Sleeping beds and bedrooms are extremely important places in terms of feng shui. If arranged correctly, they can stimulate wealth and good luck. There are 3 things Feng Shui experts recommend placing at the head of the bed to bring prosperity to the homeowners.
Feng Shui coin
This bronze piece is not an ordinary coin but a Five Emperors coin. They are cast in the style of “round outside, square inside”, “heavenly appearance, human harmony”, like heaven and earth, they are the embodiment of the ancient Chinese theory of five elements.
According to Feng Shui, it has a large amount of Yang energy, not only can ward off evil spirits, but also has a strong significance for the absorption of wealth.
The ancestors also have clear instructions on how to hang the Five Emperor’s coin, generally on the left side of the bed. In Feng Shui, there is a saying: Blue Dragon on the left, White Tiger on the right, Blue Dragon gold pagoda is also the emperor’s position that we often refer to, who doesn’t want to bring a bit of palace atmosphere for themselves? Besides dispelling evil spirits and making money, you can also avoid the tricks of bad people in the workplace.
Bedside shelf
A bedside shelf helps us place and store many things such as water glasses, phones, glasses, etc. Not only that, it also has a decorative function for the room.
According to Feng Shui experts, you should place 2 bedside shelves on both sides of the bed to create harmony, bring a sense of balance, thereby bringing luck and wealth, helping the homeowner to prosper exponentially. Moreover, when the bedside shelves are combined as a pair, they can also regulate the emotions of husband and wife, making the family relationship in order.
Hanging a big gourd
This is the most common custom in rural China, some people place a big gourd, some people use a red string to hang a small gourd. First of all, the gourd must be opened, otherwise it is useless.
In the belief of ancient people, the gourd will bring a very festive feeling. At the same time, when we look at the pictographs in the past, these two characters naturally mean good or bad.
Regarding the position of hanging the gourd, we need to judge based on the specific location, which is called “good position” in Feng Shui. For example, if your house faces the South and the North, the good positions are Southwest, West, Northwest, and Northeast; if facing the North and South, the good positions are Southeast, South, East, and North.
2 items to avoid placing at the head of the bed
Statues of deities, Buddhas
Some people believe that placing statues of deities, Buddhas at the head of the bed will bring a sense of safety and protection. However, according to Feng Shui, this is a taboo. From the religious point of view, placing statues of deities, Buddhas in this position also shows disrespect. Placing these objects at the head of the bed according to Feng Shui is a way to “hide” fortune and luck, making the homeowner face difficulties on the path of career and profession.
Reflection mirror
Placing a mirror at the head of the bed or opposite the bed is a great taboo in Feng Shui. It can easily affect the spirit and health of family members, especially the elderly and the weak.
