Dear Cheryl, In my opinion, there should not be an issue with the situation that you had described. From a Feng Shui point of view, this is not an issue. There are some concern by some people only if there is a upper floor e.g. bedroom just above the car-porch. In such a situation, someone said that in the event that a car caught fire, it would be dangerous to have the car below this bedroom. But to be honest, how often have we heard that stationary cars catch fire. Alternatively, smoke detectors or fire safety sensors could be used, here.

1. Usually indoor plants are often waxy and darker green colour. These are the most suitable indoor plants. 2. There are at least three very common bamboo plants. The advantage of bamboos are that they are very hardy and some varieties grow very well indoors with little maintenance. 3. Symbolically, to the Chinese, bamboo represents "youth" and when combined with some other characters could mean "longevity". 4. So long as the plants does not have thorns; they are generally acceptable although preference is on the porch and often not found in the interior of the home.

Dear Ber, Actually, it would greatly depend on what the FS teacher is analysis for and what are the tools he had used. Sorry, without details on the house or your information or even having seen your house, it is difficult or not proper for me to may any comments on this matter. It is also not good to have too many person looking at the same house. So long as you feel comfortable with his advices, then you should just follow it. Warmest Regards Robert Lee

Dear Anon, To be honest, some homes or apartments have bad Flying star numbers at the centrepoint of the home, especially under Period 7. Therefore, in general, a toilet is exactly not a major issue for such homes. Instead of placing those mirrors or screens or false wall, in my opinion, it is simply to leave it as it is. And, if possible, try to maximize or enhance qi or neutralise qi in a home in other areas. From a practical point of view, few if any nowadays, place a mirror at the toilet door. And those false walls is often very cumbersome to get in and out of the toilet when there is limited space. And most importantly the toilet if possible should be dry and ai…

Dear Anon, Most practioners do not take into consideration the covered porch as it is not a `living quarters'. A few persons I understand took it wrongly to mean that this is a `missing' corner or a `protrusion.'. Since you are using a pie chart, you should usually consider up to the Main entrance door area. I agree that using a pie chart, is much easier than using the 9 squares method. What matters most is to be able to know what influences is at each of the sector. From here, you can then better place your furniture etc... Warmest Regards, Cecil

Dear Carpazia, Further to what I had mentioned earlier; we can look at the Eight House Theory from a different perspective by asking some questions: 1. How suitable is the house to the breadwinner? If the main entrance is the breadwinner's " death or disaster intangible force "; then this house is considered the most unsuitable to the breadwinner. 2. If the house is most unsuitable to the breadwinner - what does it imply/mean? It means that overall, the breadwinner would not enjoy a quantum leap in Feng Shui. Do note however, that if the Shapes and Form of the house is excellent (or exceptionally excellent) this can instead provide a quantum leap in Feng Shui. 3. If there…

Further to what I had mentioned:- 1. In the past, I mentioned, just imagine; you have a family of 8 adults and teenagers. 2. If you own a saloon car which may seat a maximium of 5 persons, tell me, how are you going to squeeze another 3 more family members into this saloon car? 3. Eight House theory is similar to this situation: Either you can or cannot. 4. Like the British always say: Bloody hell, then get yourself a large MPV that can seat 8 persons (full stop). 5. You can't just tie one family member on the roof, another stuffed into the bonnet and drag another family member right?

Hi, Please read below:- You can hang anything you want. The only thing is when you want to be concerned with Feng Shui, then you would want to hang items which are good for you rather then bad for you. Say if you a a weak wood, then hanging water type objects is beneficial for you because it is your favourable elements that help you grow. Say if you are Earth person, then hanging water type objects represents your Wealth as Earth destroy Wealth. However, please note that you should be a strong Earth to have full benefit of this because, when your earth is used to destroy water element, it gets weaken also. So it all depends. Nothing in the world is all bad. It is bad…

This reminds me (remotely) of another "incident" of the time, I went to Mcdonald's HQ (previously) at their HQ @ 2nd level King Albert's... Search for "mcdonalds" in the forum search function at the top left corner of this forum frame or Reference: http://forum.geomancy.net/phpforum/article.php?bid=2&fid=1&mid=26725&new= Although the subject matter "Flyover" is the same; their was because of the flyover that was built and curved (sliced) towards their HQ.... Frankly, without any photos or visual images, very difficult to see how bad it is. As it is, it sound real bad. From a Feng Shui point of view; besides looking at the Flying Star numbers; the other key ar…

Hi Robert Lee, Thanks for your reply ! I am glad to hear your detailed explanations and feel a little at ease now. I have actually booked the solemnization date at ROM on 18th March 2005. And my marriage is an international marriage. My future spouse is a Japanese and I am Singaporean. If I would like to check if this date is suitable for both of us(me & my future spouse), how can I do it through you? How much do you charge ? Hope to hear from you soon! Thanks ! Regards.

If you D.I.Y.; then the advice is to plot a Flying Star chart; analyse the various stars: in particular the #3's.

Dear Anon, Please see below:- - In my opinion, in general, it is best if one can not to purchase the house. - Perhaps, you can also ask the existing owner what is the rationale for them selling the unit. 1.What is your view on the effect of the station & the lane and the unit??s overall feng shui and it??s cure? Frankly, it is NOT practical to `cure' such a Yang effect coming from the Fire station. Not practical because, one has to literally close the curtains or close the main door most of the time. 2. Will it benefits a breadwinner of weak earth element perhaps needing more fire? This is to do more with which direction the main door is facing and whether it mat…

Further to what I had mentioned, because the wall behind the stove is not flat, and under certain conditions: 1. windy day 2. a window or window(s) close-by to the stove 3. open windows It may result in air-circulating behind the stove, blowing air against the flames towards the person standing at the stove. - Quite dangerous. Please see illustration.....

Dear Anon, For the benefit of new users, NE is called the Devil's Gate while SW is the Devil's Backdoor. On the other hand, NE is also considered the Heaven's gate also. I sincerely believe that the author only generalises the NE and SW. In fact, as I mentioned above, it is also the gate of Heaven. From many personal experiences; especially the NE can be `controlled' i.e. avoiding a large lone tree, large pools of water and any other thing that helps to reduce the Yin forces. Emphasis on Yang elements at this sector. One very neutral thing to do is to keep the location bright. Where possible avoid Metallic wind chimes as this may inadvertenly enhance or attract Yin for…

Dear Anon, Further to what I had mentioned earlier:- 1. Usually there is no major impact on the placement of metal wind chimes other finding a family member sleeping close to it could perhaps have nightmares. 2. It is the belief that nightmares are usually cased by playful imps, and in some cases cause nightmares especially if metal wind chimes are used (in the West, NW - which are the metal element sectors). Because, of the time element, where, if one place a wind chime at a particular sector, utimately there can be a situation where, there could be perhaps too much imbalance of the metal element at a sector... and it could cause the above. One can chart this out say us…

Dear Jason, Please read below:- ----- Original Message ----- From: Listmanager To: Sent: Tuesday, July 06, 1999 11:33 PM Subject: Wealth Elements The element which you destroy is your wealth element. However, although I can generally deduce the element is represented by it, in order to deduce whether it is main wealth or unexpected wealth, you need to refer to the Pillars as a condition is required to deduce it.

1. Please ponder over this " Rome is not built within a day". 2. And if applying Holistic Feng Shui is as easy as placing an amulet or just replied to another question of using a Ba gua mirror to attract qi - this is ridiculous! 3. Might as well wait for money to fall from the sky. 4. These are some of the Key Success Factors in D.I.Y. Feng Shui 4.1 Some of these concepts need understanding and some are strategies to better DIY Feng Shui:- * Fast Food Feng Shui * Feng Shui Triage * Fix-the-Leak, First! * Situational Approach * The Concept of Maximizing Marks * The Concept of Feng Shui by Exception * The Customer Engineer Concept * The Three-Step-Approach * T…

Dear Sophia, Look at it this way: millions or billions of people have never ever worshiped Tai Sui. Like yourself and your family, personally, I also have not done so. Nowadays, we read "clever" people putting the notion for us to do so. Frankly, it is so easy for them to tell us to do so. But, often these are marketing ploys. I believe, these "clever" people may not also have done so. We often hear of practitioners who give advise. But often the advise is only a short time e.g. 1 or 2 hours. Horror stories of "cannot use the toilet totally" etc... And the poor owner dare not use the toilet for life! Most of the time we should understand : "You stay there (your home)…

Hi Master Lee I have read in several places that the SW sector represents the female. If the female resides in a place where the toilet/kitchen/storeroom is in the SW sector, it is supposedly extremely detrimental. 1)does this mean that she should eliminate such a unit when house hunting? 2)does this common belief have any basis at all? 3)are there workable remedies to address it? Would appreciate your views. Thank you.
