Marriage life is about mutual tolerance, understanding, help, and progress. Happy families are all similar, while unhappy ones have many different reasons. In addition to personal factors, the feng shui of the house may also harm the marital fortune. Below, Huayi Network editor will show you the feng shui layouts that can harm marital fortune.

Feng Shui Layouts That Harm Marital Fortune
1. Solitary Room
A house that is narrow and surrounded by no other houses or rooms that are too far from other family members. Living in such a house or room for a long time can lead to social withdrawal, making it difficult to attract romantic relationships.
2. Confined Room
A house with a large tree in the middle, which looks like the character "困" (confinement), such as in a courtyard house, or a house with a central courtyard where trees represent the "flower" element, and the house represents earth. Since wood overcomes earth, this can weaken the flower energy, thus harming your marital fortune.
The Nine Most Harmful Feng Shui Factors for Marital Fortune
3. Dark Basement Room
A basement room or a room that is very cold and gloomy even if not a basement. Living in such a place for a long time can naturally make people become more introverted, making it hard to attract romantic relationships, eventually leading to being a "spinster."
4. Bed with Books or杂物
A single bed should not be too big or too small. It should have enough space besides just for sleeping, as extra space can accommodate the "flower" energy. If the bed is completely filled with books and no space remains, it is hard to attract romantic relationships.
5. A Beam Over the Bed
There should be no beam directly above the bed. If a beam is directly facing the bed, it divides the energy, which is unfavorable for both one's fortune and love life.
6. Seeing the Bed upon Entering
Seeing the bed immediately upon entering the house is a major feng shui taboo. This layout can cause restless sleep and frequent insomnia, leading to conflicts between couples.
7. Bed Facing Sharp Objects
If sharp objects face the bed, it can cause conflicts between couples, leading to frequent arguments and stubbornness. If there are such items, they should be removed immediately.
8. Too Many Mirrors in the House
Too many mirrors in the bedroom, especially those facing the bed (even the TV should be covered when not in use, as it acts like a mirror), can create negative energy affecting the relationship between men and women.
9. Poor Door Orientation
A poor door orientation, a door connected to a window in the living room, or a door directly facing another house's door, can lead to problems in the relationship or even issues like miscarriages after marriage.
Feng Shui Layouts That Are Harmful to Marital Fortune
1. Bed Factors
This is the top factor. Specifically, a bed head facing west, which is a major feng shui taboo; the right side of the bed (the White Tiger position) is wider than the left (the Green Dragon position); mirrors facing the bed or placed on the bed or in the bedroom with items matching one's zodiac animal, all are detrimental to the couple's relationship.
2. Flower Position Factors
Many couples do not know their home's flower position. They buy a crystal lucky item, which is supposed to bring wealth when placed in the wealth area, but if it is mistakenly placed in the flower position, it can attract the opposite sex frequently, causing the couple's relationship to grow distant. For example, placing vases in the house, because the word "vase" (瓶) sounds like "peace" (平), many couples place them at home or in the office. However, if the vase is placed in the flower position, it becomes an object that attracts romance, and one partner's infidelity becomes "understandable."
3. Water Factors
Many couples like to place fish tanks inside the house to promote wealth and decoration. Since water is soft yet strong, it has the effect of transforming energy. Generally, it should be placed in the weak energy direction, as water can transform weak energy into positive energy. Special attention must be paid to the direction of the water flow, which should be inward, not outward. Also, the placement angle must not have sharp corners facing the flower position or the bed. Because of improper placement, most often, there will be cases of romantic scandals, as water brings both wealth and romance.
4. Basement Factors
Many couples live in basements temporarily due to house demolition or working away from home, but their conflicts increase, ultimately leading to separation. This is because basement rooms are very cold and gloomy, and living in such places for a long time causes imbalance in the yin-yang and five elements, which is harmful to marriage.
5. Living Room Factors
The marital fortune is important in the living room of a house. Many people hang abstract paintings or calligraphy in the living room, which reduces the yin-yang energy, causing tension in the couple's relationship. Master Yang Yi suggests placing crystals or hanging photos of the couple here to help improve the relationship.
