Your four auspicious directions · 四吉位
| Star | Direction | Meaning | Practical use |
|---|---|---|---|
| Sheng Qi (生氣) | Northwest · NW | Wealth & Vitality | Face this way when you work. Ideal for your main door, desk, and where you take action. |
| Tian Yi (天醫) | Southwest · SW | Health & Recovery | Best wall for your bed headboard. Supports rest, healing, and a nourishing kitchen. |
| Yan Nian (延年) | Northeast · NE | Love & Relationships | Face here in heartfelt conversations. Strengthens bonds and patience. |
| Fu Wei (伏位) | West · W | Stability & Focus | Calm grounding energy. Great for study, meditation, or steady deep work. |
Your four directions to soften · 四凶位
| Star | Direction | Meaning | Practical use |
|---|---|---|---|
| Huo Hai (禍害) | North · N | Minor Setbacks | Small frustrations gather here. Fine for a hallway or closet — not your bed. |
| Liu Sha (六煞) | Southeast · SE | Stress & Friction | Tension pools here. Avoid sleeping or working facing this direction. |
| Wu Gui (五鬼) | East · E | Conflict & Instability | Arguments and misplaced things. Best for storage or a bathroom. |
| Jue Ming (絕命) | South · S | Greatest Drain | Most draining direction. Never bed or desk — toilet or storage is fine. |
How to use your Kua 7 directions
For Kua 7, treat directions as action lines — not superstition, but where your body points when you sleep, work, and enter the home.
- Bed: Headboard on the Southwest wall (SW) — Tian Yi (天醫) supports recovery and deep sleep.
- Desk: Face Northwest (NW) when working — Sheng Qi (生氣) is your strongest wealth-and-action line.
- Main door: If you can choose, an entrance opening toward Northwest or West (W) welcomes supportive energy. Avoid aligning the door with South (S).
- Conversations: Face Northeast (NE) for relationship talks — Yan Nian (延年) softens friction.
