General Help

Dear Hoa, Yes, unfortunately, the traditonal Chinese coffin's cover is similar shape i.e. semi-ciruclar when we look at it from the head (front to back) view.

In my opinion, it depends on whether a person is a strong or weak element. A person who has a strong element; e.g. strong water, strong wood, strong earth etc.. can utilise the 'destructive' cycle in your own words "for coloring". For example: a strong earth person: wood element (green or brown) can be used to destroy earth to create what is called "Power and Authority" for that person. And as a strong earth person's wealth element is Water.

Dear Vijay, Yes, it is not Feng Shui but rather Pillars of Destiny that can help one to draw a Company Logo or the visiting card. For example, if you are a weak wood, having a logo in blue, with wavy lines helps to strengthen your weak self with water, or using a logo in yellow or brown, and with a square shape does help you increase your wealth deities.

Dear Sandi, 1. Based on what you had mentioned, you should not have a problem in the situation where although the front and back door are directly opposite each other. As, there is a wall between the two front and back door. 2. In Feng Shui, it is advisable not to be under a sloping roof. However, this is much better than directly under (sitting) under a beam. The higher the ceiling the better. Warmest Regards, Cecil

Dear Anon, Anonymous wrote: My greetings for 2007 to you and all. Are there any taoist amulets or blessed papers you have one can print for this year? thanks Feng Shui is not really a religion. True Feng Shui is all about best colour scheme, best placement, most suitable house to create a harmonious environment etc. No charms or religion or worshipping are involved. True feng shui also do not rely on any feng shui items (ie 3 legged wealth toad etc). Since you are looking or taoist related items, you would be better off consultinga taoist priest. They will be in a better position to provide you with what you are looking for. Hope that that helps. Warmest Regards Robe…

1. Feng Shui is a holistic approach. Andit is prematureto offer any solutionwithout investigative work done. 2. Might as well,use the "Flip a coin" method: Heads orTails senario.

Look how the five elements are balanced in your life and in your home, perhaps do the adjust water element... or bring in more earth.

If you are overseas for practical reasons: Option 1: Monitor your situation and/or Option 2: Get professional Classical Feng Shui Master as (we) do have some solutions for such things especially for a home with a VOID line.

Hi, I believe this is more a modern `invention' and really `too significant' for true authentic Feng Shui practise. I believe, it is a commonsense approach to have the light behind you. Perhaps, if our eye sight get bad because of such advise, can we claim from the author who mentioned this? In my opinion, if some of the Past or Dead Feng Shui Masters got to hear of this, they may either have a good laugh about this or truly shake their head or `cry in despair' at how modern people practise " Feng Shui ".

Dear Sunny, Please see below:- Based on your description, it looks like a poison arrow ie. especially if it slices through the main entrance door. I posted a message: What is the `Triangle Effect?' under the conference: Photo Tours of Interest. For you to have a better understanding of the situation. This should not be an issue in the living room. Normally, it should be placed closer to one side of the wall rather than placed in the centre of the living room. Warmest Regards, Cecil

Respected Sir, Thank you for your guidance on the issue of my flat. I sincerely apologize for the following: 1) My DOB which is 25.08.1968. 2) Secondly for the purpose of 8 rod metal windchime in the northeast window. I read in one of the FENG SHUI books locally in Mumbai (India) that hanging a 8 rod metal windchime in THE NORTHEAST CORNER OF THE HOUSE/LIVING ROOM INVITES INFLUENTIAL PEOPLE. I will be in touch with you as for more queries on my family members.

I forgot the attachment, here goes...

1. The Eight House (Eight Mansions) concept is "fixed". For example, as you had mentioned, if north is your favourable direction, then most likely you are an East group person i.e. your "overall" good or acceptable directions are " North, South, East and South East". 2. While Flying Star, as you had mentioned, is based on "star numbers" and their combined significance. 3. There are situations where a room can be surrounded by bad stars. Some rooms or some homes depending on the flying star numbers may even be affected by truly bad stars such as #5 #9 #5. If so, it is very difficult to disarm such stars. While rooms with #2 and #9 could most likely generallybe neutralis…

In general, based on your broad statement; so far, a creek att the "back" can be a concern; depending how the house is built. I have not looked at your other statements; just this one.

These are some of the considerations:- 1. Based on Shapes and Forms Feng Shui, your bed layout is in-line with the shape of the interior in relation to the walls, bed-head area; windows and main door. Thus this is generally a good layout plan. 2. At 5th storeys high there is no major concern of sha qi from the physical point of view. At ground floor; the concern has more to do with "wandering vehicles" i.e. vehicles that could "slam" into the buidling e.g. road accident or high speed out of control vehicles. 3. Thus, strictly from the Shapes and Forms Feng Shui, a gentle curved window seems "majestic" and makes the entire home bright from both sides i.e. large facing d…

Hi Robert Lee Appreciated with all your advise and your kindness respond.Have a questionfrom what your advice if there is a tall building cut thru into the home it's consider a sha qi. Yes, there is a building facing each of the room.How do we fix it.2) If there is a TV antena at the roof top (above 12th floor)of the buildingfacing our bedroom (9th floor)do that mean also the sha qi. If so, how do we fixit. By placing curtain or is there other option. Thank you With warmest regards Sophia Chia

Dear Anon, In my opinion, so far, I have yet come across a case or problem related to `ceiling fan(s)'. Therefore, for me, I do not consider it a problem / threat or a real issue. Warmest Regards, Cecil

These are some considerations: 1. From a symbolism point of view; many geomancers would often say that it is considered inauspicious to have "broken glass". 2. A few years ago, a client of mine nearly wanted to install a creative piece of two pieces of acrylic with broken glass sandwiched in-between. But, as a Chinese, on her own, she felt uncomfortable having such a piece in her home. 3. Under symbolism and a belief or conception, thus, it is considered inauspicious. 4. From a common sense approach, some again feel unease if broken glass is lying around.. for both humans especially children and pets like dogs who might just swallow them... I know this is not "possible" g…

Dear Sandra, There are two issues here: 1. A mirror facing a window. 2. Whether the wall or the location around the wall is auspicious or inauspicous. Usually, it is best not to have a mirror facing a window. But this depends on how far away the mirror is. The rationale behind this is that if this is the frontage of your house, it is best to allow natural lighting flow into the house. If there are poison arrows outside the house, it would most likely reflect into the house onto the mirror and cause `twice' the problem as a mirror image has been created within the house. If it happens to be an inauspicious sector under Flying Star analysis, you will bounce back twice the `…
