Dear Emma, Hope you can further elaborate. Are you referring to the number 2 after doing a Flying Star chart and you have a 2 influence at a specific location. Or are you referring to your address 2110. This is because " house numbering " method to see if a house is auspicious or inauspicious is not a good method of checking a house's birth chart. This is because, today, many Professional Feng Shui Masters use the Flying Star Analysis to find out e.g. the 2 or 5 bad stars are and if they had combined together in a location. Here, the difference, we cannot just look at the house number and come to some `conclusion'. But rather, combine the two schools of Feng Shui e.g. Sha…

Dear Siu Wong, Please see below:- -----Original Message----- From: Listmanager To: Recipients of 'free-advice' suppressed suppressed> Date: Wednesday, April 14, 1999 6:16 PM Subject: Feng shui in the bedroom Frankly, the application of Feng Shui in the past was focused more on macro level e.g. the situation of an entire city etc... Only nowadays, as Feng Shui became `more lucrative' or we would like to be `comforted' by the thoughts that where we spent our time or at a specific location, could help us in our studies. For the young, especially those who are studying, my feeling is that it really does not matter i.e. to follow ad…

Dear Garance, There are three Feng Shui emporiums in "The Feng Shui Awards" Page. If you have the time, check out these emporiums. I have a link at this URL: http://www.geomancy.net/fs/award.htm I am sure, you can find your Luo Pan. I am not mistaken, in the above award page, check out " Roger Green's" site, in the past, I remember him selling an English version but I remembered it was quite expensive at $4xx.00USD (Cannot really remember this). Alternatively, you can buy a Plastic Feng Shui kit by Kwok Man Ho, I have a link in the books section i.e. http://www.geomancy.net/books/fs.htm Another alternative is to get the book Feng Shui by Derek Walters.

Dear Jody, I feel that currently, because of the small size of the tree, it will not pose too much of a `threat' to the house. At this stage of growth (of the tree), you may seriously want to consider, replanting it away from your main entrance area as it will one day bound to grow bigger. Although it is not a `threat' today, but it will be one day. When it grows taller, and if you do not decide to re-plant it, then I suggest, you may have to consider a `cure'. For example, placing a semi-circular carpet at the main entrance door area radiating outwards.

Dear Elizabeth, As a guideline:- 1. The aquarium, most not be placed at the centre-point of the house. 2. Preferable that it should not be placed in the dining room. As you mentioned, it is acceptable to place the aquarium in the family room and on the `surface' it looks a sensible location to be placed. Where possible, if your house has an `L' shape configuration, symbolically, or through use of partition to `change' it to a square or rectangle shaped. This configuration is still the best.

Moderator's Note: The reply to this is under " More Grand Duke Questions" Hi. I see there's questions about construction in the East. My question is: Would there be any ill effects from tearing out flower beds in the W and SW, and building a raised bed in the NE this year? The earth *would* be disturbed by putting in rebar to hold the timbers down in the NE and taking out rebar in the W and SW. If there is the possibility of ill effects, it would definitely be worth waiting until next year. Your input is very much appreciated. Thanks, julie

Dear Carol, So far, Feng Shui has not come to the dogs yet. In the olden days, priority of Feng Shui goes to searching a site for a community e.g. a large city. This would also apply to a site or a building or a home. Therefore, in the past the emphasis of Feng Shui is not like what we are doing, looking for `cures'. As for pet dogs, there is currently no mention of this anywhere on the best place to place them in cages. I guess dogs used to roam around and the Chinese (unfortunately) enjoy eating them. (I hope this statement is not offensive or replusive, as I do not mean any harm. If so, I sincerely apologise as I am stating the fact of life that some Chinese people do …

Dear Carol, The correct method is the head should be facing the good direction. For example in your case, if North is auspicious. you should have your head facing North.

Dear Jon, For plants, it is acceptable to have plants in or outside the home. The important thing to remember are:- 1. Avoid having a lone large tree in the front of the house. 2. For plants, avoid too many plants at the North East (Devil's Gate), West (Yin location) and South West (Devil's Backdoor). The reason for the above is that too many plants especially large plants create too `yin' an environment. This may create an imbalance in the surrounding and attract `spirits' to stay at the location. Another point to note is to keep the plants `neat' and `trim'. For other locations, it is also good not to have too many plants concentrated at a location also. In your case,…

Dear Luna, Yes, a water element in the position you had mentioned symbolically means `illicit affairs' and for a wife, it would not be advantageous to have a water position on the right side of the main entrance door. It is acceptable to have the aquarium instead at the South East corner which is the `wood element' area.

Dear Jenna, Thank you for bringing up a rather interesting question. Let me first elaborate that in the past, especially in China, toilets was never `attached' to the house. It is usually situtated a distance away from the house. However, in our modern society, this is no longer possible. Like the concept of the toilet, litter bins or boxes should preferably have a lid and closed when not in use. It should be emptied regularly. Where possible, use trash bags to contain fluids or liquid waste or drained away. The purpose of the lid is to keep any animals from scavaging the litter bins. It is acceptable practice to keep the bin below the sink (for those who have an electric…

Please see below:- -----Original Message----- From: Listmanager To: Recipients of 'free-advice' suppressed suppressed> Date: Monday, April 05, 1999 9:40 AM Subject: bedroom The characteristics of having two doors facing each other is that there will be a tendency for the two parties living in room 1 and say the master bedroom to have `frequent' disagreements or quarrels. As you have mentioned that both rooms have double doors, this can easily be solved (provided you are able to open only one side of the door and each is opposite / diagonal) t…

Dear Luna, Currently there are two methods at looking at the number of fishes to `rear'. Method 1: ======== The most common method is based on general good numbers of fish i.e. fishes should be numbering e.g. 5, 6, 8. (9 is still acceptable). Method 2: ======== The other method is based on your kua number ie. if your kua is Li or South, you should rear 9 fishes. If your Kua number is Kan (North), you should rear 1 fish, if your Kua number is Chen or East, then you should rear 3 fishes. Ideally, this is based on the breadwinner's Kua number Conclusion ========= Frankly, the easiest method is to follow ` Method 1' especially if you have a large family and especially, the fi…
