Dear Anon, This is a very good question. Generally, in my opinion, this is very common in the West. Especially, if there is a "lovely" bay-window just behind the bed-head. But locally in Singapore, this is often not a good idea for the following reasons. And these reasons are often "common-sense". In Singapore, majority of the homes are apartments (flats) or high-rise and it is often not too good an idea to have the bed-head against the window:- 1. Unfriendly neighbours! There are occassions where inconsiderate neighbours throw out cigarette butts and sometimes it may fall down into an open window. And if are beds are close to or next to the window, there can be a p…

Didn't really thought much about it until recently. But looking back at these 4 months I realised that my projects so far had been chocked full of obstacles and barriers. All of the projects, even the smallest ones, had a problem or another. Basically nothing went smooth and I don't know why. I've become more aware of the pillar in these few weeks and I am beginning to believe that all my obstacles at work were in some way due to the bad feng shui created by the pillar. It is likely the corner from the square pillar on the…

Hi Master, thanks for your reply. If let's say i re-paint the whole house (i intend to paint to white, currently is light green), will Fengshui be affected by the painting of house? And the room that ta shui is stting that year, can i paint too? Must i see the dates for the painting of house? Thanks and sorry for the long questions.

Dear Diane, Wow! Actually, it is not so simple as it seems. As, firstly the external environment of the home, also needs to be considered such as any open drains or canal outside, passing thru the home and other external factors. In addition, it is quite difficult to understand the "T" or is it proprotionate etc.. Warmest Regards, Cecil Quote: Diane Price wrote: Could you please advise me on the purchase of a T shaped home?

Dear Anon, There are two ways at looking into this:- 1. Human Luck Factor Some of us enjoy putting on jewellry or wear some jewellry. And perhaps, make them feel good or even confident of one-self. Drawing a parallel, it is akin to buying somedecorative itemsfor the home. Imagine, a home can orlook very dull without some form of decoration. 2. Under the Five Elements Concept Reference: http://www.geomancy.net/resources/theories/fs-5element.htm Under the Five Elements concept, if we take a careful look at the "destructive" cycle; one can see the "constant" Metal "destroys" Wood or Water "destroys" Fire or Wood "destroys"Earth or Fire "destroys" Metal or Earth "de…

Dear K Chin, K Chin wrote: Since the shape of objects affect the luck, health and wealth of a person or apartment, do the shape and the color of a sofa have any effect on luck orhealth ? In general, you have to always rank what is important. ie. If in a room, then the colour of the room and the key furniture colours will affect the overall feng shui of the room. The other smaller objects will play only a smaller role. Therefore, generally the colour of the sofa will play the greatest influence for the element of the sofa, followed by the material and the shape of the sofa.

Dear Anon, Anonymous wrote: I dont have much idea of Feng shui... But my husband belives & follows it. I was stucked up at one thing whether Indoor cactus are good or bad? He says it brings bad fortune. Is it true? Plants in general is good. Especially those with flowers. Plants that have torns or sharp branches can indirectly create posion arrows (sha qi). Therefore, like your husband said, it is not as good simply because the it creates lots of torns. What you want in a home is harmony rather than conflicts. Therefore, for this reason it is not so good especially if it is the only plant around. Hope that helps. Warmest Regards Robert Lee GEOMANCY.NET - Center …

Dear Master Lee, Thank you again for your unending advice... I would like to thank you for the clarification regarding my house period. Now i'll be able to analyze thecharted numbers in every sector of my house. My house (as you have clarified) is in period 7 andsits on N2 and faces S2 172.5degress to 187.5degress. In NW sector is 6m, 8w, 4t and 9a. base onwhat i've readthe 8w is wealth number and it is the current/rulingnumber. Withthe numbers combination my analysis is this:6metal is the mountain and 8earth is the water. 4wood is the time and9fire is the annual. The 8w is being weaken by the 6m star. The inaspicious 4t star also burdens the 8w star whichmay cause inju…

Thank you so much for your reply Cecil. I wanted to get a clear answer because the front door to a property is one of the most important aspects in feng-shui, and so I now assume that whenver I see a quote saying NEVER build a double door for a main entrance, that is pure nonsense. Thanks again.

Dear Leonor, In my opinion, since this house was built in the early 1990's usually, it should be a Period 7 chart unless, there were (especially) major renovations done on or after 2004. Warmest Regards, Cecil Norman Leonor wrote: I would like to know what period should i use to make the lu shou chart for the house we are renting.The washousebuilt sometime in the early 1990's, and that should beperiod 7, but we just moved here in 2005 last yearthe month of May and this would be period 8. I read an article saying that the period you should use is the time when you moved to your new home not the time the house was built. I so confused... Help me please.

Dear Anon, Anonymous wrote: Dear Master, I live in a N1, Ren home 348deg. Now to find the 24 mountain direction do I use the 348 deg as my facing directon or 0 deg from the center point of the home for my reference point ? In general, you take the facing direction of your home. ie I presume you have already considered that:- 1. Apartments (2nd-7th level), you take the main door direction (ie standing at the main door looking outwards). 2 Apartments (8th level and up), you take the living room/balcony direction (ie standing in your living room looking outwards). 3. Landed property, you take the frontage of your building. So say if yours is the landed property and you…

Dear Master Cecil, Thank you very much for your advice. I have not much problem getting the "center point" of an apartment. Next, I would like to consult you as how to divide a flat into 3x3 grid. Wondering if there is any "formula" to draw the grid. Again, for rectangular flat, it would be quiet straight forward to divide it into 3x3 grid i.e. we will get 9 squares. For diamond shape flat, there are many posibilities. Attached are the sample. And each possibilty will have different "result" because the position of each square will be different. Please advise as what are the things that we should bring into consideration when we divide a flat into 3x3 grid. …

Example is that I have "Luck againts me" during the best time of my life period in which I have been lucky in wealth, fame, and almost everything. I consulted your free report to find out what happened to my luck. These times I am wondering what happenned to my luck, but it seem in your report I am approaching my luck in 10 years. If that is so I want to know why is like that, and if so how can I enhance my luck these times (on this period and on the coming period) better. Thanks any advice and expalanation …

Dear Master Robert Lee Yes it did help a lot. Thank you so muchfor your help and advice. More power to you good and generous people. Norman

Dear Sophia, Symbolically under Feng Shui, it is good like you mention to rectify such "physical" leaks in the shop. Usually, if you have rented your shop, you should try to seek redress from your leassor. Since the shop is still new, try to check out who is the developer as often such building defects is covered by the developer. Warmest Regards, Cecil
