General Help

Dear Mr. Cecil, Thank you very much for your great advise, this will help me a lot. I just want to clarify the following: 1. If I will keep my original layout andjust swap the place of TV and Cabinet, is it okay also toexchange thecomputer/printer with the new location of TV? 2. Also, I just noticed last night that 1/8 part of mybed is overlapping with the window, is this would be a problem or is it okay to retain the location of the bed. I am currently living in Riyadh with my husband and daughter. Here in Riyadh nobody opens their window due to too much dust orthey call it sandstorm. We usually even put heavy duty tape to cover the whole window to avoid single dust ente…

Dear Cecil Unfortunately the sw,w, nw are window facing. This the room facing the hdb walkway which have the big windows. The only area I can have the table is to tilt a bit or can the table face the window for my boy? The tilting is about few degree difference.

1. My most recentSuunto compass is the model: Suunto KB-14/360 PTI COMPASS ZO for REGION 3. http://forum.geomancy.net/phpforum/article.php?bid=2&fid=6&mid=27494&new 2. However, it has been with more for around 3 to 4 years. Costs around I forgot approximately SGP $260 thereabouts. 3. I bought it at Far East Plaza (basement). There are two suba-diving shops at the basement. 4. Make sure that to check out the above link where the back aluminium face-plate has been stamped with a Number : #3 = region THREE for Singapore use. For other countries, there is a correction markings also on the back for declination deviations. 5. Below has a link to my older plastic b…

1.It is always best to beclear. 2. Under Flying Star Feng Shui,it is about compass directions. 3. For example, maybe to you; you are clear about the"right" side. 4. To me,I would consider the median point of the home and to the right side can be vast: NE,East and SE. 5. While the left side of North can have NW, West and SW. 6. It is preferred not to have the kitche at NW: if you do call this the LEFT side. 7. With such a hazy term call RIGHT side (or even LEFT) side... it's anyone's guess. 8. Even for a trapezoid shaped home, make sure that the top-view profile of the home is as rectangular as possible.

If you are applying Flying Star Feng Shui; then: 1. Best to determine where the most yang qi or "bright areas" or openings. Often, this is the best bet for the "frontage" or as the frontage of the home. 2. If you often slam shut your main entrance door into your apartment; then most likely this should not be the facing direction. 3. If you are into the DIY Feng Shui; then I would use Para 1 as the facing direction. 4. But for those who locally we call it "Kiasu" or "Kiasee" = want to play safe, could draw out a few Flying Stars e.g. one for S2 and for another facing direction. 5. You wrote: "is there a particular remedy I need for the south 8M8W3T" For remedies (not jus…

1. The abandoned house can affect the Feng Shui of your home. 2. One good news is that the plot is still rectangular in Shape. And so long as there are "open" spaces or "bright" areas (bright-hall effect) this is a plus point. 3. It also depends on the built up of the home itself. 4. in this world, I can recall there are long houses in Sarawak. And even in Vietnam; because of the long ago history of tax based on the frontage areas, some homes in Vietnam took advantage of this loop-hole and has a very narrow frontage but very long home much like the one you had outlined. 5. Please note that you have to respect copy-rights and cannot post the "google"type of map without lea…

A near-by home which also placed a pair of elephants on each of the main gate pillars

These are some considerations: 1. Do take note that yin numbers are even: 2, 4, 6 or 8. 2. Yang numbers are 1, 3, 5 or 7. 3. In a 'yin' environment; in general, just check that if you had drawn a Flying Star chart: go thru the chart for sectors that purely have all yin stars. And check which area it is. If the room is not bright enough; then best is to let natural light flow in. (Other than a store room). 4. The most yang colours can be used in the home to neutralise yin stars: RED. 5. Lighting or natural lighting does help also to reduce the yin of the home.

This are some considerations: 1. Common sense Feng Shui 1.1. The stove should not be too close to a sidewall especially if later, one needs to place a large wok onto the stove. Here, if the wall is too close; the wok simply can't be placed onto the stove. In addition, if the stove is too close to the wall, flames will get to it. 1.2. For the Chinese, we often fry our food; thus it is often not a good idea to place any other items be it a cabinet or a fridge too close to the stove. Here, after a few months, the side of the fridge would often be soaked with deposits of cooking oil. 1.3. The stove should not have the neighbour's drainage pipe or sewerage pipe above the stove…

1. Frankly, it depends. 2. Thus the clash is dependant on what elements (which of the Five elements) clash with what element.

In my opinion, usually the furthest a geomancer would go into is if the person e.g. has too yin a chart.. and looking at the entire chart in a holistic way. Other than that, you seldom if ever see geomancers "dwell further into what you had mentioned". Overall: yin = passive and yang = active. I believe that so far, no one has done deep research into people with too yin or too yang a chart.

1. Friend, have you considered that the summary of elements of each individual changes every 10 YEARS? For example, look at this sample chart. When born his chart or Summary of Elements Looks like this Summary of all the Elements and it's Strength. Element Strength Percentage 3 Water Strongest 40 % 2 Wood Strong 21 % 2 Fire Extremely Weak 5 % 3 Earth Weakest 16 % 2 Metal Weak 16 % Changes in your Five Element Balance for 34 - 43 (2009 - 2018) Water Wood Fire …

Yes, you are right to point out that the poison arrow (concrete beam edge) in my opinion exerts around 1 metre range of sha qi or poison arrows. I only gave a quick glance of the layout plan; 1. Standing at the main door when looking into the kitchen, should not have a glimpse of sharp objects like knifes or scissors.. as based on Shapes and Forms, this is considered inauspicious. 1.1. While based on commonsense, it is rare but if someone were to run into the home, sees the knives; grap one and go threaten the family members... (More on commonsense, here). 2. In the event that the dining table can be seen thru the corridor of the main door area and orbedroom 3, then if t…

Oh! I forgot! This is a gentle reminder... It is totally unfair to look at your auspicious date only, hor! I mean, if the house belongs to the two of you, you should look at combined auspicious dates... Again, it won't be fair the the family members rite? One must also look at auspicious dates for family members: children and parents if they are staying with us.. Oh! Don't forget the pets also!

Further to what I had mentioned; the link below is a useful Paradigm or model to use to try to understand whether a concept can be linked to pure commonsense. http://www.geomancy.net/wiki/The_Three-Step-Approach#What_is_the_Three-Step_Approach.3F Posted in: Info :: Feng Shui Tips & Guidelines Posted on: Fri, 11 Jan 2002, 21:03 PM

Frankly, if one has to apply proper authentic Feng Shui:- 1. Additional information like the "year of birth" of a home ; not just my house is 28 degrees.... 2. Shapes and Forms Feng Shui has to be considered; the exterior and the interior layout in relation to the feasiblity of placing a water position. 3. At best, no worries, here.. you could still practise "Trial and Error"; see where you like it then place it, there.

Okey, It is clear, excuses for the confusion.My intentions where good, I was honest about something I doubted, i hope u understand. Geomancy.net is the best communityI everfaced in my life, for cultural Identity directions that can be apllied in life.The layer of awarenes that implicates a certain basefor people to functionat full potential, is being activated once people areinformed of the feng shui theories.That is allI can sayas an Art student. once again Best regards andgood luck!

These are some considerations:- 1) Must the safe box place in a particlular position or direction ? - It would be "Nice-to" have it placed at an auspicious mountain star e.g. Mountain star #8 or #1 location. 2) Must the safe be hidden in the wardrobe or must be cover up (In term of Feng Shui view) - Commonsense and not Feng Shui 3) Is the safe box consider Metal Element? So is it cannot place near window or toilet? - Whether it is metal element or not : it has no direct association with say a toilet or window. - Commonsense says that it is not advisable to place it near or next to a window. Especially if there are young ones at home. Else if house has no grille(s) or eve…

1. Frankly, it is common sense. 2. But this cow sense geomancer has to add these sentences... 2.1. As many of us know; in the English language: 2.2. We know what is the difference between a stove and an oven. How? 2.3. One cow sense way to differentiate the two is: 2.3.1 In the English vocab; we add an "a" in-front of stove. While since an oven starts with an "o" when we make a sentence out of "oven" we have to add "an" in-front of the word "oven" Right? 3. And since stove starts with S ; while oven starts with O: they are not the same rite? Got it? Get it? 4. Common sense says that the proper way to describe a microwave is not just microwave but mircowave OVEN. 5. So ar…

1. Thanks for making the effort to post the photos! Many Thanks! 2. In my opinion; I also personally feel that the zig zag staircase at the "frontage" does not seem to have good Shapes and Forms Feng Shui: http://forum.geomancy.net/upload/Staircase%20Zig%20Zag.JPG 3. The above can be considered as a or ONE major leak. And the above link is not common and in plain sight is considered "quite ugly" and contributes to bring down the "luck of the home/apartment. 4. In order usually to have bad Feng Shui, a home and it's surroundings combined often need to have around 2 to 3 or more major "leaks". Anyway, this is beyond this free general advice forum. 5. Things like the straigh…

In my opinion these are some of the considerations:- 1. The Traditional Paradigm or Model is that the "six killings liu sha" signifies: things like scandals, missed opportunities & legal entanglements. 1.1. In particular, in the past; the Chinese like many societies; the girls or ladies live in a relatively conservative society and what would be worse was to have girls in one's family or home involved with scandals with opposite sex. This was unheard of as girls or ladies were suppose to stay at home and cook. 2. The Paradigm shift. 2.1. In modern times; women (girls & ladies) are often considered equals in many fields. And women are now involved in many differen…
