Every person should have his own home: a place that provides shelter, warmth and comfort, as well as the opportunity to restore strength lost during the day. A properly arranged house charges a person with the positive energy he needs to continue living. Where does it come from in the house, and is there positive energy in all houses?
Unfortunately, such a blissful picture is not observed in every home. Residents of some homes often complain of poor health and chronic fatigue, without even suspecting that the cause of this condition is not a disease, but an extremely unfavorable energy situation in the house.
A catastrophic lack of positive energy, as a rule, is observed in cluttered, insufficiently lit, unkempt rooms.
How to correct the situation, fill your home with beneficial energy, make it a source of vitality and the basis for a prosperous and happy life for everyone who lives in it? The ancient Chinese practice of Feng Shui will help correct the situation.
Feng Shui house location
The area in which the house is located is of no small importance, since it can affect both the physical and mental health of a person. So, what area is considered suitable for the location of a residential building from a Feng Shui point of view?
- There should be no busy highways, swamps or places for storing waste (in other words, garbage dumps) near the site on which the house is located.
- The site should be planned in such a way that there is a fairly large open space in front of the house, and residential buildings, mountains, a dense beautiful forest or park are located behind it.
This is consistent with the subconscious desire of every person to have a reliably protected rear. It is desirable that all of the listed objects be located on a small natural elevation. There should be no slopes or cliffs on the back side of the house. - Feng Shui experts say that any plants (even poisonous ones) are a source of life-giving qi energy. Therefore, an area planted with pears, cherries, plums and apple trees is a very favorable place to locate a house.
- The presence of a body of water (river, lake, sea or pond) is a very important factor from the point of view of Feng Shui.
Its location on the site is no less important, since it should flow in front of the residential building itself, and not behind it. The best source of life-giving and pure chi energy can be a calmly flowing river with a winding shoreline and clear water. - The garden plot should be spacious and not cluttered with a large number of outbuildings that block the path of life-giving energy.
Garden plot elements
A dacha is a place where a person spends a significant part of his time during the hot season. Working on the plot, relaxing in the evening listening to the singing of cicadas, family picnics or simply spending time with friends - all this can be subordinated to the great laws of Feng Shui and with this help bring even more harmony and joy to the family.
In the landscape design of household plots in China and Japan, there are no perfectly smooth paths, geometrically trimmed flower beds and bright illumination. The development of sites in these countries is subordinated to the unity of man with the surrounding world. According to Eastern sages, if a person wants to achieve inner harmony by erecting any architectural buildings and installing garden paraphernalia in the lap of nature, he must take into account the Feng Shui rules of the site. Otherwise, improper arrangement can lead to disharmony of natural elements, which will entail the disappearance of favorable energy.
“Dream House” will help you figure out how to properly arrange a dacha or a plot of land according to Feng Shui today, by talking about the basic rules and techniques.
Feng Shui of the site
Building a house according to Feng Shui
By building a house with our own hands, we get the opportunity to build it for ourselves, taking into account our characteristics and preferences.
Starting construction from scratch, you can create a building that meets all the wishes of Feng Shui practice, thanks to which the life of the people who live in it will be full of harmony and well-being.
- If you are just planning to build a house on an already purchased plot, take a close look at it: having found a place with lush and bright grass (which indicates close groundwater), position the building so that this place is right in front of the entrance to the home. Thanks to this arrangement, the flow of positive energy will go directly into it. The area can be surrounded by shrubs that do not have sharp thorns.
You should avoid the fashionable tendency to build a garage into the structure of the house, and even more so to enter the living space through it, since as a result, the negative energy accumulated in the garage penetrates into the rooms.
- Building a house according to Feng Shui also rejects another popular tradition of installing a swimming pool in the basement located under a residential building. This should not be done under any circumstances, because after some time the humidity in the house will be too high, which will immediately affect the health of the people living in it. It is better to build a pool outside the walls of a residential building. It is possible to build a bathhouse under the house, but you should not just place it under the bedroom or living room.
- The practice of Feng Shui, dating back over five thousand years, recommends building houses from environmentally friendly and natural materials: wood and stone. Ideally, the most suitable for construction can be considered materials produced in the same area in which the house is being built, since this factor is a source of additional natural energy, beneficial both for the building itself and for the health of the people living in it.
The use of reinforced concrete and large amounts of metal in the construction of a house is extremely undesirable, since the inhabitants of such a home will constantly be surrounded by electric fields, which is unsafe for health.
The driveway to the house should be winding; it cannot be laid directly to the threshold: along its path you can place a miniature pond, a fountain or several small flower beds.
A house built taking into account all the requirements of Feng Shui will allow a person to merge very harmoniously with the environment, which cannot but affect his mental comfort and excellent well-being, and this, in turn, inevitably entails personal well-being and career success.

In addition to the arrangement of each individual sector, it is very important that they harmonize well with each other. According to the Feng Shui rules of the site, each sector should be limited by small paths, so that different energies will not overlap with each other.
In addition, it is very important to pay attention to the location and shape of the main road leading to the house. As a rule, most often this road stretches across the entire site from the gate to the door itself. However, according to the rules of Feng Shui, it should have a slightly curved shape. In addition, the road leading to the house should under no circumstances narrow, because... Because of this, positive energy may not get inside the structure at all.
In Feng Shui, it is believed that symmetrical lines and shapes cause stagnation of moving energies. To avoid this, you should not lay out the road with even square slabs. If it is not possible to lay paths with natural stone or paving stones, lay the slabs offset, creating winding patterns or “pigtail” patterns.
If you want to get a rich harvest of vegetables and fruits from your plot, you want to feel light and at ease, saturate your body and soul with the natural energy of your garden, relax and work at your dacha with pleasure, then design your plot at your dacha according to the rules and laws of Feng Shui.
Feng Shui is an ancient science about how not to lose harmony with the natural world, which, feeding a person with its energy, gives him the strength to live and enjoy every day. Moving away from it, confining himself within the four walls of his home, a person loses a great source of energy. As a result, all he can do is dream of happiness, health and material well-being. But by continuing to strive for these values, we place all our hopes only on ourselves, while the forces of nature could help us achieve our goal.
The word “feng shui” comes from ancient times, when man identified two main forces for himself - wind and water. The wind promised coolness and a good harvest, food for livestock, and water - moisture for the fields. Feng is the “wind”, a flow of energy that permeates the house and garden, and this influence can be both positive and negative. Shui is “water” that should water the earth.
Modern supporters of this teaching believe that much of what a person strives for can be achieved with the optimal arrangement of objects in the house and balanced landscape design in the garden. If everything in the room is arranged in accordance with the principles of Feng Shui, and the garden is laid out without taking these rules into account, then a contradiction will certainly arise between the positive energy of the house and the negative energy of the garden. As a result, the energy balance will be disrupted, which will affect the health and success of the inhabitants of the house.
Feng Shui in the country house and garden
For positive chi energy to fill your garden, it must have three components: mountains, water and plants. Of course, it is impossible to move some kind of mountain range into the garden, but you can create its symbol in the form of raised flower beds and tall trees. Water is a symbol of material well-being. This means that there must certainly be a stream, a fountain or some other body of water in the garden. All elements of the garden should be harmoniously combined with each other; one of them should not be allowed to dominate over the others.
Feng Shui rules for a garden plot look like this:
✓ one of the basic principles of Feng Shui states that everything should be natural, look as if it has existed for a good hundred years;
✓ the center of the garden should be free, avoid planting tall trees or shrubs here;
✓ be afraid of symmetry in everything: when planting plants, arranging elements that perform decorative functions;
✓ try not to lay paths at a sharp sharp angle, as this can direct negative sha energy towards a person. Paths and alleys should be a smooth soft line;
✓ avoid “flat” gardens. Height changes and multi-level plantings improve the movement of qi;
✓ wealth and prosperity are symbolized by the far left corner of the garden. To attract qi there, plant a plant with red or blue flowers there. The far right corner of the garden is responsible for the family, so pink, white and red flowers belong here. The center of the garden is a symbol of glory, so arrange an arch here that will attract chi energy.
To take into account the principles of Feng Shui in the garden, stand in the center of the plot and determine the cardinal directions (table).
FENG SHUI AND CARDINAL CARDS
End of the table
Cardinal directions | Symbolic mapping | Garden elements in this part of the garden |
Harmony, new plans, health, family, healing | Water elements, planting fruit trees, herbs (including medicinal ones). Avoid white flowers | |

The goal of applying the techniques of the Chinese art of harmonizing space, Feng Shui, is to achieve an ideal balance between man and nature. This ultimately helps to attract positive energy “qi”, and it brings wealth, fame, good luck, and health. Feng Shui of the site will allow you to easily achieve all these benefits.
Even without using Feng Shui techniques, a summer resident on a personal plot becomes closer to nature, feeling its beneficial effects on mood and health. And by applying the simple rules of Feng Shui, you can not only achieve harmony, but even to some extent influence your own destiny, because your garden is a projection of your inner world, and the connection between you is two-way.
A compass is the main working tool when arranging a garden according to Feng Shui. To determine the zones in the garden, you need to mentally divide the plot into 8 parts according to the cardinal directions. In this case, the entrance to the personal plot should be from the north. If this requirement cannot be satisfied, then we mentally note that the north is where the entrance is, and we arrange the sectors regardless of the cardinal directions. Now let's take a closer look at which sector is responsible for what.
Feng Shui house layout
- When planning a future building, you should know that the geometric shape of its foundation from the point of view of Feng Shui should look like a rectangle or square.
- The interior space of the house should be such that the beneficial energy of qi can flow freely from one room to another, which means that the house should not have confusing and long corridors, small rooms, many partitions and winding passages. The house should have a lot of space, but huge rooms that occupy the entire floor space are also undesirable.
- When planning a room, you cannot place window and door openings on the same level, since the positive energy entering the house will immediately leave it, exiting through the windows.
The same rule applies to interior passages and internal doors.
- The entrance door to the home should be located in the central part of the facade and go directly to the street, since it is this layout of the main entrance that promotes harmony and energy balance. A geometric displacement of the door from the central axis of the facade is undesirable, as this will contribute to an energy imbalance. Feng Shui practice strongly advises against placing the front door opposite the toilet or bathroom, since positive energy will immediately leave the house along with the wastewater.
- The room intended for the kitchen should not be a walk-through area. It is advisable that the windows in it face north, since cooking in a room flooded with bright sunlight (if the kitchen windows face south) can cause discomfort to the housewife standing at a hot stove.
- The size of the bedroom, in which a person spends a significant part of his life, must be such that the beneficial energy of qi can circulate freely in it and at the same time not be wasted. In other words, this room should not be too large, but not too small, and also devoid of very sharp corners. The presence of a window (facing east or southeast) in the bedroom is mandatory.
It is best to locate the bedroom in the most remote part of the house, equipping it with a separate bathroom. - The children's room (for reasons of psychological comfort and safety of the child) should be located near the parents' bedroom. It should be quite spacious and safe, so there can be no talk of any sharp traumatic protrusions in this room. In general, the Chinese are convinced that sharp corners injure the human biofield. The children's room is located in the center of the house.
- The bathroom room should be comfortable, spacious and have at least some natural light, since the rays of sunlight penetrating into it (which have a bactericidal effect) will destroy unfavorable microflora. It is desirable if the small window has a southern orientation and faces south or southeast.

- The living room is a formal room in which not only all family members gather, but also many guests, so it should be quite spacious and bright. The size of the living room should make it possible to divide this room into several zones (by the fireplace, in front of the TV, before going out to the balcony), in which your guests and family members can comfortably accommodate without interfering with each other and without interfering with the circulation of life-giving qi energy.
Useful tips on how and what to do with your child at home
- If your child is under 5 years old, he will definitely like this method, and you can relax for half an hour or do household chores.

Feng Shui at home for money
The wealth zone (according to the Bagua grid) is located in the southeastern sector of the house. You can activate it in the following ways:
1. Attract the energy of water and water symbolism.
- A very effective way to attract wealth into your home is an aquarium in which goldfish swim. According to Feng Shui requirements, it is desirable that there be at least nine of them, and one of the fish must certainly be black (this fish is destined to take on the negative energy present in the house).
- The wealth zone is often activated with the help of artificial fountains, filling the room with a pleasant murmur.
- To attract the energy of wealth, photographs or pictures depicting beautiful bodies of water (lakes, rivers, seas), waterfalls or fountains are quite suitable.
- House owners who want to get rich can use water charged in a special way to activate the energy of wealth. To do this, during the new moon, a jar of clean water is left on the window. Charged water is used by all family members when washing their faces and for spraying their wallets.
2. Since the element of the wealth sector is wood, it should be used to activate the corresponding energy. It doesn’t matter at all what kind of trees are used for this: live or artificial.
- You can place a pot with a money tree in the wealth zone, hanging several coins from its branches.
- Instead of a living plant, you can place souvenir trees made with your own hands from salt dough, beads, beads or golden wire in the wealth zone. To more effectively attract wealth, their branches are hung with coins and paper bills, rolled up like pounds.
3. In the practice of Feng Shui, there are a huge number of talismans used to attract wealth into the home.
- The most popular symbol is the figurine of Hotei - a cheerful fat man depicted with a bag of gold coins and money in his hands.
- The second most popular talisman placed in the wealth zone is a toad holding a gold coin in its mouth. She can bring wealth to the house only if she is placed so that she looks inside the room, and not at the window or door. It is believed that in this case, wealth can “ride away” from home.
- The zone of wealth is unthinkable without another traditional talisman: a bunch of Chinese coins held together with a red ribbon. It is often dropped into a fountain or fish tank, carried in a wallet, or placed under a money tree pot.
Feng Shui at home to attract your soulmate
Attracting a soul mate is a task that can be accomplished by the zone of love and marriage, located in the southwestern sector of the house. Traditionally, the love zone is decorated in brown, yellow and beige tones. Despite the fact that the ruling element of this zone is Earth, the action of this sector can be activated with the help of the element of Fire, which gave birth to the Earth.
- When activating the love zone, it is necessary to use bright objects of red, pink and orange colors with pointed outlines. You can use pictures of flames or the sun.
- To designate a love zone, it is not at all necessary to paint it red: you can limit yourself to adding a few bright objects, change the color of the bedspread, curtains, or simply use traditional Chinese lanterns.
- In the love zone, you need to periodically light two red candles: this will enhance positive energy.
In the love sector, metal objects are unacceptable. When choosing talismans, it is better to give preference to crystal or stone figurines.
- The love zone must be decorated with paired objects and traditional Chinese talismans. The most popular of them are paired figurines of mandarin ducks, elephants and swans, which in reality have earned a reputation as reliable partners who create strong married couples.
- In the zone of love and marriage there should be no indoor plants or pictures of trees, since the element of Fire is destructive to them.
Watch the video tutorial Love Talismans according to Feng Shui:
- Those family members who want to get married as soon as possible should place a postcard with the image of two wedding rings in the love zone, not forgetting to include a joint photo in it.
- Those who have not yet met their chosen one are recommended to place heart-shaped objects in the love sector.
- Sometimes, attracting love into your life is as simple as getting rid of old love letters or mementos.
Feng Shui house number
The practice of Feng Shui has always attached great importance to the role of numbers in human life. The number of a house can have a great influence on the fate of the people living in it. Since it is not in our power to change the numbering of houses, we can only calculate the number under the vibration of which the inhabitants of a particular house are located. It is necessary to know this in order to neutralize the negative effects of vibration in the event of an unfavorable situation.
To determine a house number according to Feng Shui, you simply need to add up all the numbers in its address. If the house number has a letter, you need to find out its serial number in the alphabet and add it to the house number. By adding all the numbers one by one, we get a single-digit number, which will emit a certain vibration. Information about the meaning of each number can be found on the Internet.
Flowers for the home according to Feng Shui
According to Feng Shui experts, flowers in the house can improve the energy of any home if you choose them correctly and care for them accordingly.
Healthy and well-groomed flowers are a source of positive energy. The influence of plants that bloom or bear fruit profusely is especially beneficial.
Useful plants for the home according to Feng Shui:
- A unique indicator of the energetic atmosphere in the house is tradescantia, the leaves of which begin to turn yellow and fall off if too much negative energy has accumulated in the home.
- A very useful plant is geranium, which has strong energy and distributes essential oils throughout the house, which have a beneficial effect on metabolism in the human body.
- Fern is an active absorber of negative energy.
- Ficus can be considered a true peacemaker plant, which is capable of reconciling family members by neutralizing their anger and aggression.
Favorable flowers for home:
- The myrtle tree will fill the house with the energy of love and prosperity, and will also strengthen relationships within the family.
- A fat plant planted with your own hands will bring wealth to your home and strengthen financial prosperity.
- Bamboo is an excellent absorber and converter of negative energy. It is believed that by passing through the hollow bamboo trunk, negative energy becomes positive. But according to Feng Shui, where should you place bamboo so that it attracts good luck and wealth? Feng Shui experts say that in order to attract good luck, indoor bamboo should be placed in the south-eastern part of the room, while it should be carefully looked after, watered on time and do not forget to communicate with it and tell it about all your desires. In order for a useful plant to enhance its properties and attract wealth to itself, you need to place a three-toed frog next to it.
- Lemon tree: when planted in a children's room, it fills the air with a lot of beneficial phytoncides, and also helps kids grow inquisitive and active.
Southeast
This is the money corner. Oddly enough, dandelions work most effectively in this sector. A large tree growing in this zone will also have a beneficial effect on the growth of wealth. Vegetables that should grow here are zucchini and yellow peppers. This sector must have a fountain as a symbol of the endless flow of material resources.
This is the center of luck or spiritual center. It is best if the house itself is in the center, but since the rules of Feng Shui are unlikely to inspire you to rebuild, it means that in this place we lay a round flowerbed and plant flowers of all colors and shapes on it. The main thing is that the flowerbed “blooms” from early spring until late autumn, constantly attracting good luck.
By carefully observing the animals, insects and plants in your garden, you can easily determine which area requires intervention. If ants appear in large numbers, it means that the energy is contaminated and it is necessary: firstly, to remove the insects, and secondly, to add a plant suitable for this sector. And the appearance of frogs, lizards and birds signal the harmony of all objects in the garden.
There are some plants that you simply must have in your garden. For example, viburnum. Planted at the gate or near the front door, it will protect the house from envy and evil. It is advisable to decorate the corners of the house with climbing plants so that negative energy does not accumulate there. Ivy, kobeya, and morning glory are suitable for this.
Primroses should be a must in the garden: crocuses, snowdrops. Blooming before anyone else, they attract the energy of awakening into the garden and charge everything with vigor after winter hibernation.
Feng Shui rules dictate that all fruit trees are mainly planted above the fence in order to block the entry of negative energy from the outside with their crowns. Both according to the rules of gardening and according to the rules of Feng Shui, they should be at a distance of 5-6 m from each other.
By applying these simple tips, you can turn your garden plot into a piece of paradise, and make the life of your household more harmonious and successful.
The ancient Chinese art of Feng Shui is used for zoning not only the garden area, but also an apartment, room or other premises.
The basis for planning a site according to Feng Shui is a bagua mirror, which can be used to determine specific zones of the selected territory.
According to Feng Shui, any area has the following zones:
- Northern part - quarry area
- The northeastern part is a zone of intellect and spiritual growth
- Northwestern part - travel zone
- Southern part - glory zone
- The southeastern part is a zone of wealth
- The southwestern part is a zone of family relationships and marriage
- The western part is the zone that is responsible for the future, children and creativity
- The eastern part is the zone responsible for the past and family
So, you have become familiar with the zones of the art of Feng Shui, now you need to correctly determine the location of these zones. As a rule, the entrance doors to the house (or the entrance gate to the summer cottage) are installed in the northern part. In order to determine the remaining zones, you need to use a bagua mirror.
The bagua mirror is a small octagonal mirror on which all the necessary cardinal directions are marked. All you need is to sketch the area you want to plan and place a mirror in the center, which will determine the exact location of all zones.
We draw your attention to the fact that the sketch of the area (or room) must have exact proportions and scale, otherwise it will not be possible to reliably determine the functional areas. It is best to use an existing room or plot plan.
After you have identified all the necessary zones, we move on to arranging the garden according to Feng Shui with your own hands.
Feng Shui house color
Feng Shui experts say that all colors are capable of emitting one of five types of energy:
- The energy of water.
- Energy of the earth.
- The energy of wood.
- Metal energy.
- The energy of fire.
Since each type of energy is responsible for a very specific area of human life, with the help of colors in the interior of the house you can solve many problems that periodically arise in one area or another of life. To use this Feng Shui tool when choosing the color palette for your home, you need to become familiar with the meaning of each color:
- Black activates mystical, unknown forces and symbolizes the inner world that is in a state of hibernation. A large amount of this color may indicate depression.
- Green means abundance, prosperity, development, indicates balance and inner harmony, as well as the presence of untapped resources.
- Red is the color of passion, excitement, vital dynamics, strong will. Using this color promotes physical strength and can stimulate appetite.
- Yellow stimulates the development of intelligence and the desire to achieve success in scientific activities, and promotes the ability to establish contacts with people.
- Blue is the color of inspiration, inner peace, contentment and self-control.
- White is the color of modesty, humility and purity. Using this color can promote spiritual growth and balance.
The element of fire in your garden
The teaching of Feng Shui divides all objects in the world into five elements: Wood, Earth, Fire, Water and Metal. In this article we will talk about the fire element and its implementation in the garden. The main color of fire is red and its shades up to orange and burgundy. We usually use red colors and other symbols to bring some changes into our existence, add energy and enrich our lives. You need to be careful with flowers and objects of the fire element: if you like peace and maintaining balance, then it is better to fill the garden with softer flowers of the water or earth elements. But if you don’t have enough events, then fire is what you need.
Feng Shui paintings for the home
With the help of paintings, posters and placards, you can significantly improve the energy of your home, since they influence not only the emotional state and well-being of the people in the room, but also create a certain atmosphere in it.
- Dreary landscapes, paintings depicting water or predatory animals are completely unsuitable for the bedroom. Here it is better to use paintings made in bright and rich tones of a warm color scheme.
- When planning a move, an important trip, or dreaming of moving up the career ladder, you need to activate the perspective zone with the help of road-themed paintings.
- When dreaming of your own house or apartment, place an image of your dream home or a couple of interior photographs in the perspective zone.
- To activate your office, you can use a sunny cityscape with a well-developed perspective and high, clear skies.
Feng Shui at home for good luck
Attracting luck as a kind of positive energy that can bring success, health and prosperity to each family member is quite within the capabilities of Feng Shui practice.
Remember a few simple rules:
- Make the entrance to your home inviting by clearing the threshold of a lot of unnecessary items: this will clear the way for the flow of good luck energy.
- In front of the entrance to the house there should not be a single tree or pillar that can cut the flow of positive energy in two and provoke the emergence of negative energy.
- The doors to the toilet and bathroom, as well as the toilet lid, should be kept closed so that the energy of good luck does not leave your home.
- When planning the placement of your home, you should ensure that the sharp corners of neighboring buildings do not overlook it. When arranging furniture indoors, try to ensure that sharp corners are not directed towards your workspace or your bed.
- Figurines of one or several elephants must be located at the front door. With their trunk they attract good luck into the house, bring happiness and protect the household. They also attract monetary success to the family if they stand on the window. An elephant figurine can bring good luck not only to adults, but also to children, if it stands on a table in a children's room, turning its mighty trunk towards them. In this way, the elephant will improve your child's performance.

Northwest
This is where the teacher and travel area is located. This is the “male” sector. He must be distinguished by restraint and severity. No flowers, only trees and bushes. Plants with a masculine name, such as peach, apricot, jasmine, are suitable for this zone. To enhance the possibility of travel in this zone, you should plant a plant that is associated with the place where you want to visit. If you need help, advice or a patron, then in this sector you need to build a bird feeder. Metal products, for example, forged gratings, would also be appropriate here.
This is the career growth sector. Ideally, the entrance to the house is located in this sector. You can activate the career zone with the help of multi-colored delphiniums and hyacinths. In general, career growth should proceed according to the principle “slowly but surely,” and therefore this zone does not need strong activation. An evenly trimmed lawn and a few blackcurrant bushes are enough for everything to go according to this principle.
