Desk Feng Shui: Left Side High, Right Side Low (Dragon vs Tiger Rule)
Every Object has a Tai Chi
At the advanced level, we don’t just look at rooms, but the micro feng shui of furniture.
The Desk’s “Left Dragon, Right Tiger” 🐉🐅
No matter where your desk faces, when sitting in the chair:
- Left Side (Green Dragon): Should be High (monitor, stack of files, lamp). Represents benefactors and movement.
- Right Side (White Tiger): Should be Low (mouse, pen, or empty). Represents peace and guarding wealth.
Bad Example
Phone on the right side—when it rings, you get annoyed (Tiger opening mouth); Left side empty—no one helps you at work (Dragon broken).
The Bed’s “Backing” 🛏️
Advanced Requirement: The headboard must not only be against a wall, but the other side of that wall cannot be a toilet, stove, or elevator shaft.
Reason
Hearing water (Drenching Head Water), fire (Fire Burning Heart), or elevator vibration (Sound Sha) through the wall will subconsciously destroy your nervous system.
