Front door should not face the toilet
Energy enters through the front door; a directly visible toilet leaks wealth and harms health. Add a screen or keep the toilet door closed.

Three taboos for the bed
Avoid headboard against a window (no support), bed facing a mirror (startle spirits), and a beam pressing overhead.
Solid wall behind your seat
A wall behind the chair represents reliable backers. A window or walkway behind invites gossip and reversals — hang a mountain landscape if needed.
Cashier and safe placement
Place at the annual wealth star, not directly opposite the entrance. A few crystals or gold ingots inside enhance the effect.
Aquarium positioning
Place at the era's wealth sector. Auspicious fish counts: 1, 4, 6, 8, 9. Avoid bedrooms, kitchens or directly opposite altars. Not for those whose chart dislikes Water.
Sharp-corner sha and remedies
Outside corners, eaves and road thrusts are sha-qi (negative energy) — risk of accidents. Use a convex mirror or a Qilin-on-Bagua plaque, or arrange an on-site audit.
Wealth-attracting indoor plants
Money plant, Pachira, lucky bamboo and Clivia attract wealth. Choose round, lush leaves. Cacti are unsuitable for living rooms or bedrooms.
Tai Sui appeasement and yearly stars
Those clashing with the annual Tai Sui should appease at a temple early in the year. Avoid construction at the 5-Yellow and 2-Black sectors; avoid red items at the 3-Jade sector.
Feng Shui is highly individual. Tips above are general guidance — book an on-site audit for tailored remedies.
