Usually, not much thought is given to bathrooms, especially when it comes to Feng Shui as they are thought of as “taboo” areas of the home. However, it is in the toilet that the greatest amount of negative energy accumulates. Therefore, it is important to protect the home from the destructive force and equip the bathroom according to Feng Shui bathroom tips.

Some Feng Shui masters suggest making the bathroom as small as possible, keeping it out of sight, and even away from the main house. I do not support such extremes! In this article, I want to share with you the adjusted (for modern living) Feng Shui bathroom tips, taboos, and cures.

The Bathroom And Sha Chi

The theory of Feng Shui is based on one important rule: when Chi is entering the house it should be dispersed throughout the rooms without obstacles. This harmonious Chi flow is very important for maintaining harmony and peace in the house, attracting prosperity and health.

Chi does not like it when the house is messy when there is a lot of junk. Such an environment can disrupt its circulation and turn vital energy into a negative force that leads to relationship problems, money loss, diseases, and all kinds of troubles.

The bathroom is the most vulnerable place for Sha Chi energy.

Sha Chi, or “killing Chi”, is the Chi that has low Feng Shui energy vibes. It originates from negative surroundings and can cause various detrimental effects. It brings misery and disease.

Often Sha is formed in places where it is dark and dusty. Such energy is carried by withered flowers, garbage and old things, dirty dishes, and cobwebs. It is associated with bad odors, called Sha-odors, which often accumulate in the toilet room.

Sha is able to get into the toilet and toilet tank. It is able to go through different holes and disappear together with the drafts through the window.

When flushing water, a large amount of energy is destroyed, and with it, well-being. However, this will not affect the Feng Shui of your house if you follow the 7 Feng Shui bathroom tips described below!

7 Feng Shui Bathroom Tips

Now let me share with you how to Feng Shui your bathroom so it doesn’t affect the energy of the entire house in a bad way.

Tip #1: Make sure that your bathroom is not located in the Northwest or Southwest sector of your house

The first and most important thing you should watch out is where your bathroom is located. Check out what sector it occupies by using the Bagua map.

Make sure that your bathroom is not located in the Northwest or Southwest sector of your house! The Northwest represents the Patriarch and a toilet here flushes down his luck. Similarly with the Southwest sector that represents the Matriarch.

The element of Northwest is Metal. In the bathroom the dominant element is Water. Now ask yourself: how does Water affect Metal? That’s right – water covers metal with rust! That can’t be good for Feng Shui of your house, right? In addition, the drains in the bathroom are the place through which the energy leaves the house.

This situation has a tangible impact on a man – he has no energy, no power, it’s hard for him to support his family and express his masculinity. If a man is inherently weak, he will continue to live in such a house, staying on the sidelines. But if his nature is strong, he will leave such a house sooner or later.

The Southwest bathroom weakens the hostess of the house, disconnects her from the partner and family. According to statistics, a very large percentage of single women have a Southwest toilet.

It’s also bad for business because it leads to an inability to establish good partnerships. And if a businesswoman has such a bathroom the problem doubles.

If you already live in a house with a bathroom in the Northwest or Southwest sector, and you cannot change the layout of rooms, then at least spend a bit of money to make sure the toilet bowl itself is not located in the Northwest or Southwest of the bathroom.

Tip #2: Avoid golden bathtubs and toilets!

To have a golden bathtub or even a toilet is not just vulgar, it is very bad Feng Shui. It doesn’t even have to be real gold for it to bring bad luck, because tubs wash things away, and when you line your tubs with gold, you symbolically flush or drain away your money luck every time you use your tub.

It’s better to go for regular stainless steel tubs, and regular materials like ceramic, plastic, or Perspex toilet seats.

Tip #3: Do not locate your toilet above the main door

This is a major taboo!

Your main door sector is your most important sector of all! Therefore you should always check for this taboo before putting down that down-payment for your new dream house.

If you already live in such a house and have been suffering a bit of bad luck after moving in, it is so worth your while to spend the money to make some changes – either to the location of your bathroom or to your main door. This configuration is one of the most dangerous ones!

Tip #4: Make sure the toilets do not share walls with beds

When designing your bathroom, make sure your toilet does not share a wall with your bed. It’s OK to have the bedroom right next to the bathroom. But just make sure that something less inauspicious shares the other side of your bed wall. Like a mirror, or sink, or bathtub.

Tip #5: The bathroom can be big, but the toilet should be small

The taboo associated with bathrooms is usually specifically confined to the toilet bowl, so if you have a beautiful big spa-like bathroom, it is OK. Just remember to keep the actual toilet small. It is better to confine the toilet in a small room within the bathroom. And make sure you keep the door to your toilet closed at all times when not in use.

Tip #6: Choose the right color scheme

Feng Shui colors can be divided into two groups: yin and yang. When decorating your bathroom, make sure you’re not making it too yin with colors.

Bedrooms are good when slightly more yin than yang, as bedrooms are where you’re meant to relax and sleep. Bathrooms, although they’re meant for relaxing, are also where you scrub and cleanse yourself, so it should be a touch more yang than yin.

So go for colors that are bright rather than dark. Whites, creams, and pastels work a lot better for bathrooms than blacks, maroons, or khakis.

If you go for a dark color, make sure the walls contrast nicely by painting them a complimentary light color. As long as you have balance, and the balance is tipped in favor of yang, you should achieve a good color scheme.

Tip #7: Choose the proper decor and decorations

To adjust the flow of energy, you need to properly decorate your bathroom. The decorations in the bathroom should show the essence of the Water element. It’s OK to have pictures of:

the ocean;
sea;
lake;
waterfall;
boat;
beach;
snow;
ice.

It is forbidden to hang images of the sun, its rays, sunset, dawn, desert, and landscapes in the bathroom. All of them belong to the element of Fire, which contradicts the Water element.

The main thing is to avoid dark, yellow, and orange tones.

Feng Shui Bathroom Taboos

According to the Feng Shui rules, you should always avoid:

Broken plumbing – leads to money loss;
Leaking out the water of the drain tank – leads to financial loss;
Open toilet lid – leads to the spread of negative energy from the toilet into the living space;
Dirty floors, garbage – create destructive energy;
Dirt in ventilation grilles;
Bad smell.

It is important to keep the bathroom clean for the wellbeing of all family members.

The Bottom Line

Sometimes the house itself can be clean and cozy, and the decorations and talismans can be arranged in accordance with the the Feng Shui rules. However, people who live in it may still get depressed, face financial difficulties, and constantly quarrel. If this is your case, you should pay attention to where your bathroom is located. This can help you find the cause of the trouble and a way out of the situation.

I hope the above tips will be helpful for you and serve as a tool for creating good Feng Shui in your home!

What Are Your Lucky Colors In 2022 (According to Feng Shui)?

Published

February 4, 2022

Katya Ki

According to Chinese metaphysics, each year vibrates at its own unique frequency and resonates with particular colors. Different houses have different color affinities depending on their facing direction. Likewise, depending on your animal sign, different colors will have different effects on you in different years. Using your lucky colors in 2022 will help you improve your good fortune. To do this, you need to know color compatibilities and their resonance with the elements of the year.

In this article, I will share with you how to determine your lucky colors in 2022 for making this year auspicious and prosperous!

Lucky Colors In 2022

According to Chinese metaphysics, there are five main colors that represent the five elements of Fire, Water, Earth, Metal, and Wood. We consider the year to be balanced when we have all five elements presented in the annual Paht Chee chart. However, according to the 2022 chart, this year will be unbalanced in terms of the five elements. This is because there is an excess of Wood element, while both Metal and Fire are missing from the chart. Let’s see how we can fix this and make the year more balanced.

Red Color

This is the color that represents the Fire element and is associated with the planet Mars. As I mentioned above, the Fire element is missing from the Paht Chee annual chart this year, therefore, we need to bring more of this color into our lives to balance the chart. In 2022, the red color brings you support and resources. Therefore, wearing red is very auspicious this year. Get creative – use red accessories, red nail polish, red lipstick to attract wealth luck this year. It’s also very beneficial to use red decor in your houses, such as red decorative pillows, vases, or carpets.

However, it’s important not to overuse this color. Make sure you are not making Fire energy excessive because it can turn destructive. Do not use red color in the center and Southwest sectors of your house in 2022.

White, Gold & Silver Colors

These are the colors that represent the Metal element. The Metal element is also missing from the Paht Chee chart, therefore, we need to bring more of these colors into our lives. In 2022, the Metal element represents talent, creativity, fresh ideas, and intelligence. Wearing white and metallic colors boosts the energy of the Metal element around you. This year, whenever you’re feeling the lack of inspiration, or when the ideas are not coming, wear white. Use white or metallic accents in your home decor to boost the energy of the Metal element in your house.

Yellow Color

This is the color that represents the Earth element and is associated with stability. Yellow color radiates the energy of patience, grounding, and realism. In 2022, yellow represents friends and alliances. If you don’t have enough Earth energy in 2022, you can expect plenty of covert jealousies, with a high possibility of betrayal and backstabbing.

Wear yellow accessories to boost the Earth element but don’t over-strengthen it! You see, the other side of the meaning of the yellow this year is hidden rivals and competition. By over-boosting the Earth element, you may attract strong competitors. Therefore, if you’re working in competitive environments, be cautious about the use of too much yellow.

Green Color

This is the color that represents the Wood element and is associated with growth, creativity, and intelligence. In 2022, wearing the green color will bring you recognition, power, and progress in one’s career.

However, remember that there is an excess of the Wood element in the Paht Chee chart this year. Therefore, don’t over-strengthen it, otherwise, you may attract disharmony and aggravate interpersonal relationships both at work and at home. Don’t wear too much green. It’s better to use green accessories or small green accents in your look. You can also wear green gemstones for boosting your Wood element. Wearing jade, emerald and other green-colored stones will activate your recognition luck in 2022.

Blue & Black Colors

These are the colors that represent the Water element and are associated with communication, friendship, networking. In 2022, blue and black colors activate wealth potential. Wearing shades of black and blues in 2022 strengthens wealth luck and improve profits.

However, there is too much Water in the Paht Chee chart this year. Therefore, avoid over-using these colors, as doing so may actually result in financial loss. This is especially the case for those born in the year of the Rat, Ox, Tiger, and Boar. If you wear a totally black or blue outfit, always balance it out with some colorful accessories (for example, combine it with a red purse).

Lucky Feng Shui Colors For Your House

Knowing your home’s lucky Feng Shui colors and elements will help you to unlock the energy potential of your house and attract abundance into your life.

Basic Feng Shui Activation

Let’s start with the basic Feng Shui activation for the year of the Water Tiger 2022:

Place a red doormat on your doorstep – for inviting wealth and prosperity into your house;
Hang three Chinese coins and bells on the entrance door – for attracting money luck;
Place some plants (preferably those that are fruiting and flowering) near your main door or in your living room or in the dining room – for activating growth energy and attracting success.

Now you are ready for charging your home with the energy of the lucky Feng Shui colors.

East-facing Houses

If your main door faces East, then strengthen the Fire element with reds, maroons, or orange. For example, you can place a red doormat by your front door to improve overall harmony at home.

West-facing Houses

If your main door faces West, use black or blue colors. You can display a Water fountain by your front door to protect your home from financial losses.

North-facing Houses

If your main door faces North, use more of those colors that represent the Water element (blue, black, turquoise, etc.). By adding these colors to your front door design will improve your career and promotion.

South-facing Houses

If your main door faces South, use the colors of the Fire element (red, orange, maroon, magenta, pink, etc.). For example, you can place a red doormat by your front door to attract prosperity.

Southwest-facing Houses

If your main door faces Southwest, use the colors of the Wood element (green). Put some plants by your front door and use more green colors in this area.

If your house faces Southwest, you can also use colors that represent the Metal element (white, silver, gold, any metallic colors) or display some auspicious figurines made of brass or other metal to ensure that everyone who lives in your house enjoys good health.

Southeast-facing Houses

If your main door faces Southeast, use the colors of the Wood element (green) and place some plants by your front door. This will help you to renew friendships and enhance networking luck.

Northwest-facing Houses

If your house or main door faces Northwest, use the colors of the Earth element (yellow, beige) and display some natural crystals in the Northwest sector. By doing this, you activate your heavenly luck in 2022.

Northeast-facing Houses

If your main door faces Northeast, then use the colors of the Fire element (red, maroon, pink, orange, magenta, etc.) here to enhance your good luck.

The Bottom Line

2022 carries great potential for abundance, wealth, and prosperity. Now that you know your lucky colors in 2022, you can tap into this potential. Use your lucky Feng Shui colors in your house, office, website design, clothes, accessories, business card design, etc. It will help you to always be in tune with the auspicious energies of the year and manifest a lucky year for yourself, your business, and your family!
