Dear Anon, When planting plants or trees avoid having the tree trunk slicing into the house. If so, it may become a threat. In all my audit rounds, if the bedrooms are at the west and affected by direct sunlight, the interior layout especially the position of the bed and even the study table should be carefully looked at both from Feng Shui and commonsense approach. Locally, it can be quite hot especially if the bedroom is in direct contact of the sun eg. west. And it is the brickwall, one can even (if one places one's hand) next to this wall, feel the heat as much as 3 or more hours after sunset. Thus, if one were to place a bed parallel to the wall, the person sleeping …

Dear Anthony, Happy New Year! Please see below:- 1. This is a possibility but frankly, no Feng Shui practitioner in modern times can say for sure. 2. The rationale is because this occurs only every 20 years. And many FS practitioners has not studied this change so closely nor do they have a sizeable amount of people who do so. 3. Good Feng Shui is always practised on the premise that: if it works for MOST of us, it can usually work for another person. 4. But, previously, such information cannot be collected en-mass for detailed analysis. For each practitioner, there can be no cases of this nature (since this is a novel idea). 5. Even if they have one case to study, i…

Dear Gek Soo, There are two ways of looking at fire positions: 1. The stove can be considered as a fire protection. Not so much of activating it but rather to see, if it is at a favourable location. 2. Under Flying Star Feng Shui, often, the star numbers at a specific location has to be looked at. And, if there are imbalance in a sector, we can in this way `activate' a "fire element". For example: Period 7 South-East 2 (135 degrees house) East sector has:- mountain star #6 water star #4 base star = 5 Here, Metal 6 destorys wood, wood element is destroyed or weakened by metal. Wood star 4 is inauspicious. However, meal is not sufficient. Here, a FS practitioner may recomen…

Dear Tony, Usually, in most instances, each home or sector can be influenced by `seasonal' Feng Shui. Here, most probably, the wrong set of `stars' either congregate at your bedroom or a combination of some bad stars are around. Most likely this is the case. And depending on the combination of stars, it may be the monthly or yearly star combinations. Or alternatively, it has been a known fact that watercoures or even water close-by could emit minute traces of e.g. positive ions. Which is not beneficial to the body. We call this `invisible' vapours. While negative ions are beneficial, positive ions, similar to this situation in the long term may not be ideal:- Reference: …

Dear Anon, Based on past precedence (experience); the only areas that one can apply FS to a small studio apartment is:- 1. Commonsense approach Minimize clutter. This may be hardest but, it does make commonsense:) 2. Yin and Yang concept Look at your life-style: Are you the type that uses your bedroom for sleep or work/study cum sleep? If you make your room solely more for sleep (rest), than create a more cozy home. If you often do your work at home, than, make sure that there is a specific location, where you have your study/work location. Have everything placed neatly for this activity close-by. Often, the ideal choice is to place this study/work location, close to a -…

Dear Anon, Please see below:- water Therefore, under Period 8: #5 - misfortune, sickness - bad Yellow earth #2 - sickness - bad earth #3 - human related issues bad wood All three are literally a wolf in sheeps clothing. Or the saying goes : A leopard never changes it's skin - bad in most periods other than in their dominant period. For example under Period 3, #3 turns good - only. Under Period 8: #7 - reverts to it's robbery / violence state #4 - changes to "Mixed-blessing". Sometimes, on the good side. Sometimes can be on the dark side. Warmest Regards, Cecil

Dear Hung, If one applies the Compass School of Feng Shui: Eight House (Ba zai) and/or Flying Star Feng Shui the basis of this School has to do with the magnetic compass and not geographical compass. Thus, for any home / office /building /site investigated via the Compass School of Feng Shui, a magnetic compass has to be used to determine the magnetic north and other cardinal points etc... For the purpose of evaluating any site / building or interior, one has to determine the "center-of-gravity" or the centrepoint of say the layout plan of the interior.

1. Ideally, the toilet (if possible) should try not to be at the "center" of the home. Especially if it is the toilet bowl. However, the good news, is that frankly in Singapore, nearly 50 percent of all apartments does have the toilet "close to or in the centre" of the home. This is considered as a "leak". Majority of the time, a regular Feng Shui audit, can help to boost other areas and/or reduce the effect. 2. Main door to many Feng Shui practitioners is like the "mouth" of the home. Thus it is considered a crucial part. Imagine, a person opening his mouth and a "knife" or "fork" or "scissors" poking into it. There are two concepts, here:- 2.1 Commonsense approach If…

Dear Yum Chinn, 6. The main idea here is to compare this to an examination. 6.1 Many of us have taken exams where we had to answer 4 required questions. 6.2 The goal is to get as many marks as possible. If there are 4 compulsory questions and 100 marks in total, each question is worth 25 marks. 6.3 In exams, we should not only answer 3 questions. If the exam lasts 2 hours, we should spend 30 minutes on each question. 6.4 Teachers often say that if we only answer three questions and skip the fourth, we might fail. But if we try the fourth question, we can still earn some marks. 7. So, judging a home as “do…

Dear Miss Quiss, This year, it is advisable not to renovate at South South East or 150 degrees (Tai Su) and the location in conflict i.e. East ... If you are doing renovation at the area, it is best to avoid, being around when the work is carried out at the East. The above is just consideration. Warmest Regards, Cecil

Dear Mary, Frankly, there is no major issue in the installation of finials other than that it / or a wall be built so high that it looks more like a prison. Overall, if your aim is for privacy, the common overlapping wooden / often maintenance free wooden fence is acceptable either in wood tone colours or white. Warmest Regards, Cecil

Dear Chia Doreen, Chia Doreen wrote: Recently I bought a resale flat and its master bedroom has a custom made dressing table with big mirror. I cannot remove this mirror. It's about 45 degrees facingfrom the side of the headboard (above headboard are windows). Since you cannot remove the mirror, then there is very little options that can be suggested even if the mirror is inauspicious. However, based on your diagram. I think it should still be ok. At least it is not located where there is a window directly opposite the mirror which would be worst. The other good thing I can see is at least by having the custom-made dressing table at a 45 degree angle, it at least does…

Dear Phil, It is quite common to have staircase(s) close to the centre of the house. So far, if one read thru the messages under this forum, there is no direct issue of a staircase at the middle of the house. Usually, if there is a problem, it is due to multiple issues. For a staircase, however, it is preferred that the steps are covered e.g. no opening or hollow between each steps. A mirror can also be used at the staircase landing to direct flow of Qi. Warmest Regards, Cecil

Dear Nguyen, 1. Usually, there is no issue if this drain is covered and does not lead directly into any of the bedrooms or pass thru beneath bedrooms. 2. There are many other considerations - when purchasing a home. 3. Ideally, if you can, try to avoid it if the sewer is pretty obvious and if stench or smell comes out of it. Warmest Regards, Cecil

Dear Janice, Please see below:- Yes, this is often good enough to fly to the next period. But we need to understand that at such an early stage i.e. where Period 7 has just slowly wane-down and Period 8 is still "climbing", it may still take at least up to 2005 to see an effect of such a change. Yes, your current strategy is considered sound, since I believe, this is what most practitioners would advise their clients to do (less the idea of having to do a major renovation). Warmest Regards, Cecil

Hi Anon, Generally, for Eight House concept, you have to apply them as follows especially for two person with completely oppose charts:- 1. Usually you try to ensure that the breadwinner (the head of the house), has a suitable house facing direction. 2. The spouse should next be given a better direction given that the breadwinner now has a better house suitability. 3. The bed position should still be placed based on the shapes and form placement ie the bed should be placed such that you can see the main door and window. This should be ideal position. 4. Only when the above conditions are met, then you can fine tune the sleeping position if possible. Sometimes this is…

Dear Allan, In Ba Zi or Pillars of Destiny, if you are using the Luck Pillars in our report, you can find out each year whether it is auspicious or inauspicious (in addition to generally, the 10 year luck period). From my personal observation, each year differs in the luck period. Warmest Regards, Cecil
