Bagua Map for Each Room
From LoveToKnow Feng-Shui
Learn how to do a bagua map for each room to ensure positive chi flow in each space in your home.
Why a Bagua Map for Each Room?
Every room and every item in your home has its own energy and vibrations. While doing a bagua map for the entire home is okay, in order to fine tune the chi flow in your home, you want to take the time to do an individual map in every room. To avoid becoming overwhelmed, choose a couple of rooms at one time, adjust them accordingly and then move on. You don't want to drain your own energy while trying to adjust ensure a positive chi flow in your home.
Things You Will Need
The first thing you need is a layout, or a map, of the floor plan of your home. You want to draw a separate layout for each floor, as you will be applying the bagua map separately. Here is a list of supplies you will need:
- Drawing paper – You can use plain white paper or graphing paper if you like.
- Pencil
- Tracing paper
- Straight edge ruler
Drawing the Layout of Each Room
Begin by sketching out a general layout of each room in your home on a piece of tracing paper. Measurements on your map do not necessarily have to be exact, but you do want your drawing to reflect the sizes of your rooms accurately. Be sure to include all doorways, entryways windows and closets. Do this for each room on every floor of your home.
Drawing the Bagua Map
Next, you want to take a piece of drawing paper and using a ruler, divide the paper into nine even squares. Then label and assign the corresponding colors to the squares.
| Prosperity | Fame | Love |
| Family | Center/Health | Creativity |
| Wisdom | Career | Guidance |
Putting It Together
Take your drawings of each room (the ones you did on tracing paper) and lay them over the bagua map. This allows you to see the bagua map and the corresponding colors of each square.
When placing your floor layouts on top of the bagua map, make sure that the entrance to the room falls within one of the three orienting areas. The three orienting areas are:
- Career
- Wisdom
- Guidance
Simply turn the floor layout on top of the bagua map until the entrance to the room falls into one of these three areas. Once you have done that, your bagua map is in the proper place.

Angel, when doing a bagua map for rooms with more than one entrance, position the map to where the center section, faces the main entrance, or the entrance most used for the room, and then go from there.
