Many families, when furnishing their homes, focus solely on the appearance of the windows, aesthetics and style. If small children live in the house, then in addition to visual appeal, attention is paid to such aspects as safety and convenience. And, of course, many people pay attention to the view behind the glass.
But rarely does anyone think about what the concept of window openings should be according to Feng Shui. And, accordingly, the location of windows often turns out to be incorrect, which negatively affects the energy of the house.
Ground view
The earth, according to Feng Shui, has complex, dual energy. She not only gives, but also absorbs. Accordingly, a lot of negative and even unhealthy energy accumulates in the earth.
If the windows “look” at the ground, then this will certainly affect the emotional state of people, causing nervousness and aggression or depression.

Installation of the structure opposite the windows
If no requests have any effect, you can install a fairly wide shield or other structure that blocks the view of the window.
It is important not to install it too close to the fence and follow these steps:
- Send your neighbor a certified letter notifying you of the installation.
- If he refuses, write a letter to the administration, police and other local institutions. It states that you are notifying them in installing the structure. In most cases they will not respond to such a request, but it is important that the letter is received.
- After this, the structure is installed.
- If a neighbor, after its installation, complains to various authorities, a response will be received that these organizations have been notified of this fact.
Window sizes
The size of the window is as important as its location. Small window openings do not provide the required amount of energy flow. This causes an oppressive and overwhelming atmosphere in the house. Windows that are too large are not particularly good either. They “spray” home energy and do not allow it to form. There is no comfort or special atmosphere in such houses.
According to Feng Shui, windows should be positioned so that they are taller than a person's height. The size and shape of the window frame should be harmoniously combined with the doors, ceiling heights, and living space.
Windows facing north

The north side for windows is unfavorable for window placement according to Feng Shui.
If this does happen, then Feng Shui speaks of curtaining the windows on this side.
According to Feng Shui, you should never put bars on windows. All this delays positive energy that can enter the house. If there are still grilles, then it is better to make them beautiful, for example, with openwork.
If it so happens that the window is located opposite the front door, then in order to retain the positive energy in the house, you can install light curtains, or, as a last resort, place vases for separation.
View of the road
Feng Shui followers say that roads should not be visible from windows. This type contributes to a constant leakage of energy, which negatively affects the atmosphere in the house.

If the windows face the road, then household members develop a feeling of anxiety; people feel that they have forgotten something and they need to go somewhere, do something. Such an emotional state will certainly negatively affect the well-being of the family.

I live in a new building, in a nice, cozy apartment, and opposite my house there is the same ten-story building. So, before I didn’t notice anything special about her, but one evening I lingered on the balcony with a cigarette and something caught my attention. In one of the windows of the house opposite, on the 10th floor, the light was constantly turning on and off. After standing like that for about 10 minutes, I went to bed, but began to spend some of my free time watching outside the window every evening. It turned out that the window blinked very unevenly: the light either stayed longer, or, on the contrary, the darkness lasted longer. I had an idea about Morse code, but I couldn’t decipher anything intelligible. I even bought old binoculars at a flea market, but, unfortunately, I couldn’t see anything, since the window turned out to be curtained with a white curtain, letting in light but not allowing me to look into the apartment.
One weekend I stayed at my laptop until three in the morning. I glanced out the window, and my attention was drawn to the fact that the object of my observations was no longer blinking, but was burning somehow especially brightly. I went out onto the balcony, took binoculars and peered. The curtains were open, and a dark silhouette stood on the other side. No matter how hard I tried, I could not see the face of its owner. I caught myself obsessively thinking that I had been noticed.
Suddenly the light in the window went out. As in the entire quarter. As soon as my eyes got used to the darkness, I noticed a gray shadow quickly running across the yard and flying into my entrance, loudly slamming the door with the combination lock that had become useless. Soon I heard a loud knock on the door. The last thing in the world I wanted to do was go to the door, but the worm of curiosity that was nagging me during my attempts to solve the riddle of the window was tempting me to look through the peephole, enticing me with the opportunity to get all the answers. Trying to make as little noise as possible, I crept up to the exit and clung to the peephole in the same way as to the eyepiece of binoculars. In the dim light of the moon falling into the entrance, I saw a humanoid creature. Realizing what I had seen, I began to pray, but then fell into a saving faint. I woke up in the morning, right there, in the corridor. There was no knocking outside the door, but for a long time I did not dare to approach and make sure that everything was over. During this time, electricity was already supplied. A survey of the few neighbors was unsuccessful. However, I am still confident that I saw an unknown creature knocking on my door with its face. A face consisting of one large mouth.
I don't look out the windows anymore.
One window opposite another
The windows located opposite look incredibly beautiful and attractive. They fill the room with light and air, making it a great place for dance parties and celebrations with a large number of guests. And if the room is really intended for social receptions, then this arrangement of window openings is quite appropriate and even correct.
But in living rooms and in the kitchen, such a layout is not allowed. According to Feng Shui, windows positioned in this way are like tunnels through which street energy passes without interacting with the home atmosphere. That is, the energy of the house is not renewed.
The same applies to the location of window openings opposite the doors.
Windows facing south
beautiful bedroom
According to Feng Shui, a window that faces south is an excellent way to attract positive and auspicious energy. On the south side the sun shines more often, so it is so important that the sun's rays, bringing brightness and light, penetrate into the rooms.
But there is also an opinion that there should be protection on the southern windows. For example, a canopy, a roof that will protect from negativity. But it is not recommended to curtain southern or eastern windows; solar energy is good energy.
Secrets from Violetta
Do you think the place where you are affects you, your state and mood? Those. is there a difference - either you are next to a river that brings you cool and pleasantly murmurs, or you are in the forest, where the sun breaks through the branches and birds are chirping, or you are in the center of a hot and stuffy stone metropolis in the heat, or you are walking along a dusty road along which huge timber trucks pass every now and then?.. Surely, you will answer what influences it. And our behavior and mood depend on what surrounds us. In the same way, we are influenced by the place where we live and the place where we work, that is, where we spend a lot of time. Our home is a living organism. Doors are the “mouth” of our apartment, through them Qi – beneficial energy – comes to us. However, we live in high-rise buildings (most of us) and install iron doors that close tightly.
And I already said that energy can be compared to light or air to better understand how it spreads. Tightly closed doors are unlikely to allow energy to enter the house. After all, neither air nor light can penetrate with closed doors. It turns out that energy can only get through them when someone leaves or enters. What if a woman lives alone?! In the morning to work, in the evening - from work, and that’s it!!!? And if you are on the 15th floor, and the energy entering the entrance, you have to try very hard to fly... In addition, we open the windows much more often, and the energy in our high-rise buildings enters our apartments mostly through the windows.
Therefore, which side the windows face is also very important. Remember your Gua number. Are there windows facing in a direction favorable to you? Then try to open these windows more often for ventilation! Very simple! It's true?! However, energy “enters and exits wonderfully” through windows. Therefore, when there is a window directly opposite the front door of the house, you understand what is happening, right?! In and out. I didn’t run through the apartment. After all, flows always follow the path of least resistance. What is the correction? Remember? Yes, something that dissipates energy along the way. Flower, crystal, lamps. And the curtain covering the window also helps! Even light tulle. Preferably, not thick organza, but one with a hole. Or completely dense.
You can place flowers on both sides of the door, through which you can see the window opposite from the entrance.
In general, in this state of affairs (door-window), the organs along our spine, on the central axis of the body, can often suffer. It's a draft because... And the house is our reflection... (it’s clear why the toilet in the center is not good at all? Watch your heart and stomach, if you have such an arrangement. Well, if the windows are one opposite the other, then it’s about the same. In these situations ( energy draft) as if there is no stability, some kind of protection, discomfort is felt. And rooms without windows?!
Imagine now how much force you need to put in to lure energy there?! If the rooms are walk-through, this, as you understand, is better. As we pass, we create vortex flows and carry energy with us, helping it get there. What if the rooms are dead ends?! In general, rooms without windows are bad. These could be libraries or dressing rooms, or storage closets, but not living rooms. If there is a staircase opposite the door or window in the house, then... what will happen? The incoming energy “rushes” up the stairs, leaving the lower floor without its influence. For the same reason, a staircase in the center of the house is also not good.
Let's return to the windows. Just like with the front doors... Look out of each of your windows onto the street. Look around carefully. What do you see? What attracts attention first? What's secondary? What in general only upon careful examination? This is what immediately attracts attention - this is what will have the most impact on your home. And, of course, for an apartment in it. SUDDENLY the house is two-story, and opposite there is a huge high-rise building, bulky... Hanging right over your house. Fine? Hardly. A feeling of depression is guaranteed. Let it take time, but it will begin. Or the neighboring house is built in such a way that it sends its “poisonous arrow” at yours. Or the pipes of a neighboring thermal power plant or boiler room - right in front of the windows. Or now often - some kind of tower with antennas attached.
All this hardly creates a good mood when you see it. And it hardly adds positivity to life. I won’t even mention research from the field of psychology and psychotherapy with constant exposure to certain waves. What if the view from the window is garbage containers and homeless people hanging out around them? Any object outside your home carries either positive or negative energy. A well-maintained beautiful house opposite is good, a dilapidated and shabby house is unlikely. A school and a kindergarten nearby are good, but a hospital and a morgue next to it are unlikely. Forest and field - good, cemetery - unlikely. An inter-block passage with moderate traffic is good, but a busy highway is unlikely. A temple, a church, a mosque - it would seem that it should be good, however, there is very powerful Yin energy around them. It is also important to correct the balance. Look carefully outside your home. What do you see? If the view is unpleasant to you, the very first and surest means of neutralization is to draw, close, thick, beautiful curtains. Well, or blinds. Or if there are tulle curtains, then through which unpleasant pictures are definitely not visible.

The corner of the house looks out the bedroom window - an example from Feng Shui practice
My clients were choosing an apartment and asked me to evaluate the Feng Shui of the apartment before purchasing. I asked to find out the composition of the family and the reason for selling the apartment. The owners of the apartment were a married couple with a small child. Reason for sale: divorce and division of property. I looked around the apartment and noticed that the corner of the neighboring house looked into the window of the matrimonial bedroom. The neighboring house was close and the influence of the “Sha corner” was noticeable. The angle itself cannot lead to divorce, but under its influence problems can appear that divide the family. I did not recommend clients to buy this apartment and they found a better option.
Tulle
This is one of the classic ways to protect an apartment from prying eyes - tulle in combination with curtains perfectly prevents the violation of personal space, gives the interior comfort, hides window defects and masks heating radiators.
If you live on the ground floor, combine tulle with curtains: a thin fabric will protect you during the day, and a tightly drawn fabric will protect you in the evening.
Corner of a neighboring house according to Feng Shui
Look out the windows of your apartment, house or office and pay attention to where the corners of neighboring houses are directed. In dense urban areas, it happens that the corner of a neighboring house looks into the window of another apartment or office. This situation in Feng Shui is called “Sha Angle” and means the harmful influence of the external environment. If you imagine the situation in motion, then the corner of the house crashes into the space of the apartment and destroys it. Such destruction occurs at a more subtle energy level. The view from the window at the corner of the house creates tension, a feeling of danger and aggression from the external environment. Gradually, this tension accumulates and manifests itself in quarrels, conflicts, health or money problems. It all depends on the energy stability of specific people and the time of exposure to the “Sha Angle”.
Window placement according to the Bagua grid
According to Feng Shui, the elements of fire, wood, water and metal have their own cardinal directions (south, east, north, west). That's why:
- The east sector (tree) affects the well-being of the family. Windows facing east are most suitable for schoolchildren and students. Also, this sector will contribute to achieving the goals.
- If the windows open to the south, then fire energy will flow into the room. The south brings glory and fame.
- North windows receive water energy. They are recommended to be covered with curtains and can be decorated with flowers that do not require sunlight.
- The element of metal (West) is favorable for childbirth and the health of older people. You should not place a vase of flowers on windows facing west,
According to Feng Shui, windows are important links in the circulation of positive Qi and negative Sha energy. They let one in, the other, on the contrary, they let out. By following simple recommendations, maintaining a clean and presentable appearance, and choosing the right size and location of windows, you can fill your home with vital energy and health.
