myfs_74938 Posted January 8, 2002 Share Posted January 8, 2002 Hi Cecil,I was able to finally acertain a bagua mirror (Octagon shape, not round)for the front window of my rental. It is Yellow in color, not red and comes with a Convex Mirror in the center. The person who sold it to my mom in the local Chinatown told her to hang it any day but only on a "Sunny" day, not cloudy or rainy. My questions are:1) What is the difference between Yellow and red color? I am used to seeing it Red. Is one stronger/weaker than the other? (Since the house is painted yellow, this may become less noticeable and maybe less strong?)2) What's the significance of hanging it on a sunny day? 3) Is there an auspicious day to hang bagua mirrors? The house was built at the end of 1998/beginning of 1999 time frame.As always, thanks for the advice. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Staff Cecil Lee Posted January 8, 2002 Staff Share Posted January 8, 2002 Dear Ben,Yes, if it is a Ba Gua mirrior, it is indeed octagon shape and not round.But, the one that is normally used for your rental home, should be red/green in colour - (usually with a flat mirror).Alternatively, try to get one with the ba gua mirror and the picture with a door god below it.For the time being, you can use a circular mirror.The best time to hang the mirror is:-1st choice - the 1st day of any lunar month. (Preferably on any months other than the 7th lunar month).The good dates to hang the Ba Gua mirror is:-January 27, 2002 - 12th Lunar Month The 1st of each Lunar Month is also considered a good date to hang it.Alternatively, a more personalised date is using the Auspicious Date at www.geomancy-online.comCare of the items hung:-========================Due to the weather/ UV light and exposure to outdoor, these items should be:-1. Checked every one or two years. If faded or in poor quality, be replaced.2. To remove these items, best to wrap it in an old newspaper and discard it and tie it with a red string. Throw it away in the bin. (The red string is optional, thou).Warmest Regards,Cecil Lee Quote On 1/8/2002 7:50:00 PM, Anonymous wrote:Hi Cecil,I was able to finally acertaina bagua mirror (Octagon shape,not round)for the front windowof my rental.
