Dear Anon, Anonymous wrote: I have placed a salt & coin in the west sector of the apartment for a month. Initially the water in the jar was milky with lots of bubbles. But recently the water is getting clearer and the salt has evaporated (almost completely). Is this normal? Can anyone please advise what I should do next? Should I change the water & add new raw salt in the jar or start a new salt & coin? Yes, it is normal as the various chemical process has already been used up however, how fast or slow depends on theproportion of the water containersize and number of coins. So, it is best to change it after a few months. Hope that helps. Warmest Regards Rob…

Dear Anon, Anonymous wrote: I do not think of myself as a weak person, however, I have learned that I am a weak Fire. What exactly does this mean? Frankly, a weak person does not mean that person is weakling, nor does a strong person mean you are a strong person. It is just one of the two classification for what element you belong to when you relate yourself to the environment. For example, an element like fire can either be a weak fire or a strong fire. That state basically helps to define what kinds of element is good or bad for you. In turn, once you know this proces, you can easily relate the what careers, what colours, what direction, what people will be consider…

Dear Suat PG, suat PG wrote: I would like to seek your advice on how to neutralise the poison arrow inmy office. You see, I am sitting directly below a sprinkler on the ceiling. The sprinkler is sharp and pointed. Yes, any pointed arrow is considered a poison arrow. However, in feng shui we also have to consider whether is it a big or small threat. Big threat are usually large like a corner of a wall that cuts into you will create a much more larger posion arrow. So this is considered a small threat by comparison. suat PG wrote: Short of changing the position where I sit, which is not possible, what can I do or use to neutralise this?

Dear Anon, Anonymous wrote: I u/stand that this yr 2006, the Grand Duke is at NW 292-307 which happens to be at my living room and I hv told all family members not to sit facing this direction. It is more important that you do not disturb the grand duke by having any major renovation done in this sector as this will immediately disturb him. As for facing him, though it is not advisable to facing him, this has lesser impact than having renovations done. So where possible avoid it, but more importantly avoid any renovation being done in this sector forthis year.

Dear C C, C C wrote: In general:Is both 6th May 2006 and 12th May 2006(Vesak Day) a good day to choose to deliver my BB? If it is for a baby boy, then either 6th or 12th May will be born with a fairly good ba zi luck for the baby. Except for 12th May 9-11pm. If it is for a baby girl, then either 6th or 12th May will be born with an average baby luck for the baby. As mentioned you wanted to know in general, different hours will have different luck and some differences. So I will not be sure unless a more indepth analysis is done.

Dear Anon, Anonymous wrote: Pls advise on which birthdate should we use for all kinds of feng shui calculator ( eg. four pillar, kua, bazi, etc ) - the solar ( as in the birth certificate) or chinese lunar date? The online calculators on our website requires the use of your western/gregorian/solar date and time of birth (as defined in your birth certificate). It will then do the necessary conversion to the chinese lunar calendar for any specific analysis. That is why you will see a western and lunar calendar information at the beginning of the report for you to counter check to ensure that the information are correct. Hope that helps.

Dear Poh Yen Ong, Poh Yen Ong wrote: If my partner and I belong to different categories, does it mean we are not compatible? Poh Yen Ong wrote: E.g I am a "west" person and my partner is "east". How true is it for chinese zodiac compatibility? No, the different eight house type of person does not mean that the two person are incompatible.

Dear Carren, CARREN CHARLES wrote: How do we know the right direction to place a bed? CARREN CHARLES wrote: Says our best direction is west, we are laying on the bed with headboard behind our head: The best way to define the direction is by the positioning of your head and feet. ie say your best direction is West. This means that your head should be pointing West and your feet will be pointing in the opposite direction East. So this menas your headboard will be behind your head at the west. Hope that helps.

Dear Anon, Anonymous wrote: Could you please advice that having three ducks is good or bad. i bought a set of ducks and it had three white ducks in it. I have placed them at the front door. I thought that having a pair is good. Could you suggest that should I throw the third one and what could be the best place to place the ducks. In general, for any animal it is best to have them a pair. It is not auspicious to have 3 as it would be like there is a 3rd odd one out. If you relate it to a relationship, it is like having a 3rd party. So not not really advisable. It is best you either keep the 3rd duck and only display the 2. As to whether to display, this is really u…

Dear Kumar, kumar g wrote: mywife was born on 9 july 1985 . so what will be her age according to chinese calenderas on 10 october 2005 . is it 20 years 3 months or 21 years . Just count her age from the lunar birth date 22 day 5th month 1985 year. The age as on lunar date 10 day 10month 2005 year would be 20 years 3 months. This is usually the best way to count your date based on whether it pass your next lunar birth date. This is the best way to count just like your western birthdate. The reason why there is some who will consider it 21 years, is because they only count by the year. Meaning that though you are born on 22 day 5th month 1985, they will consider that age…

Dear Nevine, nevine al seidi wrote: I am strong wood. This means my colour is green. Should I employ more red and fire element, more and more metal in my home to neutralize my nature? And does this mean I should surround myself with less living plants? I think you are a little confused here. Kua (Eight House) is often used more for most suitable/best facing etc. It is based on year of birth so it is less accurate when you are planning to use for personal analysis. Thus, even though there is a kua element you do not use it as your personal element. Ba Zi charts your luck and true personal element as it uses the day/month/year and even hour of birth. So it is better to …

Dear Anon, Anonymous wrote: I have generated my own free profile and it was sad to see that Luck is Against me from the age of 14 to 74. That's pretty much my whole life. Does that mean that whatever I do that's a big risk, I won't be successful? Will I always just live paycheck to paycheck? I'm an extrememly ambitious person, and I'm always striving for success. It would be great if you can give me some more information about it. Thank you! The 10-year luck only really tell you whether are you considered more of a very forunate person (ie a person born with silver spoon), or a less forunate person (ie. most average person that has to work very hard to make a living).

Dear Balbir, Balbir Anand wrote: What is a good direction for a cooking Range to face in the Kitchen for harmony. In general, the best direction for kitchen should go to who does the most cooking in the house to feed the rest of the family. ie if the wife of the house does most of the cooking, then it is best you have the cooking stove/area face the direction she commonly use.

Hi Robert,

Dear Anon, Anonymous wrote: My bedroom is situated over the garage. This is more a common sense reasoning. It is often considered inauspicious, because usually the garage where the car is kept. As you know the car will have petrol, then when you do work, sometimes you keep the oil or flamable products in the garage. Soshould there be a fire, the bedroomif located on top will be the firsttobe affected.This is similiar to the kitchen. However, what is the probability of a fire starting in the garage, then compared to the kitchen. So this is not really as bad or as inauspicious. A pratical solution would just to install smoke detectors or sprinklers for safety. Anonymous …

Dear Cherry, Cherry Yam wrote: I just rented a house and the kitchen is in the center of the house. My sister told me it's not good. What can I do to cure this? Ideally, the center of the house should be empty if possible. If the kitchen is located there, but the stove is not located at the center of the house, then it is not as bad. If the stove is located at the center point of the house then, nothing much you can really do here except to move out to a better layout. Hope that helps.
