucky directions obviously do the opposite. Knowing that you are the one in charge, have a look at the chart below. Note that to find your lucky feng shui directions, you first have to know your Kua number. Then you can easily find your lucky directions, and do your best to use them (wisely) in your home or office.

Your Best Feng Shui Directions

This information is applied to areas where you tend to spend more time, such as your bedroom or your office. You can position your bed with the headboard directed toward one of your best directions. The same applies to your office; you can position your desk so as to benefit from best energies.

As for your unlucky directions, I will not mention them because logically, the other four directions that are not listed for your Kua number as lucky, are considered unlucky. You might have seen feng shui charts online with many dreadful names attached to them, from ghosts to killing energy and other vampire-like wording.

Do not give in to this fearful energy. Develop an intelligent and logical approach to feng shui, so that you can benefit from applying it in your home. As for the other approach, the one driven by superstition or fear, know that it never works. It is best to use feng shui pragmatically. Experiment with facing your best directions, and see if this makes a difference. I know it does for me.

We were getting on each other's nerves. Now, walking into a room, it feels a lot more spacious. Visitors say the house looks bigger. We love the flow that has been created. The change made to the ‘heart’ of our home is amazing, it is much more serene and calm now. I look forward to going home after a long day at work.
