These are further considerations: 1. It depends on the compass sector of the kitchen 2. The stove should often sit facing the female (wife's) favourable direction). 3. Frankly, a few lines of text can't do justice. 4. However, all I know from you isyousaid "the kitchen stove was facing a little of the kitchen door," and the threat that it will cause your earnings to be lesser than 50% on it's own merits is a blatant threat and one of the dirtiest tricks in the name of Fung Sway. 5. There are scientifc ways in the name of Feng Shui to assess such a situation. And it can't help that you keep on wanting to "squeeze out" information; where what you wrote were simple lines of text. How to?

1. Under symbolism, in Feng Shui, some geomancers felt that placing "living" things in the bedroom is not a good idea. 2. To them, "living things" including plants and flowers are considered yang. 3. And a bedroom is for rest = more yin condition. 4. Thus some geomancers are not in favour of having even a bouquet of flowers in the bedroom. 5. The above is based strictly on the idea of symbolism. 6. As there are three kinds of luck:- 6.1 Heaven luck (born with - Ba Zi) 6.2 Earth Luck (Feng Shui) 6.3 Human or man luck factors (own feelings) 6.4 all three equally divided gives 33.3 percent each of luck. 7. Some of us, perhaps, yourself feel very good about having such a bright coloured knitted item in your bedroom. If you feel great about it; this is generally fine as it comes more under Human or man luck factors. 8. For example, some people, don't have good ba zi; neither do they have good or excellent Feng Shui; but they have dynamism in the form of good Human or man luck factors. 9. Somethings for a family, bringing the family to a sunday brunch or meal is far better than the best Feng Shui money could buy... 10. Thus, if you feel happy with certain wordings.. there is no such thing as inappropriateness. Go ahead if it makes your day! What counts is having a good feeling and not rely too much on outsider's comments...

Please note that I mentioned that it is nice-to and not a must-have to sleep with the head facing a good direction. Another consideration is which sector is the bedroom, in. If would be even better if the sector the bedroom in is in your favourable sector. In reality, it is not like you have another bedroom to sleep in, right?

1. In my opinion, facing West is considered as "nice-to-have" and not a must-have situation. 2. Shapes and Forms is often the primary or first consideration. Here, how many of us sees a room and instinctively visualise where the bed-head would be... 3. Thus Para 2 should be the most important consideration even if it goes against Para 1. 4. The saying goes "one should not go against - nature or rather one's instincts" if you know what I mean!

1. Take a look at this link: http://www.geomancy.net/events/CDL_FS_Talk/talk_1_slide_19.htm 2. Frankly, you are only trying to apply "one miserable" concept of Feng Shui. 3. As the above link implies: there are many "styles" in Kung Fu and in Feng Shui; there are many concepts not just again : Feng Shui cannot rely only on the Eight House concept. 4. No wonder, drawing a parallel to Kung Fu, one would be beaten to a pulp if one applies one concept only... 5. The same goes, here.. 6. By "hook or by ...... " one has to apply more concepts then talk about realistic ways to either:- 6.1. Enhance qi and hey! 6.2. Also neutralise bad qi... The saying goes it takes two hands to clap..... 7. In today's modern Feng Shui:- 7.1. Shapes and Forms = a must have 7.2. Compass School: Eight house PLUS Flying Star 7.3. Ba Zi Feng Shui

In my opinion, there are two considerations: 1. Conservative School of Feng Shui: In general states that only if the foundation(s) are torn down and re-bulit on or after CNY 2004, then the site building has changed qi. 2. Liberal School of Feng Shui: 2.1. Recently we read of even more fantastic ways to "change" Period. One of which (my toes are still laughing out loud) is to move out and move in again in specific period maybe 1 year. Ha ha ha ha ha ha ha.... What a "sick" *joke* 2.2. Even if some who belong to the liberal school of Feng Shui; I believe those who are still sane and not senile would still say what you had mentioned: both baths and knocking down one wall on it's own will ever not change period.

1. Information about lamp post(s) http://forum.geomancy.net/resources/bbs/bbs-fishtankcure.htm and http://fountain.geomancy.net Para 2.1. to 2.12 as an alternative to the conVEX mirror, a fish tank in the house window directly facing the lamp post is a valid cure. 1.1. In Feng Shui there is no such thing as one sure method only. Often there are alternatives. 1.2. In real life, like the saying goes: All roads lead to Rome.. Even in Singapore, there are many ways to get to Orchard Road... You said: My house is also facing the gaps between 2 houses ? i.e. just opposite my house are two end-lots terrace and joint together, hence creating an ?alley? (from the side garden of the two end-lots). This 'alley' is all the way until the following street behind. Any Feng Shui advice on this matter? I shall furnish more images of this issue later on. 2. Yes, lines of text cannot do justice to anything...

In my opinion, such geomancers give Feng Shui a really bad name. And the dirtiest tricks they use are precisely what you mentioned, provide fear in the name of Fung Sway? Here, it is often not the solution, but rather, take his words literally with a pinch of salt. and lots of it!

In this example, born a few days difference from the earlier sample and this person is instead a "Weak Fire" person.

Further to what I had mentioned:- 1. The individual element depends on one's DAY of birth. 2. For example, everyone can be born in 1982 and considered as a METAL-ROOSTER. 3. This is too simplistic especially if one wants to apply it to an individual. This is also known as the dinasour method. If you are in the 1930's to 1970's and you can get tons of general books to tell you that you are a Rooster be it metal etc... 4. Thus, using the Year of birth as just like a baby or kindergarten type of analysis. 5. As one goes higher into middle school and graduate school; ba zi is based on as mentioned earlier more variables like DD / MM and more etc... 6. But ba zi is different. It depends on your DAY of birth. Thus one can be a water element or earth or metal or wood or fire again DEPENING on which day one is born. 7. Thus there is no right or wrong here. Just that how detailed or general the INPUT in is. 8. The saying goes: GARBAGE in GARBAGE out. GENERAL input; GENERAL output etc...

Frankly, what are you looking at? 1. For example, if you are looking at your GENERAL Chinese Horoscope,it is not wrong to say that 1982 is considered asa METAL-ROOSTER. Check out this Reference: http://www.lovesigns.net/horoscope/ayear/a60-80.htm 2. But if you are referring to BAZI then there could a difference. As Ba Zi takes into consideration: DD / MM / YY / HHHH and House of Life and House of Conception variables to come out with the findings. While under Para 1; you are only looking at your YEAR of birth. There ain't no DD / MM etc... etc... 3. Here, you are like comparing an Apple with a Durian. How can they be based on the same "source".

1. In theory, overall; the Finance industry is considered as belonging to the metal element. 2. Thus, from an industry stand-point; is is considered as not suitable to a weak wood element person. 3. In the past, a butcher is a butcher, a merchant is a merchant. And in the past, the industry often mimic the job scope. 4. Nowadays, often one can generally classify: The industry; one is in and the job scope of function one does. 4.1. Thus, although the industry (Finance = metal); you can further look into your job scope or function. 4.2. If your job scope is in the water element: e.g. such as Public Relationsor I.T. department; such careers beneifit the person according to the Five Elements concept. Here, water fuels wood element. 4.3. If your job scope is in the wood element: e.g. co-ordination, planning work... wood supports "weak wood" element is still better than "nothing".

No definitely not if you are taking a compass reading TOWARDS the SAME direction.

These are some considerations: You wrote: 1. if I can still activate both these stars with water and mountain feature, because star 7 is considered inauspicious now in Period 8 and I also have a base and annual star of 3(bad star) at the entrance area also, unless you meant that my house period 7 luck will continue into period 8 without any major renovation to change my house to Period 8. 1.1 In general, from 2004 to 2023, #7 and #7 x2s will continue to be a bad number: Theft and Robbery star. #7 = weak metal. 1.2 If there is an annual star = #3; this is considered as bad wood element. And under the Five elements concept: Water fuels wood. Thus, in theory, placing a water position is not a good idea. 1.3 Although water helps to reduce metal element but it can inadvertently fuel bad wood #3. 1.4. Activating "earth" or as you had asked: mountain (earth element) is acceptable in the above combination of stars. You wrote: 2. If I should not activate these no. 7 star but instead in need to place a cure, what cure should be placed here? 2.1 As the annual star will be changing shortly as CNY is just a month away; it has to depend on what annual star is at that location, if you want to fine tune the situation. 3. The North sector is also the Career sector and my husband is looking for a job since the loss in Sep, how can he improve his chances since I cannot have water feature at this location due to the affliction of annual and base star 3. How can I improve our wealth condition(I did not enjoy the wealth period of 7 because I was not aware of Feng shui to activate, etc) since I cannot activate the entrance mountain and water star or enhance the career sector. 3.1. In my opinion, what you mentioned North being the Career sector can be considered as "Kindergarten Feng Shui." If this is in the 1960's to 1970's and even early 1980's if one were told that North = Career sector; it would sound impressive and the person who provides this advice can be considered as some kind of smart alec Geomancer. 3.2. Today, with so many people (common people) who are well-read in Feng Shui principles: What you said can be considered as a Quack FUNG SWAY Master. 3.3. In the past, I had also commented that anyone who has a good command of writing: in any languange can simply write a Feng Shui book:- 3.4. For example: the book can contain something like:- Chapter 1: Introduction Chapter 2: North: Career Chapter 3: South-West Romance etc... 3.5. Go think about it.... Even you can write such a book and publish it... 3.6. Furthermore, you have noted that there are such things as Water# Mountain# and even annual# stars. So why revert to Stongehenge Feng Shui or Kindergarten Fung Sway of North = Career??? It makes no commonsense at all. 3.6. These are some of the best practices; be it for a DIYer or someone wanting to apply Feng Shui:- Feng Shui Triage Fix-the-Leak, First! Situational Approach The Concept of Maximizing Marks The Customer Engineer Concept The Three-Step-Approach

DId you see a cable (Power supply?) leading into a horizontal rectangular box or module directly behind the circular "mystery THING?"

Location: Somewhere around Taman Jurong, Executive Mansionette. 1. While walking towards a client's home; discovered a "mystery" object (see attachment). 2. This mystery object looks like a sailing wheel; but rather thick and in chrome. 3. I saw some module behind this object with something like a coaxial cable connected to it. 4. My client said that she could sometimes hear "noise" or "sound" coming from this object. 5. Does anyone know what the object is? 6. It is pointed towards the ground, so highly unlikely to be one of those satellite dishes... and furthermore it does not look like a sat dish... ???? 7. In addition, this home placed a rather huge around 5 to 6 inches diametre bagua mirror with a conCAVE mirror. See another photo. Concave mirrors are suppose to suck "wealth" or capture good scenery...

1. These pattern(s) of floor tiles has it's roots or origins with Islamic geometric patterns. 2. These tile patterns were popular in the early 1930's to 1950's.... 3. These two homes along Ceylon Road are using "replica" designs"... as often,due to wear and tear, misuse and renovations; many of the original tilesare long gone... 4. It is a pity that most of the homes have been stripped of their ornate wall tiles and beautiful facade! Like the home with the RED main door!

Does cure works both ways? YES / NO??

In countries dominated by or influenced by the Cantonese dialect group; No. 4 means "die" in their language. Thus 44 means "sure to die"... Thus, especially in Singapore, Hong Kong and Malaysia; often this MAY affect the resale value of SUCH a property especially for such Chinesepotential buyers...

It is commonly called the Red House Bakery http://infopedia.nl.sg/articles/SIP_611_2004-12-24.html

1. Under Symbolism in Feng Shui, horses: figurines and even paintings of horses have been used to symbolise: either making trips overseas and or promote sales.... 2. Here, in many Feng Shui books, some of the authors would say, place a horse figurine facing the main door. The rationale? Symbolism "travelling" be it for business or leisure. 3. Similarly some home that a painting of horses is placed facing a door, to symbolise going out to get sales..... sort of thing. 4. In a painting, always count the number of horses in the painting. In the past, I had seen paintings where there were even 999 horses.. In this painting... can you count how many horses are there? Nine?

1. Before CNY 2012:- 2011 Flying Star Forecast North 8 3 1 9 7 5 4 2 6 South Take note the following sectors:- Sickness Star this year is at South Misfortune/Sickness Star this year is at East Disputes/Quarrel Star this year is at North Education/Romance Star this year is at South-West Grand Duke this year is East, 90 Degree. - Avoid sitting facing the grand duke or disturbing him by having renovations. Location in Conflict is West. - Avoid having renovations done opposite the location in conflict. Source: http://www.geomancy.net/resources/yearly-forecast/fortunes-2011.htm 2. After CNY 2012:- 2012 Flying Star Forecast North 7 2 9 8 6 4 3 1 5 South Take note the following sectors:- Sickness Star this year is at North Misfortune/Sickness Star this year is at South-East Disputes/Quarrel Star this year is at South-West Education/Romance Star this year is at East Grand Duke this year is East-South-East, 120 Degree. - Avoid sitting facing the grand duke or disturbing him by having renovations. Location in Conflict is South. - Avoid having renovations done opposite the location in conflict. 3. In general, what you plan to do both before CNY 2012 and after CNY 2012 (especially at East) seems acceptable. You can look at the above guidelines especially the part about "avoiding" having renovations at certain periods and certain sectors as a guideline.

1. You can use the Search feature on the left right frame of this forum to search for things like: "Change to Period 8" on past resources. 2. In my opinion, what you have described often does not change your house to a new Period. 3. Changing the stove alone to chnage the house period should again in my opinion to be taken with a pinch of salt. The saying goes.. if it sounds so good... it may not be far from the truth....
