inauspicious sector for period 8 + awkward shape

[chueh]

Dear Master,

Q1..The bedroom is located in the North sector (House facing SE3).  Period 8 base star is 4, water star 2, and mountain 4.  From my understanding, I will need METAL element to weaken the earth, yet I heard that some practitioners actually use yin water in this kind of wood and earth clash condition.  What should I do?

 

Q2..this is the only bedroom, yet the shape of it is very awkward to place a queen bed here.  However the directions or placements I propose are always directly facing the bathroom door and the other door is cut us in half, vice versa,  or the corner angle creates sha-qi .  Is there a better way to place the bed?  Thank you so much.
