Today, feng shui is used for everything from arranging office cubicles to gaining more recognition at work to helping aspiring writers become more prolific. But what if what you want is a baby? When you are trying to conceive, feng shui can be another tool in your fertility and conception toolbox.
Fertility is such a delicate thing because it can be affected so easily.
This is where feng shui can come help. Feng shui can help create a more balanced, harmonious – and relaxed – environment for conception to occur.
Obviously, the first place to look at is the home. Perhaps there is some kind of energy blockage.
Another consideration is the personal feng shui are the parents. This is the feng shui that is related to gender and birthdate.
Unlike western thought, feng shui for parents places the most emphasis on the father and not the mother.
The father must have what is called “descendant’s luck.” This is where personal feng shui can be called upon to help improve this type of luck. Moving the bed so that the man’s head points in his personal descendant’s luck direction can help conception in feng shui thought. This direction is also called the love direction and can be found by check the kua number of the man.
Renowned feng shui writer, Lillian Too, credits every book to her daughter Jennifer, whom she says was conceived after a feng shui master visited her home and saw that a tree was blocking her front door. The master told her that once the tree was removed she became pregnant.
True to his prediction – and after nine infertile years of marriage – Lillian’s daughter was born. This was also what launched her full study and practice of feng shui.
When it comes to enhancing fertility with feng shui, though, it would be wise to address both parents as well as the home. This way, a complete approach will be taken and nothing is overlooked. Fertility feng shui can’t create miracles but it can create a positive environment where miracles can occur.
6 Tips for Improving Fertility Feng Shui
1. ACTIVATE THE HEAVEN LUCK DIRECTION.
The northwest (NW) is the direction of heaven luck, according to feng shui (and aren’t all babies heaven-sent?). Add crystals to the northwest corner of the living room and bedroom to enhance the heaven energy of this corner.

In feng shui, the man’s descendant luck is a big part of conception luck

3. REMOVE ANY BLOCKS TO THE FRONT DOOR.
Be sure that there is an open space out the front door and that there is nothing in direct line with your front door, such as a tree, street, or another object. The front door is considered the “mouth of chi” and is where all energy enters the home, including baby chi. Make this area clean, auspicious, and beautiful. You should also ensure there are no poison arrows at your front door, such as a fireplace opposite the front door or another door or window directly opposite the front door. If there are, this can make chi flow too quickly and conception difficult.

Paintings of many children such as the famous Chinese “100 children paintings” can help with conception
4. ENHANCE THE WEST SECTOR FOR DESCENDANT’S LUCK.
The west is the sector associated with the children. For that reason, it is best to avoid having fire objects here, such as candles or bright lamps. Earth objects, such as vases are excellent fertility enhancers. Enhance this portion of the house, living, and bedroom with metal objects, such as fans, stereos, or other electronic or metal items.
Lastly, be sure to address problem areas in the west sectors of the home (and the west corner of your bedroom and living room) such as crowded closets or junk rooms. Work at getting these cleaned out to allow new creative (fertility) energy to enter your life in the form of a new baby. If there is a bathroom in this sector, make sure bathroom doors are shut and to keep a bright light on in this room.
To add extra conception chi to your home look for images of children in paintings such as the famous 100 Children paintings from China that feature 100 children and that are said to promote conception.
5. OBSERVE PROPER BEDROOM FENG SHUI.
Bedroom feng shui is extremely important when you are trying to conceive. Beds should never share the same wall as the door, a bathroom, or a kitchen. Televisions, work objects such as computers, mirrors, plants, and exercise equipment should be removed. Rest and romance should be the only activities in this room.

6. USE FERTILITY SYMBOLS AND ENHANCEMENTS.
Feng shui uses a number of symbols, many of which are thought to enhance fertility. Some of these would include:
Dragons: Placed on the side table of the man’s side of the bed, a dragon can add a little extra “oomph” in the bedroom. Make sure the dragon is small, otherwise, it will create too much “yang” energy in the room and make rest difficult.
Elephants: Place a pair of elephants on either side of the bedroom door. Elephants are associated with pregnancy. Or, place one statue of an elephant in the living room. Placed prominently in the bedroom, elephants are said to produce male children.
Double fish: The double fish is a symbol of the marital union. Display this in the southwest corner of your bedroom.
A single piece of hollow bamboo: Place this in the north sector of the bedroom to enhance fertility. These are said to aid conception.
Red paper lanterns: Hung on either side of the bed, these are believed to bring excellent yang (creative) energy to the bedroom.
Make love and add pregnancy symbols wherever the annual 9 star flies. This is an energy that moves each year and is called the pregnancy star. It is always helpful if you can spend time in this area and make love in the sector where it flies. If the 9 star is located at your front door or bedroom sector, it’s even more auspicious.

When you are trying to conceive, it’s always worth taking a comprehensive approach. Fortunately, feng shui can help you make sure the environment supports your endeavors to bring that new addition to your family.
