The living room serves as a central hub in any home, acting as the space for receiving guests, relaxing, and entertaining. Since this area is frequently used by family members, its feng shui can significantly impact your well-being. To ensure positive energy flows through your living room, avoid the following feng shui pitfalls.

Case1: Sofa Facing a Corner

Interior corners tend to generate turbulent energy in feng shui, making it best to avoid placing furniture directly against them. When a sofa is positioned to face a corner, it can create what’s known as a "sharp horn" or "flying knife," leading to issues like physical injury or even bleeding within the household.

The ideal sofa placement involves several considerations. First, place the sofa in the auspicious direction of your home. Generally, for a living room with the main entrance facing north, placing the sofa at a 45-degree diagonal from the door toward the south ensures beneficial energy flow. Sitting in this position can prevent negative influences from affecting your wealth and career. Additionally, the sofa should always have a solid wall behind it for support—a concept known as "having a back." This setup ensures stability and protection. Lastly, opt for a U-shaped sofa design. The concave shape helps accumulate positive energy and is believed to be more prosperous than traditional linear arrangements.

  

Case2: Furniture Under a Beam

Having a structural beam overhead can create negative feng shui, potentially affecting the mental and physical health of those sitting beneath it. This applies not only to actual beams but also to other suspended objects like air conditioners, hanging cabinets, and chandeliers. Such placements may lead to headaches, nervousness, and even more severe issues like paralysis or poor decision-making.

To counteract this, consider these solutions: First, install a false ceiling during renovation to conceal the beam, minimizing its visual and energetic impact. Alternatively, if remodeling isn't feasible, place vibrant potted plants under the beam on your coffee table. The natural energy of plants can help alleviate the pressure caused by the overhead object.
