If you are in a hurry and your living space or work space needs better energy flow, consider using Feng Shui mirror placement as a quick fix. Mirrors are a part of Feng Shui's reflective nature.
Just as water reflects your image and surrounding scenery, mirrors reflect more so. It is no wonder then, that mirrors are considered good luck in Feng Shui.
In terms of decorating, mirrors have a powerful role. They bring the positive energy of the water element into a space. Because of their reflective properties, they can deflect any negative energy back to its source. This prevents negative energy or from entering the space. Another word for energy in Feng Shui is "chi." Feng Shui Placement Of Mirrors
So when it comes to quick fixes for a space, here are the top 8 ways to use the mirror:
If your room is above a garage, keep the oppressive mechanical energy from permeating up to your room by putting a mirror face down under your bed.
If your cooking position faces away from the entrance to the kitchen, place a mirror in front of the chef so that they can see who enters behind them.
If your office desk and chair face away from the entrance, put a mirror on your desk so that you can maintain a commanding position.
If you want to open an entrance with a narrow hallway, place the mirror to the side and not directly in front of the door so you won't reflect energy back outside.
If you can't see pleasing views of the outdoors, position a mirror so that you can.
Don't face two mirrors in towards each other and block the chi.
If you have a mirror on your path to the bedroom bath area, cover it at night to avoid too much energy from keeping you awake.
If you have a house with low ceilings, place a mirror above your head to reflect the oppressive energy upwards away from you and your shoulders.
