In Feng Shui, the kitchen is not only the
place where food is stored and prepared, it is also associated with
healing, wellbeing. The kitchen is sometimes consider to be the soul of the house. The kitchen is also the part of the home that both affects and
is influenced by the mother energy of the home. The kitchen has all the
important elements to keep members of the family together for love,
patience, unity and compassion. It is very important to make some effort
to ensure our kitchen enjoys a good feng shui, so as to bring luck to the
members. Here are some ideas on
how to create harmonious Chi in your kitchen to bring good luck to the
entire household.
1
KITCHEN TOWARDS THE BACK
OF YOUR HOUSE
Never position your kitchen near the
front door. One of the best place to locate your kitchen is towards
the back of your house. This will allow the good Chi to enter your
house.
2
KITCHEN SHOULD NEVER BE
IN THE NORTHWEST
Kitchen should never be located in the
Northwest of your house because it will bring negative elements to
the family. NorthWest corner of the house represents the place where
heaven energy pours into the the house. Having a NorthWest kitchen
will cause good fortune dissolved by the fire. However if your
kitchen is already located there then try to move the stove or rice
cooker away from the NorthWest of the kitchen. In other words, move
any implement that causes fire energy to be created away from this
sector. Otherwise the family breadwinner could lose his job, lose
his wealth and worse, lose his health.

KITCHEN SHOULD BE WELL
VENTILATED
Ensure kitchen is well lighted up, aired
and spaced. Always let fresh air through. It should be kept clean to
encourage a good energy flow. Stale kitchen fumes build up into
adverse Chi, affecting the luck of the household.
4
TOILETS
If you have a toilet in your kitchen,
ensure the toilet door is kept closed at all times. Ensure
that your toilet do not directly face your stove, as it will affect
the food being cooked, resulting bad luck for the family.
5
WATER AND FIRE
For harmony, the stove or cooker which
is fire elements should be placed some distance away from the fridge
and sink, both of which are water elements. Any clashes of the
elements, can result in quarrelling between family members. Ensure
taht they are not placed opposite each other.

POSITIONING KITCHEN
EQUIPMENTS
The wealth of family members is very
much influenced by the way the family stove, oven or rice-cooker is
positioned. The rice cooker that cooks the rice for a particular
individual should always have its input energy coming from the
individual’s auspicious directions. The husband's direction is
always consider more important than the wife's direction.
The cooker or hob is an important
appliance. It can be placed in the centre of the kitchen so that the
cook looks out into all areas of the kitchen and is never started
while cooking. If you place your cooker against a wall, and your
back faces the door while you are cooking, you should hang a mirror
above the cooker which will enable you to look into the room as you
work.
