Feng Shui Family

If you are looking to improve relationships between family members and are willing to try Feng Shui, then you need to read on.

I am a 3rd generation Feng Shui expert and I have helped thousands of people improve their lives through Feng Shui.

Family Area Overview

In Feng Shui, make changes to the Family Area to better provide for and have positive relationships with your family.

Notice how I included providing for your family there. If you ignore this area, you can forget about getting wealthy, even with lots of focus on your Prosperity Corner.

Primary Element: Wood
Complementary Element: Water
Best Color: Green
Complementary Colors: Blue, Purple, Gold, Black
Best Shapes: Vertical Rectangles & Columns
Complementary Shape: Undulating, meaning free-flowing or without shape
Enhancements: Family Photos in Wooden Frames, Plants
Destructive Items: Metal, White, Circles, Fire, Red, Triangles, Stars

The Family area of your home is the left-center part of your floor plan after you’ve walked through your front door.

This area represents your family’s harmony and happiness. If you Feng Shui this part of your house, you will promote good relationships with your current family members and feel protected by your ancestry. Additionally, you should have a global sense of family when complete.

Do not ignore this section if you are looking to Feng Shui your office, as you should want to develop a sense of family in your business (more on that later).

Besides taking care of just the Family Area (or Gua) of your home, take a look at common areas, such as your living room and dining room. These common areas are the most influential areas for family in your home and you want to ensure a sense of harmony here as well as the Family Gua.

Feng Shui Family Tree

As with any Feng Shui Gua, the Family section can be best associated with an object with which you base the ideal elements and colors for the Gua. In this case, it is best to think of a beautiful and large family tree with lots of limbs and foliage.

Green Colors

When thinking in terms of a family tree, wouldn’t you want your family tree to have lots of beautiful green leaves? Elements within your family areas should also have highlights of green.

Because green is an organic symbol of life and growth in your family, you can paint your walls across the spectrum of green. Or you can simply use a few green throw pillows to add life to the room.

Wood & Water Elements

Continuing with the family tree theme for the Family Gua, the best element to use here is wood. To make the best use of the wood element, try happy family pictures in wooden frames.

Never use metal frames or other metal objects here because metal cuts down wood. Wooden furniture or pictures of plush forests would be ideal in the Family areas of your home.

As water also helps trees grow, it is a good supplemental element to wood. As such, good supplemental colors would include blue or black, since they represent water and will add to the growth of your family. But, be sure not to flood your forest of trees!

Dangerous Elements & Cures

Forget about using objects and colors that represent fire in the Family areas, since fire burns wood. Therefore, you should avoid high energy colors like red and orange in the family spaces of your home, as these colors represent fire. Also avoid shapes that represent fire, such as triangles, stars, etc.

If you already have a fireplace in this area, you might want to hang a large painting of calm water above it. Even if you never use it, a fireplace still represents a large fire element. A painting of calm water above the fireplace represents water dousing the fire and it weakens the effects of the fire.

Metal is also a dangerous element in the Family Area because metal axes chop wood. As such, avoid here the other representations of metal to include the color white and rounded shapes.

No Family Pictures on the Fireplace!

Never put your family pictures on top of a fireplace, no matter which Gua of the house the fireplace resides. I can’t stress this enough! If you have pictures of your family, or even just your children, on top of a fireplace, you may experience conflict between those in the pictures.

As a real life example of what this might represent, imagine all of the members of your family driving together in a car with no air conditioning through the desert during the height of summer. The stress and tension between the family members would rise with the temperature. If you can avoid this situation, even a representative one, please do.

By the way, the same holds true even if a person pictured is deceased. As my mom used to tell me, don’t anger the dead!

No Clutter

As with all of the areas of a home, the Family Gua of the house should be free of clutter. Good Chi (energy) flows most effectively in places where there aren’t any obstacles.

This is primarily why I recommend that every room be as comfortable and clean as possible. Indeed, physical clutter represents an obstacle in a person’s mind and spirit.

Don’t Ignore Your Business

If you are looking to Feng Shui your office or place of business, then please do not ignore the Family Gua.

A healthy business promotes a sense of family to include employees, customers, and vendors. Therefore, give all of these parties every opportunity to effectively communicate and work together. Follow the above guidelines with your business just as you would with your home.

Next Steps

Don’t simply focus on only this one area of the Bagua. Rather, keep going by learning about the Prosperity / Wealth / Money Corner.

Do you have a unique situation at your home or office?

Are you missing the Family Area from your floor plan or does it have a dangerous item, such as a bathroom, fireplace, stairway, or garage?

Are you looking to boost relationships between family members?
