Dear Bato, 1. In my opinion, it is easier to reply to your question if the placement is more of a hobby. 2. But if it is meant more for Feng Shui, then there are usually more considerations:- 2.1 In General:- It is still acceptable to place a fish tank along the wall area especially the living room area. 2.2 More specific:- - it is to avoid the placement of a water position close to the centrepoint of the house - be careful of placing water positions especially if the breadwinner and spouse are either `weak fire' or `strong water' persons. For example, water can further extinguish a weak fire element person. And water is not favourable to a strong water person. 3. Lookin…

Dear GoldenDragon, 1. Under the Shapes and Form School 1.1 Do not place the table on an `island'. Where best, it should have the support of a wall. 1.2 For the office, it is best to be located in a room in the house (with sufficient natural lighting where possible). Avoid a `dark room'. 2. Under the Eight House Theory 2.1 It should be a location with good intangible force for yourself. Avoid having it at an inauspicious sector. 2.2 Of secondary importance: see if you can sit facing a good direction. The above are general guidelines without taking into consideration the Flying Star theory. If the Flying Star theory is considered, one can try to locate it at one's good Ei…

1. Usually it is difficult to guage what kind of problem or issue as it also depends on the height of the pyramids, whether it is a full pyramid or simply it looks like a partial pyramid like Conrad in Singapore. And the distance to it and/or is any of the sharp points pointed towards your office window. 2.One can apply the concept: "If it cannot be seen it no longer can become a threat. " If so, often most or all offices uses some kind of a blind - close the blind as a possible "solution" to the "problem" if any.

Dear Elena, Today, I would view, the flooring with a `different' view. In my opinion, I view flooring in relation to the Yin and Yang rather than the element of a person. 1. Preference would be for lighter coloured tiles than dark coloured tiles. Especially if the house does not get enough lighting. My view has `differed' in this view point that instead of looking at the elements and relating it to the persons, (5 elements), I go one higher to the Yin and Yang. The rationale is that it is more important to keep the house, `bright' especially the living room. For the bedroom paquet or wooden flooring is acceptable, which makes it dark (for some room) but in fac…

Dear Carina, Please see below:- This is classified under the Eight House Theory. Under the Eight House Theory, there are four good and four bad sectors. The key essence of the Eight house is: 1. How suitable the house is to the person. Here, you can have excellent Flying Star but it need not necessary mean that it is the most suitable house to the person. 2. Best to sleep in a good sector i.e. bedroom is at a good sector. Here, since we sleep more than 6 or more hours, it is best to sleep in a good sector. 3. Other uses include sitting or facing a good direction. This is secondary to Para 1 and 2. Many of us would love to `squeeze' more out of every conceivable `theor…

Dear Flannery, Please see below:- In my opinion, it is best not to apply "Sector concepts" as this is too general. For the bathroom in the center of the apartment, is a concern. There is not much that can be done here. If it is feasible, not to use it or keep it bright and dry. My front In my opinion, I would not be too concerned with the `Relationship area'. The staircase over the main entrance is acceptable. So long it is not a toilet - which is inauspicious. There should not be any problem using the main entrance door. Overall, you may consider checking out using the Free Eight House Report to check on how suitable the house is to you and what intangible f…

Dear Ang Chye, The easiest method is to use the Pillars of Comparison (for members) to find the binding elements of both you and your wife. Please take note the element and strength of the above report is used in conjunction with the analysis under Pillars of Destiny version 7. As the Pillars of Destiny 8 is based on two more `Pillars'. While most of the time may be the same, but may slightly vary in some occasions. For those using Pillars of Destiny 8, later, we will have a module for this version. But again, the Pillars of Comparison for version 7 is already accurate. Warmest Regards, Cecil Lee

Dear Anon, If one is not sure, please use the Pie chart method. It is similar to the Eight House `angle' of influence concept: If you can draw a simple diagram to illustrate what you mean, as I am not too clear what u actually mean:) Warmest Regards, Cecil

Dear Anon, For kitchen `Feng Shui', there are several `rule-sets' or guidelines: 1. Where possible, the fire stove should face inwards (into the house). This implies that there is `warmth' in the house. 2. Under Shapes and Form Feng Shui, it is not as good if the stove face outwards of the house. 3. Where possible, the stove, should be an auspicious sector - for the `women' of the house. But since you are a Male and if you are living alone - it should (preferably) still be located at an auspicious sector. 4. If there is no ventilation hood and if there is a ceiling beam that presses against the stove, this is inauspicious. 5. It is equally inauspicious if an exposed water…

Dear Anon, 1. Under the Flying Star Theory, one has to look at the top two stars in addition to the base star. One should not look just at the base star in isolation. For example, you mentioned that (2) is at West in the kitchen. Under the Flying Star Theory, one has to look at the relationship between the two stars e.g. mountain and water star and relate this to the base star. If for example one element for the water star is `bad' and it is helped by another element that assists the bad star e.g. water assists wood and in turn there is a sickness star at the base, one has to analyse all three and come up with a solution to balance it. E.g. introducing fire element to co…

Dear Mr Lee Thank you so much for your reply. Greatly appreciate your help. Emily free-advice Listmanager wrote: From: Cecil Lee Dear Emily, 1. Other than Yr3, (although bad wood - that is helpful, this time around), the other combinations of #5 x 2 fueled with M#9 fire is indeed - pretty bad. (Yes, very inauspicious). 2. The idea behind the neutralising of #5 is the use of constant metal. Thus, imagine this: a wind chime that does not make (constant) noise is as good as not having a wind chime at all. This is akin to swallowing a sugar coated pill with no good visible results. 3. With this potent combination of #5 x 2, one sure need to have pretty much constant metal to…

Dear Wong Jin, Wong Jin wrote: The door of two bedrooms are facing each other. Wong Jin wrote: What is the pro and cons? In feng shui, if you have such a situation, it is often considered that the people staying in the room may have quarrel more as they may not be able to see eye to eye. Usually, one solution would be to either put a red dot on the doorhandle. So that it is like creating an eye to let the door see eye to eye with each other. Hope that helps.

Dear Anon, Apologise if the picture is not very clear. I have tried my best to scan a version of it plus considering the optimal size for it. No, the roof does not symbolise any auspicious `thing'. The `answer' will be posted in two weeks time. By the way, there are two new conferences created under geomancy-forum.com: (1). Try this Fun Polls and (2). Answers to Fun Polls A. This is to allow greater participation by everyone. And would be nice to see how everyone has voted so far. B. One can only vote once per poll. (To avoid `cheating'. If you have a poll you want created you can:- 1. Either create an account at www.pollit.com, create the poll and post it into an messag…

Dear Anon, 1. Generally, it is very unusual to find water positions on both side of the door. Thus there can be some truth in what you have mentioned. 2. What I mentioned by some truth is that we can still analyse if we want to the effects by looking at the Flying Star Chart of that sector. 3. Another important clue is: 3.1 That too much water creates a too yin environment. 3.2 Traditional Chinese are not infavour of having too many wells at a home or around it. One is bad enough. Although water is a necessity, one major fear is that someone may fall into etc... Therefore, many traditional Chinese belief in spirits in wells. 3.3 Water position where possible at the fron…

Dear Anon, I cannot blame you for being so confused as to where to hang Christmas lights after reading here and there. This is because, based on what you wrote, all the understanding is not correct. 1. Grand duke theory states that one should not: a. Touch `him' b. Distrub him. I can in general understand one may consider lights `disturbing' him but it should not be the case. 2. 5 Yellow is based on this Year's Flying Star Chart where south = 5 Yellow. Again, this is based on a general assessment that every household must be careful of 5 Yellow. This `theory' is too general to be applied and is not tailored to the individual. I believe, at this point in time since you ar…

Dear Molly, 1. Under the Feng Shui concept `if it no longer can be seen, it no longer becomes a " threat ". This principle can also be applied to the gas cylinder. 2. Usually, it is kept away from the bedrooms either next to it or directly below a bedroom. 3. Generally, it is advised that the cable is not too long or placed too far from the source (if possible). 4. If the tank is `concealed' or placed in a cabinet, then, place it like any other liquid e.g. a water heater in such a location. Thus safety would be a primary concerned when compared to `Feng Shui'. Warmest Regards, Cecil

Dear Anon, One can place a bedside table between the toilet door and the bed. Here, one also has to place a table / reading lamp on it. By doing so, it will act as a `partition' between the toliet area and the bed. For the sha qi i.e. corner pointing towards the bed, especially if it is made of wood you can use a wind chime. You can try this out. Since metal is overall quite a safe element to use and there should normally not be any `harm' doing this i.e. experiment. Warmest Regards, Cecil

Dear Anon, Based on Flying Star Feng Shui, currently many homes that usually have NE or SW facing and that are Period 8 homes should enjoy better Feng Shui or earth luck. As to the perfect home, one chief concern is the external shapes and forms. As this has a great influence on the home. In addition, it is good that the home or apartment should if possible not be affected too much by direct sunlight. For example, we should avoid homes with critical areas "bathed" by the afternoon sun - especially if it is a wall "soaking in the" afternoon sun e.g. master bedroom wall or children's bedroom; living room etc... Such h…

Dear Master Lee, Thank you very much for your very helpful elaboration and advise on my query. Warmest regards Elizabeth Olivan

Dear Anthea, Yes, under the fortune telling analysis, Moles on Face is one form of analysis:- URL: http://www.geomancy.net/resources/art/art-face.htm In our website, we all along do not emphase on fortune telling portions for even ba zi. This is because, we believe that a lot of such fortune telling if any only create fears for people. And it will create this self-fullfilling concept. Where a person believes so much in the negative prediction, that you actually make it happen. Frankly, any form of even cosmetic surgery (how small), carries a risk of danger. So is it really worth the while to do so? The best way is to try to be in harmony with your envrionment, by kno…

Dear May, It is good to avoid the "coffin position" where the legs should not face the bedroom door. If so, best to "change position"; at least with the head facing the bedroom door is (not ideal) but acceptable). If you need some privacy; it would be good if the bed has a bedhead. Else if not, then something like a clean bath towel placed on a "open-hole" bedhead is acceptable. For rooms that may have #5 or #2 avoid bright yellow or bright red in a bedroom. As a safeguard to avoid the sickness stars. Warmest Regards, Cecil
