What the magic mirror and magic fan symbolize and how to use them?
Ancient mirrors play an important role in taoist feng shui due to its reflective properties. For example mirror in the bedroom is considered bad feng shui because taoists believe that when we are asleep, our spirit wonders around. And if the spirit returns and see our reflected image in the mirror, then the spirit may get confused to which medium (the body or mirror) one should go back in. Therefore, having mirrors reflecting our bed would make us tired and dizzy the next morning.

The replica of ancient mirrors can be concave or flat but must always be circular in shape and made from brass as the main ingredient. The brass mirror will reflect rays that trigger lucky influences and space clearing purposes but never by the modern glass mirror. In ancient times, the mirror is flashed upon the bride on her wedding day to bring her luckiness. Ancient people also use mirror to clear away stale and dark energy from their face to start off a new day when they are going out for an important pursuit. Another example is rich people placed mirrors in their halls to prevent mad people from entering their homes. If one had studied the history of feng shui, the brass mirror was hung up on outside of the ancient bed-curtain to counteract, prevent, or dissipate devilish or unpropitious influences. It was supposed that evil spirits, on approaching to do harm, will be apt to see themselves reflected in the mirror, and becoming frightened, will betake themselves away without delay.

There were also countless examples of real life historical figures who claimed the magical effects of mirrors as follows:
1. Chin Shih Huang (the first emperor of Chin Dynasty AD255) was credited with the possession of a magic mirror, which had the power of reflecting the inward parts of those who looked upon it.
2. Li Shin Min (the second emperor of Tang Dynasty AD597-649) is recorded to have remarked, "By using the mirror of brass you may see to adjust your cap, by using antiquity as a mirror, you may learn to foresee the rise and fall of Empires."

5 bats surrounding symbol of longevity "sau"

Mirrors are also used extensively in feng shui to reflect bad energy, to multiply dishes at the dining, to camouflage angles and to expand small areas.

What is more, mirror as a gift represents good luck. Giving away a magic mirror to someone would bring marriage luck, descendants luck or even leap frogging promotion in his or her career.

On the other hand, the five bats on the other side of the mirror is the representation of five blessings from heaven: longevity, wealth, health, love and a natural death. Five bats represent the yang symbol of prosperity. It would bring us extreme happiness and a peaceful life with few problems. Together with the symbol of longevity in the center, it is an auspicious emblem of prosperity, happiness and longevity.

According to ancient beliefs, one could absorb the energy from a full moon with this magic mirror and then used it as a make-up mirror to create long term beauty and radiance in ones face.

Today, most Taoist Feng Shui Masters would provide a fan as a gift for their clients as a protective amulet after their consultation sessions.
