Feng Shui in the Kitchen - An Overview
Dr. Michael Oon
The Modern Kitchen has evolved from its humble beginnings. It just had a cooker (or stove), sink for washing and food preparation and a food storage area.
Now it is a sophisticated room with numerous electrical appliances, storage areas and workspace. In many homes, it is the most expensive and well equipped of all the rooms.
As it is an inauspicious room, where energy drains away, there are a number of locations where the kitchen should not be located. Also, there are the elements of the various appliances that clash. Therefore, thought has to be given for the best location of these appliances.
The colour of the kitchen and the directional placement of the cooker is determined by the Kua number of the head of household and tiles are used to protect the surface of the walls in the appropriate parts of the kitchen.
Mirrors, a frequently used tool in Feng Shui, should not be used.
As the Kitchen is an energy-draining room, there is no point in using Decorations, Plants, Water Features or aquariums or lighting for Feng Shui purposes.
However, the kitchen is the communications hub for the family, it would be suitable to place aspiration and inspiration pictures for everyone.
And finally, there is a step by step guide to implement Feng Shui in the Kitchen, together with Rules for the kitchen and some Tips.
