1.In my opinion, the lowest common denominator is the five elements concept. 2. How easy to apply a model or concept. So long as the concepts and method are sound, it is based on how easily it can be properly understood and applied. 3. Ultimately, Shapes and Forms Feng Shui is in my opinion most critical. Feng Shui cannot live without Shapes and Forms, but may survive without Flying Star and it's variant. 4. Thus in my opinion, if the concepts or models are based on Flying star, even the distant cousin nine star key belongs to this school.

Dear Fraser, I believe Lillian Too as a different book on each of the topic you mentioned: One one landscaping and the other on `Water Dragon Classic' (an older book maybe there is a new version). Personally, I have not read both books so unable to provide any comments. Anyone care to comment or share with us your views if you have read any of these books. (I not sure sure the exact title..... but the titles should be around what I mentioned.) There may be new ones... as I am quite busy, did not have a look at any of them nor confirm what School are they practising. Perhaps, you can also try checking out Amazon.com or Barnes & Nobles for these topics. Warmest Regard…

Dear Cecil, Thanks for your reply. You've been a great help. The "Matt" finishing on glass is not common tho we would endeavour to obtain it. Also, where would you advise on placing a water feature in the home?? We are planning to get one plus some indoor plants. What kind of plant would be good asides from the "money plant"? Thanks for your help and expert advise!! Cheers.

From a Feng Shui point of view: Eight Aspirations is static. And in the past, and even under the Lin Yun era of Black Hat (Tantric) sect; was very popular. Where you had mentioned North = Water etc... But the Eight Aspirations is a "fixed" model and does not consider TIME DIMENSION as compared to the timely stars of the Flying Star Feng Shui. In the 1970'sespecially1980's: a hiredgeomancer who proclaims that one needs a water position at North would not be questioned. But today, a client who is reasonably versed in basic Feng Shui would seriously question such a judgement or rather no brainer geomancer!

1. The act of giving shoes is a tradition in China, much like the custom of avoiding giving clocks or bells as gifts. 2. However, considering these shoes are "old", there may be some flexibility in how we perceive them as gifts. It could be seen more as a kind gesture rather than a traditional gift. 3. For individuals of other ethnicities, this may not be a concern, as there is no obligation to adhere to customs of a different culture. 4. I recall a time, many years ago, even in a predominantly Chinese community, where there was a promotion to purchase a new pair of branded sports shoes at a discount by bringing in an old pair to either recycle or donate to…

Dear Michelle, Thank you for your kind words on the forum. Nowadays, this forum has grown quite large and there are many who have joined the forum from day one and there are also new users. Therefore, the best approach is to try to have a " balance " in the information provided. For those of you who have been with the forum for quite a while, if you have constructive advice, feel free to share it with all of us. Learning is two way and it is nice to hear from everyone. Back to your question. There are a few practioners who have the view point that:- 1. One should sleep on a raised bed. This is to allow Qi to pass thru under the bed. 2. Others feel that the above argument …

Hello, I was reading this helpful article. Actually this question is more important and not as simple as it seems. For instance, my neighbor's house, which is located in the East from mine, just started doing big renovation on her property. So while I was careful not to do renovations on mine, because the 3 killings in East during most of 2009, somebody located on my East direction did. Will this affect me as well, since her property is only about 20 feet from mine? Or just affect her, since it is her house and her doing the renovation? And if we are affected by what others do as well, then what is the best cure for that? Regards Al

These are some considerations:- 1. You can generate the Eight House report to check on How suitable this house is to usually the male breadwinner under this Free link:- http://www.geomancy.net/reports/reports-list/perlist-suitablehouse.htm 2. For DIY, frankly, you have to do more reading and if possible apply both the Shapes and Forms Feng Shui as well as the Flying Star Feng Shui.

Dear Rev. Michael, 1. Based on my personal experience, it is best to firstly, follow the Shapes and Form School of Feng Shui in determining the best direction for a bed. Here, where possible when one opens the bedroom door, it should not directly face the bed (e.g. the leg portion). Most bedrooms now have an attached bathroom and it is considered not auspicious to place the bed on the same wall as the toilet wall especially on the opposite wall as the toilet bowl. 2. As mentioned above, conditions for `Shapes and Form' Feng Shui has first to be met before using other Feng Shui theories. 3. Next, we can use the Eight House Theory. Here, take it as a bonus if the bed can be…

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.

Dear Hoa Luong, Please refer to my earlier forum message which I clearly stated that a WS#9 is not the same as WS#8. In many of the forum messages a WS#8 = current prosperity and water should be activated here. Please check my previous message where I mentioned that WS#9 is best associated with Wood element. Thus it would be reasonable to place a plant at that sector to enhance the future prosperity. As to whether the plant is medium sized or large it has to go with the location where one wants to place it. And it is for your own judgement to do so. If the location can support a large tree and looks reasonable then go ahead. But if as a result of the big tree, for ex…

1. Hopefully, the double #8's at the back is not the toilet or kitchen area else it is wasted, here. 2. Some homes have their acitivity area at the back e.g. dining room. If there is some form of living area at the "back" of the home, one can have more activities in this area. Alternatively, allow windows to be opened (provided no rain - leaking into the home). Letting qi or air coming from this area is a good consideration - allow it to circulate into the home. 3. Once a while, it is often good to allow qi to or ordinary wind to flow into all parts of the home e.g. open windows or doors every few weeks - is good for qi circulation: avoiding dead / sha qi or suffocating…

Dear Diane, 1. Black colour represents the water element. 2. It is acceptable for a weak water person to be assocated with Black (or blue or grey) the colours identified with Water element. 3. Usually wrought iron beds the exposed area (in my opinion) does not have that much of an impact on the environment of the room as most parts of it is not seen. Warmest Regards, Cecil

Dear CJ See, In such a case, I would first ask you whether who would be considered more important or holding very important decision making to keep the company going. If it is you, then ideally the facing of the office should fit you first. Especially, if you are the one running the business operations, and if your partner is considered like a sleeping partner. If not, then your business partner should get a better office facing. Then the other thing you can do, is ensure that you locate yourself in a good sector of the office, so that you can gain luck from that to offset what you cannot gain from the office main door/facing. Hope that helps. Warmest Regards Robert …
