Living Room
As mentioned earlier, the ideal entrance to your living room should open from a
foyer. When the front door opens directly into the living room, a buffer is needed
to slow down the fast flowing energy from the entrance to your home.

You should choose colors for your living
room that are beneficial to your Kua number
and direction or that suit your overall harmony.
I recently did a Feng Shui for a lady who
was a West person that had a green sofa and
love seat in her home. If she would have read
this book or consulted with me before buying
the sofa she would have known that green is
the worst color for her to use. Her whole living
room was green. She immediately went
out and bought gold covers and saw an
improvement with her life soon after. Her
business improved tremendously.
Place green plants around the room, but balance them with other things. Your furniture
should be spacious, uncluttered and pleasing to the eye. Paintings should be
warm and inviting. Never have cactus in your home. Cactus is the worst kind of
plant you can have in your home. They are very unlucky. Try to keep a nice bouquet
of fresh flowers near the entrance to the house. People feel immediately at
ease when they see fresh flowers. This is the reason you always see fresh flowers
in restaurants or in the lobbies of hotels.
Your living room should be fresh and have a feeling of being lived in. So many
families have family rooms they use instead of their living rooms, saving the living
room for special occasions. Rooms in your home that are unused accumulate
stagnant energy and detract from an otherwise balanced home.
Live in this room! That's how it got its name!
Fireplaces, regardless of the room where they are found, should never be left
uncovered. A screen or glass should cover the opening. Open fireplaces leak out
good ch'i energy and take away all of your money.
