Understanding the Bagua Map

A Guide to Transforming Your Space with Intention

In Feng Shui, the energy of your home is just as important as the energy you carry within yourself. One of the most powerful tools to understand and shift that energy is the Bagua Map — a traditional Feng Shui blueprint that helps you see where different areas of your life show up in your physical space.

At Gua Candle Company, every candle is intentionally crafted to support these areas of life, making the Bagua Map not just a concept… but a practical guide to creating harmony, balance, and purpose in your home.

What Is the Bagua Map?

The Bagua Map divides your space into nine energetic zones, each representing an aspect of your life:

• Wealth & Abundance

• Fame & Reputation

• Love & Partnerships

• Family & Legacy

• Center / Overall Well-Being

• Health

• Creativity & Children

• Knowledge & Self-Cultivation

• Career & Life Path

• Helpful People & Travel

When these areas are aligned and supported, your home becomes a sanctuary — a place that nurtures you and reflects the life you’re creating.

How to Use the Bagua Map

Place the map over the floor plan of your home or a single room, aligning the bottom edge with your main entrance. Each section of the map corresponds to a part of the space, revealing where certain energies may feel blocked, depleted, or ready to be activated.

This is where intention becomes powerful.

Supporting Your Bagua with Gua Candles

Every candle we pour carries a purpose — whether it’s grounding, clarity, protection, prosperity, or love — and each one can be placed in the corresponding Bagua area to enhance the flow of Chi.

For example:

• Wealth Gua → place your prosperity candle in the back left corner of your home or office to energize abundance.

• Love & Relationships → activate the back right corner with a candle focused on connection and harmony.

• Career & Life Path → support this area near your entryway with a candle meant to bring clarity and forward movement.

Small shifts create big changes when the energy is aligned.

Why the Bagua Map Matters

Your home is a mirror of your internal world. When you intentionally support your environment, you support yourself. Using the Bagua Map is a simple way to deepen your connection with your space and invite in the energy you want more of.

At Gua Candle Company, we believe every home deserves balance, alignment, and a touch of magic — and the Bagua Map is a beautiful place to begin.
