Dear Hoa Luong,

1. As a follow-up, this morning, I visited some local shops and purchased no less than 8 Ba Gua mirrors.

2. I got 3 from one shop and another 5 more from another shop. I think, the second shop keeper must have thought that I was "MAD" since no one had purchased or tried purchasing that many Ba Guas on a single occasion in their life! (Including mine)

3. Just for info, when I displayed so many Ba Gua mirrors to take photos at... my camera smart media "got error". For quite sometime. And for fear of being too Yang.. I covered them up immediately. Do not want to create so many negative Qi. Imagine 8 X Ba Gua mirrors is a rather " FIERCE " thing to do. 4. Out of curiosity, I "tested" the shop keeper's knowledge or `advise' on what type to buy. Frankly, the two shop keepers, cannot really `recommend' the various type. And the first shop which I bought the concave mirror - could not explain the use of it. I quickly took the photos and kept them and store them away!

I personally feel that those who sell the items should try to be more knowledgeable.

Nevertheless, I have added the various pictures under the conferene "Photo Tours of Interest (with Pictures) conference.

Feel free to login to the forum and view the three Parts i.e. Part I, II and III. Showing the different kinds of Ba Gua mirrors.

Generally, all Ba Gua mirrors fall under one of the above categories.

Please see below:-

You can hang the Model A, B, C or D type of mirror (with either flat or convex type of mirror). Please check out the the Photo Tours conference as mentioned above to see a picture of the various basic traditional/modern models.

As mentioned above, you can hang the Models A to D. As a last result you can hang models E to F (with the Fu dogs for protection) if you cannot really find the Models A to D.

But I would recommend A to D types for you.

For the CONCAVE type, I would not recommend. For me, if my clients really need to hang the CONCAVE type, I would need to be personally around to check and confirm if this type / the size to use. Else, don't use this type as it absorbs rather than deflect the mirrors.

Warmest Regards,
Cecil
