This makes it very difficult not only to focus on an important matter, but also to relax. Especially in this regard, the presence of a mirror in the bedroom for women interferes. They begin to delve into themselves, looking for flaws in the image, and immerse themselves in thinking about ways to eliminate them. Moreover, the desire to do this immediately postpones all other cases for an indefinite time.

Accordingly, the bed should not stand between the mirrored walls. There should be no mirrors at the head of the bed, however, as well as at the feet. And of course, they will not recommend you place a mirror in the bedroom on the ceiling. An interesting situation, like a necessary piece of furniture, and at the same time problematic. Let's try to figure out where and how to properly position the mirrors in such an intimate room.

Magic Teachings on Mirrors

“Magicians and psychics, whose popularity is unconditional today, advise their clients to immediately get rid of mirrors that reflect unpleasant events and, of course, in no case should they hang such mirrors in the bedroom, otherwise you will have to forget about a good sleep.”

 

In this ancient teaching, mirrors play a special role. According to his concept, a mirror is an object that redistributes energy flows, and a Bagua mirror is generally able to protect against any negativity emanating from various objects. That is why practical Feng Shui adheres to strict prescriptions regarding the location and shape of these magical items:

1. the mirror hanging in the bedroom should not have sharp corners;
2. a person should be reflected in it in full growth;
3. the dimensions of a small mirror should reflect the head of the viewer, without cutting off its contours, otherwise the person will suffer from headaches;
4. the marital bed should not fall into the field of mirror reflection, this provokes betrayal and quarrels in the family;
5. if the mirror simultaneously reflects the bed and the door leading from the bedroom, then the problems will double.

Chinese teaching insists that sleep is a time of liberation from negative emotions, and if the sleeping person is reflected in the mirror, the process becomes impossible, because the magic glass will return all outgoing flows to the owner.

The shamans of the North are generally categorically against the placement of any mirror in the bedroom, because they are sure that someone lives behind the looking glass, whose pair of eyes always follows what is happening, voluntarily or involuntarily falling into his field of vision. A person reflected in the mirror will not sleep well, he may be tormented by nightmares. Naturally, he will become irritable and will have problems at work and quarrels in the family.

The theory that mirrors are able to "remember" events that happened in their presence has not been refuted either. This is actively confirmed by the owners of mirrors, when looking into them, not only poor health occurs, but also panic fear. Usually these are old things that have seen more than one generation of people and are inherited. Silent witnesses remember many terrible incidents and managed to accumulate centuries-old negativity, which today they seek to give to everyone who looks into them.

Kindle interest in the mystical properties of mirrors and modern media, now and then tossing up stories about killer mirrors. And after hearing some of them, some people seriously think about whether it is worth hanging a mirror in the bedroom at all? After the official appeal of antiquaries was published in the late nineties, warning lovers of rarities about the dangers of owning a mirror with an inscription on the holding frame: "Louis Arpo 1743", since its previous owners died under very mysterious circumstances - a biased attitude appeared to almost all mirrors having at least some history of existence. Even in retro interiors, artificially aged mirrors have long been used. After such a move, an old and rather valuable thing seemed to have sunk into oblivion. By the way, nothing is known about the whereabouts of the killer mirror even today.

Magicians and psychics, whose popularity is unconditional today, advise their clients to immediately get rid of mirrors that reflect unpleasant events and, of course, in no case outweigh such mirrors in the bedroom, otherwise you will have to forget about a good sleep.

After getting acquainted with the teachings, beliefs and signs of different nations, it becomes clear that there is no place for mirrors in the bedroom.

Mirror in the bedroom and modern psychology

Psychologists say that it is human nature to be afraid of the dark. This is a fear of the unknown, moreover, night lighting can distort the contours of even well-known objects. Now imagine how much panic can be caused by the headlights gliding over a mirrored surface or the swaying branches of a tree reflected in it. The room will instantly fill with an atmosphere of horror.

With a sudden awakening, a person also does not immediately realize what he sees and cannot correctly evaluate it, therefore, his own reflection in a dark mirror hanging in the bedroom opposite the bed can be perceived as the presence of an outsider in the room.. In this case, severe stress will not be the worst outcome of the situation.

The subconscious of a person is arranged in such a way that not only his own life experience lives in him.There is a place in it for the perception of the world that has traditionally developed in a particular culture, and strange stories about the mystical world behind the looking-glass have settled in the memory since childhood. Sometimes the impressions from the stories are so strong that a person develops a real spectrophobia, which is regarded as a mental deviation and requires specific treatment. Moreover, a strong fear of a specific mirror can give rise to a panic horror of reflective surfaces in principle, and this is practically a disaster, because surfaces of this type surround us not only in an apartment, but almost everywhere.

And yet mirrors

Mystics, psychologists, and folk wisdom unanimously say that there is no place for a mirror in the bedroom, but if you are skeptical of superstitions, then you can safely include these incredibly spectacular design items in the interior. They can carry a purely decorative load. A blue bedroom will look especially good in combination with a lot of mirror surfaces. When looking at such a room, an association with the Snow Queen's palace is involuntarily born, the apartments are so luxurious and cold. Decorative mirrors have such proportions and are placed in such a way that it will be almost impossible to look at them.. By the same rules, designers can decorate the head of the bed by placing a few tiny mirrors in it. If you have strong nerves and a great craving for beauty, then a mirror monolith in a spectacular design can become the head of the bed. You can go even further and make the entire surface of the wall to which the head of the bed adjoins a mirror. So the mirror in the bedroom will be perceived most comfortably.
