Dear Anon, 1. Ideally, good houses have main doors that are `protected' from Sha Qi or poison arrows. 2. It is acceptable to have the main door on the side of the house. In fact this layout is quite common and should not raise too much concern. 3. Here in Singapore, there are many houses especially public housing (apartments) that have doors that are on the `side'. The advantage here is that there are few poison arrows (other than some apartments) with doors facing each other. 4. Most of these houses are `rectangular' in shape and thus of a good `shape'. 5. More importantly, the frontage of the house is equally important. What one needs to do here is: - since there are no…

The main entrance door opens to a 2 stage staircase as shown on the floorplan and photo. Any thoughts on its fengshui? Anything can be done?

Dear Eva, 1. Overall, under the Eight House concept, this would imply that this is the least suitable house for the breadwinner (your husband). In terms of degree of suitablitly, disaster and death at the main entrance is considered the least suitable house under this theory. 2. It generally implies that even if the house has excellent Feng Shui, because the house and the breadwinner's Ba Zhi does not match, overall, if the house is excellent or even if there is a `cure' if needed under Flying Star, it would be `average'. However, one must also look at the influence in the bedroom of each family members. Where possible, the bed room should be an auspicious sector and (not…

Dear Anon, 1. Usually, there is no impact on your home especially if it is an ancient or old site. 2. So long as it is not a location of mass masacare or tragedy; there is relative of no concern. 3. On the safe side, if your building is e.g. red brickwalls, this is considered most yang and is one of the `safeguards'. Alternatively, consideration is for painting the exterior of the main door (if it is facing that direction) red. Warmest Regards, Cecil

Dear Elizabeth, If the main door has two panels, you can open the side furthest away from the stairs. Placing a half door at the foot of the stairs can be done but not sure if there are any safety concerns i.e. making the stairway dark. One alternative is to place a mirror at the staircase landing (when the stair case `turns').

Dear Anon, Please see below:- Nowadays, lots of house have the main door facing their neighbours directly. So long as we try to maintain cordial relationship, do not clutter the exterior and close the door when we need privacy, it is the best way. Rather than use Feng Shui. I mentioned in a few earlier messages that there are homes where one home placed a Ba Gua mirror above their door. The neighbour had no choice but to use another different mirror to try and `bounce' back such bad influence. Here, there is a lose-lose situation instead of a win-win situation. The best method is to: Either 1. Use a screen between the main entrance door to the balcony or 2. Close…

1. In my opinion, especially in land scarce Singapore or often to maximise the interior layout of the home or apartment; I personallyfind that many of the main doors can open up to90 degrees some can open up to 120 degrees. 2. Thus, if I were to give anrough estimate, at least55 or even 60 percent of all homes in Singapore, have main door that can swing up to 90 degrees only. Thus, thhis is not a crucial factor. 3. I have mentioned in the past that allgovernment flats, have the main door with very auspicious qi openings e.g.the Feng Shui ruler was used to check the openings. Andfor these old flats, even the measurement of the frame and the openings are very auspicious. …

I have just purchased a home on a corner lot. The driveway is in the North sector and the main entrance is in the West Sector (although the path to the door is from the North). My Kua number is 4 and my husband's is 9 which makes the entrance the worst possible entrance. What can I do to detract the negative and turn it energy around that is it positive for the main entrance. The 'back door' is on the South side as it is a corner lot and only accessible through a gated yard. Would building a cedar hedge around the front of the house work? I need to attract good luck energy as I work out of my home. Please help!! Much thanks in advance, Laurie

Dear Panya, 1. Having the main door at one's death location is not ideal but is not `the end of the world' senario. Here, we consider that the house is the least suitable to the breadwinner. 2. Try to look at it from a `bigger' picture: 2.1 Check also the influence in your bedroom i.e. places you spent most of your time at. The above is only one puzzle i.e. the use of the Eight House Theory. 3. Even if you have not so good Eight House intangible forces, you can take advantage especially if the house has good Shapes and Form Feng Shui. 4. Here, since the main entrance is the `death' sector, I strongly recommend that you do a Flying Star analysis. What the Flying Star anal…

Dear Marci, Please see below:- -----Original Message----- Frankly, the rationale for finding the main entrance door is then to `calculate' the birth chart of the house. For this purpose, if we are not certain which door to use, a Feng Shui Master can do a calculation to find out which door is more suitable. In your case, for the `front' of the apartment, you could `soften' the wall by e.g. hanging a decorative painting to soften the wall e.g. a scenery painting or hanging a scroll. As for your back door, you can't do much here other than to `hide' the toilet e.g. close the door when not in use. Cecil

Dear CM, For a home, you should be looking at the micro-level e.g. your actual condo or office unit's main door to check on suitability. Sometimes, when the building main entrance is looked at, it is often to apply Flying Star Feng Shui to look or study the qi of the building e.g. where to place a suitable water feature outside of the building and/or to build landscaping to suit the flying stars. Warmest Regards, Cecil Quote: Anonymous wrote: Eg. I am an East-group person, is it ok to choose a home/office where: - the building's main entrance is facing NE, SW, W, NW, - but the actual condo/office unit's main door is facing N, E, S, SE?

These are some of the considerations: 1. Contrary to whatever belief that one has; it does not mean that it is considered inauspicious to have main gates of "properties" be it one large or huge facing a puny or tiny next door building that may not be that large. 2. Don't ever be mistaken that this equate e.g. a BIG fat mouth trying to swallow a SMALLer piece of land or building. Nothing of this sort! 3. In fact, one plus point in such an arrangement is that there will be little or no likelyhood of the REAL threat such as a lone lamp-post or a sign post or even a tree trunk from the opposite side "sliding" towards one's main gate area. 4. Although shifting the main gate ha…

Dear Mabel, The key to your "concern" is the centrepoint. The centrepoint or centre of gravity of the home is like the heart of a home. If you really cannot find the centrepoint of your home, you may have to obtain a copy of your layout, glue it onto a cardboard paper. If the home has many indents, cut out the outline. And balance it on a nail or pin to find the centre of gravity or centrepoint. After finding the centrepoint, the easiest is to stand at the location of the home where the centrepoint is suppose to be. Using an ordinary compass, look where the north points to. Here, once you got the orientation of the north, south of your home is behind this etc.... Referen…

Need advise on my current situation. I just bought a South(sector 1)house where the main door of the house is facing directly of my neighbours front porch which has a triangular roofline and a pillar. I've yet to move in. The road in between is about 40feet wide. Heard that putting up a BAGUA above the main door would help but is there any other way other than putting up a bagua or changing the position of the maindoor? Is the triangular roofline a serious threat to the owner of the house? PLEASE HELP.Thank you in advance.

I am considering buying a house that has an highway-style road running behind it. The road is elevated high above the house, however there is a relatively thick screen of tall trees in between and also a decent sized back garden, so the house is not so close. Is this still bad or is the bad energy naturalised by the trees and garden? Picture attached. Your advice would be greatly appreciated! Thank you.

Dear Anon, 1. In the past, when there were few (if any) high rise buildings; it is much easier to relate it to a landed property; than say an apartment. 2. One best way to look at a `major' renovation is of the following:- 3. Case Study 1 ================ 3.1 Someone has sold their home. For example, this house was purchased by a couple who married in the 1970's, stayed there. And when their children grew up; the children moved away. 3.2 Often, the `old couple' who have already retired decided to sell this house. 3.3 Most of the time, the house could require renovations to modernise the home. 3.4 For example, you came along and purchase this house. ANd decide to do a reno…

1. Please note that what you had mentioned has more to do with Heaven Luck (born with) and ba zi. 2. Under the Holy Trinity of luck, there are three kinds of luck:- 2.1 Heaven Luck 2.2 Earth Luck 2.3 Human (Man) Luck. 3. Your questions, frankly, is not so simplistic as proper analysis goes right down to even the dd/mm/yy of both partners etc... 4. As mentioned above, there are three kinds of luck. And if one divides them equally, all three are 33.3 percent and x 3 = will equal to 99.9999 or 100 percent luck. 5. What you are thus so concerned of is only 33.3 percent of the total luck. And furthermore, the danger of apply Heaven Luck so "religiously" is akin to the co…
