Most bedrooms are square, rectangle or oval. The proper form of the room allows the energy to flow freely. Rooms with sharp corners are considered unfavorable, but this can be adjusted with mirrors, plants or curtains to ensure you have the right bed placement.
Since the bedroom is the place to rest, it has to be farthest from the front door and it is very important that it is not located on a straight line to the front door, and it should not be near the kitchen and toilet.
The bedroom should only have one door as this will help avoiding crossing of energy flows and result in negative effects.
The furniture in the bedroom should be chosen without sharp corners, and you need to make sure that if there are any, they are not aimed at the bed. The most common objects that are considered as “proble”are bedside tables, whose corners will cross your bed from both sides. So try to position them farther apart or drape them with a soft cloth.
Your bed should be strong and solid and it should be quieter than any other furniture pieces.

Generally, it is advisable not to put the bed in the middle of the room.The most comfortable position of the bed is diagonally across from the door. Avoid placing the bed close to the window.
It is advisable that your bed was on the legs or wheels, and is not placed directly on the floor. Also it is recommendable that you do not store any items below it.
It is a good idea to avoid bedrooms with sloping ceiling. If you have no other option, however, stretch a red ribbon parallel to the floor, to smooth the angles.
It is important not to place the bed under the ceiling beams, especially across them. it is not possible to rearrange the bed, the best way to avoid the bad influence of the beams will be to create a false ceiling or use something to correct the energy flow. Bells, windmills, crystals, etc will be helpful.
The bed should not be places in the direction of corners, signs, advertising arrows pointing in your direction, as well as various sharp objects that you can see directly from the bed. Use mirrors, curtains or blinds to neutralize the bad effect.
