My apartment has it main door facing directly via a long hallway the door to the bathroom. I just bought a pakua mirror so that I can put it on the wall next to the main door facing it. Is this the correct way? Many thanks.

Dear Jose,
In my opinion, some FS practitioners may immediately comment... " nonsense " or " rubbish " on the placment of Ba Gua mirrors.
Usually, these are western FS practitioners.
In the east, such as Hong Kong, Taiwan and the Far East i.e. Singapore, Malaysia, many FS practitioners do ask their clients to use Ba Gua mirrors.
In many of the past messages, the usage is for :
1. To ward off evil.
Here, many of the FS practitioners may have a religion e.g. Toaism or Buddhist and these group of FS practitioners are the most likely ones who not only ask their customers to place Ba Gua mirrors but also `charms' with them to ward off evil.
In fact, there are many who simply prefer their clients to place a simple around 6-8 inch mirror with a yellow charm. Rather than use the Ba Gua " First Heaven Sequence" Trigram.
2. To deflect `Sha qi'. Such as e.g. a neighbour placing a sample `altar' e.g. Thai altar which directly faces their main entrance door.
3. Another concept is that the Chinese `fear' straight paths e.g. a long straight corridor. The rationale here is because, they fear that `ghosts' or `spirits' go on a straight path or line.
Therefore, it is always best to have winding paths etc...
In your case, my advise is that if you want to place a Ba Gua above your main door, it is best to place it away from the home i.e. not to face inwards of the house. But rather, place it facing away from the interior of the home.
Warmest Regards,
Cecil
