.::. Height of shoe cabinet & Fengshui .::.

A neighbour came to visit my place and pointed out that it was very bad fengshui to have a full-height shoe-cabinet. To be specific, it's bad fenshui to place shoes above your head. I honestly had no clue, which got me to do some searches in regards to this. I'm not particularly very superstitious, but I suppose when it comes to Fengshui, it's better to avoid outright negative things for the home!

Did a quick search and realized that shoes represent bad energy!

In summary:
- Shoe cabinets should not be black or red.
- Shoes should preferably only be placed up to 1/3 of the house's height, and up to 2/3 of the house's height.
- Shoe cabinets should be closed, so that bad energy can be kept inside.
- Shoes should face head-in, otherwise bad energy will be directed at you whenever you open the cabinet door.
- Shoe cabinets should be on the left of your door and near the entrance as the right side is considered auspicious.
- Avoid placing the shoe cabinet outside the house as it blocks good energy from coming in.
- It's best to have 5 tiers for the shoe cabinet as it represents the five elements.
- Wooden rectangle shoe cabinets are suitable for everyone.
- Do not place a mirror facing a door, including shoe cabinets with reflective surfaces.
