Dear Lee Nah, Please see below:- Ideally, the stove should face inwards of the home i.e. the main entrance. Therefore, preferably, the knobs should also face inwards or upwards (neutral position). You have to determine where is the location of the kitchen. If the kitchen is at the North (compass direction), then it would be best for the kitchen to have a door. As North represents water, the kitchen should have sufficient warmth. But if the kitchen is at the South, (fire element) it is not necessary to have a door at this location. In addition, it is still ok for other directions (not to have a door). As mentioned above, for a North (compass direction/point) i.e. …

I have to agree that there is a huge amount of information and putting it all together is a bit overwhelming for a newbee like me... but, I'm not going to let that put me off! P.S. Don't worry about your house, I just realized that I'm bloody well calling the dead to my house with my wind chimes!!!! Cheers!

Dear Spring, 1. The next best alternative is to ensure that the tree is properly trimmed since you are unable to cut it down. 2. Trimming the tree would help to reduce the `floor area' of the tree `foot print'. By doing so, will ensure that that sector is no longer too yin. 3. Trees are actually Yang. But because of the shadow that it casts below, it can create a too yin environment especially at the frontage of the home. 4. I am not sure what the three symbols are. Usually, the most common of the three symbols are the Fu (Prosperity) Lu (Luck) Shou (Longevity) symbols. 5. You can view the following pictures under this URL to see if they are similar to your three symbols:…

Dear Anon, I am afraid, in general, Traditional Feng Shui does not look at "wealth corner(s)". Usually, when we talk about "wealth corner", it would imply something that is `fixed' such as based on fixed template. This is considered too general to be of any use for anyone. Therefore, hope u can understand that such things are not discussed here as they are not based on traditional FS. More likely a `gimmick'. Warmest Regards, Cecil

Dear Anon, 1. There is free report under www.geomancy-online.com where you can generate a free Comparision report which will provide you information of the `binding' element for both spouses. 2. For example, after the analysis, you get to know which element helps to bind a couple. Here, in the bedroom, one can e.g. paint the room/wall the colour to suits both parties. 3. In traditional FS, element strength is crucial in providing the correct binding element i.e. weak-weak; weak-strong; strong-strong; such combinations give different results. Warmest Regards, Cecil

Dear Wasis, Further to what I mentioned below: 1. What I mentioned refers more towards visit / condolence for a `natural' death such as cancer, heart attact, old age etc... (Accidents e.g. car accidents included) 2. For death due to suicide, murder etc... For suicide, most of the cases, in my country the police would handcuff the dead as he/she had committed a crime. For example, if it looks like a clear case of suicide e.g. jumping down a high storey. Some Chinese belief, that after visiting such cases, they would normally, prior to this buy flowers e.g. lily and some lime. When they bathe themselves, they would pour the fiower and lime over their heads. After bathing, …

Dear Anon, 1. It is true that if one asks Traditional Feng Shui practitioners, many if not all would recommend that doors open inwards. 2. Here, it has to do more with symbolism. 3. For example, a door that opens inwards, is symbolic and looks like a gesture of "welcoming". 4. As you had mentioned, since this is more a `need' or regulation of a location or country, we may need to be `realstic":- 4.1 In terms of Feng Shui, a door open outwards can be considered of "secondary importance " in Feng Shui. Here, we open hear the following words echoed (consciously or unconsciously) to:- " PROTECT, PROTECT AND PROTECT ". 5. Thus, more importantly, we need to PROTECT our MAIN En…

Hi everyone, Any body interested in chinese symbolism should try the book called "Feng Shui Dos & Taboos by author Angi Ma Wong. The best thing I liked about this book was that author has published a disclaimer on the first page of the book saying that all recommendations are made without guarantee on the part of the author. Basically author is merely presenting the information without any claims like other BTB authors who guarantee solution for every problem and pray on emotions of innocent public.

Dear Dianne, 1. In my opinion, currently the web is relatively new and one can say that " Feng Shui site design " has never been proven to work or if one claims that a site is based on Feng Shui, it could either be a modern invention. 2. However, as many (many) FS principles or concepts are based on commonsense approach, one can safely use easy to navigate menus etc... 3. The Ba Gua symbol 4. Several FS practitioners and even authors may feel that the Ba Gua symbol especially the First Heaven Sequence (ref: http://www.geomancy.net/fs/pakua.htm ) 5. This symbol should not be used on the pages as displaying it is like display on the person surfing the page. 6. In the pas…

Dear Denise, This url shows how two flutes are `tradtionally' hung to neutralise a beam:- http://www.geomancy.net/mypictures/cgi-bin/imagesearch.cgi?img=0&search=flute&cat=all&x=9&y=7 In your case, for a long hall, usually, potted plants along sections of the hall are used instead to `break' the `long' hall rather than the use of flutes. Warmest Regards, Cecil

Dear Silvia, I understand your problem. It is currently difficult to have FS onsite consultation in Italy other than to source for the nearest neighours such the UK. At the moment, I believe there is no other choice but to use offsite consultation services. If you a sketch of how your `L shaped' house and need to find the centrepoint... feel free to upload to this forum i.e. The conference for attaching layout. For your information, we are currently collaborating on an the Italian version of GEOMANCY.NET run by reputable professionals who is also one of my students. More details in the future.. Warmest Regards, Cecil

Dear Anon, 1. Is it possible to draw a sketch using any drawing program or scanned image of the relative size and position of this `poison' arrow in relation to the door. 2.Is the cement block corner pointed towards the door or `parallel' to it. 3. When you mentioned that your toilet is at the SW corner: 3.1 Is it sharing an external wall of the house. 3.2 Is it at the True compass degree SW i.e. 184 Degrees direction. Usually, I believe, in your case, the toilet is not (1) at the centre of the house (2) What made you `concerned' about the toilet at SW i.e. is next to your masterbedroom i.e. bed against it? ...

Dear Anon, 1.Overall, one has to check to see where is the `frontage' of the house. In most homes it is usually where the `living' room faces a direction. As it is difficult to say that one model fits all, if say the `frontage' of your house is facing the direction i.e. at the `back patio room' then a water position may still be acceptable. 2. In Traditional Feng Shui, we usually look at two other factors: 2.1 The breadwinners true element and strength. For example, if one is a weak fire and strong water person, it is best to avoid having a water position in the home. For a weak fire person, the addition of a water element may `extinguish' one's `fire'. While too much wat…

Hi everyone, Any body looking for detailed information for detecting poison arrows should try the book called Basic fengshui manual by author lillian too. It also contains information on eight mansion theory. Please dont post any 8 mansion questions since thousands of question are already posted on this topic. Any way happy reading.

Dear Susan, Yes, I do agree with your comments. It has nothing do with Traditional Feng Shui. As this is not based on Traditional Feng Shui practises. Some traditional Feng Shui Practitioners (with a religious flair) would instead `protect' the main entrance e.g. with charms or the traditional Ba Gua mirror. This is the first time, I have heard of such a `practise' also. Perhaps, new wave " FS ". Warmest Regards, Cecil

Dear Lyn, Under Shapes and Form Feng Shui, your house should not `sit' lower than the frontage i.e. front yard. Is it possible to reverse this? Having the house lower than the frontage can have a negative effect on the homeowners. The house is equally `entrapped'. Warmest Regards, Cecil

Dear Dovie, One way of looking at things is: " I see, I like, I buy". If you find the tabletop water-point, nice, you can go ahead and purchase it. The above is based on `feelings' and intuition as opposed to the more complex analysis that one may do based on Traditional FS such as Flying Star (to check that a water position at a specific sector is acceptable or one's element and strength is suited to the above.) Warmest Regards, Cecil

Dear Cheui May, 1. Since you are aware of your element and strength, using it is more accurate means of looking at the compatiblitiy of the home and the individual sectors of your home. 2. The reason is because, when one looks at the Eight House Theory, we generally use only the YEAR of birth to derive our personal GUA (KUA) number. However, under Pillars of Destiny, we use the YEAR; MONTH; DAY and (if the TIME of birth is available) use all 4 Pillars = Eight Elements (Stem and branches) to deduce our true element and strength. 3. Since the common denominator is the Five Elements, we know that each element or each sector represents an element e.g. North = Water element; S…

Dear Oleta, 1. Frankly, and in my opinion, there are no hard or fast `rules' with regards to the color in a child's room. 2. But rather, it depends. Here, it depends on the location of the bedroom. For example, if the bedroom is facing a west location e.g. windows with direct sunlight that comes into the room. Then use cooler colours or a neutral colour such as white. Here, pink etc.. is not quite appropriate. 3. Some Feng Shui practitioners believe that the bedroom should (I use the word can) be painted to suit the child's Ba Zhi or element. This is quite a common advise provided by many FS practitioners. However, as I always believe, it depends on the level of particip…

Dear Timothy, 1. The `concept' of having a bed facing one of a person's worst direction is considered of `secondary' importance or ranking. 2. What is more important are: 2.1 Proper position of the bed in terms of Shapes and Form School of Feng Shui. For example, when you open the bedroom door, where possible, the bed should be on the opposite wall. It is equally important to see if the bed does not share the same wall as a toilet. If it is facing a toilet e.g. the door of the toilet `looks' at the "head board" or the head part of the bed, a remedy is to place a side table and place a lamp on top of it. This side table with a lamp on is symbolic of a `partition' between t…
