Could you use a boost in self-esteem, courage, and confidence?
Would you like to increase success, good fortune, and get a better night’s sleep?
If so, it’s time to learn about the feng shui command position!
Using the command position can help you with furniture and room layouts in your home, office, business, or anywhere else you spend a lot of time.
Let’s discuss the command position in feng shui and how to use it!
What is the command position in feng shui?
The command position in feng shui is one of the most important principles of furniture layout.
When you use the commanding position to arrange furniture, you are essentially taking charge of the energy in the room (and therefore your life!)
The commanding position in a room is the position of power, success, and strength.
Here’s How to Find The Feng Shui Command Position:
- You should be facing the door, but not directly in front of the door.
- Your back is not to any door or walkway.
- You have a solid wall behind you.
The command position means that you can see anyone who enters the room.
You are in the position of power and have “command” of the room.
When you think about the CEO office in any movie or tv show, think about where the CEO’s desk is situated in the room.
It’s almost always in the command position.
Why is the commanding position the best position in the room?
Essentially, it’s the position of power and safety.
It means no one can sneak up behind you when you’re sitting (or sleeping!)
You can see everyone who enters and exits the room.
You can also see anything else that happens in the room. You have complete control over the space, which means your nervous system will be able to relax instead of always being on high alert.
It also conveys power and strength to anyone who comes into the room.
You are in the power position and are therefore in control.
The command position is also about energy flow.
Being across from the door but not directly in front of the door means that you benefit from the positive energy as it enters the room.
You can (symbolically) see the good fortune, abundance, and auspicious Chi as it comes your way!
You are ready to take charge of new opportunities, good luck, and all of the good you’re attracting into your life.
You won’t miss it because your back is turned.
What are the benefits of applying the command position in Feng Shui?
- It’s the position of power.
- Your nervous system can relax because you can see everyone who enters the room.
- When your bed is in the command position, it leads to deeper sleep and relaxation.
- You can see good fortune as it comes your way.
- The Universe sees you as “in charge” of your life, which leads to greater success, good fortune, and even more respect from others.
The Command Position and Placement of Furniture
The most important pieces of furniture that should be placed in the command position are:
Bed
Placing your bed in the command position means you will get a better night’s sleep.
Your nervous system will be relaxed and calm.
Your bed should be across from the door (but not directly in front of it.)
And your head should be against a solid wall.
You should also have a solid headboard – especially if your bed has to go on a wall with a window, or if the wall is next to a bathroom.
This will slow down the energy and help you get a solid night’s sleep!
Desk
Your desk in either your work office or home office should be in the command position.
This will help you attract success, power, and financial abundance in your job.
When your desk isn’t in the command position it can cause confusion, frustration, instability in your job, and even things like back-stabbing coworkers!
Stove
Your stove is a wealth center in your home, because it’s where you cook meals and share abundance with others.
Ideally, you would be standing in the command position when you are cooking on your stovetop.
That means you shouldn’t have your back to the door, and your cooktop should be against a solid wall.
Sofa or Main Chair
The chair or sofa where you sit the most in your living room or family room should be in the command position.
This is why most feng shui practitioners say not to place your sofa under a window, because it should have a solid wall behind it.
Of course with open floorplans or smaller living rooms, it’s not always possible to follow all of the rules.
So the most important one to consider is to not have your back to the main entrance to the room.
Dining Chair
The head chair of the dining table should be in the command position.
This is the position of power in the family, usually reserved for whoever is the “head of the household.”
If you have a round dining table, the position of power will be the one across from the door…
