http://www.geomancy.net/wbimages/smiles/icon_cry.gif Hi I'm new to the group and have a few questions. The windows in my room face my auspicious direction (kua 8)W, but there is a balcony outside there, and the parking lot of the building beyond that. There is stuff on the balcony belonging to my roommates(clutter), but I covered the nearest stuff with an orange tarp. Also one end of my windows cuts into the SW relationship corner. My computer faces one of my inauspicous directions S, but it allows me to see the door, and lets me have my back to the wall. If I change it to a good direction (W, SW) my back will be away from the door. Which is better? The entrance to my …

Dear Raluka, 1. Frankly, I would not say that this is an "untold" secret. This is because there are varied interpretations as to the exact floor level. For example, you mentioned 1 to 5. While other practititoners may consider 6 to 8 or 9 floors. 2. Usually, the major consensus amongst practitioners is the term " the most light " coming into the apartment. 3. Here, often, if one has already stayed into a specific home for some time, some practitioners instead of "arguing" about this "untold" secret may instead draw TWO charts to compare which is more accurate. Here, action speaks louder than words. And this is a more productive way to "trouble-shoot" issues if any. 4. Oft…

Dear Mike, Frankly, in my opinion, don't be overly worried about this. This is because "our life is what we want to make of it!" In my opinion, the danger with reading too much of this can lead into two unhealthy situations: 1. Auto-suggestion If we tell a sheep it is "stupid" - it does not understand and will not be affected by our statement. But if we were to for example constantly tell a child i.e. he /she is really stupid, in time, the child may feel inferior and have such social issues. 2. Self-fulfilling prophercy If we do constantly think and act that way, it will indeed come true. Since we are on this earth for such a short-time, we should try to make the best use…

Dear Sean, Frankly, although many of us would like to feel that we had consulted someone to give us advise on what type of fish to rear. But ultimately, often based on man-factors, it is much better for us to appreciate what fish we personally would like to rear. This is because, often, if we notice carefully, many who rear fish as a hobby - will last longer than those "told" to rear fishes. Perhaps, this is why, hobbists enjoy more, and appreciate more of fishes. And this has to do also with an element of man-luck factors. Rather than forced to do so. Warmest Regards, Cecil I also read Regards, Sean

Dear Emily, 1. Is this home stayed-in for sometime already? Yes/No? 2. If Yes, 2.1 and if one has stayed in this house for a few years e.g. 2 or more years, than, it is best to draw TWO flying star charts: Chart 1 : facing direction - the balcony. Chart 2: facing direction - the whole stretch of the living room. 2.2 Try to check out each sector and in-particular the bedroom sectors to see if the flying star chart matches your current experience you have in your home. Warmest Regards, Cecil

Dear Alice, Yes, since #8 is considered as the water wealth position (under Period 8), and since there is a #8 at NE. And this COINCIDES with location like the living room, one can still activate a water feature at this sector. This is suppose to bring monetary wealth. And at mountain #8 plus the future wealth sector i.e. #9(and one can still activate a mountain star at this sector. This is suppose to activate the health luck or relationship luck.) For the year. Next year, however, this changes to another sector. Warmest Regards, Cecil

Dear Prudence, Firstly, try to use a compass and determine the sector the bedroom is in. Reference: http://www.geomancy.net/fs/house1.htm Next, try to draw an Eight House template to check to see if "death" or "disaster" falls in this bedroom. let him sleep further away from this room. If you know how to draw a Flying star chart, than do look out for #5 (misfortune/sickness) and #2 (sickness). Often, such stars in particular occuring in the 20 year Flying star or yearly flying star at a sector, would affect the household. Here, especially at the mouth of the house - i.e. the main entrance door area where possible do not have the #5 and/or #2. Warmsest Regards, Cecil P…

Dear Earl, 1. Usually an apartment is unlike a landed property. Where at least is larger and much easier to analyse than a small tiny apartment. 2. For a small tiny apartment, one school of thought is to look at the entire building and determine the facing and sitting direction, here. This is especially more so since the entrance to an apartment can be at odd directions etc... In your case, if you cannot really determine the facing direction, than it is best to use the building's facing direction. As for your second question, it depends. Warmest Regards, Cecil

Dear Master Cecil, Attached is the layout plan of the 2 story link house. I plotted the plan according to scale. All overhead beams are plotted. i find that there are missing corners, (if this is consider a missing corner). I have the center of the house but how to fit the grids since I have a missing corner? If I do have an open living hall which is huge, can it be considered 3 grids? Please verify if I have them correct. Thank you, Janice

Dear Frank, Please see below: Some Feng Shui schools recommend placing "yin" water at sectors that is out of balance and require "yin" water. Here, get a 1.5 litres plastic bottle, place 6 coins inside and fill it up with tap water. Here, again, it is used as a cure rather than as an enhancement. Frankly, between such "remedies" I would instead, prefer to invest in a Hepa air cleaner such as from Honeywell , Sharp etc... to help purify the air instead. Since, these are proven. Warmest Regards, Cecil

Dear Frank, This should be seen under the Holy Trinity of Feng Shui: 1. Heaven luck (it is said that what we are blessed with) 2. Earth luck (luck or no luck at all from our home) 3. Human / Man luck factors Rearing animals is considered as cat 3 i.e. man or human luck factors. Frankly, there is relatively no problems rearing animals as pets. Since, this past-time is as far back as 3 or 4 centuries ago. Since pets often bring us comfort or even solice. Warmest Regards, Cecil

Dear Venkat, Based purely on the layout plan (without) human factor i.e. placement or suitability, I would say Plan2 (or illustration plan2A) is safe since, the water position is not exactly at the centrepoint. If you see the two attachments, Plan 1 (plan1a) however, has the toilet / bathtub at the centrepoint. Not as favourable as Plan 2. Warmest Regards, Cecil

Dear Sor Lan, Frankly, not sure whether, the ship sails "into" or "out-of" is a sure way to get more money. For sure, the seller of the ship, would instead be garanteed of some profit selling it to us. Anyway, under symbolism, in my opinion, if your ship is laden with gold ingots, I would have to say that it is best to sail "to port" or face inwards to your home. Here, wealth is suppose to come in. On the other hand, if the ship is empty, than, "let it set sail outwards" or pointed out of the home. Do let us know if at the end of the day, do you managed to get more wealth, this wayhttp://www.geomancy.net/wbimages/smiles/icon_smile.gif Warmest Regards, Cecil

Dear Janice, 1. The Eight Aspiration is a static template which is based on the bagua and therefore least personalised to any one person. 2. The Eight House at least personalises to the year of birth of a person. Thus, there is a certain level of personalisation. 3. You should always follow priority, ie Eight House before Eight Aspiration. So only after you confirm it matches the Eight House, then you can fine tune further with the Eight Aspiration. 4. Just like all theories, you have to know what each is for and apply accordingly. Hope that helps. Warmest Regards Robert Lee

Hi, For sleeping position, of course it would be ideal if you can sleep in the direction of the good direction. But sometimes you can't. So most of the time as long as the bedroom sector is suitable for you, you already getting luck from a suitable sector. In addition, the shape and form placement of the bed is sometimes more important than the sleeping sector. The only time you can try to get everything done right is when you first renovate the room as only then do you have the luxuary of setting things right. Anyway, since you cannot do anything here, then what you can do is try to fix up or correct other flaws so as to compensate for this problem. Remember, that there …

Dear Lalarukh, Feng Shui has to do with preventive situations. Most likely it is better to seek proper medical expertise in the current situation. Hope that helps. Warmest Regards Robert Lee

Dear Kianwatt, The first two looks better then the last two. As the last two can sometimes be looked as a sunset, so for living room probably you want to have something which is more bright and pleasant. The 1st picure more more like a Mountain Water scenery. Hope that helps. Warmest Regards Robert Lee

Dear Karen, This has more to with commonsense than feng shui. For example, here one would certainly wish that they stay in a concrete reinforce-cement home. This is because when the washing machine spins it does shake. If one house is made of wooden planks or thin gypsum wooden walls, then sometimes the washing machine may vibrate and this vibration can be felt at the opposite wall plus the noise can be heard. So the only solution is try to place the washing machine too close to the wall. Not much else you can do unless there is space elsewhere that you can relocate your washing machine. Hope that helps. Warmest Regards Robert Lee

Hi Anon, Here is that is Fire will exhaust star 4, and destroy Metal at same time. So this is appropriate to create an element balance between all ths stars since 2 (Earth), 7 (Metal), toilet (water flow), 4 wood, plus fire gives you a perfect five element flow:- Earth -> Metal -> Water -> Wood -> Fire -> Earth. Fire can be represented by colours red or by having a light source. So keeping the place bright or having the red colour will help exhaust the sector. But anyway, since it is the toilet sector is it not a very major concern as having such stars in the bedroom or main door sector. Hope that helps. Warmest Regards Robert Lee

Dear Oliver, Frankly, it is not a good idea. This is because, even when you want to place a pair of lions even at the gate of the home. It is preferred to use two friendly, plum and smiling face lions as opposed to fierce ones. It will definately look very awful to place two cross sword which symbolises an "X" just outside your bedroom window. Hope that helps. Warmest Regards Robert Lee

Dear Guanawan, Careers now-a-days are hard to determine exactly what element they belong to, due to multiple skills involved. Last time, a butcher is a butcher. But generally, for fire element here are just a few list of careers/business and it's relationship to five element based on our Five element section in the Applied Feng Shui ebook. " Chemical process, Fashion, Housewife, Law (prosecution), Livestock, Marketing (sales), Oil, Public Relations, Sales " Hope that helps. Warmest Regards Robert Lee

Dear Daranee, Frankly, it is perfectly ok since if one look at a it from a proper perspective, it does wonders for human or man factors. Although, the text book case of this situation being inappropriate under earth luck, but if it truely comforts your parent. Then this is perfectly fine. In fact, human or man luck factors often overrights any earth luck factors or feng shui. Therefore, do let your father have his way since it truely brings him comfort for the time being. Hope that helps. Warmest Regards Robert Lee
