Beam Pressing on Office Chair
Admin October 16, 2026
In Feng Shui, a beam pressing on an office chair is considered an unlucky configuration that may affect an individual's work luck and physical health. Here are some solutions:

- Adjust sitting posture: When sitting in a chair, avoid leaning against the desk and try to move your body away from directly beneath the beam. By changing your sitting posture, you can reduce direct contact between your body and the beam, thereby alleviating both psychological and physical pressure.
- Place a desk lamp or decorations on the desk: Placing a stylish desk lamp or other decorative items above the desk can not only beautify the office environment but also divert attention, reducing excessive focus on the pressure from the beam and thus mitigating the impact of bad Feng Shui.
- Use screens or low cabinets as partitions: If the office space allows, use partitions such as screens or low cabinets to separate your seat from the beam. This can change the direction of airflow, adjust the spatial layout, and reduce the direct impact of the beam on you.
- Counteracting methods: Hang decorations such as Five Emperor Coins, Shanhai Town talismans, or Bagua mirrors on the beam. These decorations possess certain magnetic field energies that can resist bad Feng Shui to some extent, thereby neutralizing the malevolent energy brought by the beam.
- Blessed Pixiu to ward off evil: If there are auspicious creatures (such as Pixiu) placed in the office, wrap them in red cloth and place them aside. Pixiu itself has the function of warding off evil and blocking malevolent energy. Wrapping it in red cloth can better counteract the influence of bad energy fields.
- Animals and plants to neutralize malevolent energy: Animals and plants such as fish, birds, and succulents can absorb bad substances and convert them into their own nutrients. By placing these animals and plants in the office, you can improve the Feng Shui atmosphere indoors and alleviate the adverse effects of the beam's pressure.
- Consult a talisman expert: Invite a professional master to design a special talisman for warding off evil and protecting oneself based on personal BaZi information and home conditions. This talisman can help improve one's luck and resistance and alleviate the problem of the beam's pressure. However, it is important to choose a legitimate channel to purchase the talisman to ensure its effectiveness.
- Other methods: You can use other materials to cover the beam, but this may lower the ceiling height and incur additional costs, and you will need to communicate with your boss. You can also hang a red Chinese knot at each end of the beam and a small palace lantern in the middle. Alternatively, you can rearrange the position of your desk to ensure that neither the desk and chair nor your sitting posture is directly beneath the beam.
