Dear Anon, Usually, from what I have encountered, this should not pose a problem. Especially if one only rents a bedroom. There is not much choice here. The only thing to remember is to conceptally "departmentalise" the bedroom i.e. keep the scultures at a corner or if really no space on a display shelf or at a corner table or even share it with the study table. We have to be practical as not all situations can be overcomed... our love of the sculpture and space constraints. Warmest Regards, Cecil

Dear Anon, 1. The reason why some FS Practitioners say to palce it in the good sector is so that when it rings, it is suppose to bring `good luck'. Unfortunately, there are others who have the view point that the `ringing' at a good sector `chase' away good luck. 2. Some on the other hand advise to place as what you had mentioned, West and NW because these are metal element sectors. To these practitioners, they `feel' that as the West and NW are metal element sectors, one should enhance the metal element with `rining' tones as to them the ringing tone is metal element. Similarly, to these FS practitioners wind chimes and even clocks with pendulum serves this purpose. 3. …

Dear Anon, So far, I do not believe that anyone has painted their walls black. Black creates a dark environment. Contrast this with a white wash house that looks bright and clean. Therefore, there is some truth in the statement. Applying the 33.3 percent ruleset, other black objects or items should not be an issue here. For example, IBM products are all black. Their excellent IBM thinkpad notebook PCs, some high end PCs are all encased in black. Robert and myself, do use these black machines without cause for concern. Overall, one can also apply the 33.3 percent ruleset where less than 33.3 percent is not going to affect a person. Warmest Regards, Cecil

Dear Anne, True Feng Shui is not like `Credit Card' Feng Shui. One do not need to `purchase' something in advance in the hope that spending such money would get one riches. If one is not sure of where to place a picture of a waterfall, one should try not to place it. The other method is if one feels comfortable about it and really like the picture and have to `urge' to place it at a location. Ideally, pictures of water falls should not be placed in a bedroom. The more professional method is to use e.g. Flying Star to check if a sector has balance or imbalance. This theory can be used to check if there is or do not have an imbalance. If there is an imbalance and it is cau…

Dear JL, 1. The main purpose of all Feng Shui theories is to correct imbalances in the Five elements. 2. Under the Flying Star School of Feng Shui, for example if there is an imbalance e.g. a Sickness (2) star and a Misfortune (5) star. If the location happens to be the bedroom, one has thus to cure the imbalance e.g. placing 6 coins at that sector to cure it. Here, an imbalance is `calculated' and thus a remedy is used to neutralise the imbalance. 3. Many a times, when one usually fall sick, the above would most likely be the cause. Here, we take action to cure it for a specific reason. Being healthy afterwards, can be indirectly related to `fertility'. 4. Many Feng Shu…

Dear Anon, If one frequently falls sick in a home. Most likely if one does a Flying Star analysis, the `evil' 2 (sickness) or 5 misfortune star is at the location e.g. the bedroom. The proper Feng Shui tools should be used correctly to analyse or fine tune the situation. " What you see is not what I see ". Under the Shapes and Form School of Feng Shui, each of us have different levels of understanding. Some of us see nothing at all while others can pin point to the problem. One excellent example was what Evelyn Lip mentioned in one of her books. (Credit goes to her for this) I believe she brought out an example of an owner of the house, who faced difficulties with the hom…

Dear Anon, Usually, the advise is to "go slow" with Feng Shui. It has also to do with what is the level of Feng Shui one is prepared to go into? The quickest way (but cost money) is to go for a Full Feng Shui audit by a competent FS practitioner. Else, if one wants to `learn' (learning is not good enough) but rather applying Feng Shui, one has to spent time and effort like any other disciplines. Like I mentioned, there are lots of resources available both e.g. in this website. Starting point: http://www.geomancy.net/fs/theory.htm or get yourself books on Feng Shui. For calculation under the Eight House, I recommend you spent sometime to browse through http://www.geomancy…

Dear Felicia, Frankly, under Feng Shui (Pillars of Destiny) there is no direct application to improve one's relationship. This is because the closes concepts is based on Pillars of Destiny (Ba Zhi). However, Ba Zhi has an `escape clause' which says that it can map out one's Heaven map e.g. of a person and his/her luck. However, our education, parents influence, our experiences can change our heaven's luck. In my opinion, it is better to use other `educational' techniques or behaviour model e.g. child psychology etc... For now, the closest I believe Pillars of Destiny can help is to do a Pillars of Comparison Chart to find the binding elements of two parties. This module…

Dear Anon, 1. A recent message has provided the colours for all the various elements. Reference url: http://www.geomancy.net/fs/colours.htm 2. Overall, one must remember that colours is secondary to Feng Shui. 3. Although it is quite important, but I have to emphasise that it is second to other more important points. For example, if one's house has a toilet at the centre of the house. The most likely effect is a drain in finances or problems with `retaining money.' 4. Other bad Feng Shui include a poison arrow aimed at the main entrance of the house. 5. More scary ones include the description of recent house where death will occur twice (I believe this is shown under th…

Dear Anon, Recently, there are quite alot of discussions on statues and objects. For those who have been in this forum for quite sometime will know that I am going to say that this is related to Chinese beliefs. Some may not even be Chinese beliefs but believes of various people or simply decorative art works. The most common statues found outside Chinese buildings or homes are a pair of lions on each side of the main entrance. It is common to find these statues nearly everywhere. It can be at the main entrance of a restaurant or at the stairs leading to the restaurant. It is found outside Chinese shops and buildings. If one looks at the statute carefully, it is standing …

Dear Anon, Members of www.geomancy-online.com can make use of the Pillars of Comparison module to check the relationship of two parties. You can check out the various combinations. For example:- Compare Husband and son Husband and daughter son and daughter Wife and daughter Wife and son etc... It would be interesting to do so:) This is to take advantage of the computing power to analyse in detail the various relationships, clashes etc.. of true tradtional Pillars of Destiny.

Dear Chew Chin, For a beginner of Feng Shui, the easiest to `pick' up is the Shapes and Form School of Feng Shui and the Compass School: Eight House Theory. For advanced audits, Flying Star Theory is used to determine the birth chart of the house. Pillars of destiny: element strength and season of influence is used especially to understand a `bigger picture' and to further analyse the various cures/enhancements and its effect on the individual. For those who do not have the patience or do not want the hassle of reading endlessly about Feng Shui can get a professional help from FS practitioners. Please see below:- I believe that you are very new to Feng Shui. It is be…

Dear Anon, Closing the lid of the toilet sit is secondary to Feng Shui. Here, the chief consideration is to try to locate imbalances e.g. using the Flying Star analysis for the house. If there is an imbalance, we need to `fix' it. As for closing the lid of the toilet, in my opinion, it is better to simply close the toilet door. If so, one do not need to close the lid of the toilet sit/bowl. You have brought up an interesting perspective thou:) Warmest Regards, Cecil

Dear Anon, 1. Normally, a water star implies a flat surface. A fish tank need not necessary "comply" with the water star i.e. clear space if it is tall. 2. The usual advise is not to place a fish tank in the bedroom. Here, bedrooms should be more Yin than Yang. However, this depends on the tolerance of individuals. It is like the mirror facing the bed. Some of us may feel uncomfortable while others do not feel anything at all. 3. A mountain star has to be located and cannot be activated at the window location. In my opinion, as the fish tank is most likely to be `tall', it is not necessary the equivalent of a water star in this case. Contrast a true water star e.g. a po…

Dear Anon, 1. If there are different `Gods' one should place them with a gap in between the altars. 2. The altar can be on the same level and simply leave a gap e.g. 1 or 2 inches between the `Gods'. Alternatively, another method is to use support to raise the `Gods' and leave them at different levels. The more important `God' should be highest and preferably in the centre of the alter placement. Do note that `raising the level of the Gods is not compulsory but just another consideration (instead of leaving a gap between the figurines). 3. Ideally, these figurines should be displayed `out' of the house. For example, avoid having it face into the bedroom or a toilet. 4.…

Dear Anon, Sorry, hope you can clarify futher as to where you had read where the phoenix and dragon are `kept' in the bedroom. So far, as I recall, I have not made the above remarks other than mention that they are symbols that some married couples use (embrodied) on their pillow covers. However, as the phoenix represents the Female and the dragon Male, they are sometimes embroided on pillow covers for `luck'. Warmest Regards, Cecil

Dear Anon, Apologise if the picture is not very clear. I have tried my best to scan a version of it plus considering the optimal size for it. No, the roof does not symbolise any auspicious `thing'. The `answer' will be posted in two weeks time. By the way, there are two new conferences created under geomancy-forum.com: (1). Try this Fun Polls and (2). Answers to Fun Polls A. This is to allow greater participation by everyone. And would be nice to see how everyone has voted so far. B. One can only vote once per poll. (To avoid `cheating'. If you have a poll you want created you can:- 1. Either create an account at www.pollit.com, create the poll and post it into an messag…

[Note: This message refers to the Sample Wedding Invitation cards, Chinese New Year cards that was posted recently to the conference: Photo Tours of Interest (with Pictures) This conference is not included in the mailing list but rather, one has to login to the forum to see them as it contains pictures etc..] Dear Anon, I agree with you. Why not red envelopes used. Red envelopes are also used. However, the `disadvantage' of using red envelopes is that if one tries to write on it, especially with blue or black ink, it is pretty hard to see. (I believe this is the main reason). Otherwise, red envelopes are acceptable. Warmest Regards, Cecil

hi anon, I think having a mortuary next to a pharmacy is not ideal. The yin energy from the mortuary is too strong. It may affect the good feng shui of the pharmacy. Just my personal opinion. Steven L.

Dear Anon, 1. Ideally, good buildings have the `water' facilities away from the offices. Here, pumbing can be concentrated at the corner of a building i.e. the pantry area, the toilets (both male and female). 2. Since most of us are not going to spent so much time at the toilet area, the male and female toilets can still be next to each other. Usually, the centre area or a walkway for maintenance (housing the pumbing) for both toilets) is between the male and female toilet. 3. No matter how, the above is still a better choice rather than the toilet in the middle or at one location where it does not at least share one external wall. Here, some office main entrances may b…
