Good morning beautiful people!
In the last post I talked about the direction of each Chinese animal sign and the importance of keeping your animal sign direction free from any affliction.
An affliction in Feng Shui would include having a bathroom, toilet, store room, garage or clutter in that direction.
The reason why these rooms are considered afflicted is because the energy of these rooms is considered negative and they create a negative effect wherever they are placed.
I am sure your next question will be, “Where do we put a bathroom or a toilet?”
And the answer to this question is that you should try and keep these rooms small. When they are small they do not cover as much area and they do not impact the luck as much.
Ok, moving on…
So, what if you are already living in a house and you have just learnt about Feng Shui and found out that your animal sign direction has a toilet or a bathroom there?
Well, there is no need to panic.

Feng Shui offers a wide variety of options to help fix this problem (and any other problem that you might be facing).
Let’s see what you can do to improve the situation.
I will talk about each animal sign and it’s respective direction, and give its remedy with it.
Rat:
- The compass direction of Rat is North.
- If North direction of your home is afflicted in any form then placing a plant inside the room will help remedy it.
- You can try and avoid using this toilet or bathroom but if you do not have a choice then placing the plant will help improve the situation.
- Make sure you enhance the North part of the other rooms in the house.
- You can place metal and water elements in the north corner of other rooms.

- A good example of metal element is a 6 rod all metal wind chime.
