Dear Members, 1. On member was asking on a book on choosing names. 2. Dr. Evelyn Lip had written a book approximately 110 pages. 3. One intersting topic is choosing names according to the number of strokes in each character besides other significance, symbolism and traditions in Chinese numbers. 4. In my opinion, the book is a simple introduction to Chinese numbers. And if you can find it in your local library, it is certainly worth borrowing it especially, if one wants to do a `research' into this area. (I think it should cost around US$10.00 or less.) Warmest Regards, Cecil

Dear Darlene, 1. In my opinion, many of us live in different parts of the world and climate/humidity is different. 2. Look out for plants that: 2.1. Are easy to maintain: They do not need much attention or need to be regularly moved out of the house. Plants that can `live' all year round the house would be nice. 2.2. Avoid plants that have torns or spiky. 2.3. In Asia, because of the humidity, some grow more plants with `waxy' leaves where moisture loss is less. In general the following plants can ge grown indoors (but depends on where it is placed) and the part of country one is in:- - Lilies - Money plant - Begonias - Bromeliads - Peace lily The above are some of the ty…

Hi everyone, I remember a user posted a message regarding vast u. Well I came across a book called Vastu Living Creating A Home for the Soul by author Kathleen Cox. After reading the book I was surprised to notice lot of similarities between vastu and feng shui. Vastu Indian science of architecture and is also based on cardinal direction and also emphasis the nature and 5 different elements(air, water, fire, wood, earth). But there is heavy emphasis of symbolism (deity). Well, anybody looking for more information on vastu should try this book. Good luck!

Dear Darlene, It would be `difficult' for me to reply to the question of a question on a `CORNER' and provide a `fixed' answer to it. This would mean the forum would end out no better than a non-tradtional Feng Shui forum and become more like a FIXED TEMPLATE Feng Shui forum. In my opinion, fixed template Feng Shui is nothing more than a `con' job in trying to provide "advice". It is never wise to pay homage to a `corner' or simply look at corners. *JOKE* It also reminds one of wearing a DUNCE hat and asked to stand at the corner. There are more that real Feng Shui offers to many rather than the above. I have provided many examples and caricatures on the `effects' of corn…

Dear Darlene, It is difficult for me to recommend you on a print or photo as Feng Shui dwells more deeper than just a print or photo. The holistic approach to Feng Shui involves, a serious look at the Shapes and Forms both of the environment, the site and the home and the interior. Prints, photos are secondary and if this question was asked other than from a Traditional Feng Shui site, you can get remarkable `results'. Perhaps been asked to buy a special print that the author and some other sites would earn a commission out of. Even in Traditional Feng Shui, more need to be known. In my opinion, buy what you like or enjoy. Buy not because, one is `told' that it can bring …

If my bedroom door is north facing into the bedroom and the bed head is facing east what can I do to help my husband sleep ! He has chronic sleep problems. His birthstar is 6Wood (born 1958)and mine is 8 Metal(born 1966). Our room is dark and full of dark furniture - at the foot of the bed is a large dresser(West), a window (south) is directly opposite the door, and another window is at the NE corner. We have a house fan that pulls all the cool night air in but I'm wondering if it's activating too much chi through the bedroom for sleeping. Any thoughts, advice or remedy possibilities. Thanks - I'm so glad I found you ! Lydia

Some of us are familiar with the term "K.I.S.S." applied in other areas. K.I.S.S. refers to " Keep it Simple Stupid ". It is worth remembering that the essence of the above sentence can equally be applied effectively to Feng Shui. After all, it is commonsense and many Feng Shui concepts, theories and ideas are borne out of commonsense. Say "K.I.S.S." the next time:) Warmest Regards, Cecil P.S. I sent you all my " KISSes ":))

Dear Mariel, Yes, it would be best to try to revert to what it was like previously prior to the advise provided by the geomancer, first and monitor the situation. I am not sure what discipline the geomancer has but if his thoughts are merely based on his `intution' alone without reference to e.g. Compass School techniques or if it more from the angle of `sales' e.g. sale of windchimes etc.. where you need to place one or several such `objects', then it would not be appropriate. Warmest Regards, Cecil

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 Anon, 1. The main door is the door that (usually is interpreted) as the door e.g. with the house number on it. 2. Please see below:- 4. Here, by tilting the main door e.g. to North, or another direction, which is favourable to the breadwinner, it is like killing two birds with one stone i.e. avoiding the NE direction and making it auspicious for the breadwinner. 5. For your question of making the door the "northern direction" perhaps can you specify further. 6. As in the Compass School of Feng Shui, north is north, south is south. There is no reference to north and "northern direction?". 7. In such a situation, I believe that it is not correct to say that north…

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 Linda, Under the Eight House theory: 1. For the breadwinner look out for the main entrance (sector) and the bedroom where the breadwinner / spouse sleeps in. 2. For other family members especially your daughter, look out for the intangible force affecting her in the bedroom. Warmest Regards, Cecil
