Never Place Here:

To increase the positivity & energy inside your home, there are some particular places where placement of shoe racks should always be avoided. Take a look:

• A shoe rack should never be placed on the entrance of the house as it is believed that the main door is where goddess "Lakshmi" resides. A rack on the entrance creates blockage and generates stress in the mind and blocks the money.
• Never place the shoe racks in the bedroom.
• Never keep a clutter of shoes in front of the main door.
• Never place the shoe racks in the North, South-East, or East direction. The east section is enhanced to generate prosperity and positivity in a house. So try keeping this section as clean as possible and avoid keeping things like a broom, cleaning clothes, shoe racks, etc.
• Never place a shoe rack near the place of worship. Maintain a suitable gap between the temple of the house and the shoe stand.
