‘Sparkling clean mirrors invite positive chi’

Mirrors are known as aspirin in Feng Shui. They are not only powerful in correcting the flaws of the house, but also bring amazing results to double the wealth and opportunities in life, provided they are rightly placed.

A mirror placed opposite the main door of the house bounces the incoming energy straight back out of the door, preventing the life force or the cosmic energy to enter and nourish its inhabitants.

Instead mirrors on the side walls help to draw in the chi from the main door, which then circulates smoothly in the house.

Sparkling clean mirrors invite positive chi.

Stay away from tarnished or tinted mirrors as they bring in bad energy.

Always buy good quality and new mirrors.

Avoid antique mirrors as they may contain unpleasant energies of the previous owners.

Mirrors should be well framed to contain the chi of the image.

Raw and sharp edges send out negative energy.

Houses that have an irregular shape can be very effectively remedied with the correct positioning of mirrors.

The placement should be made on the internal walls in such a way that it creates an illusion of space and depth in the missing area. Mirrors can also be used to create an illusion of more space in an otherwise cramped room.

Mirrors should always be hung flat against a wall instead of leaning forward.

Mirrors should always be placed in such a way that the tallest person in the house can see his reflection without having any part of his head cut off.

All our dreams and ambitions lie here and if cut off, our ambitions and dreams never come true.

It is not uncommon to see mirrors in a washroom, where one has to bend to see ones reflection.

If you bend while looking into the mirror, it will affect the level of confidence in you.

Whereas, by standing erect with your head straight makes you a more confident individual.

Fragmented mirrors reflect a distorted image of you, which in turn leads to fragmentation in your personality.

Throw away cracked and broken mirrors, as they are considered extremely inauspicious.

Never place mirrors on the southern wall.

The south represents name, fame and recognition and is ruled by the fire element.

Since mirrors represent water, they are not compatible with the fire and vibrant energy of the south.

This results in extinguishing your name and fame.

This will also deprive you of your services being acknowledged in office and home.

Two mirrors hung on opposite walls would play havoc with the energy that moves to and from between them like a ping-pong ball.

Beds should not be sandwiched between two mirrors placed on opposite walls as it creates friction between the couples.

Since mirrors are powerful transmitters of energy, too many mirrors in the house can make one feel dizzy and nauseous.

Mirrors can be effectively used in the salons, restaurants, and jewellery stores to give the illusion of large number of customers and products.

Place a mirror in such a way that it reflects your cash box at work place and your wealth cupboard at home to double your cash in-flow. Stocks displayed in shops look twice as much when they are well reflected by the mirrors.

Hand mirrors should always be kept with their face down.

Extra mirrors should be stored with their reflective side facing the wall or floor.

Still better if they are covered by a thick cloth.

Ensure that the mirror does not reflect the commode in the toilet.

Do not place mirrors on the ceiling of any room whether it is a bedroom, study or the toilet.

Never have mirrors in the prayer room, as they magnify the surrounding energy in a very strong way and this is the room where the ambience has to be really calm and quiet for you to sit and meditate.
