Bathroom Feng Shui Taboo 1: Water and Fire are not compatible
Many Feng Shui schools believe that the bathroom should not be located in the south of the apartment. , in fact, this is also related to the direction of the Eight Diagrams. The south is Li Gua, the five elements belong to fire, and the five elements of the bathroom belong to water. If the bathroom belonging to water is placed in the south, which belongs to fire, the bathroom restrains the fire and earth, just like the human horoscope. It conflicts with Tai Sui, so it is also unlucky.
Bathroom Feng Shui Taboo 2: Toilet with boils and sores
According to the principle of traditional Chinese "family physiognomy", the direction of the toilet cannot be consistent with the direction of the apartment, such as the door of the apartment. The direction of the toilet is south, so when a person sits on the toilet, if the face is also facing the south, it is a taboo that the toilet and the house are in the same direction. It is said that it is easy to cause boils and sores in the family. Of course, I was not careful during the actual survey. Investigate the incidence of boils and sores among residents, but avoid them if possible.
Bathroom Feng Shui Taboo 3: Go straight to the bathroom
If there is a long corridor in your house, you should pay attention to the relationship between the corridor and the bathroom. The bathroom should only be located on the edge of the corridor, not at the end of the corridor. This is a kind of indoor "road rush". It is a serious sign that the bathroom is directly blocked by the corridor, which is extremely harmful to the health of the family.
Bathroom Feng Shui Taboo 4: Closed Bathroom
Some residential bathrooms are completely closed, with no windows and only exhaust fans, and the exhaust fans are not often turned on. . According to the view of "Physiognomy", there must be a window in the bathroom, preferably with sufficient sunlight and good air circulation. The reason is very simple, so that the stale air in the bathroom can be discharged more easily and the air can be kept fresh. If it is completely closed and lacks ventilation devices, it will definitely be detrimental to the health of your family. Using some air fresheners will only change the smell of the air without improving the quality of the air.
Bathroom Feng Shui Taboo 5: The bathroom with bad luck
Many Feng Shui classics mention that the bathroom should not be located in the southwest or northeast. It's very dangerous, but there's no reason why, which makes most people baffled.
In fact, this is determined by the hexagrams of the eight trigrams. The northeast is the hexagram Gen and the southwest is the hexagram Kun. Their natures are all earth, and the hexagrams in the bathroom are water, so the hexagrams in the bathroom will be water. If the bathroom is located in the Gen and Kun directions of earth, the unfavorable phenomenon of earth overcoming water will occur, so it is considered a great misfortune. Regarding the location of the bathroom, the rules are quite complicated. Please refer to the "Rules for House Selection of the Eight Houses" column.

Bathroom Feng Shui Taboo 6: Villa Bathroom
When decorating some villa buildings or complex residences, residents often only consider the matching of rooms on the floor plane. The relationship between the upper and lower floors is ignored. In "family physiognomy", the relationship between the upper and lower floors is also very important. For example, if the bathroom is above the bedroom, it is an extremely bad house appearance. The turbidity in the bathroom After descending into the bedroom, how can the occupant's health improve?
Bathroom Feng Shui Taboo No. 7: Built-in Bathtub
When renovating the bathroom, some friends like to build a basin in the bathroom, which is one or two steps above the ground. Then the bathtub is embedded in the basin. To be honest, this layout is very beautiful and I like it very much. But there is still a small suggestion for you. It is best not to use this pattern in the bathroom set in the bedroom.
Because according to the principle of traditional Chinese "Physiognomy", the floor of the bathroom cannot be higher than the floor of the bedroom, especially the position of the bathtub cannot give a sense of superiority. The Five Elements Theory believes that water flows downward. If you belong to the Moist element and live in a bedroom "moisturized" by water for a long time, you are prone to endocrine system diseases. If you really like a built-in bathtub like this, you can place it in another bathroom farther away from the bedroom.
