General Help

Dear Anon, 1. In my opinion, there is not much one can do if the `Eight House' chart is unsuitable for a person. Unless, one moves out of the room or find a new house -- assuming a worst case senario. 2. But more importantly, no matter how, the bedroom should always (top-priority) conform to good Shapes and Form Feng Shui. I have given many examples of this in previous messages. 3. For example, where possible, the bed should not rest on the same wall as the bedroom door. Where possible, it should be on the opposite wall as the bedroom door. 4. Usually, to further reduce or minimize on problems, it would be helpful for those who wnat to further improve their Feng Shui to a…

Dear Chee Siong, Please refer to the attached file. I have drawn three Options on how best to place a screen or divider (or divider with cabinet). Please refer below:- You only need to have a divider that covers the full (main door). In many instances, one can use e.g. a semi-circle or rounded edged divider so that it will not become an `arrow'. Alternatively, a screen can also be used. In both situations e.g. the screen and the rounded divider will not pose any problems or create a poison arrow. Warmest Regards, Cecil

Dear Kitty, Please see below:- 1. This refers to the Eight House or 4 good & 4 bad directions. Since there are only the East Group or West Group of persons, 50% of the population will have issues that you face. 2. Statistically; 50% of all partners will have one spouse belonging to the East Group and their partner the West Group. 3. Thus, you are not the only person with this situation. 4. If one is choosing a new house one can follow the following guidelines:- 4.1 Where possible, try to find a house that is suitable to the `breadwinner'. Usually, the definition is that the breadwinner is the `male' of the house e.g. the husband. But what happens if the `female' …

Dear Flannery, Please see below:- In my opinion, it is best not to apply "Sector concepts" as this is too general. For the bathroom in the center of the apartment, is a concern. There is not much that can be done here. If it is feasible, not to use it or keep it bright and dry. My front In my opinion, I would not be too concerned with the `Relationship area'. The staircase over the main entrance is acceptable. So long it is not a toilet - which is inauspicious. There should not be any problem using the main entrance door. Overall, you may consider checking out using the Free Eight House Report to check on how suitable the house is to you and what intangible f…

Further to what I mentioned earlier, there can also be a 6th category i.e. Type 6 - Houses that no human can live in. Fortunately, this type of house is either rare or has been built badly under shapes and forms. Where, one can still stay in the house but may bring calamity to the owners. General example: frontage facing a hill. Or `chopping' off the head of the house to build a new extension. Or a house where on both sides is surrounded by a house on each side. Here, both breadwinner can `die' in the space of 1 year after they have moved in. Note: this type of house is `rarer'. Warmest Regards, Cecil

Dear Anon, Under Eight House theory, there is not much one can do. As this theory is particularly useful to select houses prior to moving in. If it is under Flying Star Feng Shui, this looks at the birth chart of the house. And since it is based on the common denominator i.e. Five Elements Concept, then if any of the sectors are considered `inauspicious' - it can easily be balanced or neutralised. Once this is neutralised under Flying Star, there is not much worry with the sector -- under Flying Star Feng Shui. However, it does not mean that it will automatically `cure' Eight House. Since, the Eight House has more to do with one spending time there. Warmest Regards, Cec…

Dear Anon, Since your problems were related or felt to be related to the fish tank, in my opinion, it is best that you do away with the Fish tank. In Feng Shui, fish tank(s) are often used as a cure and not an enhancer. Enhancers include pretty large fountains etc... Other than the above, some consider rearing fish as a hobby. Under Pillars of Destiny, if one's element is a weak fire or strong water person; then it is best to avoid a fish tank in the home:- 1. It can further extinguish a weak fire person's element. 2. It is not favourable to a strong water person. In the I-Ching, water signifies `difficulty' and it may cause difficulty for some people. Warmest Regards, Ce…

Hello Mr. Lee Thank you for your quick response. I should had mention before that my room observes?good Shapes and Form Feng Shui, including the position of the bed. So what would be the best?direction to place my head to while sleeping? I am waiting for big changes in my life, work and help of authorities in my field of work. Thank you very much for your excellent help. Best Regards, Elda Pacheco

Dear Evelyn, I believe the rationale, here is that the twin goldfish represents the metal element. And metal helps to produce water. In such a situation, it is possible to place the goldfish picture outside the toilet wall - if you want to. Warmest Regards, Cecil

Dear Peck Wun, Since you are considered the breadwinner, it is good for the stove to orientate a good position for the breadwinner. In such a situation, since you are a weak fire person, orientating the stove to the east is a good option for you. Since east facing represents wood element. Where wood element will help fire element to grow. However, it is important to take note of the following:- If your stove is facing east, and if it so happens that your main door is located at west, then, it is best to use stove knobs that face upwards i.e. towards the sky. And avoid having a stove with the knobs at the side of the stove facing west wards. However, if the main door is l…

Dear Wilfredo, In order to confirm; if one is standing at the main entrance door and can see e.g. the tree trunk. Here, the tree trunk is said to be slicing into the main door. If so, then this is a `poison arrow' slicing into a house. This is considered a `Sha Qi' or inauspicious. And should be corrected. But if it is a young tree e.g. within a thin branch or more like a bush; then this will not pose a threat right now. Warmest Regards, Cecil

Dear Anil, Weak earth person is the "reverse" of strong earth. For a weak earth person, it is thus favourable for him/her to have Fire and Earth element. Warmest Regards, Cecil

Dear Wendy, It is good to have the pyramid type roof or `swiss cottage' type of roof. The threat you mention can be neutralised and this is a consideration. Overall, besides the other points I mentioned, if you have the time, use the Eight House template to see which house is best suited for the breadwinner. In particular, it would be better if the main door is not the `death or disaster' sector for the breadwinner. For other family members and the breadwinner, check to see - in particular if the bedroom is suited for each family member - where possible. The other important considerations are the the toilet(s) should preferably not be at the frontage of the house. And if …

Dear Jason, Usually, it would depend greatly on your personal Ba Zi i.e. the position of the main entrance door rather than the position of the garage whether it be at the left or right side. As this changes totally the main door direction. If you like to consider, there is a specific report that we have specifically tailormade to look at Good Houses. This is the Paid Good House Report. And it analyses all 24 directions = 360 degrees and specific to e.g. the breadwinner. In my opinion, this is a worthwhile consideration and the direction of the main door can be an advantage for a new house/and for the owner. Warmest Regards, Cecil Lee

Dear Max, Usually, if there is a missing corner, we can try to redress it e.g. with mirrors etc... However, if a sector is deemed to be an auspicious sector is "occupied" e.g. by a toilet, etc... there is really not much one can do - to improve the situation. Usually, if we consider `sectors' it is but one of many sectors under e.g. a concept. Thus, lets assume that this concept or theory accounts for 20% of the total marks out of 100 marks. Within this 20%, if we divide 20% by 9; this gives 2.2 marks per sector. Thus, each sector only brings in 2.2 marks. Which is considered insignificant when compared to good Shapes and Form Feng Shui. Which can yield 50% of the total 1…

Dear Anon, As there are various concepts and theories that affect this, perhaps, you may have to consider elimination:- For a start: 1. Stand at the main entrance and look out of it. Look for any poison arrow aimed at the main entrance such as a lone lamp post or any sharp objects e.g. neighbour' roof. Do the same for each window. 2. At the frontage of the house, are there lots of doors e.g. a set of main entrance door and many sliding doors. Here, too much doors or windows can make the house out of balanced and caused such problems. The above are two primary concerns under Shapes and Forms Feng Shui. If the above not issues, than, more likely, it could be due to the birt…

Dear Susan, Each house has to be looked at on a case-by-case basis. It depends on the distance of the house e.g. back of the house to the drop off point. And the gradient of this drop off point or slope. Overall, a large land has some advantages. Especially if the back is `spacious' or better off situation. In such a senario, if the proper `fencing' or ability to create a solid backing can be done, this can be acceptable. Therefore, no two houses are the same. It is best in most situations to create a `solid backing' at the back of the house and if possible avoid water positions. Warmest Regards, Cecil

Dear Beth, Thank you for your information about yourself. To be frank, there are two considerations: 1. the office environment, may not be congenial for your type of work or 2. the job may not be suitable for yourself or may not have good support e.g. work companions. Or other aspects relating to other `sciences' such as Human Resource topics of motivation or even organization behaviour type of analysis. So far, Feng Shui is a holistic method and has several key concepts and theories and thus, at this stage it is difficult to pin-point whether Feng Shui can or cannot help in your office. For the office environment, one usually does not have any say as to the layout and ev…

Dear Vivek, Please see below:- Eight House is only one of the many concepts under Feng Shui. In my opinion, the top consideration is the Shapes and Form Feng Shui. If we give a total of 100 marks to Feng Shui, I would say that Shapes and Form Feng Shui can account to between 50 to around 60 percent of the overall luck of the house. For excellent houses, it can even account to 80 to 90 percent of the luck. Here, one do not even need Feng Shui and yet will be very lucky. Thus for an average house, the remainder 40 percent out of a possible 100 marks is allocated between e.g. Flying Star and Eight House Theory. Thus, if assuming Eight House takes 20 percent of the rest…

Dear Anon, In my opinion, this is of secondary importance unless: 1. the toilet is next to the main entrance (at the frontage of the house). 2. or at the center-point of the house. Where one of the toilet wall does not share an external wall. Both cases usually have characteristsics related to financial problems. 3. Otherwise, in most cases, nowadays, it is very common to have an ajoining toilet to the master bedroom. 4. If the toilet door is facing the bed, then symbollically, one can use a table stand with a table lamp. Here, this is symbolic of a `screen' or partition between the bed and the toiet. 5. In addition, even if the toilet bowl is not directly visible, one sh…

Dear Boss Peng, Thanks for the site/lot map. I now have better picture of the lot. In my opinion, this plot `lot 2' is not favourable since, it is downward sloping behind the plot of land and also between the North-West location. If the slope is not properly redressed, usual problem would be the result of financial problems for the breadwinner. If you can try to forgo this plot i.e. lot 2. As I find it inauspicious. Warmest Regards, Cecil

Dear Vivek, Thank you for your words of encouragements. Please see below:- For a weak metal person:- Favourable elements: Earth (yellow) and Metal (whitelgold) Unfavourable elements: Fire (red), water (blue/black/grey) Wealth element: Wood (green or brown). Please take note that for a weak metal person, wood is the wealth element. But caution here! A weak metal person has to FIRST increase the weak metal before, one can take advantage of or use Wood element for wealth. If not, wood will further aggrevate the situation. A weak person must therefore, strengthen their weak metal first. Five elements concept is all about balance. Usually when applying the element a…

Dear Sheila, Appreciate if you can elaborate your question further. The rationale is because: "weak earth/wood snake " realtes to Pillars of Destiny or also known as Ba Zi or Eight Characters. While "5 yellow star" or known as Flying Star #5 - misfortune. Both are different theories. Under Flying Star, " 5 yellow star " can be cured at sectors which are out of balanced in a house. It can easily be cured within a house. Warmest Regards, Cecil

Dear Cecil, Thank you so much for your advise. I will be contacting you to do a feng shui for the new house once I confirmed one. Be the way, could you interpret this house number #12-1054 as the free report wizard did not give any interpretation. Rdgs. Nina
