[Living Room] Internal Taboos—The Straight-Through Digestive Tract

Let’s Keep It Real

Your house has a digestive system too.

Classic Floor Plan Disease 🚪➡️🪟

Open the front door and you can see straight through to the balcony window.

Translation

This is called “Piercing Heart Sha” (穿堂煞).

Good fortune (qi flow) enters the door but before it can circulate through the house, it goes straight out the balcony.

Consequences

Straight-intestine floor plan.

You earn plenty of money, but you can’t keep any of it. It’s all just passing through.

💡 Golden Tip (Emergency Kit)

Place a screen near the entrance, or put a large potted plant on the balcony. Force the Qi to “take an S-curve” before leaving.

Qi traveling straight = wealth leaks

Qi traveling curved = wind is held, Qi gathers

Feng Shui Practice

1. Open your front door
2. Stand in the doorway and look in—can you see straight through to the balcony or back window?
3. If yes, immediately get an entryway screen or a large plant

Recommended plants: Money Tree, Monstera, Fiddle Leaf Fig (all large enough to block)
