Dear Todd, Todd Nelson wrote: Hi. I'm a man and not in a relationship. To be honest, they dont come by very often or last very long. I'd like to see what feng shui can do to help me fix this. My home faces east, and my bedroom is the Southwest corner, the romance corner (must be some sort of sick joke). My furniture is wooden, and my room colors are blue and green mixes. My element is Water. I have been lighting pairs of candles every night, btw do these have to be the same color? I sleep with my head pointing east or southeast to encourage yang energies. I also attach a Jade double hope to the left side of my belt and a jade bagua on the right side of my belt. I figured…

Hit d, In such a house, you will have to divide the house equally in the eight pie. The apply the cures that fall within that sector of influence. If possible try to see whether how much the sector falls under that sector. Usually the bigger sector will have greater influence. Put the cure in the center of that sector of influence based on the Eight Pie division. Just placed one cure in that sector. Meaning that if the cure placed falls in the Master bedroom and Bedroom, you place the cure on the wall between the bedroom, then it will then correct the influence for that sector. Sometimes it can be hard to explain. If you have a layout, I can tell better advise you what…

Hi Hoa Luong, Hoa Luong wrote: My house is SW2/P7. My bedroom is in SW sector (ms4, bs 4, ws1, ys 1). I'd like to change the floor from carpet to wood. I'm having a lawsuit pending. Because of the ms4 and bs4, will this wood floor make my lawsuit situation worse? Generally, there is no issue for the type of flooring. I mean there can only be wood flooring or tiles or carpet. It would be impractical to use other material for bedroom as it might be too cool for even your feet. More important would usually be the colour scheme of the room. The flooring materials are not an issue. Hope that helps. Warmest Regards Robert Lee GEOMANCY.NET - Center for Applied Feng Shui Rese…

Dear nilg?n birg?l, You should check out these two articles by Cecil Part 1 - Facing direction of a home Part 2 - Facing direction of a home nilg?n birg?l wrote: i am an architectural designer from istanbul/ turkey, and very new to feng shui. thank you very much for your very informative site. i am a bit confused with compass reading. my family will move to a new house next month but although i studied your informative pages, i;m not surehow to take the compass reading because the living room of the house faces the street, however, you enter the building and the house from the rear. besides, it is not a square or a rectangle, it is L shaped. what am i supposed to do…

Hi Anon, Anonymous wrote: When leaving the marital home due to seperation and divorce, Would it be appropiate to take material possessions? minus garbage and donating to charity. How about the marriage bed and frame? less than 2 years old? or the bedroom suite ?Is there any advise to help the transition to a new life? This is really up to you. Personally, there isn't harm taking things that can still be used. Most of what you mentioned are mostly chinese beliefs if any. Probably the reason why you might not want to consider the bed and frame is so that it does not remind you of an unsuccessful marriage for example. So ideally, if you want to start a fresh it is best to …

Hi Angela, Sorry, but didn't see any attached picture. So quite difficult to comment based on your description. Please re-attach the file. Generally, you need to be more concerned about the breadwinner (probably your husband). You need to ensure that the house faces at least one of your 4 good directions and have a suitable bedroom for the breadwinner. If the eight house is quite opposite, then at least house should suit the breadwinner while the bedroom should suit the spouse. Hope that helps.

Dear Nawaz Ahmed, Nawaz Ahmed wrote: I want to place fish aquarium with 8 gold fish & 1 black fish in my living room. Which is the best corner position compass direction South-East or North-East? Frankly, this really depends a lot on what stars are present in the South-East or North-East sector of thouse based on the flying star analysis. Make use of the free reports in the member area to determine what stars are present. You should try to determine where is your auspicious water star. If your home is a period 8 house for example, then if you have a water star 8 in the South-East, then you should place the aquarium in that sector compared to North-East. Nawaz Ahm…

Hi Francis, francis wan wrote: Thanks for the advice ,I will try to shift the bed direction to avoid the beam &bathroom door for better results Yes, if you can avoid the beam it will be good. The bathroom is quite a common issue, so it really does not matter as much. Just keep it close when not using. This should be enough. Hope that helps.

Hi Thanh Huynh, Thanh Huynh wrote: Thanks for your reply Robert. I have one more question. What if I plant 2, 3 more trees around or be side this big tree and some more flower bushes to make it look like a garden,will that help also? Yes, this will work as well. As long as you can break the sha qi it will help. Furthermore, by making it into a garden, you actually beautify the place and that will definately be good in terms of feng shui. As creating a nice environment that you feel good to live in is essentially what Feng Shui is all about. Creating Harmony Hope that helps.

Hi Anon, Anonymous wrote: I am absolutely new to Feng Shui. In an effort to find out why my house "doesn't feel right", before I paint this place for the sixth time in seven years, I have started to study, and study, and study. This web site has been very helpful in getting me started in what I believe to be the right direction. One thing that you know in Feng Shui, that you must feel comfortable in the place you live in. There shouldn't be a need to keep re-painting the home just because you think it is unsuitable. Colours are just one aspect of feng shui sometimes you should check if there are other flaws, ie sharp corners cutting your usual work or sleep area for exa…

Hi Amatuer Cat, Amatuer Cat wrote: I have nasty, nasty neighbors living in the apartment below me, So I am using tiny mirrors and tin-foil under my area rugs to reflect their energy back to them. They consider me to be negative energy to them, andam afraid if they are practicing feng shui too, what happens if they are doingsomething similar, like using mirrors to reflect my energy back to me? Does this cancel it out? Frankly, a lot of feng shui practises that advise the use of ba gua or mirror against say another neighbour isn't usually friendly application of Feng Shui. Why do I say that? Simple. If you do that, your neighbours will have no choice but to do the same …

Hi Anon, Anonymous wrote: From the research I have done it seems I may have what is called a 'black stream' flowing under my propery/home. How do i balance this. Frankly, these probably has to do with the way underground water has over your home. Similiar to this link:- URL: http://www.geomancy.net/resources/art/art-under.htm The only true way to not be influenced by it, is frankly to move out to a better location without this issue. Because, if not if you continue to live in such a homes, health will be affected in a matter of time. Any solutions/items if any will only be slowing down the influence, not completely removing the negative influence from such a problem…

Hi Christine, christine palmer wrote: I have been trying to sell 2 out of state properties. will either sell in the next 30 or so days? Or any advice on how to sell them? You should understand that Feng Shui by no means a miracle cure for all problems. In terms of selling property, probably some of these practical points will help you more:- 1. Ensuring the place you are selling looks clean. Or give it a fresh coat of paint to make it look new. 2. Make use of the strengths of a building to sell it (ie located near like public transport - trains, convienent location, near schools etc). 3. Get a good property agent who has lots of contacts can improve the sales. Other…

Hi James, james koh wrote: I am staying on a high floor apartment with all windows facing the Sembawang airbase which is about 1-2Km away. Is this airbase consider an poison arrow? Can you advise,normally how far a distance from mywindowshould I use to check for posion arrows? It really depends on the shape of the building. From what I can tell if the landing air strip points to your home, then yes, this might be considered a posion arrow. If not, it depends on the building, whether there is any corners pointing or cutting into your home. The main thing with air base is often the sound pollution if any. Just like sun light which is considered a sha qi because of the h…

Hi Cheryl, cheryl ludwig wrote: This is my question. I am planning on buying a tract of land and building a house on it. How do I go about knowing which direction everything should be in, in addition to where to place living room, kitchen, bedrooms (2), etc. ? When I draw up the plans, I want to start out the correct feng shui way before the house is built? What is my next step? Thank you for any assistance. Unfortunately, each house is unique as such there will not be a single perfect template that you can refer to. The only way you can get a perfectly designed house is to seek a professional home consultation to help you make recommendations on your home so that it sui…

Hi Anon, In terms of beams, ideally it is best not to be able to see it if possible. Anonymous wrote: We have just finished building our dream house, actually its a loghouse so the problem is we have big beams over our beds and in the living room area, also we have a big log postsupporting the secondfloorareain the middle of the living room. So usually, two most efficient ways to go about it is to either have a false ceiling which will hide the beams. Or to have a bed with those canopy beds which you can place like curtain or cover on top. That should help you shield the beams from your view when you are sleeping on the bed. These two are two more practical ways rather…

Hi Anon, Anonymous wrote: I came across one of your articles which seemed to say that it is not quite good to have a bedroom above the kitchen. I'm not sure why but my new master bedroom happens to be above the kitchen. What shall I do? Yes. The reason behind it is simple. Since the kitchen is below the bedroom, the likelyhood of a fire to start under the kitchen would be very much higher. As such becomes a pontential danger to the people sleeping above. The most simple and practical way to solve this threat is to install smoke detectors. This will at least alert you in case of such a situation.

How many pa Kua can we hang in a house? Can they hang two pa kua at Ground and 1st floor? Please advise. Thanks. Regards, Rachel

Hi Anon, Nntp Guest wrote: My boss upon seeking their master's advice, put a 6ft tall plant outside my room. According to my colleague, this is to prevent the person in that room (i.e. now its me) to leave the company. This means that I am stuck with this company whether I like it or not. And I have been feeling uncomfortable since the plant was placed outside my room. Is there a way to counter this and make me feel better working in that room? As you are only an employee in the office, it is difficult for you to put or suggest removal of the plant. So probably only thing you can do is attempt to add Metal to balance the plant. One suggest would be to have a 6 coins wit…
