Kua 8 Home Office — Face Southwest for Success

Core placement advice

Kua 8 (Gen · The Mountain, West Group) earns and decides facing Southwest (SW) — your Sheng Qi (生氣) line. At the desk, your face and chest point Southwest while you type, call, or read; that is the bearing that counts, not which wall the monitor touches.

If the desk must sit against a wall, put the monitor on Southwest and angle the chair so your body still opens toward Southwest. Do not take long calls or deep work facing Southeast (SE) — Jue Ming (絕命) for Kua 8 scatters focus. For Kua 8, that avoid bearing is Southeast; for Kua 2 it would be North — every chart differs.

Secondary wealth support: keep files and your calendar oriented toward Southwest (SW) when Southwest is blocked. Stable admin work can face Northeast (NE).

Your Kua 8 direction map

• Sheng Qi (生氣): Southwest (SW) — wealth & action
• Tian Yi (天醫): Northwest (NW) — health & recovery
• Yan Nian (延年): West (W) — relationships
• Fu Wei (伏位): Northeast (NE) — stability
• Jue Ming (絕命): Southeast (SE) — avoid for bed/desk/sofa

Directions to avoid

Southeast (SE) carries Jue Ming (絕命) for Kua 8 — the most draining bearing in your personal map. Long exposure here in the office affects sleep quality, income focus, or household tension depending on room use. Toilet, closet, or utility placement on Southeast is fine; active body alignment is not.

In 2026, Southeast also hosts star 1 (One White) — double reason to keep beds, desks, and sofas off this axis when you can.

2026 overlay on your best direction

Your best bearing Southwest (SW) hosts annual star 8 (Eight White / 八白) in 2026. Eight White (八白) amplifies wealth — one of the best desk overlays in 2026; earth tones and active income work here.
