Dear Linda, In my opinion, there is a very wide interpretation using numerology. There are various ways of looking at the numbers and `formulas'. Especially for the Cantonese (a dialect group of the Chinese) - especially from Hong Kong. (Origin - Canton). To the Cantonese, `four' means `say' or die. But from my personal experience, I have analysised houses and even is aware of quite alot of people with 444 etcs... For example, house numbers like #14-44 or even phone numbers like 244-4444. I found that these people are no less lucky then any other persons. If I were you, basing `luck' on just house number is incomplete. So long as one's house has good shapes and forms et…

Dear Anon, It is not necessarily bad to have the bed located at NE compass direction of the home. The following factors could be considered: 1. Under the Eight House Theory, if this is an auspicious sector for you. 2. A more advanced method is to check the sector of influence at the NE using Flying Star Feng Shui. Especially to confirm how Yin is the NE sector? If the sector is TOO YIN, then, it is best to neutralise this or increase it with more Yang. But, again this has to be analysed before, one can tell for sure. Based on `feel', if you can sleep properly and there are no other issues affecting the person, then it is still acceptable. Warmest Regards, Cecil

Dear Sudarshan, Based on a survey conducted, on this site, some of us seemed to be bothered by a mirror facing the bed. Whereas for some others, this is no issue. Firstly, you could check whether the mirror faces any part of the bed (not just the bedroom). If it does face the bed, do you feel restless or do not sleep well? If your answer is yes, then, it is best to try and cover the mirror. If so far, you are not affected by having the mirror face the bed.. ie. you can sleep peacefully, then, you should not be affected by it. There are several ways to `cover' the mirror: 1. A more costly approach is to change the door to a non-mirror door or 2. Buy those off the self opaq…

Dear Evelyn, It is best to look at the overall `Shapes and Form' of the room and the placement of your table and chair. Here, it is best to position the table and chair so that one can immediately see who is coming into the room (room door). Since, you have a half-height wall (for support), this is less of a `problem'. In my opinion, the placement that you have currently is quite acceptable. If you can, you could try to have the blinds or curtains. But this is not a real issue unless, there are poison arrow(s) aimed into the house thru this window. Warmest Regards, Cecil

Dear Eric, In my opinion, the Ba Gua symbol has been used on Toaist priest's clothings. Sometimes you find it on the front of their clothings and on occassions, it is on the back of their clothings. One may consider just tatooing the Yin-Yang symbol only i.e. which is found at the centre of the Ba Gua. Warmest Regards, Cecil

Dear Sudarshan, Usually, the belief is that the flow of Qi should be `slowed' down in a horizontal passage. Depending on the width of the passage-way, potted plants could be placed on either side of the passage. The size of plants / pots depends on the passage way. If the passage way is too narrow, then, small potted plants can be used. The pots can be alternate to each other and the number of potted plants depends on the length of the passage-way. Warmest Regards, Cecil

Dear Anon, 1. It is interesting to find out the survey results on the following question:- 2. Are you comfortable sleeping facing a TV set (mirror)? A short simple 3 questions survey. 3. The results of the above survey can be found under this URL:- http://www.geomancy.net/polls/ (The third last question on the above polls menu). 4. From what you had mentioned, this need not necessary be considered as `poison arrows'. Some of us may be `immune' to or are not affected by the `reflection'. While others may be affected by it. 5. Perhaps, you may like to ask yourself the following question:- "Am I able to sleep comfortably with it there (the closet mirror)?" If you either fee…

Dear Anon, 1. Can you confirm whether there are any `poison arrows' threatening your main entrance door. 2. I would normally not recommend using a Ba Gua without a proper reason for doing so. 3. Usually, it is common for the Ba Gua to be hung for the following reasons:- 3.1 To help ward off `sha qi' or poison arrows aimed at the main entrance. Best to stand at the main entrance looking out of the house. Look out for poison arrow(s) in the form of a pointed roof of a neighbour's home aimed at the main door or a lone lamp post which seemed to be `slicing' the main entrance or any windows of the room. 3.2 In the `East' it is usually used in conjuction with:- - Charms writte…

Dear John, 1. Thanks for sharing with us the information. I have short write-up which I written quite sometime back on this. The URL is at: http://www.geomancy.net/fs/pakua.htm Please see below (my comments):- In my opinion, it is best not to `verify' what was written at another site but rather; I feel that it would be better to bring out two differing camps - the `issues' relating to this subject. And that, in my opinion there are no right or wrong answers. Ultimately, each of us, should form our own opinion. Yes, there are two opposing views: 1. One view is that it can be used to either ward off evil or used against `Sha Qi' or poison arrows. Within this camp, some…

Dear Vijay, In my opinion, there are many other factors that can influence the sale of your house. Overall, the main factors are: 1. Location, location, location. 2. Selling price & market conditions. 3. Luck factor - however, there are said to be many forms of luck. Chinese divinity uses Pillars of Destiny (map out Heaven's luck) and try to increase this. 4. For Feng Shui, if there are salient or good points of the house under Feng Shui; one may try to `sell' this as value added - provided the buyer can be convinced about Feng Shui and good points about it. Sometimes, if the house is not so good, this can however backfire. 5. For a new good house, you can try out th…

Dear Nina, 1. In my opinion, using `fixed' Ba Gua template is not proper FS concepts. 2. However, I have taken the opportunity to marked out the `centre-point' of your house. If you are using Compass School Feng Shui methods such as: Eight House of Flying Star, you can take a compass reading (refer to house1a.bmp) and `aim' the compass towards the main entrance. The compass reading will determine the direction of your main entrance door. 3. For the second part of the `L' shaped layout, you can super-impose the map to this other half. Warmest Regards, Cecil P.S. Please download attached file.

Dear Sarah, Thanks for bring up an interesting point. Yes, usually the question that it (slanted roof) is considered `inauspicious' has been brought up. But not how much `damage' it may cause. In my opinion, an overhead beam would be more inauspicious then say a slanted roof. I have audited several homes with slanted roof ranging from it in the bedroom area to the study room. Some of the rooms have the slanted roof away from the bed or study. While some rooms have it away from the study (chair area where one sits). Based on my personal experience; I feel that: 1. it depends on whether how long one spents at the sector (with the slopping ceiling). 2. if for example, the be…

Dear Wasis, You can make use of the Singapore virtual street directory map at this URL: http://streetdirectory.com NOTE: The `cut and paste' of the URL below MAY not work. You should go to the site first and use the SEARCH feature to type in either the street e.g. Waterloo Street (Location A) and Smith Street (Location B) and zoom in or out of the map from there:- I did a search for Location A as:- (Waterloo Street area) http://streetdirectory.com/map.cgi?sizex=400&sizey=400&ismap=1&x=30186.1752& y=31479.5516&level=7?294,292 And Location B:- (Peoples Park) http://streetdirectory.com/map.cgi?sizex=400&sizey=400&ismap=1&x=29176&y=294 33…

Dear Jeanette, 1. It is good to understand that, as a guide, a missing corner should be one where there is a 33.3 percent missing `area' in a specific sector. Here, the home is sub-divided in 9 equal divisions or a 3 x 3 grid. 2. It is good to examine, whether it is really a missing corner or a protrusion. As different `treatment'/intrepretation is used. 3. If there is a missing corner in the home and the house is a: 3.1 Landed property If it is a landed property, an outline of the `missing area' or boundary can be created outside the house. A top-view will then show that the missing area has been outlined by a boundary. The boundary can be shrubs, fencing or layout on …

Dear Sonia, I took quite sometime to reply to your mail because, with the limited information, that you have provided below; it is difficult to `pin-point' your problems. An `L' shaped house need not be all too bad. In fact, if one is using Feng Shui, there are many types of analysis. What you have mentioned is focused only on a specific sector and in the interior of the house. Please see below:- If you have a bathroom door between your bed, one can place a side table and a table lamp on top of it. Under Feng Shui, it symbolises a `partition' between the two. If you feel uncomfortable with the two mirrors facing each other, a `cheap' alterative is to place a opague fi…

Dear Ali, Under one of my websites http://www.lovesigns.net - In the above site, you can find that a Rooster is characterised as:- Overview of a Rooster:- Roosters have keen sense of observation and likes to be noticed and flattered. It is not easy to fool a Rooster and they make good trouble shooters. They are conscious of their appearance and what they wear. What's good? Funny, witty, brave, enthusiastic, efficient and honest. A Rooster person is very intelligent, a good thinker and has an excellent memory, alert and organised. They are intelligent, entertaining and strong willed but generous to friends. Roosters are clever at finance, confident and an outstanding …

Dear Alice, A windchime can be used without an attached crystal. A windchime can be used especially if it is used against a bad earth element i.e. #5 or bad earth / bad yellow. A windchime (especially if it metallic) can help to reduce the impact of the #5. If the porch falls under the influence of #5, then it can be used there. Warmest Regards, Cecil

Dear Anon, 1. In general, it is best to determine which location is the kitchen in? 1.1 If the kitchen is located at the South (compass direction); then overall, a stove/cooker is able to face a water position. The consideration here is that South = Fire element and a stove/cooker can face a water position (to cool down the `south' / fire sector). 1.2 But if the kitchen is at the North (compass direction): then it is advisable as the Feng Shui book suggest; not to let the stove/cooker face the water position. Here, since North = water (the fire of the stove/cooker can easily be `extinguished'. For other sectors, in my opinion, if there is not much choice, Para 1.1 can st…
