Dear Leslie, Traditional Feng Shui is about Yin and Yang. Further down the chain, on the next level is the Five Elements concept. 1. For example, a normal mirror is considered a `Yin' object. 2. Mirrors are known to be able to bounce Qi (or Ch'i energy). For concepts like the Eight Aspirations / Eight Associations, this is one of the `lowest' or least important aspect in Feng Shui. One reason for saying this is because it is too general a theory as it does not apply to a specific group of person but to nearly everyone. Imagine, if everyone in the same company or for the matter the whole country tries to enhance their `Career' sector what would be the result like? Unlike…

Hi! Cecil,Thanks for your reply.I hope I have put my questions clearly this time. The room is located East and I draw a flying star chart period 7 main door facing S2 172.5 to 187.5 and the star in the East section, are 5 base star and 5 Mountain 9 Facing Star. ( I think?) The Bread winner's Kua is 8. and he sleeps in a North room. Please could you tel me what should I do for the room in the East? The person in that room has Kua 7. My main worry is that the room in the East doesn't have good stars.Also one more question how do you find out what is a good Mt & water star and what is bad. Thanks, Regards.

Dear Shawn, Shawn lim wrote: The lucky/unfavourable colours are mentioned in mostly primary colours - red, yellow, blue etc. Yes, this is because these colours are the key colours that make up the other secondary colours. Shawn lim wrote: Orange, pink (fire/earth), purple/plums, copper (reddish) and grey.I am a bit confused about the colourbrown. Some say it is earth colour while others say its wood. which is it? Frankly, for secondary colour, it is harder to define due to the fact that if the colour is lighter/darker the element can be different. Orange for example, if light orange more ie more towards like gold colour, it is made up of more Yellow (earth) than Red…

Dear Sunny, Please see below:- Based on your description, it looks like a poison arrow ie. especially if it slices through the main entrance door. I posted a message: What is the `Triangle Effect?' under the conference: Photo Tours of Interest. For you to have a better understanding of the situation. This should not be an issue in the living room. Normally, it should be placed closer to one side of the wall rather than placed in the centre of the living room. Warmest Regards, Cecil

Dear Ada, Ada C wrote: I have a 12 feet pine tree in my back yard. About 3 feet above the groud, the main trunk splits intotwo main trunks. Ada C wrote: Does this mean anything? My neighbour told me that is not good for feng shui, it that right? Should I cut it down? Generally, any single lone tree may create like a sha qi to the house. Which is why, it is better to create a garden with many different plants together to form a garden, rather than just a single tree or plant. This firstly, creates a better landscaping which makes it more pleasant to look at. Back to your question. Some people may view the splitting of tree trunk as inauspicious, because it represents…

Dear Anon, Before I reply to your question, I like to highlight that the Ba Gua mirror is used for two main purposes: 1. Some use it to ward off evil. 2. Some use it to deflect/absorb Sha Qi or poision arrow. After `understanding' above, you can than know why some FS practioners would prefer the Ba Gua mirror to be `blessed'. Usually, those who ask their clients ot place a Ba Gua mirror to "ward off evil". Why do some FS practioners ask thier clients to place a Ba Gua mirror to ward off evil? There are two main reasons: 1. Majority of these practioners have a religion e.g. Taoism and believe that all homes must have a Ba Gua mirror above their doors to `ward off evil'. T…

1. The Eight House (Eight Mansions) concept is "fixed". For example, as you had mentioned, if north is your favourable direction, then most likely you are an East group person i.e. your "overall" good or acceptable directions are " North, South, East and South East". 2. While Flying Star, as you had mentioned, is based on "star numbers" and their combined significance. 3. There are situations where a room can be surrounded by bad stars. Some rooms or some homes depending on the flying star numbers may even be affected by truly bad stars such as #5 #9 #5. If so, it is very difficult to disarm such stars. While rooms with #2 and #9 could most likely generallybe neutralis…

Dear Anon, In my opinion, so far, I have yet come across a case or problem related to `ceiling fan(s)'. Therefore, for me, I do not consider it a problem / threat or a real issue. Warmest Regards, Cecil

The toilet door beside the guess room is facing the dinning area, is this a bad feung shui? (pls see attachment)Eager for your ReplySincerly,Ray

Dear Anon, Yes, this is one of the concepts of Shapes and Form School in relation to the interior of the house. The best principle to apply is to see if you can cover the bookself e.g. such as cloth or a cabinet with doors. Here, the concept is: `If you no longer see them, they are no longer a `threat' '. Alternatively, try to see if the bookselves can be shifted so that they do not face you or your body. It also depends on how long you spent `facing' the books. Warmest Regards, Cecil

Dear Anon, 1. Yes, washing machines should be considered as a water position. 1.1. Especially front loading washing machines that has a circular glass pothole. 1.2. Thus it is less than ideal for this glass pothole to face the stove. 2. In addition, water pipe is used to draw in water into it at the back and the output of dirty water is also produced. 3. A microwave is (contrary) to popular belief - belongs to the metal element. Since, it's energy is concentrated inwards. Fire is not used to conduct this energy but instead microwave (metal) element is used to disturb the molecules to cook them. Warmest Regards, Cecil

Dear Anon, Actually, our free report will already give you that answer. Given the date of birth Male, 28 Jan 1964, Pig hour. You will be a Strong Fire. Element Strength Percentage 4 Water Extremely Weak 12 % 2 Wood Weakest 12 % 3 Fire Weak 28 % 3 Earth Strongest 46 % 0 Metal Strong 0 % This is because your five element percentage after calculating all the combinations and clashes will be as shown above.

1. In my opinion, although not common; but have come across such a situation. 2. There were also geomancers that ask their clients to literally place the bed-head against a fullwindow as they were applying Eight House Feng Shui. 2.1. What you mentioned has more to do with pschology then anything else. Some people may feel uneasy or feel unsecure as they may feel that someone may be peeping into their bedroom - even when the entire windows are opaque. 3. Froma Shapes and Forms Feng Shui, your bed-head is still against a solid wall - good or OK. 4. Furthermore; in a sense; more light can pass thru that specific bedroom. If it is not direct sunlight; e.g. light filtering in …

Dear Anon, That looks like you have enhanced yourself sufficiently. Remember that by using Water, any metal you meet will be turned into Water thus enhancing your weak wood. I think that should be sufficient. Water is represented by wavy lines, glass objects type. etc. No, you should still have some of them, becuase in your case Earth is your wealth. Once you have enhanced yourself with water to strengthen your weak wood, you can then control your wealth deity which appears in the form of Earth. In any case, you should have a balance rather that completely removing a certain element away. This is because although Metal to you is your destruction, it also is the el…

Thank you SO much Master Lee. This has been a very confusing area for me during the 3 years I have studied tradtional Chinese feng shui. No one, until you, has explained the process of choosing a remedy (first Productive then Destructive). It is such a simple and basic point, yet if a student is not aware of it, it becomes quite a large issue. Once again THANK YOU!! Best Wishes, Oliv Sullivan

Facing the balcony from the main door, should I place it on the right or the left side ? How many stalks should I put ? Dear Anon, Under Feng Shui, the main issue, here is said to be " a direct - wealth leak as a result of a straight path from the main door towards your balcony window. Thus, I believe what your friend wanted you to do was to "block" this leak or direct sha qi. If not, it is said that it is difficult to keep money as "money comes and goes out of the home very quickly!". Therefore, the aim is notso much of how m…

Dear Anon, Glad that you have `sharp' eye sight. Frankly, I did not comment on the half fish structure because I wanted to know if anyone would ask about it. Well, the more important point is the use of the clay (earth) light holders as I mentioned earlier that represents light. In Feng Shui, light is also considered one of the `items' that can aid in enhancing Qi. Here light is equivalent of water positions like a fountain. This half fish object can be seen under two context: 1. It is equivalent of the object used to light the clay (earth) light holder. Here, you understand that symbolic is again very important in Feng Shui. The shiny metallic half fish creature thus sym…

Recently I was in a store that sells decorative items, and I saw some items using copies of the "ancient Chinese coins" with the square hole in the middle. However, these coins were of various sizes, some very large and some very small, and arranged in different ways not similar to what you have shown in this site. I was thinking of buying one of these items and taking it apart to use the coins from it in the proper arrangement. Is it important what size these coins are? Is there a minimum size or a standard size? How can I tell if the coins I saw are ok to use for this purpose? Miriam

1. In a previous message; you mentioned that you are so into Flying Star Feng Shui; 2. If you are so into this Flying Star "stuff" then you could draw a Flying Star Chart of the home:- 2.1 Interpret the 20 Year Flying Star combinations: paying attention to numbers like #3 and #5. 2.2 Check the 81 combinations of the mountain star with water star interpretation. For example, see a small extract showing the interaction of Mountain Star #4 with Water Star #3. 3. Even if one wants to "eat and sleep" with Flying Star should be well versed in all aspects of the Flying Star Feng Shui". 4. The saying goes " a little knowledge is like no knowlege.. and often .. a dangero…

Dear Anon, Anonymous wrote: Is it ok to place the altar(Guan Yin)facing west? I believe it is not generally bad to place facing a certain direction. In fact it depends more on what the altar is actually facing, or what is behind the altar etc. Like for example, it is bad to place any altar where the toilet is directly behind it. These type of rulesets are more important to follow, than compared to a fix ruleset that altar can never face west. Anonymous wrote: is it true that the suspended type of altar is not so good? Of course the most ideal is to place on a table where there is like support and often most altar table size is often of a standard size that is of an au…

Dear William, Frankly, there is no harm in hanging a painting of guan yin facing the main door. Usually, it is hang in the living room area. Although the painting of guan yin does not have it's eyes "dotted", it is still best to avoid:- 1. letting the painting face the dining table 2. have it's back to a toilet wall or share a toilet wall 3. avoid facing into any of the bedrooms. Warmest Regards, Cecil
