Myth-Busting Common Feng Shui Misconceptions

When many people hear the term Feng Shui, they picture moving furniture around, avoiding “bad energy,” or even strict rules about where a bed or mirror can go. While those ideas are common, they don’t reflect the true heart of feng shui.

Feng shui isn’t about superstition or creating a picture-perfect home. It’s about aligning your space with your intentions so that it supports you in daily life. Think of it as creating a home or office that feels grounding, inspiring, and energizing, so you can thrive.

Here are a few of the most common misconceptions I hear about Feng Shui:

Myth #1: Feng Shui is about rules.
Truth: Feng shui is flexible and adaptable. The principles can be applied to any home, office, or space, regardless of size, style, or layout.

Myth #2: Feng Shui requires buying new furniture or décor.
Truth: Most adjustments use what you already have, with small shifts in placement, intention, or symbolism.

Myth #3: Feng Shui is only for the “spiritual.”
Truth: Feng shui benefits everyone. It’s practical, accessible, and can support wellness, focus, prosperity, and harmony.

By moving past the myths, you’ll discover that feng shui is less about “rules” and more about creating environments that feel supportive, comfortable, and aligned with your goals.
