Feng Shui zones in the apartment - this isan amazing way to transform your life. About a thousand years ago, the ancient Chinese teaching of "feng shui" was born, which translated means "feng" - "wind", and "shui" - "water". The Chinese realized that the elements and the surrounding world generate energy, on which our life depends. Living in certain places, the ancient Chinese began to notice that nature itself creates landscapes with different levels of energy: low and high. Therefore, having studied the "laws of nature", they began to use the knowledge they acquired in everyday life, settling in the most favorable and protected places. Ideally, the teaching assumes not only the favorable arrangement of sectors in an apartment or room, but also the correct initial choice of place of residence.
What is the essence of the doctrine of Feng Shui?
At present, of course, we are far from thoselandscape possibilities in which ancient people lived. Few people can afford to have a country house near the sea and mountains, surrounded by gardens and shrubs. In the conditions of global urbanization, many strive to harmonize their personal homes in accordance with the eastern knowledge of pure vital energy Qi. Unfortunately, in the conditions of a big city this is incredibly difficult, because a house or apartment should not be located near noisy places, old buildings, etc. As for the interior space, it can and should be harmonized.
How to identify zones yourself
According to the teachings of Feng Shui, our homeis a spiritual living substance in which energy circulates, influencing our life. So, let's try to divide our home into zones of influence of this vital energy, so that our life becomes more comfortable and harmonious. First, you need to know what zones exist. There are nine of them, according to the Bagua grid. The Bagua grid is one of the fundamental concepts of ancient Chinese teaching, which is a regular octagon with a center in the middle. This "sacred octagon" is divided into 9 sectors, including the central one, responsible for health. In order to understand which sector (zone) this or that part of your home belongs to, you need to know the cardinal directions in relation to your apartment. It is quite possible that you will need a compass for a more accurate determination.
Let's consider each of the zones in more detail
The northern zone is responsible for career, success inbusiness and for the overall dynamics of the room. It corresponds to colors: from blue to black. The element is water, which geometrically takes the shape in which it is placed. To activate this zone, it is recommended to place everything related to water in this part of the room: paintings with seascapes, aquariums with fish, non-heating electrical appliances. Because, according to "feng shui", electricity and magnetic field are also related to water. The metal that supports water can be reflected in any metal decorative ornament (for example, coins tied with a red ribbon, or metal tubes - "wind chimes"). Aquariums with turtles and fish, all kinds of fountains, mirrors and a metal horseshoe will be a positive talisman.
The South is responsible for the zone of glory, authority andsocial status Represents the element of fire, which is characterized by red shades. By working on activating this sector, you will achieve the desired results, fame and success much faster. To strengthen this sector, it is important to use triangular and pointed shapes, wood and fire. Various paintings depicting strong animals, blooming sunflowers and poppies, and sunrises are suitable as decorative elements here. Photos of famous and successful people next to yours, fancy pointed lamps, scented candles, peacock feathers, etc. will bring good luck. Reading special affirmations will also help to give strength to this sector, which will allow you to soon achieve universal respect and acquire solid authority.
Zone of creativity, children and their relationships withparents are represented by the western sector Element - air. Undoubtedly, children are the best manifestation of creativity!

In this part of the apartment, it is good to place images of children and pets, netsuke figures of children. The influence of this zone on the work of creative people will be very positive if a workplace is located in it.
One of the most important places in our life is occupied byFamily relationships. The East is responsible for this area. The symbol of this zone is considered to be a tree. Therefore, it is very favorable to place something of plant origin in this part of the home. Moreover, this would also satisfy the main green color of this zone. It is good to place a tree in a tub here, live flowers with leaves upward, bamboo shoots, symbolizing eternal love, fidelity, reliability and well-being of the family. In order for harmony to reign in your home, it is very useful to place frames with family photos on the wall, where everyone looks smiling and happy. A positive effect will also be given by tall rectangular interior items made of wood. For reinforcement, you can place objects related to water here. Sharp and piercing objects are extremely unfavorable, which will bring discord and misunderstanding to your family.
The northeast is responsible for the education zone andwisdom. Element - earth. Beige, orange and yellow colors are favorable. Triangle and square shapes are successful.

Southeast - zone of prosperity and wealthIn the modern world, well-being plays an important role. This zone corresponds to the element of wood. Favorable colors and shades of green, purple, gold.

For the zone of teachers, patrons and travelIt is considered that the northwest zone is the main element - metal. Square, round and oval shapes are favorable, as well as all shades of white and yellow. The placement of images of distant countries and exotic landscapes, photographs of authoritative people, a metal bell, and crystals in these places has a very good effect. You should not use bright lighting and candles in this part of the house, as fire harms metal. This sector mainly promotes support and protection from the heavenly forces. Therefore, in case of correct activation of this sector, their patronage will always accompany you on your life path. It is very important to install talismans in the form of statues of the god Ganesha and Kuan Kung (Kuan Di). These talismans will bring good luck in business and protect against negative influences. Images of mountains will have a positive effect in this sector.

But you should be wary of images of mountains near bodies of water, otherwise there is a risk of financial losses.
Southwest - the zone of marriage and loveRelationships Element - earth. Characteristic colors: from pink to red, shades of beige. Geometric shapes - triangle and square. In our life, love and happy relationships are the most significant and in demand. After all, when a person's "soul sings", any business goes well. The need "to love and be loved" is inherent in each of us by nature. Therefore, to improve the situation in this area, it is necessary to properly harmonize the energy in your home and the sector responsible for this area. If you are looking for a new relationship, then you should not hang photos of your ex-partners or single people on the wall in this area. It is better to use hearts in the form of jewelry or their images, bouquets of fresh flowers, equivalent paired items (a pair of doves, pillows, images of pairs of swans, flamingos). For greater effect, you can buy a couple of bright red candles in a stone candlestick and crystals.

It touches and influences all other zones in an incredible way, which we are convinced of every time when we are not in the best health. The dominant element is earth. Favorable colors - from beige to terracotta. Characteristic shapes are square and triangle. The zone is not saturated with objects in terms of volume.
