Dear Maggie, 1. Yes, what you had described is a Chinese cultural belief or taboo. 2. And, many Chinese fear of repercussions such as not only complications but - the concern of a miscarriage. 3. This is especially so for the bed. For example, once pregnant, the Chinese believe that one must not shift or relocate the bed (on which the pregnant person sleeps on). 4. Even if one needs to move house; for example, NO CHOICE because they had sold the house before delivery, the pregnant person must avoid seeing the event i.e. moving her bed etc.... 5. As for the renovations in the kitchen, the stove is a major concern also. And where possible try not to remove the sto…

Dear Sophia, Feng Shui is about Earth Luck. But most of the time Human Luck is equally important. Human luck often relates to family ties / family bonding / relationships and yes, hobbies. Since this is your husband's past-time or hobby, like many others, it is perfectly all right to collect them as this brings a good sense of feeling for him. Is also indirectly good for the family. Warmest Regards, Cecil

Interestingly, "Chinese Lucky Cats" actually originate from Japan. LOL Dear Anita, The idea is primarily rooted in belief rather than being firmly established in Feng Shui principles. Notably, "Chinese Lucky Cats" actually have their origins in Japan. Generally, sizable figurines are situated on the floor to serve as "guardians" at entrances or alongside staircases. They ought to be oriented outward, directed towards the outside of the home, rather than facing inward. For example, they may be positioned on one side of the house, directed towards a series of sliding glass doors, thereby effectively "guarding" the residence. It is recommended to avo…

What is the impact of living near a mosque on the feng shui of a house? Dear Fiona, Fiona K wrote: My house sitting SW & facing NE, but near to a MOSQUE (about 0.5km), is it bad feng shui or bad Chi for a house if near to Mosque? (Main door not facing the mosque). What are the ways to cures? 1. In general, most individuals prefer to steer clear of purchasing a property in close proximity to a Mosque or Temple due to potential noise disturbances and the presence of a large number of visitors. 2. Temples may engage in rituals that can result in uncleanliness as well. It is particularly undesirable if the Mosque is visible, espe…

In reference to my previous comments, I would like to pose an intriguing question regarding the concepts of fame and recognition. What implications arise for individuals who do not own a home? One might argue that residing in a small room could still allow for the enhancement of these factors. However, what if someone lacks a home entirely? Does this mean they are destined to miss out on fame, travel, and other opportunities? Traditional Feng Shui, in its original context, examines broader landscapes, such as major cities like Canton or even entire regions like Singapore, before narrowing its focus to specific sites and buildings. Unfortunately, many F…

Hi, I am trying to decide if a house on a dead end street is auspicious. I have read that it is not good to live in such a street but don’t quite know all the fengshui rules regarding this. So I would like to gain clarity on this. Attached is a photo of the roads leading to the property. Thank you for your help.

1. Usually, there are no strict rules about whether you should eat or throw away fruits. 2. When you collect your keys for the first time, the condition of your new home can vary: 2.1. Some homes, like new condos, are generally clean and have finished floors. 2.2. Other homes or apartments may be completely bare, with unfinished cement floors. 3. In situations like 2.2, fruits placed in bare homes may be considered unhygienic to eat by some. 4. However, during the move-in process, the floor is usually finished and kitchen appliances, such as the refrigerator, are turned on. At this point, fruits can be cut and served, or leftovers can be stored in…

Dear Anon, There original intention is for monetary use and not for Feng Shui. The larger ones usually have higher monetary value. I hope I have understood your question correctly. Warmest Regards, Cecil

Dear Anon, `Arrows' and even forks are used not really to divert Qi but to neutralise Sha Qi. For example, if one has a circular staircases visible from the main entrance door. The ideal situation is to use a screen. But it is not possible to screen off from the rest of the house e.g. living room. Some Feng Shui practioners will use e.g. golden arrows i.e. a pair to neutralise it from (two)different locations. Forks (as in spoons and forks) can also be used for the above purpose. Warmest Regards, Cecil

These are some considerations: 1. Please note that from my past experience, usually most people who face problems have a home that has around 3 major leaks or a combination of several cumulative leaks. And although enhancements are few and far between e.g. good location(s) for water; all these may affect or increase or decrease the Feng Shui of a home. 2. Thus, PERHAPS, the drainage could be one-Leak. 3. Any drainage covers especially that covers the last metre towards the drainage exit is neutral. Hopefully, does help. Of course, one can cover fully the drain. 3.1. Any type or those that you have shown in the photo where it can still be lifted up to clean is/are OK. Exce…

Hi Master. I have a question regarding Ba Zi personal dressing colors. I understand the importance of wearing the most suitable colors according to our element needs, but it’s some times difficult to convince women and young children to follow that. So, I wonder if special jewellery with elements marks ( fire, water etc) could suit the requirements of Ba Zi, bypassing the limitations for the dress code. Thank you

Hi Cecil, I am interested in purchasing a unit at Caspian. Attached is the layout. Would like to check whether the toilet is at the centre of the house? What negative impact does it have when there are some "missing corners" at the left of dining room & right of living room as shown. Thanks! Annie

Indeed, the presence of the two towering structures contributes to a rather somber atmosphere in this area, diminishing the previously experienced 'bright hall' effect.

Please refer to the illustration taken from http://lovesigns.net Every six years, one would have met the worst pairing. Thus the animal sign opposite the animal sign is considered the worst pairing. Therefore, the rat's worst pairing is the horse. While the pig's worst nightmare is suppose to be the snake.

Honestly, in addition to your previous comments, it is essential to consider Shapes and Forms Feng Shui; as it is challenging to fully understand solely through written descriptions. Even a simple aspect such as the size of the balcony can be influenced by direct afternoon sunlight, etc... For instance, if a water feature is consistently or daily exposed to direct sunlight from the west, it will experience a high rate of evaporation. In this case, if the balcony lacks a water tap, it won't be long before the individual may resemble the hunchback of Notre Dame. Alternatively, with significant evaporation, some individuals may lack the perseverance to main…

Dear Chee Guan, LIM CHEE GUAN DAVIDE wrote: we have seena house south east facing.my kua is 8 as my wife kua is 1. As facing SE is her sheng chi position but is my jue ming position. Should we proceed This depends on who is the breadwinner. If you are the breadwinner (which is usually the head or male of the house), then this isn't an ideal house for you. The house must first suit the breadwinner so that he can get the luck from the house. The spouse can then get a more suitable bedroom so that she can get the better luck from the bedroom. As mentioned, if you are the breadwinner, then this may not be the most advisable house at least from the suitability perspective.…
