The sacred magic octagon Pa Kua

This octagon is based on 8 trigrams. Its sides (directions) indicate the various aspects of your life, which can be harmonized according to feng shui. If you learn the concept of Ba Gua, you will know how to change the interiors to improve your life.

Trigrams are ancient symbols, whose origin dates back to the I-Ching Book of Changes, one of the oldest systems of divination and interpretation of energy in the world. In traditional Chinese culture, trigrams were used in medicine, martial arts, philosophy, and religion. In feng shui, the sacred octagon of Pa Kua is used to understand the energies inherent in someone’s home, apartment, or office.

Bagua has nine main sections: eight sides and the center. Each section corresponds to one or more areas of your life and has its direction and color. In this way, you can find out what elements of your environment affect certain aspects of your life. Here are the 9 sections: North Black Race; Northeast Blue Knowledge; East Green Family; Wealth of the southeastern violet; Fame South Red; I love Southwest Pink; West White children; Helpful Northwest Gray People; Yellow health center.

All zones are equally important as they interact and depend on each other. If any area is weakened, it can have a negative impact on other areas. Ideally, all Ba Gua directions should be strong and balanced. It is better not to push just one zone, for example the wealth zone. You may gain wealth, but you may lose something else.

Only one area dominates all the others: the center, which symbolizes health and unity. If you don’t know where to start improving your life, start at the center; you can’t go wrong.
