Dear April, 1. The most important consideration is the stove. a. Where possible, the stove should not be under a beam. b. Check that there is (where possible) no water pipe that criss-cross or run along the stove. c. Position the stove with a `support' e.g. a wall. Never place the stove `supported' by a window. d. Where possible let the stove face into the house i.e. facing inside the house (in relation to the main entrance). e. As for the dishwasher, since it is a `water position', it is acceptable to be placed closed to the sink or below the sink. As both are of the water element. There should not be an issue even if it is used. In modern Feng Shui, the main criteria …

Dear Annie, Here are the considerations:- 1. Since you have not mentioned where is the front door, avoid placing the fountain at the right side of the door. I.e if you are standing at the main door and facing out of the house, the fountain should not be on the right side of the house. Usually, the result is `wandering eyes' or illicit affairs e.g. of the husband. 2. If the fountain is small or tiny, its effect is minimal. 3. Can you elaborate about the lamp post? If it can be seen from the window (or tangent or perpendicular to it); this is a poision arrow. To neutralise this, perhaps you can check out the conference: Photo Tours of Interest (with Pictures); Subject: What…

Dear Cecil, Thanks so much for your replies. It makes me feel much better, specially because I felt a bit silly about the whole thing. As regards your queries, I am posting a few details here: * A little about this house: It consists of two flats side by side on the first floor. Each has a hall, kitchen and a bedroom. The flat numbers are 101 and 102. The main entrance is the door of flat 102, which is NE facing. A numerologist we know advised us to keep the NE direction because as per Hindu astrology, it is auspicious. He also said the number ?102?which adds up to a 3 is not good and so asked us to write it as ?102B? for a more favourable number 5. (Actually the original…

Dear Daniel, I don't think it is a good idea to let your car rot since it will make the surrounding chi stale and it might even block the good chi. But then it is just my opinion. Anon

Dear Anon, Usually, the Feng Shui Masters use the I-Ching for prediction. As Feng Shui has limited scope and not a predictive tool. In order to do a computer program, the programmer must be as good or better at feeding it the inputs i.e. garbage in garbage out. Warmest Regards, Cecil

RE: Trigram over a door

Dear Carrie, Thanks for your offer to look into the books. Personally I feel it is not necessary to do so. This is because, traditionally:- 1. A trigram should not be modified but rather based on the First Heaven Sequence Trigram. Ref: http://www.geomancy.net/fs/pakua.htm 2. In my personal opinion, modifying the Ba Gua trigram is a modern invention; perhaps invented by the author him/herself and have no basis in Traditional Feng Shui. 3. For Feng Shui books best to get books written by Traditional Feng Shui authors or if one prefer, 9-Star Ki authors. Where possible not to mix both methods. 4. Try to avoid books written by Black Hat Sect (BTB) authors. Where possible avo…

Dear Anon, 1. The first priority on the Shapes and Form School of Feng Shui i.e. the position of the bed. Some important points are: 1. The bed headrest should be against a wall for support. 2. Avoid sleeping with the legs in full view of the bedroom door. 3. Avoid the bed headrest against the window. 2. After having considered above, you can then try to personalise Feng Shui. Is the bedroom exactly at your South West compass point or can you shift it such that it is closer to another compass direction without compromising Para 1. It is best to avoid sleeping at the Southeast as this is inauspicious. If you work 10-11hours and spent less time, in the bedroom, you should …

Dear Anon, Before I elaborate on your question, I like to share with you a little about the Compass School Theory such as the Flying Star theory. In my opinion, I believe that one way of looking at Feng Shui audit lies with the inclination of the Feng Shui practioner. I mentioned in a few forum messages sometime back that some of us are more inclined to being a Left brain while others are Right brained. I mentioned `inclined' because unlike the continuum of Hot and Cold, most of us are somewhere in the `middle'. We are not totally `left' or `right'. Some of us are more artistic, spatial etc.. On the other end, others are `logical', enjoys mathematics etc... To a certain …

Dear Anon, In the past, particularly in China, the best sites were chosen for a city e.g. Canton, Fujian etc... In this case there is not much choice to have houses built near to a volcano. One way to see it is to apply the 33 percent ruleset. The roof is so tiny and it is not going to affect the environment. Even if it is red colour. Rather, it is the threat of the volcano that can change things. Look at it this way, if the volcano is going to erupt, it will with or without the red roof Warmest Regards, Cecil

Dear Anon, Under Feng Shui, the Flying Star analysis `superseeds' the Eight House theory. One must first understand what the Eight House Theory is. One purpose is meant that one should spent more time at an auspicious direction. *JOKE* Imagine, if we apply the above theory, that we need to spend more time at an auspicious sector, does it mean that we need to find an excuse for ourselves to go to the toilet. To the extreme, should we create a bookshelf in the toilet etc.. For the East toilet, we should also look at it from a global picture i.e. look at the entire layout plan. For example, it is inauspicious if the toilet is at the East and next to the main entrance door. I…

Dear Anon, Please see below:- If the compass direction falls closer to one wall, the mountain star should be placed on this wall. The rationale is that there is a conflict here. The front door should be activated by a water star. e.g. outside the front door, it should be low and clear space. Placing a mountain star inside the front door does not achieve the above purpose i.e. a waste of time and money. In addition, what happens if the solid object falls off and hits the head of someone coming into the main entrance door. Ideally, it should be objects like a paper weight and immovable e.g. without wheels. It can be of any materials e.g. a solid rock object, cr…

Dear Maria and all users, I would sincerely like to point out the `dangers' of Fast Food Feng Shui. I am glad that you asked the question. If one does not know the answer, it is best to check first before `implementing' self-help Feng Shui cures. As I recall, there was this Doctor, who bought books on Feng Shui. He went out to buy a foutain, started to (I believe) read chapter by chapter. At each chapter or what he thought were his element e.g. based on the year of his birth, he found that e.g. he was a Fire element person. He started to paint the main gate with a colour that he though would `enhance' him. Later on, when he used the traditional Pillars of Destiny which an…

Dear Carrie, Please see below:- 1. The Bagua trigram (which includes the Bagua mirror has to be display outside of the house e.g. above a door. 2. As there is another question on the same subject in the next recent forum message, I will touch on it in that message. 3. There is no basis for a Bagua mirror to be placed to enhance a situation if the location it faces is an auspicious location unless to `ward off evil'. A bagua mirror is commonly used for:- 1. To neutralise Sha Qi or poision arrow aimed at e.g. the main entrance door or a window. Here it is place above the main entrance door (at the centrepoint). 2. In Asia, it is very common for Feng Shui practioners wh…

Dear Cecil, Thank you for your response. I have read so many bad things about graveyards and feng shui. You have made me feel good about a house and setting that my husband and I feel so wonderful in. It truly is beautiful, I had a hard time believing that it could be so terrible. Thank you, again.

Dear Daniel, I am glad that you brought up your viewpoints. What you have mentioned in general is what some Feng Shui practioners practise: " Generalised Feng Shui ". One good thing about generalised Feng Shui is that one do not need to explain and analyse Feng Shui based on e.g. The Five Elements relationship. It is so easy to `preach' Feng Shui based on our feelings and to be on the safe side, use a fixed template. Anyone can practise such Feng Shui in hours. Each of us can write a book based on our experiences. To speed up things, one person writes about the Career Sector in the North. Invert the template for the South and this becomes a sensational book on Feng Shui f…

Dear Rodica, There are many ways to look at health in Feng Shui and Chinese Divinity Methods. Usually, one should not fall sick often. If so, one good tool is the Flying Star Theory. Here, look out for Flying Star: Star 2 influence. It could most likely be in the bedroom. Star 2 (Sickness Star) and Star 5 (Misfortune) when combined together are two of the `worst' stars under this Theory. Underground water directly below a house also have negative effects. In independent German studies, have conclusively shown that when the study plotted water courses under a house, the incidence of cancer arouse. The above are worst case senarios. Other related Chinese principles include:…

Problem bedroom

Hi Carrie Are you sleeping in your Death or Disaster Sector ? This could be contributing to your problem. I have noticed in my practice that when clients complain of insomnia, invariably their bedrooms have yellow or blue walls. And, these two colors in many cases are usually activating some inauspicious stars which are contributing to the sleep problem. There appear to be many problems which you will have to address,but I give my input based on my experiences to date. Best wishes Glyn

Dear Carrie, I agree with you. You should try out the curtain first. This is because, one should not place the Kuan Yin figurine on a study table or in the bedroom. For those who are not sure what the Kuan Yin figurine looks like, there is a photo of it under the conference: Photo Tours of Interest (with Pictures) look for something like figurine... The reason why one should not place the Kuan Yin figurine is that it is a revered Chinese `God'. She is called the Goddess of Mercy. Locally, in Singapore, there is also a temple at Waterloo Street devoted to her. In Chinese Beliefs, (not Feng Shui) it is `dirty' for Gods to look at human beings especially in intimate location…

Dear Carrie, In my opinion, a mirror may not be effective to deflect the `arrow' of the roof line because it will still be pointed against you. The two alternatives are: 1. As mentioned earlier, you need to use a blind or a screen. A white see through curtain is acceptable. 2. Ideally, if you can place one dragon figurine on your table and aim it at the poison arrow. It is best not to use a small cannon piece but this can be pointed at the `arrow' if you cannot find a dragon. But becareful when using the cannon. Do not face it in the path of any other buidings or allow it to be `reflected' back to your home. Warmest Regards, Cecil

Dear Help, I believe what you had printed out is based on the Eight House Theory. Since you are building a new house, if you can get Professional Feng Shui help instead. This is because, if you are new to Feng Shui, there are lots of considerations. For example, 1. Shapes and Form It is not only about your house but the surrounding environment i.e. the landscape and especially the site. Consideration include any water positions at the front, side or back of the house, the other landmarks or buidings nearby. 2. The Flying Star of the House This consideration is equally as important as finding a suitable house that match the breadwinner. There are many more considerations…
