Frankly, in my opinion, one needs more than that to really change to another Period. Thus, I feel that it is not sufficient.

Dear Melanie, In my opinion, there is really not much one can do in such a situation. Usually, (but may not be feasible) in your case is the use of false ceiling or a poster bed with cloth covers over the top of the bed. Since this option may not be available, hanging a crystal, may make one `feel good' but thats all it can do. In traditional FS, besides this situation, one uses e.g. the Flying Star to analyse and if there are any imbalances, neutralise it to lessen any effects in the sector.

Further to what I had mentioned, a more accurate description of this concept are "These people are Interior Decorators who only come in to advise after the home has been renovated. And, often wants us to depart with our hard earned money on some useless objects. With the hope that their clients will feel nice after being conned by them."

Dear Anon, 1. In my most recent posting, I elaborated on the Holy Trinity of Luck (Geomancy Luck). 2. The single most abused thing in Geomancy today has to do with a marketing ploy for us to purchase "stuffs". 3. If we analyse carefully, this area or the sale of products comes under Human or man luck. 4. The reason why products are touted today is that Geomancers will try to squeeze out as much as they can out of our (hard earned) money to "sell" or "promote" products. 5.Thus, many of us who had visitedFeng Shui sites before will come to expect that site has a products page with all sorts of products for sale. 6. Actually, such products costs very little to produce.…

Dear Maria and all users, I would sincerely like to point out the `dangers' of Fast Food Feng Shui. I am glad that you asked the question. If one does not know the answer, it is best to check first before `implementing' self-help Feng Shui cures. As I recall, there was this Doctor, who bought books on Feng Shui. He went out to buy a foutain, started to (I believe) read chapter by chapter. At each chapter or what he thought were his element e.g. based on the year of his birth, he found that e.g. he was a Fire element person. He started to paint the main gate with a colour that he though would `enhance' him. Later on, when he used the traditional Pillars of Destiny which an…

Dear Donna, As `keeping' money can be diverse, you can first look at your home to neutralise imbalances based on the new compass readings first. And check if there are any mountain stars that can be activated. (Water stars can also be activated depending on the stars at the specific locations, usually in the living room, this has to be looked at further). In addition, see how suitable you are to your home e.g. by using the Eight House Theory. Further fine tuning can be done with the help of Pillars, if needed. Warmest Regards, Cecil

Dear Greg, A warm welcome to you:) Currently, the reason why it is considered inauspicious to have a bedroom above a kitchen is more to do with `safety' than Feng Shui. The `worry' is that there is a remote chance of the kitchen catching fire as opposed to other locations. As fire `moves' upwards, most likely, the first room to be affected is the one above it. Other than the above reasoning, it is thus considered of `secondary' importance in Feng Shui. We should continue to find out the rationale for a specific reason i.e. auspicious or inauspicious as many a times, Feng Shui is based on commonsense:) More serious theories, such as Shapes and Forms and Flying Star are use…

Dear Carina, Where possible, place plants especially on both sides of the balcony. If the plants flower this would be `great.' For cactus, you can still place them in the balcony. Although it has been frequently mentioned that it is not auspicious to do so. Do so, if you really liked them else, where possible (in my opinion) try not to `use' them if you can. For a balcony, so long as it is within the house, it can be considered in the living area especially if you have sliding doors and immediately get to see it. Frankly, placing cactus is quite a subjective issue. For some people who are not aware of Feng Shui, in my opinion, so far, I do not see any ill effects on them…

Dear Gi Soh, Gi Soh wrote: I am looking at a condo unit which is facing west and a summit. Feng Shui wise is it ok ? Generally, all west facing homes will faceafternoon sun which can make the unit warm every day. This in itself is a potential problem as if a person feels hot, the likelyhood of getting angry or even hard to focus. So even for those West group person, it is still not so advisable to choose a west facing house unless it is somehow shaded. As for facing a summit (of a hill?), if so whether or not it is good depends on where is the mountain star is located from the flying star analysis. You see a house will benefit from the facing (clear space) and moutain s…

Hi Master, With regards to Q2, if the house is ?L? shaped with extended NW sector. In that case, will it means NW be strong in metal, then? If yes, even if the NW sector has #2 & #5 plus base star #9, will it be neutralized or still the 6-coins metal is needed? Please advise & thank you. Tim

Dear Maria, 1. The Eight House Theory is but only one of the Feng Shui theories. It is meant to find how suitable one is to the house and where possible, sleep in one of a individual's good sectors. Beside this, it is good to face a good direction e.g. especially for study and work. 2. It is `not ideal' to have the above, if the house does not conform to proper Shapes and Form. For more on Shapes and Form, there are either many books around to understand the concepts or you can go thru the materials under My Resources (Resources & Articles) on this site. 3. Use the Flying Star analysis to chart out the birth chart of the house. Here, this analysis is to check for any …

These are some of the considerations:- 1. Shapes and Forms Feng Shui 1.1 Try not to seat prolonged facing the "sunlight". For example, the office / room is bathed by the afternoon sun. And one's table is facing this sunlight. 1.2 Many people feel uncomfortable sitting with one's backtowards an opening e.g.the door or, doorof an attached toilet or a window. 1.3 Avoid working at a "dead corner" or a location that there is no air-flow especially if one does not turn on the fan or air-con. 1.4 Avoid seating next to or sharing the same wall as the stove or the toilet bowl wall - if possible. 2.

Dear Ang, Please There is a report available to analyse fully on this. It is common for those using a Loupan to read using the above method. It is read by looking at the Luopan and reading the facing and sitting direction. It is best to follow the methods of each practitioner (totally). And not mix one method with another. If each practitioner's method is followed closely, it should result in the same reading. Warmest Regards, Cecil

Dear Ling Ling, Currently the two most common methods at looking at the number of fishes to `rear' are: Method 1: The most common method is based on general good numbers of fish i.e. fishes should be numbering e.g. 5, 6, 8. (9 is still acceptable). Method 2: The other method is based on your kua number ie. if your kua is Li or South, you should rear 9 fishes. If your Kua number is Kan (North), you should rear 1 fish, if your Kua number is Chen or East, then you should rear 3 fishes. Ideally, this is based on the breadwinner's Kua number Conclusion ========== Frankly, the easiest method is to follow ` Method 1' especially if you have a large family and especially, the fish…

1. Usually an Feng Shui audit can determine what is the issue. 2. However, this goes beyond this forum. 3. Another aspect or (acceptable) alternative is perhaps to seek some form of professional counselling help as many of these issues are overlapped by Human or man luck factors...

Dear Anon, Rulers belong to another `school' of Feng Shui or Imperial carpentry. There are rulers for the dead (Yin) and rulers (Yang) or living. Many modern rulers or tape measures sold have both these two measurements on it. There is a sample at: www.geomancy.net/fs/ruler.htm The problem here is that if one finds in the market now, there are more than four different versions of the ruler (based on various different methods to derive the auspicious sectors on the ruler. In terms of importance, what is worse? Not to cure the imbalance or even if the measurements are not considered inauspicious? Priorty should go to curing the imbalance. Usually measurements are more cruci…

Dear Anon, Anonymous wrote: I am looking at buying a property where I can build my new home. ... Is there a way to counter the negative impact of those 3 problems, or I simply have to forget about this property? Thanks you very much for your help. I hope I can repay you one day if you are in Sydney. Since you haven't bought it, I would strong advise against purchasing it. There are quite a number of articles about such houses and the problems from it. So far, there has been no effective solutions to counter the negative impact from such underground water. So if you haven't purchase it, don't buy it. Look for other better property. Warmest Regards Robert Lee GEOMANCY.…

1. Yes, the key concept is to locate the "mouth" of a home. This mouth is considered vital as it allows qi to meander into the home. 2 A "mouth" needs to be opened, not all the time but at least, like a door or windows; need to open at least several times a day. Imagine, physically we have a mouth but never open it? Not even for food or water throughout the day? 3. You mentioned: "But these windows are never opened (due to extreme heat outside). what then?" Thus this set of windows if it is "sealed" for life does not "qualify" as the mouth of the home. 4. Your best bet is the other set of windows or the main door. But in my opinion, it looks more pronouced to use the o…

Dear Anon, Light i.e. flame is considered the fire element. Here, another more exact interpretation is that fire (flame) rises. Although lighting generate heat, it is not a `flame' where a flame can be extinguished by water. It is perfectly acceptable to have light shining to a pool of water. This is the same as natural light filtering into the fish tank. Therefore, there should not be an issue over this. When when flame touches water, then it matters. Warmest Regards, Cecil

Dear Eric, In my opinion, the Ba Gua symbol has been used on Toaist priest's clothings. Sometimes you find it on the front of their clothings and on occassions, it is on the back of their clothings. One may consider just tatooing the Yin-Yang symbol only i.e. which is found at the centre of the Ba Gua. Warmest Regards, Cecil
