When you hang the Bagwa mirror do you face the mirror towards the door or towards the room? How do you know if its not deflecting positive energy?

Anyway, Ive been going a bit crazy with feng shui-ing my flat lately! I've decided to paint my door a rich, bright, purple as an alternative to red, and put up coins behind it for luck. I also have put up a wind chime by my door and am going to get some silk flowers to put near the top of my stairs to move the chi around a bit as my stairs are right in front of my door so any positve chi I might have goes zip straight out the door!

I have also bought two shoe cupboards and shoved all my shoes in it to keep my hallway clear. I've read that shoes bring the outside in and can attract negative chi. And I have a LOT of shoes!!!

I have also printed out the Double Happiness symbol from Google, framed it and put it on the south side of my bedroom wall in the hope of attracting love!! (Dunno if it'll work though!)

A while ago my sister bought two sweet little goldfish (called Pearl and Jam, lol!) for luck - one gold, one black - except the black one turned gold, so not sure if thats a good thing. Anyway, they are so cute I luv em!

Yeah, I so love Pearl Jam. Does anyone know when they're going to release a new albumn - of originals? I thought the best of was pointless as they are all my best, but then the albumn has really rare songs like Breathe on it, which can't be a best of!

Anyhow, they're too cool...

Do use a small round or octagonal mirror or a shiny, flat metal doorknocker to deflect "poison" arrows, such as tree trunks, lamp-posts, fire hydrants, corners of neighboring buildings, church steeples, or other objects projecting Sha energy toward your home or obstructing your view.

DON'T use an all-glass front door; choose a solid door instead. A small, beveled window onthe door is acceptable. Too much glass does not offer protection for the home and allows prosperity to leak out.

Mirrors: DO use a Bagua mirror to deflect Sha energy that originates from straight lines or unpleasant neighbors. The red wooden frame is shaped like an octagon with a round mirror at its center. It is bordered in green with gold symbols fromthe I Ching, a sacred Chinese text. Be careful how and where you use it!

Do use reflective aids primarily for protection and only as a last resort.

DON'T use a mirror to harm someone.

Most importantly, Do hang octagonal bagua mirrors on the outside of your home, but never on the inside.

Lastly, Do use a flat octagonal or flat mirror to deflect Sha energy from common sources, such as garbage cans, dumpsters, or barking dogs.

hope this helps?
any other questions I'd be happy to help!
Peace and Love

for instance, a two-dollar bill hangs over the door for good luck; A string of bells is attached to the door itself to announce whoever may be entering or exiting, A black, cement bat-man face is guarding the front door on the outside, sitting on the mail-box; I never have mirrors facing beds, and I have various masks on the walls--like one that faces the door and scares bad spirits away. Or the one in my bedroom that helps with dreams.
