My wife and I are thinking of buying a house at the center of a cul-de-sac. There are three houses on this cul-de-sac, and the one we're considering is at the center. The front of the house though is not perfectly perpendicular to the street, and is tilted somewhat towards the right (if you're facing the house). Th house faces Northwest, and it has a fireplace on it Southeast wall. Does this have the same effect as having a house on a t-junction? Is this house badly situated? Your guidance on this will greatly be appreciated. -Patrick

Dear Todd, Congratulations! For a newbie, you did a great job in researching and constructing a Flying Star Chart. 1. Yes, given that Grand Duke is at SW this year, it is indeed a good idea to give up on placing the tub at this sector, here. 2. At South-East sector, quickly: #1 = water #2 bad earth and #4 is wood. Quoting your research: "Lu Qi V2.3 Flying Stars of House - Metal is the cure, as it weakens the Earth and strengthens the Water of the good star 1. Possibly Wood, which fed by Water, controls the aggressive Earth of 2. But no mobile Water, that would activate the bad star 2!" Based on the Five elements concept: http://www.geomancy.net/resources/theories/fs-5el…

Dear A J, Generally, IF the home is a Period 8 home, majority of SE facing homes have favourable Flying Star especially water star 8 at this sector. This is one consideration. Under the Eight House, it is best also to check the eight house influence in the master bedroom. Hopefully it is not you or your partner's disaster or death side. Alternatively, in Feng Shui, there is a possibility of tilting the main door towards a good facing direction. This is said to be "killing two birds" with one stone i.e. no longer face inauspicious direction and changed to a good favourable main door direction. Warmest Regards, Cecil

Dear Anon, Yes, sometime back in the 1970's it was very common to purchase boomerangs from Oz. Frankly, I myself had also did decorate my home with a single boomerang and at one time two huge fork and spoons! So far, to me, it seems that they do not remotely look like knifes or swords. Thus I feel it is OK. Warmest Regards, Cecil

Hello Cecil A friend asked if I hv an answer in Feng Shui term with her recent experience. Perhaps, you can help! 1. Wife is a weak Water, Metal being her favourable element & Earth is most unfavourable 2. Husband is a strong Fire, Earth being his favourable element & Wood is most unfavourable The husband bought a motorbike recently. One day when she got to her garden she was startled to see a huge brown snake coiling around most of the front bike up to the handle bar. Jokingly I said to her that perhaps she is being smothered & almost choked with some personal life pressure that was a little obvious from my observation. Thank you. Rosni

Dear Master Cecil, I live in a double storey terrace house. At the ground floor, my backyard was extended by erecting a wall on the left and right covered with awning, but the back is only covered with 2 feet concrete wall and grills up to the awning level. I didn't do any hacking at the back when I extended the backyard. Which means all the original structure and backdoor to the backyard remains. Whether the backyard is considered as part of the house when we apply eight mansion/flying star feng shui? I use the backyard as wet kitchen and hanging wet clothes. In the front part of my house, my car porch is located here and attached to the house without wall & door enc…

Dear Eleni, If you are D.I.Y. Feng Shui, then, it is best that you may have to (depending on your interest and absorption), take as little as a month or even 6 to 1 year to really understand some of the key principles. I understand, many of us, simply want to read a book on Feng Shui and apply the ideas immediately. However, it is not like "William Hung" of the American Idol fame, http://www.williamhung.org who thinks that every area can be "cultivated" or worked on for everyone. For example, several years back, this Doctor, sought to practice Feng Shui. Usually doctors are intelligent people. But this doctor thought that Feng Shui is just like reading books on the human …

Dear Samatha, Another alternative is the grille gate. Here, for example, if one has a stainless steel or aluminium gate, some of the panels can be flushed with "steel" or aluminium sheet. Such that for the steel sheet, it covers e.g. the knee level or sometimes we see aluminium gates that have a large area covered up. It is nice to have the steel sheet covering the gille gate surface as it is reflective. And this reflection is akin to a ba gua mirror. Warmest Regards, Cecil

Dera Fiona, To be honest, one area to look at is Feng Shui. But equally important is many other factors especially that each of our character has been formed throughout our young age. This is why, most of the time, when we reach 18 or 21, we are allowed to sign a specific signature. As our character component is already comprise of what we are. Under Chinese horoscope, the only explanation is that the best match for a Rat partner is the dragon or monkey. Whilst the ram is not as a good match. The worst conflict is a horse with rat. Usually, the major part of Feng Shui is to allow for a good home environment conducive to family life. And from here, the spin-off is that a g…

Dear Nisha, Actually, the concern of a mirror facing the bed stems from the belief that when one sleeps, some Chinese belief that the spirit leaves the body. When doing so, it may get a "shock" to see itself in the mirror. This is why, often, numerous Feng Shui books or practitioners does not favour having a mirror facing the bed. However, in the past I had mentioned that more importantly, it has to do with "how sensitive" we are or are not. For example, contrary to the above belief, we could say that when we sleep, our spirit, leaves our body. And, because it wants to look nice, look into the mirror and combs his/her hair before, going off! 2. Overall, we often hear tha…

Thank you for such an informative site! I'm trying to map out my home to identify the different sectors but I'm stuck as to which I should consider my front door. I live in a three family home (each apartment has it's own floor and we're on the street level floor). The door that goes out to the front (street side) of our house is used very infrequently- by the occasional visitor and by us only to check the mailbox. The back door is used by our family to enter and exit the house (our garage is back there) and by our closest relatives when they come to visit. I'm thinking that our back door should be our "front door" when placing the nine squares over a plan of our home but…

Dear Mr. Cecil Lee, My Kua number is 2, My Eight house chart is Southwest. The main door of my house is in the North direction. My master bed room is in the Southeast section of the house (which is one of my bad directions) and attached to the bathroom/toilet via an open space between. Please help me to clarify these questions: 1. Does the curtain hung in the open space between the bed room and the bath/toilet room will enhance the good sha in the bed room? Currently I hang a thin curtain in this place and always close the toilet bowl lid and the toilet door when not in use. 2. If I like to place my bed in the NE section in the Master bed room, should I use the NE compute…

Dear Cheng Teik, Even if heavy knocking was done prior to Feb 2004, do check the following: 1. roof - is the roofing done on or after this period. 2. main door? does the main door remain or will it be changed after Feb 2004. 3. Is the main door or other fittings e.g. no window frame or window fitted especially at the frontage or the main door has not been fitted yet. 4. Has the kitchen being fully renovated and stove placed in? If any of the above remain uncompleted, then, it is safe to say that one's home will going to be a Period 8 home. Even if a home is a Period 7 home, it can still `fly' to Period 8 (but not the other way around). Doing some of the activities mentio…

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
