Hi

I can't place the mirror on the north, because it will reflect my bed. The only other options are: NW, right after I come it will be on the left; SW, where it is right now; NE, and, maybe SE - if I remove my dresser from SE (growth direction) and put the dresser into NE.



Use the SE if possible. Both the glass and the wavy shape are considered to be water, giving growth to the SE.

2. If the waste basket is placed in one of my good directions at work, like Health, can I minimize the damage by covering it with a sheet of paper during the day, and when it is cleaned in the evening before leaving work, it can be left uncovered? Or, I can place it to the NE, which is one of my unfortunate directions, under the cubicle desk, but that way it will be opposite and very visible from the entrance, so kinda in the incoming energy flow...



Go with what feels right to you here. Without seeing the actual situation, I'd say put it in the NE and then maybe hide the side with paper or decorate it.

3. When we talk about "poison arrows" from the bookshelves, when are they exactly "bad" that need to be covered? Do they "shoot" straight? If I don't sit straight in front of them, but like diagonally, is it all right?



They aren't that big a deal, especially if you're not right in their path. Arrange the books on the edge, rather than at the back, so that the shelves do not become poison arrows.

Well, how about the fountain in the SE, if placing it in the North is not a option?



The north is more a career thing. The SE is abundance. Check your time Feng Shui for the fountain, since moving water will also activate certain things in that dimension that can be tricky to handle.

In the front-yard of our house (the front door is in SE of the house), the previous owners left a statue of a woman holding a vessel and standing in a little flower-like "pool". Definitely looks like a fountain, but it was never operating. No cords, no idea how to even make it work, nothing. It's been empty, naturally, which concerns me - like "empty abundance"? Shall I at least fill the "pool" with water and change it when it gets dirty?



I tend to say yes. Fill it up and see how it changes the energy for you.
