Bathroom Mirror Vastu: When building or renovating a house, people pay close attention to the kitchen, bedroom, and prayer room, but often overlook the bathroom. However, according to Vastu Shastra, the bathroom is the part of the house where negative energy is most likely to accumulate. This is why even small things related to the bathroom can affect the overall atmosphere of the house, mental peace, and financial situation. Nowadays, almost every bathroom has a mirror.

Looking in the mirror while getting ready in the morning, washing our face, or brushing our teeth has become a habit, but have you ever wondered whether placing a mirror in the bathroom is right or wrong according to Vastu? Many people are confused about this question. Some believe that placing a mirror in the bathroom increases negative energy, while others consider it perfectly safe.

In reality, Vastu Shastra doesn't prohibit placing a mirror, but it emphasizes the importance of following certain rules. If the direction, size, cleanliness, and position of the mirror are correct, it can bring benefits instead of harm. In this article, we will learn in simple terms whether or not a mirror should be placed in the bathroom, and if so, in which direction, what size, and what things to avoid. Let's find out from astrologer Ravi Parashar.

Is it right to place a mirror in the bathroom according to Vastu?
According to Vastu Shastra, a mirror can be placed in the bathroom, but not without careful consideration. The mirror in the bathroom doubles the energy present there. If the bathroom is clean and the mirror is placed in the right direction, a positive effect is seen, but a mirror placed in the wrong place or in poor condition can cause problems.

In which direction should the bathroom mirror be placed?
If you want to install a mirror in the bathroom, the east or north direction is considered the best. A mirror placed in these directions balances the energy of the house and calms the mind. Especially in the morning, when you look at yourself in the mirror, it helps you start the day in a better mood. 

Why is a round mirror considered good?
According to Vastu Shastra, a round mirror is a good option for the bathroom. The round shape is free from sharp corners, which reduces negative vibes. Such a mirror also looks beautiful and creates a positive feeling. A small or medium-sized round mirror is ideal for the bathroom.

Avoid placing a mirror opposite the door.
When placing a mirror in the bathroom, make sure it is not directly opposite the door. It is believed that when a person enters the bathroom, both positive and negative energies enter with them. If the mirror is opposite the door, this energy can be reflected into the house, which is considered inauspicious.

A rectangular mirror is also a good option.
If you don't prefer a round mirror, you can also use a rectangular mirror. Just make sure that its frame is strong and the edges are not broken or chipped. The rectangular mirror should be clean and installed at the correct height so that the entire face is clearly visible when using it.

Rules for bathrooms located in the southwest direction
If your house's bathroom is located in the southwest direction, according to Vastu, it is better to install a square mirror on the east wall. Doing so can reduce Vastu defects associated with the bathroom and maintain the balance of the house.

Why is a broken or dirty mirror considered inauspicious?
In Vastu Shastra, a broken, cracked, or dirty mirror is considered very inauspicious. Such a mirror can increase tension, financial problems, and bitterness in relationships within the home. Therefore, if the bathroom mirror is not clean or has cracks, it should be replaced immediately.

Why is it wrong for the toilet seat to be visible in the mirror?
Also, make sure that the reflection of the toilet seat is not visible in the bathroom mirror. According to Vastu, this has a negative effect and can disturb the peace of the house. If necessary, slightly change the position of the mirror.
