Kua 2
Kua 2 is the Kun trigram, the Earth element, southwest. West group. The direction for work is northeast; for health, west.
Directions
| Type | Direction | Used for |
|---|---|---|
| Sheng Qi | NE | Work, income |
| Tian Yi | W | Health |
| Yan Nian | NW | Relationships |
| Fu Wei | SW | Calm |
East, southeast, south and north are unfavorable; north is the worst direction for a 2.
How to apply it at home
A 2 is Earth, and it suits a calm, stable interior: dense materials, ceramics, warm tones. Place the workspace facing northeast and the bed with the headboard to the west or southwest.
Wood weakens earth, so an abundance of large plants in the southwest area is traditionally not recommended for a 2 — unlike people in the East group, for whom wood is actually beneficial.
What to keep in mind
Kua 2 and Kua 8 share some of their directions: both belong to Earth and to the West group. If a household has one 2 and one 8, it's easier to agree on the layout than for a couple from different groups.
