Thank you for replying. You are very generous with your information. I misspoke in my original post....I wrote that the back of the house would look to the view in the NE. That should be NW. Do you have graduates from your courses who live in the US who I could contact to have them look at the site? I live in the NW portion of North Carolina. OR could information such as a house layout, topography map, site map and other peritinent information be supplied to you for further evaluation? From what I know from my studies and from what you have mentioned, I am 98% sure that this site and house plan are good for us, but since we hope this is the last home we live in (for many…

Dear Anon, Besides the Shapes and Forms Feng Shui, one should apply the Compass School of Feng Shui: Eight House and Flying star. For the Eight House, you can use the free report(s) at www.geomancy-online.com to generate them based on the dates of birth given. In fact, there are other reports, but some of them are paid ones such as Finding a good house report. If all these sound Greek, then, hmm.... either if you do enjoy self-help, please try to burn some midnite oil - or alternatively, you can seek professional help, when you have found what you think is a suitable house. These are the two approaches to take. Warmest Regards, Cecil

Dear Joan, A faster change would include the building having a new coat of paint from this year onwards. Here, both the building and the interior are in sync. Warmest Regards, Cecil

Dear Christine, Please contact me privately at support@geomancy.net especially if you have not confirmed the layout plan or if it can be changed e.g. mirror of the original etc... In essence, main considerations will be: 1. Auspicious date and things to do for the ground breaking date & time. 2. Looking at the proposed layout plan etc.. Warmest Regards, Cecil

Dear Ashwini, 1. Traditionally, for the Chinese, a better option with a staircase facing the main door is the placement of a convex bagua mirror. 2. Often the semi-circular mat is quite "mild" as compared a mild method to the above. 3. Another method is to add an optional grille gate as shown in the attached. Warmest Regards, Cecil

I am a beginner learner of feng shui. I am a little confused about how the different elements of feng shui or chinese astrology interact. I was born on 5th october, 1976at 10-20 pm in India. My kua numberis 9 and i think that makes me an east group person.I am also a fire dragon born in the pig hour , tiger day etc.My ba zi true element is strong metal. I think metal is associated with the west direction. In such an event, which direction should i put my head to sleep? Also by doing a flying star feng shui myself for my home, it seems that the south east corner of myhome is bad and same goes for the north sector of the house. But by my kua number, these directions are spe…

Mr. Lee, Many thanks for your prompt reply. I would really like to know more about the "Holy Trinity" of luck - Heaven Luck, Human Luck, and Earth Luck, and will do my homework researching literatures on it. As for my situation, I have thoroughly evaluated every other factor I can think of in a responsible manner.From purely terresterial observation (preliminary business survey, researches, family and friends' support, etc.), it would be a pretty prospective move. I had been contemplating the decision for about four years before I learned yesterday that south west is my wealth direction. Just as in everythingelse in life,however, the higher the payoff the greater the…

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…

Dear Jo Jo, Currently, I have clients that have changed to Period 8 with "mixed-results". For example, I met a business client and after having changed to Period 8 (NW3) and because their office premises can place a large water feature at water star #8 and in the MD's room, which is directly at that opposite back, with a mountain #8. The MD mentioned that after the renovations, his sales improved greatly and even a division that did not do well, had a great change. However, for another client, who is running a child-care centre from a private landed home, (a smaller place) did not make major changes, had not improved. Thus, generally, it is more important that …

Dear Danielle, In my opinion, the method that you are currently using is often known as the "trip and fall" method. Touch wood! But, imagine, a one-time visitor or a new visitonr in your home - - visiting in the evening. Suddenly, there is a momentary power-outage. Because of the 'odd' or unusual placement of the furniture, the guest may perhaps, trip and fall! Again, this is like the stories we hear in the US, where someone blames the government for placing the lamp post at the wrong place - which resulted in a car "kissing-it". Best directions or facing best directions are considered as "nice-to-have". If can face a good direction - very good. If not, what the "he…

Dear Nancy, This year Grand Duke is located at SW and not South. While South is the location to avoid renovations. Thus, there is no issue facing South, this year. Warmest Regards, Cecil

Dear Mario, In my opinion, Feng Shui is not a cure all. To put logos in the right perspective:- 1. Ideally, if we are applying Geomancy, then a company signage or logo should preferably have three colours instead of one or two. Here, three stands for progress while one or two stands for death. 2. For a small business or sole proprietorship, the logo can be based on the Ba Zi of the owner. For example, if the owner is a weak water person, then, preferably, the company logo should have colours such as :- Metal (white or gold) Water (Blue black or grey). Since each element has a specific shape, i.e. metal = round and water wavy, for the company logo, perhaps, it coul…

Dear Sullivan, Apologies; what I was talking about has more to do with "openings" in a home that e.g. allow light to filter into it. Therefore, the idea is that, for example, if one side of the home is littered with lots of windows, doors, balcony, patio or sliding doors; therefore, it implies that with so many openings, there is a higher probability that this side is the facing direction. Although, a side where there is higher intensity could SEEM to be the facing side. But, often, this is not the main consideration. For example, for a bungalow that has four sides, and if the facing direction is North-South facing (e.g North - facing and South - sitting), just beca…

Dear Anon, I can understand your concern. But, are you "buying" the business or studying in the institute. To be honest, when taking a course, most of us depend more on our "study / examination technique" than from the school in which we are considering studying in. Most of the questions that you had posed requires an on-site audit to determine e.g. the suitability of facade facilities and design(s). What is equally more important is the type of course that you are considering, which has an impact on your keeness, future earnings and a satisfactory career. Cheers! Warmest Regards, Cecil

Dear Elena, In fact, a Feng Shui investigation takes into consideration 3 factors: 1. Shapes and Forms Feng Shui 2. Flying Star Feng Shui 3. The trigram associations. Para 1 and 2, is pretty much documented or mentioned in many of the messages. Under Para 3, the trigram associations or commonly known as life associations, NW for some Feng Shui practitioners is believed to be the most important trigram in a home. This is because, it is suppose to be the Heaven trigram or the father or the head of the home. Let me give you an example: Many Feng Shui practitioners do not like the kitchen or stove situated here because, to them NW is the "Heaven's gate". And, a stove is …

Dear Mary, Frankly, there is no major issue in the installation of finials other than that it / or a wall be built so high that it looks more like a prison. Overall, if your aim is for privacy, the common overlapping wooden / often maintenance free wooden fence is acceptable either in wood tone colours or white. Warmest Regards, Cecil

Dear Anon, Actually, in my opinion, it depends. This is because, in Feng Shui, we often see homes on a hill. The advice here is that homes should not be on an extremely steep hillside. Often a gentler slope is preferred. In such a situation, we can imagine your question. Here, for some homes on a slope, we do notice that the opposite is true: the back of the house is higher than the front. Usually, in my opinion, it has more to do with the design of the home. The reason why it is very important in Flying Star Feng Shui to find out where the facing and sitting directions are has to do with how best we can tap beneficial qi into the home. In a few…

Dear Hoa Luong, In the sample, the compass direction pointing North. Here, if the facing direction is North, then take the orientation of North as the compass marking. Since the home is orientated North -- South, determine the facing direction by checking e.g. where is usually the main entrance or drive-up area. In your sample, the facing direction can only be either North, South or also East or west. Warmest Regards, Cecil

Dear Anon, Please see below:- I can say that you are a "privilge" group because, for most part, many people are unable to sleep in the living room because they have a large family. And, often sleeping in the living room has less privacy for these people. As well as if one has large sized family members. Imagine, being trampled by them, also. In the case of sleeping on a flat bed, or on the floor, there are lots of people around the world who often sleep on such a surface. Even in Singapore, many (many) parents for fear of their young ones, falling off a bed, often, simply lay mattress on the floor. And sometimes, the entire family sleep together (cosy). So …
