Dear Carina, 1. There are various interpretation of `wealth corner'. 2. If one properly `practices' or if one is fortunate enough, with or without Feng Shui e.g. a good home with shapes and form and the house happens to suit the person, this far outweighs `soley' concentrating on just one corner. 3. Sometimes, doing so may do more `harm' than good. For example, if the corner is (suppose to be left alone), and if one places a plant that this sector where, there is an imbalance of a particular element. The plant may `unwittingly' be the productive help for the `rogue element' and further increase it's strength. There is indeed a possibilty here because we are talking abou…

Dear Carina, 1. This is only based on the `interpretation' of the Eight House and this is only one of the theories. It would be best also to look at other locations e.g. the bedroom (with this theory). The only `cure' in the Eight House is to avoid spending time at a specific unfavourable sector. For the main door, some resort to `tilting' it. But this has to relate to the findings done under the Flying star. As `tilting' the door, would mean changing the door direction. For changing the direction of the door, it is always best not to D.I.Y. (do it yourself). Usually, this is done in consultation with an FS consultant. 2. Usually the effects are "lessened", if the main …

Dear Anon, What is the rationale for not having the bed on the same wall as the door? In traditional Feng Shui, this is not advisable because, if one is suppose to sleep on the same wall (plus the head against the wall), you will not be able to see who comes into the room. (There is no longer an element of surprise). Of course, we can say that the door can be closed or sleep with the legs facing the wall. But the second is not considered auspicious. Thus if it is based on Shapes and Form Feng Shui, the above is the main reason for it. You have to see if the above is a good enough reason for yourself. But this is what it generally means in Feng Shui. In my opinion, I would…

Dear Anon, In Feng Shui, we always try to find a `breadwinner' i.e. the person who brings in the most money. When using the Eight House Theory, try to check that the death/disaster sector is not at the main entrance door area. We should not have a micro view of the situation. In using the Eight House, you must also find out e.g. what is the intangible force affecting your bedroom. And other rooms you spent time at. It generally tells you how well suited are you to your home. You can also use the Eight House Theory to find a good sitting position e.g. facing a good direction for study, work... Other than this, the Eight House Theory has limited applications. Warmest Rega…

Dear Shari, Perhaps, you can elaborate further as there are many phoentic sounding words. If you have the word in mandarin, or han yi pin yin, this would be better:) Warmest Regards, Cecil

Dear Anon, 1. Ideally, based on Shapes and Form Feng Shui, the kitchen, door where possible should not be next to the main door. 2. In the above situation, try to have the stove face in the house `to keep the warm' in. Yes, it is not bad an idea to hang a curtain cloth here. As Qi can still move in and out but slowed down. Where possible close the toilet door when not in use. Warmest Regards, Cecil

Dear Anon, Please see below:- Ideally, the more accurate method is to analyse all three elements i.e. that of the base number, mountain # and water # rather than base it on a combination of 10. The analysis of the three elements will look `within' to see if there are any imbalances (if any) at that sector. If there is an imbalance and the element identified, a cure can be use appropriately. Here, again, it is better to look at the relationships of all three elements within the sector. If there is indeed an imbalance, you only need to neutralise it. But if water is in the way of this analysis, it is preferably not be there or (for the breadwinner), it is advisable…

Dear Anon, Where possible, try to allow Qi to meander. It is better to `avoid' multiple "layers" of open areas (if you can). Since you are more familar with your home, can you feel a rush of air when standing at your door i.e. at certain times? If you have windows on the other walls of the room, this would lessen the effect. For example if you have windows only at the North and South of the house, wind depending on the time of day will blow from e.g. high pressure zone to low pressure zone and vice versa. And if you only have windows at North or South or ( East and West ), then you may feel the gush of air pressure flowing directly from North to South or vice versa. I h…

Dear Anon, The size of the diameter circle can be between 2.2 cm to 2.8 cm. For the star, can be slightly larger, from tip to tip at around 3 cm. Need not be larger than the above per `foil'. Warmest Regards, Cecil

Dear Anon, Water fountains can generally be placed in a living room especially, if one based it on intuition. If based on `investigative' Feng Shui, these are some of the considerations: 1. for the breadwinner who is a weak fire or strong water person, it is advisable not to have a water position in the house. 2. Under the Flying Star analysis, for example you have mentioned a specific sector or compass direction. Ideally, one should look at the elements e.g. water & mountain star plus the base and check to see if it is acceptable to add a water position. The above two concepts are important in Feng Shui. There is another concept called Ba Zhi Feng Shui which Robert w…

Dear Carina, In Feng Shui, the compass direction North or 0 degrees is represented by the Water element. This is the rationale why many Feng Shui practitioners relate the link between water positions and water. `North' therefore refers to the true compass direction i.e. at 0 degrees. North therefore does not mean relative north positions. Warmest Regards, Cecil

Dear Alex, 1. In Japan, the Feng Shui practitioners usually practise `9-Star Ki'. 9-Star Ki is one and the same as Flying Star Feng Shui. The only difference is that because of the way, information has been collated, one should not mix the two together. 2. My recommendation is that you either follow one or the other but not use both. 3. Usually, a holistic approach in Feng Shui i.e. if properly used i.e. to enhance the Earth Luck thru Feng Shui and Heaven Luck thru Pillars of Destiny, may help in this area. Warmest Regards, Cecil

Dear Anon, There are two `issues' here: 1. Usually, we do not look at your element e.g. weak fire or strong water with external water positions. 2. Priority should be given to balance the exterior of the house. Warmest Regards, Cecil

Dear Anon, 1. Thanks for your reply. 2. In my opinion, based on what you have mentioned, this should not be an issue. The cactus plant and the purpose why it was placed there does not seem to pose a threat to your home. 3. A threat is usually one where it slices thru the main door e.g. at the middle or if one stands at the door, one can see e.g. a lone lamp post. Warmest Regards, Cecil

Dear Anon, 1. Yes, it is good feng shui to have the kitchen share an external wall. 2. It can be the wash basin. 3. `Rooms' that do not share an external wall would imply that they are somewhere in the interior of the house (not necessary centrepoint) but somewhere in the `interior'. This applies to other `four walled' rooms such as a bedroom. Warmest Regards, Cecil

Dear Anon, 1. Priority should be given to Flying Star Analysis rather than lessen the `irritation' of the Eight House Theory. The Eight House Theory offers no cure with respect to Feng Shui. 2. Either you sleep further away or stay away from that sector or use the spouse as a `shield'. For example, if that sector is his health sector, he sleeps closer to this intangible sector. 3. In any event, irritation is not as worse off as the `death or disaster sector'. 4. The better method of enhancing your room is not to just look at your personal element and enhance based on this but to look at both husband and wife's element and strength and find a `binding' combination i.e…

Dear Anon, To help you understand better, I have drawn a sketch of two layouts which are considered good staircase layout plans. There are more, but these two are, in my opinion, the most common ones:) Two sample layouts: Layout A and B of auspicious location of a staircase. The advantage of staircase: Layout A is that if one can imagine, a storeroom can be built below the stairs. Secondly, there is a private corridor to go upstairs.

Sample of Three Coins tied with red string. Common advice: Place it in your wallet Further to those who are new to this forum:- In the past, I have posted the following information: 1. Use the 5 elements concept (Ref: http://www.geomancy.net/fs/5element.htm ) Under the destructive element: Example 1: If you are a strong metal person, in order for this person to create wealth, he `destroys' the element wood. If you are a strong wood person, by destroying `Earth' you create wealth If you are a strong earth person, by destroying `Water' you create weath etc... Under the above condition, you must be STRONG in order to destroy the element `in-front' t…

Dear Anon, 1. This arised because a user asked whether to cover the shoe rack. Earlier, I posted that it is of course much better to remove the shoe rack if it is at the main entrance area. 2. The correct way to practise Feng Shui is to manage the entire house e.g. make sure that everything is inbalance first. I merely mentioned that whether to cover or remove the shoe rack is secondary. I believe what you have asked was, can things be changed by removing the shoe rack or covering it. I mentioned that, it is not the most important thing to do in Feng Shui. For example, if there is a hole in a ship. Even if it is a small one, there will still be leaks in it. So, it is in…

Dear Anon, This is quite subjective and there are differing opinions on this. You have added a further `twist' by indicating that it can be seen from the side. If you MUST do it, `try it' and willing to share with us your findings, that will be great. Warmest Regards, Cecil

[HDB stands for Housing and Development Board or Government Development Housing for the masses in Singapore. I believe, 90 percent of Singaporeans stay in these flats]. Dear Anon, 1. Even under Feng Shui, there are priorities and importance. Threats of serious importance are e.g. sharp corner of another building aimed at the house. 2. Secondly, usually, if I am not mistaken: 2.1 These service yards, are not aimed against the door of another apartment. Perhaps, the window of another block's service yard. 2.2 In my opinion, these are `weak' threats or no threats at all. Frankly, I have yet to come across or seen a `neighours bamboo poles aimed at another's main door. Mayb…

Dear Anon, 1. In my opinion, Feng Shui cannot help you in this area. 2. I heard of other methods e.g. acupuncture etc... Alternatively, if this sounds `scary', perhaps, you would like to find other programs or join a help group on this. Warmest Regards, Cecil

Dear Gloria, 1. Does the cabinet of the TV or any other objects in your room form a sharp corner aimed at the bed? Or any beams above the bed. 2. Under Feng Shui, you can also check: 2.1 The Eight House Theory to see what are the intangible force at this sector of the room. To find out more on this theory and application: http://www.geomancy.net/fs/house1.htm You can also use the computerized report at http://www.geomancy-online.com to generate the report. 2.2 The investigative method is to use the Flying Star Analysis to balance the house especially sectors that are out of balance. Most likely, there may be a sickness or misfortune star at that sector or other imbalance…
