The date of birth has an extraordinary influence on us as individuals and on our lives. The ancient Chinese already knew this, so they created a Kua system that helps us achieve harmony, happiness, and success in life.
Kua number will help you better know yourself and your life path. It will also help you find out which directions and colors are lucky or unlucky for you, so if you want to work with feng-shui energy and apply it to your life, knowing your Kua number is crucial.
How to find out your Kua number
There is a formula for calculating your Kua number, which is quite complicated, and it’s much easier to use any Kua number calculator online. You fill in the date of birth and gender and then get your Kua number. I personally like this calculator.
Once you’ve found your Kua number, you’ll also find your best and worst compass directions. These are directions that affect you and your life. For example, because you have a Kua number 1, southeast is your success and finance zone, east is a zone of health and well-being, south is a zone of love and relationships, and north is a zone of personal growth.
Now that you know what your Kua number is and what directions will have the most positive impact on you, one last step is to locate these directions in your bedroom, office, or anywhere else you spend most of your time. You can do it simply by using the compass on your smart device.

Kua Number 1 Directions
Individuals with Kua number 1 have extraordinarily developed intuition and are the most ambitious and determined to achieve all Kua numbers’ goals.
Those with Kua 1 often seem to have been born for success and victory. They like to compete with others and are natural leaders. It’s quite easy for them to focus on their goals and firmly believe in achieving them. But what they forget the most is relaxation and sometimes even family because they tend to dedicate their lives to careers and money.
Kua 1s are go-getters, fighters, and hard workers who should use the potential of feng shui primarily to benefit their health.
These are your four lucky directions.
North
With Kua number 1, north is your personal growth and success direction. It is the area of your room where you should place flowers, books, a vision board, inspirational quotes, an office desk, or anything else that represents personal and career growth.
If you’re working from home on a laptop, this is where your office desk and laptop should be placed.
South
If your Kua number is 1, then the south is the direction that is associated with your love life and relationships. You can enhance the energy of this area in your room by placing items that symbolize love, such as two candles, two hearts, or a picture of a couple. It is recommended to use colors like red or pink as they are commonly associated with love.
In case you have a door or window in that particular location, you can hang a picture of hearts or anything related to love to enhance the feng-shui energy of that area. Despite doors and windows possibly presenting a challenge, there are ways to apply feng-shui principles to those spaces.
Southeast
Southeast is your direction for success, money, wealth, and abundance. A wooden box, a statue of a buddha, or a fountain are some of the most suitable items to place in this area. The wood itself is suitable for attracting money, and water symbolizes flow. Read more in this article: Feng Shui Money Corner
To improve the feng shui of your room, it’s recommended to create space near the wall by moving any furniture, such as beds or closets, away from it. This will allow you to place a money box or any other feng shui item in that area. It shouldn’t be a problem to rearrange your room by simply moving objects to other areas.
East
Your final fortunate direction is towards the east, which is associated with good health and overall wellness. As Kua number 1, it is important that you prioritize your health and well-being above all else.
Individuals who have a Kua number of 1 frequently struggle with sleeplessness. Therefore, it is important for them to prioritize their sleep and pay attention to the positioning of their bed and the direction in which their head face while sleeping.
This particular section of the room is appropriate for any health-related objects, such as a collection of green candles, a pot of herbs, or big plants. It is crucial to maintain cleanliness in this area and ensure that any plants present are well taken care of and watered regularly. Neglecting to care for them properly can lead to detrimental effects on personal health, including wilted or dirty flowers.
Colors
With Kua number 1, your lucky colors are purple, violet, and gold. I recommend buying dishes in these colors, as well as clothes or bed linen. I also encourage you to incorporate these colors into your southeast space. It could be purple candles or pillows, or gold picture frames. You shouldn’t bother with the shade of the item, whether it’s dark or light purple because it’s not important.
Sleeping Direction
With the east being your lucky direction of health and well-being, it is recommended that you face the east direction while sleeping. If it is not possible to move your bed, then it is advisable to avoid having your head face west and northwest, in particular.
