Dear Mitesh, To be truly honest, this has more to do with relationships, then Feng Shui. From my opinon, usually, if a relationship has carried on for more than 3 years, sometimes, maybe things got taken for granted or "turned dull". It is best that you discuss especially with someone close what could have gone wrong. Or alternatively see if you can first understand what really made you leave her. It takes two hands to clap and often even if there is a third party, there is usually a trigger point for her to just leave you. If she still loves you, perhaps, as mentioned above, see what went wrong and if possible try to win her over again. Warmest Regards, Cecil

Thanks Mr. Lee for your reply. Appreciate it!

In hokkien prawns or "hei" alone is fine. 2. But added with other nonsense words = Kiao hei bee = Die like a shrimp (all curled up) 3. Another famous hokkien saying is " Wu Hu are Hei are Ho";? So long as got fish or prawns is OK. 4. So, "hei" on it's own phoentic sounding in Hokkien is technically ok. But when made into a string of words as mentioned under para 2 is no good. But under Para 3, is ok o…

Dear Chan, Is it possible to attach a simple sketch preferably: 1. The layout plan (it can be a rough one) 2. A sketch of the `bigger' picture i.e. the plot of land in relation to the location of the fire station; roads, neigbhouring houses etc.. In my opinion, it is best to understand the above, properly before I can comment further. (For Para 2, if not a sketch, perhaps can elaborate more about): How high is the property you intend to purchase, where is the ^ `pointed' roof shape `pointed to'. How high is the fire station. What is the distance between it and your house (is there any road between) and whether are there plants / trees in the house compound? If there is a…

Dear Dharmawan, Wow! This is certainly new to me! In my opinion, I would consider this as simply "hocus-pocus" type of linkage or consideration. Imagine, if some of us were born in the year of the rabbit, then, we MUST rear rabbits? Or if we are born in the year of the tiger? How do we rear a free roaming tiger? Hmm... In addition, for many Malays especially in Singapore or Malaysia, have never touched a "dog" or had not rear one as dogs especially their saliva is considered "dirty". More importantly, I would consider this area that you had mentioned as belonging not so much as to Feng Shui (EARTH luck) of the home but rather: Human or man luck area. Here, often esp…

Dear Alan, 1. Yes, the arowana fish is popular as it can be quite expensive. 2. Usually, such fish (which if taken care properly) can grow reasonably large). 3. The Yin and Yang concept: How many fish to rear? More often, 1 (lonely) arowana is reared in a fish tank. 4. This is usually the common practise and in line with the Yin / Yang concept. Where, Yin = equal numbers and Yang = odd numbers. 5. Thus, ideally, 1 arowana fish is reared in the fish tank. Here, since water is considered Yin, the 1 (odd) number fish is considered Yang. There is thus a balance of Yin and Yang in this situation. 6. This also applies to other fishes reared. If one takes into consideration the …

Dear Alex, Please see below:- Most likely, in my opinion, one (a hobbist) is based on passion! And perhaps this could be part of our passion could be translated to Human or man luck factors. Such as feel satisfied, good factors. While perhaps someone who has been "force" or "told" to place a fish tank perhaps may not have such a passion. Therefore, for collectors or hobbist, I always feel that this is not as important.

1. For a fish tank with GOLD fish(es):- Traditionally, should have 7 gold plus one black. Total = 8 fishes. Or as a last resortwhen say one of the gold fish dies.. then it becomes6 gold plus one black. 2. In modern times (today) For koi fish(es), in general, many who can afford to rear such a fish, usually have a large (larger) pond. And it is acceptable to rear as many as one feel - comfortable with it. As 8 koi fishes can seem little in a averaged sized pool. 3. Based on a famous Chinese koi fish painting: this painting has a total of 9 plus 9 fishes (which symbolises 99 ) or longevity! When we count the fishes it is actually 9 + 9 = 18 fishes. 4. On a practical si…

Dear Jen, Please see below:- I am glad that you find the information useful:) Please see sample sketch illustration: 1. In the sketch, one can find a lone (single) lamp post directly outside of the main door. 2. A single (lone) lamp post is symbolic of a `butter knife' e.g. the tall thin lamp post symbolises a knife that seems to slice into the house (via the main entrance). 3. Thus a house will be under `threat if a lone lamp post either slice thru the main door or a window in a house. 4. A REAL threat exists if (please refer to the attached example) a lamp post is between markings A to B of the main door (range). Recently Wasis, posted `an article' ab…

Dear Lola, The good news is that this year, the location of Grand Duke is at South-South West direction and not South direction. If your house is going to be completed this year or early next year (before the next lunar new year); your home is considered a Period 7 home (born or renewed during this period). I personally think that there should not be an issue with `offending' the grand duke for your home. Often, the safest method is for some people is to: 1. Move out during the renovations. 2. If this is not practical or possible, try not to supervise the work done. (For example, don't stand there to watch the ongoing renovation work.) Also wanted Given a landed prop…

Dear Angela, In my opinion, it would be best if you want to apply Feng Shui to get a FS practitioner to go thru all the details. As the modification may affect i.e. the Shapes and Form of the home (itself) and Compass School readings. If you do not want to engage a FS practitioner, you can try to make sure of the following:- 1. Shapes and form Feng Shui. Here, you made a good point by trying to make sure that the house is as rectangular as possible. 2. Outline of the house. Does the house resemble any "human body" shape? If you have not read this article, please go thru it:- http://www.geomancy.net/fs/grandpa1.htm It highlighst an actual case study: House influenced by Fe…

Hi there, I received from my mother a pakua mirror that she received from a friend of hers. I don't know the exact source of the mirror and it might be already used. I think I received it last year or maybe 2 years ago, can't remember exactly. The pakua mirror is for the exterior of the home and I never used it. I just wrapped it in paper and placed it in a cabinet and that's where it's been all this time. Now I want to dispose of it, because I'm not sure of its origin and don't want bad luck. What is the best way of disposing it? After disposal, should I do anything else inside the home? We are…

Master Lee...Once again I turn to you for your honesty on the subject of feng shui. I've written in the past and respect your advise. My husband and I recently moved into a new home. Of course I've turned to your web site and read on the subject and feel as if our new home is a special place. We just received some gifts from good friends of ours and I'm not sure where to place them, or if there is any significance to them. We received the following items: a red smiling buddah; a small circle which is made of silk and satin, has four hanging cone shaped tassles (which are yellow, blue, green and red)and has a red cord attached; and a gold and red bagua mirror. She listed …

Frankly, if one has close relationship with one's brother and sister; then; in my opinion there is no "ill" attached to such gifts even it is during the CNY period. In fact, it is also good for the enviroment; ie. active recycling. Often, many parents would be very glad especially to get hand-me downs especially for their growing children from relatives, cousins and even friends. Under this category; some parents appreciate this very much as often their growing child grows fast and cannot wear them anymore. Furthermore, many feel that such clothings are even more comfortable to wear etc... Thus rather than be concerned; some of us wish we have such a brother and sister..…

Dear Michael, In Mandarin; gift of a clock (phonetic - sounds like) "sending one to a funeral ". Thus, many Chinese never accept a clock as a gift. As since you are not a Chinese, the main excuse is that you do not use the Chinese mandarin language and thus, is ignorant of this. I believe, this has to do more with "culture" and "culture shock" than Feng Shui. Since, one culture's practise does not necessarily mean anything bad to another culture. Thus in the west; a clock or "sounds like" does not resemble anything inauspicious - I personally feel that it should not be a major issue for another culture. Be it a western culture. For example, in some Chinese dialect group, …

1. In general, without looking further into other various concepts:- 1.1. Usually the safer kitchen colours should often be: a. The cabinets: natural wood (can range from teak, maple wood, pine wood, rose wood, darker - hard wood and other wood - wood tone colours). Generally, any range of brown colours. b. Many modern cabinets in the kitchen can also be "metallic" colour tone e.g. silver. And also white. This range of metallic colours are OK for the kitchen. 1.2. Many years back e.g. in the 1970's some homes use green laminated or greenish cabinet colours. This is also OK. 1.3 I mentioned kitchen cabinets as generally in most kitchens, these cabinets account for th…

Hi Master Lee, My bed is currently against the wall due to the rectangular shape of my room and I understand that it is not ideal as energy flows from one side only and it may impact opportunities of finding a partner as well. I am thinking of rearranging my bed and study/work desk as per the image below. However, the “beam” will be above my bed and study/work desk if I shift to the below layout. Would you recommend I stick to the current layout or shift to the potential layout? Thank you!

1. To be honest, it is no value to take a compass direction and not use it. The Compass School Feng Shui, is not only about taking a general reading and (full stop). 2. To enhance a sector, or neutralise a sector or problem; the Compass School Feng Shui (especially Flying Star) has both the TOOLs as well as the means to understand each sector. 3. Under Shapes and Forms Feng Shui, a tree trunk should preferably not "slice" thru the main entrance door or window of our home. If it slices the neighbour's -- not our concern... (This is still a poison arrow or sha qi towards that neighbour - not our home). Nancy W. wrote: I have used the compass direction to determine that…

Dear Anon, 1. A recent message has provided the colours for all the various elements. Reference url: http://www.geomancy.net/fs/colours.htm 2. Overall, one must remember that colours is secondary to Feng Shui. 3. Although it is quite important, but I have to emphasise that it is second to other more important points. For example, if one's house has a toilet at the centre of the house. The most likely effect is a drain in finances or problems with `retaining money.' 4. Other bad Feng Shui include a poison arrow aimed at the main entrance of the house. 5. More scary ones include the description of recent house where death will occur twice (I believe this is shown under th…

Dear Jennifer, Usually, colors is secondary to Feng Shui, however it can ve viewed as follows:- 1. Intitutive or based on one's feelings. Here, one chooses (either consciously or unconsciously) colors that one likes in a room. 2. If one uses Traditional Feng Shui, then it can be based on two main factors:- 2.1 On the upper hierarchy, you have the Yin and Yang concept. Here, as usally the bedroom is meant more for rest than activity, it should be 'more' Yin than Yang. However, this may differ for a student living in a domitory. Here, there should be a balance between yin and yang so that the dorm can be at certain times, be used for `yang' activity such as studies, homewor…
