Use of Mirrors in Feng Shui
The mirror brings the energy of water.
Mirrors are used to expand a space, as well as to draw the beneficial Chi [positive energy] in.
Mirrors have been called the aspirin of Feng Shui; with proper placement, they can dramatically shift the flow of energy in any given space.
They also bring a sense of refreshment and calm.
Generally, there are three categories of mirrors in Feng Shui:
Typical mirrors defined by shape and frame materials (oval, round, square, etc.) For example, a round shape mirror in a gold leaf frame can be a beautiful Abundance cure and work well in the Southeast area of your space.
Concave mirrors. These mirrors are mostly used outside and produce an upside-down, condensed reflection.
Convex mirrors have protective qualities, serving as a watchful eye. Mostly used outside, although can be used inside, too, especially if nicely framed.
Best areas to have a mirror:
- East (Health & Family)
- Southeast (Wealth & Abundance)
- North (Career & Path in Life)
Areas to avoid placing a mirror:
- South (Fame & Reputation)
- On the wall directly facing the Main DoorOn the wall(s) facing the Bed.
