Traditions and interpretations are presented as traditions and interpretations — never as established fact or prediction.

Two planners and a guided tool

Enter a room's basics and get a layout note that clearly labels which suggestions are ergonomic and which are traditional.

🧭 Feng Shui history and schools, side by side

Room layout planner

A starting layout for a specific room, with tradition-based and ergonomics-based suggestions labelled separately rather than blended together.

Assumptions this uses
  • Commanding-position guidance (seeing the door from the bed/desk without being directly in line with it) is treated as a classical Form School principle, not a scientific finding
  • Element and direction associations follow the BTB front-door Bagua convention, the most common version discussed in Western sources, and this is stated on the result
  • Clutter score is a self-report, used only to prioritise which changes to suggest first
  • The tool does not calculate a Flying Star chart, which requires a building's construction year and precise compass reading beyond what this form collects

Limitations: This cannot tell you whether a layout will affect your wealth, health or relationships, and it is not a substitute for a Compass School reading, which requires precise directional data this form does not collect.

Quick read

The one distinction that clears up most confusion

Almost every contradiction people run into online comes from mixing up schools. If you remember only one thing, remember this: check whether advice comes from Form School, Compass/Flying Star School, or Black Hat (BTB) before deciding it's wrong or right. The three genuinely disagree, and that's normal, not a flaw in the subject.

Symbol meaning explorer

Look up what a symbol, object or number is traditionally associated with in Feng Shui and related East Asian tradition, attributed to the tradition that holds it.

Assumptions this uses
  • Associations are drawn from stated classical or documented folk tradition, never invented
  • Where traditions disagree on a symbol's meaning, more than one reading is shown rather than picking one
  • A symbol's Feng Shui association is presented as traditional belief, not as an established fact
  • This tool does not diagnose a room or predict an outcome from an object you already own

Limitations: This cannot tell you whether a symbol 'means' anything in your specific situation, and it does not draw on every possible tradition — only the ones a source can be named for.

Build your practice plan

Build a realistic, small home-harmony practice — decluttering, a room refresh, a bit of reading — sized to the time you actually have.

Assumptions this uses
  • The plan favours decluttering and organisation first, since that overlaps with plain ergonomics regardless of tradition
  • Any classical placement step included is labelled as tradition, not as an assured effect
  • Minutes and days are treated as a hard constraint, not a suggestion — the plan is built to fit, not to impress
  • This is a personal practice planner, not a professional consultation substitute

Limitations: This cannot tell you whether a plan will change your mood, health or finances, and it isn't a substitute for working with a trained practitioner if that's what you're actually looking for.
