>I am a student, so I run between my parents home and my student house every
week. I spend weekends at my parents and weekdays at university. Which
bedroom's feng shui would affect me the most? Could you please solve some
of my problems. My major areas I wish to focus on are study and
relationships.


Frankly, the application of Feng Shui in the past was focused more on macro
level e.g. the situation of an entire city etc...
Only nowadays, as Feng Shui became `more lucrative' or we would like to be
`comforted' by the thoughts that where we spent our time or at a specific
location, could help us in our studies.

For the young, especially those who are studying, my feeling is that it
really does not matter i.e. to follow advise as where are my good and bad
locations but rather, we should continue to find the best and most
comfortable way to study and create that environment.

In Feng Shui, the only consideration if you really want to follow Feng Shui
principles is where possible sit facing one of your good locations. But if
you enjoy studying on a bed but not on the table, that is equally fine.

What I really mean is that to `go with the flow' or your natural `instincts'
or intuition. This will be a better Feng Shui method.

>1 My bed at university shares a wall with the bathroom. My bedroom door
faces the bathroom door, the toilet bowl is not visible from my bedroom, but
there is a large mirror facing my bedroom. I have placed a full length
mirror opposite my door to reflect any negative energy away from my bedroom.
Is this correct? Also the toilet bowl shares a wall with my bed. Is this
bad practice?


For one, where possible two mirrors must not face each other. Avoid having
too many mirrors in a small room especially if you can see your reflection
e.g. from your bed. However, if you feel comfortable with it, then it is
perfectly OK.

As you stay in a dorm, you cannot really help if the toilet bowl shares a
wall with your bed. It would be good to leave a small gap here.

>2. There is also an open book shelf directly facing the bed. I am unable
to move both the bed and book shelf. Is there anything I can do to stop
these daggers directing onto my bed?


Here, you can easily use a `cloth' book cover. For example, a floral design
or some nice curtain material. This can easily be washed when it gets dirty.

Depending on your `lifestyle' more inclined towards being extrovert or
introvert. If you more outgoing, than, depending on your taste, you can
paste a poster of whatever you like. If you are introvert, you can place a
picture frame of your loved ones etc....

You can play around with the Yin and yang concept. Yin is also known as
state of rest. While Yang, more lively e.g. have a portable radio, walkman
etc...

Good Luck in your studies.

Warmest Regards,
Cecil Lee
