Where Are Your Mirrors?
Frequently Asked Questions
Why is a mirror facing the bed considered bad feng shui?
Traditional feng shui holds that a mirror facing the bed doubles and disturbs your energy while you sleep — a vulnerable, restorative state — and some traditions specifically warn it can amplify relationship or health issues. The common fix is repositioning the mirror, covering it at night, or moving the bed out of its reflection.
Is a mirror facing the front door always bad?
A mirror directly facing and reflecting the front door is traditionally discouraged because it's believed to bounce incoming positive energy (chi) straight back out before it can circulate through the home. A mirror slightly to the side of the entrance, rather than directly opposite the door, is generally considered fine or even beneficial.
Are mirrors ever good in feng shui?
Yes — mirrors are considered powerful energy amplifiers when placed well. Common favorable placements include reflecting a dining table (to double abundance), reflecting a stove (to double nourishment), or brightening a dark hallway or small room. See also our Front Door / Entrance Analyzer.
