1. Feng Shui has two major schools: 1.1. Shapes and Forms Feng Shui; 1.2. Compass School Feng Shui: Eight House and Flying Star 2. I can only comment on Para 1.1: this is a general advice forum and not a I do it for you sort of thing: It is so easy to add the compass direction, but there is a lot of work needed for such an evaluation. And often it also has to include the breadwinners date n time of birth. If you can, DIY on your own.

1. Frankly, even amongst (us) geomancer's; many of us cannot even agree on the issue of the facing direction. 2. But the main concensus is that the facing direction can be the door, the facaade of the building, the stack BUT However, it should be the place where it has the most yang qi. 3. Usually if it is an existing home, there should be some "history". If so, several flying charts could be created and analysed. 4. An experienced geomancer, would normally analyse the habit(s) of their client; e.g. always close or open their main door, windows fully or partially opened or closed all the time. The activity area such as the living room etc.... 5. Therefore, it is wishf…

Indeed, the presence of the two towering structures contributes to a rather somber atmosphere in this area, diminishing the previously experienced 'bright hall' effect.

Frankly this is pretty common, and it depends. In Singapore many estates have such a situation e.g. Siglap hill area, Hume Avenue, Yio Chu Kang, River Valley, Dunearn Road, Holland Rd areas. In fact, just about anywhere. Thus, many factors including how the home was built. In general, you are quite correct to say that earth luck (or poor luck) is usually strongest at the ground level.

1. Thanks for the sketch. 2. If it is still a set of staircase for any block of flats; it is suppose to be a fire escape stairway (area). 3. If so, under Singapore (and most other countries) fire safety code; the staircase door should be closed. 4. Thus, since there is all the more reason for this door to be closed; it should be fine. In this case, you don't need to place those item that you are not in favour of at your main door area.

1. The true nature of what you mentioned or "the statement" has more to do with pure landscape. 2. Where the best landscape is not only the academic sayingof the entrance door where one sees the dragon and ??? where is the tiger? 3.What it really is suppose to be is a good site is where one can see not just the green dragon but a white tiger. And the key ingredient is thatboth are in gentle embrace. 4. This is the key success factorof a good site based on this concept of Shapes and Forms Feng Shui. 5. Thus: to be frank: "so what if thedragon is ... " but where is the tiger? in gentle embrace! Anonymous wrote: Dear Cecil Many thanks for this excellent site I have a d…

Please see attachment. This layout is preferred over the other one. As the bed is parallel to the bedroom walls. However, in a larger bedroom, your second alternative "slanting the bed" is practised by some Geomancers. Overall, do check that the toilet bowl particularly the piping is not sharing the same wall as your "face" when you sleep. There is a cause of concern of cancer in such a situation.

1. Yes, in Singapore, there are similar plots similar to the plot 18 you had mentioned. 2. There should be more study, but generally, the main entrance door should not directly face the gate. 3. Often the best is to make such a home on this plot as rectangular as possible. And just imagine, the driveway; a car drives up to home. And the better situation is the main door runs parallel to the driveway - is one way to neutralise any sha qi from the cul-de-sac.

These are the consideration:- 1. Burial date does not depend on any person's "auspicious date(s)". 2. But rather for the Chinese, burial or cremation is always on the "yang" days. Yang days are odd number days. Never YIN days. 3. Thus for example if a person dies on this Friday, then Friday is counted. Thus, the earliest burial day is SUNDAY (three days: Friday, Saturday and Sunday - note Firday is counted as 1 day even if it is late into the night of Friday). 4. Thus Chinese burial (or cremation) is always: Third day, Fifth day, seventh,ninthday. Never on an even day for those in the know: 2nd, fourth, sixth, 8th day.

1. Based strictly on Shapes and Forms Feng Shui; your attached layout plan is pretty common given the constraints of windows / balcony / toilet door / bedroom door and location to mount the tv set. 2. Thus overall, looks fine under Shapes and Forms Feng Shui.

1. Please note that in the past, a good site is always influenced by the dragon with gentle embrace of the tiger (landscape). 2. For a burial site; often it is best to be situated on the SOUTH-SIDE of a hill and the burial plot faces south. This the big picture is the "landscape" not just the plot and it's surroundings if that is what you are trying to figure out. The key here is the "big" picture of a land... 3. Thus, a good burial site is a hill where all the cemetry plot faces south.

It is good if there is a layout or simple sketch. As in many instances; some of us may mis-interpret the "center-of-gravity" of a home wrongly. Just recently, a client was so worried about an "L' shaped layout plan. When I reviewed the layout plan; instead there were some protrusions and missing corner(s) for this home. And the layout plan based on the "centre-of-gravity" concept; is not an "L"-shaped layout plan.

Thanks for giving me a better understanding of the 5-element and bazi. At first, after reading about using bazi to calulate compatibility and using 5-element concept to create balance, I thought it could also be applied to a family unit to enhance harmony, didn't quite understand. I suppose I misunderstood its application. Best regards Paul Wangchuk

1. Your analysis is OK. 2. Just take note that usually Orange colour should be classified as under metal = gold element. 3. As three major dialect groups of the Chinese consider "orange" as gold:- 3.1. The Cantonese Dialect group (largest population outside of China, Guandong province) in Hong Kong and is 2nd largest Chinese population in Singapore: calls orange "KUM" or gold. 3.2. The Hokkien Dialect group (in Singapore is the largest dialect group) outside of China calls it "KIM" or also gold. 3.3. The Teochews (the third largest dialect group in Singapore) also calls it "KIM" or gold. 4. For example, many young couples or youngsters who visit their elders always …

1. Frankly, the main concern is that of placing an altar with it's back sharing the toilet wall. 2. For example; this applies to both Chinese altars of various gods and even some Catholics who have a small "symbolic" altar. 3. Otherwise, any other concerns has more to do with personal feelings or personal sentiments: in your case a deep concern of placing family photos say on wall mounts. 4. Given the layout plan that you had provided; in-fact, there are many who had placed their dining table next to the toilet wall or sharing the wall -

Did the yellow skinned cave-men or cave-people really invented Shapes and Forms Feng Shui? Don't always believe what I say! Do a SEARCH, please!

1. In a previous message; you mentioned that you are so into Flying Star Feng Shui; 2. If you are so into this Flying Star "stuff" then you could draw a Flying Star Chart of the home:- 2.1 Interpret the 20 Year Flying Star combinations: paying attention to numbers like #3 and #5. 2.2 Check the 81 combinations of the mountain star with water star interpretation. For example, see a small extract showing the interaction of Mountain Star #4 with Water Star #3. 3. Even if one wants to "eat and sleep" with Flying Star should be well versed in all aspects of the Flying Star Feng Shui". 4. The saying goes " a little knowledge is like no knowlege.. and often .. a dangero…

These are some of the considerations:- 1. If the breadwinner and spouse had already slept in the new or resale home especially : 1.1. Used the built in stove to cook a meal: 1.2. Bathed in the home 1.3. Slept in the new or resale home 2. Especially if all these three ACTIVITIES were done say in the same day; then no need to talk: this is already considered as "moved-in". 3. If one brings in a used washing machine; but did not use it; this is in the loose sense - for practical reasons; fine or OK. 4. It is the same thing as an "old" or "existing" dining table brought into the new home. So long as one does not use it for proper dining; then it is technically fine…

So long as the "top-view" it ain't look like a missing corner; whatever material that one uses to outline the house with say glass or concrete is in-material.
