Dear Ingo, Usually, a river head is like a dragon's head. And often a river location draws activity. When water is concerned, it is considered inauspicious if: 1. it becomes a stagnat pool of water. 2. if the river seems to `cut-into' the development. Yes, your city sounds very enchanting:) 3. Overall, based on your description, the building you live in sounds ok to me. Often, it is the friction of water with air(even if it is on the surface of a river) that creates ions. Better if it is positive ions that are created. Reference url: 1. Water classics of AD600:- http://www.geomancy.net/resources/art/art-wclassic.htm 2. Water, water, everywhere... http://www.geomancy.…

Dear Anon, Please see below:- Actually, the best is one with a `metal' roof and with the clinger of an I-ching (circle with square) coin. However, from personal experience and because if it is to be used to neutralise #5 or multiples of it; many of the above mentioned wind chimes are too heavy to make any sound unless it happens to have heavy winds. This is because the copper rods with the coin clinger is too heavy. But, if one is currently using the above wind chime and other than for decoration; then this is fine. Thus, it is my opinion, that (FOR PRACTICAL) reasons i.e. if one wants to neutralise #5 or multiples of it or any other combinations with #3, #4 and even…

Dear Vijay, I recommend that you take a three step approach: 1. What is the purpose of each concept? 2. What is it's strengths? 3. What is it's weakness? If the above is clearly understood, there is no issue in understanding what is 8 directions/Eight House vs Pillars of destiny (Ba Zi). There are already lots of replies to such related questions. Please do a SEARCH and try to figure out the above:) Warmest Regards, Cecil

Dear Leroy, Many of us have grown up with pets e.g. companion dogs etc... in our home. But in a school environment, we are not allowed to keep them. Frankly, since you are young, and if you really enjoy having a small bowl of fish, usually, there is really no issue in doing so. I believe, it can serve as a stress relief:) Go with what your heart feels:) Warmest Regards, Cecil

Dear Anon, The Finding A Good House report has three dimensions: 1. Breadwinner's Eight House (East/West group) or Gua analysis 2. The specific Flying Star chart of an apartment. 3. Ba Zi of the breadwinner. Here are some important considerations: 1. Where possible, the ideal `house' or main door is where: in all three cases: Best choice is where all the above THREE CRITERIAS (Para 1, 2 and 3) is auspicious to the breadwinner. 2. What happens if it does not? Then, it is best to use this advice: 1. Eight House Analysis 1.1 DEATH OR DISASTER AT MAIN ENTRANCE? 1.1.1 Where possible, the main door SHOULD not be the DEATH or DISASTER to the breadwinner. 1.1.2 If so, this is al…

Dear Anon, It should be noted that Feng Shui or other divinity method is always relevant because: 1. Lowest Common Denominator All Feng Shui, divinity methods, medicine, food etc... uses the Five Element Concept. 2. Yin and Yang This is another major form of Feng Shui. 3. Compass School readings on Earth Luck 4. The Chinese always use the magnetic compass for their compass school Feng Shui. 5. And as we all know, it is based on the magnetic North anywhere in the world. This magnetic North can change; but if it does, the readings always follows the South-North marking. And these readings are taken on the planet earth and not on the planet mars, moon or jupiter. 6. Compass…

Dear Anon, You may like to review the attached resource on the Devil's gate:- http://sg.geomancy.net/resources/art/art-gate.htm and on Dangers of underground water http://sg.geomancy.net/resources/art/art-under.htm Please see below:- In general, water positions behind the house is not ideal. And also, the main entrance door should not open to a house that is literally built on a slope. For example, the living room etc... Warmest Regards, Cecil 1. Feng Shui originates from China. And it was imported to Japan. Many Japanese practitioners apply 9-Star Ki which is one and the same as Flying Star Feng Shui. 2. A large tree is `dangerous' as it was felt that a spirit …

Dear Anon, Please refer to (C) Geomancy.net's Flying Star report input template. Since your house is located at 160 degrees, then select 165 degrees since your house is considered as between the compass direction 157.5 degrees to 172.4 degrees. Your main door is located at the south. If one looks carefully at the attached template, one will find that each sector is based on 15 degrees each. For example North 1 is at 345 degrees, North 2 is at 0 degrees etc.. Warmest Regards, Cecil

Dear Anon, 1. Appreciate if you can clarify whether you meant 160 degrees to the North (to the right) or 160 degrees to the North - to the left). 2. Usually, a protractor is an addition. We must need to use the magnetic or ordinary compass first to find the exact North-South bearing. And make a confirmation using the East-West. 3. Next, we need to determine the centrepoint of the house. 4. Only then we can use say the protractor to look at the layout plan. 5. Please take a look again at the sample protractor. It has an outer ring: starting from clock wise, we start from 0 degrees, to 90 degrees to 180 degrees to 270 degrees. 6. Once we align the protractor's North-South,…

Dear Anon, Yes, usually, the garage should not be included. 1. A main door can still be at the middle of the rectangular. If so, check for external threats. And internally, it should best not be too close to the centrepoint of the house. 2. And, where possible, qi should not leak directly out of e.g. the back window (if any). 3. I personally wish, if users to post such questions, it is best to attach a sketch. 4. My current reply is based on my personal perception of your question; whether it has been interpreted rightly or wrongly; I cannot say for sure:( Warmest Regards, Cecil

Dear Yasmin, 1. Usually, and most often, decorating a home or doing all the planning and shifting to a new home can be `taxing' considering that, one has to get on with our lives e.g. work, family commitments. 2. If one is applying Feng Shui and choice of colours, it should not be an issue; since, a proper reading can tell which colours are best for both parties e.g. binding element: best colour for the master bedroom, and colours for the living/dining and even colour scheme for other family members. 3. Otherwise, any other type of application of Feng Shui is akin to `throwing' a random dice. Warmest Regards, Cecil

Dear Anon, 1. Yes, any smell that filters into your home is not auspicious or even hygenic. 2. Since, this is preventable and not a permanent situation; frankly, try your best (if you can) to see at your end, try to be as diplomatic as possible to speak to your neighbours. Otherwise, there is really not much one ca do. Warmest Regards, Cecil

Dear Mimi, Sound economic sense previals over Feng Shui with regards to setting up a business: 1. What is the pedestrian traffic flow to the shopping centre? 2. Is this shopping centre meant for a specific type of business e.g. electronics plaza? health/health science related shopping centre? 3. What is the business model / business plan i.e. is the business viable? Or is the business based on hope or a fad? 4. For example, three to four years back, I often receive calls from `businessmen' who wanted me to Feng Shui, their (Taiwanese) model of `bubble tea' outlets. 5. These bubble tea is roughly the equavalent of something like the western " milk shake " business. These …

Dear Anon, 1. Yes, I know of some FS practitioners are selling them. 2. Frankly, the eight rod wind chime is a modern invention. 2.1 The reason why I call this a modern invention is because, the Chinese dialect group Cantonese, likes the phonetic sound of `8' or Fatt, or prospertiy. 2.2 Because of this connotation, the trend or fad for the eight rod wind chime started or originated from Hong Kong. 2.3 Locally, I believe some FS practitioners also `catch' on with this. Not so much of its proper use but rather, in my opinion, a profit element. 2.4 Imagine, the cost price of such items can be as low as a few dollars. (Especially if they are manufactured in bulk and with low…

Dear Anon, When confronted with such issues, we can logically:- 1. How long have u stayed in this house? 2. If one has stayed in the home for more than 6 months and do not encounter obstacles especially financial or health, then, the tree is not a major problem. But if it does, than, it is a potential threat to the breadwinner. 3. It is true that if the tree `mysteriously disappear' *JOKE* or has been removed, then there is no issue. 4. If it does not slice thru your main door directly, then usually this is not a threat to your main door. 5. If despite of Para 4, one faces problems, then, try to check for other leaks (either several minor leaks) or a combination of one o…

Dear Judith, 1. It would be best to see what type of dragon design is on the calendar. 2. If it is a simple cartoon dragon with body `flying' around, there is no issue. 3. If it is a fierce looking dragon especially with 5 claws, it is best that the room has at least a window. Avoid placing it in a room without any windows. Overall, if it is just a piece of outline art with the monthly calendar superimposed on it, usually there may not be an issue here. Warmest Regards, Cecil

Dear Anon, 1. I hope you can understand that the advice given is very general. 2. In Feng Shui there is always no two situation that is alike. Especially since many of us have different personal birth charts and the birth charts of family members. 3. As you can see, if you browse thru this forum, there are many variable and situations. 4. If you are refering to the East/West group or Eight House Charts; this is only one of the zig-saw puzzles. 5. I will always emphaise that, everyone must know the Purpose, Strength and Weakness of each concept. 6. It is always good to have the house fit the breadwinners. As this will reduce one `handicap'. Usually, for problems to occur i…

Dear Spring, Please don't despair. With regards to the house Feng Shui, you mentioned that your bedroom is on the `east side'. Try to stand at the centrepoint of the house and use an ordinary compass to check to see if your bedroom is at the compass direction east. If your house was built or had a major renovation done between 1984 to 2003; most likely if your bedroom is at the `East'; for last year there will defintely be a Yearly #5 (misfortune and sickness) at that sector. This does not include at least a base #5 (misfortune and sickness) star at East. And usually there is another #5 or #2 in this location. If so, for Lunar New Year starting from 1 February 2003, the …

Dear Kayte, 1. It is advantages for you to plot both the Period 6 and Period 7 Flying Star chart especially if you had already stayed in the house for at least a few years. 2. Firstly, look at it this way: "No harm". Why? 3. This is because, if one had stayed in the house for sometime, one can see which charts are more accurate. For example, if any of the bedrooms are in the East or South, or especially at the East, and if family members had being staying in the `East' room for sometime without any issues on health; then, the chart closely mimic that of a Period 6 house. 4. It does not matter, therefore, if one is advised to use Period 6, 7 or even later period 8. 5. When…

Dear Vijay, 1. Usually, we have to be pragmatic when applying Flying Star or the Eight sectors. 2. If our house or apartment is small to medium sized e.g. 800 sq feet to 3,000 sq feet, usually we do not need to subdivide the house into various sectors. Especially if we own the entire house. 3. In a house environment, if we are using Flying Star, more important considerations are the frontage and the back of the house. 4. However, I would agree with you, that in some cases, it would be good to do sub-sectional Feng Shui for offices. This is because, many individual offices do have their own internal floor area and their specific main door. 5. For a home, I would recommend …
