Feng Shui Tips & Guidelines

Dear Master Cecil, we bought a new period 8 north1 bungalow. It has 2,9,5, 7,4,9, 9,2,7, in the front. The front door is in between North and North-East sector, and the master bedroom is in between the North-West and North sector. Is this a good house to stay? Or there are ways to rectify the bad stars? thank you. susiechong

Yes, in my opinion; just wrap it up old newspaper and either keep it away or throw it away. Such things always never place it near to ancestor tablet.

For example, if someone is seated on the THRONE, the legs may get in the way of the swing door. Don't let an accident wait to happen. Touch wood, it may not be so; but prevention better than cure. In case another family member rush in; push hard on the door while another family member is doing some business on the throne.... See illustration.

Subject: How to properly place a pair of Chinese Stone Lions We have seen many pictures of buildings with the Lion figurines. In many of the ancient Chinese buildings, one hardly notice that:- 1. The Male Lion 1.1 This Lion sits on the left side of the building. 1.2 The Male Lion will have it's mouth open. Showing in traditional Chinese society, MALE is `dominant'. 1.3 It is holding a ball. 2. The Female Lion 2.1 It sits on the right side of the building. 2.2 It has it's mouth closed. Here, the FEMALE is considered submissive. 2.3 The Female Lion holds a lion cub. You can view the pair of MALE and FEMALE lion under this URL: http://www.geomancy.net/mypictures/cgi-bin/myp…

Always ask yourself, first. Has this to do with pure common sense? Rather than rubber-stamp it as pure Feng Shui? As this is a bungalow house and it's own compound. Some owners decide to plant a prickly plant at strategic locations like corner of the home to deter would-be thieves.

Dear Elena, This is an illustration of a `Four combination house' which comprises two Sets of `Two houses' which are out of balance:- Please see below:- Yes, you are correct. One cannot place a water feature on a public road in front of such houses. Thus, this is overall considered a `bad layout'. To lessen the blow, it is utmost important for the main door to be `protected'. Another method is to place a water feature (if there is sufficient space in the frontage of each house to balance the house. This should reduce the `impact' for a specific house but not for it's neighbours unless they do the same. Another method most commonly used is to use the Ba Gua mirror (…

Poison arrow from clubhouse roof-line. When I visited The Botannia @ West Coast recently; The trees have grown so high that they are higher than the roof-line of the clubhouse. As such, the sharp lines of the clubhouse roof-line no longer pose a threat to the 4th storey units...

Poison arrow from hanging lamp post balcony light (Self-inflicted poison arrow) or "score own goal"

Although generally, best not to use arrow-heads; however, for a landed property where the fence / gate is a distance away from the actual home interior; this is not as bad when compared to those found on grilles of windows...

Poison arrows from neighbour's bamboo poles

Apologise for the "misleading" title of this tip. Actually, this is a quote from Singapore's Minister of State (Trade and Industry and Foreign Affairs), Mr Raymond Lim. " I think one of our problems is that we are very impatient people and that it is the instant tree approach. You know, in Singapore, when you want to have a tree, you don't sort of grow it slowly. Just take a tree and plant it and get an instant tree" Mr Raymond Lim Many of us can draw a parallel, in " Fast Food Feng Shui "! How true his statement for everyone in the world indeed!

1. Please see attachments. 2. In one of the attachments "in red": A, B, X and Y. 2.1. Originally, the recommended altar 1st choice position was in position A. Or at worst position B. 2.2. Client asked whether she could position the altar at location Y. In the illustration; one can see that if the bedroom door is in an open position; the pillar at marking X would become a poison arrow (sha qi) aimed towards the proposed altar location. Which is not ideal.

Q: Ok to have a short pelmet above the master bed like this?Reply: Although not load bearing..but often; many relatives or friends may say no good.

Can you explain?” If like this; then I might as well now say that it is bad, bad, bad. Here, this is no longer scientific; but rather... one’s feelings.. (feeling uncomfortable with it.. after hearing bad things from so many close persons about it).
