Under the Eight House theory, there is really not much one can do other than understand that the house is the least suitable to you.

But one should look at the bigger picture. For example, what intangible force is affecting the bedroom.

Here, it is best that it is one of the four good intangible forces.

On the other hand if one spouse has a good intangible force and the other not so good, let the spouse with the better intangible force sleep closer to that sector.

For example if the husband's intangible force is prosperity while the wife's is disaster at the North sector (where the bed is).

Let the husband sleep closer to this North sector, shielding, the wife i.e. the wife sleeps further away from the intangible force.

Yes, under Shapes and Form Feng Shui it is best to have the table face the door.

Rather than having the door behind you. `On guard position).

Perhaps, I believe that most likely you have read somewhere to use three coins with red braid to generate wealth. Well, this is up to you as it is more of a believe than Feng Shui.

You can use the Eight House theory to confirm this.

Where possible:

1. Priority should go to sleeping at a good sector first.

2. Only after Para 1 is `satisfied' then you have a luxury of sleeping with the head facing a good direction (based on the Eight House theory).

For the placement of wind chimes and crystals, usually it is up to you (especially if you use `sixth sense' or `trial and error Feng Shui). As not much information is available here.

Most of the time, a more scientific method is to analyse using Flying Star theory to confirm if it is good or bad placing wind chimes or crystals.

This depends on the degree or involvement of an individual i.e. if one do not want to go further than just basic Feng Shui, thus, the choice is yours.
