Overall, depending on the external environment (especially the site and location); under Flying Star Period 8, a NE2 home generally enjoys a Parent string especiallyif the frontage has a "mountain" and the back... "clear space" effect. Health especially for the 1st year is a concern but overall, the house may enjoy favourable wealth luck. The suggestion or advise is for a holistic approach to Feng Shui: try to do a full Feng Shui audit : to neutralise the leaks and areas where qi can be improved on, try to do so. The remedy will depend on individual home and individual sector(s) of the home. We just bought a " very inauspicious" house according to the flying star theo…

1. The professional approach is more than the simplistic view that since the home is facing "south-east"; it DOES NOT automatically mean that the best colour(s) is GREEN (SE = wood). 2. For example, most of the professional Feng Shui practitioners apply Flying Star Feng Shui. And if a SECTOR of a home does have a #3; this represents "BAD WOOD". And anything associated with green such as GREEN colour or green plants is considered inauspicious, here. 3. Thus the notion that SE = Wood, West = Metal, North = Water is too simplistic and often unfortunately, considered as "Kindergarten Feng Shui". 4. Traditionally professional Feng Shui practitioners would first look at Para…

Dear Rebecca, 1. I hope you can understand that it is difficult for me with this general information to give you any advise. 2. Perhaps, you can check out for any practitioners in your area. 3. For a SE facing home, it also depends on the age of the home ( 1984 to 2003 = Period 7; 1964 to 1983 = Period 6 or earlier home). In addition, the individual layout of your home especially the bedroom / kitchen etc... has to be considered also. Best of Luck!

From a Chinese Luck System: i.e. commonly known as the "Holy Trinity of Luck":- Heaven Luck (born with) Earth Luck (in your case your home) Human or Man Luck (your dad's affirmative action with support from family members). We have not fully looked at the Earth Luck of your home. But just a general understanding. Based on the Holy Trinity of Luck, see how you and your dad and family members can also try to focus on how best strategically you can try to "stop" more people coming to your home. The saying goes "blood is thicker" than water. And only immediate family members apply, here. Others e.g. cousins, relatives are not direct family members. So, it is good to discus…

Dear Lalita, 1. Never hang a convex mirror and/or a hexagram Ba-gua inside the home. It is considered very inauspicious. 2. Since you have not or may not intend to do a Feng Shui audit, it is still best to leave the current situation alone. In my opinion, as far as I can understand, so long as the staircase has a turning and not a straight staircase, this is considered acceptable -- not perfect, thou. Quote: Lalita L. wrote: I just bought a house. The staircase is in the middle of the house and unfortunately runs into the master bedroom. Is this considered two major leaks? I'm planning to add light on top the staircase and hang a convex mirror and a hexagram Ba-gua on…

1. This is just an advice - - on a "fixture". 2. Within reasons: "try to be a "good" or reasonable MIL. And hope that your DIL does the same. Quote: Doris W. wrote: Hello! I have used the free report from this website about a particular apartment flat. The results are follows: House Number : #7-500 House Period : 7 (1984-2003) 81 Interpretation [4] & [2] - Mother or Mother-in-law and Daughter-in-law or Daughter cannot get along. Incidentally, I have a daughter in law and two daughters. Are there any methods to prevent or lessen the possible negative effects? Thank you in advance

These are some of the common notations on your case:- 1. Check your existing name or change of name: Some go to the extend of checking one's existing "Mandarin" name to see if it would help to benefit a person if there is a change of name or not. Here, I have mentioned that if one does not normally use one's "changed" name, then usually, not very practical to do so. For example, if we have a Christian name: of Christina, changing one's mandarin nameoften does not help in any way. Especially if the universal commerce language is English. 2. Under the Five elements concept, Fire fuels earth. Thus, there are varied interpretations such as going for a fire career or hav…

1. The high uncovered overhead beam can be an issue. 2. Given that your cubicle is located at a frequent foot traffic area - there is no choice, here. You have placed a mirror is fine or OK. For para 1, some of the common cures include: 1. Covering the overhead beam - seems not within your control 2. Another common approach is to draw a red line parallel to the beam (especially if it is above your head). The "red" line symbolises fire and if the beam is a concrete or wood beam, the red (fire) is symbolic of "melting" the beam. 3. Possible also for the nasty #5 yellow (misfortune/sickness) and or a combination of it with #2 at your cubicle sector. Here, within your cu…

1. Fundamentally, here, you are applying the Eight House theory. 2. As many of us are aware, the Eight House theory looks at how suitable the house is to the owner(s). 3. In addition, if we have several homes to decide upon, which is better, the other common approach is to perhaps determine, between these homes, which sectors are good or bad vs the other homes. 4. For example, home 1: main door (inauspicious) 2. living room (inauspicious) sector, toilet at husband's prosperity sector; we then compare home 2; home 3 against home 1 to see which home is better. 5. Other than the above, we have to use other methods : Shapes and forms and Flying star Feng Shui, to determ…

Dear Doris, Yes, one consideration is SW sector. Another two sectors to consider are: 1. South-East (Eldest daughter) 2. South (Middle daughter) 3. West (Youngest daughter) If one only has two daughters than do check out Para 1. SE (eldest)and 3. West (youngest) For landed property, make sure that at the frontage; avoid having too many openings OPENED e.g. some landed properties have both main door e.g. wooden door and directly next to this a row of sliding glass. If often both this sliding glass are always opened together with the wooden door. Quote: Doris W. wrote: Hello! I am aware that the SW sector of the house is the romance sector.

1. To be honest, it is no value to take a compass direction and not use it. The Compass School Feng Shui, is not only about taking a general reading and (full stop). 2. To enhance a sector, or neutralise a sector or problem; the Compass School Feng Shui (especially Flying Star) has both the TOOLs as well as the means to understand each sector. 3. Under Shapes and Forms Feng Shui, a tree trunk should preferably not "slice" thru the main entrance door or window of our home. If it slices the neighbour's -- not our concern... (This is still a poison arrow or sha qi towards that neighbour - not our home). Nancy W. wrote: I have used the compass direction to determine that…

1. In Feng Shui, the kitchen belongs to the lady of the house. The corner where one choose to place a kitchen depends on each individual home. In general, the Eight House chart of the lady of the house is considered, in addition to your first few written lines where possible it should not be at NW etc... The Flying Star chart of each of one of the 15 directions also need to be considered. 2. Thus it is so easy to provide a one liner statement " which corner would you place a kitchen. " Similarly, which corner you place a toilet. The key word is " It Depends!" Quote: Anonymous wrote: I been reading all the message that is not good to have the kitchen in the NW, center…

1. Since the door is facing the staircase, the concept is "if it is not seen it is no longer a threat" applies. Thus, it should be placed such that the staircase is fully or partially blocked. 2. In Singapore weather, the most common - easy to maintain are those from the bamboo family is one of the easiest to upkeep. The yellow bamboo and common straight growing ones are OK. Any other plants so long as they don't have a single trunk would be accepable.

1. Some Feng Shui practitioners a have "rigid thinking" which they felt that any apartment BLOCK on "stilts" or standing on legs are no good. Here, some Feng Shui practitioners felt that the entire block is at risk of "loss of wealth". For example, to these Feng Shui practitioners, so long as any property is not on land or on the ground and supported even by levels of car park are considered not good. 2. In Singapore, the Ritz Carlton hotel was "Feng Shuied" and was built on such a column "or void". 3. Again, in Singapore, approximately 80 to 90 percent of Singaporeans live in a Housing Board (HDB apartment). And as…

1. Usually indoor plants are often waxy and darker green colour. These are the most suitable indoor plants. 2. There are at least three very common bamboo plants. The advantage of bamboos are that they are very hardy and some varieties grow very well indoors with little maintenance. 3. Symbolically, to the Chinese, bamboo represents "youth" and when combined with some other characters could mean "longevity". 4. So long as the plants does not have thorns; they are generally acceptable although preference is on the porch and often not found in the interior of the home.

In my opinion, there is no "magic" attached to dzi beads. Thus it is not something magical or suppose to be health giving etc... Buying it is like buying any other decorative pieces - but never in the name sake of Feng Shui or cures. Some like it, buy it and are happy over it, that's fine. Australians have their opal mines .. opals... the Chinese (and Mynmar formerly Burma) have their jade. These are more "valuable" assets.. Quote: Anonymous wrote: i know i'm very new at this.Your thoughts on dzi beads,positive or more useless bought objects?

1. If Flying Star Feng Shui is applied:- 1.1 If the home is a Period 7: 1984 to 2003 and is a NW1 or NW2 or NW3 home. The water wealth is located at the centre of the home. This type of home, is considered as having "small" luck because the water wealth is "trapped" at the centre of the home. Thus, a water feature can be placed here to bring "small" luck. 1.2 For many new homes built from 2004 to 2023, then the base is #8 and not so advantages to have a water position at the centrepoint of the home. Unless there is moving water flowing from the front to the centre or if the drainage out of the home has been properly looked at from a Feng Shui point of view. 1.3 Many Pe…

Dear Michelle, 1. It is very common for the type of development you had mentioned not to have a costly basement. In fact, majority of such apartments both in Telok Kurau and many locations in Singapore. 2. The major concern with having a car park right below any apartment unit are: 2.1 Although a fire breaking out i.e. a car on fire is rare, but should a car or van burst into flames, the logic is that fire rises upwards. 2.2 Some Feng Shui practitioners don't like homes that are not "grounded" on the ground.. Such homes are considered as sitting on "stilts" or not on firm ground. Thus for example, homes above a shopping complex or above a carpark to these Feng Shui pr…

Dear Keith, 1. It is good that you do a SEARCH under this forum to find your subject matter. For example, use the SEARCH feature for #5 or Five yellow. 2. There are various combination of star numbers with or without #5. Thus #5 can be combined with either one or both or all of #2, #3, #7 and another #5. Each of these have somewhat slightly different significance. 3. About commercial products: In my opinion, many products that one has purchased usually lines the pocket of the seller. In ancient times, there are no such products. Thus many use "in the name of Feng Shui" to sell this and that product. In my opinion, products are modern invention, mostly toentice us to…
