I'm happy to have this website to ease my mind during our house-hunting purchase. In general, do I walk away from a bad house number, even if the front door faces in my husband's and my excellent position? Or can a bad house number be corrected through further paid analysis? House in question has the Star 6 & 7 crossing paths in current house period (8), spelling disaster. Thank you so much.

Dear Becky,

To be honest, if you are referring to the "House-number" report, it is meant more for high-rise apartments.

This house number report is based on "Vertical-flying" Star Feng Shui. As the term "vertical" suggests, it has to do with buildings or apartments on different floors.

This method is very popular especially in Hong Kong with high density of population living in flats or condominiums. And it is said that a high rise that is on the 6th floor or storey would differ in qi with another same unit on the lower or even upper floors.

Thus, if yours is a landed property, this "House-number" report should not be used. But rather, one should, if one knows how to construct a Flying Star Feng Shui chart do a "Horizontal" Flying Star or what is commonly known as the 20 Year Flying Star chart.

For landed property, many Chinese especially the Cantonese dialect group does not like house number(s) with number 4, or multiples of 4 such as No. 44, or No. 444 as it symbolies "death" in the Cantonese dialect.

Thus for landed property, house numbers would rather be associated with numerlogy than Feng Shui. And numerology is so wide and with so many differing interpretations. Frankly, it is anyone's guess, here. As some people e.g. find 13 inauspicious, but some find it OK.

Since Feng Shui is NOT Numerology, one must strictly separate the two as distinct. Furthermore, there are so many types of numerology, some based on Indian, Chinese, Western and much more ....

Warmest Regards,
Cecil
