JOIN USMirrors are one of the most interesting elements of a home. They not only serve as decor pieces that double up as requirements, but are also known to affect the energy of the space according to the principles of vastu. It is believed that reflecting surfaces hold an incredible ability to cease or deteriorate energy if not placed properly. Thereby, it's important to place mirrors in appropriate positions and orientation for a calm and peaceful life.
A few easy and effortless adjustments in mirror positioning can improve the vibe of your home substantially. So, let's discuss some vastu tips with regard to the positioning of mirrors.
Welcoming prosperity
The kitchen is an important part of the home and it's correlated to well-being and wealth. It is also considered to be the source of 'fire energy' and hence, the placement of mirrors has to be carefully decided. Setting a mirror to reflect visuals of the burner encourages wealth and success. Keeping the mirror behind the stove would also work in a similar way. It is said that placing a mirror in front of a cash locker helps double up wealth, and also increases positive energy.
Coming to mirrors in the bathroom, it is advised that they should be placed on the north or the east wall. This will make the bathroom bright and also have positive effects on your health. Besides, a large mirror can be affixed to the inside of the bathroom door to help restrain negative energy from entering the house.
It's preferable to avoid a mirror in the bedroom. Having said that, we still cannot neglect the significant benefits of having a mirror in a bedroom. It fourfolds the positive energy that penetrates into the room along with sunlight. Abstain from placing a mirror on the corner of your bed as it can have an adverse effect on not just your health but also on your sleep patterns, which may result in insomnia.
To brighten it all up
Also, ensure that the placement of the mirror in your bedroom is such that it doesn't reflect the bed because it may have a negative impact on your health. If you think that a mirror in your bedroom is a necessity, then consider hanging it on the back of your wardrobe door as it would, then, not reflect any energies inside the room. Alternatively, you may use a fabric to cover the mirror while you sleep.
A reflecting surface should be efficiently used to brighten up dark spaces in a house, especially the oddly shaped corners where negative energy could be felt in abundance. Placing a large mirror towards the entrance passage of the house helps to prevent negative energy from entering the house. Place the mirror in such a position that it reflects through a window and spreads lots of positive vibes across the room.
Use mirrors to brighten up dark spaces in the house using natural light instead of artificial ones. Make sure to keep your mirrors spotless as they should look bright and reflect energies without any confusion. Also, when the mirrors are used as correctors in your home, make sure that they are placed at a head height level.
Reflecting goodness
It is of supreme importance that you pay attention to what is getting reflected in the mirrors laid in your home and make sure that whatever they reflect is positive. You should promptly remove any broken mirrors in your home. Also, enclose the mirrors with frames as a sharp-edged, unframed mirror has a tendency to create negative energy that affects not only your health but the overall vibe of your home. Avoid placing mirrors opposite to each other as it encourages restlessness.
Mirrors can not only trigger diverse energies, depending on how you use them, but can also let you multiply different elements around your house. An illustration of that would be to hang a mirror where it reflects a bright, natural view, thus multiplying the energies of the sight.
But remember, placement is not everything. Remember to clean your mirrors often. Hanging a trigram mirror outside your home will stop negative energy from entering your home, thus filling your humble abode with happiness and prosperity!
