Some Feng Shui is always based on commonsense or "cowsense". == Extract of past forum posting == For example, on the statement of "building a wall at the back to prevent qi from escaping ". In a commonsense approach, if we look at this from a wider picture, this seems a very good point. Not so much of the view that 'qi could escape" but rather, - once in a while, sometimes we read of landslides. Sometimes, even the best homes build on a stable foundation uphill, could not stand the force of gravity. Especially an unfortunate very heavy downpour (perhaps of several days) plus a weaked reinforcement. == End == Unfortunately, in this recent case of Christchurch, New Zeal…

1. This reminds me of several encounters with Doctors (surgeons / GP or specialists). 2. Feng Shui is not an "exact" science and there are as many different practises as there are practitioners. 3. Many doctors (were used) to studying say the human body and many books e.g. Gray Anatomy etc.. detail the exact body structure, muscles, organs. And these are or have to be reproduced "exactly". 4. And several of these Doctors tried to "learn" Feng Shui. And, like yourself, found difficulty as such! Therefore, the consolation is that you are not alone!

Glad that you enjoy the information on our website:- Gary Lim wrote: I have 1 question though. recently, i checked the Chinese Calender (Those with auspicious &inauspicious predictions) and it shows that 16th of december is a good day for shifting house. What you need to remember is that a typical chinese calendar DOES NOT personalise to any one person. So it is a general date that is supposed to be good or bad for everyone. In general, there are two ways to check an auspicious date:- 1. Just do a quick lookup in a Tung Shu or Chinese Alamac, and pick the date that is deemed aus…

1. There is no precedence in the past with regards to the dimensions of a namecard. However, you can check out this past forum message:- http://forum.geomancy.net/phpforum/article.php?bid=2&fid=12&mid=19753&new= 2. Under this url link, you can determine your element and strength; after checking out your best or favourable elements; use the information to design a logo suitable to yourself plus the colours. http://talk.geomancy.net 3. For a horseshoe design, it is much harder to figure out which element it belongs: just by looking at it's shape. However, since it follows a curve (but not wavy) then the closest resemblance is in my opinion to the metal element (…

Hi, I think it's because bedrooms are enclosed by walls which are like mountains. So mountain dragons are considered automatically activated in bedrooms.

Thanks for your quick reply. I knew there was something "fishy" about the whole thing. I'm not one really to fall for the superstious hype, even though I still catch myself still throwing spilled salt over my left shoulder. LOL! I loved your comment on resolving the issue of cooking them up in a pot. I suggest Lemon pepper for flavoring. Thanks.

Dear FS Master, Thank you for the reply but I came across this situation where on the 11th floor balcony reading show 255-W1 but on the 10th floor balcony reading show 240-SW3. Is there such a possibility or it is because of electronicmagnetic field interference the compass needle. On the 10th floor when I stand in centre of the balcony (rectangular in size) with the compass 4-6 feet away from my body it's show 240-SW3 but when I take one step back it show 253-W1. I'm puzzle at this instance. May I know is there a step/guide in taking compass reading at the balcony. Appreciate your kind advice. Thank you

Dear Master, I need advice. What do you think about this floor plan? I don't have enough knowledge about Feng Shui but I know this is not an ideal feng shui floor plan. I just started reading feng shui books 2 months ago. And also our house is right next to a small cemetery. It is an old cemetery & pretty well kept & quite. We have 20 acre land therefore our house is not too close to the graveyards. My husband don't believe in feng shui but I do, are there any remedies for these? Please help! Thank you so much!

Hi, Although there is a significance attached to the interpretation of each Trigram (hexagram) for each direction. This is about it. This is commonly known as the Eight Associations or Aspirations or Life Aspirations. One must remember that even the basic Compass School Eight house theory is personalised to a person i.e. based on his/her year of birth. Each one of us thus have a specific kua number. If you look at the Eight Aspirations Concept, it is applied to everyone and this really makes no sense. I have often quoted that if each of us e.g. 10 of us in an office places a picture frame or rose at the SW, and all of us are trying to get close to a specific colle…

Dear Anon, Frankly, the only acceptable cure is to replace the tomb shaped head board. (Unless, one can change it ourselves e.g. cut it into another `shape'. It is best to have a head board for the bed but this is not necessary provided, the "head" of the bed rests against a solid wall. Here, it should be a full wall towards the ceiling rather than placing the bed against a window. On another topic, last few days, I went to a few sites of new housing development. I will share with everyone, the various layout plans that I got and review some of them this week. This is to apologise for the slight absence for the last few days. Warmest Regards, Cecil

Dear Anon, 1. Yes, it is preferred that the bedroom door is closed. 2. A plant may not be appropriate especially if the staircase is not large but just nice for one or two persons to walk past. 3. You can also try to use the Eight House chart to see if you can plan your bedroom i.e. to orientate your bed-head and work/study to a good facing direction. Warmest Regards, Cecil Anonymous wrote: Dear Master, My element is strong metal and my bedroom is located on the east. I've looked around on the forum and found out that having a bedroom facing the top of the staircase is not favourable.From what I understand,stairs facing theentrance door is unfavourable because itma…

Beware of bringing home dubious antiques. By chance, one may accidentally bring home something in addition of the antique.. Dear cecil, I read somewhere that it is bad feng shui to keep antiques at home. Is it true. Thanks.

Dear Anon, 1. The satellite dish is is a relatively new invention. 2. Frankly, more has to be looked into before proper comments can be made. 3. In my opinion, it is less concern if we term it a `poison arrow' by looking at it's design. Because the `most threatening' look is the centre receiver and it also depends on the design. Most of the time, the centre is circular and rounded (although) it is a `stick'. 4. More concern is the question of whether anything comes close to:- (1.) the "Dangers of underground water". http://www.geomancy.net/fs/under.htm (2.) Handphones, the danger of micro wave http://www.geomancy.net/fs/handphone.htm For certain models of Handphones, ju…

Hi Master, So what should I do now?

These are some considerations: 1. This only applies to high-rise e.g. an apartment unit. Does not apply to landed-properties. 2. There is no paid report for this. As this report is not widely-used as say the common Flying Star Feng Shui (direction) report. 3. Overall, in general; If this is an apartment: from now to 2023; #7 is "theft or robbery (of wealth) which simply means = missed opportunities" while #5 = misfortune/sickness. 4. Thus overall; the frontage of this apartment (if it is an apartment) is considered generally as "missed opportunities and sickness" Hope that helps

Dear Samantha, One must not forget, that flying star is only one portion of a complete analysis. The most important factor to a good house isn't just the 4 walls of the home, but rather the external factors and surrounding. Regardless of whether you take the main door or the facing of the house. Both are not wrong, they are the actual flying star influence of the house itself. Even though, the charts may look different, they are the correct chart for the home. The important issue about flying star is to balance up all the sectors. Regardless of what is the chart, ultimately, the way to balance the sectors will not differ to much. Furthermore, as mentioned, flying star…

Dear Max, Toilet Feng Shui is actually related to "Commonsense" then Feng Shui. Thus if one wants to call it: "Commonsense approach to Feng Shui". This is because one day, while I was driving on a highway; this person was saying that whenever we flush the toilet (bowl), germs "fly" all over the toilet. Even if the our toothbrush was a distance away; it will still contain some-form or type of baterial e.g. e-coli etc... Makes sense? Rite? Well, whathe asks us to do? Buy histablets to frequently dis-infect our toothbrush in it. Much like thosedenture cleaning agents! Therefore, does this not equate to "Toilet Feng Shui" where toilet qi is said not to be good? We…

Please clarify the term you mean "face inwards". Do you mean the facing direction of your entry to the house? Thanks for advice.

Dear Jason, Technically speaking the main influence will be based on the Eight House or East/West Group person's best direction. You can place a display item i.e. moderately. Ideally, it should be on the person rather than the location. Do watch out what you are placing on your table i.e. avoid poision arrows e.g. sharp edges pointed towards you. Another important point is the " overriding " consideration of the Four Symbolic Animals concept where your table should be against a solid object e.g. a wall. The back of the table should not be a glass panel or window. Warmest Regards, Cecil

These are some considerations: 1. No issue with a water position be it a water feature or aquarium. Even in some landed properties; an urn with lily plants and some small fishes (fishes to prevent mosquitoe breeding is ok). 2. Nowadays; the more affluent even have large sea water tanks that have slightly thicker walls. 3. Traditionally, in the past a fish tank is often used to neutralize a lamp post etc... 4. For a hobbyist, any size of fish tank is fine or ok. 5. But if for the purpose of Feng Shui; often seek advice from the Geomancer. As often if the Geomancer used proper tools such as the Flying Stars; areas that may need a water feature to neutralize it may not…
