bed facing a curtain?or sliding door or partition

[Cecil Lee]

The most important consideration is that when sleeping; one's legs must not face an opening;

Other than the above other senarios are not an issue.

Futher to what I had mentioned; these are futher considerations:
1. A bed facing a curtain is no issue. However, walking thru curtains that is months old may be a "commonsense" concern. Here, if we do not wash the curtains regularly; all the germs would multiply on the curtain.
1.1. And when we walk past or walk thru the curtain; we are only rubbing the germs into our skin e.g. our face has a natural oil protection. And walking thru such a curtain may even deposit the germs onto our face.
2. Best that the side of the partition is not aimed towards the bed. Just imagine the side of the partition or the edge of the partition as a form of a "cutting blade or knife" aimed towards our body. This is considered inauspicious.
3. Where possible, all major bedroom doors should open inwards. Thus it is best not to install a sliding door to a bedroom door. However, there is no issue if the toilet door is sliding or if there is a walk-in-wardrope; this door can also be a sliding door.

Hi Master Lee,
My legs will face the door of my walk-in wardrobe which is a corner. Instead of a set of sliding doors for my wardrobe I installed curtains.
Is that a concern? Thanks.

In my opinion, there is no concern.
What led to this thing about legs facing a door = inauspicious is due to the fact that in the past and even today; if one live in a landed property.
And if the coffin is brought home. The coffin would be laid with the legs facing the main entrance.
This is how;it is considered inauspicious for the legs to facea DOOR leadingout of the home.
Look at from common sense or cow sense; your walk-in-wardrope or walk-in-closet is an enclosedspace; how to carry out a "coffin" thru the walk-in-closet?It is pure common sense.

I see, noted. Thank you!

Master Lee,

My bed is facing a sliding door to our lawn. And not the door to our bedroom.This sliding door is seldom opened and it's curtained. We always draw the curtain when we are sleeping. Should I move my bed or put something in between my bed and the sliding door?

Based on the information provided, it is sufficient. You also inquired about whether to relocate your bed or place an object between the bed and the sliding door. It is not required.

Master Lee,

My bed is in between my walk-in wardrobe sliding door and a window facing the living room. I'm planning to put a curtain on the window.

Is this fine? What should I do with the walk-in wardrobe sliding door? It is in line with the middle of the bed.

1. It is advisable to have curtains on the windows for privacy, even if you are alone. There are no Feng Shui concerns with the window facing the living room.

2. This situation is acceptable as the walk-in wardrobe does not pose any Feng Shui issues when seen from the bed.

3. According to Feng Shui principles, a table lamp can act as a symbolic partition, but it is optional in this case as there are no real issues to address.

You wrote: "Is this fine? What should I do with the walk-in wardrobe sliding door? It is in line with the middle of the bed."

2. This is okay. As it is just a walk-in-wardrope and not a toilet /WC seen from the bed. Thus no Feng Shui issues, here.

3. In Feng Shui, a table lamp acts as a symbolic partition. Thus optional if want to do so. Since, as mentioned under Para 2, really no issue.

thank you Master Lee

Dear Master Lee,

Is it fine for my legs/feet facing the full height sliding door to the balcony? 

Thank you!

In my view, as long as this unit is not on the ground floor level with a PES, it is satisfactory but not ideal.

It is generally preferable for the bed-head side to face the sliding door, especially for those who enjoy taking afternoon naps or reading in bed.

This is because, even with the day curtain drawn, there will often be intense sunlight shining directly at us if our legs face the sliding door(s). This could potentially result in eye astigmatism due to the glare coming through the windows.

sorry cecil, quick question that the partition between door way and staircase if i choose this type of partition is it ok? cos i remembered not to have something that feels like got something “slicing” me when i enter the door way?

. Indeed, upon initial observation, this appears to have a rather "intense" appearance... therefore, it will not be approved = a failure!
