Bedroom Feng Shui rules for the location of objects and furniture in the interior

"Feng Shui" - this name is known to people since ancient times, when for people the most powerful forces were the energy of water and wind."Fen" is a stream that wind blows overhead, and "shui" - water that is in the ground and feeds it. The history of science "Feng Shui" totals more than 3000 thousand years. Signs of its use were discovered in the territory of modern China during the excavation of cultural layers dating back to the Bronze Age.

At present, there are many schools that differ in that some of them combine "feng shui" with palmistry, astrology or divination. In many Western countries, this science has become a real entertainment and design industry, having lost its original philosophical purpose. But, ultimately, all the existing trends and schools related to "Feng Shui" are aimed at creating harmony between man and his environment.

If a bedroom is planned for Feng Shui, the rules for its arrangement are also directly related to the harmonization of the person's stay in this room. They have several important points that should be followed if the goal is to achieve the desired results.

To understand the basic symbols of this science, on which it relies, you need to know how they are called and what they mean. For example, everyone has heard the name "yin" and "yang," but not many imagine that these are energy flows that interact with each other and can be both opposite and continuing each other."Yan" is the energy of creation, and "yin" is destruction.

Another important concept, without which the science of "Feng Shui" can not exist and be explained, is the "qi" energy, which includes a variety of different meanings, but always a positive factor, no matter what area it is concerned with. If to formulate its definition is simpler, then we can say that "qi" is a vital force that gives energy and motion.

Bedroom is a special area of ​​any home

Not everyonefully is that almost a third of life a person spends in the bedroom, in a dream. If you take the average life expectancy of 70 years, you can calculate that the annual sleep is 4 months, and throughout his life runs as much as 23 years. Such an interesting fact gives this room a special significance. And it is no less important than other rooms in the house, since the positive energy of "chi" has an impact on the body not only during the waking of a person, but also in a dream.

The bedroom is a special, so to say intimate zone, intended for physical and psychological rest, so the atmosphere in it should be soothing and conducive to relaxation. For this reason, the decoration of its interior should be dominated by pastel colors, soft lighting and flowing forms related to the beginning of the "yin".If a person, waking up, feels apathy, or if his intimate life requires stimulation, then it is necessary, in order to achieve equilibrium, to add to the design elements of wakefulness related to the "yan".

The location of the bedroom in the house or apartment

From where the bedroom will be located in the house or apartment, the influence of positive energy "qi" largely depends. Of course, it will be difficult to change anything in the current plan of the city apartment, but, based on the recommendations, it is possible to try to equip the bedroom with the right way, from the point of view of the "Feng Shui" way.

• The northern area of ​​the apartment promotes a calm and deep sleep, which means that a person will receive a full rest after everyday troubles and stressful situations. Unfavorable is the layout of the bedroom for those who experience loneliness - a side with which the Sun can never be seen, can aggravate the feeling of isolation from the world and lead to apathy. The northern layout of the bedroom is also not suitable for young, active people, since their energy can be inhibited, and such relaxation will be completely superfluous.
• The north-east direction is unfavorable for the bedroom. It is influenced by the energy of "qi", which in this case has a motivating, active nature, which is too sharp for a resting place. The north-east will adversely affect people with a sleep disorder or health problems. It is not recommended to arrange children's rooms in this area, since children who sleep in such a zone acquire the ability to influence the life of their parents. In addition to this direction, for children's bedrooms is not suitable and the north-west, as it will provoke too high unhealthy activity of children.
• The northwest is the ideal place for an adult bedroom that has reached a balance and stability in this life stage.
• The eastern part of the house or apartment is perfect for young purposeful people who are in search of their place in life. The exciting energy of the east will help to realize and expand your horizons.
• The south-eastern region of housing is recommended for those who are engaged in business and seeks to climb the corporate ladder. The energy of this direction is similar to the eastern region, but it is more balanced and creative, having constructive actions and working with partners.
• The South is the optimal place for young people who seek a passionate relationship, since this zone is especially favorable for active intimate life. But it does not suit for a sound full rest and sleep.
• The western region contributes to the enhancement of pleasure and romance in personal life, but will not contribute to success in business or career.
• The south-western part of the housing has unbalanced energies, causing a state of anxiety and uncertainty, so it is unfavorable for the device in her children's or teenage room. If the bedroom is already located in this area, then it is necessary to allocate in it favorable for the installation of the bed area.

In addition, it is desirable to place the bedroom away from the kitchen and the toilet, in a separate, non-communicating room, otherwise there will be no qualitative rest in it. Even if you know for sure that no one will enter it, there will be a tension on the subconscious level, which does not allow you to relax.

The room must have the right square or rectangular shape - this will promote peace and tranquility.

You can not have the bedroom door opposite any other door - it threatens with constant conflicts in the family.

If this factor can not be avoided, it is recommended that one of the doors hang a curtain of beads, bamboo rings or other natural material that will brake negative energy.

Bed arrangement in the bedroom

The main piece of furniture in the bedroom is always a bed. And the quality of the rest will depend on how thoughtfully it is placed. There are a number of rules that need to be followed when choosing the location of its installation.

• The bed can not be placed opposite the front door. Such an arrangement is associated with "feng shui" with death, as in China it was traditionally similarly laid the deceased before his burial. The correct location of the bed is shown in Figures 5 and 6.In this case, a small bedroom is presented, but even in it one can find the optimal location of the sleeping place.

bedroom

• For many people, it is extremely important to see who enters the bedroom. In this case, if the area allows room, the bed can be placed diagonally.

• . It can be clearly seen on the diagram No. 2 that there is a rectangular object in the legs of the bed - it can be a bedside table or ottoman. It is necessary in such a diagonal arrangement of the bed to deflect the energy flows that go through the door, which will interfere with the normal sleep of the people who rest.

• It is undesirable for the bed to stand with the headboard at the back of the window. People sleeping on such a bed will be prone to outbursts of anger and irritability. It is best to set the bed head to the wall. If this can not be done, then on the window you need to hang tight curtains, which for the night must always be closed.
• If two people are sleeping on the bed, it is desirable that around it there is enough free space on three sides.
• Sleep will be restless and heavy if the bed is set close to the door or just behind it.
• Sometimes in the room set two beds, and one person has to sleep head to the feet of the other. Such an arrangement is unfavorable for the former in that it will interfere with his career and in achieving business success.
• If the bed is installed against a wall that separates the bedroom from the toilet, this factor will negatively affect the health of the sleeper. In this situation, the bed is recommended to be rearranged to another wall or in the middle of the room.

• It is undesirable to choose a bed for wheels on the bedroom, since this design symbolizes instability and leads to restless sleep. In addition, it may even be remotely resembling a hospital gurney, which also gives negative messages at a subconscious level.

• not recommended to put a bed under the slant of the ceiling joists, or that is in plain text - it threatens to ruin, health problems, or divorce. In this case, if it is not possible to move the bed to another area of ​​the bedroom, you can correct the situation by installing a stretch ceiling and disguising these heavy pressing elements.

• Reliability and strength of the bed symbolizes the stability in the relationship, so the bed should not sway and creak. Ideally, this piece of furniture should be installed so that it rests against the wall with a headboard. You can set the bed so that its side is pressed against the wall, but this indicates that the one who sleeps on it prefers a bachelor position. If the goal is to have a harmonious relationship with a partner, or if you plan to find your other half, the bed should be positioned so that a convenient approach to it from both sides is provided.

Shape of the headboard

An important role in "Feng Shui" is played by the shape of the headboard. This is explained by the fact that each figure corresponds to one of the five elements defined by this science, which affect the personal qualities of a person, contributing or adversely affecting life success.

On sale you can find beds of different designs, but it is recommended, first of all, to pay attention to the simplicity of the forms. Neutral to the effect, the beds will be smooth, that is, without relief patterns, with rounded corners that do not interfere with the unobstructed movement of the "qi" energy throughout the room.

• Oval and semicircular backs of beds are well suited for successful work of businessmen or officials. The element of this form is "Metal".

• Square backs will bring success to people working in the professions - the element "Earth".

• Wavy backs are favorable for people of creative professions - the element "Water".

• backrest. The triangular backs for the "Fire" element are good for those who are active and do not like to sleep for a long time.

• The backs are asymmetrical, having irregular shaped figures or symmetrical, but delicate execution - the element "Air", suitable for romantics and, people professionally engaged in art.

In addition to the basic five forms, there are also combined variants in which several figured elements are combined:

• A double backrest bend is suitable for a bed on which two people sleep. In this case, the form will indicate the harmony of the relationship, and not a split personality.

• The back of the bed, in which one side is lower than the other and thus forms a gentle bend, is called the "Feng Shui" "Dragon and Phoenix".Acquiring such a bed you need to follow the rule - a woman should sleep on the side where the back is lower.

• The backrest, which has a bend in the middle and aligned at the edges - is an excellent option for people of any profession, since it has the harmony of several elements.

• The four-poster bed is an old-fashioned option, but it is still popular today because it creates a feeling of peace and security.

• The shape of the headboard in the form of a washbasin, like oval or semicircular, is good for people engaged in business.

In addition to the form of the backrest, the bed should correspond to the following qualities - comfort, stability, reliability.

It is undesirable that under the bed there is a large space, in which usually with time inevitably "settle" different boxes and suitcases. This can not be done in any case, for the reason that the accumulation of things interferes with the intensity of the circulation of positive energy "qi."

Bedroom furniture

• In addition to the bed, there should not be any massive pieces of furniture inside the bedroom, for example, large wardrobes or other closets. If you can not do without them, then they should be built into the wall.
• Do not overcrow the bedroom with a lot of furniture, because the space should be "breathing" and free for positive energies.

• It is recommended to buy furniture for the bedroom with rounded corners. If the furniture has already been purchased, then it must be installed so that its corners are not aimed at the sleeper, otherwise the dream will be restless and the person will not be able to fully relax.
• Bedside tables and tables should never be higher than beds, as this will create an artificial barrier to the flow of energy.

• If it is planned to install a dressing table with a large mirror in the bedroom, then the place for it should be chosen so that people who are sleeping on the bed do not reflect it.

Admissibility and location of

mirrors

Mirrors in "Feng Shui" always played a special role, and in each of the rooms of the house had its own purpose. In the bedroom with this subject of the situation you need to be very careful, since it can be a positive factor, but it can also have an extremely negative impact on the health of a person and on his relationships.

• The mirror should never reflect not only sleeping people on the bed, but also the matrimonial bed itself, because according to the teachings of "Feng Shui" in this case a "double marriage" is created. In addition, the mirror is considered a subject of spying, so in the bedroom there appears to be another "outsider".If this bedroom belongs to a married couple, then the mirror, fixed in the wrong way, can provoke the appearance of one of the spouses of communication on the side. Therefore, such an accessory of the interior, located on one side of the bed, will not contribute to the harmonious development of relations.

• . The mirror reflecting the bed is unfavorable not only for couples, but for any person. It is believed that during sleep, he releases his negative emotions, and their mirror reflects back, so the next morning you can fully wake up completely broken.
• Also an unfavorable place for a mirror in the bedroom - opposite the door. In this case, it does not allow the flow of positive energy to penetrate the room, reflecting it.

Color solution of the interior of the bedroom

Naturally, every owner of the bedroom has his own taste for the color design of the room. However, in order to comply with the rules of "Feng Shui", one must adhere to the interpretation of color shades, according to this science.

Color is a powerful factor of emotional impact on a person. It can be used to support and stimulate or weaken one or another element of the interior. By reducing or increasing the intensity of the design, you can change the situation in the bedroom in accordance with the goal, because the same color, having different shades, can have both negative and positive perception and influence.

• The red color symbolizes the flow of life energy and falls into the field of view before others. Shades of red can stimulate mental activity and concentration, as well as aggravate reactions and cause aggression.

. Therefore, if you plan to equip a bedroom for a quiet rest and bring the general condition of the body to normal, you should not choose a design solution in red tones.

This color can be used, but only as an accent in the overall interior, in the form of a replacement item, as the look gets tired from the intensity of the red shades. For example, it could be a vase, plaid or pillow, as well as a painting in red tones. However, such elements are appropriate only when they harmoniously fit into the gamut of the entire design of the room.

• Yellow is the warm color of the sun, which is one of the sources of life, abundance and wealth from the teachings of Feng Shui, because it is approximated by shades to gold.

Yellow color promotes such states as cheerfulness, good mood, strengthening of hope, sensations of warmth and coziness. He is able to strengthen and supplement the sunlight. They use this design to revitalize the workplace or to "tie" a person to their habitat.

These bright shades are good for the bedroom, but only as additional, as they rather contribute to wakefulness, rather than sleep. If the interior uses soft pastel yellow tones in combination with white and chocolate or with bluish-gray, then in the bedroom you can create a relaxed atmosphere.

• Blue is a symbol of pure sky and water. It helps create a sense of depth and mystery.

It can be characterized as the color of independence and craving for travel. Shades of blue have negative and positive moods, and if they are chosen for the bedroom, then this process needs to be approached with knowledge and very carefully.

To create a sense of peace and stability, do not make the whole bedroom blue. Bright colors can be used in combination with close tones, with calmer colors or even with a white background.

Blue shades refer to cool colors, so they can create a feeling of coolness. This means that you can "get lost" feeling of comfort, which is simply necessary for a normal rest.

• Orange color consists of a combination of red and yellow, so it has the qualities of each of them, that is, life energy and solar heat. Unfortunately, it is not very popular for interior decoration, although it has the ability to influence a person in a positive way:

- to get rid of feelings of loneliness;

- to give attachment to one habitat;

- strengthen the sense of loyalty;

- to promote the desire for spiritual development.

Orange color is more suitable for rooms where there are active actions. In the bedroom you can use it in separate inclusions, that is, in combination with other shades, since its active energy will interfere with the state of restful sleep.

For orange color in the bedroom a good combination will be a calm green tone - they will, as it were, extinguish its brightness, but at the same time retain positive characteristics.

• Green is a combination of yellow and blue shades. It is probably the most favorable environment for human habitation. Vegetable color used in the design of the interior of any room, as it maintains the connection of man with nature. Greens are always associated with spring and growth - in such an environment people feel renewed and active.

This color is quite capable of creating comfortable psychological conditions for calm and rest, restoring strength and health. Therefore, the green color of different shades is fully acceptable for use in the bedroom. Particularly favorable are its pastel colors, on which the rest is rest.

• White color combines all the shades available in nature, and at the same time is associated with purity and innocence. It reflects other colors and remains untainted, so everything bright always causes exceptionally positive emotions.

He also has provocative properties, as he violates the status quo, forcing all the surrounding things to come out. In a word, against its backdrop, the flaws in the interior will not disappear - they will immediately "strike" in the eye.

A completely white bedroom can cause a feeling of anxiety, which will lead to insomnia. This color is good for the interior, as an auxiliary. It fits perfectly with all shades, emphasizing their juiciness and giving the overall design a freshness.

If it's still decided to make the bedroom pure white, then it is recommended to dilute its neutrality with pastel colors and make accents on their design, for example, choose curtains with a colored edge or wallpaper with a soft pattern.

• Black color, unlike white, absorbs other colors, and in many cultures it is considered a mourning. He not only for the bedroom, but also for other living rooms is considered unfavorable in its pure form, but is great for highlighting decor elements and is perfectly combined with all colors.

A completely black bedroom acts depressingly on the psyche. It simply can not get a full rest, and it is possible that in such an environment nightmares will interrupt the normal sleep. After such a night, you can hardly wake up fresh and rested - most likely, a person will not get enough sleep and broken.

Some of them are worth mentioning, since it is these factors that most often raise questions for those who decided to decorate the bedroom according to all the rules of "Feng Shui".

• Do not hang a chandelier or lamp above the bed, especially if this element divides the bed in two, as if dissipating the sleeping pair by the negative energy of its arrangement.

• If a person has set a goal - to end his bachelor life, then you need to remove all singlesubjects, replacing them with paired, associated with family status.

For example, the lamps on the sides of the bed should be two, one on each side. It is also worthwhile to install on the dressing table pair candlesticks, hang on the walls harmonious romantic picture among themselves, etc.

• In the family bedroom should be equipped not only a cozy and quiet environment, which has a rest, but it is necessary to include romantic and intimate notes in the interior.
• In no case should aquariums and decorative elements with flowing water be placed in a sleeping room, for example, pictures simulating waterfalls or small fountains.
• In order for the night to pass quietly, and the person had a good rest, during the daytime, the bedroom should be attracted with positive "qi" energy, pushing the curtains and opening the windows, letting in the room sunlight and fresh air. It is desirable that the sun's rays do not fall on the bed itself, since it is believed that they activate the sleeper, and it will be hard for a person to fall asleep. However, if a new romantic relationship is established, then, perhaps, the daytime charging of the bed with sun rays is exactly what is needed at the moment.
• It is very important to pay attention to the selection of bed linen. It should not have the following images:

- cars or any machinery that causes unintentional anxiety;

- predatory animals that symbolize a hidden danger;

- the color of the laundry should not be black or blue, since such shades lead to heart diseases and depressive conditions;

- red color of the laundry is used only in special cases, as it is too active for everyday use, which will disturb the peace of mind.

• It is recommended to use pictures in the bedroom with a picture of fruit. The most favorable is a garnet - it is a symbol of fertility.

• It is not recommended to equip the restroom and workstation with a computer, TV or music center, especially if placed opposite the bed. This technique has a bad effect on romantic luck. Devices that work from electricity generate a large amount of "yang" energy, which disturbs tranquility and sleep.

In the harmoniously arranged bedroom, the "yin" energy should prevail, which contributes to rest and relaxation. But if you can not do without a workstation in the bedroom, then before turning off to sleep you need to turn off all the appliances and cover them with a cover.

• Experts on "Feng Shui" do not advise placing living plants in the bedroom, as each of them has its own energy, and can make disharmony in the relationship between people. The bedroom is the territory of the "yin", and if it places a plant with the energy "yan", then a contradiction arises that can cause insomnia.

There is a very large number of secrets of the Feng Shui exercise, which are difficult to fully explain in one article. Above are the main rules of this art, which most often excite people who decided to make the bedroom zone harmonious.
