What to Know First

In traditional Feng Shui, "Green Dragon on the left, White Tiger on the right" is a fundamental principle for spatial orientation.

How to identify the sides: Stand inside your home, facing toward the main entrance door. Your left side is the "Green Dragon" position, which represents mentors (helpful people), career success, and masculine (Yang) energy; this side prefers height and activity rather than being too low. Your right side is the "White Tiger" position, which represents women, financial wealth, and feminine (Yin) energy; this side prefers being lower and quieter.

Why balance matters: If the left side is too low or the right side is too high (a Feng Shui flaw known as the "White Tiger raising its head"), it can easily cause domestic arguments, gossip, or lead to the female head of the household becoming overly domineering. Therefore, when arranging your home, try to keep the two sides balanced, or allow the left side to be slightly higher than the right to ensure a peaceful and harmonious household.
