General Help

Dear Choon Leng, 1. This is not Feng Shui. 2. Under numerology or the science of it; there are many varied interpretations. 3. And it is very diffcult to say for sure which numbers are considered `auspicious'. 4. Given the fact that many years back, in Singapore, I do remember telephone numbers with 4 or 5 digits. Nowadays, HP numbers are 8 digits etc... 5. In modern times, with today's HP, we do not really need to remember a family member or friend's telephone/hp number. For example, anyone sending us an SMS or call us, we can simply `copy' this information into our HP's address book. Warmest Regards, Cecil

Dear Anon, For "fire-at-heaven's" gate, another remedy is the use of "earth" at the fire-gate-area. For example, earthenware or do add some pottery pieces at the location. Here, under the Five Elements concept: "Earth" element helps to draw or reduce the "Fire" element.

These are some considerations: 1. This East/West person is just the tip of the iceberg. 2. Thus there are even greater mass below the waterline. 3. For example: Shapes and Forms Feng Shui and even Flying star. And yet, these are not considered as yet;how then can you prematurely claim or cry wolf. 4. Often, it takes three or more major leaks or imperfections to cause a calamity; and most or majority of homes are not a bad that you seem to thing. 5. Thus without a TRIAGE how the hell do you know the situation.

Hi, Please see below:- A warm welcome:) An alternative method is use this site's Eight House at http://www.geomancy.net/fs/house1.htm Another alternative is simply sign up for a free account at http://www.geomancy-online.com (Under this URL, you can simply input the relevant details as `asked' by the program and the Eight House Chart is generated online for you. You can save it or print it anytime. It is too superficial for me to answer your questions. To analyse a house, you can be as simplistic or as detailed as possible. Simple answers to whether an apartment is good for you are as follows: 1. Use the Shapes and Form School. If you are new, perhaps, you …

Dear Janaki, From a Shapes and Form point of view under Feng Shui, yes, it is inauspicious to have a toilet door facing the main entrance. This is usually a fundamental flaw and difficult to correct. The only option to REDUCE the effect is to see if the toilet door can be `partitioned' away from the view of the main entrance. Try as we might, sometimes it is difficult to `cure' fundamental flaws in the house. Warmest Regards, Cecil

Thank you for the information.

Dear Anon, There is some truth in what was mentioned: 1. Under the Imperial Carpentry, most chairs should preferabley have armrests. 2. The profile of the lamp shade is important consideration in Feng Shui: /\ / \ || A lamp shade should preferably be `pointed' upwards. This stands for progress. Circle lamps are also considered good Qi generators i.e. light is considered generally good in Feng Shui. If one wants to use five light bulbs, it can be circular in shape and can either be made of crystal, glass or plastic. The material is not as important. Avoid lamp shades or lighting hanging in an upside down position: || \ / \/ This firstly looks like a poison arrow. Secondl…

Dear Anon, Please see below:- 1. Yes, I agree with you. There is indeed a controversy amongst Feng Shui practitioners on this matter. 2. Usually, in my opinion, it is best not to place a mirror based on the premise that if it ain't broken don't fix it. 3. From what I have observed, most often, it is the Cantonese dialect Feng Shui practitioners who use mirrors especially at the dining room. 4. The rationale why some Feng Shui practitioners advise not to use a mirror is because it also depends on the location of the kitchen. For example, if the kitchen is at the South of the house. South represents the Fire element. Here, you can understand that one should not further…

The door opens toward the inside. There is a load bearing wall on the left as you enter and open room to the right. Door swings toward the open area Carrie

Dear Anon, In traditional Feng Shui practise: 1. The number of claws on the dragon is important. The `highest' order is a Five Claw Dragon. Usually, in a home one should not use more than a four claw dragon. 2. The Dragon is the most Yang of all the `animals'. The traditional advise is that a dragon should only be placed "looking out" of a house e.g. facing a main door entrance or through a window. Personally, I use a dragon in my house overlooking a sha qi. I will try to take a picture of it and a brief description and show in under the new conference for picture attachments when I have the time. 3. As a bedroom should be a yin location, it is advised not to place one i…

Haha, I am laughing a lot too

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 Master Cecil Thank you so much for your valued advice. We greatly appreciate and now know what to do about my girl's room. Thank You once again Emily free-advice Listmanager wrote: From: Cecil Lee Dear Emily, 1. Yeah, you did the right thing by not using real water or yang water in this room. 2. Since there are a double 7. in the bedroom, it is best to avoid: Earth (Yellow, cream or beige) 3. If earth appears in this room e.g. especially yellow, than, it is best avoided. 4. The best element flow in your should be: Water (Blue, black or grey) and Wood (Green or brown). This is because under the productive cycle of the five elements: Metal -> Water -> Wood 5. T…

Please note that there are three kinds of luck: 1. Heaven Luck or born with 33.33 percent 2. Earth Luck or Feng Shui of the home and/or office 33.33 precent 3. Man or Human luck ; good family bonding etc... 33.33 percent Total marks = 100 percent Why must one rely solely on Heaven Luck alone? Do you know that many don't have fantastic Heaven Luck nor Earth luck but have good human luck factors? Another thing, in our modern society; many people (already) have lots of stress; and why create more "auto-suggestion" and "self-fullfilling prophecy?" Frankly, one day all of us my (disappear from this earth or turned into ashes) so... what is your worry?

These are some considerations: 1. Some "Feng Shui" related issues have more to do with common sense then Feng Shui itself. 2. For example, 2 years ago, I remembered meeting a client who just bought a re-sale HDB flat. 3. We climbed the stairs and he went towards his unit. Apparently, his unit's fully shiny chrome grille gate. 3.1 He had a fright as thought he saw a figure - (himself) and he got a "shock". 4. What you mentioned, is similar. Sometimes, we suddenly see an image "in the home" after opening the door. The image could actually be one's mirror image. 5. Thus, majority of the time; this is one of the main "concern". For some, it is not an issue.

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…

Further to what I had mentioned, avoid using a water feature at sector(s) with #3 and or #4. Do also check the 20 year flying stars if there are any /and or #3 and/or #4.

Hi, In my opinion, this may not be exactly true. What I understand is that although we can `classify' certain music as belonging to more Yang or more Yin, we cannot fully apply it to our real life: 1. We need rest and time for work. At a state of rest or relax, I am personally not sure if some of us like to listen to more vibrant (Yang) or relaxing (Yin) music. This depends on the individual. 2. I believe most of the music are new invention or commercial works and do not represent classical music. Under the short article I wrote at http://www.geomancy.net/fs/music.htm I mentione that Barque music e.g. Vivaldi's Four Seasons etc... when played can relax a person's heartbea…

Dear Kristinna, In general, if you are using the Eight House Theory or East/West Group theory; it is a very general theory to find out your general best direction(s) or a good intangible location. Other than that, if the location is considered inasupicious under the Eight House, the only way is to stay further from the line of inauspcious influence. Other than this, you cannot do much if you continue to `occupy' this location. Other more advanced Feng Shui techniques such as the Flying Star are usually used together. The Flying Star can be used to `trouble-shoot' or fine tune the Feng Shui Audit further. Warmest Regards, Cecil
