In Feng Shui your kitchen is one of the three most
important areas, together with the main door and bedroom.
The kitchen represents the health and wellbeing of the
entire family yet it is best placed in an inauspicious sector based on Eight
Mansions for the Home. This also benefits
the residents if it represents one of their inauspicious sectors based on Personal
Eight Mansions. Calculate your personal Gua number.
Why an inauspicious sector, shouldn't it be an
auspicious sector when it is so important?
Because of its nature and use having the kitchen in an
inauspicious sector will help suppress the negative energies created by an
inauspicious sector. If you have the
choice and are able, positioning it in the Jue Ming (Total Loss) location will
cushion you from the effects of this negative area.
It is also important to ensure that there is not too
much Yang energy outside your kitchen.
Health and wellbeing for residents is supported by the mountain
(sitting) star in Flying Stars Feng Shui and it is Yin (like a still unmoving
mountain is Yin) and so if you have activity outside your kitchen window or
Yang elements it will neutralise the benefit of a positive location inside. These can be, but are certainly not limited
to, a busy road, a well-used playground or school, an electricity pylon or a
river.
Then moving on to the stove, or cooker. Should this also be in an inauspicious sector
within the kitchen?
The stove should be in an auspicious part of the kitchen, because it is
this that provides the food for the family and ultimately affects their health. In addition, the 'fire mouth' or point at
which the heat is activated (in the picture right this is signified by the
knobs) they should face a good direction.
It is beneficial if this represents the Sheng Qi (Good Fortune)
direction of the breadwinner of the home.
When there are two of equal status then you can make the decision which
direction you want to use. This is
especially important when two people belong to opposing groups - West or East
Group.
When you have calculated your Gua number you can find
your group based on your Gua number,
together with your good and bad directions.
We have looked at two different Feng Shui methods
here, Eight Mansions (Home and Personal) and Flying Stars. A consultant will likely use these, as well
as other Feng Shui methods when conducting an audit. The Four Pillars Chart for each resident
(also known as BaZi) will highlight many aspects of your life including health
and wellbeing.
To the fulfillment of your dreams
