Dear Anon, 1. Most of the time, Hong Kong practitioners use the Fish Tank (with goldfish) to neutralise sha qi. Such as to neutralise a lamp post which is considered the wood element (Because if one imagine a tree, it is tall and thin like a lamp post. 2. Usually, most of the practitioners should have an understanding of Flying Star theory. If so, they should be able to advise their clients whether or not, rocks (earth) may or may not be detrimental to a sector. 3. So they should be able to advise their clients when not to place rocks = earth at certain sectors. Because earth, if placed in a `Big Earth' or also called 5 yellow (because Big Earth = 5 and earth is yellow)…

Dear Ramesh Ramchand, Unfortunately, suitability to a home just like the external factors of a home is the hardest or almost impossible to correct once you have purchased the house. Thus, it is important that when you are hunting for your home, you make sure these two areas are good, else there is very little you can do afterwards. The only advice here I can give you is to ensure that all other areas such as flying star of the home is corrected, enhance your own individual ba zi, and ensure that at least you have a suitable bedroom location to help offset the adverse impact of the unsuitable house. Hope that helps. Warmest Regards Robert Lee GEOMANCY.NET - Center for …

Dear Anon, Please see below:- Usually, without much analysis in Feng Shui, as you have mentioned, it would be preferred not to use red carpeting in a room especially in the bedroom. 1. Red is considered th most yang colour and bedroom should usually have more yin (rest) than yang (activity). 2. Depending on the sector, or compass directions, it would not be too ideal to have red at the South side or sector as it represents the `fire' element. 3. It should preferably not good to use a blue colour for the bedsheet as there would be an extreme contrast of red and blue where both can easily clash. Perhaps, you can try to use a lighter shade of blue or grey. Thank you…

Dear Anon, What you mentioned would depend on a person's belief or religious belief and how strong is one's belief. For example, when you mentioned `killing' of animals, and one has strong buddhist beliefs, then one should avoid what you had mentioned below. Even in other religions like Muslims, they also have a ritual for `praying' before slaughtering animals. Muslims only eat food that are certified "Halal" in this manner. Therefore, it depends on how `strong' is your beliefs. Most of the time, nowadays maybe because of convenience, animals are pre slaughtered and we buy them, cleaned and `ready' so this should not be a major issue or concern for us. Some religions bel…

Dear Felicity, In my opinion, it would be more frutiful to try to boost our luck in other areas (if we can). Namely under: 1. Feng Shui of the home - Shapes and forms of the home - Others such as Flying Star. 2. Pillars of destiny - personal luck. 3. Protect the house such as the main entrance door or windows from poison arrows. 4. As for how to counteract the effects of having the main entrance door under `death sector' ... we can do only that much ie. to comfort ourselves such as, closing the door when not in use or keep the location bright. Warmest Regards, Cecil

I thought this cure is for sector where star #2 and #5 are at? So in what situation do you use 6 coin cure? Regards,

Dear Elizabeth, 1. In Feng Shui, the front door especially at the frontage is considered the mouth of the house. 2. Primarily, this location should have clear space. 3. Thus, in my opinion, it does not matter if one place a fs turtle at this location. The main thing to avoid is to make sure that the front door is `protected' from sharp corners of other buildings or lone lamp posts that could `slice' thru the main door. Equally important is to avoid any objects with its mouth opened facing the main entrance area. 4. Even if the north = water element does not matter since this is the front area. Purchasing a `fs turtle' in my opinion, is just a decorative item... in such a …

Dear Marko, Frankly, I was thinking very hard about your senario. Since it is a shared wall and not a house or frontage facing each other; in my opinion, there is not much one can do here. A Metal `cure' is used usually, if there is an imbalance e.g. on the shared wall of your bedroom. Otherwise, it is not normally used. As for Feng Shui, it is correct that one should avoid placement of plants or water fountain in the bedroom. Warmest Regards, Cecil

Dear Terry, Terry Yuen wrote: My house is having the a stretch of windows alongside inthe whole side of my Living Room wall. Death, Irritation, Disaster direction. Actually, the most important factor for eight house application is for:- 1. Ensure that the breadwinner (I presume yourself), has a suitable house facing direction ie if North is your facing and it falls under your death, irritation direction that it is deemed unsuitable for you home.So in long run, the solution to get a quantum leap is to move to a more suitable house etc. 2. The next important thing you use this concept is to locate the best room for you to sleep or work in. It should be a room that falls …

Dear Anon, 1. A mountain star should not be activated in the centre of a room. A certain of a room should have clear space. 2. A mountain star cannot apply as and when we want it to. It has to be `found' and if there is a mountain star applied under certain conditions such as: - A backdoor or in a room. 3. No a ceiling fan (moving blades) even with a external decorative cover at the middle (with the magnetic coils) at the centre cannot be considered a mountain star. Warmest Regards, Cecil

Dear Anon, 1. If you have the opportunity to avail yourself to the services of a Feng Shui practitioner onsite, much the better. Since you are building a new house, many considerations need to be considered. Other important considerations, is that the Feng Shui consultant can advise you on the best date for `starting' the work. 2. There are lots of considerations to be made and a trained eye would be a better choice. Please see below:- There are a few considerations here: 1. Where possible, the house should be suitable to the breadwinner. The Eight House can be used generally to check how suitable the house is to the breadwinner. Where possible avoid the death or disa…

Dear Michael, Currently, it is pre-mature for me to confirm which is correct. 1. Overall, Red is considered an auspicious colour). However, (red) doors are featured predominantly in many Chinese buildings (especially guarded with the two lion figurines on either side of the main entrance. Therefore, since this is considered an auspiciuos colour - to some people it means wealth or being prosperous and lucky. 2. Red is considered the most Yang of all the colours and represents the fire element. This is perhaps why some consider it `anger' as fire can mean `flaring up of temper' etc... 3. Therefore, in each case e.g. colour of red signifies prosperity while on the other hand…

Dear Max, 1. Typically, the design of a commercial building is influenced by the kind of tenants or tenant mix it attracts, along with other elements such as the nature of the business. 2. When it comes to purely office spaces, I think this isn't a concern. However, for retail establishments, their success hinges on various business factors, such as foot traffic, among others. 3. As long as the office is not in a remote or hard-to-reach area, and if numerous tenants occupy the office space, I believe there shouldn't be any problems. 4. For residential properties, many people would logically prefer to be situated further away from noise, as well as from…

Dear Chloe Lin, In my opinion, bringing in items on the chosen auspicious day varies with different dialect groups. Overall in my opinion; you can see if some of the items can be available to you (and some perhaps - optional). Prior to the auspicious day; one can consider buying the following:- 1. One packet of rice (5 Kg) is OK. Not necessary the 10 kg bag. 2. One packet of sugar. 3. One packet of salt. 4. For the Hokkiens; they would buy a pineapple with the flower intact on the top. A pineapple to them signify: " ONG " or LUCK. (Optional) 5. " Huat Quay " or a cake which is baked by adding e.g. coca cola or 7 up so that when it is baked it becomes `full' at the top. …

Dear Anon, Anonymous wrote: In this ever slowing real estate sale of houses in south west Florida, USA, I am wondering if there is anything that I can do to bring a buying to purchase my house. House faces due North. Unfortunately, Feng Shui is not a miracle cure for all problems.

The other thing you can do is attempt to improve your own personal ba zi luck so that your overall luck will be boosted. This way, it may help you get a buyer that is interested in your home.

Dear Elena, No, one of the conditions is that it must have a backing e.g. a solid wall. A moutain star cannot be activated at the centre of the house. Warmest Regards, Cecil

Dear Doreen, 1. Based on the Eight House Theory, this implies that the house is not the best suited for you and your husband. 2. Usually, this is not the "end of the world". 3. You should also consider the intangible force affecting both of you in the bedroom. If possible, the person with the more auspicious intangible force sleeps closer to the direction and the other spouse sleeps on the opposite site (shielded by the spouse). 4. It is best to keep the main entrance area `bright' and natural lighting (if possible).

Dear Hiii, The origin of this has more to do with commonsense than Feng Shui as traditional Chinese homes do not have a bedroom above the kitchen. (Especially if the is built on wooden material). Therefore, this is more of a commonsense that has been added to Feng Shui in modern times. As we are aware, fire moves or spread upwards or thru an opening e.g. windows. Which may reach the upper floors. Here, it would make more sense to `invest' in smoke detectors i.e. in the kitchen (which should be loud enough) to warn anyone staying in the home. If need be, the room above, or passage way leading towards the room could also be installed with fire detectors / and a handy fire e…

Dear Anon, Please see below:- Today, there are still some developers who had folded up. This is not just in Malaysia or in Singapore. A few months back, this developer had uncompleted development and it has become a breeding ground for mosqitoes. Therefore, any land, that has both good or bad Feng Shui, can come down with such a situation. Often, it is sheer `bad luck' which is attributed to the most common situation: downturn in business, leading to cash flow problems for such a developer. Why not, if an experienced FS practitioner finds that the land is OK. A towkay (rich man) may eventually, buy over this land. Hopefully, at a much lower price - due to forced sale…

Dear Anon, Currently, the best units atGardens are those facing the main gate (pool) such as Blocks 3 or 7. These blocks are not affected by the temple. For example, the units under these blocks (facing Sin Ming Walk) are NE facing and very auspicious under current Flying star. If possible, avoid Block 1. And Block 9 (Winter) because of the afternoon sun. Warmest Regards, Cecil
