Dear Soli, Often, we can look at it from three perspectives: 1. Yin and Yang concept 2. How thick skin are you? 3. Human or Man Luck 1. Yin and Yang concept Often, because a plant is growing, it is considered as `more yang' than yin. And since, a bedroom is meant more for sleep (yin or rest); then, it is preferred not to have a live plant in the bedroom. 2. How thick skin are you? Looking at the above: i.e. placing a plant in the bedroom; some of us have no issue living in a `jungle' with lots of plants or trees. While others are very sensitive. Therefore, it does not automatically mean that we must never have plants in the bedroom. It depends: On how sensitive one is or …

My question, if my house was built in period 7,what flying star chart should I follow, period 7 or period 8? Right now I have made some cures in my home but I followed the flying star chart of 2005. Am I right? Please give me some advice on what to do? Thank you. In order to determine if your home is still a period 7 or period 8, you will need to confirm whether there are any major renovations done in 2004/2005. You see a house does not change to the new period automatically unless you make enough chan…

Initially I liked it as it makes to look your room big. Now we feel too much pressure on our head.I heard one option is to put flute, but the ceiling is too high for this.Is there any other option to cure. The best way is to have a false ceiling which will cover the beam entirely. The flute is the next best solution.

1. Most of the time, it is not recommended to place a water feature in a bedroom. If you meant "my room" as the bedroom. Quote: Mark Anthony L.

Dear Judy, 1. Poison arrows are `objects' that point towards e.g. the main entrance of the house or through a window into the house. For example, it can be a corner of another house pointing into the house `like' an arrrow' head. Alternatively it can be a lamp post which if one visualises, slicing (like a knife) cutting thru the main entrance door. 2. In a room, poison arrows usually are sharp corners pointed towards e.g. the bed. 3. Overhead beams are considered `Sha Qi' and not poison arrow as it is not aimed at the person or bed but rather it `weighs down' or seem to put on a "pressure" downwards. 4. Position of beds e.g. placing it against a wall for solid support or …

Dear Anon, Thanks for bring this up. Water plays an important part in Feng Shui:- 1. In the past, many buildings are built on the Ming Tang concept i.e. a pool (not stagnant) at the frontage of the building. It is a semi-circular shaped, with the the semi-circle radiating away from the frontage of the building. 2. Water is an excellent choice because with water position, it implies that there is clear space. This works well with the Four Symbolic Animals concept where the frontage of the house should have clear space or like a `bird' flying freely in-front. 3. Water is equally used in Feng Shui e.g. fountains are said to be good Qi enhancers or it creats beneficial Qi. Bu…

Of course if you can hide those piping and cables it will definately look nicer for an office. But if you can't then there isn't much you can do. Probably the main concern here is that piping might leak and thus if you have any electrical equipment/important documentsit might get damaged when it leaks. So you just need to be extra careful about placing important documents etc. Also, piping might also have similiar properties like a beam over your head which is like a poison arrow if you a…

1. In general, it is acceptable to have a SMALL fish tank in the kitchen. 2. However, try to avoid the following:- 2.1. If the kitchen is at the North compass direction of the home; then it is best not to place the fish tank. 2.2. Try not to place the small fish tank directly opposite (facing) the stove. 2.3. Try to keep at least 1 feet distance between the small fish tank and the stove. Quote: Hi there! Would like to know if having a small fish tank in the kitchen is okay?

This question has been asked many times. Basically, you should use the give and take method. For breadwinner (yourself), ensure that the house facing is suitable to you so that you enjoy luck from the house facing. For the rest of the family member, you should make sure the rooms are suitable for them to stay in. As they will be getting the luck more from the bedroom.

1. Yes, what you had mentioned is true! Even today - especially the Chinese are not immune to this! Many share the same fate with regards to filia piety issues! 2. It is a "pity" that I feel that for some of us, if we could reverse the time, may consider having a large family. Here, there is a "higher" probability that one not only "hope" for at least one or some children - to look after us or we could still stay on our own but may not worry as much with day to day finances as there is a higher chance with so many children! 3. In fact, I have seen more cases of daughters providing for or being closer to their parents then sons! As you had mentioned.. most likely cannot…

1. In my opinion, toilet is better at North with MS2 WS5 and base 4. However, where possible, the toilet should share an external wall. 2. In addition, the layout of the toilet / toilet doorin relation to say the master bedroom layout should be considered. 2.1 For example, if based on shapes and forms (and if say having a toilet at SW would mean that one external wall is shared) and if at North; 2.2 there is or may not be an extra shared wall; then in such a situation or as you mentioned toilet door facing the side of the bed; the one not facing the side of the bed may be a better choice. 3. It is nice-to avoid toilet door facing the side of the bed. But if really no ch…

These are some considerations: 1. As you had mentioned, the oak tree is not in your property. 2. However, it becomes a threat only when e.g. standing inside the home (at an opening) e.g. such as an open window and /or main door and if one can see the trunk of the oak tree slicing towards such openings then this is considered as a poison arrow or sha qi. Thus this is considered as a threat. 3. The concept that if it cannot be seen, it no longer becomes a threat applies. Thus simple things like installing a blind or a day curtain may help to "blur" out the offending "object". 4. One of the "secret" weapons in Feng Shui are birds chirping around. Thus, some trees help to at…

Dear Anon, Apologise, can you elaborate further what you mean by below the center line. In addition, can you elaborate not just the bedroom but what is at the `centrepoint' of the house (if I get u correctly). Warmest Regards, Cecil
