General Help

Dear Angie, 1. I understand it can be quite confusing on `Feng Shui'. 2. Frankly, it is best not to use the Eight Associations or Eight Aspirations `Feng Shui' nor fixed template Feng Shui. 3. If you set aside the above, and start `fresh' as what you have done, you can use traditional Feng Shui for your benefit. 4. Unfortunately, each Feng Shui theory has its strength and weakness. When you are using the Eight House theory, it is more to find out : a. How suitable for you to your house. b. In the bedroom, are you sleeping in a good direction. c. Priority should be given to (b). and only after, you can see if you are sleeping with your head facing a good sector. This is l…

1. This reminds me of several encounters with Doctors (surgeons / GP or specialists). 2. Feng Shui is not an "exact" science and there are as many different practises as there are practitioners. 3. Many doctors (were used) to studying say the human body and many books e.g. Gray Anatomy etc.. detail the exact body structure, muscles, organs. And these are or have to be reproduced "exactly". 4. And several of these Doctors tried to "learn" Feng Shui. And, like yourself, found difficulty as such! Therefore, the consolation is that you are not alone!

1. This can be "explained" from a "Commonsense Approach" to Feng Shui. 2. Why is it that many Feng Shui practitioners say that a toilet or near to a toilet is no good? In the past, many Chinese homes do not have a toilet in the home, the toilet is a distance away from the home. 3. I have mentioned this many times: 3.1 One day, while driving along a highway, there was this radio feature, where this fella, says that where-ever one place one's toothbrush in the toilet, there sure to be "germs" on it. This is especially true, if we flush the toilet (bowl) and the fine mists shoots out all over the place. 3.2 And his solution? Buy his disinfection tablets much like those…

Dear Tricia, Yes, this is correct.

Usually it is best to havea sketch and it also depends on whether it is a Chinese altar or an Indian Puja or Pooja (hindu worship place).

Dear Anon, 1. If it is a concrete beam then use two wooden bamboo flutes:- http://www.geomancy.net/mypictures/cgi-bin/mypictures.cgi?img=0&search=bamboo&cat=Feng_Shui_Cures&bool=and&x=11&y=17 2. Place the bamboo flute on any side of the concrete beam. 3. If it is a wooden beam (usually if it is less than 3 inches (width) by 6 inches -- there is really not much issue or the supression of Qi is in my opinion minimal. Otherwise, for concrete beam - metal element should be used instead. Warmest Regards, Cecil Lee

Dear Anon, Anonymous wrote: My bedroom is situated over the garage. This is more a common sense reasoning. It is often considered inauspicious, because usually the garage where the car is kept. As you know the car will have petrol, then when you do work, sometimes you keep the oil or flamable products in the garage. Soshould there be a fire, the bedroomif located on top will be the firsttobe affected.This is similiar to the kitchen. However, what is the probability of a fire starting in the garage, then compared to the kitchen. So this is not really as bad or as inauspicious. A pratical solution would just to install smoke detectors or sprinklers for safety. Anonymous …

Doesn't every combination have a Mountain star? On the Top left...

Thank you Sir. Jason

Dear Anon, 1. Yes, it is preferred that the bedroom door is closed. 2. A plant may not be appropriate especially if the staircase is not large but just nice for one or two persons to walk past. 3. You can also try to use the Eight House chart to see if you can plan your bedroom i.e. to orientate your bed-head and work/study to a good facing direction.

Dear Joe, Gong Xi Fa Cai! (Mandarin) (Kong Si Huat Chai! - Hokkien) From a Shapes and Forms Feng Shui perspective: 1. Mountain with water painting =============================== If the painting has a "mountain, water image" e.g. a flowing water running down from a stream, then, often, some Chinese homes would place it next to the main door. Therefore, when one opens the main door, the painting e.g. on the side of the wall would allow "water" (symbolic) of wealth to flow into the home. But make sure that this type of painting is not placed on a wall facing a balcony or window. As wealth may inadvertenly flow out. 2. Purely Mountain painting (Or painting with birds flying…

Dear Anon, 1. Yes, the 2nd floor may affect the Feng Shui (below - ground floor) especially if the "two units" are not "identical in layout". For example, if a home is converted into a "duplex" or the layout of the above unit is not identical to the ground floor. 2. For example, we often find homes like a bungalow where things like the 2nd storey toilet may be just above our ground unit main entrance or sometimes it could be just above one's dining area. And for some Chinese who had placed an altar at the ground level; may also be affected if their altar is just directly below a toilet. 3. Otherwise, often, if both ground unit, 2nd storey etc.. share same layout pl…

Dear Anon, Anon wrote: My bedroom is located in the NorthWest-West area of my house. My bed is in the perfect spot within the bedroom, but once you open the bedroom door it faces a toilet door. Generally, anything that faces the toilet door isn't auspicious. Especially, if you can see the toilet bowl when the toilet door is opened.There are usually only two ways to solve it:- 1. The most practical, is try to keep the toilet door closed. Also, keeping the toilet seat cover down when not in used is also a good open. …

Thank you very much for your quick reply. I do appreciate the help. Shaunna

In my opinion, these are some of the considerations: 1. Currently at this stage, it is anyone's guess whether it is good or bad. 2. As Feng Shui has it's tools to analyse such things. 3. Thus your statement is currently a question-mark. 4.You may choose to do nothing; and there are no major issues; if it ain't broken don't fix it.

Hi, Usually Christmas Trees are displayed for a short duration before and after 25 December. This is not a problem and the lightnings and many do place an Angel on top of the tree. The flashing lights do add to increase Yang Qi and it is a "welcome" change. Once the festivities are over, it is usually removed and not a permanent "fixture". Similarly, some Chinese homes or shops have the equivalent of placing a Red piece of cloth with auspicious wordings above their main door during Chinese Lunar New Year. Often many take them out soon after. Warmest Regards, Cecil

These are some of the considerations: 1. Even under the traditional Chinese zodiac sign; although Dog and rabbit are considered a good match, however, over time; it can be considered as a "dull match":- http://www.lovesigns.net/horoscope/areference/crbdo.htm 2. Based purely on the Chinese zodiac, most likely the "spark" or "romance" between the pair is.... 3. However, in modern times; there are other levels of considerations:- 3.1. Earth Luck or Feng Shui (involves things like plotting a flying star chart and disarming stars like #3 etc..) 3.2. Human or man luck factors: this includes your boss's current mindset; or sometimes your boss may have family problems or other pe…
