Decorate this area with wooden items and use red colors. In the south lies success in business. Place your photo here with some metal decorations. The west, on the other hand, pertains to water and life elements. Decorations of small fountains and several potted plants here will improve health and enhance ability to make good business deals. The north, which is fire, must be decorated with incense. This will help burn away the negativity such as misfortune, financial hardships, and gossip. The desk should be facing the doorway as this is the command position.
