Dear Cecil,
There is a dead or dying tree on the border between my house property and the house next door. I have heard that dying trees are poison arrows but other books make no reference to this. Any advice would be helpful. Thanks. :)

Dear Kieron,
Under Feng Shui, the most `vulnerable' area for poison arrows are:
1. the main entrance door.
2. the view from windows inside the house.
The concept of `poison arrows' is that if you cannot see the poison arrow,
there is no longer a threat.
For a dying tree between your home and your neighbours, it is no `threat'
unless:
1. it can be viewed from a window of a house and when it fulfil para 2
below.
2. when the tree disintegrates into a `tree stump'. When you only have a
`broken' tree stump, this now becomes a `sha' provided when you peer through
the window, it is tangent or perpedicular to it.
In the long run, it is best to totally uproot the tree incase of decay and
especially if it is large to fall and hurt someone. In my country, we do
have termites and it would be `wise' to pull down the tree or if it can be
rescued, then that's fine. Maybe you could make some agreement with your
neighbour to share the costs.
In conclusion, currently there is no threat unless it satisfies condition
under Para 1. and 2. above.
Warmest Regards,
Cecil
