Dear Anon, Thanks for this interesting question: 1. I remembered reading quite sometime back one of Evelyn Lip's book on Geomancy (Feng Shui). (By the way, for those who are not aware, Evelyn Lip is an English author of several Feng Shui and Chinese cultural books. She is a trained architect and has a PHD. Her books are considered academically correct and is useful for those who do research for their school projects.) In the above book, she mentioned that when she was a young architect, she had a `culture shock' when she was asked to design a house. After the architectural plan was submitted to the house owner; she was asked to alter the design for the owner. During this…

Can anyone tell me if there's any book or directory with list of chinese characters and the number of strokes? In the chinese name analysis, we use the traditional name stroke rather than the simplified name stroke. So if the character you are using is simplified, you need to first check if there is a traditional form. Then use the traditional form. The reference of name stroke is available as a reference in some of the chinese name books.Different chinese name books will give you different reference chart. Alternative, if you have a Kang Xi Traditional dict…

Dear Anon, Frankly, there are many interpretations of kitchen in the "wrong" sector. Under Traditional Feng Shui, the major concern is the Kitchen and in particularly the stove at NW sector. NW is suppose to be the Heaven's gate. And under Traditional Feng Shui, it also reflects the head of the household. And when a stove is located at NW, then it is commonly called "fire-at-heaven's" gate. However, some modern Feng Shui practitioners call the SW sector the romance sector. I believe, this is what you are concerned with. As for SW = romance sector, this is usually not a key issue under Traditional Feng Shui practitioners. As mentioned, this is considered more of a "mode…

As a fresh graduate, I also have not much luck in my career, even though I did quite well in school. What can I do to improve things? Generally, there are a few wealth sectors. This was based on your eight house which means that if your house can face SE or have your bedroom in SE sector then you will benefit from such house giving you additional wealth luck fro…

Dear Chua Swee Heng, chua swee heng wrote: I am a strong yang earth, I just want to know which are the industry (career) is most suitable for me.

This is a netural colour that helps to balance the room. Double star behind simply means that there is a double current prosperity star at the …

Dear Anon, Usually from the frontage of the house, both sides (left and right) should be balanced. So far, I seldom have ever come across a house where (from the frontage) it looks unbalanced at either side unless it is a large building. If so, this should not be a factor. It is not correct to say that the tiger side gets `stronger' than the dragon side. The only factor is that it is ideal condition if the dragon and tiger embrance i.e. Dragon is usually taller and tiger shorter. It can be a hill or landmark (true dragon /tiger) or a false dragon or tiger such such a road etc... Usually, the shape and form of a building should be "whole" and not of odd shape especially i…

Dear Anon, To be honest, if it cannot be physically moved, not much one can do. Under the commonsense approach to Feng Shui, just make sure that usually the sewerage pipe (which is located in the kitchen and hopefully not directly above the stove) is in good repair. The commonsense, here is that should such a pipe burst, the kitchen area, items may be contamined with bateria such as e-coli and others.

1. So sorry, is there any specific history we do not know about this bus number 14? 2. If there is no "unfortunate history", then in my opinion, there should not be a major concern in taking this bus all the time.

Dear Val, Understand that there will be a confusion. In fact, quite recently, there is an earlier forum message seeking clarification of Gua 5 (Kua 5). Please do a SEARCH for the above. The rationale is because when the calculation "hits" Gua 5, it is re-directed to the correct Gua / Kua based on male or female. By-the-way (BTW), therefore " Gua 5 " is actually the centre Gua. And since there are only eight sectors, there is no such thing as an actual centre Gua / Kua 5. Please go to the earlier message and you can find out more. Warmest Regards, Cecil Much

Dear Anon, Before, I go into the question, just to let you know that you do need to post a few messages in the forum. As this forum is moderated to ensure 100 percent `flame free', your message will appear on the forum once it is reviewed. The rationale is because at the last count there are at least 7,000 users listening in to the forum and we cannot afford to have a inconsiderate flamer or spammer on this forum. To answer your question: 1. Under the Eight House Theory, if the deathline falls on the main entrance door, this is considered the most " unsuitable " house for the `breadwinner'. 2. Other considerations under the Eight House Theory is that under condition 1, …

These are some considerations:- 1. Just imagine humans are not exactly homogeneous! 2. In the past, I mentioned: some of us can sleep like a pig; with mirrors all over our bedroom; but some feel very uncomfortable! 3. One of my main examples was: that in some Feng Shui books; it states that when we sleep; it is said that our spirit wakes up and if there is a mirror; it see's itself in the mirror and goes into shock! 4. I had also mentioned; what happened if the spirit is more extrovert? It likes to see itself in the mirror; to check if the hair is not in a mess. If so, the spirit would want to comb hair before flying off to meet one's friend. 5. Again it is like some of u…

Dear Anon, Anonymous wrote: Hi Master Cecil I have a one big rectangular mirror placed in my dining room. Under feng shui is it gd to place it? Generally, mirrors under feng shui can bounce double the good or bad luck depending on where it is placed. The more appropriate is to avoid:- 1. Placing mirror where it bounces the Qi out of the houses. For example if you open a door and immediately see a mirror, any good qi that is trying to enter into the house, may be bounced right out of the house. 2. Mirror must either be a single piece or 3 pieces. Never double, as when you view it is like you are being divided. Which can signify divorce. 3. Mirrors in bathrooms is or i…

Frankly, this is not the best way to both convey and seek advice on such matters.

In my opinion, the most common colour for a home ceiling is white. There are also trends: for example; around ten years ago; many new developments especially condominium units use barley white for both the interior walls and even the ceilings. There are homes that uses wooden beams and planks especially, those per-war homes in Singapore. Since these are natural wood; they are often brown or wood tone colour. So far hardly ever come across ceiling in grey especially for homes. Some business establishment does use such colours. The adage is if not sure; don't use it applies.

1. Feng Shui is not about numbers. Except under the Compass School; Flying Star and vertical Feng Shui; where each level is considered to have different qi influence. 2. Thus if your is a landed property, there is no specific theory or concept associated with Feng Shui on house numbers. 3. What you mentioned comes under another complete area: Numerology. And numerology, can have many origins: Chinese: personal lucky kua or Gua number etc..., Indian astrology and even Western astrology and many many forumlas. 4. Since there can be many formulas; it is common sense that there will also be different "answers". 5. Since your question is 50/50 question: Good or Bad, it is equ…

Thank you very much for your advice, Cecil!!

I do personally feel that it is not advisable. A bedroom should be quiet for good night rest. That is why bedroom is usually classified as Yin. With activities from fishes swiming or the light in the aquarium all these creates more yang. So not really good for bedroom. The more scientific reason would be the water in the fish tank tends to have a certain type of fishy smell, plus depending on the fish some fish/water featuremay make some no…

Dear Chloee, 1. Generally, what this means is that the house may not be that suitable to you and your boyfriend. Under the Eight House concept, there is really not much one can do here but to understand Para 1. 2. Other considerations are: 2.1 Hopefully, this house has excellent or good Shapes and Forms. Usually, if a house has a quantum leap in Feng Shui such as mentioned under Para 2.1; although the house may not be that suitable to the owners, it can still bring great wealth, harmony especially if the Shapes and Forms is excellent. 2.2 The other method is to check on the birth chart of the house such as using Flying Star. Some of us, may not want to dwell deeper using …
