Feng Shui Mirror Placement for Good Luck

Have you ever noticed a happier atmosphere at home after cleaning your house or redecorating a room?

Feng Shui is not some new trend. Since ancient times people are using it to make energy flow.

It is a philosophy and can be used by anyone alongside any belief system.

It is a skill, and with practice, you will be able to position furniture, change mirror placement and other items within the environment as you become more aware of your surroundings.

Sometimes just moving a piece of furniture to another corner of the room makes all the difference in the energy.

Have you ever feel uncomfortable when you step in a room and out of the blue decide to turn it around?

Do you sometimes feel that you have that urge to change curtains, cushions or move a sofa or dining table to another place?

So why not use your intuition and apply good Feng Shui techniques to shift the energy positively in your house?

Have you noticed how do you feel after a “Spring clean”? Just opening a window feels refreshing, but it can also bring fresh energy and repeals the negative energy!

For me, it is essential while I am cleaning my house to have good thoughts. It is not just a physical cleaning; it is much more than that.

But how does it work? Or what exactly does it mean? How can we use it to promote luck and attract good fortune?

To answer that question, firstly we need to talk about “the energy” around us. “The Chi”.

What is “Chi” or “Qi”

Let’s be straightforward and say that Chi or Qi is the energy that runs through everything.

Feng Shui is the mixture of our “chi” and the environment we live in. By learning how to use it would help to harmonize the positive energy in the direction we desire.

It sounds simple, right? Well, I mentioned on my other post about “believing”, so you might like to have a read on it here.

I am writing from my own experience as I tried and it worked for me.

It is also a way to think positively as you are creating something in your head and you are believing and sending the message to the Universe.

It would be an excellent start to make things happen by making simple changes in the environment.

How to Benefit by Using Mirrors Placement in our Home 

Well, many celebrities and businesses are using Feng Shui and for good reason, so why not you?

If we can feel better in a pleasant and fresh environment, it makes sense to enhance where we live with simple changes and not spending a fortune!

By simple changes, I mean, redecorating a room or move some furniture to different places or add or remove mirrors to promote good fortune.

So, let’s talk about the use of where to place a mirror:

A mirror reflects, right? So mirrors will reflect back the chi into the room.

If you learn where you should be placing mirrors according to Feng Shui, it will reflect and bring good vibes into your life and amplify the good energy in your home!

Have a look at your house. What are your mirrors reflecting right now?

Remember it’s also the “intention”, “the feeling”, so when you looking into the mirror, to have positive thoughts and create your desire from this moment.

5 Tips to Use Mirrors

1. Mirrors can be used to fix an issue, or better explained, to let the energy flows in a dormant area or long corridors where the chi rushes.
2. All mirrors should have frames and be kept clean. Never hold a broken mirror and make sure it reflects your whole image.
3. It also shouldn’t have joins or mirror tiles and make sure not to hang mirrors opposite beds, doors or hang a mirror facing another mirror (see below).
4. You can also use mirrors in quiet or dull areas as under the stairs, a basement, a loft, a dark space, etc.
5. By choosing an area where the natural light reflects is a simple way of using mirrors.

Let’s see some examples below:

Living Room Decorating – The basics Tips

The living room is about the family, reunion and feeling good together.

It is essential that the chairs are against the wall (protected), and there is a lot of space in front of you.

In the picture above, you can see a beautiful sitting room and a mirrored coffee table in the center.

The picture shows an excellent example of how to use mirrors in the Living room with a bit of twist and imagination!

So, what’s the mirror reflecting in this room? The windows and the light from the outside. This is the energy we want inside!

That’s the principle.  Just be careful in adding a mirror right opposite a window if it is not reflecting inside the room.

A convex mirror is also a good idea to place a mirror in a corner.

Good Fortune Symbol: Pi Xiu

As a curiosity, I am adding some information about the Pi Xiu legend.

Pi Xiu, is a hybrid mythical creature with a Chinese dragon head and a body of a lion. It represents strength and agility.

An interesting legend says that this creature once defecated on the floor of Heaven. Because of that, he was punished by spanking, which caused its rectum to be permanently sealed. Additionally, his diet would be just gold, silver and jewels. Pi Xiu he could eat but cannot expel it!

As Pi Xiu represents a symbol of acquisition and preservation of wealth, it is used in Feng Shui, especially to help those who are going through a bad year.

• Do not touch their mouth of Pi Xiu or placed in the bathroom or kitchen as it would ruin the wealth.

Maybe a good option to keep it very closed to us wherever we go?

Bathrooms and especially toilets are knowing of a place that drains the energy of the house.

Toilets seats should always be closed. I know, it’s difficult when you have men in the house, but it’s worth trying even if you need to put a note on the toilet seat or change to one that closes automatically.

Mirrors in the bathroom should never reflect the toilet seat, so place them like the picture above or behind the door and keep the bathroom door always closed.

How to Place Mirrors in the Bedroom for Luck?

It’s charming to see big wardrobes reflecting a beautiful bed, right? Well, it is a big No-No.

So, keep mirrors in the bedroom it to a minimum, if possible cover them when you are sleeping.

The picture below is an example of a mirror in a bedroom using Feng Shui. It is not reflecting the bed, and it is reflecting lovely flowers and the natural light from the window.

Yin and Yang

This is the Yin and Yang symbol.  Yin represents the dark, cold, negative and feminine.

Yang represents the white, the hotter, decisive and masculine. Both need to be balanced and complementing each other.

You can help this balance bring more Yin or Yang into your life according to your needs.

For example, if you are feeling cold or have frequent illnesses or depression, this means the Yin is high. To balance you can wear bright colours, do martial arts and get rid of clutter.

When the Yang is high, you might have dry skin, suffer from stress or in need to be in control. To balance and bring more Yin, it is recommended to meditate, wear clothes in pastel colours and get close to nature.

Feng Shui Bedrooms and Beds

The bed position is vital. Try to place the bed away or in front of the door.

Also do not place the bed against a wall that is annexed to a bathroom. If this is not possible, use wallpaper, fabric or any other wall covering to balance the energy.

Natural materials as wool or cotton are the best choice for a mattress instead of synthetic materials. Cotton futons are also recommended as it supports the chi flow.

The bed is also another essential part of the furniture that you need to think about when decorating your bedroom.

You can transform your room into a Feng Shui bedroom, by just re-positioning your bed or choosing one made of wood frames, this will attract more Yin.

To enhance your relationship, add some bright colours in your room. Yellow bedding is ideal, and you will have a perfect Feng Shui Bed. See the picture below:

Feng Shui Bedroom Colours

You don’t need to spend a fortune buying new furniture or expensive bed clothing or curtains. Just by making your house a Feng Shui House, the energy can flow harmonically.

You can simply use colours and objects that you already have or add flowers in the right spot!

If you find it difficult to coordinate colours and decorate your house beautifully let’s have a look at the basics of the colour wheel so we can use the colour coordination with Feng Shui.

It would be easier as we are talking about “Feng Shui” if we relate the colours with the four elements: Fire, Earth, Air and  Water.

We can also link de colours with the seasons: Spring, Summer, Autumn and Winter.

So, let’s see below:

When we are decorating, we shouldn’t have any strict rules. We want to be comfortable and around things and colours that we like.

However, we can add some sparkle by using Feng-Shui to enhance all the goods the Universe can bring to our lives.

Follow your instincts and if you do not like a colour or an object in your house: Change it! Move it! Get rid of it! Do something, and you see how you feel.

Think about what you would like to bring to your life as good fortune. See some examples below:

Orange and Cream colours can create a warm room so that you could use on walls, frames, flowers, cushions.

Greens and natural plants are an excellent source to add to your decoration, especially when you feel a need for new ideas or need a change to happen.

Blue is peaceful and can make a room restful and help free the mind from worries and confusion. 

Purple and Violet: To get the purple tone, we need to mix red and blue so purple represents the change, the transition to go up to the next level.

It has expansive energy and brings a new dynamism to our lives.
