Dear Master Lee:
How important is the birth element of your house i.e. wood, earth, metal, etc.... in a fengshui house audit ?
Also, how do you determine the birth element of the house. Is it the sitting direction or the facing direction of the house ? Is there a list of the birth element that goes with the 8 directions ?
If so...could you please let me know where I can find it ?
Thank you,

Dear Dominique,

A good example is the " Finding a Good House Report " at http://www.geomancy-online.com
It looks into three dimensions:-
1. A 360 degree overview of the Flying Star or Xuan Kong Feng Shui at every main entrance of each of the 24 directions (mountains).
2. In addition, the Eight House directions is also compared with Para 1 and Para 3.
3. Personal Ba Zi of the breadwinner i.e. element and strength in relation to direction of the main entrance.
4. Overall, the best house is one where all 3 (Para 1, 2 and 3) are favourable to the breadwinner.
5. If this is not possible, then at least, Para 2 and 3 are suitable or mildly suitable.
6. Often, for Para 1, it can still be cured i.e. Xuan Kong Feng Shui - bad influences can be neutralised.
7. The main objective is to focus on the exception.
For main door direction, we base it on:-
