Dear Kris, Please see below:- 1. There is a difference seeing three light lamp posts. This is because, from a window, most of us could see several objects. 2. What is more important is to check to confirm whether: does it `slice' thru the window? 3. If do, the most effective method is "if it cannot be seen, it no longer becomes a threat" i.e. a simple day curtain (that allows light to come-in, yet, can screen out the view.) Or the use of a window blind. 4. THE FISH TANK 4.1 Under traditional Feng Shui, some Feng Shui practitioners advise on the placement of a fish tank at the window area. However, please note that it is best that the breadwinner or his/her spouse is n…

Dear Manuel, Can I check with you what is the concern you have about your bedroom door facing NE. Under Feng Shui, often, our main concern has to do with the `mouth' of the house i.e. the main entrance door. But as for the bedroom door, it should be looked at in a holistic way i.e. the entire bedroom inclusive of the windows, and shape of the room/attached toilet? etc.. And with this information, we can then better work out the best placement of the bed. Warmest Regards Cecil

Dear Anon, 1. Feng Shui is not a `cure all'. 2. A sensible approach is that unless the home has significant good Feng Shui; and if the buyer is wise about Feng Shui, we can bring up good points on the `Feng Shui' of the home. 3. But be careful! This is a double edged sword! Sometimes, the buyer may ask: why you say the Feng Shui is so good yet, one is relocating? The best answer is that one is `upgrading'. Otherwise, it is hard to buy such a story. 4. We therefore refer any of the above as " Earth luck ". 5. On a `Heaven luck' point of view, the other situation is to look at good dates that suits us e.g. auspicious dates. But, again, this is quite limited, since, often w…

Dear Sanjay, 1. The main door, like the human body - is symbolic of the mouth. Since the mouth is an important organ, it is to Feng Shui, also an important area. 2. Often, from numerous past cases, if the main door is at one's death or disaster sector; this is considered as ONE leak. 3. This is akin to having a fractured arm even before moving into the home. And, if there are MORE leaks, then the probability of facing problems arise. For example, other major leaks are like: 1. toilet next to the main entrance. 2. a neighbour's pointed roof aimed at one's main door etc.... 4. As mentioned in previous messages, often, 1 leak is still mangeable. But usually, if there are mor…

Dear Jonathan, 1. In my opinion, it is quite dangerous to practise such "Feng Shui". 2. For example, let me give you an example. Singapore is quite a small island. And if we drove a car at non-peak period, it takes less than 1 hour from Western Singapore to Eastern Singapore. And it takes only about 45 minutes to travel from North to South or vice versa. 3. If one checks several of the messages under this forum; there was a recent message asking whether since the person is a West group person, should he, stay in the West? 4. The question asked is what happens to his family if they are East group persons? It is bad enough for husband and wifes to sleep in separate bedrooms…

Dear Sonali, 1. In the past, I had given an example of often; of how teachers advise their students to maximize their examnation marks. Or briefly the "exam technique". 2. For example, if we are going to take a comprehension exam paper. And we must answer 4 compulsory questions. If the total score = 100 percent then each question is 25 marks. 3. In many situations, we often hear students, only have time to answer 3 questions (some writing out of the point) and often, we did not answer the last question. 4. Many teachers would often advise their students, to allocate their time e.g. if the exam is a 2 hour paper, then spent 30 minutes equally answering each of the 4 compul…

Dear Jen, Since your main entrance area has #2 sickness #5 misfortune/sickness and #3 bad wood, try to avoid: 1. Too much earth elements e.g. yellow, cream or beige at the frontage area. 2. Avoid red colour also at this area (since fire - red colour may further fuel bad earth). 3. For #3, try also to avoid green colour at the frontage. 4. For one, it is ok to place 6 coins above the main door in a single row. Alternatively, see if you can instead place a wind chime outside of this area to help neutralise these three bad combinations. Warmest Regards, Cecil

Dear Chinnee, 1. Yes, the situation you face is considered as an external factor (out of one's control). 2. The key here is that since there is nothing much one can do based on the 4 good and 4 bad directions; we should thus avoid further `leaks' in the home. 3. This is much like human adapatability i.e. each of us have our weakness but, what matters most is to strenghten what we have left. In Feng Shui, it is the same. we should thus try to improve our OVERALL situation (perhaps) in other areas. And thus hopefully, increase our overall "examination marks". Warmest Regards, Cecil

Hello Master Cecil, My element is weak water and my girlfriend is weak wood. As my favourite element according to my ba zi is metal and hers is water, is there anyway that we can improve our relationship such that we can complement each other? As I'm running my own business, what can be done to take advantage of my Wealth element? Warm Regards, Sio Poh

Dear Master Lee, Many thanks for your fast and most helpful response. Regards, Soh Peter Yes, the centrepoint shown is correct. 2) I have a fish tank with 8 gold and 1 black fish. Is the fish tank shown at the right location? If not, where is the best location? Locally, some Feng Shui practitioners often recommend that if there is a fish tank, it is often placed; close to the main entrance door. As shown under the attachment Marking A under the file: fishtank.jpg (This is strictly looked at only from a Shapes and Forms Feng Shui. Sometimes, the practitioner may recommend placing it at Marking B (in the living room or around this area). Please note that often, the abov…

Dear Surinder, In my opinion, your question is too general since you had only mentioned about your main door = NE. Perhaps, the most logical way is to see if you can apply both Shapes & Forms as well as Compass School Feng Shui to make sense of your current situation. Warmest Regards, Cecil Surinder Singh

Dear Jennifer, 1. In my opinion, what you had mentioned dwell more on "commonsense approach" than purely on Feng Shui. 2. Usually, the rationale why a bedroom above a garage was considered inauspicious is much like the idea that it is inauspicious to have a bedroom above the kitchen. 3. For the kitchen; it was felt that the incidence or probability of a fire occuring in a kitchen is much higher than, say in other rooms. Thus the concern. 4. It is similar for the garage. Some people feel that if the garage is cluttered and at the same time, there is a `higher' probability of a fire occuring in the garage e.g. a vehicle (may one fine day catch fire?) 5. But look at it reali…

Dear Leanne, Under the Eight House or 4 Good/Bad directions concept; it does not change in-time. Our birth-date will determine (once and for all) our best facing (worst) facing directions. This concept of the Eight House and Flying Star Feng Shui both belongs to the compass school of Feng Shui. However, the Flying Star Feng Shui - simply put - is about the birth chart of a home. Look at it this way: humans do not change their birth date. Unless - (if one believes) in re-carnation. On the other hand, often, a building or home is like a `shell' it can be refurbished (major renovation), torn-down etc.. And if so, this changes it's birth date. Yes, it is good not to wait for…

We are moving into a leased house. According to the analysis from this site, I am an east person and my husband is a west person. Should we place the bed to favor him since he is the main breadwinner? Also, our house and front door face east in the "death" sector-- is there anything we can do to improve this?

Sir, I recently moved into a new home with my partner. Our bed position faces south (head points south) which is good for me, but bad for him. What cure can I incorporate into our bedroom to remove the bad energy for him. Thank you very much.

I'm getting in the mood to repaint my living room. But I'm wondering, and I'm in no big hurry, is it better to hold off till after the 8 period kicks in. If so, will the qi of the home adapt to that new vibration? Thanks.

Dear Master Lee: I am living in a 5 room flat. We have two bath rooms in our house. One is near the dinning hall & the other is in our Master bed room. My queries are pertaining to the bath room near the dinning hall. 1) The design is that this outside bath room has got two opening folding doors which allow us to walk thru' from service balcony to the long corridor leading to the master bed room & vis versa. Whenever we need to use this bath room, we need to close both sides of the door. My question is: I've heard from my relative that this two opening (folded door) will lead to a hazard to our marriage life either led to divorce situation. Is this true? If true, …

i can't move the dog to another house cos i only own 1 house. and its quite a small one, so i can't "keep the dog away from me" too. it doesn't help that i like dogs, and so is my wife. so i was wondering if there was any way both me and the dog can co-exist in the same house. good thing is my dog did not die during the 2 years she was here with me, but i was thinking things may be better if there is no "clashing". any suggestions? thanks for the help

Dear Lei Sun, This idea was first mooted out by several Austrailian Feng Shui practitioners in the past: this was around the mid 1990's. But, several of these practitioners had retracted this method. Even down-under, one should still use the current North-South compass orientation - and should not flip it to South-North. This is the current consensus amongst most Traditional Feng Shui practitioners. Warmest Regards, Cecil I am living Best Regards Lei

Dear Sanjay, It depends. Often for the purpose of looking at an office; we often sectionalise or subdivide each room / office room into sectors. But for a home, it is much easier to take the complete home and do a full single chart. But if one's home is huge e.g. the left wing or the right wing etc.. than it can be further subdivided. Warmest Regards, Cecil

Dear Meei Jinn, Often if you are close to the equator, I personally find that the geographical North often coincides with the magnetic North. For a layperson, one often use a hiking compass. It still points to the magnetic north. For us, we often use a higher grade compass like the Suunto or other better brands. This is because; the higher professional compass often are "balanced" to a specific zone. For example,the Suunto brand categorise the world into 5 different compass zones. Northern hemisphere which includes Canada/North America falls under Zone 1 etc... But one is not expected to buy this type of compass. From my personal analysis; if you are in Singapore, more li…

Dear Mr. Lee, When checking to see if a house number is auspicious, does one go by the date the last renovation was completed or when it began with regards to the period? Thanks
