Dear Evelyn, To determine your main door, you have to:- 1. Find the centrepoint of the house. 2. If you are physically at the home, stand at the centre of the house and from here determine the main entrance door. Where best, go out of your home and take the compass reading of the North to South at a few locations. If in doubt, use the readings taken outside. 3. Can you clarify below:- You have to be exact with the door. From what I understand, I like to clarify that you have to stand at the centre of the house and from here, determine the compass direction of the main door. In this case i.e. if your main door is at the South the compass direction should be around 180…

Dear Jo Yong, In my opinion, one should take into consideration the `private' door into each apartments i.e. door (B) for Feng Shui analysis. If you have a sketch of the outline of the houses and its relation to the door (A) and (B), it would help to confirm the above. Regards, Cecil

Dear Master Lee, A question on this topic about front door facing direction. I realised there are different method of calculating the best direction of a front door. Besides targeting on the breadwinner, the spouse should also be taken into consideration. For exampleif I use the 8-Element of the couple for calculation. If one of thembelongs to "Earth" and the otherbelongs to "Wood". Since Wood Enhances Fire and Fire Enhances Earth, is it true that the common direction for the couple is Fire which is "South"? Thus, the best combined direction for the above is South regardless of being one of the "bad" directions for either one of us? Its quite difficult to have one d…

1. Frankly, this kind of layout is fairly common, nowadays. 2. One advantage is that there will not be a direct path between the main entrance towards a balcony or a window. 3. The main consideration for this type of layout plan are: 3.1 Never place a hanging water feature on the wall. 3.2 Avoid having a large piece or any mirror on this wall. 3.3 Avoid placing any posters within a glass frame. If glass frame is used, use the matt type or non reflective type.

Dear Gail, 1. Yes, it is considered inauspicious to have the front door open to steps. 2. If there is some distance between the two; then a divider or a screen could be used to neutralise this or (I am not sure how `ugly' a curtain or beads look) but the concept here is: `if it cannot be seen (stairs) it no longer poses a threat'. 3. In addition, take sometime to look out of the front door and windows to look out for any `poison arrows'. Here poison arrows usually refer to pointed objects or an edge of a building pointed towards the front door or windows. Or it could be a lone lamp post `slicing' thru the window or door. Warmest Regards, Cecil

Dear Anon, It depends on the distance between your main entrance vs your neighbour's (partial) wall. Often, 3 metres distance away is acceptable. Usually, it is best not to be too close because sometimes, the corner of the wall is like a poison arrow aimed towards your main entrance door. And secondly, it is often not too good because qi (air) flow is not smooth. What could be worse are the new generation Punggol flats. Some of these are corner units and the corridor wall is aimed directly into the homes. Depending on the situation, sometimes, potted plants can soften this effect. Warmest Regards, Cecil

Hello Mr. Lee: My house was built new and completed in December 2002. We moved in the same month. The House faces NE - 64 Degrees. My Kua Number is 2. I believe it is advantageous to move from Period 7 to Period 8. To accomplish this, we have to perform a 'major' renovation. Will replacing the entire Front Door be considered as a major renovation? We cannot renovate in other (possible) portions of the house since they fall in West and NW sectors, which are the areas of the Grand Duke. In Period 7, the Front Door portion occupies Flying Star-1, Water Star-7 and Mountain Star-7. In Period 8, The Front Door portion occupies Flying Star-2, Water Star-5 and Mountain Star-8…

1. In my opinion, your question is still in-complete. 2. For example: the key essence, here should instead be looking into:- 2.1. HEALTH (#2 sickness, #5 misfortune, sickness) 2.2. WEALTH (#3 quarrels, conflicts, lawsuits, #7 lost opportunies "theft" of luck, #5 misfortune etc..) 3. Thus, the most practical approach is to what you said. 4. Of course, if the facing direction has "WEALTH" but if the bedroom has health issues; many people would prefer health, first and foremost. Who don't want wealth. But, without good health how to enjoy wealth peacefully or happilly 5. Instead: I should ask you the question: 5.1. Would you mind good health but not that great in wealth or l…

Dear Anon, 1. Please confirm, by standing at the front door area facing out of the house. Does the lampost or tree seem to `slice' thru the front door? 2. You mentioned that "the tree with lampost behind it. Do you mean that the lampost is furthest away and is blocked by the tree which in turn; can be seen `slicing' the front door? If so, you can place two potted plants on both sides of the front door. Or, if you do not like the above option, you can hang a Ba Gua mirror above the front door. Warmest Regards, Cecil

Dear Yew-Meng, Please see below:- Thank you for your sketch. Yes, it is a great help to understand your present situation. Note: For those, who want a more exact response, feel free to attach a sketch. As the saying goes `a picture is worth a thousand words. My observations from your sketch are as follows:- 1. The river bending outwards of your `frontage' of your house looks good. 2. It would normally be better if the water flow is flowing from compass direction "West" to "East". In your sketch, it looks like the water flow is based on this west to east approach. Here, the perception is that it is better in such a situation as negative ions can be present. 3. Your…

Hi Master, I've heard many things around feng shui and flow of energy with trees blocking the main entrance. Would the attached picture be considered a tree blocking the flow of energy? This is the view from the front door. Thank You.

Dear Meilissa, 1. Under Chinese beliefs, if one notice carefully, figurines comes in `pairs'. 2. For example, Fufu dogs or lions are always placed on both sides of the door. 3. For your situation, so long as the hose is not directly `slicing' the main door, this is not a poison arrow i.e. if you are to stand at the main entrance looking out of the house, it should not be tangent or parallel to the main entrance door. 4. For the animal, it can be any object even if it looks `fierce' so long as it faces out of the house. Animal objects that look `fierce' should not look into a home especially into the window or main entrance. 5. You can if there are any `cartoon' characters…

Dear Anon, Perhaps, you do not mind elaborate further what you mean by "little sloping". In general, ideally, the whole house should be slightly raised or rather before the house is built, it can be built on a slightly higher land. Here, this means that the plot of land is even (not sloping on any side). Without looking at it from a Feng Shui view-point, a slightly raised plot of land and drains, the house wouild have proper drainage. Warmest Regards, Cecil

Dear Gwen, 1. Currently, the main concern is to allow Qi to meander gently into the house. So clear or transparent is acceptable. 2. One characteristic of Qi flowing directly from the front door to the back is a broken marriage, which in many cases, lead to divorce. I have personally seen a few cases, of such characteristics for some homes. 3. Taping plastic wrap as you mentioned is only a temporary solution. It would be best to cover it e.g. a decorative plywood laminate as an example. Warmest Regards, Cecil

Hi Master, Yes, there are 3 openings. One of them is the main door (common lift landing area for the 4 units), another opening is a side window in the hall but facing the next block, and the last opening is the one with bedroom window(and a wider hall window) facing the pool and club-house. Best regards, Tim

Dear Mr Cecil, You mentioned in Eight House Theory it is advisable that an East person should occupy an `East house'. For an East person, therefore, a favourable house is one where the frontage/main door is located at either:-EAST, NORTH, SOUTH or SOUTH EAST. I belong to East Group, my unit balcony frontage is facing South 3 as shown in the diagram. In this case my frontage become located in SouthWest which is bad location(sector) for an east kua group. Does this house consider east / west house? What happen if the facing is good but located in bad sector? Will I still benefit from this house?
