For 2: the best is to close the door when not in use. For 1: if the toilet location has bad flying star numbers; that would indirectly be good. Such questions are something like: my earlier example of a person who has 7 grown up family members. He is now driving a saloon car (capacity of 5 persons). How are you going to squeeze the other two family members in that car - I wonder. Go get a Deluxe MPV with a seating capacity of 7 to 8 persons, then.

Dear Anon, In my opinion, this statement is not correct for the following reasons: 1. Under the most common compass school of Feng Shui, there is no mentioned that one cannot do FS e.g. under the Eight House (8 sectors) or Flying Star 24 sectors. Here, there is always directions of reference on SE or NW. 2. Prior to the FS audit, many FS Masters/Practioners are not aware of the direction of a house/office until they visted it. Even if the direction is found to be at NW or SE, house/office audits are done. 3. More importantly, I know a few FS practioners are cautions when it comes to giving advice on a North East house (Devil's Gate) e.g. asking the owners to tilt their d…

Dear Ann, There are two methods of determining the placement of mirrors: 1. The most accurate is based on Flying Star Theory. Here, the house is analysed and the sector where the room (wall) is should not have inauspicious stars. For example if the sector of the room has a #2 Sickness or #5 Misfortune Star, placing a mirror at the location (wall) will double the effect. 2. If one do not want to go further than using such tools, would have to depend on one's personal feelings. If one feels comfortable, then place the mirror. As this is `trial and error' Feng Shui, when one place the mirrors avoid doing other `enhancements'. If it is placed correctly, there is no effect on …

1. Please note that there is no cure under the Eight House or Eight Mansions concept:- http://wiki.geomancy.net/wiki/The_Three-Step-Approach For example, for the Eight house, it is best to spent time at good sector or face a good sector (FULL STOP). 2.1 If you cannot do the above, there is no further cure for it. Eight House concept is usually YES or NO type of senario. and there is no such thing as cure for it! 2.2. Thus is your house direction facing a good direction? YES? NO? 2.3. Is your bedroom in a good sector? YES? NO? 3. Seriously what can be done for the above? Yes or No? If NO, then, if one still wants to apply Feng Shui, then jolly well, look at this co…

These are some of the considerations:- 1. "It depends!" 2. There is the 20 Year Flying Star Feng Shui. Flying Star is about determining where is the facing and sitting directions. Thus, one should get this right, first. 3. In a 20 Year Flying Star Feng Shui; for example from now to 2023; the reigning star is #8. Thus, under the 20 Year Flying Star, in particular; if the water wealth (Water star #8) is located at the balcony (balcony is at the SW); One should not shut off the water supply or relocate this water feature, just because say the year water star is somewhere else. 4. Under the Five Elements concept: a good water feature has all the five elements: http://fountain…

Further to what I had mentioned earlier, I did a SEARCH under this forum for: Romance interpreation And found this old forum message:- Posted in: Discuss :: Free Advice (General Topics) on Friday, March 10, 2000 02:15 AM Dear Anon, The Flying Star has: 1. The Base Star. 2. The Water and Mountain Stars. Glyn correctly pointed out that the Base Number #8 (North East, Weak Earth) is correct to represents Romance. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 2. Under the `81' interpretations: Mountain Star #1 and Water Star #4 which is similar to Mountain Star #4 and Water Star #1 signifies the following:- "Successful sales, become famous,…

1. Generally, the entire plot of land and building is rectangular under Shapes and forms is acceptable. 2. There is a high concentration of Catholic (buildings); Generally such buildings are considered "clean" compared to some temples etc... 3. Currently, the best facing directions within this development is NE or SW facing. There are also NW or SE facing which is not as good. 4. Majority of all developments have good and not so good units. Thus, one can apply Flying Star to futher fine tune the interior of the unit.

Dear Anon, Yes, some practioners consider this a poison arrow especially if it is above the bedroom door. The result is that it will affect the marriage e.g. separation or divorce. Warmest Regards, Cecil

Hi,Cecil Thank for your reply, the edge of the wall is really facing my bed. It is better to shift to the other side , but it will face the stair case. It is all right? On 1/5/2005 7:57:58 AM, Cecil Lee wrote:

Dear Anon, To let you have a better understanding:- 1. Yin and Yang Concept As the bedroom is usually a location (meant more for rest). Here, the room should be MORE Yin than Yang. It depends on other factors also:- 1.1 The direction the bedroom is facing. For example if the bed is at locations that is constantly dark, it can do we slightly more Yang. 1.2 For children, their bedroom can be more Yang i.e. musical instruments, toys etc... 1.3 For those who use the room e.g. partially for study and sleep e.g. in a dormitory, it can be made `more yang' in the day time... e.g. allow light to flow into the room and at night say, close the window curtains. 2. Poison Arrows Here…

Dear Anon, Many years back, I had written on the issue of "long houses". For example, many years back, the long house e.g in Sarawak is pretty unique and quite similar to your case. However, their long house can even be longer than the 120 ft long as you had mentioned. Yes, unfortunately, between the pie and the grid, if it is a long house than the grid method is often preferred over the pie in your case. Thus, no choice, long and thin would be the better way to analyse the home vs the pie which is difficult to apply in such a type of home.

Dear Anon, Anonymous wrote: I do not think of myself as a weak person, however, I have learned that I am a weak Fire. What exactly does this mean? Frankly, a weak person does not mean that person is weakling, nor does a strong person mean you are a strong person. It is just one of the two classification for what element you belong to when you relate yourself to the environment. For example, an element like fire can either be a weak fire or a strong fire. That state basically helps to define what kinds of element is good or bad for you. In turn, once you know this proces, you can easily relate the what careers, what colours, what direction, what people will be consider…

Yes, if we consider the global concept of a weak fire person, then; real estate industry is considered as belonging to the earth element. Another varying view-point is that some may say that an agent's main job scope is into marketing or sales or renting out properties; this belong to the fire element. As fire adds to fire then it is considered acceptable. Of course better job scope is of the wood element as it helps fuel fire. Another critical factor in one's ba zi has the ten deities: which include various factors like how much: earned wealth vs luck wealth and othe factors like how much determination and competitiveness in that chart. Other personal factors like an i…

Dear Anon, In my opinion, no, halogen lamps are not considered bad. ONly that it has a higher concentration of lighting even if it gives off heat. Many Feng Shui practioners believe that lighting whether it is from a light bulb or halogen lamp is still considered light. To many artificial light is another source of beneficial Qi. Furthermore, there is no impact from its shape because it is small. Warmest Regards, Cecil

Dear Anon, Frankly, in my opinion, this has more to do with `safety' than Feng Shui. Usually, one would not expect a broad staircase unless it is a building or a large house where three persons or more can walk side-by-side going up or down the stairs. Imagine if the staircase is sufficient for one or one and a-half person's body width to walk thru. If the plant has extended leaves, I really cannot imagine that one will not brush against the leaves. Looking at it from a light hearted moment, imagine placing catus plants and having a pet e.g. dog or cat or the wind blowing and toppling the catus plant. What happens if a loved one accidently steps on the catcus? And get h…

Further to what I had mentioned, 1. Authentic Feng Shui, Chinese divinity methods and Chinese medicine, food etc.. revolves around the Five elements concept. 2. Earlier, we have seen that Ba Zi makes use of an element and it's strength. E.g. weak wood or strong wood person? There is a total difference between the two. 3. Each day can be classified into strong or weak element. E.g. strong water element. 4. Under this new resource, please go thru the reply to Question 2:- http://www.geomancy.net/resources/art/arowanafish.htm For example, under Shapes and Forms, even the material and the design of a fountain conforms to the Five Elements concept. In some of the replies unde…

There is very little you can do about it unfortunately. However, under the traditional feng shui, it is said that having a Chinese Hulu (bottle gourd) can help to attempt to trap wealth before it leaks out of the home. Also keeping the toilet seat cover close will minimise the wealth leak. These two can only help to reduce the wealth leak. There is unfortunately not much else you …

1. Frankly, as you have correctly asked the question: Does Feng Shui really help? 2. These are some of the considerations:- 2.1. Feng Shui is not a cure all. Thus everything cannot gravitate towards Feng Shui alone. 2.2. Under the Chinese "Holy Trinity" of luck; Feng Shui is just one of the three types of luck:- The three types of luck are:- Heaven Luck - or commonly known as born with Earth Luck - Feng Shui of the home, workplace or even at study Human (Man) Luck - Family relationships, bonding and support structure. 3. As one can see, Earth Luck accounts only for 33.3 percent of the above luck. Thus in an examination, anyone with just 33.3 marks upon 100 percent i…

That is why buying a house that is suitable is the only way you can avoid this problem. As for a wood element person, depending on which sector is your house there is still a house element. For example, North facing is water element. Then if you are a weak Wood, water element will be good. So even if the house id death sector, then it will help to offset some of the inauspicio…
