Dear Sophia, Often, the colour scheme of the toilet is a non-issue. Based on commonsense approach, it is good to see how well "lit" the toilets are. Many toilets have small ventilation windows and most are quite "dark" either because they are close to the centrepoint or does not have much direct sunlight most of the time. Given this, *commensense* approach that the toilet should preferably have lighter coloured tiles especially if there are elderly in the home. More important considerations is the location of the toilet. In particular, it is best to avoid the centrepoint of the home. As the toilet has the water element and wrong locations may not be favourable for weal…

Dear Lina, It is best that one truly understand the "root" reason or "basis" behind this being considered as inauspicious. The reason why it is considered inauspicious is based on "Commonsense approach" where if there is a fire in the home, a most likely location is from the kitchen / stove location. And because should a bedroom be above the kitchen; since fire rises upwards, it may be a cause of concern. On the practical side, it is more worth-while to instal smoke detectors in appropriate places than to rely on "Feng Shui" cures. Use of water in a bedroom or kitchen may often be not a good solution especially if there are electrical points and other electrical equi…

Dear J Seco, When looking at a sector, one must not only look at just one star # but all three: Mountain #; Water # and Base (Palace) # numbers. Usually the cures for #2 is to neutralise it with simple things like 6 coins (big metal) or hulu or both. Another category star #5 or a combination of #5 with #5; #5 with #9 etc...would need constant metal to destroy it. And or the introduction of wood (green plants) to crush it. Thus, the most common constant metal are the use of wind chimes and a "tick-tock" clock such as an old grandfather chime clock. Usually these two objects can be readily purchased outside of the domain of Feng Shui shops or emporiums. Salt cure or sal…

Dear Anon, Hanging a hulu is symbolic in nature thus brass, wood or marble are acceptable with either red or metallic looking string. The only difference is the mark-up or price to line the pocket of the seller. The saying goes, it does not matter if the hulu is made entirely of good quality jade or completely made of 999.99 percent gold etc... Here, it is only a matter of paying $$$$. "A hulu, is but only a hulu". Warmest Regards, Cecil

Dear Michelle, 1. In many of the past forum messages, it is best to "slow down", perhaps take some deep breath before committing to what you had written, below. 2. The key success to anything we do is to understand the purpose of each concept and it's strengths and weakness. 3. Called simply "the three-step-approach": 3.1 What is the purpose of the concept / theory or idea? 3.2 Whatare it's strengths? 3.3 What are it's weakness? 4. For example, what you had mentioned is the Eight House Theory or 4 Good/4 Bad directions. 5. The purpose of this theory is to see whether a home fits the breadwinner or not. I re-emphaise again -- "whether a home fits the breadwinner". …

Dear Sophia, Since Grand Duke is at the location mentioned, it is better to be on the safe side -- i.e. move the grandfather clock away from this location. However, a double edged sword exists if there are nasty #5's x 2 at this location. If so, between choosing ot offend Grand Duke or "submitting" one's soul to devil, it is better should there be a multiple of #5 in that location to leave it to deal with the "devil". The morale of the story? " The Devil has the right of way, first! Grand Duke, move-aside!". Warmest Regards, Cecil

Dear Sophia, Please see below:- It is more a concern than reality. Since the fridge is not known to emit any dangerous radiation or microwave. The only concern is with some fridge *touchwood* is the "heat" .... But given that there isasolid wall between the bed-head and the opposite side fridge, there is no issue, here. The worse "senario" is perhaps a neighbour of the same floor level hanging a (railway station, type of wall clock) facing our unit. Symbolically, the Chinese does not like to "give" a clock to others... Warmest Regards, Cecil

Dear Mara, This type of reasoning does not seem logical. It is like saying that the world is SQUARE? I can understand Muslims, having to pray facing Mecca and when they die and buried, their body i.e. head to legs face Mecca. This is a Muslim's belief. But, East? Why not West? or South? Frankly, if it is suppose to apply to the masses, then, this is a total untruth. Warmest Regards, Cecil

Dear Sophia, Please see below:- Many of us think in terms of enhancing wealth. But many of us do it literally the wrong way. For example, some people force themselves to maintain a fish tank even though this is not their hobby. Imagine, to some of these people, the toil of weekly cleaning the fish tank and other maintenance chores like feeding the fish. To a fish hobbist this is entirely different! To him or her, it is a pleasure to maintain their fish tank! It is the same senario. This "fool" was told that he has to cover his TV set each day before sleeping. And this really silly fool, adds to the sillyness of having to enslave himself with such unnecesary rout…

Dear Mich, Honestly, to ways of looking at Feng Shui: Shapes and Forms and Compass School Feng Shui. Under Shapes and Forms Feng Shui, few people would place a shower under the stairs. Perhaps, a toilet next to it is quite common. However, some of your questions can be commented under Shapes and Forms. But, truly either you should seek expert help or if you know Compass School Feng Shui, best to do a Flying Star chart to analyse especially locations for the dining area, toilet and even kitchen area. Otherwise, to answer your questions is like picking up a dice and rolling it on the table. Whatever comes up is the answer! Not so reliable rite? Warmest Regards, Cecil

Dear Vakta, Definitely not in a (sleeping) bedroom. Usually, it can either be placed in a "private" room such as the study or for the Chinese, it is quite common to be placed in the living room wall(s). But it is best not to place the photos facing the toilet, or share the toilet wall or face the dinning table. Warmest Regards, Cecil

Dear Sophia, In every development there are always units that are either suitable to the breadwinner or may have good Flying Star Feng Shui. Recently, a client bought a reasonably good unit with favourable Flying star Feng Shui i.e. the penthouse unit and also not affected by the afternoon sun. There are still several upper floors that have yet to be sold direclty by the developer. As usual, since no two units are identical, both Shapes and forms and compass school FS has to be applied. There are however, some units at ground level that has it's own P.E.S. (Personal enclosed space). Some of these units may have poison arrow in the form of either a pillar slicing thru …

Dear Mr Teng, Usually, this is considered as an issue but in an apartment as you had mentioned below, not possible to relocate it. For Feng Shui problems, often, there are two or more major flaws within a home to cause us problems. Thus on it's own, it is still acceptable. But if there are more issues in a home, it will add to the problems. Try to make sure that there are if possible, no other major issues in a home. Warmest Regards, Cecil

Dear Anon, Since Grand Duke resides at the West, this year, best not to as you had mentioned not to antagonise the Grand Duke, here. Majority of normal homes don't often use "red dragons" to guard the home. Using dragons to guard the home is thus not common place. Best to avoid placing one at the West entrance. In terms of which elements to use at a specific sector, it is best to use the Flying star numbers to deduce whether a sector can or cannot use red rather than assume that because West = metal = white = tiger, then red = fire to be used here to control metal. Frankly, not too good a method to use. Warmest Regards, Cecil

Dear Sheila, Since traditional Feng Shui has two schools: Shapes and form as well as Compass (Eight House & Flying Star); it is best to apply both to the home in relation to other factors like Grand Duke of Jupiter (Tai Sui). If one is renovating or going to renovate the entire house, it is best to find an aupicious date to start renovations - this will do. And after the renovations, try to avoid any more work to sensitive sectors like NW, West and East. Therefore, this is the only consideration towards what not to do after a major renovation. If one is going to do minor renovations and it happens to fall within any of the above three sectors, then, see if one can …

Dear Sophia, What I meant is that one should not display 6-of-them on the same table or pair them up together. But rather, there is no major issue if they are not ALL figurines but if there is a picture of them and a set of three figurines. Thus I am talking about 2 sets of Fu, Luo & Shou. Much like identical twins : Fu Fu, Luo Luo & Shou Shou. Warmest Regards, Cecil

Dear Anon, Applying Feng Shui is also very similar to taking an examination. For example, many of us can remember having to take say an examination that requires us to answer 4 questions out of 10 questions. Here, many of us would recall our teachers teaching us examination techniques. And the advise by our teacher is to try to attempt to answer all 4 questions instead of only 3. For example, in the past, how many of us do not allocate time for each question. Thus in a 2 hour paper, and if we need to answer 4 questions, this means that we should allocate 30 minutes for each question. How many of us do not do this and as a result, managed to answer only 3 questions and…

Dear Anon, In the past, the most common is the wood Hulu or original wood dried ones. However, in modern times (last few years) it is also common to find brass (gold looking) ones which represent the metal element. These two are if one wants to consider -- the two most "authentic" ones because of the following:- 1. It is often used or placed at locations with #2 or #5. Both are strong earth element. 2. Thus under the Five elements concept: ref: http://www.geomancy.net/resources/theories/fs-5element.htm 2.1 Under the productive cycle, metal destroys earth. Thus, many of those used to at #5 or #2 are made of metal such as brass / copper which resembles gold colour. …

Dear Anon, In the living room area, see if a water feature can be activated here to drown or dissolve double #7's. It is still possible to fly to Period 8, but this can be a slower process i.e. repainting the entire ceiling at one go, having celebrations at home etc... Warmest Regards, Cecil

Dear Chee Kheong, Yes, when you have a wealth luck during the major luck period, it means that you have a greater or higher chance for wealth opportunities. How well you can take advantage of it will depend on yourself especially how strong your element is to be able to control or maximise the opportunities. In such periods it is the better periods for making investments. It is even better, if the current 5-year, yearly, 6-monthly luck are further in your favour. As for lottery, this is hard to say because when it comes to lottery, you are actually gambling against million of other people. Whoever's luck is highest will tend to have a higher opportunity of winning. So …

Dear Cindy, When Flying Star Feng Shui is applied i.e. S2; and if your home was born or had a major renovation done between 1984 to 2003, then one should consider the various important numbers:- #8 - Current prosperity Actually, the mountain star MS#8 is directly at South while WS#8 is at the SW sector. In some homes, the gate is on the side of the home and often the front could benefit (instead) with a wall and a water postion could be determined to see if it can be at SW sector. #7 - Past prosperity but #7 became nasty in 2004. Because of the double #7's at the back of the home; if the home continues to remain as a Period 7 home, than, it would benefit from a water …

Dear Anon, Frankly, I am not too sure how indepth the practitioner had advised your friend. Most commonly, both Shapes and Forms as well as Compass School Feng Shui is applied to a home. Thus Shapes and Forms Feng Shui does not involve time dimension. So does Eight House Theory of the Compass School Feng Shui. Usually, if Flying star Feng Shui is applied, the majority of practitioners would apply firstly the 20 Year Flying Star chart for a given home. As the above name suggests it is a " 20 Year Flying Star " of a home which consists of three variables such as Mountain#, Water# and Base #. These three total 3 variables to balance overall for a home. And a 20 Year F…

Dear Anon, In my opinion, there is really no issue with the red stain. Symbollically, instead, one should not use a cracked &/orchipped Hulu. Thus what you had mentioned is perfectly OK. Can still be used. Warmest Regards, Cecil
