Power lines crossing view of mountains

[myfs_96718]

I just moved into a home that has high power transmission lines about 40 feet from the back yard fence. There is a view of mountains from the back yard which the master bedroom overlooks. Would hanging a mirror in the window, reflect bad chi from the power lines and capture good chi from the mountains? Or would the lines, cutting across the view of the mountains, cancel out any good chi? What else can I do to counteract the electromagnetic radiation from the power lines?

Dear Wayne,
1. Yes, some Feng Shui books warn of living close to high power transmission lines. Here, some of these books quote the magnetic field coming from such lines as `unsafe' for health.
2. So far, if I am not mistaken, there were studies conducted even by Universities to say that there are no adverse effects on human beings.
3. This could also explain why, some of us are still `allowed' by the authorities to live close to these power-lines.
4. Under Commonsense approach to Feng Shui, it is always safer to stay clear of power towers. Not because of any ill effects (magnetic force) but rather, in an unlikely senario of the tower falling down e.g. due to high winds or gale force wind etc.. Many would say this is a remote possibility. It may or may never happen!
5. In my opinion, so long as the structure does not seem to slice thru e.g. an open window or the main door, there is nothing to worry about.
6. I suspect, the other concern has more to do with "Human factor" or asthetic and our perception that high voltage is considered "dangerous". This is only a human perception.
7. In my opinion, unlike microwave energy (commonly found) in handphones in various degrees - depending on the manufacture, magnetic fields is in fact more evident in our homes. As many homes have wiring (lower voltage) running within our homes.
8. In the US, the voltage is around 110 volts. Here in Singapore and UK, the voltage is twice that i.e. 240 volts. Many people still live on average to 80 years of age.
More likely, overeating e.g. overweight - has a higher contributing factor to poor health than anything else.
Warmest Regards,
Cecil
