TL;DR

Pick one method (main door or compass), drop a clean 3x3 grid, and keep zone boundaries consistent even in irregular layouts.

Why it matters

Bagua (the eight trigrams map) works when zones stay consistent and the center remains balanced; switching methods creates mixed signals.

Fixes you can try

Start with no-renovation moves before heavier changes.

1

Fixes without renovation

Choose one alignment method, label the 3x3 grid, and keep balconies or voids consistently in or out.

2

Fixes with renovation

Strengthen missing corners with lighting, storage, or circulation adjustments to reduce the void.

3

Check it on a floor plan

Overlay a nine-grid on your plan, mark the front door, and note any rooms split across zones.

Scenarios covered

Bagua map feng shui, bagua directions, main door vs compass alignment, L-shaped layouts, missing corners, bagua zones splitting rooms.

When it is OK

  • The grid fits inside the main walls with only minor offsets.
  • Balconies or patios are excluded consistently across all zones.
  • Split rooms have a clear dominant zone.

When to dig deeper

  • You keep switching between door and compass placement.
  • The center of the grid lands in a wall or shaft.
  • One room spreads across multiple zones without a dominant area.
