Dear Sandy, I am not sure if you have any contraints i.e. rented room where you may not have sufficient storage area. In my opinion, it is always best to see if you can explore any possibility of stacking the boxes e.g. in a cupboard or ar a corner rather than placing it below your bed. Warmest Regards, Cecil

Dear Rosie, Perhaps you can generate a Free Flying Star report. Most probably, there is an influence of sickness star #2 or even #5 within the sector of your son's bedroom. A metal cure depending on the level of imbalance at the sector could be used if the above analysis is correct. Warmest Regards, Cecil

Dear Evelyn, With the little information provided, it is difficult for me to give you proper advise. Usually, if one practises or applies sector Feng Shui; may have to use personal feelings i.e. not because; of `Feng Shui' related reasons but simply because one `fell in love' with an object of decoration e.g. metal windchime and wants to place it. Here, one may have to use personal feelings to see where it can be placed in the home. Warmest Regards, Cecil

Dear Michelle, In my opinion, it is always (first choice) to place the bed based on good Shapes and Form Feng Shui. 1. Whenever one can, the bed should be on the opposite wall of the bedroom door. 2. If possible, it should lean against a wall. 3. If there are windows on the side of the bed; one should preferably leave a gap (or walking area) between the bed and the window. I am not too clear, about the position of the closet door you mentioned below. But you can `treat' it as a wardrope. Where there should be a gap (walking / movement) area between this location. Warmest Regards, Cecil

Dear Barbara, I believe many of us are in the same situation as yours "exactly opposites". What is more important is to: 1. Understand the purpose / objective of each concept and what is can or cannot do. For example, under the Eight House Theory:- 1.1. It can be used in general to find out how suitable a house is to the "breadwinner." 1.2. Other than this, there is not much one can do; if e.g. North = death or health. If the bed is located here; perhaps, you can sleep closer to the North while your husband sleeps further away from the North direction. (He can be `shielded' by you). 2. The depth of application of Traditional Feng Shui depends on your level of participat…

Dear Anon, Please accept my condolences. I believe many of us share your grief and understand what you are going thru. Life has to basically go on in his memory. Hope that you can continue to enrich your life and make him proud. Life is also a yo-yo and there are ups and downs. Certain aspects of Feng Shui can help to reduce deaths due to `accidents/disasters' but if it due to the process of old age, all of us are not immune to it. I am really short for words at this moment but..Do take care of your health! Warmest Regards, Cecil

Dear Jessia, Under the Eight House theory, there is not much one can do on this matter. Whenever, one spents time at.. However, it is best to take the view that the position of the table / chair should try to conform to Shapes and Form Feng Shui. And avoid any poison arrows `aimed' at it or sitting under a beam. Other considerations depending on your level of `application of' Feng Shui may include checking the sector for any imbalances using Flying Star and correcting it if any. This depends on whether you just want to use the basic " Eight house " or Shapes and Forms. Warmest Regards, Cecil

Dear Thanh, 1. Based on the Compass School method of Feng Shui, it is best to avoid (especially the toilet bowl - sewerage pipes) located exactly at `defined positions'. 2. Under Eight House theory: it is best not to have the toilet bowl at true compass directions i.e. North 0 degrees, NE 45 degrees, East 90 degrees, SE 135 degrees etc.. 3. The rationale here is that should one of these sectors is a good sector, this may not be auspicious. 4. If we go `deeper' using the Flying Star analysis; then; it is best to avoid having it at 15 degree intervals e.g. 0 degrees, 15 degrees, 30 degrees, 45 degrees etc... 5. I personally feel that using a small round mirror (may not be e…

Dear Astrid, Thank you for your sketch. I have a better picture now. 1. It is preferred to `close' the toilet door when not in use. 2. From the layout plan, it seems that a partition cannot be errected as it may make the passage narrow. 3. For a mirror, one may have to becareful - as we did not look at the sector; and if under Flying Star, it is an inauspicious sector; one may inadvertently bounce back twice the bad luck. Thus, if you want to place a mirror, here, you can still do so; but you may have to monitor for the next three months.. on this. Warmest Regards, Cecil A warm welcome to the forum. Just moved into apartment in Munich/Germany, where the main door face…

Dear Users, 1. For those who are new to Feng Shui, Cate Bramble of ( www.qi-whiz.com ) is a strong advocate denouncing *BTB* or Black Hat Tantric Sect. 2. If you have the time, do visit her website where she has some interesting articles and she even expose `fake / bogus ' FS sites. 3. Please always keep an open mind about `Feng Shui' and what it can or cannot do. And also to becareful of new wave " Fast Food " Feng Shui. Warmest Regards, Cecil

Dear Angelina, For a 3 / 2 base 6:- Although there is a base 6 metal element. After it exhausts #3, it will become too weak to exhaust #2. Yes, you can add metal or a wind chime here. Do note that it would be `disasterous' to use a wind chime if it happens to be in the following combination:- with 2 / 3 base 6 For such a combination, quietness or stillness is required as this combination can result in " severe " quarrels even between family members and if left uncured may result in lawsuits even within family members. This combination is particulary worse if it is in the bedroom area. It is why, if in doubt i.e. for those who try to apply cures - use 6 coins instead. Be…

Dear Anon, 1. In my opinion, it is difficult to redress a sloping ceiling unless one physically remodel it to a flat roof or use a four poster bed with cloth or lace hanging on the top of the 4 poster support. 2. Usually, a full FS audit would be used to check on the house and there are certain interpretations of the mountain/water star combinations which in some cases reflect "romance" or show an interpretation of romance. Some houses when Feng Shuied may reveal good romance while others bad. Some houses do not reflect any combinations of romance sector. Therefore, Flying Star may or may not reflect these. 3. I therefore, cannot say for sure if the house has any effect. …

Dear Anon, I have thought about this issue many times and I feel that it is quite `unethical' to do so... even when I was tempted to do so. Previously, although I had analysed several dates... "fortunately ' or unfortunately", the date of birth did not materialise as the birth was natural. I would at this point in time not make such analysis available. Hope you understand. Overall, for general info, for such an analysis; it would usually involve:- 1. analysing especially the parent's Ba Zi. 2. The child's ba zi. Sorry, I am not able to help you in this area. I do not want to be seemed to play / temper with one's destiny. Warmest Regards, Cecil

Dear Ann, Thank you for bringing up the question of crystals. 1. It is thought that like mirrors, crystals may be considered as bending light or `manipulating' lighting. This is where, some advise include: If there is a stair-case landing, some FS practitioners may advise one to place a mirror at this landing. In the hope that `Qi' can flow more smoothly. 2. Unlike, `water qi' there is currently no scientific proof that light is effective. For watercourses, reference can be made to " Dangers of underground water " ref: http://www.geomancy.net/fs/under.htm Here, some scientists have found that too much negative ions in water e.g. the negative ions created by waterfalls. I…

Dear Elena, Yes, this is acceptable: Either: 1. Cut the aluminum foils into 6 circular discs each without the red paper or 2. Cut the aluminum foils into 6 stars i.e. to `5 pointed star' without the red paper. This option is less advisable as the pointed star is considered `sha qi' to some practitioners. But both are a `cheap' alternative to the 6 i-ching coins. Warmest Regards, Cecil

Dear Thanh, I personally feel that it would be a good idea on your part to include a small water fountain in your facial room. This is because this is a place of business and I personally find the `soothing sound' of water flowing...more for relaxing and rest.. Unlike in a bedroom where it should not be there. Warmest Regards, Cecil

Hanging Window Chrystals

Dear Sara, 1. In my opinion, crystals is not prominently used in authentic Feng Shui but more as `beliefs'. 2. Although many FS cures do not use crystals (due to the nature that it may enhance earth elements); there are quite a sizable number of sales of crystals. The most saleable items (as an alternative to jade bracelets) are `crystal' beaded bracelets. Frankly it is much harder to find reference on locations where to or best place to hang these. In many of my audits of `Chinese' homes, I do see owners placing them on windows. I would normally term these as `decorations'. From my obervation and understanding; many FS practitioners would term crystal(s) as belonging to…

Dear Theresa, It would be good if you can provide a `sketch' and send as an attachment to this forum for me to take a look at it. As mentioned, it would be best to provide a sketch (in proportion) as it is difficult for me to comment on the above. Apologies.. I am not too clear on this. Determining the frontage of the house is important here. Some houses, may have the frontage facing the `back' of the house. Usually, if this is the back of the house, it is best to have a wall or fence (bushes) to protect the back of the home. It would be good to have the house protected on each side and particularly advantages if it can be like a horseshoe effect. Warmest…

Dear Anon, I understand your situation. Many of us, do not have as you mentioned a single matching positive direction. What we should instead understand further about the Eight House Theory on: 1.1 It's purpose 1.2 When sleeping one partner can sleep further away from the intangible force. In Feng Shui, if we consider the Five elements concept, we can find a binding element for both partners and apply it especially in the bedroom and living room. Regards, Cecil

Dear MD, Based on your unit, you should find the centrepoint of the unit. And from this centrepoint (standing at the centrepoint) use a compass to `aim' at the main entrance. Please follow the method used here:- http://www.geomancy.net/fs/cecilcompass.htm The above should help you to properly determine whether it is Chen or Kan. Warmest Regards, Cecil P.S. for the mechanics of how to? you can visit this url: http://www.geomancy

Dear Diane, Ideally, (in my opinion) the centre-point of the home should have clear space. However, in your case, as you had mentioned, the stairs at at the centre and closet. For this you may have not much you can do to redress this situation as it is physically there. It is too premature to say what is causing your fiancial problems at this moment. You should (frist) try to check for `threats' towards the home i.e. stand at the main entrance door/window to look for `poision arrows' that may be aimed towards the home. Other considerations are the Shapes and Form of the overal house (external, internal environment check). Or to use Compass School techniques. Warmest Regar…

Dear Anon, In my opinion, if one cannot position the bed otherwise; the position is still acceptable even if behind the solid wall is a restroom. Especially if the opposite wall / adjoining wall does not have the toilet bowl or it's piping. If I gather what u mentioned correctly, the wall behind your daughter's bed is the sink. Alternatively, place the bed against another solid wall (if possible). If you have a sketch of the layout, perhaps you can upload it here (under an attachment) so that I can take a look at it. Warmest Regards, Cecil
