Commonsense Approach
Mirror Facing The Bed
Reference Forum Msg: http://forum.geomancy.net/phpforum/article.php?bid=2&fid=1&mid=24590&new=
FS Master- I'd like something cleared up that I am unsure of and hope you can help me. I know that is it considered bad to have a mirror facing your bed, but does this mean in all cases? What if the bed is not reflected from a seated position in the bed (or other perspectives)? What is a good way to remedy a reflected bed other than covering it? Thank you. =]
In my opinion, this concern of mirror facing our bed is very interesting as there are two different view points, here:
1. It started with some Feng Shui books, commenting that when we sleep, these books mentioned that "our spirit" will float and if our bed is facing the mirror or a tv screen that has highly reflective glass.. our spirit will get a shock when it sees it's own image! Perhaps, the spirit froze to death?
2. Another side of the argument is that what happens if - indeed when we sleep, our spirit really float and sees itself in a mirror... Perhaps, it is a blessing in disguise as now this spirit, can personally look at his/her appearance to check whether he/she is good enough to wander off! ie. nicely combed hair etc...
3. We are on this earth for such a short period of our life! So, having TV set facing us is to many of us advantages, in that we have our personal space, comfortably seated in our bed viewing wonderful pictures on our TV set!
4. So, why, because someone says that is not good to have a TV (or mirror) face us and just because of this "silly" argument, deprive us of having a TV set in our bedroom much less have to cover it every now and then.
5. Millions people, right now (different cultures) like you and me have a TV set in our bedroom. To be frank, personally I also have a >40 inches tv in my bedroom. How to cover it? Silly me?
6. We can look at it from another argument: Some of us are more sensitive person than others. For example, some of us can eat lots of hot chillies.. while some dare not even touch chillies! Some of us can even sleep with a room full of reflective glass akin to mirrors .. while some of us (silly people) reading too many of these Feng Shui books scare ourself to death by worrying whether mirror, here, there in our bedroom can harm us or not!
7. And in fact, many of new LCD tvs, hardly have any reflections at all!
Thus, if one were to analyse what I have written above, one can better understand the situation better. And if some one else spread this myth, please present the above logical series of arguments to them! One word " IT'S IN THE MIND, Dear! "

Buying a Home?: Bring family members along for viewing
Commonsense dictate that when we are house hunting; always bring our family member(s) along to view the home.

Corners Are Usually Dead Qi Area
1. In all rooms (including bedrooms) if we do not turn on the fan or air-con to circulate air; then it is best not to place a bed-head between the corner of the bedroom.
2. Here, if there is not much air-circulation; this is the dead qi area.
Plot at a T-junction
Reference: http://forum.geomancy.net/phpforum/article.php?bid=2&fid=6&mid=29792&new=
1. Always remember, a plot at a T-junction is at the mercy of "Commonsense" Feng Shui.
2. The test is: "Can a run-amok vehicle be able to slam into the property?" Yes or No? If Yes, then this is most likely as illustrated in the attachment a potential plot (in this case) a home facing a T-junction.
3. Block B is not considered at a T-junction. But Plot X is considered at a T-junction especially if the building or home is right at the T-junction. See attachment.
4. The assumption is that it is not a one-way street where traffic flows away from the T-junction. It also depends on which country one is in: a Right-Hand drive or Left-Hand drive.
Can Bad Fengshui Be Altered? Such as a home at a T-Junction
Reference: http://forum.geomancy.net/phpforum/article.php?bid=2&fid=1&mid=26501&new
My comments are as follows:-
1. Ideally, a house at a T-junction, should not have openings be it a window, direclty looking towards, the gate - to the road. If so, this is considered very bad Feng Shui.
2. Wooden gate should e.g. have overlapping e.g. wooden panels - do note that it can still let "air" in but physically one cannot direclty see it. This year, I had posted a picture of a home that is at this "T-junction" and this home actually belongs to a doctor.
3. Some "T-junctions" or connecting roads to the T-junctions are "busy" to very-busy. While others are less busy.. Of course, least busiest are much better than busy or fast moving "roads".
4. Look at it this way, from a practical point of view; many one off accidents do occur at main roads and where roads suddenly take a turn.
For example:- This link:-

Many years back, Montessori for Children (please see attachment) next to the blue target; throughout the years, the bungalow there had seen many especially "drunk" drivers that plow thru towards the home. And if the openings are in a straight row, imagine if a fast car - could literally plow thru into the inner sanctum of the home...
5. Although this is not a "T-junction"; once a while we do get stories of car(s) plowing towards such a home.
5.1 This is why, today no one wants to stay in this former home : now Montessori for Children. As it is a school; it will not be affected by drunkards smashing into this "home" - as after office or school hours, no one is in this school. As drunkards only venture after 12pm or later....
5.2 Thus in the above example, government has played a part in installing protective railings along Mountbatten road.. In the past, it was not that way. This example is about "reckless" endangerment of life - in a way.. some form of bad Feng Shui. The cure does not lie so much as to the direct sha qi but rather.. how do we avoid a drunkard.. plowing his/her ride direclty into a home.
7. Yes, in a way, some of these "T-junction" homes can have their bad Feng Shui REDUCED especially thru the facade of the building i.e. reposition of main door, fencing made of e.g. red bricks etc....
