Dear Anon, You don't need any money for using cures in traditional feng shui. What you have been reading about is BTB feng shui and it does not work. Trust me I am talking from personal experience. Don't waste your money on BTB cures. Instead apply the pillar of destiny, 8 house theory and flying star and shape and form and it will help you to achieve balance in all area of your life. Instead of focusing all your energy on wealth why don't you concentrate on health and peace of mind. Since if one does not have health and peace of mind one cant earn or enjoy the wealth. You can ask cecil or robert lee to help you. They have helped many people (who were in financial trouble…

Hi thank you for the great web site and the reports. However I don't know if I made a mistake when I originally filled out my info on the house I live in. It is a period 6 house but I am not sure if it became a period 7 house. When I moved in 2 years ago some renovations were made but I don't know if they were major enough to change the period of house. What was done: 1. Installed new carpeting throughout house except in kitchen and bath. 2. Extended kitchen wall 2 feet so the opening between living room and kitchen was a little smaller. 3. Made an opening in the hallway to get access to a bedroom closet without going into the bedroom 4. Knocked out 2 feet of wall t…

Dear Anon, 1. Can you elaborate whether the corner of (one or both) of the columns is/are "pointed" or aimed at the main entrance door. 2. Are the two columns equal width with the main entrance door. Hope you can clarify the above, first. Thanks. Cecil

Dear Anon, Can I check with you whether are the 2 rectangular chimneys (tangent) or if you stand at the window, and looking out directly, (without looking sideways) can you see the two rectangular chimneys? Usually, if you are in doubt, one can use the curtains (but if it is too dark) then use window blinds. Warmest Regards, Cecil

Dear Anon, This conversion is necessary only if you have downloaded the free software for your own desktop. The free software can calculate the kua, but I did not include my copyright software into this free software. As it was provided to everyone as I had created the software for fun:) However, if you are referring to the online reports provided by the My FengShui, every report has been automatically converted to Lunar Calendar before any analysis is done. Every Report you generate from our online services, provides one with proper conversion to the Lunar Date of Birth, which is used for all relevant calculations. Warmest Regards Robert Lee On 11/12/99 7:41:33 PM, …

Dear Anon, A three-legged toad does not feature prominently in any traditional Feng Shui literature. In my opinion, it is a commercial product. I leave it to anyone to decide whether they feel this is true or not. Do note that there is no basis for it under Feng Shui. Warmest Regards, Cecil

Dear Anon, Apologies, I still do not understand your question. To analyse a house, one should instead use proper tools like Flying Star Theory. One look at whether the house should be at the top or bottom quadrant is `too superficial' way of looking at things. Warmest Regards, Cecil

Dear Anon, 1. The `squeak' has more to do with `beliefs' than Feng Shui. 2. As for the door that does not close properly or difficult to close, it moves closer to Feng Shui and `commonsense approach'. 3. It is best that such as important thing like the main door not being able to close properly is best fixed as soon as possible. 4. As for commonsense approach, if the door is such that it can easily be opened by a burglar, than fix it fast. 5. In some situations where the Flying Star Analysis recommends that a sector has to be `kept quiet' do invest in a can of " WD40 oil". Warmest Regards, Cecil Warmest Regards, Cecil

Dear Anon, 1. This is a subjective question. I believe if you `throw' this question into the newsgroup, you will get all sorts of response. 2. Overall, the original aim of Feng Shui is to enhance beneificial Qi and neutralise Sha Qi. 3. Many Western Feng Shui practioners (especially those that are not Traditional Feng Shui) will love your question. These practioners will always emphasise on "space clearing" or clearing of clutter. 4. In my opinion, many who are not exposed to so many Traditional Feng Shui and related subjects naturally would place space clearing on their top most agenda. 5. Aside from Feng Shui `aspects', I believe there were others in the field of Manage…

Dear Anon, One has to do a full Feng Shui audit in order to look at e.g. the attic or basement etc.. from many angles such as Shapes and Form, Flying Star analysis etc... Therefore, I prefer not to `generalise' and make everyone follow a set principle. Each house differs and one should gather a total picture to make a final analsis. I hope you can understand my concern and reason for not stereo typing every situations as they can lead to a `misunderstanding'. Warmest Regards, Cecil

Dear Anon, There are two key issues here: 1. One should activate the `Water star' in the living room. Here, low furnitures or uncluttered furntiure helps. 2. Chinese antique furniture If it is an antique furniture, where possible check the history of furniture piece. I understand that it is quite difficult here. But old furniture had in the past absorbed Qi from its surroundings. Too many `antique' furniture is said to result in or some Feng shui practioners felt that it would result in "conservative thinking." 3. Similiarly, a house should be proportionate in size i.e. the living room must not be too large in relation to other rooms. In the opinion of some Feng Shui Mas…

Dear Anon, Where best, the main door should not be next to the rubbish chute. It is simliar to the result of having a toilet next to the main entrance door. For an elevator, it depends on the quality of the reinforcement between the lifts and the house. The thicker it is the better. Currently lifts are of the metal element and some Feng Shui practioners belief that lifts/elevators are moving metal. I personally belief, if the elevators are properly isolated, by concete and reasonably thick, this should not at the moment pose a problem. However, there is no harm if one uses the Flying Star Analysis to check on whether there could be an imbalance caused at this location by …

Dear Anon, Apologise, can you elaborate further what you mean by below the center line. In addition, can you elaborate not just the bedroom but what is at the `centrepoint' of the house (if I get u correctly). Warmest Regards, Cecil

Dear Anon, Potentially all long corridors have `difficult' Qi flows especially if they are narrow. Usually, if the corridor is reasonably large, plants are used (spaced out) along each side of the corridor. It can be alternated. But in a narrow corridor, some have used pictures or even a display shelf at the end of the corridor. For a toilet, it is best to close the toilet door when not in use and not leave it open. Warmest Regards, Cecil

Dear Anon, In order to understand `better', I like to share with you the fact that in the past, Chinese usually avoid having a toilet in the house! Here, there is totally no toilet at all. Hopes the above `answers' your question. For those who love water or long baths, it is not so good news. In my opinion, where possible the toilet bowl should not be at the true compass points i.e. at every 15 degree increments as this is based on the Flying Star 24 directions. The reason is because, if it so happen to be at an auspicious sector, this is not `so good.' Warmest Regards, Cecil

Dear Anon, Grateful if you can describe in greater detail as I still not sure what u mean i.e. do you mean that as you enter the main door, there are two walls on each side like a larger main door within the house? Thanks. Warmest Regards, Cecil

Dear Anon, Yes, some practioners consider this a poison arrow especially if it is above the bedroom door. The result is that it will affect the marriage e.g. separation or divorce. Warmest Regards, Cecil

Dear Anon, I believe your statement is true. I have not fully researched into this aspect but I have do remember coming across a variety of dragons. Cannot really remember off-hand if there are at least 13 but this figure sounds reasonable enough. Warmest Regards, Cecil

Dear cecil, The pakua mirror I am using is not convex mirror. It is the regular pakua mirror with the early heaven sequence and it comes with a hook attached to it so people wont hang it incorrectly. The poison arrow facing the main door is the neighbors roof and it points directly at my main door almost slicing it. I am not allowed to do anything else since it is rented property but I am allowed to use 1 nail so i used it to hang the pakua. Thanks.

Dear Anon, 1. Other methods include hanging beaded curtains. Or have a side table and placing a lamp on it if say the bed is facing the door of both rooms. 2. Alternatively, place a linen cupboard i.e. it can be a low one inside one of the rooms. The above are the best alternatives. Warmest Regards, Cecil

Dear Anon, This question covers quite a "wide angle" or a range of thinking and practise: 1. If you have seen the picture of the house I described under http://www.geomancy.net/fs/grandpa1.htm One will see that the original house looks like it has a " head " i.e. the Ba Gua shaped frontage of the house. A closer look and one will notice the body of the house. Locally, some older houses are of this type of shape while others are not. 2. Some older houses in Singapore has a toilet at the North (true compass direction) , a Ba Gua shaped roof at the South (also true compass direction) of the House. 3. Some houses neither conform to the above. 4. Here, there are as many think…

Dear Anon, As vines and creepers are plants, there is really no harm in having them in places (in the house) where one feels comfortable having them. If they able to grow and needs little maintenance, this is acceptable. The `taboo' is to avoid having them at the bedroom. The reason cited is that they are growing and a bedroom where possible should be more `yin'. Warmest Regards, Cecil

Dear Anon, `Arrows' and even forks are used not really to divert Qi but to neutralise Sha Qi. For example, if one has a circular staircases visible from the main entrance door. The ideal situation is to use a screen. But it is not possible to screen off from the rest of the house e.g. living room. Some Feng Shui practioners will use e.g. golden arrows i.e. a pair to neutralise it from (two)different locations. Forks (as in spoons and forks) can also be used for the above purpose. Warmest Regards, Cecil

Dear Anon, A picture on such situations would be nice. In general, this is not an ideal situation if the door is right `next' to the main entrance. Another way to look at is whether the frontage can still receive sufficient lighting or is there a constant shadow over the main entrance. Warmest Regards, Cecil
