Dear Anon & Emily, 1. Certainly, this is one of the most contentious areas within the practice of Feng Shui. 2. Nevertheless, to reduce this issue, I prefer to delve into various important aspects, so that by the conclusion, everyone can gain a clearer understanding. 3.It is imperative for us to grasp ideas such as: 3.1 Facing and Sitting directions 3.2 The "Mouth-of-the-house". 4. These two are related. 5. In many cases, the main entrance of a landed property is considered to be the "mouth of the house" due to its location facing the frontage. This is a common occurrence as we typically approach the front of the home by driving up to i…

1. This reference chart proves to be a valuable tool in distinguishing the colors associated with each of the Five elements. 2. Additional factors must be taken into account: A. YELLOW COLOUR 2.1. Yellow can be classified as either the Metal (Gold) or Earth element at times. 2.2. The Earth element is mainly linked with the color yellow. Pay attention to the texture of the material.

Nevertheless, if the material is shiny or contains "shiny" gold or gold-like threads, then it may be associated with the Metal (Gold) element instea…

(Not a must do, thou).

@ Evergreen Park at Hougang Avenue 7 Any negative energy or harmful structures that may affect the living space? In the search for a new apartment, it is important to be mindful of any negative energy or harmful structures that may affect the living space. In the case of Evergreen Park at Hougang Avenue 7, the spikes on the open air carpark do not pose a threat to the 2nd storey apartments. This is fortunate as if there were apartments on the ground level, the trellis spikes could have created a poison arrow effect towards many of the units. Thankfully, this is not the case here.

These are some other considerations when determing the "facing direction" (which may not may not necessarily standing inside the main entrance door looking outwards):- 18. Historical precedence 18.1 As mentioned earlier, for a home that was stayed in for sometime: with some history; a few flying star chart could be plotted to see which is more accurate. 19.

In General, these are the considerations or pairings of roof tile colors and exterior wall finishes:- 1. If possible, it is advisable to avoid a BLUE roof. According to the I-ching, blue symbolizes difficulty, and if it covers the entire roof, it resembles water above you. 2. If a blue roof MUST be utilized, then the exterior walls should be white or off-white, but never cream or beige. 3. If a grey roof is chosen, the optimal choice for the exterior walls is white. Grey exterior walls are acceptable, but if a grey roof is used, cream or beige walls should be avoided. 4. According to the current Feng Shui period, the most favorable colors are earth ton…

Date: Monday, 26 April, 2010 12:32 PM Dear Master Cecil, My most sincere apology on my ignorance to Feng Shui.

1. To be frank, I have the latest Suunto solid aluminium compass set for Region 3 (Singapore and the equator). 2. But still; one major flaw is that whenever I am in a building with lots of steel rods for support (look at it this way: all modern high-rise uses re-inforced steel for building support!) 3. Surprisingly, such a low technology or LOW TECH brass compass is my saviour ... when I am deep in a large building that has odd shaped floor space and entrances much like those mega or hype buildings. 4. Many industrial buidlings have even more steel in their structures to support the higher Per Newton Kilo load. 5. This attached brass compass which I bought at a c…

1. Frankly, what you mentioned: facing NE or SW vs Eight House is just the top of the ice-berg. There are so many other considerations, first. Reyla F. wrote: Hi , master Cecil! We have the opportunity to build a new home that is either face NE or SW. Problem is, my husband and i are both East (4 & 9) group. What can we do? Which would be better for us? Also, as I am trying to practice and apply remedies to our current home, I get confused as to which one should take precedence or which one should I give more weight, the annual stars or the natal chart of the house? Thank you and I look forward to reading your sage advice. 2. You might like to look at this art…

1. In my many encounters with various clients: parents with young children and parents with teenagers:- 1.1. In this attachment; see how teenagers and young children view their world especially that of their home. 1.2. For example; young children are very innocent and think differently from us adults and teenagers. In this attachment; there are quite alot of children be it timid or love their parents madly (who does not!): If they were given their say; some would position their bed-heads close to the bedroom door: so that they can be 'as close" to their parents as possible. 1.3. If can no longer sleep with you; they want to phsycially sleep with their heads and eye…

This is an interesting useful case study. (No names mentioned.) CASE STUDY: In essence, the question is about "Can I manipulate the Flying Star Chart of this home for the best facing direction of the main door?" Thus: What is the purpose of the 15 directions if it so easily be manipulated much like "window dressing" to make ourselves feel good but in reality.. it is not so? QUESTION: I would like to have further clarifications before generating the flying star house report for this person. In fact, both East and North facing direction of the main door of the house that this person stay in, happen to fall under the 4 bad directions according to the person's bazi a…

The Very Best of Luck with your manyFeng Shui endeavours Judith L. wrote: Dear Master Lee, Thank you so much for your very comprehensive answer. It was very helpful indeed! The yearly planning "gurus" always tell us to look at where we are now-- but I guess we must look at the past to even know where we are! Looking at the charts with the added perspective of your explanation has made it so much clearer. Looking at it now, there is no question of which chart to use (Period 6 ) as past events and occurrences fit more with one than the other.. What you wrote above, enforces the "pro" "hot" camp that the most effective or 100 precent method of changing an exis…

1. In Singapore, this fact is not widely recognized or publicized. 2. When I first began practicing Feng Shui many years ago, I was fascinated by the auspicious measurements of the main entrance doors in the First Generation HDB flats. 3. Disregarding the grille gate of this particular home, the width of the entrance is considered auspicious according to the Feng Shui Ruler. Even when taking into account the support frames on both sides of the main door, it remains auspicious. 4. The origins of this phenomenon are unknown. It is possible that it occurred unintentionally. It is likely that a Chinese furniture maker or manufacturer was assigned to design an e…
