A mirror, in vastu, is considered as one of the best vastu defect remedy tool.
This tool – the mirror – has the ability to attract unimagined fortunes, wealth and happiness, if used as per rules and regulations of vastu shastra.
However, if mirrors, in a home violate the rules and guidelines of vastu, then they become a magnet to misfortunes, poverty and unhappiness.
Read on to know the reason why mirrors are considered so powerful in vastu shastra.
Mirrors – Why vastu considers them powerful?
The reason why mirrors are considered powerful tool in vastu shastra is very simple.
In vastu shastra mirrors are believed to attract and repel positive energy but they suck up all the negative energies.
Thus a mirror in a home or any business establishment has the capability of:
1. Doubling up the prosperity
2. Sending all the positive energies away
3. Sucking up all the negative energies
depending upon how and where it’s used. I will give you examples for above cases:
Case 1: Doubling Up Wealth
If a mirror is placed in front of a cash locker then it represents doubling up of cash.
This attracts positive energy and ensures that the financial condition becomes better and better.
Case 2: Keeping Positive Energies Away
If a mirror is placed in front of the main door or entrance of a home then it will reflect away all the positive energies that will otherwise enter your home.
You must know that in vastu shastra it is believed that maximum amount of energy enters a home or office from the main entrance door; hence you must take necessary action and make the main door or entrance a vastu compliant one.
Case 3: Sucking Up All Negative Energies
If a mirror is placed in front of something negative then as per beliefs and principles of vastu shastra, the mirror will suck all the negative energy from that “thing”.
Therefore while placing mirrors in your home or office you must make sure that all mirrors are located in compliance with vastu rules and guidelines so that your home or office attracts and doubles up only positive and progressive energy.
