Dear Kristina, 1. In my opinion, based on your initial feedback that the hous is beautiful, large and airy... you could perhaps, first apply the adage " If it ain't broken, don't fix it.". 2. Many people, actually do not need the help or `assistance' of Feng Shui to prosper or enjoy good luck. 3. This is because, majority of the time, a house with good Shapes and Forms (both external and internal of the house) provides a quantum leap in `LUCK'. 4. Feng Shui and other Chinese divinity methods is in some sense, all about increasing one's `LUCK'. 5. If one has a quantum leap i.e. excellent Shapes and Form; this is already a significant boost in LUCK. Any additional increa…

Dear Anon, A picture on such situations would be nice. In general, this is not an ideal situation if the door is right `next' to the main entrance. Another way to look at is whether the frontage can still receive sufficient lighting or is there a constant shadow over the main entrance. Warmest Regards, Cecil

Dear Anon, In the ancient Chinese book known as Yang Zhai Shi Shu, this type of house is described as inauspicious and the result that the family members staying in the house cannot be rich. This is considered less auspicious than some other building layouts which can range from death occuring twice in a year to the breadwinner meeting a calamity. Frankly, there is really nothing one can do other than to `brighten' up the house and others include placing e.g. such as placing fu fu dogs/dragons or more offensive FS cures such as canons on the pillars of the gate of the house. Warmest Regards, Cecil

Dear Lisa, There are a few considerations here:- 1. North East Direction is considered the devil's gate. It is adviseable for you to:- a. Use the Eight House Template to check which intangible force is influencing the main entrance door. Best that it is not the Death / Disaster location. b. It is also good to know which intangible force affects your masterbedroom. As for the North - East Direction or devil's gate, you do not need to worry other than to avoid having a lone large plant on the North East or on the right side of the house i.e. if you are standing on your main entrance and looking outside, you should avoid having a large tree on the right side of the house. c.…

Dear Anon, 1. Under the Eight House Theory, to determine how suitable the house is to the breadwinner. If your mum is the breadwinner than, this house (subject to other Feng Shui theories) is said to be `suitable' for her. 2. Is the kitchen considered the back of the apartment? If it is the back of the house, it would be best for the opposite, a mound rather than a slope. Warmest Regards, Cecil

Dear Shifu, I realised that my main door faces the windows. Should I cover the windows completely to avoid loss of qi or the windows could remain closed?

There are two options: Option 1. D.I.Y. (do it yourself)or Option 2. Get yourself on-site advice - as usually a geomancer will often apply the proper tools; do a survey and study and make recommendations to you. With your limited info; it is difficult or near to impossible to help you, here. For example, there are lots of info needed such as the compass directions, when the block was built, family particulars; how far, how high is the unit..... and more.... If you want to D.I.Y; then in my opinion, you need lots of patience and lots and lots of understanding ....... For this reason, many considered Option 2.

1. Feng Shui is a holistic approach and depends on two major concepts:- 1.1 Shapes and Forms Feng Shui 1.2 Compass School Feng Shui 2. In my opinion, you have barely scratched the surface; as you have just looked only at the Eight house concept which is by itself is not complete as this theory and concept belongs to one-half of the Compass School Feng Shui. 3. It is akin to someone visiting a general practitioner and the practitioner felt that the patient's breast has a lump. 4. I am sure the doctor would not automatically jump to the wrong conclusion. 5. I am also sure that the doctor would require this patient to further tests. 6. It is the same as what you had…

Dear Susan, Frankly, looking at one `idea' in Feng Shui or using it to audit a house may not provide the full picture. In your case, try to apply: 1. Shapes and Forms 2. Compass Schools: e.g. Eight House - not only the main door but bedrooms for each family members. There are more e.g. looking at one's Ba Zi to harmonise with the home e.g. for an individual such as a weak water person such as white walls. Warmest Regards, Cecil

Dear Carina, 1. This is only based on the `interpretation' of the Eight House and this is only one of the theories. It would be best also to look at other locations e.g. the bedroom (with this theory). The only `cure' in the Eight House is to avoid spending time at a specific unfavourable sector. For the main door, some resort to `tilting' it. But this has to relate to the findings done under the Flying star. As `tilting' the door, would mean changing the door direction. For changing the direction of the door, it is always best not to D.I.Y. (do it yourself). Usually, this is done in consultation with an FS consultant. 2. Usually the effects are "lessened", if the main …

Dear Michele, 1. There is no conflict here. 2. Based on the Eight House Theory and your Gua (kua) number:- NE is Excellent SW is Prosperity (Equally both Your West = Longevity and NW = Health are also ok) 3. Both NE and SW are equally good directions for you. So no issue, here. 4. The rationale for this can be found in history:- 5. Please refer to the attached graphic file ne.gig 5.1 In the past, most houses or landed property are of a single level or often occupy one floor. 5.2 Here it is preferred that the main door is located at NE. Since, usually, this opens to the living room area, the rest of the areas such as SW, W and NW are often the location of the bedrooms. Thu…

Dear Anon, Anonymous wrote: I'm looking atbuying a house and themain door opens out to a split door, is it "harmful" for the ones staying in the house? Is there a cure ? Generally, if you open your door and anything that cuts or split in your house, this is considered inauspicious. As it is normally a form or sha qi or poison arrow. This means this wall/split will cut right into your house. Typical way to resolve is try to block it. Probably like having at least gate with has half the height covered. Or even having some partition inside your house just after you enter into the door. Or last resort may be to use a ba gua to reflect the problem, but this may lead to bagua…

Dear Anon, Anonymous wrote: My facing is actually N1 but the main door is in the sector SW under flying star. Under period 8 it is star 5, f9, s7. Anonymous wrote: 5,9,7 is this a good combination? Under the period 8, unfortunately this isn't a good flying star combination. 5 (Strong Earth) - Inauspicious Sickness Star, 7 (weak metal) - Inauspicious Robbery Star, 9 (weak fire) - Average Future Prosperity Star. The combination is such at instead of enhancing the future prosperity star. This star influence is being converted to activate the inauspicious stars stronger. As such, it is considered overall inauspicious sector. Water and Wood element essential to help con…

Dear Master Cecil, I live in a 2 storey terrace house. My house is facing southeast 2, but our main door is tilted 90" facing northeast 2 which is also facing a wall sharing with my neighbour (7 feet apart). If I stand at the main door inside looking out, on my left is the wall (outside the house) and on my right is also a wall 4 feet width (inside the house). My question is whether all the above will obstract chi coming into the house? How do I counter this problem. Can I put a portable round water fountain (3" diameter) with concrete stand directly in front of my main door with some plants as well to increase my earning power. TQ & Regards, Fiona

1. Frankly, one must understand why there is a rationale for properly determine where the "mouth of the house" is. 2. The main purpose of determine the "mouth" is so that we can understand where the main qi comes in. And thus, apply the Flying Star Feng Shui. And not based on our whims and fancies to "snake" around the home to find doors that fit the static Eight House (4 East/West Group) persons. 3. Please note that the Compass School of Feng Shui does not depend only on the Eight House concept. And how one tries to fit a square peg in a round hole sort of thing. 4. Thus, one should not be too obsessed only with the Eight House concept; as if the whole world revolves …

Appended on 4 December 2019: Suggest, please go directly for an in-dept understanding of the Frontage of a house. Is it always the main door? Please refer to the attached resource: http://forum.geomancy.net/phpforum/article.php?bid=2&fid=6&mid=26954&new= For practical reasons, the smallest Asian sized door width is 35 inches. For European or American standard - should be 42 inches or 48 3/4 inches roughly within such a range. Commonsense approach is that if the width is larger; the larger clearance the door has to "swing" inwards. And imagine if the door size is 58 inches (one or two leaves) a…

Dear Ang, Please There is a report available to analyse fully on this. It is common for those using a Loupan to read using the above method. It is read by looking at the Luopan and reading the facing and sitting direction. It is best to follow the methods of each practitioner (totally). And not mix one method with another. If each practitioner's method is followed closely, it should result in the same reading. Warmest Regards, Cecil

Dear Audrey, 1. In Feng Shui, there is still a (strong element) of `Male domination'. 2. Given the two different groups - i.e. East vs West, we often go for the male figure i.e. in this case your husband. Unless you earn substantially more. 3. In my opinion, if one strictly base it on the Eight House than, this is still not the `best' home. 4. Go more for such combinations:- Husband: Excellent, Prosperity, Health and Longevity vs yourself - Spook and Irritation For example, the Main door is your husband's Excellent while for you it is your `spook' or irritation. 5. Where possible, one can still try not to have `death' or `disaster' at the main entrance or the bedroom are…
