    • 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.
    This year, homes sitting west facing East must take extra precaution.
    The trigger or fuse is to do major renovations at East. If so, dire consequences such as calamity and ultimate bad luck could occur for East facing homes. Sitting East facing West; should equally be concerned especially terrace homes.

    Further to what I had mentioned; the chief concern really is if a run-away vehicle : should it plow thru into the home; what damage (and calamity) it may cause.
    As there is a higher probability of such a thing happening e.g. a runaway Toyota vehicle with stuck gas paddle or a drunkard.
    Thus, this is one of the reason for avoiding a direct path of "qi" towards the home such as from a T-junction.

    1. Reference on the stove: Kitchen Stove & Moreor http://wiki.geomancy.net/wiki/Kitchen_Stove_%26_More
    2. The kitchen is the domain of the woman of the house. And under the Compass School, it should best sit and face one the the woman's best direction (if possible).
    3. However, if based purely on Shapes and Form's Feng Shui; then what you mentioned is a key cardinal rule of having the stove against the wall: not only to prevent splatter but also avoid "wind vortex" that could cause the flame to spill towards one's clothing (if it is placed on an island) or even worse, extinguish the fire.. and let gas built up.
    4. If a stove is to be placed on an island in the middle of the kitchen; then best to consider those electric ones or induction ones where flames does not come out of a hob.
    5. A stove facing a refrigerator is OK. As a refrigerator is considered as belonging to the metal element. But avoid having the stove face a water position such as a sink.
    6. In addition, it is best that the stove is separated by at least 12 inches from the sink.
    7. Yes, as for the drain line, best not to have the stove sharing the same wall as the drain pipe. Allowing the sink to be there is fine.

    place the stove against the

    runs along under that same

    currently). I'm
    concerned about the
    conflicting fire/water
    elements and the energy

    an open kitchen and that feels
    a bit unprotected.What is your

    Sorry, I thought exams are fixed by the examiner and not the other way around.
    In my opinion, if one has studied (smart) and well prepared for an examination; the date is not a major issue. Really; this is the first time I heard this kind of "self-select" exam date. A first for me!
    As for your feel that your husband may be cheating on you; you should perhaps consult your immediate family e.g. parents or very close friends to discuss what you could do. Often, direct communication with spouse could help to improve the relationship. When it comes to such a thing; best to consider professional help - don't keep everything inside of you.

    For your first question, so long as the steps leading to second storey is not directly seen from the main door, what you describe is generally acceptable. However, some may feel or rather be more conservativ and may want to play it safe, thus to cover it.


    For the second question, it has to do with commonsense. As often who wants to see the toilet when eating.

    1. In my opinion, it is difficult to comment with the limited information; available.
    2. Often, when it comes to the question of : Should I move? For many, the question posed is: will my new home be better or worse than the current home.
    3. For many (unlike yourself); perhaps have stayed in a home; not much fantastic Feng Shui luck; but still can scrape thru. What happens if the next home has worse Feng Shui; or similar to what you may have encountered?
    4. However, in your case; I am not sure how detailed the "Feng Shui" analysis and cures that was done previously.
    5. On your question of "how extreme to have to move": Currently para 4; is a real question mark; and you have indicated that it is beyond cures. And that you are facing many issues (tons of issues). Yet, you have mentioned that it is too extreme to move.
    6. In such a situation, it is always right to discuss amongst yourself especially with your partner (perhaps before things get worse); to decide on the future: stay put or move. If move (often, how bad can it perhaps be when compared to current situation?). Thus, you have to work it out and see what is best for you and your family.

    In my opinion, there is no precedence for selecting a business name unless it is in Mandarin.
    The rationale is that all Mandarin (Chinese) characters have specific number of strokes (based on the Five Elements) and also each character or combination of character (wording) symbolises something if possible auspicious sounding or phonetic sounding or a good word.
    Unless one converts and uses an auspicious Chinese company name or name "plate"; having it in any other language is a non-precedence.
    Furthermore, nowadays, in many countries, even if one selects a name, it has to be checked with the registrar of business to see whether has it being currently used.

    Reference: http://www.geomancy.net/info/initial-opening.pdf
    Under the procedure (the last Para 8.), it mentions that it is best to leave the items for 3 days or more. Thus if the procedure is done on a Tuesday, best to leave the items till Thursday, And should be removed only on or after Friday.
    But for instances where one has to start renovations immediately, then often it is left for at least 1 hour after the procedure is done. The items are eaten or THROWN away never given out to strangers - whatsoever; as this is symbolic of giving away one's wealth.
    For new homes or apartments, sprinkling slat may not be ideal especially for brand new condo units. As salt and later water may inadvertenly spoil the flooring especially parquet wood floorings.
    Frankly, there is no hard and fast rule nor rocket science associated with the procedure. Thus normally, it should be done after spreading the rice. And often, salt could/should/may be spread especially in areas like the toilet and kitchen. But again, do remember that too much salt is acidic and can discolour marble and wood .....
    Imagine this: If I do add "salt" into the procedure, there are always some who do not know the consequences - and even mistake sprinkling salt into new homes! Here, as I mentioned, try sprinkling salt onto parquet flooring.. and behold... one may get white spots on parts of the flooring...

    Sorry to hear about your situation.
    1. It is best that you feedback to your existing local geomancer. And ask the person for further advice as it is not like posting a few lines of text and then "worse-still" expect a miracle to happen.
    2. Even if you have been reading resources; it does not mean that it can be "wholesale" applied towards your situation: The saying goes: "a little knowledge is dangerous".

    Human or man luck or feel good factor usually far outweighs others:
    Many of us don't have good Heaven luck (born with) nor Earth luck (Feng Shui of the home). But those who have good human or man luck; will go far. FEEL GOOD, please!

    This is nothing new in Singapore: lots og greenery and the vertical "piano" wires that allow creepers to creep onto the sidewalls of some blocks. Creeper wires were also provided for the creepers to climb up to the snake like trellis. The green roofs at the roof deck helps to cool the temperative within the development.
    It has the usual playground, excerise station, jogging paths and community rest area.
    Within the individual units; the non-loading walls use of ferrolite partition wall system. It is suppose to help abosrb noise between rooms. This material is lightweight and cuts down on the use of raw materials like cement and sand.

    Treelodge, Punggol is Singapore's first publich housing (HDB) project witht the GREEN MARK Platinum award. This built-to-order HDB eco-precint launched in March 2007 has just TOP.
    At the common-ground; although it has a "snaking" trellis; the trellis does not seem to be pointed towards any of the flats. As the trellis are pointed below any dwelling (the dwellings are at level 2).
    In addition, even if the trellis spokes does point any any windows (if any); in some of the photos; the creepers have already began to cover these spokes very well. In the future, the creeps would act as a natural canopy in an eco-friendly way.

    even see the shadow of the

    slice into Stacks 28 and 29.
    3. I have re-attached the site

    As the stacks should be 28 and
    29 and not 26 and 29.

    The main consideration for the placement of the bed-head would be "feel good" or "feel bad" factor.
    As most of us feel more comfortable; as you had mentioned, with a clear view of the door then with no view; this is human or man luck factor. And, even if in theory, the no view direciton is good BUT, but, but... this should not be the basis to place the bed-head.
    Thus, one should go with what one feels comfortable with vs what is SUPPOSE to be good for us BUT, but and but.. kind of thing.

    Dear master lee, first of all,
    wish u happy new year.. I have
    one doubt on placing of our
    master bed. According to our
    Kua of 8, the recommended
    position of sleeping position
    is w, Nw, ne, and sw.
    Unfortunately, to have the bed
    to face the recomended
    position, we will not be able
    to have view of bedroom door.
    I read thru couple of fengshui
    book but didn't clear mention
    which is the preferred way:
    facing sheng qi direction
    (with no view of door) or face
    bad direction but with clear
    view of door? Would appreciate
    ur kind advice on this. And
    also my master bedroom door is
    facing the guest bedroom. Can
    we just close the guest room
    door to minimise the negative
    impact.. Ty so much..

    There are many concerns in the kitchen.
    However, as your question is specific to a stove sharing the same wall as the kitchen door; this area has much to do with two senarios:-
    1. Often it is not good to have the stove face an "opening" (or entrance). This should not be the case here.
    2. The other situation is related to commonsense. Here, should a fire envelop; it may burn the nearby cabinet and block "escape" out of the kitchen for anyone trapped in it. Or in an intense fire, smoke or flash fire can quickly engulf the home.

    Sorry, no offense or anything. Just to highlight - thou dramatically, that the New Year is no where near Chinese New Year...
    Yes, agree, we are international - multi-cultural.
    For the billion or so Chinese especially in China, their daily chores go on. While especially the week before CNY, wow! Many who work in the city would rush back to their hometown and spent at least a week at home.
    Oops! Although the Koreans do celebrate 1.1.2011; but this is also less important than the Chinese New Year (lunar new year). So I have to add a few more millions to this 1 billion population thing:....
    http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Korean_New_Year
    Closest to China; Only the Japs (Japanese) followthe Gregorian Calendar: 1.1.2011.
    Thus, for majority, it is a non-event. (Yawn)...

    Master Lee. Out of
    practicality (budget hurts of
    course) we celebrate both
    western new year and the lunar
    new year since we live in a
    multi-cultural
    society.Probably it would not
    hurt, if we will practice what
    we practice on a lunar new
    year on 1/1/11...More power
    and please keep your noble

    Oops! The most important date (for the Chinese) is the eve of Chinese New Year and Chinese New Year = the Chinese follow the moon (lunar calendar).
    Thus, this coming new year's eve or new year or start of 2011, has more to do with the western calendar. For example, if you ask an elder Chinese person, the date is not an issue.
    However, in modern times; due to commercialization; and the activities to celebrate New Year; younger Chinese like yourself come to see New Year as important.
    For the Chinese; thus eve of Chinese New Year holds special meaning: especially the reunion dinner; waiting for 12 am e.g. switching all lights in the home; (In the past, setting off fire-crackers..) And the actual Chinese New Year lasts 15 days with many holiday activites lasting as long as one can.
    Thus, unfortunately, for most of the Chinese: New Year or 1.1.2011is just but a "yawn" or another ordinary holiday. Apologies for spoiling your mood; thou. Just to make it a point, here that Chinese New Year still reigns supreme over and above1.1.2011. "Let's not forget it".

    Greetings Master Cecil.Master,
    can I ask
    what are the good practice to
    do this coming new year's eve?
    What
    particular fruits for display
    would be in favor and what to
    avoid? Can we do general
    cleaning on the day of new
    year's eve (tomorrow), or is
    it wiser to schedule it
    today?Thank you so much and
    have a happy new year ahead...

    :These are some of the considerations:-
    1. What you mentioned, below comes under another concept.
    2. Even under "that concept" mentioned above; rarely anyone follows it - unless one is truly a fanatic of such things. (That concept speaks aabout "being cautious" when travelling ..eg. south.. but in no where does it say you MUST not travel e.g. south)
    3. Under the 4 Good and Bad directions; only those who have "screws" loose or the lunatic kind may put the 4 Good and Bad + directions together and come up with such a (looney tunes) idea of LINKING the two together. This is no brain-storm. But rather this is instead a NO-brainer idea.
    4. Drawing a parallel to such things; say in Singapore, all males citizens are required to serve (mainly) in the army. And there is no such excuse as "green colour is inauspicious to me" sort of thing. You cannot be EXCUSED from army e.g. infantry or armour or guards batallion by saying that green colour is inauspicious for that person.
    5. BTW, Congratulations *JOKE* Since I started the forum and other subsidiary Feng Shui forum; (unfortunately) you are the very first to erh... link 4 Good and Bad directions literally with travel directions. No prize! Here! Hahahaha,,,,,

    Hello,I have a question after
    reviewing the 4 Good and Bad
    directions. Does that
    influence travel destinations?
    That means for example, if
    south is a "disaster" then one
    should avoid travelling south?
