1. One has to differentiate the type of "water position" in a home or bedroom. 2. If the water position is one of those fountains or even fish tank; then this is not advisable. 3. The most utopian water "position" is actually a water fall. Here, natural water frictions with the air to create negative ions. 4. Today, air-purifiers generally consists of TWO main categories; 4.1. Air-cleaners (air-purifiers). And often, the better brands are graded as "Hospital grade" and some of the well know brands are Honeywell and Sharp. Many of such air-purifiers use an external layer of charcoal sheet and an internal air-filter. That can almost filter out 99.999% germs. And even pollen…

In my opinion, if it is a of "normal" size, home air purifier, this should not be an issue. Quote: Theresa K. wrote: Will it be alright to put a water ( air purifier) in a bedroom ? However I am not sleeping in that room.

Dear Susan, Since the house belongs to your father, then it would be appropriate for you to `change' house. You have indicated that you have several problems. We would be most happy to provide you with free paid reports specific to your problem if you can let us know in what area are the problems. For example: If it is relationship problems, we could provide you with the number of Pillars of Destiny reports - in relation to the number of persons you are trying to resolve the problem. If it is frequent sickness/misfortune or finance, Flying Star can help. But, you may have to do some home work e.g. take the compass reading. However, if it is analysing the home, you must ha…

Dear Miss Quiss, 1. Not all situations are the same as it also depends on the layout of the house especially since you mentioned that there is an `east' wall immediately backing the fish tank. 2. If you have placed the fish tank for quite some time i.e. more than 3 months without any effect i.e. particularly sickness for the spouse; and/or finance keepings going out. If one does not face difficulties as mentioned under Para 2, this is fine. Warmest Regards, Cecil

Dear Johnny, In my opinion, two concepts are applied in your case: 1. If it cannot be seen, it no longer becomes a "threat". For example, for a threat, once it cannot be seen it no longer becomes a threat. 2. Although the `water' is not a real threat, the above concept can be applied here. 3. So far, I have yet come across a problem with water beds. 4. Concept 2: Since the water is encased, unlike gases, that evaporates, it would not be considered Sha Qi as those e.g. dangers of underground water i.e. http://www.geomancy.net/fs/under.htm 5. In the case of a fish tank, the water is not covered up and it can evaporate etc... The water is also in full view.. Warmest Regards,…

Hi, Frankly so far, I don't think there is anything written in the past (nor the present) on the use of water beds and metal beds. As I mentioned in a few forum messages that the original use of Feng Shui caters more towards Feng Shui Masters locating a site for a city e.g. Canton or many other Chinese Cities. Following this, their concern is with a site within a city and perhaps an overall location of a village. The closes to the bed is the use of the Shapes and Form School of Feng Shui and the use of Compass School techniques such as the Eight House and the Flying Star. What does all this mean? Feng Shui is all about trying to enhance beneifical qi or to neutralise Sha …

These are some considerations: 1. There are often four major considerations if one wants to place a water body somewhere:- 1.1. Trial and error: Some people, and based on their feelings felt that a water feature at a certain location would be good for them. 1.2. Flying Star Feng Shui: Need to plot a flying star chart and detect where is the water position. And place a water feature if that location is appropriate e.g. in the living room area or clear space area. And not the toilet. 1.3. Frontage of the garden. In past forum messages, I had mentioned that of all places in a home; often 60 to 70 percent of the time, even if one does not look at Feng Shui, any water position…

Dear Kaushal, #2 = earth #3 = wood In my opinion, it would not be a good idea to use water i.e. a bowl of water as water will enhance #3 or wood. My advise is to use a METAL cure. Here METAL does wonder to neutralising #2 and #3. There are many METAL cures already mentioned in this website. My `favourite' is the use of 6 metal coins. As it has few or little hiccup's associated with some other cures like wind chimes. But cures such as 6 rod hollow wind chimes (may be used) or the use of a pendulum brass/metal clock with it's tick-tock effect are acceptable. Warmest Regards, Cecil

Dear Yew-Meng, 1. Further to what I had mentioned earlier, one reader had recently wrote something like this:- " I cannot see the resemblance of roads as equal to water courses ". 2. It is good to bear in mind what the above user had wrote. 3. It is not often or that every other house has large water positions around their homes. And for this reason, and the fact that as the above user had correctly questioned whether can we treat all roads as equvalent to water courses? Like any other Shapes and Form, each home or building has to be looked at individually. And something as `fantastic' as Water Dragon Feng Shui may seem out-of-place if there are really no real water at…

Dear Sal, 1. Size of fountains are important. Equally important is the sound of vibrant water flow. If the fountain is just a `tiny' fountain of no less than 3 feet or 1 metre in length, it should be considered more a decorative piece where one would have to fork out money like any other decoration. When we talk about fountains or waterfalls (real or artificial) they should equally be vibrant i.e. sound of water and not just water flowing gently. Here, one should consider such fountains as mere decorative piece of `art'. For dragon figurines if it is on a fountain, it is best to let if face outwards of the home. Dragons should not face into the house. Dragon `qi' usuall…

Dear Anon, Under the water classics, what you have done is correct. For example, for a landed property, one of the things we look out for is the drainage running within the compound of the home/land. For example, it is acceptable to see water flowing into the home. But at the point of water exiting the home, it is covered up or not seen. You have placed two planks similar to the above concept of covering the drain. If you cannot see someone coming into an office, one can place a small mirror on your workarea to improve on the blindspot of your home. Warmest Regards, Cecil

Thank you for quick response. I will try to forward a file, but the large body of water is N and NW, behind house. It is bigger than a bay of water. Thanks again.

Dear Kelvin, Kelvin Goh wrote: Is import & export and sub letting of wholesale centre a water element career? Inmport and Exporting in general transport related, so Wood element. Sub-letting of wholesale centre is similiar to rental so Earth element. So it is a mixed of Wood and Earth element. Kelvin Goh wrote: What is the full lists of Water Element Career? Frankly, it is impossible to create a comprehensive career list because there are simply too many types of career. We only have a key sample of career breakdown:- URL: http://talk.geomancy.net Based on that, you will aready be able to classify most careers. Hope that helps. Warmest Regards Robert Lee GEOMAN…

Dear Andy, In the past, no one has ever heard of such a thing or even products using the Feng Shui name. For example, nowadays, many are ripping off others by using terms like "Feng Shui jewelery". It's the blackhole effect. What happens is that if we purchase such products, our pocket(s) will have a huge deep dark hole. And mostly, the seller benefits from this sale! For many Chinese, let's imagine or go back to our grand-parent's time or for many, our parents home. There are no such things prior to 1970's as Feng Shui crystals nor is it common place to find three-legged toads. In the past, it is widely common to find more popular stones such as jade and diamonds. But…

Dear Marie, 1. Thank you for your sketch. However, I cannot really see the octagonal shape especially several of the lines were broken. 2. There are two dimensions in order to have a clear picture:- a. Shapes and Forms b. Flying Star 3. Under the Flying Star, usually if your house was born between 1984 to 2003; the centrepoint has current prosperity. However, in some of the layouts; there can be metal elements such as weak #7 detected there or a combination of #7 with #1. 4. If the centre grid or pie chart already as #7 with #1 this implies that there is already a virtual #7 metal with #1 water. And not necessary to have real water. 5. In addition if you are staying in a…

1. In general, based on the general concept of water in Feng Shui; for majority of homes other than those that have been determined to have UP mountain (or frontage having mountain position); 2. Generally, water feature at most sites and home's frontage are generally acceptable. 3. The only concern in water Feng Shui principles is the difference between digging a hole to place water e.g. a dug up area in the garden to place a pond. Here, if there is a mountain star #8 at the sector; this is very inauspicious; as it is like digging a hole; place water to DROWN the mountain. 4. Generally, the safest bet if one is igorant of Flying Star numbers is to simply install a water …

Dear Jeanette, A key success factor is to apply Flying Star Feng Shui. This is because under Flying star Feng Shui, if one can rightly activate the correct locations, this would be beneficial. On the contrary, activating the wrong sectors may bring worse consequence. For example, under Flying Star, if the water star #8 happens to be in a specific location at the living room, this would be very favourable for wealth. However, under Period 8, there are three distinctive numbers and their significance under Flying Star:- #8 = current prosperity. Here, there are two stars : the mountain MS#8 represents relationship/lottery luck; while WS#8 represents water wealth positi…

Dear Anon, Anonymous wrote: 1. Is adding a men-made waterfall at northern house corner which is at left hand side of main door auspicious? Without doing a detailed analysis of your home, there is no way anyone can advise you whether it is good or not. This is only a free advise forum, as such I can only give you some guide to follow. If the flying star sector of your home at the Northern House corner, contains the auspicious Water star , then you can activate your auspicious water star with the water feature. You need to determine what is your current flying star ie period 7 or period 8. Period 7, then activating water star 7 or 8 will be favourable for you. If your hom…

These are the following assumptions:- 1. As you had not mentioned the birth chart of the apartment: if it is a Period 7: 1984 to 2003; then:- 1.1 It is disadvantages to place a water feature atyour proposed location markedin RED as "C". Depending on whether it is aSW2 or NE2 facing direction, a water feature, there may inadvertently inflame a star #3 at that sector. 1.2Especially ifit is a SW2 facing direction, then the water wealth is at marking "A". While marking B is suppose to be theauspicious indirectauspicious water wealth spirit sector. 1.3 WARNING or NOTE: 1.3.1 If the apartment is a Period 8, NE2, then best to avoid a water feature at Marking "A". Whil…

Dear Vun Fook, Earlier, on my reply on the white-tiger location, yes, besides the compass direction of West, SW etc...: another major consideration is the Flying Star chart of that specific location. I have just scanned thru your message, but did not fully understand it. But for the star chart of 5ms 2 ws and 7, yes, with such a combination, a third element water is useful here. Under the Five elements concept: Earth -> Metal -> Water Since #5 and #2 are bad earth; Metal can help to draw out some of these earth. But not enough. In fact, this location should have `more metal' to help to further balance #5 and #2. A double edged sword is #7 weak earth. During this cur…

Dear Weiqi, Shapes and Forms Feng Shui:- Yes, if possible, it is best to avoid having a water position at the centrepoint of the home - as this may affect one's finance. (Shapes and Forms consideration. Flying Star Feng Shui:- This is especially so for Period 8 homes or homes born, or had a major renovation done on or after 2004. Under Flying star Feng Shui, the base star at the centre-of-the-home is #8. And since this is an auspicious mountain star "earth" element: a water position, here will inevitably drown the auspicious #8 for the period. Warmest Regards, Cecil

Dear Fran, At a location which you had described i.e. mountain #8 with water #8, then this is known as a double #8. And under Period 8, this is considered an auspicious combination: 1. Virtual water In certain situations, for one reason or another, some may not be able to activate water at this specific location. For example, if this is the front door and on the exterior, it could be a lobby shared with other subsidiary proprietors or tenants. Here, since the main entrance is at the frontage with double #8's no real water - is acceptable. 2. If one stays in a landed property, one can have a pond, as you had mentioned, right in front of the house. Ideally, the water …
