LOCATION OF THE LIVING ROOM:
- Entrance: The Living room should be near the entrance to the house.
- North or East facing site: The Living room can be in the North-East.
- West facing Site: The Living room can be in the North-West.
- South facing Site: One can have a South-East Living room.
- A living room can also, be in the Central East, central West, central North or central South of a house.
ARRANGEMENT OF FURNITURE IN THE LIVING ROOM:
- Air Conditioners should be placed on the West walls.
- TV should be placed such that the viewing is facing East or North.
- Sofa sets should be placed against the South and West walls or if there is no other choice on the East walls.
- Avoid a cluttered sofa arrangement. There should be free movement.
- Avoid furniture near the corners of columns, pillars etc.
- As a rule, avoid sitting under a beam as it excites your stress zone and disturbs your rational judgment in matters of importance. The balance can be partly restored by concealing beams with the help of a false ceiling.
- A small water fountain that runs throughout the day, and made of natural materials like copper, stone, glass, clay, stainless steel, bamboo, etc., or a Fish Aquarium is recommended in the Living room preferably in the North-East corner.
- Fireplaces can be located in the South-East or North-West, since South-East represents Agni (Fire). But it is better to avoid the North-East and South-West corners since North-East represents Water.
