Dear Jim, There are two ways at looking at having a fish tank: 1. For enjoyment. 2. `Reading' from somewhere and buying a fish tank and hoping for something auspicious to happen. Jokingly, I remembered seeing the title of a book " What they don't teach you in Harvard Here it is the same thing with fish tank. " You may end up with more than one can bargain for with fish tanks ". Is it better off not knowing FS? Usually, when one purchase a fish tank, we normally would have visualised a location in our home to place the fish tank. In most instances, it is usually at one side of the wall and not the centre of the house. In fact, intution plays an important part especial…

Dear Abhijit, In general, fish tank should be placed against a wall. Usually, I believe, the fish tank that has been placed at north is meant more as a hobby piece. Rather than for Feng Shui purpose. Without much more investigations (e.g. using the various methods especially, the Flying Star Feng Shui, therefore, one can only say that it is ok, since you may have it there for sometime already. Warmest Regards, Cecil

Further to my earlier reply: It is `acceptable' for flowers to be placed in the bedroom especially for those who are `recuperating' from an illness. This is inline with the common practise of giving flowers to those who are staying in a hospital bed especially after an operation. Hospitals are `more yin' environment especially the hospital bedrooms. Introducing some `Yang' into the rooms such as flowers will certainly brighten it. This can be introduced to a bedroom especially for those who are recovering e.g. from an operation or illness. This is more a common practise rather than `shoulder' it on Feng Shui. Warmest Regards, Cecil

Dear Carina, Please see below:- 1. Ideally, please check that it should not be in the North sector of the home. 2. Where possible the stove should face inwards i.e. face inwards of the main door. If the above are met, it is still considered acceptable. Usually, a small table, be it hexagon, square etc.. (coffee table) will not make an impact on the house. Usually, the table should not have a poison arrow aimed at e.g. the sofa. As for the Ba Gua table, its angle or 8 corners should not pose a problem as it is not like the corners of a rectangle or square table at 90 degrees angle. I assume that the beam must be a concrete beam. If you are staying in Singapor…

Dear Tegs, If I read your message correctly, I believe you will be placing the headrest of your bed against a wall. This is a good choice. If you have a low linen cupboard, you can actually place it at the foot of the bed. Alternatively, whether it is possible to use a privacy screen or any other cabinet e.g. a low book shelf (with the shelf) facing outwards towards the door. Taking into consideration "priorities", the legs facing the door is not as bad as the bed against a window etc... Warmest Regards, Cecil

IN SUMMARY "The laughing Buddha serves as a symbol of joy and positivity in home decor, offering a welcoming presence that contrasts with more serious figurines. Its versatility as a decorative item allows for placement in various settings without strict adherence to traditional rules." Master Cecil Lee, Geomancy.net +++ These are some considerations: 1. The laughing Buddha shares a similar theme as a pair of chubby well-endowed smiling lions found on the gate posts of some landed property homes. 2. Instead of a fierce looking chi-lin or qi-lin "guarding a home" 3. What this means is than especially for the owners of a home; coming hom…

Dear William, 1. We have been using the Flying Star Feng Shui to look at or help aid in a `favourable' outcome of a legal action. Not thru the use of statues or objects. 2. I am not sure, your question is for yourself or for others. But, if you are facing any court decision, we like to give you a complimentary Free "paid Flying Star" report. This is because, the Flying Star report can help to identify star " #4 " i.e. which is associated with legal entanglements. If a proper Flying Star analysis is done, one may find in some instances the 81 combinations (interpretations) have specific issues on `legal entanglements'. Here, one should redress sectors that have such `legal…

Dear Anon, Anonymous wrote: # My sister picked up a small statue of the lion (as in Singapore harbour). But should this actually be displayed in the house? Generally, any fierce animal tends to have very strong yang or sha Qi. If you really like the item as a beautify decorative items, do go ahead and place it wherever it makes the place nice and feel good. However, if you are planning to put it just because of feng shui. Then my advise is to keep it.

Dear Bee Cheng, Most of the time, majority of `cures' required has to do with the use of metal element especially to cure bad earth i.e. #2 and #5 and bad wood e.g. #3 & #4. Thus, it is less of an issue with regards to finding a location for a metal safe. If one wants to go into further detail, Flying Star would provide better `fine-tuning' but otherwise, I personally feel, try to place it in a room especially at one corner. Warmest Regards, Cecil

Dear Erika, 1. Frankly, there are two `ways' at looking (placement of a mirror). 2. Some would do some Feng Shui analysis e.g. using Compass School i.e. especially using Flying Star to analyse whether a sector is auspicious or inauspicious. 3. If the sector is inauspicious, it is not ideal to place a mirror e.g. on the wall of this inauspicious sector as it is considered bad luck as it may bounce back twice the bad luck. 4. In your case, since we are fully applying the above concepts; you may have to rely on your instincts or feelings. If you personally feel nice having a mirror in the room; do so. 5. For the mirror, it would be good as you had mentioned to keep (at least…

Dear Kathlene, Currently, based on the Flying Star for this Lunar year i.e. 16 Feb 1999 to 4 Feb 2000, the bad earth element is at the South compass. Where possible, it is considered unfavourable to have a mirror at this sector as it could inadvertenly bounce back twice the `bad luck' at this sector. In my opinion, it is best to avoid having a mirror at this sector for the above period. Warmest Regards, Cecil

Dear Susan, 1. If one asks quite alot of different FS practitioners, the chances are many will say it is a (NO NO) to have a mirror face the bed. A BELIEF: 2. The reason or (BELIEF) is that because, it was felt that when we sleep, our spirits "wonder-out" of our body and it may get a shock seeing one's self in the mirror. This is the rationale why many FS practitioners way say that it is bad for a mirror to face the bed. 3. It is interesting to note the survey results in this poll section: http://www.geomancy.net/poll/poll.pl In the above link; you can look thru the results for the following poll questions: a. If your TV set is facing the bed, do you cover the screen bef…

Dear Carina, 1. Currently, there is no `rule' to say that a mirror can only be placed in the dinning, living and toilets. But rather, we should understand the reasoning behind what was mentioned. 2. The reason for placing in a toilet is because most master bedrooms have an attached bathroom. Because of this, it is `advisable' to place the mirror above the wash basin rather than in the bedroom area. This is because some of us are more `sensitive' to mirrors facing the bed. It is still acceptable to place the mirror on the dressing table if it does not face the bed. 3. Some of us are not sensitive to mirrors even if they face the bed. So, here it does not apply to everyone.…

Dear Wasis, Here are some important points with regards to a pair of lions:- 1. Usually Feng Shui practitioners advise the use of lions - if it is for the home, at an inauspicious sector of the house. 2. Where possible the lions should face outwards of the house. 3. Lions placed in the house should not look too fierce or ferocious. They should look `peaceful' and happy. If they look fierce. They must never have their mouths face inside of the house. 4. Lions are used for:- 4.1 Either to ward off evil and /or 4.2 to bring in good luck into the house. 5. The common form of a pair of lions are made of stone. While those made of wood as what you have are often seen on roofs …

Dear Gustavo, Please see below:- You should place the Ba Gua mirror above the main entrance door (directly at the centre). It is best to use a convex mirror to deflect sha qi (poison arrow). And not the concave mirror which is used to absorb good qi (for auspicious location). Alternatively, you can use a semi-circular carpet which radiates out of the house. If the toilet is at `true' compass points e.g. 0 degrees, 45 degrees, 90 degrees etc... frankly nothing can be done here. Other than to close the toilet door when not in use, keep the location bright and dry. Warmest Regards, Cecil

Dear Anon, All these objects have more to do with commercialisation, than Feng Shui. One should take these items as a decorative item. For example, if one is too free, can make an experiment: 1. Mon, Tue, Wed = let it face the main entrance 2. Thurs = face the living room 3. Friday = face NE 4. Saturday = face SE 5. SUNDAY? Hmm... " How about throwing it away?" Warmest Regards, Cecil P.S. The morale of the story? " Para 5 - It is a good idea!"

1. Frankly, such products should be taken as "decorative" items. 2. Many take advantage of us humans and sell these products unfortunately in-the-name of Feng Shui! 3. The reason is simple: These products are cheap to produce but sold at very very high mark-up. I wonder who earns all these money. 4. Just pause for a moment and think:- Especially for those born in on or before 1975; how often do you see your parents or grand parents buying so many of these commercial "thrash?". 5. In the past, the ONLY items that are easily purchased were simple Fu Lu Shou figurines. And these are easily considered as merely decorative items. 6. Imagine in your grand parents time or…

Don`t think too much about all those stars! They are not too dangerous as we used to think. The worst of them is 5 so it is the only star we should think of. It is in NW of each house this year and we know what to do with this. What about your plants... You can place them anywhere you like but in the bedroom.Justtake a good care of your plants. If they are good looking and healthy it is good Fengh Shui. A bedroom is the only place where it doesn't have to be any plants.

1. Usually, the most common method to determine whether it could be used at that sector is thru the 20 Year Flying Star chart. 2. For example: if the main entrance area has nasty stars like:- 2.1 #5 and/or #2 and/or with #9 then RED will further inflame either #5 (misfortune/sickness) or #2 (sickness) 2.2 On the other hand, if the sector has #3 or even #4; RED would be good at that sector. 3. "Rule-of-thumb" method: some just ignore what I had mentioned above - and go for it......

Dear Anon, 1. Under one aspect of house suitability using Ba Zi Feng Shui; if the house is considered a " Wood house " by virtue that the main entrance is facing say East or South East. And one member (especially the breadwinner) is a Strong Earth person; in this situation: 2. Under the Five Elements Concept: 2.1 A `WOOD' HOUSE vs `STRONG' EARTH PERSON Good Match. The wood house is considered favourable as it helps to "control" or help (aid) a Strong Earth person. 2.2 A `WOOD' HOUSE vs `WEAK' EARTH PERSON Inauspicious. As wood will further weaken a Weak Earth Person. 3. The above is one of the many aspects we look at the relationship between Ba Zi (Pillars of Destiny usin…

Dear Joan, Frankly, if this is your home (not shared or rental), it is best to have clear space e.g. air-circulate around the room rather than have a portable screen (since this is the side of bed facing the door) and not one's leg facing the door. If you do feel uncomfortable, then in the evening, simply close the bedroom door. Warmest Regards, Cecil
