Kua 4 Living Room — Social Energy Toward East

Core placement advice

Kua 4 (Xun · The Wind) hosts and connects through Yan Nian (延年) toward East (E). Anchor the main sofa so seated guests face East — Yan Nian (延年) softens friction in family talk. For Kua 4, social energy lives in East; Kua 9 uses North instead.

Do not back the primary sofa toward Northwest (NW). If the TV wall is fixed on Northwest, add a solid console or heavy backing. Use the East corner for gatherings; park storage on Southeast (SE) rather than Northwest.

For one-on-one talks, angle chairs toward East (E) when East is crowded — still within your lucky set, unlike a generic "south-facing sofa" tip.

Your Kua 4 direction map

• Sheng Qi (生氣): North (N) — wealth & action
• Tian Yi (天醫): South (S) — health & recovery
• Yan Nian (延年): East (E) — relationships
• Fu Wei (伏位): Southeast (SE) — stability
• Jue Ming (絕命): Northwest (NW) — avoid for bed/desk/sofa

Directions to avoid

Northwest (NW) carries Jue Ming (絕命) for Kua 4 — the most draining bearing in your personal map. Long exposure here in the living room affects sleep quality, income focus, or household tension depending on room use. Toilet, closet, or utility placement on Northwest is fine; active body alignment is not.

In 2026, Northwest also hosts star 3 (Three Jade) — double reason to keep beds, desks, and sofas off this axis when you can.

2026 overlay on your best direction

Your best bearing East (E) hosts annual star 9 (Nine Purple / 九紫) in 2026. Annual star supports your personal bearing — activate with the matching element (water, metal, earth, or fire accents).
