Dear Jo, Frankly, currently I do not see any `harm' in installing a wall uplight next to the painting based on `intuitive' Feng Shui. However, normally again this should not be a problem other than if you have done a Flying Star chart and found that the sector is unfavourable or where `fire element' can do damage to that sector. Other than this consideration, it is acceptable to have the uplight.

Dear Margarita You apply the 8 house theory only to your unit. It is important that your bedroom and front door do not fall in your death or disaster lines. In your bedroom have your head pointing to one of your good directions in order to draw in good energy. Do not have your bed next to a bathroom or toilet wall.It is inauspicious for the bedroom door to face the kitchen sink also. If your front door is in one of your auspicious directions, good for you.This will be a good apartment for you provided all other areas are suitable. Cheers Glyn

Dear Joe, Although colours are of `secondary' importance in Feng Shui, from my own opinion, in the past, I `brushed' aside the notion of wearing colours that suits us. But looking back, I really find no harm in chosing clothes that suit a person. Like the saying goes " no harm playing it safe ". When I next shop for clothings, I will continue to buy shirts and trousers that suit me. In fact so far, my favourite colours since young turned out to be the colour that suits me. I personally believe that as white stands for the Metal element, it can also be considered a neutral colour. Therefore, for a person of Strong Metal element, in my opinion may continue to wear white or …

Dear Sean, First of all, let me welcome you to the forum on behalf of the users here:) Please see below:- -----Original Message----- From: Listmanager To: Recipients of 'free-advice' suppressed suppressed> Date: Thursday, May 20, 1999 4:28 PM Subject: My personal directions There are a few Feng Shui theories and concepts.

For a South House, North = Longevity NE = Disaster East = Prosperity SE = Health S = Excellent SW = Irritation West = Spook NW = Death Here, preferable that you sleep with your HEAD facing any of the good directions.

Dear Forum Users, Usually, under conditions of YIN, there may be " playfull imps " or spirits. They usually mean no harm to anyone but can bad cause "nightmares." Medium sized to large trees plus additional things like a wind chime may increase the YIN at such locations and attract such playfull imps to be around. Too many concentration of trees are considered a too YIN environment. For the benefit of new members here, my next door neighbour's bungalow has at least a minimum of 5 or more wind chimes located at the West or YIN location. This means that the likelyhood that one can get `mental problems'. True enough, this next door neighbour always carry around a video camer…

Dear Joe, The main consideration is that the bamboo plant should not be allowed to grow too `large' or too tall. If you are planting the bamboo plant e.g. at your garden, `proper maintenance' is required as in time, they will expand and lots of effort are required to main the plant. My suggestion is to plant the bamboo plant in a pot. Here, the bamboo plant will be contained. Bamboo plant is symbolic of:- 1. Many Chinese poems are written on sheets of paper with drawings of bamboo paintings. 2. As the bamboo tube is used to house fire crackers or fire works, it is symbollic of good luck as fire crackers dispel evil or scare them away. 3. The leave of the bamboo bends down…

Dear Glyn, Either the chimney be left alone or at the most cover the top and the ground level. Avoid filling the chimney fully as this will involving adding more `earth' element in the house i.e. if you are using earth element e.g. sand etc... Warmest Regards, Cecil Lee P.S. Congratulations Glyn! I believe, you are the first to incorporate Chinese Numerlogy as an additional tool combined with other tools such as Earth Luck: Feng Shui, Heaven Luck: Pillars of Destiny. Furthermore, you had `predicted' in two instances using Chinese Numerology very accurately:)) -----Original Message----- From: Listmanager To: Recipients of 'free-advice' suppressed suppressed> Date: Wedn…

Under the compass School of Feng Shui once the house is up, you can do a survey i.e. using a normal compass. In Feng Shui, you should be staying `there' in order to enjoy the " good " Feng Shui. …

Dear Debrah, 1. Best is that the ceiling is high. The higher the better as this will have less impact on you. 2. Avoid sleeping `dead center' (immediately under the) " V ". 3. One permanent way to counter act this is to use a `poster bed' i.e. with four pillars. One can use a cloth material overhead. (But this depends on your budget etc...) Sleeping under a slop is not as bad as sleeping directly under the " V" or a pillar. Depending on the material of the " V" e.g. if it is wood, one way is to use `metal' element to counter this. As there is not much information on your personal element or its strength is available, you may have to forgo this option. As for the aircon ve…

Dear Rebeca, There are a few considerations for a fish tank:- 1. Currently there are two methods at looking at the number of fishes to `rear'. Method 1: ======== The most common method is based on general good numbers of fish i.e. fishes should be numbering e.g. 5, 6, 8. (9 is still acceptable). Method 2: ======== The other method is based on your kua number ie. if your kua is Li or South, you should rear 9 fishes. If your Kua number is Kan (North), you should rear 1 fish, if your Kua number is Chen or East, then you should rear 3 fishes. Ideally, this is based on the breadwinner's Kua number 2. A good guideline is to take note of the colour of the stand you are using. Fo…
