Dear Anon, A kitchen located in the prosperity sector is ok. One need to look out instead for the following:- 1. Avoid any parts of the stove being supressed by ceiling beam above it. 2. Water pipes should not criss-cross along the stove. (It should be hidden from view). 3. For the stove; the knobs should face upwards towards the ceiling (in a neutral position) especially if the stove face `outwards' of the main entrance of the house. 4. If the kitchen is at the North sector, it is best that the stove does not face a water position. Warmest Regards, Cecil

Dear Kamini 1. In my opinion, many of us are led wrongly to believe that our romance sector is at the South-West. 2. In fact, many book authors and those who sell things to enhance that sector are infact the only ones " Laughing to the Bank ". 3. It is certainly sad to see this situation. 4 Let us look at an illustration:- 4.1 Let's say if three of us are young bachelor males working in any office. There is a new lady colleague who has just joined us. 4.2 One of us would place a mandarin duck in the South-West sector. For me, I may have palced 12 roses at South-West sector. 4.3 The third male colleague, who knew of what three of us are doing; try to out bid the two of …

Dear Elizabeth, In my opinion, the placemetn of e.g. family moneybox does not feature prominently in many schools of Feng Shui.' The only school of Feng Shui which is related more towards buddhism i.e. buddhist belief of the Eight Treasures. Feng Shui practitioners with such buddhist inclination often make use of the term Eight Treasures. And in fact, they ask their clients to bury e.g. the Eight Treasures (prior) to the house being ready at the main entrance and corners of e.g. the living room. I believe, you treasure your family moneybox and do not want to see it `buried'. As shown in the above example. You can choose to place your family moneybox in the living room or…

Dear Desiree, Thanks for your clarification. In my opinion, stairs leading down may not necessariy mean bad energy. However, it has to be looked on a case-by-case basis. For example, in Singapore's Business District, there are some office buildings where were purposely built such that every one has to walk down (as you have described) to the lobby. And here, they either have one of the e.g. three elevators or (stairs) to their office that is more than 18 floors high. An example is the `Tong Eng' Building at Cecil Street in Singapore. The rationale here is that contrary to popular notations; many developments or buildings are of this design for two main reasons: 1. Because…

Dear Angelica, 1. Usually, such bad luck or misfortune arises from the Feng Shui of the previous owner's house. Especially if the house has a missing corner at the North sector of their exisiting home. Or where at a specific situation when the accident of the son could be due to the concentration of Flying Stars #5 x 2 or more either in the 20 year or yearly or even monthly charts. 2. In my opinion, the bad luck most likely will not be passed on. However, since you intend to go into business; it would be prudent to look at the Flying Stars of this shop space for your restaurant. With regards to any sectors that may have too yin a sectors. And if so, it should be cured. …

Dear Hoa Luong, Please see below:- Yes. From the centre-point of your house and with the use of an ordinary compass, if your master bedroom face south-west then this should be correct. Or if the compass shows that your bathroom is at south direction then this is correct. There is no cure for this. Please refer to a recent message that I had replied to on this same subject. Actually one can do a SEARCH in the forum for key words like " Kitchen " and the following will show up:- -- Start -- Topic: Cures for Bedroom Over Garage?

Hi Cecil, Now that I know where the center of my house. I have a few more questions: 1) Is the direction for my bedrooms related to the house center? Example, my master bedroom is located in the southwest sector of the house and my master bathroom is located in the south sector of the house. Can I assume that my master bedroom faces southwest and my master bathroom faces south? 2) The master bedroom is right above 1/3 portion of the garage. Is that bad and what's the cure? 3) The master bathroom's toilet is right above the front door (which sits in the South "spook" sector and my gua number is seven). I know this is bad, but what is the cure for this? 4) My prosperity sec…

Dear Anon, To be frank, it is quite difficult for me to give a definite answer as to whether it is Ok to paint the inside red. This is because, in a FS audit, many considerations are taken into consideration. If a deeper analysis is not required, then, perhaps, one may have to rely on one's six sense or ask family members for their comments. Warmest Regards, Cecil

8 aspirations & west group persons

Dear Sarita, 1. Currently, in my opinion, the most popular concept that is floating in the internet and around the world is the Eight Aspirations concept. 2. This concept, is second (in popularity) to the Eight House Theory. 3. The difference between the Eight House Theory and the Eight Aspirations is that at least, the Eight House Theory is personalised to an individual. Contrast this to the Eight Aspirations or also commonly known as Life Associations/Aspirations. 4. I feel that the major flaw with the Eight Aspiration concept is that it is not personalised to anyone. If we look carefully at all the major theories; they are infact `customised to':- 4.1. Either the pers…

Dear Leanne, In my opinion, your question is too general. To learn more you could either: 1. Purchase some starter books on Feng Shui. Majority of these books are of the Shapes and Form Feng Shui. It is best to apply either " Traditional Feng Shui " or " 9 Star-Ki " Feng Shui. I would sincerely recommend you not to touch any resources associated with "Black Hat Tantaric Sect" in short: BTB or books associated with `Lin Yun'. 2. You can also browse thru the Free resources in this forum where, it involves real people and real situations or if u have the time to go thru some of the resources at Geomancy.net. Best Wishes on your pursuit of Feng Shui. Warmest Regards, Cecil

Warmest Regards, Cecil --- End --- Hi Cecil, I'm actually quite interested to invite U for a on-site feng shui audit for my 5RM HDB flat but one of the main worry is that as I've just shifted into my current flat for abt 2yrs, I'm not prepared to have a major renovation work done. Is it always possible to have alternate remedy for any problem found so as to avoid major changes to my current home setting? Thanks and regards, Alan

Dear Tammie, Please see below:- As mentioned in my forum message; priority should be given (where possible) for your son to spent time at a good sector; first. After this is `satifisfied' then, it is nice to have him face e.g. his education direction NE. Thus, facing NE is secondary or less important then spending good time at a good sector - Under the Eight House Theory. But if the sector is not as good; then, one can still try to face NE. But this is as mentioned - of secondary importance. It is recommended that one understands the aim or purpose of the theory that you are currently using. The aim of Eight House theory is: 1. Find out how suitable e.g. the house…

Dear Max, 1. Recently, there has been a few postings with regards to the `conflicting' information provided by e.g. Flying Star Feng Shui vs Eight House Theory. 2. I like to elaborate that; there is no conflicting information on either the Flying Star Feng Shui nor the Eight House Theory. 3. Here in lies what I have suggested a THREE-Step approach to find out: 3.1 What is the aim or purpose of each theory? If one knows the aim of each of this theory, one would then not be confused or feel that the information provided by e.g. Flying Star or Eight house CAN be contradictory. 3.2 What are the strengths and 3.3 What are the weakness of the theory or concept. 4. In a few rec…

Dear Tammie, Please see below:- It is not advisable to place a small wash basin facing the stove unless this sector is at the South compass direction. For example if your kitchen and stove is at the south compass direction or around 180 degrees direction; it is still acceptable to place the stove there. It is also still acceptable if the kitchen and stove is at the East or South-East - wood element sectors. If the kitchen and stove is at North, this is not advisable as it is said that the warmth cannot be retained. This is still acceptable. Where possible, it is more important that when one stands at the main entrance looking inwards, the windows facing directl…

Dear Peck Wun, 1. Once a person had already purchased a house, there is nothing much under the Eight House that can be used as a cure. 2. The consolation for you is that in terms of the house facing, and based on your information, it is considered a good house. Although the bedroom's may not be suitable. 3. As you have not mentioned who is the breadwinner; it would be best for the breadwinner to occupy the master bedroom. 4. Here, who ever contributes most or paying for the house should therefore, occupy the master bedroom. Frankly, in order for a family to get the best out of your house; the ideal situation is to do a full audit of the house and for the individual …

Dear Adrienne, 1. Under the Compass School of Feng Shui (both Eight House and Flying Star); there will be situations where two rooms may share one sector. 2. And this is quite common. Thus, if it is the Eight House theory (East/West group) of persons; if this is the bedroom, then, the bed can be situated at any of the two rooms especially if it is an auspicious sector where the bed can be placed in one or the other room. 3. Please note that this is the common experience as not all homes are aligned perfectly e.g. north--south or east--west alignment. And many times, one gua can be in two rooms. 4. Anyone using this site, for example must throw away " fixed template " asso…

Dear Manoj, I would strongly recommend a Three-step approach in understanding not just e.g. the Eight House Theory; the Flying Star Theory but any other concepts or theories. As an example of the Three-step approach we first find out what the Flying Star Theory is: 1. The purpose of the Flying Star chart is plot out the `Birth Chart' of a house. Here, we must know when the house was `born'. 1.1 We should also find out it's strength and weakness. 1.2 For example, one of it's strength is that not only it can plot out the birth chart of a house, it can help to diagnose and neutralise the house or problems associated with the house. As the common denominator is based on the …

Dear Rosemary, Please write privately to support@geomancy.net especially so that we can credit you with the Pillars of Destiny (new yearly report) to help you further understand what is in store for this year. In particular, do pay attention to the Luck period whether it is auspicious or not. If not, there is an advise on which element you can use. If you require further advise after you have generated the report, please let us know. As currently, given that you are a strong wood person; without reference to the current luck period - it is a difficult to give you a more exact advice. I am not sure if you have the Paid Flying Star report. If not, we would credit you with …

Dear Angelica, 1. The most common Chinese astrology or Zi Wei Dou Shu is generally based on one's Year of birth. 2. For compatibility purposes, if we use the Year of birth only; then it is quite general. In my opinion, one reading of one person may not be enough. Another element to take note is that of " auto-suggestion ". For example, if we found out that a "Horse person" or a person under the above sign is considered:- "A Dragon person is lively and full of vitality. They are determined and have lots of self-confidence. Dragons are strong fighters, follow own judgement and can take control and deal effectively with any problems. They are also admired but have few cl…

Dear Mina, 1. All major Chinese concepts uses the Chinese Lunar Calendar system. This is where, when we look at even Chinese astrology, it is based on Chinese Lunar new year. And the Chinese Lunar calendar use is wide-spread. Thus, when we need to determine a birth-date. This year, Chinese New Year starts on 12th February 2002. Thus, when we need to check the birth-date, any child born between 1st January 2002 to 11th January 2002 is considered born under the Year 2001 for purposes of Gua calculation. This site and many other book authors; therefore use the Lunar Calendar system. As far as I know; solar (Xia or Hsia) is used only in Pillars of Destiny as mentioned in deta…

Dear James, "The shielding effect" Under the Eight House Theory, it is good for the partners to sleep on the correct side of each other. For example, if one is a West Group (House) person e.g. best directions are North, South, West and North-West. And if the other partner has inauspicious directions, then, the person who is a West Group person should sleep closer to the compass directions Nort, South, West and North-West. While his/her partner sleeps further to this closer to East, SE, NE or SW. Thus, the person who has auspicious sectors can `shield' the other partner. Warmest Regards, Cecil
