Here, especially for anyone who wants to determine whether:

1. Is this a missing corner?

2. Can this be a protrusion instead of a missing corner?

Under Para 1, for ease of identification, we consider a sector (we divide the house equally into 9 sectors).

If the area of the sector is greater than 33.3% of the size of that sector, this is usually considered as a missing corner.

If it is a `slight' recess, perhaps, you may want to check to see if this is truly a missing corner i.e. 33.3percent of the area is missing.

As mentioned above, if the area of the missing corner is not 33.3 percent or greater than this, it usually is not considered a missing corner.

A small mirror, does not `effectively' provide the "depth" require to cure a missing corner > 33.3 percent. It only acts as a means of psychological `comfort' to ease one's mind. Perhaps this can help.

Usually, if we want to analyse a sector, the Flying Star is used to analyse the sector:

1. to find out the elements at this sector.
2. If there is an imbalanced at this sector, a neutralising element is used to `cure' it.
Alternatively, this sector may not need any `cures' at all or the addition of metal may create more imbalances. Or, wood would be a `cure'.

If one does not want to use the Flying Star to analyse, better leave it along. The saying goes " if it ain't broken, please don't fix it".

Warmest Regards,
