Dear Mandy, Please refer to this resource on how to determine the centrepoint, etc... http://www.geomancy.net/resources/theories/fs-house1.htm There are many (many) Schools of Feng Shui. And your geomancy master is not wrong. In the past, ancient times, getting the main door is simple since, many of the homes / with court-yard are rectangular in shape and where the main gate facing is, the main door facing is often in the same direction. In ancient times, there is no such thing as so elaborate a building with honeycombs of various `facing' homes. Given this senario, standing at the centrepoint to the main door utilises the concept of "centre-of-gravity" and the flux a…

Dear Ken, Please see below:- -- Extract from a recent e-mail on auspicious measurements -- Further to what I had mentioned; For the surface area of your `Feng Shui friendly' tables or for anyone wanting to manufacture Feng Shui friendly tables can use this explanation:- (One Feng Shui foot is nearly equal to an imperial foot. One Feng Shui foot is roughly equal to 43 cms.) Description of tables with multiples of 17 inches (lenght x width):- THE MAGICAL 17 INCH FACTOR "One Feng Shui foot was derived from the side of a square, where the length of the diagonal of a square is the square root of two. In the West, this is known as the `magic square'. Thus multiples of 17 inche…

Dear Master Lee, Thank you very much for your time and advice. Very detailed explanation. Regarding the screen you suggested, does the screen need to be as wide as the door ? I know that, it must be at least the same height as the door. e.g. Can the screen be half the size of the door's width ? http://198.66.6.160/1.jpg ? Or must the width of the screen be at least the same as the door ? http://198.66.6.160/2.jpg ? Thank you. Regards, Ken wrote in message news:12935.6652@forum.geomancy.net...

Hello Master, I need your expertise! The center of a SW sum-of-ten house is closed in a understairs closet. In attachment the natal chart of the center sector. To me this sector is rated average (due to triple combination and sum of ten) thus I don’t know if I must be happy and keep closed, or try lo leave it open for the benefit of the house. Thank you for your kind help.

Dear Anon, Yes, you `hit-on-the-nail'. I went thru your description once and gave up understanding what u meant. Without that sketch, I don't think I can answer your question. Warmest Regards, Cecil

Dear Anon, 1. For the extension, in order for it to be considered an " extension " of the home, it has to be an enclosed space. Not an open space or `shelter'. 2. It is usually not prudent to add an extension unless it is used to `cover' a missing corner. Avoid a protrusion at the wrong compass direction of the house. If there is a missing corner, one can use instead, landscaping for a landed property. 3. From the many analysis done on houses, the centrepoint should usually be clear space. If not clear space, leaving it or not e.g. using the toilet at all is acceptable. (Not ideal but still better than `using' it). The rationale is because the centrepoint is where all th…

Dear Phil, It is quite common to have staircase(s) close to the centre of the house. So far, if one read thru the messages under this forum, there is no direct issue of a staircase at the middle of the house. Usually, if there is a problem, it is due to multiple issues. For a staircase, however, it is preferred that the steps are covered e.g. no opening or hollow between each steps. A mirror can also be used at the staircase landing to direct flow of Qi. Warmest Regards, Cecil

Dear Anooja, 1. For star 5 for a period 7 / 8 house in the center isn't a main issue. This is because usually the center is not where most bedroom or any important rooms are located. 2. Usually for center of the house, it should be kept empty as far as possible this is usually where all the different influence will meet at together so not wise to have too much of any elements. 3. A more major issue where some homes are affected with the presence of Star 9 and Star 5 are present at the same sector. This is because Fire will fuel the Earth Star. So this is not a major issue to worry about. http://www.geomancy.net/wbimages/smiles/icon_neutral.gif Hope that helps. Warmest R…

Hi ! Could you please help me to understand where is the centre of this apartment? Thanks a lot.

Dear Lee, 1. Thank you for your effort in scanning and providing the relevant details. 2. It is thru, the proper details provided e.g. scanned image that makes it easy for me to provide the relevant advise. 3. As for the significance of either `protusions' or `missing corners' please refer to this URL:- http://www.geomancy.net/resources/theories/fs-building.htm 4. The ruleset here is that a `protusion' or `missing corner' is one where a sector has either a protrusion or missing corner equal to or exceeding 33.3 percent of the area of that particular sector. 5. Thus a sector is defined as: based on the layout plan, equally divide the floor plan into 9 equal sectors. 6. If…

Dear Kaushal, 1. Some FS practitioners mentioned that to `energise' the centre of the house, some recommend, placing symbolically the 5 elements e.g. at this location. For example, it could be the use of colours e.g. a piece of string say in the 5 colours or use of other materials such as beads. 2. In my opinion, many excellent or good houses have characteristics of `clear space' or walk space at the centre-point of the house. Here, if there is `clear space' it would thus not be possible; for example, for a toilet to be at this location. 3. I believe that the centrepoint should have clear space as again many excellent or good houses or it is where Qi moves from one side o…

Dear all, 1. Further to what I had mentioned, often, I mentioned that it is `inauspicious' to have a toilet at the centrepoint. 2. Much of Feng Shui is about `commonsense'. 3. If we closely examine one of the rationale for not having a toilet at the centrepoint is because of `water' in the toilet / bathroom. 4. If we can keep this toilet, clean and dry is ok. But what happens if we often bathe in this toilet and after bathing, there is always a wet floor or wet walls or water in this toilet. 5. Somehow, such `water' has to evaporate. And it would be `nice' to have a toilet sharing an external wall; because, some of the moisture, can be `distributed' out of the windows or …

Wasis, Apologies, I did not see the attachment. Warmest Regards, Cecil

Dear Vijay, 1. Usually, we have to be pragmatic when applying Flying Star or the Eight sectors. 2. If our house or apartment is small to medium sized e.g. 800 sq feet to 3,000 sq feet, usually we do not need to subdivide the house into various sectors. Especially if we own the entire house. 3. In a house environment, if we are using Flying Star, more important considerations are the frontage and the back of the house. 4. However, I would agree with you, that in some cases, it would be good to do sub-sectional Feng Shui for offices. This is because, many individual offices do have their own internal floor area and their specific main door. 5. For a home, I would recommend …

Dear Norma, Since you are occupying only one side of the house, the centrepoint should be taken only on your side of the house. As for the breadwinner, although both roughly earn the same salary, with regards to Feng Shui, usually, if this is the case, the `male' or your husband should be taken as the breadwinner. Warmest Regards, Cecil

Dear Amelia, Sorry, not sure what you meant that you should have your dining table at the centrepoint of the home. A dining table need not necessarily be or (must or even nice to have) located at the centrepoint of the home. In many homes: for the living/dining room area: we first need to locate the actual location of the living room. After doing so, the next area to allocate is the dining table.Again, it may not be atthe centrepoint of the home. In Commonsense Approach to Feng Shui,the toilet: Whenever we flush the toilet bowl,minutewater droplets or sprays will fly all over the place. (Usually it containssome germs). Thusif we have the toilet doordirectly facing th…

Note: Fax message received and replied via personal e-mail. Dear Anon, I have already located the centrepoint and e-mailed to you. Warmest Regards, Cecil
