Prosperous and weak sectors旺方 · 衰方

Explanation

Each school calculates them its own way. The Eight Mansions school, for example, divides the eight directions into four favourable sectors (Sheng Qi, Tian Yi, Yan Nian, Fu Wei) and four unfavourable ones (Jue Ming, Wu Gui, Liu Sha, Huo Hai) according to the house's trigram.

Prosperous and weak always depend on the measured orientation, so they mean something only after polarity is set correctly.

How Home Check uses it

Questions

Are the prosperous sectors the same in every home?

No. They change with the house's orientation; two neighbouring homes facing differently have different prosperous sectors.

What if a room sits in a weak sector?

Use it for spaces people do not stay in long, such as storage or a WC, or arrange the main furniture toward the better part of the room.
