Dear Master Cecil:

Thank you for your concern about my problem with my next door neighbor's mirror.

The mirror is "at most" 7.5 inches in width and 3 inches in length with flat surface.

My next door neighbor leans this mirror against their second floor window, which faces the right hand side of my house. I am able to see this mirror when I walk out of my house. Their second floor window is at least 5 metres (more than 17 feet) away from the side of my house.

To answer your questions. No, there is no altar in my house and there is no poison arrow; i.e. an arrow-head signage or main door with arrow-head grille gate, coming out of my house or aiming towards my neighbor.

My next door neighbor is a less educated household in our housing community known for violating all kinds of rules and regulations. I am on "no-speaking" term with them.

Is this mirror a threat to the Feng Shui of my house?

Would a convex mirror be useful to disperse the effect of this flat surface mirror? Of course, if I put a convex mirror anywhere outside of my house, my mirror would be at least 5 metres away from their house (the same as their mirror is at least 5 metres away from my house).

Does the size of a flat surface or a convex mirror matter in the context of Feng Shui?

Warmest Regards,
Anon
