The Bagua is
most used for general living areas that everyone in the home spends time in. The
easiest way to begin is to use a written grid that is evenly divided into 9 spaces
like the Bagua chart. Fill in each space with the directions. Then, stand in the
centre of the main floor with a compass to find where each area falls into the
direction grid. By using a written grid you will avoid having to rediscover which
direction the dining room falls into over and over again.
Remember that
areas that have flushing water, such as kitchen, bathroom, laundry room, are void
for energy. If a direction you would like to enhance falls into a bathroom, simply
stand in the centre of your living room and enhance that direction in your living
room.
The centre of your home can be the physical centre, or what you
would consider the heart of your home. To you, this might be the dining room table.
The heart of the home is wherever the family spends time together sharing love.
