Hi, It is acceptable to have a coin in the mouth and this signifies a " close mouth. " As for the dragon figurine(s):- 1. The Dragon is considered the most Yang of all animals. 2. If one's main door falls under an inauspicious sector of the Eight House one can still use a pair of Dragons (one is still ok) aimed at the main door). 3. Where possible avoid using a Five Claw dragon as it is too yang for the home. It is best to use a four claw dragon. 4. So far, a dragon with an open mouth is acceptable. In fact most of the dragons have open mouth for them to `shoot' fire. Contrast this is a hungry tiger figurine which is inauspicious. Warmest Regards, Cecil Lee

Dear Hanan, Please see below:- -----Original Message----- From: Listmanager To: Recipients of 'free-advice' suppressed suppressed> Date: Friday, July 16, 1999 7:38 AM Subject: i need some help in my directions If you have a compass, you can find the exact direction of your toilet (mainly the toilet bowl). Where best it should not preferably at exact Compass directions e.g. 0 degrees, 45 degrees, 90 degrees, 135 degrees, 180 degrees, 225 degrees, 270 degrees, 315 degrees. This is because most likely if a toilet is at these locations, it may fall in one of the auspicious sectors. Warmest Regards, Cecil

I attended a seminar on baubiology. They offer a course in baubiology from florida. Usually, it is german concept of building homes which are in harmony with nature and also environmentally safe. They stress avoiding the water lines and electromagnetic lines and electric lines. According to their theory the houses should be built with environmental sound material. One should not sleep with telephones, electric clocks, tv and computer in the bedrooms etc. I attended the seminar last year. If I come across the notes and address of that course. I will post it. Usually, in this city there are some baubiology trained inspectors who come and inspect your homes for harmful rad…

Dear Wendy, Apologise for the late response, please see below:- Based on Eight House theories, there is very little change or fixes that you can apply. The only thing which I can suggest is that if you are staying in your bad locations sector, what you can do to minimize it is to make sure that you sleep facing your good sectors, that way, you can reduce the influences. Well, you cannot force someone to believe something. Just make "reasonable" changes especially those with good reasons. You know many Feng Shui advices are normally very environmentally friendly. Well, I guess that is a growing up phase which is cannot be explained by Feng Shui. So long as…

Chris and Cecil, I would have to wonder if the personality of the animal wouldn't have an effect on the chi of the home. Some animals are very docile and sweet, while others are much more active and playful. Still others should have never been allowed to become pets and belong in zoos. (or the bottom of the ocean) I've been in homes where horrible animals "ruled the roost" and the people were mere servants of the animal. I can't believe that an animal like that doesn't produce his/her own little version of sha-chi. Of course it also can be argued that the home itself can be the cause of the animal's good or bad traits. (as well as helping the person living there b…

Hi, In my country, we are not accustomed to keeping python, spiders and other snakes as pets. However, it would depend on the custom of a locality or country. Normally, such animals are not kept in a bedroom. There is no written document in the past on the above so looks like it is `new territory'. Overall, one can still apply the Yin and Yang concept and classify such animals and relate it to Yin and Yang. From the looks of the creatures, they are in my opinion generally considered Yang insects and reptiles. Here, one should have a balance between Yin and Yang. In the bedroom, again depending on who is sleeping there i.e. if it is a child, a more Yang environment is acc…

Hi, There is a graphics of an upside down FU at this URL: http://www.geomancy.net/on/destiny.htm Chinese usually hang an upside down FU symbol on their doors for luck! As for FOOK, this word `translated' in " English " and not the true Romanised form is too generalised to know what the word is. So unable to comment further. Warmest Regards, Cecil

Hi, Again, sorry, I have not read these two books. This is because, I am very selective on reading " Feng Shui books written in English ". In my opinion, after having read one, you most likely do not read anymore because either some of them are BTB or talks about the Shapes and Form. Warmest Regards, Cecil

Hi, In my opinion, it is not based on Traditional Feng Shui. Perhaps, the author is capitalizing on the theme " Feng Shui " to sell the book. I have not read the book but it should be a book on " Pets." rather than FS. Warmest Regards, Cecil

Dear Shelley, Thanks for bringing up this interesting question. A while back I mentioned that originally, Feng Shui is used at a macro level. At the micro level, we still look at the homes. But for the homes, it is more generalised Feng Shui. For example, in the past, we do not content with sleeping on a metal bed nor a water bed. We simply sleep on wooden beds because wood is easier to find and make use of. In a wider extent, symbols do play a part in ancient homes which are decorated with wooden panels or wooden carvings. Even the wooden Chinese antique furnitures have inlaid mother-of-pearls e.g. of leaves, flowers, fishes etc... This is not so much of Feng Shui but cu…

Any body interested in learning how numbers fly can try the book called "The idiots complete guide to feng shui". But please don't apply the remedy given in that book since it takes in to consideration the water star and mountain star and it is based on the facing and sitting direction of the house. And does not base calculation on the location of main door.

Hello Chris, Thanks for your advise...I've been told about this bad star 5, but method of cure seems to be different. I was told that since the star 5 belongs to earth, the cure will be more effective if "metal" elements is placed on the floor at your main door. What happen if the star 5 move away from the South position, is it necessary to remove the coins? In fact, my star 5 is at SE where my main door is located, and SE suppose to be wood. Wouldn't metal destroy wood? Any comments? Thanks. Regards.

Thanks, Cecil. We have added some good Feng Shui touches to the house to make it more auspicious, so hopefully that will attract the "right" owner. I just hope it is soon! Judy Knight

Further to what I had mentioned, for those who are not aware of the Chinese culture, ringing bell etc... is performed as a `rite' for someone who has died. Chinese monks who perfom the last burial rites use bells etc.. to guide the dead to their burial place. Here like wind chimes, one may inadvertently call some wondering `spirits' to the home. Warmest Regards, Cecil

Hi, Currently there are four methods of dealing with a T junction (not in any order of importance):- 1. Change the angle of the door to face one of your best directions i.e. tilt the door to one that faces one of your good directions. This is said to `kill' two birds with one stone. 2. If your main entrance door is elevated, you can have semi-circular steps leading to the house. This is one technique of `radiating' sha ch' away from your main entrance. 3. Alternatively, if your main entrance is level to your external of the house, you could consider a specially made semi-circular carpet e.g. of half of a sun with it's fiery sunlight (spikes) radiating away from the mai…

Dear Glyn, In general, the `calculation' of the amount of water is similar to the `calculation' for Missing Corners. This should be less than 33.3 percent of the house. Here we are talking about e.g. pool water. However, FIRST PRIORITY should be given to the consideration under the Shapes and Form i.e. it should not be in the centre of the house, the back of the house etc... Waterfalls with water in storage tanks etc.. are least affected because this is mostly installed by building owners and it usually does not exceed a `small' percentage of their land area. On the micro-level, it would depend on a person's element and how well it goes with water. For example, if a pers…

In general, as a balcony is above the ground and not on landed property, you can easily grow almost any plants that can bloom at the balcony. This is because, it is more important that you enjoy your little garden on the balcony then be constrained by what to plant. So long as the flowers continue to bloom, it is considered auspicious. For example, I have two plants on each side of my house balcony. Since the day I placed them, every day, you can see flowers on both plants. When my house was undergoing re-tiling, the plants we placed some other loation. They almost died. However, since they returned to the same location, they are continously booming. Go and see plants esp…

Hi, Chinese culture is quite diverse and each specific `tool' is used for different things. No, Feng Shui cannot possible make you loose weight. However, you have to move up the chain. What is the Chain? In the structure of Feng Shui, Chinese Divinity, Health etc.. there is a chain and if you cannot find your answers, you can move up the chain. Lets look at a very general overview of the Chain:- Highest Level : Taiji Upper Level : Yin and Yang Middle Level : The Five Elements Lower Level : Specific `Applications' such as Feng Shui, Ba Zhi (Eight Characters), Medicine. If you cannot find a certain thing, you look up the higher chain. For example, if loosing weight is n…

Hi, Not too long before the `Internationalization ' of Feng Shui where FS practioners read more of each other's works:- 1. Hong Kong FS Masters/Practioners are associated with the use of fish tanks to counteract sha. 2. In Taiwan, in the past, the `trademark' is the use of plants. Since most of us are not in Taiwan and Hong Kong: What happened? Most FS practioners all over the world use both! The one of the basic rule of the Shapes and Form School is not to (unnecessaryily) create poision arrows. Since most or all cactus plants have spikes these are considered poision arrows. Most of the time, if we follow simple rulesets such as above, we can in time easily deduce what …

Hi, Not to be confused, usually gardens should have a balance between Yin and Yang. The easiest answer is:- 1. Rocks, stones and anything `hard' is considered Yang. 2. Trees, plants, water point are considered Yin. It is best to have a mix of both and you usually find a good garden have both features. Warmest Regards, Cecil
