Dear Yumeko, 1. Usually, it is advisable not to do anything prior to the `symbolic move'. 2. However, the customs differ greatly. And some may:- 2.1 Sprinkle rice and/or salt. 2.2 Some bring in a pair of mandarin oranges (where the oranges represent gold). Frankly, majority simply go in and open the door when one get's the key. As mentioned, if one wants to do a `ritual' or first time opening of the door, one can do nothing or any of the above or more. In my opinion besides rice and/or salt; there are too many variations e.g. placement of Red Packets (ang pow); purchase of `Huat Quay' Warmest Regards, Cecil

Dear Eve, Apologise for the delay. There are many ways to look at this. I am looking at it based on harmony of the people and type of business selected. Actually, this combination of element is ok. 1. Wood Strengthen fire fire will also exhaust some wood Wood is weaken so unable to destroy Earth. 2. Fire gains strengths from Wood, which then provide Earth with more resources strengthen you (weak earth). Normally, when there is a destruction and a production, often the production sequence takes place first. Thus, the destruction process is weaken. Thus, that is the main reason why normally for a Strong Earth, wood is not the best solution, but instead Metal will be mo…

1. Yeah, hammering 3 nails isas what you had mentioned; not the norm. Or if I can be frank enough "weird". 2. Firstly, from a commonsense approach:needs lots ofstrength and often even hammering nails into wood is hard enough not to say hammering nails into the walls. 3. Symbolically, it may even be a double edgedsword: beforemoving into a new home: itmay even beconsidered inauspicious todriving three nails into one's home.

Dear GY, Yes, it is nice-to-have (not must-have) a date to start work (repainting). And if the gate is changed nearly the same time, then, no need to choose another good day.

Even in western numerology 8 is considered a money number, although perhaps too many 8's might indicate greed and domination. 5 is also considered an opportunity number in western numerology. Just thought you might be interested J.D. Listmanager wrote:

In my opinion: 1. There is no precedence on your current business model and Feng Shui. 2. For example, Feng Shui is about the earth luck. Thus for example, if you had asked about a business built on brick and mortar. Then Feng Shui may be consulted. 2.1.For example, please see the attached 4 photos. Here, a client mayseek advice on which premises is more favourable for his/her e.g. Internet caf?. 3. But things like Chinese 7th month and waning moon istotally not within the scope of Feng Shui. 4. Under the Chinese"Holy Trinity" of Luck system: 4.1. Earth Luck as mentioned is Feng Shui of the place one works at or one spends time e.g. a home. 4.2. Heaven Luck is cons…

Hi, Really sorry, but currently there is no ancient written documentation on cars. I think this is quite obvious as cars were not invented then. The only aspect is on whether it is auspicious to travel towards a specific location. If you are moving around your city or community, then this most likely cannot apply. Warmest Regards, Cecil

Thanks Robert, I can change my office color, if not full office atleast my chamber's colour. Also my ba zi report is as follows:- Birth Element Since you are a weak Wood, you don't want to be too weak otherwise you cannot take advantage of your Wealth Element. Thus, you should increase yourself with your favourable elements as follows. Favourable Elements Most Favourable Element Colour: blue/black/gray Favourable Element Colour: green/brown Unfavourable Elements Most Unfavourable Element Colour: white/gold Unfavourable Element Colour: red This is a very important concept for you to improve your luck. Five element can be applied in many w…

1. In my opinion, the biggest mistake of many is that often, missing corners are never over looked while it is often that protrusions are always missed. 2. Thus just try to check to see or confirm the above. 3. Since missing corners may be interpreted differently depending where the missing corner, is. 4. For example. major missing corner at NW may impact on two issues: luck from heaven 2. luck of the breadwinner. 5. Usually if the missing corner makes up to 33.3 percent of the total area, it should be considered as minor missing corner. Thus no further action is needed.

Hi, It is ok to have marble on the floor. Murals for decoration are fine. Provided it is not a water scenery covering the entire mural or of `hungry', prowling animals. It is quite uncommon in most regions to have murals on the ceiling. Frankly it is also new to me so at this point unable to comment further. Warmest Regards, CEcil

Dear Anon, 1. When we consider water, water in a fish tank is usually slower moving. 2. While a fountain, stirs up the water and faster moving. 3. There is no concrete measure as to how beneificial `qi' if any from a fountain or fish tank is. 4. But, based on Feng Shui concepts, because, water movement e.g. water flow, mixed with `air' is more vibrant and faster moving. 5. Based on the `faster' moving water, it is thus recommended that between having a fountain or a fish tank, a fountain would be considered having a higher potential of generating `qi' or stirring of the air, mixed with water. 6. When one talks about a fountain or even an artificial waterfall, it is not …

Thank you for the information.

1. This is a true story: 1.1 Hong Kong Shanghai Bank (HSBC) buiding in Hong Kong was built, first. 1.2 Bank of China's (BOC) building came later. And it is shaped like a Chinese sword. 1.3 To counteract this, HSBC bank shaped it's helicopter pad in the form of a cannon aimed back towards BOC. 1.4 To make the story short, later on, the Cheung Kong center placed two18th century cannons (or twin cannons) against another building. 2. So you want to place a cannon? Even if it is an ornamental cannon, avoid facing inwards of a home. At best, it should be aimed out of the home. If your home has a balcony than "like a goal keeper" aim it out or clear of the home!

Hi Master Lee Appreciate if you can advise on the following: The DB cabinet is placed in a way that cuts into the walk way from the main entrance as seen in the picture below and this DB cabinet cannot be moved. Is there any concern with this? Will it help if a curved cabinet is placed next to the DB cabinet to lessen the appearance of a sharp edge? Thank you!

You cannot simply use Feng Shui for every excuse! For example; it is lame for a barber to say " after cutting your hair, you will have better Feng Shui". What BULL! (bullshit)... Feng Shui is about Earth Luck. Cutting hair and feeling comfortable or feel good has more to do with one's self - man luck or human luck feel good factors.

Hi Robert, Thanks for advise, not sure if I want to change the house period as changing it to period 8 means that the timelystars 1,6,8 are all locked up in the centre sector. Too bad huh? Cheer... Fanny

1. In my opinion, your question is still in-complete. 2. For example: the key essence, here should instead be looking into:- 2.1. HEALTH (#2 sickness, #5 misfortune, sickness) 2.2. WEALTH (#3 quarrels, conflicts, lawsuits, #7 lost opportunies "theft" of luck, #5 misfortune etc..) 3. Thus, the most practical approach is to what you said. 4. Of course, if the facing direction has "WEALTH" but if the bedroom has health issues; many people would prefer health, first and foremost. Who don't want wealth. But, without good health how to enjoy wealth peacefully or happilly 5. Instead: I should ask you the question: 5.1. Would you mind good health but not that great in wealth or l…

Dear Fraser, Please see below:- Overall, for bikes, there is no impact under Feng Shui. It is a `small' object in relation to the size of the house/room. I have to clarify that bikes need human intervention i.e. you must sit on it and paddle in order to move. As for a clock, it `moves' by itself i.e. the mechanism within moves continously. Under Feng Shui, it is considered an object that can deflect sha qi. This is why it should not be placed facing a door or a window unless you want to counter an opposing `sha qi' coming into the house. No. As stated above, it is used only if there is a sha qi opposite it. Here, you can then use it. Otherwise, it is not an e…

These are some considerations:- 1. From a Feng Shui point of view: the key essence is " Form prevails over substance " or rather bear this in mind "THE FORMS (Shapes & Forms) DETERMINE THE STARS, THE STARS DETERMINE THE FATE OF THE PEOPLE LIVING IN A HOME." 2. When ever there is a major conflict between Shapes and Forms and the Stars (Compass School of Feng Shui) which includes the Eight House concept; 3. The above statement implies that Shapes and Forms prevail over Flying Star. 4. Why is this relevant to your case? 5. Many of us, after purchasing a home or trying to renovate a bedroom; would often have a preconceived idea of how the layout would be like. 5.1.…

Our neighbours are make our life very difficult.We have a big fight with them. What can we do to neutralize this problem. Feng Shui is by no means a miracle cure to all problems, especially not in people to people relationship which is related to Human Luck. In terms of feng shui, areas relating to quarrels/conflict are star 3 in the flying star chart especially near your frontage or main door. If there are any, you can try to reduce it by having Metal to control the sector, or Fire to exhaust the star if there are no Star 2/5. You can use th…
