Take the last two digits of your birth year and add the age you will be this year.
111, right?
Right. Now if you could only open those golden lips for something more helpful than that and tell me just how bad is having a mirror facing your bed! The mirror is not in the bedroom, but there's no door to the bathroom. I can't really see myself in it while in bed.
I've been wondering about the other mirror, too. That one doesn't reflect the bed, but faces the door, and now that I'm reading this...
When you place any mirror in your home, pay attention to what is being reflected in it. In feng shui terms, the mirror is doubling that energy by creating a virtual duplicate within the virtual space of the reflection.
Somewhere else I read that having doors on both sides of your bedroom is very bad, but fortunately it doesn't happen often. Am I actually "creating" this set-up by the mirror reflecting the door...? This mirror is stand-alone and I can technically move it, but I just don't have another good place for it and I need a darn full-length mirror!

I believe I mentioned previously the differences between our viewpoints and expectations of feng shui, but it just happens that this is a good thing in both systems - nothing to be concerned about.
It's generally only a mirror at the foot of the bed, such that you see yourself when you first rise. Also you're not supposed to site your bed with your feet facing the door - that's how they arrange dead bodies.
But see, the psychological impact of the mirror is great; the feet, not-so-great - just urban folklore. So one might have precedence over the other in certain situations, i.e. - "I can't keep my feet from facing the door, but it avoids the mirror" - sometimes you have to compromise.

Bull dinky. If the author had any conception of energy, they would know that it doesn't reflect off of mirrors and double its energy. That's creation of energy - something that cannot be done for free.
The term "Fast" needs to become anathema in your vocabulary.

Cool! 'Cause that one ain't goin' nowhere... Well, in the old days nobody even had a toilet inside, much less en suite bathroom, for Pete's sake!

I can only see myself if I really make an effort to stand up in bed... In other words, I never do it. When I get up, I'm doing this to the side and don't look at it.

Yeah, that I know. It rarely happens.

I know... There's only so much you can do... My bedroom is also over the garage, which apparently is not so great, either, but so are many!
Thanks. How about that other mirror reflecting the door? Oh, OK, you replied to that one while I was typing.
So, I'm almost OK mirror-wise...? After all, the swivel mirror reflects Sierra InfractShui - it can't be that bad, can it?!
No, I think you're OK. To be sure I'd need exact compass directions and linear measurements of your house, the hour, longitude and latitude of your birthplace, etc...
