Feng Shui Bagua Office Productivity

Applying Feng Shui treatments in a shared office area with cubicles or open office arrangement can be accomplished with a modified version of the traditional bagua.  In shared offices the traditional bagua of wisdom, community, empowerment, future, relationships, descendants, compassion and health is changed to challenges, power, association, motivation and career vitality.  Following is a brief way to apply the modified bagua to an office area.
  • The power area is farthest from the threshold of a room.  This area focuses on control, capability, and competence.  Positive items include the desk as long as the occupant sits facing the entrance, growth charts and sales records, icons representing future goals, awards and achievements.  The area may be depleted of potency if the desk is facing away from the entrance to the room, a glass wall is facing another work area, coffee machine,water cooler, general break area or storage closet are located in the power area.
  • The association area is the right side of the room when you are at the room's entrance.  Positive items include fax machine, desk if work involves communication or human services, copier, conference table, reception area, business plans or development ideas, customer files.  The area may be depleted of potency if research or library area, bathroom, awards, sales charts, written dictates such as posted performance reviews are located in the association area.
  • The motivation area is the area surrounding the threshold when you are a the room's entrance.  Positive items include desired rewards or goals, reception area, pictures of individuals admired in the industry, inspirational books, files filled with resource materials.  The area may be depleted of potency if piles of unfinished work, a clock, dim lighting or a conference table are located in the area.
  • The challenge area is the left side of a space.  Positive items include long-term goals, a place for contemplation, inspirational books and publications, printer, computer.  The area may be depleted of potency if file cabinets, break area or coffee maker, calendar, scanner, copy machine, or other duplicating equipment are located in the area.
  • The career vitality or financial health area is the physical center of an area.  Positive items include desk, central file system, printers, fax machine, other communication systems, sculpture or life-enhancing features such as fresh flowers, water feature, terrarium, scent diffuser, accounting or president's office.  The area may be depleted of potency if an empty receptacle for waste or shredders, dictaphone, vault or locked cabinet are in the area.
