[Kitchen] Five Elements—Don't Roast Your Family Head
Let’s Keep It Real
This is about “family hierarchy” in your home.
Hard Knowledge
Northwest = Qian Trigram = Father/Male Head = Metal (Five Elements)
Crime Scene 🔥
If your kitchen (Fire) is in the northwest corner, this is the infamous “Fire Burns Heaven’s Gate”.
Translation
You’re essentially putting the male head of household (Metal) into a roasting oven (Fire).
Consequences
The family’s main provider may experience:
- Headaches
- Irritability
- Money that won’t stay
💡 Golden Tip (Emergency Kit)
Can’t move? Place ceramic pots or rice containers (Earth) in the kitchen. Let Fire generate Earth, and Earth generate Metal—use a mediator.
The generating cycle: Fire → Earth → Metal
The “Earth” element acts as a buffer, reducing Fire’s destructive effect on Metal.
Feng Shui Practice
- Find the northwest corner of your home (use a compass or phone app)
- Check what room is there
- If it’s the kitchen, immediately place ceramic vessels or a rice container filled with rice there
