Requirements for the arrangement of the kitchen
The kitchen should ideally occupy the southern parthome, associated with Fire, or eastern, associated with Wood. The most unfavorable position of the kitchen is the northern part of the house. It is not recommended to arrange the kitchen in the center of the house and near the entrance. In the first case, the inhabitants of the house will often quarrel, and in the second, money will quickly leave the family. If your kitchen is a walk-through, then you need to remove the emergency exit or separate it, for example, with a sideboard, a low wall or flowers, and hang a mirror on the opposite wall. You cannot place a bathroom and toilet next to the kitchen, since in this case all the accumulated money will be washed away by water. If it is impossible to re-plan the layout of the rooms, then Feng Shui suggests placing a wind chime or a crystal near the entrance to the kitchen. They neutralize negative energy and transform it into positive. The use of pastel shades is ideal for the kitchen. The color of the kitchen according to Feng Shui should not be conspicuous. It is preferable to decorate the kitchen in green, yellow, brown, orange and white colors. It is not recommended to use red and blue shades. In addition, black and blue colors, symbolizing Water, cannot be used in the southern zone - the Fire zone, and Metal colors - in the eastern part, the Wood zone. All piercing utensils (knives, forks, scissors) should be stored in a closed drawer: they cause negative sha energy. This energy leads to deterioration of health and well-being. The dining table should be round or oval. An even number of chairs are placed near it. All cabinet shelves should be closed. The best material for a sink is stainless steel (the element of Metal), which destroys harmful energy. Feng Shui recommends decorating the kitchen with indoor plants that attract favorable chi energy. You cannot decorate the room with dried or artificial plants: they are considered dead. It is desirable to have a vase of fruit in the kitchen. The ideal fruits are oranges, symbolizing happiness and prosperity. In kitchen feng shui decor, it is recommended to use the number 9: 9 oranges, 9 cups, 9 lamps on the ceiling. It represents happiness. The ideal placement of the refrigerator is in the south-east or south-west zone. Feng shui experts recommend placing a mirror on the bottom shelf of the refrigerator. It multiplies the number of products.
The plate is a symbol of well-being
The main object in the kitchen is the stove, whichis a symbol of well-being, the queen of the kitchen and its heart. It is advisable to place it near the southern wall, where Fire reigns. You cannot place the stove in the corner or near the window. If you do not comply with this requirement, then the money will evaporate. It is best to point the stove at the center of the house, and worst of all - at the main entrance: all residents will feel a lack of money. The stove should always be perfectly clean, like the entire kitchen. If something is not going well in your life, then first of all, clean the stove, and you will immediately notice improvements. The ideal option is such a location of the stove, when the person standing at the stove can see everyone who enters the kitchen. But if this is not possible, then hang a mirror above the stove. You need to use all the burners. It is advisable to light them in turn. If you comply with the above requirements, then the feng shui of the kitchen will always be favorable and will attract wealth and prosperity to the house.
