The Importance of the Kitchen

The rule for kitchens is the bad, bad, good theory. The first bad is that the kitchen should be located in one of your four negative directions. The reason being is because it'll burn up the negative chi in that sector. Another bad is that the stove should "press" down on a negative sector. What does that mean? That means that the back of the stove should be going to one of your four negative sectors. The good part is that the stove knobs should activate one of your four good sectors. For example, I am a 9 Gua. My four good directions are north, south, east and southeast. My four negative directions are west, southwest, northeast and northwest. My stove should "press" down (or the back of the stove should face) west, southwest, northeast or northwest. My knobs should face north, south, east or southeast. The last good is that the energy which the stove sits on and activates should be good.

Another tip is that kitchens should never be in the center of homes this indicates high blood pressure and heart related problems. Also, stove tops should never be on an island for these same reasons.

The kitchen is a big indicator of health, wealth and relationship issues. This is one of the most important aspects of the home that needs to be remedied and ensured is properly placed.
