Dear Carina,
1. Currently, there is no `rule' to say that a mirror can only be placed in the dinning, living and toilets. But rather, we should understand the reasoning behind what was mentioned.
2. The reason for placing in a toilet is because most master bedrooms have an attached bathroom.
Because of this, it is `advisable' to place the mirror above the wash basin rather than in the bedroom area. This is because some of us are more `sensitive' to mirrors facing the bed.
It is still acceptable to place the mirror on the dressing table if it does not face the bed.
3. Some of us are not sensitive to mirrors even if they face the bed. So, here it does not apply to everyone.
4. For a mirror placed in the dinning room, the Chinese dialect group i.e. Cantonese some of them believe that a mirror facing the dinning room will bounce back more `food' or plentiful food in the dinning room.
5. For mirrors in the living room, majority do it more for interior decorations e.g. make the living room look `bigger' and brighter.
6. The main consideration under Feng Shui is that should the sector or wall has an inaupicious Flying Star e.g. the sickness star, one concept that, it will bounce back twice the `bad luck'.
It is under Para 6 that Feng Shui practitioners are concerned about.
7. Where best, the mirror should face an opposite wall rather than a door or entrance. I am not sure one would feel `comfortable' seeing one's profile each time one leaves the kitchen. This has nothing to do with Feng Shui (just my personal comments).
Consideration under Feng Shui: It is best not to reflect sharp objects e.g. knives fork if it is visible view of the `opposite' mirror. I believe this is not the case as mentioned in your message.
Warmest Regards,
Cecil
