Dear Jimmy, Jimmy Ng wrote: The binding elements to get the two parties to be compatible or reduce conflict is Earth. May I ask what would this Earth element refers to ? Five elements can refer to colours, shapes, direction, career and people around you. You can refer to this link for some guide about five element and relationships:- URL: http://talk.geomancy.net The most practicate for improving harmony between two persons would be choosing the right colour scheme / decrative patterns scheme for the room that both person's share. So in this case, this means more squarish shape design and or yellow/oranage colours. Only thing about Earth elements is that there ma…

In general, a kitchen contain lots of appliances. And if you are worried about the #5 falling into the kitchen, then one consolation is that hopefully one does have a refrigerator that matches this profile:- 1.1. A fridge especially if it is white or off-white or stainless steel is considered as a metal element. 1.2 Thus if one's frige is described above, and not yellow, then it is considered as a sizeable metal "chunk". And under the Five elements, metal is good to neutralise #5.

Dear Anon, 1. No, what you mentioned is not the correct application of Feng Shui. 2. In Feng Shui, we must determine, whether is it personalised for the individual? 2.1 If one look at it closely, even Shapes and Form School analysis is personalised to the individual or the specific home. For example, if there is a corner of a building aimed at your home, the poison arrow is aimed at that specific house. Thus it does not mean that because of the poison arrow aimed at the above house, other houses e.g. a neighbours would automatically get the Sha Qi. Most likely not. If so, it may, instead be at a `T' junction and thus have a totally different poison arrow. If we scrutini…

Hi Anon, For Eight House, this kind of opposite situations are quite common. Here is where you must apply the give and take approach. For example, the house should best fit the breadwinner earning most for the entire family. While the bedrooms should be suitable to other family members that will be staying there. So for example, if the breadwinner gets a Prosperity facing, even if he gets a lesser suitable bedroom ie spook / irritation, this should be fine. The breadwinner should then give the spouse a better room ie Health. That means that even if the spouse isn't that suitable to the house, she will draw luck from the more suitable bedroom. Other areas, you mu…

Please help! Basically, the stars have 7/6 which represents weak metal/Strong Metal. So it should be enough to control the Earth Star. However, with the entrance of the second Star 5 from the yearly star. Solution:- 1. Additional Metal may still be needed to control the star 5. So best to keep this area white. One way is to add the 6 coins with red string to strengthe…

Dear Anon, Quote: currently my fiance and myself are looking for a house that is scheduled to be completed ahead of schedule in end 2006. My hubby to be kua is 4. Strong fire Mine is 2. Strong fire Seems like what's good for me is bad for him and vice versa. I understand thatthe maleshould draw the luck from the house. Which direction should the master bedroom be in? Hope todraw luck from the room if possible. Believe bed orientation is a headache too...haiz.... This is a very common issue that most people face. So most will apply the give and take approach:- 1. The breadwinner must be given the best house suitability. While if possible the house facing should not fal…

1. May consider install a partition. Some comments on the type of partition can be found, here:- http://www.geomancy.net/wiki/Divider_or_Partition 2. On / Off! When the main door is opened, (if possible) the kitchen door is closed. Frankly this may not be practical day-to-day situation. Para 1 is a better choice.

Dear Max, 1. For a new home, one do not need to strictly adhere to the Grand Duke or Tai Sui theory. Especially if it has not even been stayed in yet. 2. It is always good to choose auspicious dates for: 2.1 Start of renovations. 2.2 Choose a good date for symbolic "move-in". 2.3 Choose a good date for actual move-in. Warmest Regards, Cecil

Dear Chew Khui Suan, Chew Khiu Suan wrote: I like to find out when i renovate my office in the current period, it becomes period 8, right? Not really. If the renovations are not major enough, it may not be enough to fly over to period 8. Only renovations like hacking down of walls etc that changes the Qi flow within the house are often considered major. The rest may not. However, in most cases, you can still do a symbolic fly over by repainting the entire house, and having at least 3 major celebrations to attempt to fly it over. This will take a longer period of time for the Qi to fly over (ie 1 year or more). Chew Khiu Suan wrote: the thing i am concerned is that th…

Dear Sharon, While your explanation is thorough, it is recommended for an individual to physically inspect the location. Despite the possibility of the main entrance being at the front of the road or a side entrance, it is still safe to observe the property even if the front side faces the ocean. For instance, the front side, such as the side facing the ocean, can be perceived as the front side instead of the actual front side accessible from the road. Warmest Regards, Cecil

Dear Daniel, More important consideration is the edge of a table which produces `Sha Qi'. Others relating to books and CD's are modern concepts and in my opinion less important than Sha Qi produced by sharp corners and overhead beams. Many of us are constantly surrounded with such modern day convenience and it is difficult to keep these away yet be convenient for us to `use'. Warmest Regards, Cecil

Dear Anon, Try to visit this resource:- Discuss :: Free Advice (General Feng Shui) Conference: Part I - Facing direction of a home dated 4/22/2004 Part II - Facing direction of a home dated 4/22/2004 For a better understanding on this matter. Warmest Regards, Cecil

Hi Diana, For choice of tomb, you will have to use shapes and forms concept to determine which part of the land would be better. Probably, look out for like the Four Symbolic animals, where is the tortise protection, where is the open area, and many other shapes and form concept like water position, mountain position etc. Those are more important in the choice of a tomb location. The Eight House suitability isn't used for the dead, it is a concept for the living. Probably best, here to get someone who does tomb location geomancer as they can better advise you which is better position. Hope that helps.

Dear Gavin, Gavin Loe wrote: Can anyone please give some advise on the ideal location/facing for placing a fish tank with 8 gold & 1 black gold fish? Generally, the best position to place water feature is where there is an auspicious water star 8 present in that sector. You need to check out the flying star analysis of your home using our free reports on the website to determine which would be the best sector in the home which will benefit from a fish tank/water feature. If you do not look at these information, then usually the best place to place a fish tank or water feature is at the living room/balcony area which is often considered an open space. This is one ar…

(Note: For those who have not seen a `Tiger balm' medicated oil, check out this link: http://www.tigerbalm.com ) According to the description of this external medicine, it is used for the symptomatic relief of muscular aches and pains, sprains, insect bites, itching, headache. It is gently rubbed on affected parts. It contains: mehtnol, campor, mint old, clove oil, cajuput oil and paraffin. No, there is no evidence to suggest that carrying the tiger balm is `detriment' to luck. In addition, most of the time, it is kept in the bag and I do not anyone carrying it out openly in their hands. Warmest Regards, Cecil

Dear Spring Bennett, spring bennett wrote: hi, what can i do to bring good tiding for 2007, i am a water rabbit, believe weak water and forecast not so good? My sincere thanks! Always have more of your favourable elements that you lack in your ba zi. Such as wearing favourable colours of clothes, own or drive a car that is of your favourable colours, stay in a house that is suitable and if possible a suitable element for you, have a suitable career etc. All these will automatically, improve you luck. This way even if the year isn't that favourable, all these favourable elements will boost your luck improving your resistance to a bad year etc or at least minimising the im…

1. Since no two lots or sites are the same, just be careful thatthe main door is not facing a T juction (street). And under Shapes and Forms, the drainage needs to be looked at. In general, best to avoid a large drainage behind the plot. Quote: I am looking at a lot, frontage is about 24 meters. But a portion-8 meters is facing a street. Isit still advisable to acquire such a lot. Is there a bad omen to lots facing a street. This is just a portion.

Dear Anon, Quote: Some so called "wise" people remarked on house that if main door is located at bad sector, it should be relocated to a good sector. Then my bathroom/toilet which is in the good sector must be relocated to bad sector in order to suppress the bad "qi". Also my kitchen which is in the rear of my house (good sector) should be moved to inner aprt of my house (bad sector). All these of course will mean huge cost to rennovate. Any one has any comment? Xie-Xie.(thanks) In terms of suitability to sector and house etc. Of course it is ideal to be able to have the luxuary to be able to relocate the various rooms so that it will be favourable for you. It sounds to …

Dear Anon, Generally, there are two approaches with regards to placing a water feature: 1. Persional feeling (Most common method) Here, as you have mentioned, most likely, either the location choosen seems to be an appropriate choice or because of the home layout; we most likely find that this is one of the better choice. 2. Applying Flying Star Feng Shui As Flying star Feng Shui uses a "scientific" method of determining where a water feature is useful to be placed. Frankly, not many people may want to go for the second approach. However, without using or applying the second approach, there is no reference to state where we should place the fish tank other than usi…

Frankly, without some pictures.. I really cannot properly imagine it. Or even so, may come to mis-communication. Like the saying goes.. a picture tells a thousand words; while lines of text makes one yawn and (unfortunately) fall asleep... zzzz ... zzzz. zzzz. zzzz.zzzz
