Feng Shui Analysis of Common Feng Shui Problems and Taboos of Mirrors in Homes
Introduction: Mirrors are a relatively special item in Feng Shui. Because of their unique characteristics, mirrors have different Feng Shui effects and functions. Mirrors are very common in homes. Some people even use them as decorative items. So, what are the common feng shui issues and taboos regarding mirrors in homes? Let’s find out together! Mr. Shui Mo’s Feng Shui special topic contains more articles about Feng Shui, allowing you to understand Feng Shui knowledge more quickly.

Taboos on the location and placement of Feng Shui mirrors in the home

In daily life, mirrors are a necessity for people. No one wants to go out with unkempt hair and dirty appearance, so people who love beauty have a special feeling for the mirror. "I comb my hair by the window and put on my makeup in front of the mirror." Of course, mirrors have other functions besides being used to tidy up one's appearance. A plane mirror is a necessity in our daily life and is commonly seen in our homes, while a Bagua mirror is used to ward off evil spirits and ghosts. Concave and convex mirrors are used in mirror feng shui to have the effect of warding off evil spirits.
In home Feng Shui, each direction has a different aura and force. The placement of mirrors in your home cannot be done casually according to your mood, because mirrors actually have feng shui. The southwest corner of the home represents Kun Gua and also represents the earth element in the five elements. The southwest direction belongs to the earth, which carries negative energy, villains, and a depressed import and export aura. Therefore, if you place a mirror in the southwest, it will often attract villains. Therefore, the first thing to consider when placing a mirror is the direction.
Mirrors were used to ward off evil spirits in ancient times. We place mirrors in our homes mostly to tidy up the fluff. So please note that mirrors should not be placed facing the door, because the door is the air outlet and mirrors have evil spirits. If they are placed facing the door, they will block the magnetic field and prevent wealth from entering the door. Especially in front of the front door of the house, you must not put a mirror. However, if you hang a small mirror on the door, it can block the evil spirits and negative energy. So many people like to hang a mirror on the door.
However, every advantage has its disadvantages. If you hang a mirror in front of the door, the Door God and the God of Wealth will be scared away by the mirror god, which means you are blocking the God of Wealth. In addition, if you are a businessman, it will lead to career setbacks and over-borrowing. So you can't have both. Putting a mirror at the door will block out evil spirits but at the same time it will also keep wealth out of the door. Therefore, if you understand the Feng Shui of mirrors, you can use it to improve your Feng Shui luck.
The same applies to the bedroom. It is not advisable to have a mirror directly facing the bed. If the mirror faces the bed, it may not matter if you are in good health, but if you are not in good spirits, you will definitely be scared. Especially at night when the Yang energy is weak, people are most afraid of having a mirror facing the bed. Knowing this, mirrors on dressing tables, mirrors on wardrobes, and even mirrors hanging on the wall should not face the desk or bed. Because mirrors are yin in nature, facing people for a long time will affect their aura.
Mirrors cannot be embedded in the ceiling. Many people like to install reflective mirrors such as mosaics on the suspended ceiling when decorating their homes. In fact, this is not a good thing. If the mirror is on the ceiling, it will usually consume the energy, money, and health of the people below. There is a saying in Feng Shui: "If the mirror is facing down, there will be fights all day long. If the mirror is facing up, the family business will not be prosperous." If the mirror is facing downwards, it will affect the relationship among family members.
It is forbidden to install mirrors behind the sofa background wall. Mirrors have the Feng Shui function of transforming energy. According to the Feng Shui theory of the Azure Dragon on the left, the White Tiger on the right, the Vermillion Bird in front and the Black Tortoise behind, we need to have something behind our seat to feel safe and secure. What does it mean to have a backer? It means to have your back against a solid wall. However, if there is a solid wall behind our seats as a backrest, but a mirror is installed on the solid wall, then this mirror weakens the backrest function of the solid wall, and it becomes virtual.

1. Small mirrors are very particular about the placement of mirrors at home. Other things to know

In addition to knowing how to place mirrors in the bedroom and living room, there are also some things you need to know about placing mirrors in other spaces of the home. To avoid disaster, it is best to take a closer look.
Mirrors should be placed in the bathroom. The bathroom must have a mirror and it can be slightly larger. It can reflect away dirty air and serve as a dressing table. In addition, it can also increase the visual area and expand the visual space.
The mirror should be placed in the entrance hall. This will not only prevent it from reflecting the door god or the god of wealth, but also make the entrance hall, which represents wealth, have the effect of increasing its space. However, if the mirror is found to be cracked, it must be replaced immediately, otherwise there will be a bloody disaster.
It is not advisable to place a mirror facing the kitchen stove. If a mirror faces the kitchen stove, it will cause a conflict between the mirror god and the stove god, which will easily cause physical illness to family members. Women are prone to gynecological diseases, and men will often beat their wives for inexplicable reasons.
It is not advisable to place a mirror facing the table dedicated to gods. It is disrespectful to gods if the mirror faces the table. If the mirror faces the table directly, it is not only disrespectful to gods, but also will cause bad conflicts. The gods who originally resided in the house to protect people will leave because of the conflict caused by the mirror.
Two mirrors should not be hung facing each other, because this will cause qi energy disorder, moving back and forth instead of moving forward.

2. Don’t underestimate the Feng Shui of mirrors. Take a closer look at the five Feng Shui functions of mirrors.

The reason why mirrors affect people's destiny is mainly because mirrors have four major Feng Shui functions. These functions enable the mirror to affect the indoor magnetic field and thus influence the fortune of the people in the house.
1. The role of mirrors in converting energy. According to the Feng Shui theory of Azure Dragon on the left, White Tiger on the right, Vermillion Bird in front and Black Tortoise behind, we need to have a backer behind our seat to feel safe and secure. What does it mean to have a backer? It means to have your back against a solid wall. However, if there is a solid wall behind our seats as a backrest, but a mirror is installed on the solid wall, then this mirror weakens the backrest function of the solid wall, and it becomes virtual.
2. The role of mirrors in introducing energy. For example, when a room is insufficiently lit, mirrors can be used to introduce light energy to increase the brightness in the room. However, be careful not to place mirrors outdoors to reflect sunlight directly into the room.
3. The role of mirrors in virtual energy. Why does Feng Shui repeatedly emphasize that mirrors should not be placed facing the bed? Because the bedroom is the most private place in our lives, and the bed is the most private place in the bedroom. From the perspective of Feng Shui theory, these places are off-limits to outsiders. However, since mirrors have the Feng Shui function of virtual energy, when people are active in the bedroom, the mirror will also virtualize the energy of a human figure, which is a sign of "outsiders entering", which is obviously contrary to the Feng Shui theory of "outsiders are not allowed to enter".
4. The effect of mirrors on destructive energy: When indoor mirrors are damaged, incomplete, blurred, etc., it is recommended to replace them immediately. Otherwise, it will bring some negative energy information into the house, which will affect the owner's life.
5. The mirror can ward off evil spirits. When there is a sharp corner outdoors facing our house, it will form a sharp corner evil, which will cause villains, disputes, injuries, bloodshed, etc. According to the principles of Feng Shui, we only need to install a mirror facing this sharp corner, and use the image of a sharp corner in the mirror to balance the evil spirits formed by the sharp corner outdoors facing our house, and thus the sharp corner evil can be eliminated.

3. Don’t let mirrors disturb your fortune. Taboos on placing mirrors in bedrooms and living rooms

Given the effect that mirrors have on indoor energy, if they are placed in the wrong place, they can bring us unpleasant things. Bedrooms and living rooms are actually not very suitable spaces for mirrors, but now many people like to place mirrors in bedrooms and living rooms. Therefore, you need to know some taboos about placing mirrors in the bedroom and living room.
1. Taboos on placing mirrors in the bedroom: Mirrors should not be placed facing the head of the bed: because mirrors reflect light, which can cause neurasthenia, poor sleep quality and other adverse reactions. If a mirror is facing the bed, when people fall asleep, their energy is weak and it is easy for the mirror to reflect the energy in their body, making them dizzy. If the mirror is facing the bed, you can install a cloth cover on the mirror and put the cover down when you sleep.
Mirrors should not face windows: If the mirror faces the bedroom window, if there are too many unlucky objects outside the window, which will be reflected inside the house, it will be harmful to the owner's health. It will also cause horror, fear, nightmares, etc. in the middle of the night, seriously affecting a person's normal sleep and making people depressed over time.
Mirrors should not face the door: the bedroom door is often closed. When you get up to go to the toilet in the middle of the night or go out for something, if the mirror faces the door, it will reflect a person's shadow, which is scary. If there is a significant other sleeping with you, it will make your significant other feel weird, and feel as if he or she is sleepwalking or having a nightmare while half awake.
2. Mirrors in the living room should not be placed facing the living room door: the living room is where guests visit and family members discuss matters, and the living room door is also the place where people enter and exit most frequently. If the mirror is reflected in it, it will seriously affect the relationship between family members, as well as the interpersonal relationships of the entire family members outside, and the house will become even colder.
Mirrors should not be embedded in the ceiling of the living room: It is best not to embed mirrors in the ceiling of the living room, as this will make people sitting in the living room feel depressed. At the same time, the material used for the ceiling should not have a mirror-like effect.
Mirrors should not be placed in the wealth position of the living room: Placing a mirror in the wealth position will affect the wealth of the entire family. Generally speaking, the wealth position of the living room is the left and right diagonals of the front door. It is best not to place mirrors in these positions.
