According to the theory of the Five Elements, the east belongs to wood and the south belongs to fire, so the stove belonging to fire should face the direction of south where fire is strong. The orientation of the stove facing the east or south is in line with the five elements.
Taboos on the orientation of the kitchen stove
1. The stove should not be located in the northwest
In Feng Shui, the northwest position belongs to the Qian Gua position, which represents Heaven represents the position of the main economic person in the family, and is often used to represent the father or the male master. If the kitchen stove is located in this position, it will definitely be detrimental to the men in the family. Because the kitchen stove needs to be turned on to cook, there is a lot of oil smoke, sewage, and moisture, which will affect men's health, career, and wealth. In addition, the northwest is the direction of Tianmen, and the five elements belong to gold. When cooking and turning on the fire, it will become a "fire burning Tianmen" situation, which is a taboo in Feng Shui. After all, fire destroying metal is not good and is very detrimental to kitchen Feng Shui.
2. The stove should not face the indoor door
Whether it is the kitchen door or the bedroom door, the stove should not conflict with it. After all, the stove is full of fire. Once it is opposite to the door, it will If there is a tendency to eliminate evil spirits, it will be bad for home feng shui. At the least, it can make family members grumpy, causing more quarrels in the family, and money will be lost; at worst, it can affect people's health, causing them to suffer from diseases. If this happens for a long time, their health will be very poor. Regardless of Feng Shui factors, the stove is not suitable for facing the bedroom door. After all, the stove is a cooking utensil. Not only is it noisy when used, but it also contains heavy oil stains. If it is opposite to the bedroom door, it will inevitably affect the ability to rest inside. People will also cause oil fumes to enter the bedroom and worsen the air quality
3. Avoid placing the stove in the center of the kitchen
The stove should be placed against the wall and should not be placed in the center of the kitchen. Because there is no support around the center, from the perspective of Feng Shui, the family fortune will be unstable, the family will be easily dispersed, and the money will be easily dispersed, leading to disasters such as leakage and loss of wealth. On the contrary, if there is a support behind the stove, it means that the family has a backer, and everything will go smoothly, the family will be stable, and the wealth will be prosperous
