Forget the kitsch. Removing the Sharp Corner is mostly: light, flow, and what your eye lands on first when you walk in.

What it is#

The bagua map overlays nine life areas on a floor plan. It’s a prompt for intention, not a rulebook.

Why it matters#

Clutter is postponed decision. Clearing it is the highest-leverage feng shui move most people skip.

How to read it#

The command position — seeing the door without being in its direct line — is the single most-used principle for desk and bed.

A simple practice#

The 20-minute reset:

1. Clear the entry#

The first three metres inside your door set the tone. Make it open and calm.

2. Move your desk#

If you can’t see the door, add a mirror or shift the chair. Command position changes focus.

3. One drawer#

Pick the worst drawer and empty it. Momentum beats a full weekend.

FAQ#

Can rentals use it?

Yes — movable fixes (mirrors, plants, furniture) matter more than architecture.

Is feng shui religious?

It’s a spatial practice with roots in Chinese cosmology, used secularly by many.

Do I need a compass?

Not to start. Clutter, light, and command position beat compass maths for most homes.
