While mapping a household's energy field and aligning someone with it takes years of study to develop, there are some simple guidelines one can use to yield smaller benefits...
Use red with caution as it's associated with promotion of argumentative energies.
Best if square or rectangular. Don't have bed facing the door directly. Avoid having beams, pipes, skylights or sloping ceilings above the bed. Keep the bedroom for sleep and romance only.
Avoid placing the sofa in line with the door. Don't put shelves above where you'll sit. Keep well ventilated and hoover often.
Fix anything that breaks quickly and properly.
Front door should be large, with bright brass door furniture. Approach should be uncluttered. Planters on either side of the front door, or guardians such as lions or fu dogs, produce healthy chi.
Avoid clutter. File it, deal with it or bin it. Desk should have good view of the door with solid wall behind. Avoid right-angled corners on the desk surface. Don't have a window behind or so close you can be distracted. Curtains are preferable to roller blinds and horizontal slatted blinds. Go for uplighting not fluorescent light.
Avoid excessively fiery colours. A round edged table is better than sharp corners and angles. Avoid pictures of dead animals, battles or sinking ships. Install mirrors where they can reflect the food.
Babies and youngsters need rectangular rooms and have their beds with head and one side against walls. Teenagers can have more adventurous irregularly shaped rooms. Don't place beds under beams, sloping ceilings, shelves or cupboards. Avoid bunk beds, the bottom is cramped and the top insecure. Furniture should be rounded. Curtains are better than blinds. Have at least one big plant with soft leaves. Avoid aggressive pictures.
Decorate in strong Earth element colours. Soil pipes should be concealed. Mirrors should be large enough to reflect the space around an individual and the immediate image should not be divided or split as with mirror tiles or some cabinet doors.
Gentle curves produce gentle energy. Set aside special areas for children and a quieter spot to enhance relationships. Water, introduced under direction, and wildlife should be encouraged.
