The Feng Shui Kitchen

The Feng Shui Kitchen, by purpose and intended function, is ruled by The Fire Element. All of the cooking or baking for the family takes place here, and “fire” or heat is required to accomplish these tasks. In Feng shui, the kitchen is a very special room, as it represents Wealth & Prosperity for those who live in the home.

Feng Shui Mirror Placement

in The Feng Shui Kitchen

• Enlarge a small area by using a mirror to increase wealth; if the kitchen is very small, wealth may be constricted
• If the cook’s back is positioned so that he or she can’t directly see the door leading into the room, then place a mirror above the stove
• Placing a small mirror above the stove will serve to magnify wealth
• if the sink and the stove are directly across from each other, place a small mirror on the front of the stove to break the conflicted energy from The Fire and Water Elements

The Kitchen is dominated by The Fire Element as represented in the cooking range, microwave and oven.

Many Feng Shui consultants consider the Kitchen as the most important room in the house. Because The Fire Element is dominant in the kitchen by nature of its intention - to heat and cook our food, it is highly advisable to focus on balancing The Five Elements here.

For more on The Fire Element.......

• The sink and the stove should not be side-by-side, as The Water Element and The Fire Element work against each other. Place a wooden cutting board or wood table between the stove and the sink to separate the two opposing Elements
• Keep your work area clutter-free and store knives inside drawers
• Clean all cupboards and appliances, both inside and outside; throw away out-dated packaged food
• If possible, keep trash and recycling bins out of view, as their appearance in an eating area is not pleasant
• If you have multiple doorways leading into your kitchen, Chi Flow may rush through one door and out another very quickly. The goal is to encourage Chi Flow to slow down as it enters the area, but not to stagnate due to clutter or obstructions.
• Hang a 40mm multi-faceted crystal in the center of the room to ensure that the Chi Flow is smooth and regulated.
