General Help

1. More importantly, usually what is mentioned in this forum is based on general comments or specific to a home and it's environment. And not all homes can be "slotted" into either abony or ivory type of situation. 2. Thus "IT DEPENDS!". 3. Usually, the home that is "configured" rebuilt "last" would hopefully gain a better advantage. 4. http://www.geomancy.net/products/po-hunting/po-hunting-faq.htm Under this link, please check-out CASE STUDY 1 - The Meyer Place Condominium. Here, in this example, the bungalow, "below" happens to have two roofs. And this apartment at 4th storey has a balcony that looks like two hands in a "receive" position. 5. For most of the arti…

Dear Shona, 1. It is good to check up (if you can - some history of the house). For example, try to enquire who previously lived in this house etc... In effect, try to find out more... 2. Depending on your level of participation or non-participation on the application of Feng Shui, you can:- 2.1 Apply Shapes and Form Feng Shui Techniques to do an environmental scanning of the site. And application of Shapes and Form to your home. When you mentioned that there are "lots of" poison arrows: 2.2 You should stand at the front entrance and at each window and look out of the house. Here, a poison arrow only becomes a threat when it is `aimed' thru the main entrance or the windo…

1. In my opinion, it is at least good to hear that you are "starting" a "new" life. 2. However, whenever possible, I do hope that you do not take too much of the Chinese zodiac signs "too seriously". As I feel that too much reference, digestion of e.g. the characteristics of say a dragon, snake etc.. will make us -to-have auto-suggestion. 3. Frankly, one can never tell that the next "snake" one meets will truly be a "snake!" Maybe there is too much coincidence in your past experience in dealing with people. And broadly, any one of us can fit into easily into any of the 12 Chinese zodiac signs. 4. Even in modern Singapore, many people meet each other, be it couples, bus…

1. Your question reminds me of the program: Mind your language. Reference: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mind_Your_Language 1.1 In fact, there is a rerun on fhis hilarious show now on one of the Starhub channel. 1.2 One should not, like the characters of the show equate it literally to fixing broken things. You wrote: "Do we need a master to evaluate the leaks or one can do it himself." 2. Of course, if everthing does not make sense to that person, then you may have to seek help. Otherwise, others have Do It Yourself (D.I.Y.)

Further to what I mentioned, Oops! I forgot: I strongly believe many house-husbands will not be so forgiving as all the great mums around! Most like, he could "accidentally, let loose these dogs, rabbits and other pets. And if the house-dad's do get too angry, these dogs may end up being shipped to Beijing, China to be served as dog meat, rabbit meat etc...! Frankly, in my opinion, if one is starting to rear fish, then, it is best not to go for three tanks at one go. Try out one and go from there, Warmest Regards, Cecil

1. To be honest, it is no value to take a compass direction and not use it. The Compass School Feng Shui, is not only about taking a general reading and (full stop). 2. To enhance a sector, or neutralise a sector or problem; the Compass School Feng Shui (especially Flying Star) has both the TOOLs as well as the means to understand each sector. 3. Under Shapes and Forms Feng Shui, a tree trunk should preferably not "slice" thru the main entrance door or window of our home. If it slices the neighbour's -- not our concern... (This is still a poison arrow or sha qi towards that neighbour - not our home). Nancy W. wrote: I have used the compass direction to determine that…

1.Check to see if it is feasible for the "back" to enjoy goodfrontage? Yes/No?For example,can activity area be at the back. Or it happens to be the kitchen, the linen area, laundry etc..And/or is the Flying Star qi there good to be the facing. 2. Ifyou had explored the back area and found it unsuitable, then, you may have to depend on the frontage. 3. If the garage is fully closed area;and if the qi coming from the frontage is suppose to be good, then,Yes, the qi can bewasted, here. 4. Alternatively, if youstill have frontage such as windows or asecond floor, thentry toopen the windows at this frontage areaas much as possible, if you do not wish to renovate your garage…

Dear Chuei May, Ideally, in the first place, one should avoid having sharp edges facing a bed. "One concept is that if one cannot see it it no longer becomes a threat applies." I really cannot provide a cure for this as it is very difficult to `hide' a corner. Warmest Regards, Cecil

Frankly, the reason, why I wanted to see a photo is to see whether is there really a need for a bagua mirror.

Dear Anon, Grateful if you can describe in greater detail as I still not sure what u mean i.e. do you mean that as you enter the main door, there are two walls on each side like a larger main door within the house? Thanks. Warmest Regards, Cecil

Dear Linda, Thank you for your words of encouragement:) You should exclude the garage if you are doing a Feng Shui assessement using the Compass School theories such as Flying Star and Eight House which subdivides the various sectors. If you have the time to upload a sketch of your house and indicate the location of the garage, I can help you find the centrepoint of the house. If the file is small, e.g. in .jpg (Jpeg format) you can attach it to this conference or for a larger file, attach it to the conference: "Conference for Attaching Layout". In Feng Shui, under the Compass School, the Flying star theory has two modules: 1. The common Flying Star Chart ana…

Dear Anon, In my opinion, your cornice do not pose poison arrow as it is usually made of gpysum board. The height from the ceiling to the ground is quite a distance away. They are multiple (3) and long as opposed to a pointed edge. I personally feel that there is no issue in the type of cornice mentioned. Although the preference is for a simpler design. Warmest Regards, Cecil

Dear Anon, This depends on a person's gender: Male or Female 2. If the person is a Male:- Then the House of Conception is to relate him and his relationship with his wife or spouse. 2. If the person is a Female:- The House of Conception relates to her child. Therefore, both `statements' are correct. It depends on either a person is Male or Female. Hope that helps. Warmest Regards, Cecil

Dear Madan, Grateful if you can elaborate further on: 1. Please check what is the inauspicious intangible force at the bedroom. 2. Is the room close to two sectors e.g. such as North and NE or North and NW or is it only located at the North. 3. Please take note that under the Eight House Theory, one should be more concern if one spents most of the time at the location. Rather than if the location is an inauspicious sector. For example, if it is the disaster location and you are sleeping away from it and closer to a less inauspicious sector or an auspicious sector. This is ok. The Eight House works mostly on the priciple that it has to be `activated' by the individual or …

Dear HK Don, hk don wrote: For applying a cure on a three storey terrance house for a given sector (say NW), do we need to put the samecure on every floor or just the ground floor or top floor? Pls advise. Thanks Generally, the best way is to always use colour scheme to balance up the room and minimise the use of cures. This is the most efficient and effective way. However, where there is no other option, then a cure at the right sector may be necessary. Depending on the severity, if really very unbalanced, then having a cure on different level is ok. Else, just fix up the more important rooms (ie bedrom, living room, main door etc).…

Note: This message is in reference to the following: Topic: Photo Tours of Interest (with Picture attachments) Subject: " House at Junction of Main Road - with bad sha qi " Dear Anon, Thanks for your observations: 1. You are correct to say that electric lamp can be used to light up the `corner' for this effect. 2. In my opinion, although one can place electric lamps but one cannot place many or it is not practical to place many lamps on the wall without making it look more light Christmas lightning. The earthen lamps are `symbolic' to "trap" the sha qi as many are used rather than spacing out the electric lamps. In `symbolism' the earthen lamps represent light even if th…

The scope of Chinese Metaphyics is based on the holy trinity of luck:- a. Born with (ba zi) The ba zi or commonly known as Four Pillars or Pillars of destiny has its own tools which include things like : when is your romance period (and how good or how bad it is), your personal compatiblity, your luck and destiny. b. Feng Shui (home & office) In general, it affects your general wealth luck and sometimes, romance luck can be looked at and fine tuned. For example, certain homes have bad Shapes and Forms that can affect romance luck. While applying Flying star can detect and help to properly cure bad stars like #3 (romance, lawsuits, entanglements etc..). c. Human o…

Thanks! Let me read up on the links you posted. Hopefully that will make it a little clear to me. jaz

Dear Anon, 1. This is a subjective question. I believe if you `throw' this question into the newsgroup, you will get all sorts of response. 2. Overall, the original aim of Feng Shui is to enhance beneificial Qi and neutralise Sha Qi. 3. Many Western Feng Shui practioners (especially those that are not Traditional Feng Shui) will love your question. These practioners will always emphasise on "space clearing" or clearing of clutter. 4. In my opinion, many who are not exposed to so many Traditional Feng Shui and related subjects naturally would place space clearing on their top most agenda. 5. Aside from Feng Shui `aspects', I believe there were others in the field of Manage…

1. This is just an advice - - on a "fixture". 2. Within reasons: "try to be a "good" or reasonable MIL. And hope that your DIL does the same. Quote: Doris W. wrote: Hello!
