In the field of home life, there are great subtleties in house decoration and furniture arrangement from the perspective of Feng Shui. Improper layouts may affect the fortune, health, and family atmosphere of residents. Here are the ten taboos in house decoration and furniture arrangement in home Feng Shui and their principles.

Taboo: There should not be too much furniture in the house. If the space is crowded, the traffic flow in the home will not be smooth. The space occupied by furniture should preferably not exceed 50%, otherwise, it will affect the normal circulation of qi in the room.
Principle: In Feng Shui, smooth - flowing qi is crucial for fortune. When there is too much furniture, the space becomes narrow, and qi cannot circulate in an orderly manner, hindering the development of family fortune. Moreover, a cramped space makes people feel oppressed, affecting mood and daily life.

Taboo: The sofa should not be empty behind, lacking a backing.
Principle: The sofa represents career and interpersonal relationships. Having a backing symbolizes having noble people to support, and a smooth career. An empty - backed sofa is likely to cause the dissipation of wealth and is not conducive to prosperity in terms of population and wealth. If space is limited, a screen or a low cabinet can be placed as a substitute for a backing.

Taboo: There should be no beam directly above the sofa.
Principle: A beam hanging over the head is considered a great omen of misfortune in Feng Shui. It brings psychological pressure to people sitting on the sofa, affecting the qi field. It is likely to block career development and cause physical problems. Lucky bamboo can be placed on the side tea tables of the sofa to ease this negative influence.

Taboo: The bed should not face a mirror directly.
Principle: Mirrors have a reflective effect. When people are sleeping, they may be startled by the reflected image in the mirror, affecting sleep and mental state, and disrupting the harmonious atmosphere of the bedroom.

Taboo: The bed should not be placed under a beam.
Principle: People under a beam subconsciously feel oppressed, and the qi field is suppressed. This affects sleep, leading to frequent dreams and easy awakening. It also makes it easy to encounter obstacles in career and life.

Taboo: The stove should face auspicious directions and avoid facing the front door, bedroom door, or toilet door directly. It should not be hit by the water from the faucet, and the sink and the stove should not be in a straight line.
Principle: The stove is related to wealth and the health of the hostess. Facing the door, being hit by water, etc. can lead to financial losses, bad temper, disharmony between husband and wife, and health problems. Facing auspicious directions is beneficial.

Taboo: The dining table should avoid triangular and diamond - shaped shapes. Try not to choose marble or glass - textured ones. It should not be directly hit by the front door or toilet door, nor by doorways or passageways.
Principle: Triangular and diamond - shaped dining tables are sharp and easy to cause harm. Marble and glass - textured dining tables are likely to absorb human energy. A dining table being hit makes diners feel uneasy, affecting appetite and fortune.

Taboo: The head of the bedroom bed should be against the wall.
Principle: The head of the bed against the wall symbolizes being protected and being able to turn bad luck into good. Not against the wall makes people feel insecure, isolated in career and life, and is not conducive to family stability.

Taboo: Avoid using too many mirrors in the room, and mirrors should not face the door or the bed.
Principle: Improper use of mirrors can reflect away good qi, disrupt the qi field, make people feel dizzy, and affect physical and mental health and fortune.

Taboo: Do not place thorny or withered plants in the wealth position, and do not place large or overly fragrant plants in the bedroom.
Principle: Thorny and withered plants in the wealth position damage the qi field, which is not conducive to wealth. Large plants in the bedroom compete for oxygen at night, and overly fragrant plants affect sleep, thus affecting mental state and fortune.
