Practical Guide: Using Feng Shui Layouts to Help Children Improve Academic Performance
Children's academic performance is a primary concern for every parent. Besides ensuring adequate sleep and diligent study, scientific Feng Shui layouts can effectively enhance learning efficiency. This article details the method for locating the Wen Chang position based on the child's BaZi and four practical layout steps to aid academic progress.
1. Locating the Wen Chang Position: Determine Study Direction Based on Day Stem
Identify the exclusive Wen Chang position using the Heavenly Stem of the child's birth day. The specific correspondences are as follows:
| Birth Day Stem | Wen Chang Branch | Corresponding Direction |
|---|---|---|
| Jia | Si | Southeast (South slightly East) |
| Yi | Wu | Due South |
| Bing, Wu | Shen | Southwest (West slightly South) |
| Ding, Ji | You | Due West |
| Geng | Hai | Northwest (North slightly West) |
| Xin | Zi | Due North |
| Ren | Yin | Northeast (East slightly North) |
| Gui | Mao | Due East |
2. Study Desk Arrangement: The Key of Position and Orientation
Placing the study desk in the Wen Chang position is ideal, ensuring the child faces the Wen Chang direction while studying. If the layout restricts this, determine the desk location based on the child's Gua number: Eldest Son - East, Eldest Daughter - Southeast, Second Son - North, Second Daughter - South, Third Son - Northeast, Third Daughter - West. The minimum requirement is ensuring the Wen Chang position is not a toilet or kitchen.
3. Wen Chang Brush and Coins: Enhancing Study Energy
Place a new, unused bamboo-handled calligraphy brush in the top left corner of the desk, accompanied by four Qian Long Tong Bao coins or one-yuan coins. This combination, known as the "Wen Chang Brush," effectively enhances concentration and memory.
4. Wen Chang Pagoda and Plants: Auxiliary Layout Elements
Place a peach wood Wen Chang Pagoda in the Wen Chang position, or maintain a pot of Lucky Bamboo (four stalks are best, as the later number for the Xun Gua is 4). These elements resonate with the Wen Chang position's energy, further strengthening study effectiveness.
5. Environmental Maintenance: Keeping the Energy Field Pure
Ensure the Wen Chang position is clean, tidy, and well-lit, avoiding clutter. Pay special attention that the Wen Chang position is not a toilet or kitchen stove, as this disrupts the stability of the energy field.
