Five Element Cures (Wu Xing)

1. You might like to refer to my most recent reply on what is the true meaning ofthe percentage of anelement. 2. Traditionally what is meant byan element be a 0% or too strong. You may like to refer to the posting:- http://forum.geomancy.net/phpforum/article.php?bid=2&fid=1&mid=23968&new= Above link with Topic: Elements missing Posted in: Discuss :: Free Advice (General Feng Shui) Posted on: Fri, 28 Nov 2008, 01:42 AM, 3. In general, the element thing is more rooted towards the Chinese and especially their new borns. 4. Here, some Chinese parent (e.g. the father and even the grand father) may play an active role. Where they would seek the advice of a g…

These are some considerations:- 1. Scientific or Hocus Pocus Fung Sway? 1.1. Scientific Feng Shui is about e.g. plotting a Flying Star chart to either enhance good qi or negate or neutralise bad qi. 1.2. Frankly, without drawing up the above, chart, might as well then go the route of Hocus Pocus Fung Sway. 2. Over-eating 2.1. In my opinion, placing a salt cure, here, there and everywhere is like a case of over-eating. 2.2. In the long term over-eating is unhealthy.... eat moderately... please. 3. Modern vs Ancient 3.1. In ancient times; an open jar of salt, water, copper coins is reactive... suppose to create ions... 3.2. In modern times; we now know of ions: both positiv…

Dear Tervino, Please see below:- 1. Under the Five Elements Concept, the idea here is that one should a balance (if possible) of all five elements. 2. Pillars of Destiny is a method used to deduce or find out the `breakdown' of the components of the Five Elements e.g. in a person. 3. In your case, you have been found to be a person with `strong wood' element. In such a situation, it is not always good to continue having `strong wood'. It has to be BALANCED. To balance strong wood, you can take advantage of METAL element. Under the destructive cycle of the Five Elements, Metal is said to destroy Wood. Since you have `strong wood', you can take advantage, by using METAL…

Dear Jason, You many need to double check if you selected weak earth. And for that module because the changes is very minor, sometimes you may be viewing the cached version either at your ISPs proxy server or your browsers cache, just refresh the page and you should be able to solve this problem. Basically, the first portion of the report tells you the inter-relationship between the other elements and your main element. The next portion tells you the detailed elements which are favourable or unfavourable to you. The table at the bottom of the report will provide some examples, as this portion is pretty complex, it will not provide every possible relationship instead provi…

Dear Rose, Thanks again for your observation skills! -----Original Message----- From: Listmanager To: Recipients of 'five-element-cures' suppressed 'five-element-cures' suppressed> Date: Saturday, May 08, 1999 4:24 PM Subject: 5-Element Associated Behaviours / Symptoms I have actually covered this in the Applied Feng Shui course. Briefly, this `observation' is based on the Yin and Yang theory. For example if you take salty food.. (which is Yang) you tend to need liquid (Yin). If a person sufffers a heart attack (Yang) one needs Rest (Yin). The above is based on the philosophy of Tai Ji. Yes, this makes sense. You have correctly explained it using the Five Ele…

Dear Violet, 1. You have a good point. Not all things that influence has more than 33.3% space. In general, many FS practitioners look at colours e.g. on a wall; curtains and bedsheets. And thus this is how the 33.3% "influence comes into being". 2. You are correct to say that small windchimes and bagua mirrors are small, yet do not occupy 33.3 per cent of space. These category of objects should be distinct from what was mentioned under Para 1. 3. Wind chimes In general, wind chime is suppose to help neutralise bad Flying Star numbers like #5 misfortune/sickness and various combinations of #5 with #2 sickness and /or with #9 fire element. As these elements: #5 , #2, …

I am totally agree with what you said,but my English is poor, sometiomes I don't know how to express my feeling,I just want to make some friends who can help me in my English and share the happiness with each other. __________________________________ share love,share happy,share useful information about http://www.diablo4shop.com and http://www.mmohome.com

Dear Michelle, Sorry, can you clarify how you derive " Water & earth in my living room " is it because one part of your living room has the Water (North) and I assume North East is the (Earth)? Usually when we apply the 5 elements concept we do not have a `pairing' like what you suggested e.g. earth or water, metal and fire. But rather, a more accurate way is check a person's main element and strength. For example if the person's main element is Strong Fire and his bedroom is located at the North. We can introduce the colour blue in his bedroom to cool down his strong fire. This is based on the Principle of equilbrium i.e. a person's element should not be either Stron…

Dear Davis, Please read below:- -----Original Message----- From: Listmanager To: Recipients of 'five-element-cures' suppressed 'five-element-cures' suppressed> Date: Saturday, May 08, 1999 10:13 AM Subject: Re: Applications of 5-Element Cures Yes, which is why normally I consider metal in your situation as neutral. Why? Simply because you are earth, in the cycle metal plays exhaution role. In another scenario it plays as destroying wood (your destruction element). In another role it plays as supporting to water. So you see at any one time an element has at least 3 different roles. It is good for you if you are strong, why? Because if you are strong earth, althoug…

Under symbolism in Feng Shui, artifical plants may be used to represent the wood element. Especially in a water feature or if a young couple has no time to water the plants everyday.

Dear Nana, Please refer to my most recent reply to a similar question on Apartment no. Looks to me like your home is a landed property. Do take note that the House Number Flying Star Feng Shui is meant for Apartments or High rise apartments. If your home is close to the ground - landed property, please do not use this report. Warmest Regards, Cecil

You are half-right i.e. technically Flying Star #3 is not suitable for a strong wood person. However, please note that Flying Star is about a home or office - immobile.

But Evil Flying star 3 is wood element. Wood element is not good for me as I am a strong wood person so that this star will be bad for me, right? Thanks a lot. Dv

These are some considerations:- 1. The primary concept is based on both the Five Elements concept and symbolism: 1.1. As per your previous concern:red represent the fire element. Other concepts include a square hole at the centre represents earth element etc... 1.2. the number #6 represents big metal. 2. You will not believe the variations or "grand mother" stories some geomancers would like one to believe:- 2.1.Some geomancers say: "You must use6 different emperorcoins" (e.g.coins minted under different emperors). 2.2 For example the attachment shows the 10 emperor /coins minted duringtheir rein: these emperors belong to say the Qing Dynasty... 3. Does the string of 6 "d…

Dear Rameshwaran, In my opinion, it is not correct to say that a Strong Fire person's `lucky element' is wood. In fact, too much wood is unfavourable to a Strong Fire person. Yes, a strong fire and weak fire e.g. partners can use binding elements. Warmest Regards, Cecil

Dear Anon, Anonymous wrote: The binding elements to get the two parties to be compatible or reduce conflict is Water & Earth. This means that the five element compatibility isn't the best match element. ie weak wood vs weak earth. weak wood destroy weak earth. So particularly bad for weak earth. The reason for the two elements is so that one element can strengthen one person and the other to strengthen the other person. ie. water & earth = water to make weak wood stronger, while earth to strengthen weak earth. There are also many other combinations you can choose:- ie. either wood & fire - ie wood strengthen weak wood, and fire strengthen weak earth. …

Dear Carrie, You can get a free reading of the birth element (eg. water, wood person) from the Daily forecast chart located at http://www.geomancy.net. This report is absolutely free. There is also a free pillars and five element at the http://geomancy-online.com. If you want more details or find out if the elements are weak or strong, then there is either a full Pillars of Destin Standard or Premium report or a simple "What's your personal Feng Shui element?" report. Hope that helps.

Dear Kwek Beng, 1. The reason for the two additional pillars House of Conception and House of Life is to give a more accurate analysis taking into account 4 more elements (x 2 stems and 2 branches). 2. The reading taking after analysing the House of Conception and House of Life should be considered instead of the `simpler' 4 pillar. Thus, you should take yourself as a weak metal. 3. Another rationale for this two extra `pillars' is because, only with these extra elements that combinations e.g. triple combinations may result if it occurs. Warmest Regards, Cecil

Dear Wanjun, Please make use of the online analysis to determine whether you are weak or strong:- URL: http://www.geomancy.net/reports/free-report/freerpt-element.htm Usually, ba zi day of birth is used to determine if you are what element within the year. As to whether you are a weak or strong element, that depends on quite a number of factors, ie seasons of birth, number of elements including the House of Conception & Life. The above link will analysed everything just as the paid report, so you will know for sure whether you are weak or strong. Hope that helps.

Hi, Please read below:- Actually, how fast a cure works depends on many situations, eg. the current luck of this year of a person, and how much other complications. We have seen cures work within a few days to several weeks, and for very difficult situation may be several months. It varies from person to person as mentioned above. These are BTB Feng Shui which normally incorporates some religious aspect, such asth the BTB buddish sect, which chant mantra. Not needed nor necessary for Traditional Feng Shui. Generally, the cures you have mentioned are mostly BTB type practices or using only Feng Shui practices based on static model. I will only comment on the …

Dear Ming Le, Frankly, at your "age" since you are a student, one is often totally have little say in where our bedroom / cum study area or location is. Thus, in my opinion, like the millions who had gone thru this stage, it is good to entirely "scrap" the idea of Feng Shui or the notion of it. In fact, many people like yourself has completed their studies successfully -- withou the notion of "Feng Shui". This is because, firstly, your room is a "tiny location" and as mentioned above, you do not have full control of your environment. It is best to look at the holistic approach to Feng Shui or the holy trinity of Feng Shui: 1. Heaven Luck 2. Earth Luck 3. Human or m…

Dear Anon, Please see below:- Usually, the plant(s) to be closer to the main door. Where possible, (and if possible), try to have a pair (on each side) of the main door. Since, it is not a standard placement, best to remove it. Normally, a look at an analysed Flying Star chart should be able to see if there are imbalances within that sector especially, if it is an excess of wood element or it being used to `fuel' excessive Fire. Warmest Regards, Cecil

Dear Sharron, No, it does not mean that. You can still wear red if you want to. Five elements is in itself a complex theory. One should try to gain balance from the various elements. For example, if from the Pillars of Destiny you find that you lack of Earth. Then the best personal cure to apply is to wear Earth colour clothings to gain back the balance. It is like saying a human body, should have a well balance food diet. Too much of sugar, salt, etc is not good right? But without any sugar and salt, your body will also complain right? So the essence of the Five Element is to allow a balance in you. This means that even if a certain amount of element is bad for you, this…
