General Help

1. Please note that the report considers three factors: Eight House, Flying Star and Ba Zi of the breadwinner. 2. Yang Feng Shui or Feng Shui for the living; the facing direction is important. 3. For Yin Feng Shui or Feng Shui for the dead; then refer to what you mentioned, below. 4. The Flying Star Period 7 applies; only thing is that under Period 8; the #8 are important for this period. Majority of the time; each sector will still depend on the 81 combinations or interactions of the Mountain star vs the Water star.

Further to what I had mentioned:- 1. Please do a SEARCH under this forum for words like ` Xia Li ' or ` Hsia ' or ` intercalary ' to understand more about the Hsia calendar system widely used by `Hong Kong' or Hong Kong related practitioners. 2. Many of those that learnt the Hsia have migrated or returned to countries like Canada (many Hong Kongers have migrated there), the United States. Because of it's education under Britian, this is largely the voice of " Geomancy" in the pre-1990's era. 3. Often, the China or Taiwanese form or the `Fukien' or Hokkien School which uses the Lunar Calendar was not well known; because many Taiwan (where many practitioners fled to under …

Under Human or Man Luck factor, yes, it is always excellent to seek immediate family member's view. This often shifts the entire burden of "responsibility" to shared responsibility = consensus. Here, it not only put you personally at ease but also indirectly boost your Human or Man Luck factor. (Under the Holy Trinity of Luck: Heaven (born with) and Feng Shui (Earth luck of home and office). Another or last category of luck Human or Man Luck must never, never to overlooked. Some people, don't have great Heaven nor Feng Shui luck; but with strong Human or Man Luck; it can transcend over the other two type of luck.)

Understand it is symbols of protection in the home or office. Dear Sophia, This is not Feng Shui but rather, it is a common practise by many Chinese to place the Kuan Kong (holding a Chinese long sword) facing a main entrance. Since he is holding a sword, he should not be facing into or "looking" at us in the living room. Warmest Regards, Cecil

1. Please check out past forum messages on the best placement of such figurines:- http://forum.geomancy.net/phpforum/article.php?bid=2&fid=1&mid=15799&new= 2. You can also use the SEARCH feature in this forum and find out more on the best placement e.g. odd interior layout ... etc...

In Singapore, very few who display the Guan Yin (Kuan Yin) figure ever place a willow in her right hand. So no issue if you don't have one i.e. it makes no difference.

Note: Dear Sophia, apologies, as you had posted 5 copies of this message, I had accidentally deleted the one with the picture. Can u please upload the picture again and avoid posting too many duplicate messages to the forum. Dear Master Cecil Lee Attached therewith a picture of "Kuan Yin" wearing a red robe,as my last mail, you mentioned that yet to see a kuan yin figurine in the pose. The 15thlunar month is auspicious as you mentioned. Can I send to the temple on 07thlunar month or before the 15th lunar month. Do we need to cover the kuan yin with red cloth or red paper before sending to the temple. Thankyou With warmest regards Sophia Chia

Dear Joanne, Joanne Yang wrote: Hi Master, currently thekuan yin altar at myliving room is placeddirectly facingone of the bedroom's entrance(about 3.5m away). When bedroom door is open fully, it also faces the bedroom's set of windows which looks out to a roundabout driveway (we are staying at ground floor where there isan alighting porch for cars just outside our flat).At night, the headlights from any cars going into the driveway roundabout will shine towards the altar. Is it ok?? Read in one of the threads that altar should not face bedroom door? Is there any reason? Altar has several ruleset where is should be placed facing. Facing the bedroom is one of them, simply…

I recently bought a Kuan Yin for my house and I would like to know where the best place to put her at? Location A faces the front door but it is offset. Location C is where the living room will be but she will face the kitchen and location B is where the dining room will be . Thank you

Dear Master Cecil Lee Thank you for the quick response. Yes, there is alion dance on the 4th lunar month. Good news that I retain theextra Guan Yin. May I ask you master Cecil, what make you decided that I can retain the extra Guan Yin. At least I know the reason. Do youmean the two Guan Yin are in difference position, is acceptable. I sincerely thank you all the trouble you go thru. Thank you once again With warmest regards Sophia Chia

Dear Anon, No, generally, L Box is usually made up of "light materials" like gypsum board. And close to flat. Unlike a concentrated beam that often needs to support a structure. Thus, in my opinion, it is just a perception, then a real issue. For example, some say that a double-decker bed is not good. Because, sleeping on the lower bunk is not favourable. However, it is very common since the 1930's for many people to sleep on a double decker or bunk bed. Notice that it is one flat piece and not a concentrated beam. In the 1930's till to-date, many have entered universites, stayed in dormitories and have also sleep on double decker beds. No significant issues in heal…

Dear Barbara, In my opinion, under Feng Shui, `L-shaped' houses are not unlucky. More importantly, if one is trying to audit or access an `L-shaped' home, then, one has to try to find the centrepoint as well as one can further sub-divide the house into two `symbolic' rectangles to access the home. Therefore, rest assured that an `L-shaped' home does not necessarily mean inauspiciousness. Warmest Regards, Cecil

Dear Anon, 1. As all of us is aware, there are lots of practititioners and their skill level and methods used. 2. As you have not mentioned whether the practititioners used the following theories: a. Shapes and Form School To access both the interior and exterior of the home. b. Flying Star Chart This is to analyse the birth chart of the house and check for imbalances and Qi enhancements (e.g. activating mountain or water stars). c. Relate the above to the Eight House (Suitablity of the house and the influence of bedroom) d. Pillars of Destiny To obtain the true element and strength and to check the season of influence. 3. Not all FS audits under Para a, b, c and d are d…

Dear Anon, For the Eight House, this is simple. You superimpose the individual's template on to the exact compass directions on both cases. For the Flying Star, it is best to consult a FS practioner to determine the location of the main entrance. I have not seen your exact layout plan so cannot give you a precise answer. However, if you are doing it on your own, you should consider the rectangle shape with the main entrance to determine the main entrance. Warmest Regards, Cecil

Dear Robert, Simply orientate the markings in each L-shaped rectangle to the compass markings e.g. North-North template, South to South - true compass directions. Warmest Regards, Cecil Regards

Hello Master Lee, I wonder if there is an impact on the flow of the internal room spaces, when placing the two rectangles on L shaped buildings. Attached is the floor plan. Given the kitchen top right is the largest room, should one rectangle cover the whole top of this build (with missing space in the north) and a small rectangle be placed bottom left . Or would the major walls of the building define the first rectangle as covering the whole left hand side of the building with a near square top right? I wondered if when a choice arose, the rooms and flow of people through them had any impact? Either way this home has a missing space the apex of which lies in a cemet…

Dear Henry, Please see below:- Yes, in my opinion, it is good to lit up the hallway. For the falling water, normally, it is placed either outside the office e.g. the entrance or alternatively; within the reception counter area. From your description, since this is a narrow hallway, it would be difficult to place a waterposition at this area. Warmest Regards, Cecil

These are some considerations: 1. Overall, the extension of this home is still a rectangular plot. 1.1. Thus under Shapes and Forms Feng Shui, since you may be doing A and A works; it is feasible to do so. Given that there are many other homes that are in an L-shaped configuration. 1.2. So long as it is configured properly, should not pose a problem. 2. It is good to apply both the Eight House concept and Flying Stars to analyse the interior of the home. 3. One of the external considerations is the House B. Here, usually, house B has an angle e.g. under marking in red A often aimed towards your potential new home. If so, make sure that there are no major openings su…

Dear Anon, The more important consideration as you have mentioned is to try avoid having an `L' shape. It is thus better to `break' down the `L' into two square/rectangle shape. It does not really matter here if you have to decide what to call the two `halves'. You can call one the main living room and the other any name. It really does not matter. Warmest Regards, Cecil

Dear Master Lee We are looking at the attached unti. It looks like an L shape (front door facing SE1/SE2 and balcony facing NW2/NW3). Is this truly L shape where two rectangles need to be drawn? Or do we draw a square showing a missing S and SW sector (not so good for Period 8 and Period 9 due to missing stars and kitchen in wrong sector)? The missing S/SW sector is just a void, no adjoining rooms of other units. The second picture shows the floor plan of the building stack (unit is number 14). Thank you very much for your help. B

Dear Linda, Thank you for your words of encouragement:) You should exclude the garage if you are doing a Feng Shui assessement using the Compass School theories such as Flying Star and Eight House which subdivides the various sectors. If you have the time to upload a sketch of your house and indicate the location of the garage, I can help you find the centrepoint of the house. If the file is small, e.g. in .jpg (Jpeg format) you can attach it to this conference or for a larger file, attach it to the conference: "Conference for Attaching Layout". In Feng Shui, under the Compass School, the Flying star theory has two modules: 1. The common Flying Star Chart ana…
