Dear Sonet, 1. In my opinion, there is a general concensus amongst many well known FS practitioners that the Southern Hemisphere `debate' is not an issue in Feng Shui. 2. This is because, many of the theories deal with the foundamental in Feng Shui such as:- Yin and Yang concept; The Five Elements Concept; Shapes and Form Feng Shui. 3. These three areas totally do not depend on the `compass school' of Feng Shui. 4. The only area that Shapes and Form School has is simply the use of pictorial to describe each directions with e.g. an animal sign. Such as East (Green Dragon) or West (White Tiger). All these if one understands properly is simply the use of pictures or illustr…

I have a bathroom in the Southwest Location. What kind of cure should I put here? I've heard you can't put flowers in the bathroom. What kind of paint color should I paint it? Are crystals okay? Thanks.

Hello Master, I’m considering a southwest-facing flat. In front there is a tall building with a thin vertical structure that rises above the rooftop into a triangular point. The structure is flat and thin, with its broad side facing my flat (see photo). It is a little to the side — about two units away — so I can see it from the main door, but it is not directly perpendicular. The rooftop of that building is about the same height as my unit’s floor, while the vertical structure extends taller than my flat. May I ask if this is considered good or bad feng shui? Thanks!

These are some considerations: 1. In the past, careers were straight-forward. For example, a butcher is a butcher, a merchant is a merchant etc... 2. Nowadays, with both multi-skilling and management studies like strategic planning; Professor Porter's Five Forces to evaluate an industry and core-skills; things have become complicated. 3. In addition, it is often "complicated" by education and education system. 4. For example, in Singapore; our education system in the past, in my opinion is still more of reguritation of facts or reproducing them. And not very good for innovation. 5. And the majority would rely on their education certificate: for example, an accountant woul…

Dear Cheui May, In my opinion, as this is not a permanent water feature, this type of house can still be considered in your house hunting. Warmest Regards, Cecil

Dear Sophie, To be honest, even in the "east", Far East, when we set to do space clearing, we simply go ahead to clean-up the home. - The quick and easy method! I did not know that in the "west", for some, things sound so ..so.. complicated! Wow! In my opinion, more like hocus-pocus to me! Therefore, the quickest easy method is "JUST DO IT!" Cheers! Warmest Regards, Cecil sophie corcoran wrote: hi there how do i space clear and clense my small flat, ive read someroutines that r very precise and long including bells, candles, chanting, smudge sticks etc!i just want a quick, easy method! sophie corcoran wrote: i have nag champa incense!! is this enough??

Dear Janna, The key success factor here is to make sure that one is very well versed in the Five elements concept. And also use another tool of Flying Star Feng Shui: the Eighty-One combinations interpretations. Warmest Regards, Cecil

Dear Janna, 1. I understand that you are from Moscow, Russia. 2. If one notice carefully, each country has it's distintive cluster of developments. 3. For example, in Singapore and Hong Kong, many Feng Shui practitioners specialise in high rise buildings: commercial, industrial and apartments. 4. For example, in Singapore, approximately 85 percent of the entire population of 4 million people in Singapore live in government subsidised housing. This statutory board is called Housing and Development Board or HDB for short. 5. Therefore, many local practitioners see more (assessment of high rise buildings than say landed property). 6. Similarly, in Taiwan and even in Malaysi…

Hi Anon, Feng Shui is no miracle cure for all problems. Feng Shui cannot control how much a person wishes to spend or save, this is more of a human factor. You should probably try to say get your husband to do like a financial planning, so that he can see how much he earns and how much he spends. This way he will then realise that he might be spending unnecessarily and start to save more. No amount of feng shui can help you change it. Feng Shui can help you improve the amount of potential wealth, happiness and health but it cannot help you on controlling your wealth. For questions on Health, there may be two possibilities:- 1. From Ba Zi, it seems that you though yo…

Dear Anon, Yes, very often it is very sad to learn that one has to borrow money to do it up for the sake of " Feng Shui ". Nowadays, Feng Shui in it's name sake has come to a very sad state of affairs. Often, these people, simply don't care about others; other than to make a quick buck. Nowadays, majority of FS practitioners are only concerned within the 4 walls of a house or apartment. In fact, Feng Shui is not just about the interior, alone. For example, if the exterior form is not favourable, no amount of enhancement within the house can do wonders. 1. If our house / apartment is like a mini car; no matter how, it cannot seat say 6 adults. If so, we have to buy an MPV…

Dear Anon, If you are staying above ground i.e. > 3nd storey or even 2nd storey, there is little impact on you from the garden/garden fence. Since the fence is normally not enclosed or closed-up, the ventilation into the ground is still acceptable. Warmest Regards, Cecil

Dear Rochelle, 1. For info, it would normally be very inauspicous to see a spiral staircase, especially if one is standing at the main entrance facing inwards of the home. I hope that this is not your case. 2. Usually to `tame' the spiral staircase; two methods are used:- 2.1. Placement of plants around the staircase (ground level) especially the side facing outwards. For example if the spiral staircase is close to a wall, two potted plants can be placed on the `other side' to conceal part of the steps leading out of the staircase. 2.2. The placement of forks. Here, one can use two metal forks (those common fork and spoon) type of fork and aim it towards each side of the …

Dear Rochelle, In a very recent message in this forum under this same conference, a user has asked for advise on this issue. If your apartment is small, there is usually a constraint in correcting a spiral staircase. If you have a sketch, I would be happy to take a look at it. Warmest Regards, Cecil

1. Feng Shui is about location, location and location. 2. The above takes prime importance, first priority over the interior layout of the home. 3. Have come across several homes like yours with such staircases at the middle of the home. From landed property to penthouses in a condominium. 4. So far as Par 1 is favourable i.e. have good shapes and forms; frankly, one can still live with this problem! 5. Thus it is not the "end of the world" for you! If it is possible to screen the stairs from the main door; (it is one consideration). 6. Therefore, I believe, that your home can sustain, this. (Provided, there are no other major multiple "wealth leaks" in a home.) War…

1. If you have a sketch, it would be better! 2. Overall, so long as the spiral staircase is not facing the main entrance door directly, this is a plus point. 3. Is the steps for the spiral staircase fully covered or it is one "plank" onto another "plank" with open spaces in-between.

Frankly, it is beyond this forum as there is very limited information to go on. It may be a coincidence and/or a contributing factor. In general, a spiral staircase is always not the best choice in a home: as if you have check pastmessages; somehow, it is not "friendly" to the flow of qi. In order to reduce the bad effects (if any) The Concept of Maximizing Marksis always a sound way of trying to reduce bad qi and to try to improve the "marks" for a home.

Hey there. My name is Runa, and I know a little bit about western astrology. At a young age I was very spiritual, very close to nature, mixing herbs, plants, using them to create art and symbols. I was at peace, I was mostly a loner, and it feels like I am constantly living in different planes. I have intense imaginations. I can live in a world I create. Vivid details. Many ongoing stories in many timelines. To not kill myself.. I had to pretend to be someone else. Now I don't know what my purpose is. In western astrology, I have:Moon and chiron in 12h (h of collective unconcious and karma) in Leo [fire] Mercury and mars in 9h (h of philosophy, truth) in aries [fire] Sun …

Dear Julie, 1. It is good to first use the Eight House Theory to look at the house in relation to the breadwinner's suitability to the house e.g. what is the intangible force at the main entrance door or any other alternative main doors. Next look at the intangible force at the main entrance door. 2. Under the Shapes and Form School, since you house has four levels, where best particularly the toilets should not be above such areas as the bedroom, kitchen (especially the cooking stove), living room or above the main entrance door. 3. The optional method is to use the Flying Star Theory (which can be applied to all four floors) to check out auspicious and inauspcious secto…

1. Under the Eight House (East/West Group) the best that can be done, here is:- http://wiki.geomancy.net/wiki/Master_Bedroom:_Which_side_must_I_sleep_on 2. Otherwise, leave it. As under Eight House concept, there is very limited "cure" for this concept. A holistic approach to Feng Shui is different, it looks into this concept, plus Flying Star, plus Shapes and Forms of the bedroom.

Dear Anon, Anonymous wrote: My sons' bedroom falls in the spooky area of the house. How to counter this problem? Should I paint the bedroom with their suitable bright color? Can they still sleep in this room even though it is not their ideal place to sleep? My eldest son's ideal placeshould beour master bedroom while youngest is my husband's ideal study room. Hope to hear from you soon, thanks. You cannot correct a suitablity problem. A suitability sector is for you to assess whether it is good for a person to make use of that room or not. So you can only opt to use or not to use it if it is really bad. Spook and Irritation are not as bad as death or disaster sector. …

Dear Simon, Feng Shui is about the Earth luck. Human interations and human relationships are about Human (Man) Luck. In my opinion, for a stadium, if it based on Feng Shui, this will have to do with:- 1. Yin and Yang concept Sufficient lighting e.g. flood lights to the field area without too much glare to the players / participants. 2. Congregation/ Dispersion of crowd Even for the spectators, many stadiums often have gates spaced out e.g. North, NE, East, SE etc... This has more to do with commonsense than Feng Shui i.e. human traffic movement/dispersement 3. Location Again, this is commonsense approach e.g. location should not be too windy, should have good transport fa…

Dear Anon, To be truly honest, a sports center would need to serve a need for: 1. Easy entry and exits 2. if possible shelter (moveable roofs) to keep rain or harsh sunlight 3. Since there are lots of steps in a stadium, you could follow this guideline on the number of steps:- Introduction: 1. In Feng Shui, there are two traditional methods of determining the number of steps. 2. The first method is a 3 number combination. Where the first two steps are Auspicious but the last step is inauspicious. METHOD 1 - THE THREE-STEP CYCLE ======== 3. Thus under the `Three-steps formula' step No. 1 (Auspicious), Step No. 2 (Inauspicious) while Step No. 3 is considered inauspic…
