Five taboos for shoe cabinet placement in Feng Shui
1. Avoid facing the door
< p>Usually we place it on the side of the entrance door, whether it is the left or right side, we can decide according to the direction in which the entrance door of our home is pushed. If the door opens from left to right, the shoe cabinet should be placed on the left side; otherwise, it should be placed on the right side. However, it should be noted that the shoe cabinet must not be placed directly opposite the door to avoid bringing evil spirits into the room.2. Avoid being too high
Generally speaking, its height should not exceed 1/3 of the floor height of the house, and it should not exceed the height of the homeowner. This is because in Feng Shui, the top is genius, the middle is talent, and the bottom is earth talent. Shoes are items worn to protect the feet, so they belong to the earth. If it is too tall and occupies the middle person, it will affect the physical and mental health of the whole family.
3. Avoid flashy colors
Since it is placed at the entrance, its color should not be too flashy, and it is not suitable to choose bright red, otherwise there will be "redness when you go out" This means that it is harmful to our health and safety. In Feng Shui, shoe cabinets should be hidden rather than exposed, and should be simple and elegant rather than flashy.
4. Avoid placing them in the bedroom
Since our shoes are mostly used outdoors, it is inevitable that they will get a lot of dust and stains during walking. If the shoe cabinet is placed in the bedroom, it will not only affect the cleanliness of the bedroom, but also easily affect your marriage in terms of Feng Shui and easily cause quarrels between husband and wife.
5. Avoid placing shoes in an untidy manner
For shoes that we do not wear temporarily, it is best to wash them clean and then place them in the shoe cabinet. What we need to pay special attention to is that the direction of the toe of the shoe can only be facing inward and not outward. Otherwise, every time we open the shoe cabinet to get shoes, the toe of the shoe will be facing us, which will form a fire evil, which will be harmful to our health over time. Health hazard.
