Stove-Toilet Cross Floor灶马同宫·跨层 · CL-02
TL;DR — Core Definition
Stove-Toilet Cross Floor (灶马同宫·跨层) is a traditional interior feng shui formation in which a stove and a toilet fall within the same directional sector of a home but on different levels, one above the other.
| Formation | Stove-Toilet Cross Floor |
|---|---|
| Visual cue | Stove and toilet in the same sector across floors |
| Nature | Cautionary (煞) |
| Five-element remedy direction | Buffer the stacked fire/water with wood-element |
Why it matters in traditional feng shui
As with the same-floor case, fire and water sharing one directional sector across stacked floors is traditionally read as opposing elements concentrated in one palace.
How to recognise it
Compare the eight directional sectors across floors and check whether a stove on one level and a toilet on another fall in the same sector.
Traditional remedy direction
Traditional balancing introduces a wood-element buffer to mediate the stacked fire and water associations.
