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…

Hi, Yes. It is preferred that the bedroom door not to be slanted as this is considered inauspicous for the couple. It should be like normal doors. As for the smaller door; the only way is to use a proper Feng Shui ruler, could measure it to see whether the length and breath are auspicious. Warmest Regards, Cecil

1. There is no issue with the bed is in front of the door. 2. You said: If they are put against the window, then they are in burial position, feet facing door." If you are trying to avoid the burial position" then simply don't DO this option (full stop). Not everything has an "effective" remedy. Again: don't do it! Quote: "If the beds are moved to the other side, then they are in front of the door. If they are put against the window, then they are in burial position, feet facing door."

1. In my opinon, what you mentioned is based on this category of Feng Shui: "Symbolism in Feng Shui'. 2. What is considered inauspicious especially when opening the main entrance door; one can see the staircase.(The main implication is that of the staircase leading DOWNWARDS). 3. Here, it implies that wealth is drained away from the main doorand due to gravity, dain downwards towards the staircase and down, down, down. 4. For this very reason, is wheremany seem to believe that it is inauspicious. 5. Of couse, one can argue that a staircase is meant for going up and down. But, the fact that it "flows" down is the mother of all greviances. 6. There is no hard or fast rule. …

Dear Anon, Anonymous wrote: Hi there, can you please tell me how to find the centrepoint in our odd shape house. please see the attached floor plan. Also, I know that a toilet directly facingthe main door is bad. Is there any cure on this? Thanks. 1. Please see the attach layout for the centerpoint. 2. It is not really auspicious, but at least the you cannot see the toilet bowl when the toilet door is left open. So not as bad. Anyway, due to the narrow corridor, not likely much that you can do except to keep the toilet door close when not using it. Hope that helps.

These are some considerations: 1. Glass is considered as belonging to the metal element. 2. I can understand why glass table is popular. As often, some consider it good for small spaces. 3. Actually what you mentioned, has more to do with common sense. Just ask any man; young or old: if a girl with short skirts is sitting facing the person, it is not so much of no good to see people's leg; but rather... what goes further than that! Think about it! 4. It is just like I had mentioned, previously: if one installs a full glass mirror at the dining table; and as most dining tables do not have any courtesy board to cover the leg area, one can also look further thru the legs ..…

Dear Betty, As you mentioned that you since you moved into the house, you became sick. I would suggest that you:- 1. Use the shapes and form school to check your surroundings. However, a cul de sac under Feng Shui is inauspicious. Rather, it should be the `opposite' i.e. an inverted `wok' (Chinese wok). The above is a contributing factor to your sickness. 2. However, you may want to consider using the Flying Star as this would most likely `detect' where the sickness star is in the house. This can be combined with the Eight House to get a clearer picture. Perhaps, if you have not evaluated your house, you may like to get a free Eight House report. The detailed steps is und…

1. Attached is a rough sketch showing that most likely the home is nothing out of the ordinary. 2. Here, LEVEL 1 is often considered as the "ground floor" or level 1. 3. Just because your home has a basement dug in; this does not automatically mean that your Feng Shui "main reception area" or frontage is there. The basement is merely a convenient space to house your car(s) and allow easy entry and access to the cars via a so called door. 4. Thus LEVEL 1 is like most homes where supposely it is your main door entrance even if you enter via the "dug" out basement. 5. The sloping staircase, if you look at it is another block of landscaping that is perhaps higher than your …

1. Grateful if you can re-read what I had written earlier. 2. Frankly, if you have zero or no knowledge in this subject, then, you shouldn't be attempting to write a thesis on this subject. 3. Usually, for an academic thesis - up to an MBA standard, it is suppose to be what you had learned e.g. in Strategic Planning and applying all the various concepts learned into your thesis. 4. Furthermore, I can understand if you are writing a thesis to be evaluated by a geomancer. But, if not, then this is tall order. 4. This is my last courtesy reply to this.

1. Please don't jump to the wrong conclusions. 2. Feng Shui also concerns with the amount of sun-light (or direct sun-light) coming into or "soaking into the walls of a home". 3. Please check out my previous postings with reference to Para 2. 4. Para 2 has nothing to do with Compass School of Feng Shui. Although, all "leaks" including Para 2 may add up to cause further problems. 5. Para 2, is about either the effects of direct sun-light (raditation) or heat (walls soak heat and slowly releases the heat in the evening - especially concern for countries close to the equator).

Many thanks for the reply. Your advice is very clear and easy to understand. I am going to the printers today to look into getting three colour business cards done. Iam thinking of Purple /green /red or brown / purple/ red Thanks again and may god bless you for your kindness !

Dear Sor Lan, Frankly, not sure whether, the ship sails "into" or "out-of" is a sure way to get more money. For sure, the seller of the ship, would instead be garanteed of some profit selling it to us. Anyway, under symbolism, in my opinion, if your ship is laden with gold ingots, I would have to say that it is best to sail "to port" or face inwards to your home. Here, wealth is suppose to come in. On the other hand, if the ship is empty, than, "let it set sail outwards" or pointed out of the home. Do let us know if at the end of the day, do you managed to get more wealth, this wayhttp://www.geomancy.net/wbimages/smiles/icon_smile.gif Warmest Regards, Cecil

Cecil and Kam Thanks for the advice

Displaying it a the staircase, I feel is better than facing the living room. Just make sure that it is not facing directly the steps. It can be at the "outlines" i.e. side of the staircase. For mansionettes, it can be at the passageway usually between the staircase and the kitchen ....

Master Cecil, Thank you for your prompt reply. As I am a male yin wood OX with 5 earth , 3 wood , missing water, fire and metal. As I am not well versed in Feng Shui and I gather from your sample that I can increase my unfavourable elements to compensate the missing ones in my ba zi reading and reduce earth and wood colours . Is that correct ? Thank You Mike .

The Three popular figurines that come as a set are: Fu (Prosperity) Lu (Luck) Shou (Longevity Some pictures of each of these symbols are found here:- http://www.geomancy.net/mypictures/cgi-bin/mypictures.cgi?img=0&search=prosperity&cat=all&bool=and&x=12&y=14 The rationale for an inverted " Prosperity/wealth" is symbolic. Since Fu (prosperity is inverted) it implies that you are pouring wealth downwards. And since, some homes place this inside their main entrance: it literally means prosperity (wealth) is pouring down e.g. from heaven to earth. Warmest Regards, Cecil

Dear Wasis, If the tree is still alive: 1. Check for any evidence of `roting' or decay. If e.g a branch had decayed and part of the branch breaks leaving part of the broken branch hanging like a `poison' arrow; make sure that this `arm' or branch gets "amputated" as soon as possible. *JOKE* Seriously, if one stands at the main entrance and facing out of the house, if the broken branch `act's like a knife cutting thru the house, then, cut off this branch as close as possible to the tree trunk. 2. On a regular basis, if the roots are visible, check if it is hollow / if possible the tree truck also with some solid object. If it sounds `empty', decay could have set in. I do n…

1. Contrary to popular belief, a home that may enjoy parent string combination does not automatically do so. The key is : Location, location and location. 2. Frankly, either there is some issue with the location: if it is a landed property: factors like drainage etc.. and other external and internal factors should be taken into consideration. 3. The cures or enhancement is not general to all. And, if you are DIY, then, try to apply the Eight House and Flying star Feng Shui: In particular, as mentioned previously in this forum see if you can activate: #8 current prosperity and/or #9 - especially for middle aged persons #1 future, future prosperity and also try to fix …

Dear All, Here are some questions which we can use as a guideline:- 1. How useful is Shapes and Form Feng Shui? We can make use of Shapes and Form Feng Shui to review our home with regards to the strengths and weakness / threats to our home. If we are choosing a new home, and take full advantage of Shapes and Form FS, we may get a Quantum Leap in Feng Shui LUCK. (This area is worth understanding). But do remember that it is easy to understand but difficult to apply in some instances. 2. Go on the Defensive... Even if a house is considered an EXCELLENT house (by virtue of its EXCELLENT Shapes and Form), this does not mean that such a house does not have a `defect'. The rul…

Please see below:- Yes, you did the right thing. In Feng Shui, it is always best to have the stove face the Fire element direction. Yes, this is not ideal but it is better than having it next to a water element e.g. wash basin or refrigerator. The good news is that since you mentioned that your stove is facing the South, which belongs to the Fire element, it is acceptable to have a water position e.g. refrigerator to be facing the `fire' element ie. the stove to `cool down the Fire' element. Good Luck in your renovations!
