I am learning Feng Shui presently, and I have run into a little problem: My living room. The door (the main entrance to the home) is facing SE, and so the means that's my money position, right? Directly infront of the door is my entertainment center. Opposite of that is my couch. On the same wall as the door: My love seat. The computer desk is on the inner wall. I am including a chart. Now, my question: Is the entertainment center's position infront of the door blocking our money chi? I am planning on moving the couch and chair across the corners instead of up against the walls flat. Any other advice for this room? Should I move the computer desk into the bedroom (where the education area is)?
Thanks for any advice you are able to give, even if it's to tell me I'm crazy and my living room is a mess. he he (I already know that, though.)
The green squares are the couch and loveseat. The Brown one is the entertainment center,and the gray one is the computer desk.
Love to all, Kayanna

Dear Kayanna,
1. In my opinion, it is not be appropriate to apply `fixed' template Feng Shui to your home.
2. This is because, it is really hard to imagine that a particular sector is our money corner/sector or love/romance sector.
3. It is my believe and many other practitioners of traditional FS (although the methods may vary); not to depend on "paying homage" to sectors or corners.
4. In fact, I believe that if one is lucky to find a good or (reasonably good) house - i.e. with acceptable FS, this is already a plus point.
5. Fixed template " FS " does not take into consideration many of the vertical and horizontal analysis to analyse a house into components:-
5.1. Self
- Here, personal Gua or Kua is used to determine how suitable a house is to the person i.e. usually Eight House Theory is used here.
Or frequently called the 4 good and 4 bad directions.
5.2. The site and building (Shapes and Form)
- Here, locate and neutralise Sha Qi or poison arrows aimed especially towards the main entrance and bedroom windows (if any).
- Shapes and Form can be applied to the interior of the home.
5.3 Birth chart of the house (analysis using Flying Star)
5.4 Others include Pillars of Destiny to determine element and strength and the current luck period.
Only when a vertical and horizontal analysis is done, can we say whether a house is "in a mess or not".
6. If the above sounds too complicated, usually trusting one's own instincts is usually acceptable and sometimes far (far) better than relying too much on beliefs such as money corner, career corner etc....
Warmest Regards,
Cecil
