This question has been asked many times. Basically, you should use the give and take method. For breadwinner (yourself), ensure that the house facing is suitable to you so that you enjoy luck from the house facing. For the rest of the family member, you should make sure the rooms are suitable for them to stay in. As they will be getting the luck more from the bedroom. For husband and wife that have opposite Gua (Kua), the breadwinner takes a house facing that is favoura…

Dear Dominique, 1. Frankly, there is no issue in working out two charts and looking at both. 2. However, try not to use the type of logic that you had mentioned below. 3. But instead, try to make sense of this:- 4. Many years ago, many houses were built under Period 6. But because, in 1984, Period 7 came into being. 5. Often, as an investigative Feng Shui; one can plot the chart for Period 6 and Period 7. In many cases, quite alot had experienced Period 6 (staying in that house for several years). 6. What these people do is to see if later on Period 6 or Period 7 houses closely resemble their current situation. 7. Going forward, what you can do is to do two charts and see…

Dear Anon, If your bedroom is in the East and that your house has been either built within 1984 to-date or any major renovation of an existing home within this period, most likely, the house will be affected by this " Five Yellow " star. The cure usually depends on the Flying Star Feng Shui analysis and the direction of your main entrance door direction. Under the Flying Star Feng Shui, there are a total of 24 directions. And a house main door depending on its direction can be situated at anyone of the 24 directions. Most of the Period 7 house have a compounding problem where the 20 year flying star may have " Bad Five Yellow " and coincidentally, another Bad Five Yello…

This link provides some commonsense idea with regards to the concern of the bunk beds:- http://wiki.geomancy.net/wiki/Commonsense_Approach#Can_I_install_a_bunk_bed_for_my_children.27s_bedroom.3F 2. Usually, it is best not to let the "legs" face the bedroom door as to the Chinese; this is known as the "coffin position". But, other safety aside; some place a "screen" or organizer pouch at the baby-bed panel; thus acting like a screen between the child's legs and the bedrooom door.

1. Possible for a Block of flats. Here, especially the frontage of all units face a specific direction. 2. For a landed property, it depends: 2.1. If the neighbours are in-close proximity; say each is a small plot of land, your "south" frontage may be facing another plot's side-view. Here, if one is "unlucky", one may even get to face the toilets of the neighbour or even their backyard (some) with messy storage and hanging laundry. In addition, one will be in big-trouble, if the neigbhour's home roof is triangular shaped and have several of these "attacking" your "south" facing home. 2.2.Try to plot the Flying Star and take the opportunity to "activate" say the double …

Dear Koslan, Please see below:- Yes, one should apply cures for any imbalances at the specific sectors. If one is applying the Eight House Theory, then apply it towards (especially) your bedroom i.e. is the bed at an auspicious sector? Or if it is a couple, one party could use another as a shield. For example, if the husband's sector is `death' while the wife is `irritation'; it would be better for the wife to sleep closer to this intangible force and the husband further away. In order to activate the mountain stars:- 1. It must not be activated i.e. at the front door or frontage of the house. For example, if a mountain star is found at the front door, do not ac…

Dear CECIL, I had posted a similar question earlier. My confusion is that houses sitiing in the East directions are called EAST houses. Then according to this the house should face West(sitting in East),or North(sitting in South) or South(sitting in North) orNW(sitting in SE).Now out of these NW and W are not considered to be good directions for the East group people, especially if they happen to be Death and Disaster directions for an individual. Please comment. Thanking you very much.

These are some considerations: 1. Please note that what I had written does NOT take into consideration: http://wiki.geomancy.net/wiki/Feng_Shui_Triage 2. No two home are the same. And common sense says that : "It depends!" 3. Frankly, there no such thing as an utopian home. Thus most homes must also look at:- http://wiki.geomancy.net/wiki/The_Concept_of_Maximizing_Marks 4. To better understand and make your own opinion on "the direction of the MAIN DOOR"; I suggest you go read the following information:- http://forum.geomancy.net/phpforum/article.php?bid=2&fid=6&mid=15673&new= http://forum.geomancy.net/phpforum/article.php?bid=2&fid=6&mid=15672&ne…

1. Mathematically, there are 50 percent who are East group and 50 percent who are West group (full stop). 2. If one already had purchased or stayed in an existing house or apartment, is it possible to get the earthquake to move your home so that it aligns to your good directions? Yes/No? 3. This "obession" with whether your home is East or West is "history" if one intends to stay in that specific home. Unless, you are saying that you intend to move-out. 4. One has to be realistic. And if trying to apply Feng Shui, make sure that there are no further "loss of wealth leaks" etc.. By applying proper Feng Shui. 5. If you close your eyes, the direction facing would'nt go…

Frankly, take a simple flow chart: 1. Either one goes to a geomancer. In this case, you should follow-up with your geomancer and ask him to find the leaks for you. or 2. DIY. For DIY, I have provided you some of the good practises. However, I can understand, many of us; simply are too impatient, here as there are lots and lots of things to take note. And the fact that if one don't even know how to find the leaks; Please refer to Para 1. 3. In the earlier, link; the fact is thateven allgeomancers needs to go thru the "Triage" to find out what are the leaks. A link which I posted earlier mentions this.

Dear Theo, 1. Frankly, the analysis that you mentioned is but only one of the many considerations before chosing a house. 2. Prior to what you had mentioned, there are other considerations to look at. Some are fundamental. 3. What you had described about is only micro Feng Shui. Or Feng Shui without first considering the environment. 4. I usually, consider this phase " Location, Location and Location " (the THREE Ls) as the most important factor. 5. When I mentioned the THREE Ls, we should more importantly look at the external environment: focusing on the site the house is located at and then afterwards look at the house (interior of the home). 6. The above are I believe …

Dear Sean, Sean Lee wrote: Robert Lee wrote: To analyse the kua number without converting to the chinese calendar would be wrong. This means that say if you are born on 1 Jan 1966, your lunar is actually 10 day 12 month 1965. So your kua number must be based on 1965 and not 1966. Thanks for your kind advice. Regarding the Kua number, it seems similar to the Western numerology. E.g. 1966 = 1+9+6+6. Shouldn't we be calculating based on some Chinese year figure? Didn't I say that you must use the Lunar year in my above quote? This means you should be using 1965(the lunarbirth year)if based on my example and not the western year 1966 (rather than the western birth year…

Dear Manoj, I would strongly recommend a Three-step approach in understanding not just e.g. the Eight House Theory; the Flying Star Theory but any other concepts or theories. As an example of the Three-step approach we first find out what the Flying Star Theory is: 1. The purpose of the Flying Star chart is plot out the `Birth Chart' of a house. Here, we must know when the house was `born'. 1.1 We should also find out it's strength and weakness. 1.2 For example, one of it's strength is that not only it can plot out the birth chart of a house, it can help to diagnose and neutralise the house or problems associated with the house. As the common denominator is based on the …

Further to what I had mentioned; these are further considerations: 1. As much of the forum message(s) goes back as far as 1999; this was where we hosted our forum on our own servers; previously; in 1996 to 1998 - used a free forum. 2. Do take note that for example; some of the information on Eastpoint Green was based on the critical period where there was a change of Flying Star (qi). 3. Here, Flying Star qi changes every 20 years: 3.1. From 1984 to 2003 (Period 7) and 3.2. From 2004 to 2023 (Period 8) 4. Thus, some of the concerns may or may not be the same. For example, I could remember clearly; on top of my busy schedules; 4.1 I had calls or urgent cases. And "s…

Dear David, David Chua wrote: I was once told by a roadside fortune teller that if one want to strike 4D/ToTo meaning better wealth luck, one should not eat beef....is this true ? I just can't see the logic of this....so wanted to seek your opinion. Thanks Frankly, whether or not a person can win lottery determines on luck. Individually, each person have certain amount of luck. Whether or not one will win depends on who's luck is best among the people who buy the 4D/Toto. Which is why it is so hard for most people to even touch a small prize. And why most of the time gambling isn't a guaranteed way to make money. In fact, you are more likely to lose the money you gamble …

Feng Shui of Ecopolitan: By Ranking of stacks of just Five (5) stacks :#06, #7, #10, #11 & #26 This is a situation where there are only Five (5) stacks that one is interested in; but not sure which of these five are better. In such a situation; the breadwinner's best eight sectors are compared for each stack and a weightage and analysis done for each sector. Thus, if the findings is good; then shown in blue. If sector does not match the breadwinner's than it is in red and considered such as : "Not a major issue" or "Can be disarmed".

Dear Spencer, 1. Yes, I totally agree with your comments. 2. When Dahlia Park TOP, the condo was like a second home as I had clients in nearly all the blocks. 3. What strikes me was that even if these are condos, as you had mentioned, they are firstly freehold; 4. In an exclusive private residential area with both low rise and even all condos in the area has a height restriction or often called `semi-low' rise condo apartments. Most likely because of airport restrictions on the outer-zone. 5. I always felt peaceful, within this private residential encave. Nowadays, it could even be worse-off is to stay close to embassies especially the American or British as often these …

Dear Michelle, 1. Yes, looks like both units are affected by the afternoon sun. 2. Generally, usually it is the physical look at the prison that makes some uncomfortable. For example, the ballota park condo, where, the access road to/out ofthis condo is facing the prison "gate", even to the extent that I have clients asked me whether it is acceptable to have a prison so close-by. 3. To be truly honest, this is not a major issue. However, it is wise to choose an apartment that does not have a view of the prison. For the simple reason that future re-sale of this apartment can be pretty bad or no takers at all. 4. Otherwise, living close-by to a prison is of no issue. 5…

Dear Sybil, 1. In your case where the re-roofing and extended kitchen is likely to change the house from a period 6 to period 7 house. Especially if the re-roofing involves completely taking out the roof, insulation and ceiling. This will definately change it to a period 7 house. 3. In feng shui for example, if the stove faces the water position or basin, one can place a mirror on the basin side directly reflecting the stove hob to reflect the fire back to the stove. 4. Since you are not using this sector as a study room, then there is very little you can do here. I mean unless it is a study room then this education/career sector will have good influence otherwise…

Further to what I had mentioned; For those who need to find out the significance of anything e.g. a bagua mirror facing a home etc... it is always best to find out or as the saying goes, a picture paints or tells a thousand words.

Dear Anon, This really depends on a few factors:- 1. If it is a home/office built anytime after 2004, it will automatically be a period 8 house. 2. For houses built in period 7, it will remain a period 7 house until a major renovation is done to convert it. Please note, that a major renovation typically means changing of the house structure by knocking down some wall etc. Such renovation will take effect amost immediately. Most other renovations that are less major (ie painting of wall etc), or morelike repair work typically are not enough to constitute a major renovation, so it may or may not change depends on how much works are done. Most of the luck from home com…
