Flying Star Feng Shui (Xuan Kong Fei Xing)

Dear Dylan, If you can provide me the pre-analysed information, and not merely numbers such as 7-2-7 etc... I would be glad to provide you with further advise. As I mentioned in several messages that, time is a precious commodity and I will be glad to help anyone if they provide me with pre-analysed information and not `raw data'. Your main entrance enjoys Double 7's if it lands directly at the main entrance door. For example, within 15 degree deviations e.g. if double 7 is located at 0 degree, the main door should not deviate to the left or right of this 0 degrees. Warmest Regards, Cecil

Dear Anon, 1. I believe what you are referring to is based on the Five elements in relation to the Flying Star numbers. 2. At each sector, there can be `conflicts' of the Five elements. 3. The `conflicts' can be seen as either helpful or harmful. 4. For example, if the `conflicting' element aids or help to neutralise or contain a bad element, then this is helpful. 5. Another example, if the rogue element is a the Five Yellow or Strong Earth, it would be nice to have a conflicting `Strong wood' element to neutralise it. 6. If the `position of conflict' is based on Traditional Feng Shui, then, one should use the Five Elements to analyse the conflict or complement to each o…

Dear Jack, 1. Assuming that the recommendation is to use 6 coins, this is considered a `specific' cure. What this means is that this cure is specific to the location. It is not an a overly huge object or item but the 6 coins (for example) represent) strong metal to cure an imbalance at a sector. 2. The cure should usually not relate to the person as it is used to balance a sector. 3. But assuming if even if it is used, as your wife is a Strong Water person and metal is still acceptable as it is beneficial to her as it neutralises her strong water element. However, para 3 is usually not considered when we balance all the various sectors. It is the specific sector which is…

Dear Anon, Perhaps, if you have a sketch of what the `L' shaped house, you can upload to us to look at it. Warmest Regards, Cecil

Dear Steven, Usually, when applying cures: 1. We first look at the sector and determine the `true' compass degrees especially, N, NE, NW, S, SE, SW, W and E. 2. It will be easily if the orientation of the house is aligned to the North-South or compass directions. 3. Here, the wall, or window areas are within the same `sector'. 4. But of course, in real life, this is not always the case. We may have the compass degree e.g. SW partially on one wall and another angle. 5. Here, judgement and analysis on this. 6. If the compass degree of that sector falls e.g. on the cupboard area or a frontage that one cannot place e.g. a pedestal, there is not much that can be done other the…

Dear Steven, As our information on the matter is `piecemeal', we do not have all the facts or conduct a full audit, in general: 1. Some Feng Shui practitioners consider the huge fish tank `wealth' creation or alternatively, 2. To neutralise Sha Qi. Thus, with the little information, we do not exactly know whether it is more for 1 or 2. Some Feng Shui practitioners, have advised on placing Fish Tank even in the toilet area. To either achieve above Para 1 or 2. Warmest Regards, Cecil

Dear Durelle, I do not do manual calculations or matching #'s to look at combinations of water to avoid or enhance. This forum is a `self-help' forum. I have stated many times that it if one person provides me with general information like: Please see below:- Since you have already painted the wall, and you personally like it, and through either sixth sense or trial and error Feng Shui, everything is fine, then generally it is OK. On a Feng Shui perspective: 1. As you mentioned, red or bright colours general make the location more Yang. 2. Flying Star Feng Shui can be used to analyse if the colours clash with the sector e.g. whether it is neutral to the sector or…

Dear Anon, 1. There are some new resources under this URL: http://my.geomancy.net/mypictures/cgi-bin/imagefolio.cgi?direct=Homes/Finding_the_Centrepoint You can find examples of how centrepoint are determined. 2. The above is a new site using another specialized software to manage graphics. 3. While this forum is good at new postings, it does not concentrate on handling images. Thus, you may need to search between text and graphics. 4. Thus, the idea for a site completely dedicated to images was born. Images can be posted there and there is a Search engine for this purpose. The main URL is: http://mypictures.geomancy.net Currently, there are already more than 1,200 image…

Dear Jack, Grateful if you let me have the details so that I can assist you. Regards, Cecil

Dear Jack, Please see below:- Priority should go to using the Yearly Star report. Thus from to 5 Feb 2000 to 23 Jan 2001, use METAL to destroy and control WOOD. Since, the yearly chart is always available, one should use this instead of the 20 year Flying Chart. From 24 Jan 2001 to 11 Feb 2002, try to check the Yearly chart next year and use this instead of the 20 year Flying Chart. Use the Yearly chart solution i.e. Wood. Do let me know if you need any further advise. Many Thanks for making it easy for me to understand your situation and taking the time to draft your mail:) Regards, Cecil

Dear Daniel, If I understand you correctly, you mean that the ratio of your door against the frontage is 85 percent of the house? In such a situation, so long as not all the e.g. sliding doors are opened, you need not necessary paint the door. I believe, it is equally `ugly' to do so. It is best to have natural lighting coming into the house. Assuming if you paint the door's, then there are few windows. It is a disadvantage to have a very YIN house as a result of this. Warmest Regards, Cecil

Dear Norman Under the Flying Star concept, a house will not change its birth chart unless one does a major renovation. Thus for example if one's house currently has a double 7's, this house will continue to enjoy double 7's after 2003. In 2004 (after Chinese New Year's day), this house will continue to have the same birth chart. Only after a major renovation, we will need to re-chart the house to a period 8 house. In so doing, with a new chart, the 7's may not be where it is anymore. The house will thus have a new birth chart based on Period 8 after the major reno. For example a Period 6 house built in 1980 currently will still have a period 6 chart in period 7. Even in …

Dear Tervino, Please see below:- In this case, both 5 earth and 3 wood are bad. So you need to control the two The system analyses two elements at any one time to make sure that it captures the essence of each problem. To control 3 wood, Metal is a good cure. 5 earth can also be controlled by Wood element. So in this case, 3 Wood happens to control 5 earth already. However, 5 Earth is left uncontrolled. Metal which is available in 7 Metal (mountain Star) and yearly star 7, will help you balance the sector, as Metal also exhaust earth and destroy wood, thus is the solution for this sector. In your case, this sector has now balanced itself. So no further cure is really…

Dear Tervino, Please see below:- Usually the report will tell you if there is a mountain star available and it is only found in the 20-year star. The rules to activating the stars is simple, mountain stars often is activated in the sector which is a solid wall (there should not be a window here otherwise you cannot activate this sector.) Also, the next rule is that it has to fall into a room, best to be a bedroom, study room. Living room can also be activated except often, if necessary the living room usually has another star Water star to activate with water feature. As the living room is often considered a large open space. Also the mountain star should not be activ…

In your case, 6 strong metal does already control the 4 weak wood. However, as mentioned the report analysis only two stars at any one time. 6 metal has to accomplish two task here, to destroy the weak wood and to exhaust the earth. So often in such situation more Metal helps it. And since in the current year the 6 metal comes in again, it does fullfil the need to help the other 6 metal to destroy and control the elements. This is because I had factored in the problem here that the Wood is a strong wood and not a weak wood. And usually for such case, we often prefer to use the exhausting element which is Fire in this case. It is a little more effective than Metal. Met…

Dear Jocelyn, Please see below:- Thanks for your encouraging words. Usually, by default, where your house has the door / house number that door should be the main door. However, in recent practices, many a times the main door may not be the door which most of the people use to go into the house, thus, as the owner or the person staying in that house, you do not encourage the chi or luck if you do not use that door. Thus, in such cases, you should then consider the use of the most frequently used door as the main door of the house. Also, usually, for those house owners which have two doors, they have an additional advantage of having two door choice (or two house f…

Dear Angelina, When the proposed solution is to make use of wood to destroy and control earth: 1. If it is the living room, you can use `wood' elements like a potted plant = wood element or use a decorative object made of wood at this location. 2. If it is in the bedroom, you can consider placing a side table and on it a wooden decorative item or a `wooden' lamp.

Dear Tervino, Please see below:- Red items can be like what you mentioned a red cloth for example covering the table. Since the item is for curing wood, the best type of cure is a red packet with 6 coins. By default it is automatically determined that 6 is strong metal while 7 is weak metal. And it is often not very good combination to have these two elements together as it creates a natural clash of the metal like a big sword vs a small knife. do we use 6 coins or other metal? Usually, the most of the problems can be solved by the use of the 6 coins either tied with a red string or a red packet. This will usually do the trick. This has been proven to be a rat…

Dear Peter, Please see below:- Let's take an example: Period 7 is from 1984 to 2003. Assume that a period 6 house that was built in 1982. So what happens to the Flying Star Analysis for this Period 6 house? If there are no major renovations done to this Period 6 house, it will still continue to have the birth chart of a Period 6 house i.e. #6 at the center of the chart. The same goes for any other houses built in Period e.g 4, 5, 6. Thus for a Period 7 house; assume that it was built in 1986. If there are no major renovations done after it was built i.e. 1986 and until 2004; it will still be considered a Period 7 house. Only when you do a major renovation e.g. in th…

Dear Durelle, For a North 0/360 house under period 6: 20 Year Flying Star Chart for the North sector:- 5 7 2 Yearly star for the North Sector 5 2 For this sector: "Make use of Wood to destroy and control Earth" In general, for the interest of those who are not familiar with Flying Star: #5 (Bad Earth) represents Misfortune, Sickness while #2 (Bad Earth) represents Sickness. Based on the preliminary finding under Flying Star, indeed the North sector of the house is not inauspicious. In practise, one should also consider and neutralise imbalances of all other sectors. Equally important, is that the house must also suit the home owner plus it has also to be analysed in rela…

Dear George, Usually, the office expansion should change the birth chart of the house. In such a situation, it is advisable to use the newer period i.e. Period 7 (1984 - 2003). Sometimes, we also plot the Period 6 chart. Here, it is looked at in relation to the Period 7's chart. Warmest Regards, Cecil

Dear Josephine, Please see below:- If you have a sketch (proprotionate size, location of windows etc..) of the layout plan and attached to this forum, I would be glad to take a look at it as it is currently difficult for me comment. Overall, it is best to give top priority to the placement of your desk based on Shapes and Form principles. Only after you have satisfied this condition that you look further into:- 1.2 spending more time at a good sector (if possible). 2.2 only after looking at it from Shapes and Form and Para 1, you then look at which direction is good facing direction for you. Usually, a pair of tigers would be more appropriate rather than a lone ti…

Dear Jo, The key thing to remember about the Eight House Theory is that the more one spents time at a good sector the better. Even if the sector is a good sector but, one does not spent time at, thus, it does `not apply' i.e. there is no beneifical effect on a person. Under the Flying Star Theory, most importantly, although it is your loss or legal problems area, you have to check the elements at that sector e.g. the mountain / water star and the base number to see if there are any imbalances. If there are imbalances, one has to cure it. Once this is done, in general we have balanced that sector. Warmest Regards, Cecil

Dear Elena, Usually when one wants to deal with the month it can get pretty messy and complicated. So the easiest way is to relate the monthly to the yearly analysis and to your base star. More importantly look out for where the star 5, 2, 3 (or any bad stars falls). This is based on the `Exception Principle.' Where it is better to focus on `exceptions' and if they do happen i.e. 5, 2 and 3 do take precaution! For the layperson, usually no further cures are needed as the 20-year and yearly stars cures are sufficient for analysing a sector. Warmest Regards, Cecil

Dear Jo Yong, Yes, a major renovation will change the birth chart of a home. For example, if a home was constructed under Period 5 to say this current period i.e. Period 6. As the term suggests, it has to be a major renovation. Examples of major renovations include:- 1. Alterations in a home such as hacking of walls especially the bedroom walls. 2. For a landed property housing, removing the roof of the house changes its birth chart. 3. Combinations of Para 1 and hacking of floor tiles / replacing them. 4. More `technical' method such as repainting the ceiling is symbolic and used by some FS practitioners as a `cheap' alternative which was felt to `symbolically' alter the…
