Where should the bed go?

These tools answer that using Eight Mansions (八宅), one school of feng shui. You give a birth year and a rough floor plan; you get positions ranked, each with the reason it ranked there. No photos, no sign-up, no readings about your future.

What costs money, and what does not

Every tool above is free and needs no account. There is one paid item — the full home report at US$29, a single payment rather than a subscription, refundable within 14 days.

It assembles all eight sectors with this year's positions applied to each, the bedroom against your own chart, and one printable document. Full pricing.

What Eight Mansions actually says

Eight Mansions divides the compass into eight directions and sorts them into four that suit you and four that do not. Which four you get depends on one thing: the year you were born, adjusted so the year starts at the beginning of spring rather than on 1 January.

That gives you a number from 1 to 9 — your Kua number — and the number points to a set of directions. Two people born a week apart can land in opposite sets, which is why a bed position that suits one person may not suit the other.

What these tools will not do

They will not tell you what is going to happen to you, and they will not read a photograph. Eight Mansions is a set of rules about direction and placement. It has nothing to say about your face, and we have not bolted on anything that pretends otherwise.

We also stick to one school. Flying Star, San He and San Yuan use different methods and reach different answers. Blending them would produce output that no school would recognise, so we do not. What we assume, and how we check it.
