It's a mirror, which needs a very special place if we want to attract different positive vibrations into the home. Mirrors have the energy of water, which is the fifth element of positive vibrations and represents potential.
Entrance door
The door is the entry point of our home, and if you place a mirror opposite it all energy redirects. Mirrors have the property of reflecting energy and returning the reflection. Therefore, everything that comes through the door goes back to the exit. If you want to have a mirror in the hallway, it is better to place it on a wall that is perpendicular to the door, as it does not reflect energy.
Dining room
The dining room is a place where the whole family gathers, it is also intended for socializing with friends. Therefore, it is important that it is pleasant, warm, airy and spacious. Because of the good energies, the mirror is recommended to be placed in the dining room, as it reflects positive vibes, which take place in such a space.
The kitchen
As for the kitchen, feng shui experts avoid placing mirrors. It is especially not recommended to place the mirror opposite the kitchen oven and cooker, as this position brings bad energy. All the metal in the appliances is cold and thus the power of fire, an element according to feng shui that carries warmth and sociability, is lost.
Living room

If you want a more relaxing space, then these reflective surfaces should be fewer.
A couch
Experts warn that the mirror not suitable above the sofa. Namely, all the pieces that stand above the heads carry heavy energy. Feng Shui is connected with feelings safety, therefore, it is really not appropriate to subconsciously think that it will all fall on your head.
Bedroom
Because mirrors accelerate energy, they are certainly not recommended for a room intended for rest. If you have a mirror in your bedroom, make sure that it is not the only one facing you bed or even on the ceiling. This way, it reflects our image, which leads to bad sleep, sleepless nights, or even nightmares.
Bathroom
The bathroom is associated with the water element and so is the mirror element of water, so this space is the most suitable for placing mirrors. Also, the bathroom is always a closed space where energy does not drain away. However, be careful not to position the mirror so that it looks into your toilet bowl, as it is not energetically appropriate to look into the mirror while cleaning.
