This position of the sink is generally OK. As the most important consideration is the stove, first.

Frankly, this is not necessary.

1. Usually this is not a major concern unless the WC pipes are directly opposite (behind) the stove and vice-versa. Otherwise, there is no major concern or issue. 2. Under Traditional Feng Shui, some Feng Shui practitioners (symbolism) may advice placing a hulu (bottle gourd) e.g. inside the kitchen cabinet between the two walls. Anonymous wrote: Please help. My kitchen shares the same wall as the bathroom, and the stove shares the same wall back to back with the toilet. I know it's totally bad, and what can I do to minimize the damage? Thanks!!

1. Overall, under Period 8, the better neutral colour that you may consider is light cream or beige. 2. Under Period 7 (1984 to 2003), the best neutral colour was white. Today, 2008, the best neutral colour is as mentioned under Para 1.

1. Under Commonsense Feng Shui, definitely, it is considered not ideal to have the master bedroom directly above the kitchen. As it is believed that there is a higher incidence of a "fire" starting in a kitchen. Thus, this has more to do with "safety" aspect than of Feng Shui. However, in modern times, things like smoke detectors / fire alarm sensors / panels maybe in the master bedroom can help in such a situation. As fire travels upwards and such things can help. 2. Under Symbolic Feng Shui:- 2.1. Yes, the stove direclty below the toilet bowl is a major concern. Often, again one aspect is based on commonsense Feng Shui as often the sewerage pipe is thus directly above…

1. Frankly, this is not directly linked to any major Feng Shui theory, other than perhaps symbolism and human luck factors. 2. Under symbolism, of course, water draining out is like luck going out of the door. And if one feels not too good with this "omen" then, your human luck factor drops further.

Honestly, you may to use some of the following key success factors in maximizing the luck of your home:- http://wiki.geomancy.net/wiki/Main_Page#Key_Success_Factors_in_D.I.Y._Feng_Shui

1. After a home has been built, it is much harder to change the location especially of the sewerage pipe connected to both your WC. 2. Of course, if a proper Feng Shui analysis has been done; normally, it would be recommended not to have both the WC's on each side of the main entrance door. But, after the home has been built, either have to live with it or do corrective actions. 3. Corrective actions may not be needed if there are no further "wealth leaks" in the home. And some homes can still sustain toilet(s) at the frontage and still survive. While some homes may face problems especially related to both wealth and career issues. 4. The second issue of the "top" o…

1. Frankly, it is best to check with your friend further as it is difficult for me to comment on just a few sentences. 2. However, often tilting if it is the main door can only be temporary - unlike tilting the entire home say 7.5 degrees towards another facing direction. 3. Thus, since your friend is in the know, best to check with him further. 4. If you are or your friend is based his advise to "tlit" based on Compass School of Feng Shui, then, make sure that the exact compass readings are taken. I hope it is not like a novice taking a compass reading and then finding that it is "wrong". There are proper ways to take a reading and it should be adhered to.

1. Frankly, what you are asking is : I post this layout with my compass direction and you tell me where is it best for me to place a water feature. 2. Please note that this is a Free General Advise forum. 3. Your layout and compass directions are so specific to your case only. 4. Little wonder that no matter which website you try to find your answers, it has to be tailored to your layout and specific compass direction. There is no two ways about. 5. Imagine, if everyone post a layout plan, and expect specific answers... this is not the agenda of this forum. (Newbie or no newbie. There are other avenues including finding your Feng Shui practitioner - if you want t…

The scope of Chinese Metaphyics is based on the holy trinity of luck:- a. Born with (ba zi) The ba zi or commonly known as Four Pillars or Pillars of destiny has its own tools which include things like : when is your romance period (and how good or how bad it is), your personal compatiblity, your luck and destiny. b. Feng Shui (home & office) In general, it affects your general wealth luck and sometimes, romance luck can be looked at and fine tuned. For example, certain homes have bad Shapes and Forms that can affect romance luck. While applying Flying star can detect and help to properly cure bad stars like #3 (romance, lawsuits, entanglements etc..). c. Human o…

Since it is often not possible to change the location of a toilet (if any), then you have to maximize luck from elsewhere. Anonymous wrote: Is it consider bad feng shui if the toilet is located in the North-West direction? If yes, what can be done to improve the feng shui? Thank you very much for your attention.

Whenever one feels uncomfortable, if possible take it down and relocate it e.g. to another room or keep it in storage or give away.

I have been feeling a bit spooked in that room since the last few days. I hung a shawl on the mirror last night but I was still not to comfortable. What should I do? Is it bad to have a mirror face the bathroom door?

Frankly, the procedures are not rocket science. And majority of the procedures are symbolic of "placing wealth into a new home". Personally, have already assisted many clients at least a few thousands with it. And many others have also DIY on their own. The procedures are non-religious also some clients add additional steps like bringing along their joss sticks or candles and "gold" paper.

It would be better to chart out a Flying Star chart. If so, yes, in general, it may be placed at a MS#9 provided there are no #2 or #5 within that sector. Alternatively, such a light can help to "burn" or neutralise #3.

1. Some say that SW is the romance sector. Thus, it was felt that hanging family photos is acceptable, here. 2. Usually when applying Flying Star Feng Shui, one can further fine tune applying paintings appropriate for that sector. Thus, if that sector has a mountain star then, a "landscape" painting or picture is acceptable. While if it is a water wealth location, then common Chinese paintings include the kok or gold fish paintings. Glass framed paintings if possible should not be hung facing a bedroom door or facing the main entrance d door.

1. Under symbolism in Feng Shui, yes, one has to be careful of angular objects particularly the "tip" especially if it faces or aimed towards a bedroom or an "opening" such as a bedroom door or the main door. 2. Otherwise, in general, it may still be acceptable to place it at common areas - should normally be ok.

Frankly, under the Chinese "system", there is really no precedence on your situation. But feel free to have a "good" feeling about it

1. As this year the #5 misfortune /sickness sector is at North, it is strongly advisable to see if one can delay installation of the grille and windows until (if possible) after Chinese New Year, next year. 2. The #5 has often to do with health issues and sometimes unexpected serious accidents. 3. Hopefully that the compass readings is done correctly as this year also, Grand Duke this year is North-North-East, 30 Degree. Which is very close-by to the North sector. 4. Yes, if you really need to, select a good date for the "dong tu".

1. Usually, both Shapes and Forms Feng Shui and Compass School Feng Shui is used to properly determine whether a location is suitable for the placement of a water feature. 2. Thus, it may or may not be left or right side of the door. 3. Compass School Feng Shui prominently uses Flying Star Feng Shui to detect water wealth location. While Shapes and Forms, has a bit of commonsense, as it would not be practical to have a water feature at the entrance if it blocks or hinders movement in and out of the home. 4. What you are asking is close to "trial and error" or something like - might as well as flip a coin = 5. Thus, Feng Shui is about making an analysis to determin…

Frankly Feng Shui cannot be done by remote control. Thus, you are correct to do a Feng Shui of your condo since primarily this is your abode (home). While the other address is a "depository". In addition, if it ain't broken, don't need to fix it, does apply.

1. Most professional Feng Shui practitioners apply both Shapes and Forms and Compass School Feng Shui. 2. As the name suggests, Compass School Feng Shui needs the "correct" compass direction of a home. And under this school we have the Eight House Theory and the Flying star Feng Shui. 2.1. Once the compass direction of a home is known, the interior chart can be looked at for the 20 year Feng Shui as well as yearly Feng Shui. 3. If one lives in a landed property; there are instances where neighbours move out, resold or renovate their home. Often changes to the neighbourhood would affect the Feng Shui of a landed property. In such a situation, one can still e.g. take pic…

1. Please note that burying a jar of holy water underground is not a traditional Chinese practise. Have we ever wondered what happened after the holy water dried up? 2. The common practises are:- 2.1. Tilting the door to a certain degree OR 2.2. burying a bronze or copper (copper cum bronze) ruler at the main door to deflect the compass bearing especially if the facing direction is at a compass degree that straddles between one compass direction to the next. Commonly known as the zone of "empty - blank - nowhere"

1. Frankly there are a few remedies but they involve some changes or activity. What it tries to achieve is to have the door "protected" from the poison arrow (sha qi). 1.1. Is it possible to relocate the door? Or tilt the door. (It is best that tilting be done by a professional). 1.2 Fencing between the T section and the main door. Or any other landscaping with the use of bushes or plants. Usually best that the actual layout is looked at to further determine if there are any other possible "cures". The last resort or alternative to the ba gua is hanging a six-hollow rod windchime.

1. Ba Zi or Four Pillars is above one's Heaven Luck. 2. Under the Holy Trinity of Luck:- Heaven Luck (born with) = The other two sets of luck are:- Earth Luck & Human Luck Both also accounts each for 33.3333% of luck. 3. Thus, his hope is to either improve both his earth luck and Human Luck. 4. Earth luck can be systematically improved using things like Flying star - to activate certain locations and sectors. For example good mountain stars can be activated for networking and relationship luck. 5. Another category is Human (factor) not so much luck but rather Human opportunties..
