Poll question: How do you align your bed in the bedroom?
I have mine facing north/south. Thinking of doing it diagonally, for a change...

How does yours face?

1. I've always had it N-S
I don't think it was intentional... I just reviewed everywhere I've lived and it's always been N-S. That is weird!

2. I've had it several ways in my house over the years
Seems I want to move it every time a woman moves on. :eyes:

Diagonal was fun, but cleaning in that little triangle was problematic. And once I had it with the head up against the windows, but opening them was a pain in the butt. :shrug:

15. you should look into putting a crystal or mirror up so your
energy is directed the right way.

I don't really know what I'm talking about, but there are ways to redirect the energy even with two doors.

21. the bed shouldn't face any doors. especially the entry door for fear
the chi flying into the room disturbs your rest

tuck it away from the door

5. Head facing West.
is the only way we could really arrange it. But I also heard you sleep better that way, b/c of the Earth's rotation or something.

7. East. I love to see the sun come up and shine in on me
particularly through the branches of my pink dogwood when it is in bloom. My bedroom is flooded in pink light!

12. i align my bed according to feng shui
principles. For me its best to align the direction of my head East and the second would be South if I choose to realign my bed from where it is now. I'm actually considering doing that.

17. Head goes to the East, as does the house door. It's essential.

27. I align it however my wife wants it
No idea if it's north-south, east-west or what. I know it's not diagonal.

The first time my wife came over to my home before we were married, she had me re-arranging my furniture.
