Hi. I am new to feng shui, but from all of my basic readings I know that having a stove directly face a kitchen sink is "bad." I recently purchased a house with the stove installed in an island in the center of the kitchen. This faces the sink. How do I fix this problem? Thanks in advance.

Hi Ewa - and all.
I am very, very new to this list.

there is some space (at least two feet) between the two (fire and water).
Have you taken other elements into consideration?
Warm regards, Camilla

Dear Ewa,
Here are some guidelines as to the placement of the stove and water
elements (water elements include the sink & fridge):-
If the Kitchen is located at the South (Fire), East (Wood) and South-East
(Wood) ,W (Metal) and West (Metal)
In the above situations, the `fire' in the kitchen will not `die' out and
even if you have a water position opposite the stove, it is fine. In fact, a
water position opposite the stove at the above locations can help `cool'
down the fire.
If the Kitchen is located at the North (Water), North-East (Earth ) and
South-West (Earth)
In the above situation, where there Water and Earth, the fire can easily be
extinguished, you should NEVER have a water position too close to the stove.
Especially avoid a water position opposite it in the above situation.
Hope the above helps.
Warmest Regards
Cecil Lee
