Dear Anon, Anonymous wrote: Good Day Shifu My kitchen is located at south. Can i activate this sector? If not, which sector can i activate? I understand that activate south sector is good for career. Thank you in advance. If the South is a good sector and it falls in your office/room then probably you can activate the sector for the career. However, if it is your kitchen, then how to activate it even if it is good for your career when you can't use it? So you probably have to activate other sectors that you are able to activate. Hope that helps. Warmest Regards Robert Lee GEOMANCY.NET - Center for Applied Feng Shui Research.

This is again, pure common sense:- Especially if the master bedroom door and bedroom 3 door leading to the balcony are ajar; Frequent cooking would bring the cooking vapours into either or both bedrooms. Worse still, if one use bottle gas; and should the fire extinguish and the gas leaks... it may leak directly into the (external) but also blow into either or both of the bedrooms.

1.It is always best to beclear. 2. Under Flying Star Feng Shui,it is about compass directions. 3. For example, maybe to you; you are clear about the"right" side. 4. To me,I would consider the median point of the home and to the right side can be vast: NE,East and SE. 5. While the left side of North can have NW, West and SW. 6. It is preferred not to have the kitche at NW: if you do call this the LEFT side. 7. With such a hazy term call RIGHT side (or even LEFT) side... it's anyone's guess. 8. Even for a trapezoid shaped home, make sure that the top-view profile of the home is as rectangular as possible.

Dear Sophia, Sophia Chia wrote: As toilet is not an ideal location next to the main entrance. If the kitchen location is next to the main entrance but there isn't toilet attached to it.. Is it okay. Generally, the reason why toilet next to the main door is the more major concern are two factors:- 1. The toilet bowl is where largest amount of waste and water leaks out of the house. 2. The toilet is also dirty and tends to have bad smell. So logically, if it is near your main door, even when guest enter into the house they will have to pass by the toilet, which isn't really that nice smell nor good. So imagine Qi enter into the house, the first thing is it is dirtied by…

Dear Anon, Based on just the Shapes and Form School, there should not be a problem with the kitchen above the toilet. It would be inauspicious if it is the other way around i.e. the toilet (especially the toilet bowl) above i.e. the stove or cooking area. Warmest Regards, Cecil

Dear Sophia, The primary consideration in a kitchen is the placement of the stove. It should typically be oriented in a direction that is convenient for the spouse or the woman of the household. Regarding the kitchen sink, this is generally not a significant concern, and it is permissible for it to be positioned as you have indicated. Therefore, it is not essential to keep the toilet door closed even when it is not in use. You are correct in stating that excessive partitions or screens should be avoided in the home. Improperly placed partitions can disrupt the flow of the home, akin to a knife cutting through its various areas. For resident…

1. If one wants to play safe, one can always readily purchase a Feng Shui ruler to try to work out favourable measurements as much as one can. 2. In most countries, the kitchen cabinet width is always 2 feet. 2 feet is an auspicious measurement. And because of our size and height, many of the height of the stove range between 34 inches to 35 inches. In fact, in the past, the stove is approximately 34 inches in height and the sink (is suppose to be higher) at

Dear Anon, Anonymous wrote: My kitchen is located at M4-6-W3. Which is the best sector within the kitchen to locate the stove - East, North or South? In the selected sector, please advise where the knobs of the stove should be. Thanks. I can only give you some of these general guidelines as which is the best placement depends on the layout of the kitchen as well as the various people livingin the house (especially the person cooking for the family). 1. It is best to face the kitchen stove in the position that the person cooking most in the family will benefit from. This means that the direction should be best facing one of the 4 good directions of that person. If you a…

Dear Yang Ming, 1. In my opinion, even if we are unable to keep a distance of 2 feet or more, it is not a worrying concern, as symbolically, we can still keep smaller distances. 2. In many of the previous queires related to the same topic as yours, there are many people who have also faced same problems and even a distance or gap of a few centremetres is still ok. 3. Depending on your layout plan, where possible the kitchen should not be too close to the door, if the knobs on the stove point towards or out of it. 4. The main objective of this `exercise' is to try and keep the warmth in the home. It also depends on the compass direction of the kitchen. If the kitchen is …

Dear Cecil, Thank you for having taken the time to answer my question. I believe that my kitchen design complies with "Commonsense FS" i.e. stove is not directly next to water or fridge nor infront. There is no window near stove ... no wind or cold air ... etc... I am worried however about the placement of the stove... which school of FS should be correct? should I place it NE/SE so it faces our bad sectors or should it be on E or N wall which are favourable directions for us? Anyway the kitchen has been ordered for NE/SE as it is a special corner unit (Had to have it designed especially!) Really I looked at it also from a decorative point of view so as to make it look ni…

Hi, i need a few advice on my kitchen renovation problem. Thank you for your time. My husband gua number is 3, mine is 4. Currently I am moving the kitchen from the 1st floor to the 3rd floor. My new kitchen will be a-U shape kitchen, at north-east-south wall. At first, I want to put the stove facing South direction (ie,on the North wall).Is it ok? As the stove knob's will be facing the same way as the front door? The front door of my house is facing South. However, if I put the stove on South direction, it will be the exact opposite to the sink. The sink has been installed, so I can't move it anywhere else. I've read that fire can't be placed opposite water. Is there any…

Dear Anon, Anonymous wrote: I have recently renovated my house. My kitchen wall & floor tiles is orange red. My kitchen worktop table is black colour.I have heard thattoo much red colour is not good feng shui for kitchen. Is this true ? If yes , what can I do about it ? Too much of any single colour isn't good. In feng shui, the idea is to create a balance and harmony. This means that you need to have a balance of all five elements. Only then will you get perfect harmony. In terms of a single room decoration, it is best to always have at least two or three elements. Preferably three elements, because it will create an auspicious five element flow. ie water - H…

Dear Sophia, Please see below:- It is more a concern than reality. Since the fridge is not known to emit any dangerous radiation or microwave. The only concern is with some fridge *touchwood* is the "heat" .... But given that there isasolid wall between the bed-head and the opposite side fridge, there is no issue, here. The worse "senario" is perhaps a neighbour of the same floor level hanging a (railway station, type of wall clock) facing our unit. Symbolically, the Chinese does not like to "give" a clock to others... Warmest Regards, Cecil

Dear Rebecca, The theme for the kitchen is where bothfire and water areused. In anykitchen, there will always be the water element versus thefireelement. Thekey essence is a good balance between yin and yang (water and fire)whichcan result in good fortune while the opposite can resultin amisfortune.Other aspects of kitchen Feng Shui includes the locationas wall asfacingof the stove. In addition, another element most commonlyfound in akitchenis the metal element such as cooking utensils. And thiselement isoftenused as a bridge between water and fire elements. In the kitchen the most importantconsideration is theposition of thekitchen and stove. In Feng Shui each compa…

1. May consider install a partition. Some comments on the type of partition can be found, here:- http://www.geomancy.net/wiki/Divider_or_Partition 2. On / Off! When the main door is opened, (if possible) the kitchen door is closed. Frankly this may not be practical day-to-day situation. Para 1 is a better choice.

To the Chinese, it is unlucky to give especially someone: 1. A clock. 2. A pair of shoes. But since this is a watch.. it dwells more on beliefs or coincidences. But generally, it is felt that giving knives is not good since it is symbolic of sharp or pointed objects. Nevertheless, as relationships are built on communication, trust and interaction of the two parties, if you want to try to continue with your relationship, should perhaps, have a `hard to hard' talk with your ex-boyfriend and see how things goes.... Warmest Regards Cecil
