General Help

Dear Master Cecil: With respect to this particular problem; i.e. the bathroom is close to the center influence of my home, do you think what I have done has reduced the adverse impact somewhat? By the way, I am in the U.S. and this is a rather new house. Therefore, it is a good looking bathroom with quality fixtures and floor. This bathroom has never been used and I deliberately keep it as presentable as living room. The smell in this bathroom is better than any other room in my house. Of course, I will identify other leakages of my house. I am going to take care of all other possible problems one by one. Do I have to do more with this particular bathroom, such as complet…

Dear Anon, If there is a WC in there, then, it should be considered as a toilet at the center-point. Warmest Regards, Cecil

Dear Anon, 1. A reasonable question asked is: ?Is this the only leak found in your home?" 2. Often, from my past experience, there is not just one leak (major) but several major leaks. Thus, in my opinion, taking this approach alone is too `simplistic' method. For example, if we try to `cover-our-backside'; it does not mean that our woes or problem may go away. In fact, we have protected our front-part which can be very vulnerable. Thus, we can still continue to be a " Virtual Eunuch "; even if we chopped down a tree. But it is an important step, nevertheless, if it poses or act as a poison arrow. Warmest Regards, Cecil

Dear Hoa Luong, The report you generated is for the 20 year Flying Star for period 7. However, the Year 2003 report is based on this year, thus the difference. One should look at the 20 year Flying Star numbers first and relate it to (any additional adverse stars of the Year 2003) which may make the sector worse-off. For example, for a South-West house at 240 degrees, the 20 year Flying Star for Period 7 are as follows:- #3 mountain #2 water with base #5 and Year 4 while for North is #5 mountain with #9 water and base #3. And Year 2. In such a situation, for such a house; Year 2 flew into the North and made the sector worse-off! This is how, we relate the Year i.e. 2003…

Dear Cecil, Thank you for your prompt reply. My query is about sitting with my back facing a window. However, the Item 1 in your reply mentioned "sitting with our back against a wall". I hope it is a typo error and not a wrong interpretation. Please confirm Thanks & Best Regards szetong

Never buy a house with a toilet located at the center influence of the home. The center of the house is where all the flux of energy comes together. And if the toilet is located at the center of the home. Your wealth will leak out of the home. This will result in the family facing financial difficulties.

Dear Alan, If it is a major renovation, your house would change it's birth chart. And Period 7, seems a sensible idea. Warmest Regards, Cecil

Dear David, A person's favourable element is never just one element. A Strong Fire has 3 different favourable elements:- 1. Earth (yellow) 2. Water (blue/black/gray) 3. Metal (white/gold) also known as the wealth element. So in fact you can use any of the above 3 different elements in different parts of your life to enhance your luck. Even for your Five Element, there are different percentage for each element so sometimes certain element that you have too much you do not want to have too much more, instead it is often better to have a balance element. ie. 5 element each broken in percentage whereby all elements should try to achieve 20%. So those, which you have too much …

Dear David, 1. We all must understand that Feng Shui is not a `cure' all. 2. In my opinion, Great Feng Shui practitioners in the past try to apply Feng Shui that works for most people, most of the time. 3. Nowadays, it is sad that many Feng Shui practitioners use concepts like `wealth corner' etc... 4. For example, many Feng Shui practitioners will advise us that `X' is the location of the wealth corner. And when we follow their advise; it does not work. And, when we ask the practitioner, often, the answer is that `you must' have not done it right. 5. I can sum up that such Feng Shui practitioners are really not truly apply Feng Shui but rather, baised towards: Human or m…

Dear Anon, Based on past precedence (experience); the only areas that one can apply FS to a small studio apartment is:- 1. Commonsense approach Minimize clutter. This may be hardest but, it does make commonsense:) 2. Yin and Yang concept Look at your life-style: Are you the type that uses your bedroom for sleep or work/study cum sleep? If you make your room solely more for sleep (rest), than create a more cozy home. If you often do your work at home, than, make sure that there is a specific location, where you have your study/work location. Have everything placed neatly for this activity close-by. Often, the ideal choice is to place this study/work location, close to a -…

Dear Anon, 1. I would take it as a `belief' or symbolism, then Feng Shui. 2. Often, we hear the term, if you are the `boss' one should behave like one. Thus, if one is the owner of the house, often, it is the belief that the owner (breadwinner) should occupy the master bedroom. 3. In my opinion, your question has few precedence or not common to many households. Thus, your guess is good as mine! 4. Often, under `commonsense approach' it is best to occupy any room (other than the store). This is because, if we do close the door of a room too long, it may have `stale air' or stagnant qi. 5. If the is closed entirely for a week or more, air in the room may progress to `suffo…

Dear Anon, Please see below:- In my opinion, you should consider the House as a East House (E2 with the following range 67.5 to 82.4 degrees). Often, this location is analysed more on Shapes and Forms in relation to the cul-de-sac. As you cannot provide a sketch of the cul-de-sac vis-a-vis; your home layout, the fencing, the main gate etc.., it is difficult for me to make further comments. The four good/bad sectors are influenced based on the interior layout. In your home, more importantly, understanding the fence, gate (gate-way) and where your home is within this cul-de-sac will help further. Warmest Regards, Cecil

Dear Anon, 1. I am afraid, this is another marketing gimmick. Although, it may sound authentic, but unfortunately, this is too general to be of any use to anyone. 2. For example, lets say, everyone in this forum, hears of this and go buy one. And given that the odds are stacked against a gambler, mathematically (probability), it would only a few can win. 3. Going forward, it is truly hard to imagine; that if 1,000 users in this forum do so; how many can win? 4. It would not be good enough that 1 person has won but the remainer 100,000 folks out there which tried it will work. It is beyond comprehension, how it can help us. We all can guess who will be richer i.e. the pers…

Dear Raja, 1. Let me share with you my personal experience on laughing Buddha and all sorts of crystals... 2. I personally feel that these should be treated merely as decorative items. 3. Typically, in Singapore, especially those who are Chinese, mandarin educated, staying in three room apartments and some four room (government housing), do have such figurines in their homes. Often, they not only have one laughing buddha, but often even two, a coin bank or even the three-legged toad. Plus often, at least a fish tank. And often, they would have stayed in the home for more than 8 or more years with little progress. 4. Imagine, already, their flat is cluttered, adding more …

Dear Anon, In a recent upgrade of the Members Area, the Free flying star analysis report on the website is no longer limited in anyway. Although, the support for it will still be limited. As we do not have the time to explain to each user who post us the full chart and expect us to explain it. A full version is already available which does a comprehensive analysis, where Cecil and myself can then focus not on the calculation but rather the actual application of the report. The free report will then allow you to make your own conclusion on your house. Hope that helps. Warmest Regards Robert Lee

Dear Master/Masters, I have problems concentrating during my studies and often does not feel like doing any work nor studies despite the fact that I like the course I'm doing now. My study table is beside my window and have a wooden shelf next to my table. Both of them are facing my bed while I have a full mirror behind my bed. I consider my room extremely packed and I do not have anymore spaces to shift my current furnitures around. I need advice to improve my concentration and buck up my spirits in terms of my studies. Thank you.

Dear Utpal, It is best to check the specific Flying Star chart of your home. For example: Senario 1 - Main door at West 2 or 270 degrees. The Flying star chart for South is as follows: The house is a Period 7 house. And it has the following stars: 1 mountain 5 water 2 base And as you had mentioned, there is a year 1. In such a home, South sector is plagued with two very bad earth elements: #5 misfortune, sickness and #2 sickness. And these are earth elements. If the material of your horses has a large earth content, then, it may not be favourable here. Overall, the only reasonable implied use of horse in Feng Shui is for `success' or to compete for success. This is where…

Dear Wasis, 1. In my opinion, so far, there are no long term or even short term studies done on this area. 2. I personally feel that there is no harm in doing so; it is really up to homeowner. For example, talking clocks, cuckoo clocks and clocks that chime every hour have been around for quite sometime. 3. Therefore, if it makes one comfortable and secure, this has more to do with Ren cai (man luck) than Feng Shui. Warmest Regards, Cecil
