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 what you mentioned (above) it is good enough.

Not necessary. Or rather No Need to do anything further.

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.

These are some considerations:

1. It is a good to have a set of curtains at the windows. Frankly, there is no Feng Shui concern with the window facing living room. More towards a feeling of privacy. Even if  one stays alone.

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.

Dear Master Lee,

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

Thank you!

In my opinion, so long as this unit is not a ground floor level with a PES, it is (not perfect) but acceptable.

Based on common sense, often, it is still preferred to the the bed-head side facing this sliding door especially if one wants to catch an afternoon nap or so happens a "bookworm" loves to read on their bed. This is because, even if say one draws the day curtain, there will often be glaring sunlight facing us if legs face the sliding door(s). 

May lead to astigmatism of the eyes due to such a glare coming thru the windows.

Partition talk at Front Entrance area

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?

Yes, based on looks, this seems  “fierce” looking.. thus will not pass = a fail!
