Feng Shui for Business

Dear Lionel, Part I - On Company Signages 1. Ideally, measure is also important for a signage. Thus a signage should both have Yin and Yang elements. Thus for example: If the length of the signage is 'odd numbers' than the breath of the signage should be 'even numbers". For example: Length is 89 cm while Breath is 40 cm or Length is 17 inches while breath is 12 inches etc... 2. Colors of a signage A signage should have three colors. As three stands for progress while two colors for a signage stands for "death". In Feng Shui also, some Masters will first determine the direction of the main entrance and recommend suitable color of signage to suit that sector. 3. H…

I'm thinking about painting the top panel red (fire), the middle panel white (metal), the last panel red (fire). The building will be painted beige (earth). My reason for these colors is that fire produces earth, which produces metal, which is burnt by fire to create wealth. Is my reasoning correct? Please advice. This sounds about right. Top panel red (fire) -

My company is currently dealing with software distribution and I'm considering to have a penguin included in the company logo as it's related to the software. Is it advisable? What objects/animals is the best to be used as a company logo? If this was true than probably in terms of Computing the Linux which uses the penguin should have close down now because it uses the penguin as an icon. But instead it has been gaining momentum as well as popularity. Or in terms of cat food which uses cat as logo, or dog food which uses dog as an logo wil…

Dear Anon, Anonymous wrote: Can you see if a manager is compatible with his employee for exemple if one is strong fire and the other is weak fire are they compatible ? Generally, weak fire will benefit from the Strong Fire, as fire will make weak fire stronger. The Strong Fire, will lose some fire in the process. However, though the element pairing of weak and strong fire seems like a good pair. The problem comes with the fact, that because of the same element type ie Fire and Fire element, the two person will tend to want to compete and also may not see eye to eye with each other. Thus, there may be some potential friction between the two. So not really the best kin…

The most binding element for the partnership is Metal. As for custume jewelry, it is mixed of Fashion (Fire) and Metal (jewelry),…

Dear Anon, 1. It is important to understand the Five Elements Concept. References: http://www.geomancy.net/resources/theories/fs-5element.htmand http://www.geomancy.net/resources/theories/fs-colours.htm 2. For example, if one has a small business or single proprietorship, then, guidelines of namecard (especially logo designs) can be based on Feng Shui:- 2.1 If for example, the individual isconsidered as a "weak water" person and under the Five elements concept, his/herbest elements are: Metal (metal helps water to grow); while water is also favourable for a "weak water" person. 2.2 Since metal is associated with white, silver and gold, a name card may incorporate t…

Dear Anon, 1. If possible, you can follow the sample format, attached. For a signage, it is best to go for length i.e. odd number and for the width even numbers. As odd number represent yang while even number represents yin. Thus such a signage is considered, balanced i.e. yin and yang in harmony. For example if you use cm, then length can be89cm while width can be 42 cm. Alternatively if you use inches then lenght can be59 inches while width can be 28 inches etc..

Dear Anon, 1. Ideally, for designing a company logo, it is advantages that look at the elements of a sole proprietor to determine his/her company logo. 2. However, given that there are four partners, this makes it so much more complicated to find a company logo BASED on four person's bazi profile. 3. This is because, most likely in a four-some like your situation, one may end up having 3 or four colours for the logo. Not practical. 4. Thus in your situation: 4.1 Either reduce to one ortwo MAJOR partners or 4.2 Design a logo based on the INDUSTRY your company is in. 5. Since your business deals with real estate, then the industry that it is in is considered as the …

Dear Max, For a strong fire person: best combinations are: 1. Earth (rectangular / square / yellow, cream or beige) with Metal (Circular / White / Gold or Silver) or 2. Metal (Circular / White / Gold / Silver) with Water (Wavy, blue, black or grey) Warmest Regards, Cecil

Dear Paula Ribeiro, paula ribeiro wrote: With so many companies going through mergers and layoffs, what are some feng shui tips that we can use to protect us in keeping our jobs and stability within the company? Sorry, but I do not believe feng shui can be of much help here simply because of the mechanics of how mergers works. I mean the people that get laid off from mergers, tends to be the company that is being bought over. Especially if you are on the company that is being bought over, the chances of being able to retain your position is less unless you possess very important skills or possess an indisposable asset to the company buying you. Feng Shui can only do so…

Dear Anon, Anonymous wrote: May I know if the Bazi concept can be applied to a company? I mean can we tabulate the company's own Bazi chart based on its incorporation date? If yes, how should we treat its gender? Not likely. This is because ba zi is supposed to chart a person's given luck at the time of birth. However, a company's luck is influenced more on the business model and economics of demand and supply. So the ba zi chart which is supposed to predict the type of luck given is not likely to be suitable to be applied to business. In fact, feng shui has only a small overall role in overall business.And most of the time is the EarthLuckfactor. Such as the location…

Dear Lay Eng, Have to empathise with you. To be honest; this has more to do with "human or man luck" then Feng Shui or Heaven's Luck (ba zi). Really very hard to solve given that you have such neighbours. Warmest Regards, Cecil

Dear Irina, 1. For info, only, unless it is Chinese name (mandarin or even dialect characters); each Chinese character(s) is represented by an element i..e. water, wood, fire, earth or metal.

Dear Little, Frankly, in authentic Geomancy; so long as one is selecting a Mandarin name for a business, fine! It can be looked at to check whether the name is both auspicious sounding (phonetic sound like) and also whether it meets Chinese Numerology and the Five Elements concept. Thus, it is quite similar in nature to a parent or grand parent going to a geomancer to help to select a new name for a Chinese baby child. But, if the business name is purely in English or even French etc.. there is no Chinese precidence in selecting a good name. Thus an English name like your propsed business name K Miss 3 does not follow any Chinese good or bad name. As Chinese Numerology…

Frankly, it is best that you try to seek professional help in your case. This is even more so if you have a home office and if you are not too sure on how to properly apply Flying Star Feng Shui.

In general, match-making involves co-ordination and "growth" thus can come under "wood" element. Dating is a process of getting to know, and trying (hopefully) to build a permanent relationship. Thus, since it involves also "building" a relationship, it can also be considered under the "wood" element. In a relationship, the act of quarrelling has to do with the "fire element". Quote: Anonymous wrote: Can you please advise me which element is matchmaking and dating consultancy agency?

1.Since, things went smoothly, you can either monitor the situation as often: "if it ain't broken, don't fix it" applies! 2. Although you had drawn a layout plan, for a proper analysis, often, the person's birthday, compass directions are often looked into. Thus, what you had provided is limited information. 3. Since you do not have your own office (room) or cubicle, it is much harder for any changes if any. Thus it is best that you monitor your situation, first.

1. Frankly, there is no precedence inba zion "such things". 2. Firstly:Ba ziis not a "cure all" or "everything cannot revolve around" in the name ofBa zi. 3. Designing a company LOGO : Yes, ba zi can be used as a basis to select colours and shapes. For designing a brochure "You ought to be kidding? Rite? 4. The discipline of designing a brochure - if you need experts go to the those "Advertiser - illustrators of sorts" not to a Geomancer, please.

1. Honestly, mastering Feng Shui can pose a significant challenge for those new to the practice or inexperienced in its principles. 2. Traditional Feng Shui encompasses both external and internal elements of a home or building, requiring the use of the compass school of Feng Shui - Flying Star to analyze and interpret the space effectively. 3. Therefore, the size of your desk is of lesser importance compared to the concepts discussed in the previous paragraph. 4. In Flying Star Feng Shui, a knowledgeable individual must create an accurate Flying Star chart, which may reveal specific numbers and combinations indicating potential issues or concerns within a p…
