- Mix the rice and green beans together. (Leave a "cup-full" of green beans - for later placement at the living room area).

- During this procedure, make sure that no outsiders are inside the home.

- For example, if it is a condo, the condo facilitator must leave the apartment. Own family members can remain eg. parents).

- The purpose is to "sow" wealth into the apartment. Thus, it is not a matter of sprinkly lots of rice/beans but rather, try to sprinkle all over the apartment inclusive of the toilets/yard.

3) Prepare FA GAO (x2 pcs - can be brown, yellow or pink). If white colour FA GAO make sure that a circular red paper to be stuck/placed on top of the FA GAO.

- Place one FA GAO in the middle of the room

- while the other FA GAO with 3 oranges and 1 red packet with some money e.g. 2 dollars, 20 cents or 80 cents will do - on top of the kitchen stove.

4) Prepare 5 types of FRUITS (include the PINEAPPLE, ffice:smarttags" />ORANGE/ KUM, RED APPLES, RED GRAPES, BANANA). AVOID: PEARS ONLY.

- Grapes should preferably be purple or reddish. But not green or black coloured grapes.

- for countable fruits such as oranges (Kum) & apples please purchase 5 each to be placed in the middle of the living room. For a bunch like banana, or grapes, no need to count.

5) Prepare TEA LEAVES (tie kuan yin) and place it in the middle of the living room.

6) Prepare COTTON WOOL, WATER and a DISH for germinating the GREEN BEANS and place it in the middle of the living room.

Item# 3 - 6 : These are to be placed at the middle of the living room.

7) In addition, at the 4 corners of the LIVING & DINING room, place a set of 2x ORANGES + 1x Red Packet of 20cts - total : ORANGES x8 + RED PACKETs x4

8) In addition, at the KITCHEN, place FA GAO x1 and ORANGES x3 on the stove.

- with an ang pow with 20cents or 2 dollars or even number notes/coins will do.

- Do not sweep the floor on the three days of placement. For example, if placed on Saturday, only sweep the floor after Monday i.e. from next Tuesday onwards ONLY.

- After this date, all the ang pow money can be used to purchase sweets or sweet-drinks for own family consumption.

This has nothing to do with Feng Shui. But rather, Chinese culture.

All the above procedures have one time in common: "Symbolism". Symbolism: in "depositing" wealth into one's new home!

Whenever possible, I always try to assist new clients in their first time open door procedure. Will help outside their unit until all the procedures have been completed then, go in with the Chinese Luopan to take a reading.

This two photos shows some of the items thathave been "readied" for the client. However, in one of the pictures: OOPS!Can you see a large "blue bin?" The client was over zealous and instead of just a few scoops of green beans mixed with rice,they brought an entirehuge bowl of mixed green beans and rice! Oh Gosh!

In the second picture, you will also notice that I always bring along a folderable seat to make myself comfortable during the entire process!

Attachment with comments on it.

1. Red for the Chinese means auspicious. Thus all fa gao(s) see attachment below must have "red dot(s)" or in the past, a red piece of cut-out paper stuck on the top of the fa goa.

2. Fa Gao comes in various colours. In Singapore, the most common colours are this brown colour. Other popular colours are orange (which represents gold) or pink colour. Rarely white is used. As white represents "death". Even if white is used, it has to have the red dot(s) on it or a again a red piece of paper stuck on the top of the fa gao.

3. Nowadays; smaller sized fa gao; meant more for eating also comes in the popular "pandan" green colour.
