Dear Anon, 1. Practical or applied Feng Shui does not come about like what you had mentioned. 2. Recently, I got calls from potential clients worried about how their new condo could be turned topsy turvy with Feng Shui. 3. One potential client mentioned that, there were so worried to engage the same Feng Shui practitioner as their relative. This was because, the Feng Shui practitioner asked them to tear down the newly built wardrope and kitchen cabinets. Of a new condo. 4. These are similar concerns echoed by at least 3 more callers that I had received. Hmm... in my opinion, doing so is indeed a waste of money. And quite a desperate move. Which is never fruitful. On the c…

Hello, I am trying to decide between two apartments, A or B... Both are 2-story loft apartments built in 1985. I've tried to understand the info you have provided but am not sure which unit has "better" feng shui. I would greatly appreciate your assist! => A is 500 sq ft with it's own entrance (townhouse style), no one above or below but does share the SE wall with neighbors. There is a wooden staircase with 13 steps and back risers that shares a landing with the front door, but the front door is perpendicular to the stairs and there is a smaller entry 'mudroom' on an angle (the stairs do not face directly to doorway). All is made from wood, hardwood flooring…

Dear Anon, Please see below:- For the Chinese, it is preferable that the ceiling fan where possible is not black. White or gold is fine. Do you find it uncomfortable? If so, you may like to change it. Purple represents the Fire element and it would normally depend on your Ba Zi. For a room, unless one has a need for the `Fire element' e.g. if a person is a weak wood person and staying in the room, can use the `Fire' element to help his/her weak wood to grow. Warmest Regards, Cecil

Dear Anon, There is a logical reason why anything higher than a side table is not advisable. This is because if you look at the shelf at the side, the scorner closer to the bed will form a poison arrow which cuts into the bed. Since both side cuts into the bed, it is like an X. Which is bad feng shui. So not recommended. Even if you replaced it with a table, the same effect will be created unless you ensure that where you sit the poison arrow will not cut you. And/or at least if the corners are rounded, then not as bad. Hope that helps. Warmest Regards Robert Lee GEOMANCY.NET - Center for Applied Feng Shui Research

1. In general, many people perceive a temple as a "depository". For example, it can be a depository of hope i.e. people go into the temple to pray or seek help from the gods... Agnes C. wrote: Dear Master,myhouse is located beside the temple then someone commented that my house fengshui is not good.....pls.master advise me 2. Frankly, it takes one or two comments by others be it friends, passer-by or family members to make us feel very uncomfortable. 3. Commonsense Feng Shui 3.1 Pollution It was reported recently that some Singaporeans developed lung cancer from frequently breathing in incense smoke, daily from praying to their gods e.g. Guan Yin etc...

1. If the bedroom is occupied by husband and wife, http://wiki.geomancy.net/wiki/Master_Bedroom:_Which_side_must_I_sleep_on In the above link, for example, the Master Bedroom is located in the South-West sector of the home. Under the Eight House concept, SW is suitable to the Mrs (her longevity) sector. While SW to : Mr is his death sector. If the master bed is placed as shown in the illustration; Mr should sleep closer to the master bedroom door, while Mrs, sleep closer to the "toilet" area. 2. Here in this example, therefore:the master bedroom is located at South-West (SW) compass direction. If the bed-head is placed in this position, MRS should sleep closer to th…

Dear Jeanette, Yes, it is preferred that a water feature does not face the main entrance. This is because, this is symbolic of wealth flowing out of the home. If you intend to install a granite wall feature, try to avoid a highly polished granite or marble wall. Since if it is reflective, it is like a mirror. Where under Feng Shui, a mirror facing a main door is not favourable since, it is considered as even before 'wealth" or qi comes into the home, it is deflected out of the home. (Under commonsense approach to Feng Shui, a highly polished granite wall -- is not favourable. Since, once we enter the home, we may --inadvertenly (while in deep thoughts) see an "image"…

Dear Lindsey, To test whether the power pole is a threat, stand at your main door or the window. And look out of it. If the power pole is tangent to or seem to slice thru the main entrance door or a window, then this is a threat. Else if one can still see the power pole but it does not seem to slice thru the main door (directly) then there is no threat. I.e. the power pole must be seemed to be slicing thru the main door or window. If the power pole is diagonal then there is no threat at all. For the property line, if you have a fence or a bush, then this would be better. Warmest Regards, Cecil P.S. graphic illustration of " No threat zone "

Dear Rich, Please see below:- ----- Original Message ----- From: "pillars-of-destiny Listmanager" To: Sent: Tuesday, August 22, 2000 7:21 AM Subject: Bed placement and opposing doors and windows The concept here is to get Qi to meander slowly circulating into the room. The most effective method is as you mentioned is to use a screen closer to the door area so that Qi that comes in thru the main entrance can slowly meander into the house. - Usually this is the best method. The screen in such a situation need not be full height but it should at least cover 3 quarters of the door (height). There are other alternatives like closing this side of the window so that Qi do…

Dear Master Lee, Could you advise if a house situated on a gentle 'V' shape road is fine? Some say it is best to be on a flat road. Is it fine for a house (not the last unit) to be situated along a dead end?

1. In my opinion, it is always good to do some research rather than depend frequently on "spoon feeding" info as a frequent forum user. 2. For example, the bigger picture includes the concept of "sum of ten", "pearl string". Which is part of some of these SW1 or NE1 flying star combinations. And the concept that there is no such thing as a perfect home in every way. 3. If you have gone thru some of my past messages, I have also warned of ill but correctable health e.g. for NE or SW homes.

Hi Master, I would like to seek your advise in the placement for the altar at my new home. The place I have in mind is the one positioned at A, but understood from other threads that you would advise deities like Guan Gong for main door positioning instead. Could you please advise where is a suitable place that I can place the altar table? I am only intending to put a Buddha figurine. Look forward to your advice and thank you master. James

Hi Master, Will be shifting house soon but had a hard time to decide where to build an altar for Kuan Yin in my new place. Hope can seek ur help in it. Is there anything I need to observe when shifting Kuan Yin to new location? I read in your forum that we need to consume vegetarian on the day of shifting as well as the day before. Another thing is that I have some items of Feng Shui from my current house, is it advisable to bring over to my new place or leave them for the new owners?

Dear Anon, You can view this actual picture of a building in Singapore that is named Fu Lu Shou. It has the three deities or figurines: http://my.geomancy.net/mypictures/cgi-bin/imagefolio.cgi?direct=Buildings/Commercial_Buildings/Fu_Lu_Shou If you see the pictures carefully, Fu Lu Shou is `displayed' on the external wall from left to right i.e. Shou or Longetivity is on the far left. (This is where you stand in front of the building.. looking at the building). In the same instance, the figurines should be displayed from left to right. Warmest Regards, Cecil

Dear Kay, 1. Placing the figurines in the living room is indeed the most common location. 2. In my vast experience visiting Chinese homes, I have observed that the Fu Lu Shou figurines are typically placed on a display table, often on an open shelf. This practice is widely followed. 3. Placing the figurines under a waterfall is not a common tradition. 4. While some may pour virtual water on the figurines, I personally do not recommend this as it is best to stick to traditional customs. 5. It is crucial to ensure that the figurines are not placed below a beam and to adhere to other guidelines such as avoiding placement on the opposite wall of a toi…

As a rule of thumb; often it is said that best not to let the STOVE face the window (if one can / could avoid it). As for the rest of what you had mentioned; sink and fridge; this is considered acceptable. It would be nice-to have the oven not face the window or face a bedroom door.

1. In general, the main key success factor of a home that wants to tap the sum-of-ten should have as rectangular or squarish home as possible. 2. Under Para 1, the best case senario is a helicopter view where the entire outline of the home is rectangular and squarish. Thus, in essence, the 9 sectors can be "magnified" by this sum-of-ten for all 9 sectors. 3. Another key success is to have as much open space as possible within the 4 walls of the home. 4. Thus, from the above, the key success has more to do with macro Feng Shui then micro Feng Shui. Thus, be it a 1 level (storey) or 2 storey home, the best senario is still Para 1 (full stop). 5. The above is the key es…

Dear Anon, The placement of the stove should be placed based on several `rulesets' and it differs in each layout. Ideally, under Shapes and Forms Feng Shui, it is good to have the stove face inwards of the main door. On landed property, it can still be on a side wall (to maximize the layout plan of a kitchen). Besides this, other `rulesets' apply:- 1. Where possible, the stove should not face a toilet door 2. It should not be placed with an open window. The wall behind the stove should have a solid backing. 3. where possible (especially if the stove is located at the North compass direction) of the house, it should not face a water position direction (or in line with it).…
