What is a Bagua?
Everything that happens in life can be boiled down into one of 9 life situations or categories, and each category is represented in your living quarters by a particular area. Each area is called a gua, and the sum of these areas put in a particular order is called the bagua. Ba means eight, and the bagua has eight sides. The eight sides, plus the middle area, make up the nine zones that relate to different life situations.
Here is a picture of the bagua we will be using:
It is a little less intimidating when viewed as a grid...

That bottom one is really cool looking. It would make a nifty T shirt logo.
I had never seen a bagua drawn as a grid before. That's interesting, and my "westren-right-brain" finds it very appealing.
Nice exercise to zero in on the places in life where I want more balance... I jump started this project with some decluttering and would love to make daily uncluttering a habit for life - what a fresh feeling. For me, part of uncluttering was also to take care of one nagging thing that needed doing - you know, the one that you procrastinate over and then it tortures you? Does that qualify as feng shui too?
