Mirror Facing Dinning Table

[myfs_150494]

rHi Master Cecil
I saw that you mentioned certain group of people believe that by placing a full length mirror to reflect food on the dinner table means "double wealth"
1) Can you advise if the mirrorplace on the wall reflecting the dinner table and also reflect cupboard/computer/plant at the same time (these things are opp of the dinning table), is it ok esp the computer? Must we cover up the computer?
2)If sometimethe dinner table also place books, newspaper or laptop when food is not place on it (non-meal time) and the mirror reflect on these, does it mean that is it better not to place the mirror then?
3) Is there particular shape for the mirror? Oval or rectangular type is better?
Thank you very much

1. There is no major issue with rectangular or oval type of mirror. Circle mirrors are generally still ok.

2. Commonsense Feng Shui:

2.1. It is always not good to use two exact sized mirrors. As it symbolises a split.

2.2. Often if one stays at high floors; sometimes one single piece of mirror may not fit the lift;

2.3. Thus the contractor's workers would not be too free to walk up the stairs. Thus if really cannot have one piece than three pieces of mirrors.

2.4 Again under commonsense Feng Shui; many dining tables does not have a courtesy board below the table. Thus, if one has a full lenght mirror; and if some lady or ladies were to seat "improperly" say with their legs wide open... little boys or even some men would find it tempting to look "inside"...

3. Some say.. the illustrations in the attachment tells a million words... TRUE or FALSE?

These are futher considerations:

1. By the way the "certain group of people" you mentioned are:-

1.1. Mainly, the Cantonese dialect group. The idea here is, yes, the mirror would reflect bountiful food.

1.2. The other group I am afraid especially especially for those new condominiums are the Interior Designers (IDs)... as often, there are not much work needed; thus some ID's would often recommend the placement of large mirror(s) to make the living area looks larger.. In addition, they often say that it would be good to place a partition. It is all about marketing and in my opinion; one way of getting more work from the apartment/unit.

1.3. From a Flying Star Feng Shui perspective; geomancers would give reason that a mirror at a strategic location can even be positive e.g. reflect good "star numbers". While placing mirrors at the wrong sectors are detrimental.

1.4. Mirrors are often said to help "carry" qi further e.g. some consider it ok to have it at the staircase area but some give negative comments on it.

2. Frankly, don't be ridicious. Why?

2.1. Are you staying in a lived in house or a sterile environment?

2.2. Therefore, what is so insanely wrong with computers, plants, books... etc...

2.3. A crime to have them that one need to cover them up?

3. Therefore, don't be ridicious and start to cover the computer, books etc.. etc.. might as well take down or cover the mirror right?

4. There are many other commonsense considerations... no point for me to go on and on this subject matter. But seriously, many of us have lots of gagets and items in a home.

5. If you feel that some of these gadets are in the wrong place; I would gladly take them off your hands e.g. Ipad 2, Iphone 4 or (soon 5) or why don't you donate them to the poor? If it makes you feel better?

6. The morale of the story: "Don't end up like the dog's, please, lah!"
