What is the Feng Shui Bagua Map?
The Feng Shui Bagua Map—also known as the energy map or nine-grid chart—is one of the most important foundations in Feng Shui practice.
It divides your home, room, or workspace into nine energy zones, each corresponding to a different life aspect:
Wealth, Fame, Love, Family, Health, Creativity,
Knowledge, Career, and Helpful People.
This concept comes from classical Chinese metaphysics, linking spatial orientation with the flow of Chi (energy).
When your environment aligns harmoniously with your personal energy pattern, you can experience greater stability, prosperity, and well-being.
The Bagua Map used here follows the BTB (Black Hat Tantric Buddhist) school,
which orients the map based on the main entrance wall rather than compass directions.
This makes it practical and intuitive for apartments and modern spaces.

Colors & the Five Elements in the Bagua
Each Bagua zone resonates with a natural element and color palette.
By incorporating matching tones, textures, and materials, you strengthen the energy flow in that area.

Frequently Asked Questions
How do I align the Feng Shui Bagua Map correctly?
For the BTB method, align the bottom row of the Bagua with the wall containing your main entrance. This orientation connects your home’s Chi with your life path.
Can this map be used for a single room or apartment?
Yes. Treat one room or studio as the entire home. Align the map to the entry door of that space and analyze each zone individually.
Is the Compass method more accurate?
Both have valid roots. Compass-based Bagua is direction-sensitive and traditional, while BTB is energy-intuitive and easier for modern layouts. Choose one and stay consistent.
What should I focus on first?
Start with decluttering and balancing your Wealth, Health, or Career sectors. A clean, bright space activates positive flow faster than decoration alone.
