Dear Michaella,

There are two points of view here:-

1. Yin and Yang concept

On a superficial level, or based on Yin and Yang concept:

Flowers create more Yang than Yin. And in a bedroom, usually, `more' Yin is preferred than Yang in a bedroom. Where Yin environment is considered more conducive for `rest'.

However, like the placement of mirrors; some of us feel uncomfortable with mirror(s) facing the bed while for others; it is fine.

2. Balance of the Five elements concept

This involves a deeper understanding of the Five elements concept. Here, for example, Flying Star analysis is used to check for any imbalances in a sector (if any). For example, if there is bad earth element #5 or #2; one can use metal element to destroy it. Such as in the bedroom. As you mentioned that flowers are `red' they represent the fire element and usually, the sector should not clash with the `red' flowers.

These are usually the two methods of how FS is applied in the above situation.

Warmest Regards,
Cecil
