Feng shui orientations in the home and the smooth flow of chi in the various sectors also affect the wellbeing and health of residents.

Depending on how each of the home sectors are afflicted, specific problems can develop that affect the parts of the body symbolized by the different directions. These are based on the trigrams of the sector and their Elements.

Internal parts of the body are affected when the Elements of the home are weak and afflicted. So when the Fire sector (south) is negatively afflicted, either by physical disharmony caused by furniture placement, bad shapes, or wrong conflicting colors, or due to bad flying stars (formula feng shui), then the internal organ associated with the Fire Element will cause problems for the resident staying in the south. So understanding the relationship between the organs of the body and the Elements in accordance with the eight directions will add great breadth to your feng shui practice.

The heart and small intestine is of the Fire Element, the kidneys are of the Water Element, the lungs and colon are of the Metal Element, the liver is of the Wood Element, and the spleen and the stomach are of the Earth Element. This means that when the north is afflicted, residents sleeping there who are unwell may have kidney or bladder problems. When the east and southeast manifest health problems, those staying there may have liver or gall bladder-related ailments. Those staying in Earth sectors – the southwest and northeast – are vulnerable to stomach or spleen disorders.

The orientations within the home are also associated with body parts. Thus the northwest is associated with the head. So, for example, when the northwest is negatively affected, residents sleeping there may suffer from headaches and other disorders associated with the head. Using the same analysis, below is a summary of the body parts affected in accordance with afflicted sectors of the home.
