Joanne Books are considered like "knives" in Feng Shui. The ones in your storage room are not a problem, but I would remove those from beside your bed or cover them at night. As for the ones in the hallway, perhaps you could put some small pot plants with trailing branches among the shelves to soften the sharpness or a couple in a pot on the ground to somewhat "hide" the shelves. Cecil can no doubt give you more info. However, the former is what I have done in my study. Best wishes Glyn

Dear Donna, Thanks for your detailed information about the various fountains. Overall, when purchasing a fountain please take note of the following:- 1. Circular fountains are ideal. (Avoid purchasing any fountains with pointed edges, rounded edges are the best). 2. Avoid placing any rocks that symbolises a creature or some unknown shape resembling a person, an animal etc.. 3. Avoid having an animal or fish or any other objects with their `mouth' open facing the house. This will create problems for the breadwinner as a hungry mouth symbolizes a need to feed it. This may bring illness or loss of fortune to the household. 4. A fountain should not be `cluttered' with figurin…

Hi Cassandra Before going any further, I must ask, have you done a Pillars of Destiny Chart (there is a free one on this site) to find out your element ? If not may I suggest you do as if the colors chosen are not complimentary to your element you could have all sorts of problems. IMHO orange seems very strong for a bedroom. Too yang. Needs to be more yin otherwise sleep may be restless. Under the Eight House Directions is your bedroom in one of your auspicious sectors ? Best wishes Glyn

Dear Cecil, Thank you for your response. The lot is a residential lot. My husband and I are looking at buying a house, and we found a house that we like very much. It is on a good direction (according to the Eight House calculation) but the lot is irregular shaped with the back smaller than the front, its dimension: 77ft wide at the front and 44ft wide at the back, 1 side is 148 ft long, another side is 138ftlong. I would like some advice if there are any cures or is it worth to purchase the house. Thank You very much. Van.

Dear Cecil, I would be interested in learning more about this, also. Would this topic be included in Shapes & Form School? I love gardening and am curious if my vegetables and flowers are affecting the feng shui of my home.

Dear Simon, Don't worry about it. I understand that you are very young and not the bread winner (not yet I guess). For you, empasis should be placed in your bedroom. One important consideration under Feng Shui is that your Ba Zhi (Eight Characters), for example, the colours of the room should not `clash' with your personal element. You can also take advantage of the Eight House Theory i.e. sleep and study facing one of your good directions. Wishing you continued success in your studies!

Hi, Feng Shui should be personalized to an individual to be effective. The most common question asked is: Can something so general be applied to everyone of us? The answer is No. Similiarly, even a " famous Feng Shui Master " should not say that it can apply to anyone. In the Internet or around you, do question any Feng Shui Practioner. Ask them what is the reason for saying so. Each person who says something should backup their words with a reasonal explanation or if it based only on their opinion, I guess, each of us have the right to judge for ourselves. Another way of looking at this situation is, what was mentioned by this " famous Feng Shui Master " does not go down…

Dear Evelyn, Frankly, I see no harm in having two small precious stone elephants. You can certainly display them proudly. Elephants are revered in India and Thailand and are considered auspicious.

Dear Pedro, Yes, there are a few considerations for any doors:- 1. It should always open inwards into the house. (Avoid having a door that opens outwards of the house). 2. If it is the main entrance door, the door or doors should be of equal size. The door(s) should be proportionate to the frontage or area of the house. 3. If the door is at the side, it should open towards the wall. 4. It should preferably not be in the "middle " of a room but preferred that it should be at any one of the side of the room. If not the door would be `hanging' in the " middle of the room. " Therefore priority must be given for the door to open inwards. It can be on any side of the room. Wher…

Dear Lisa, There are a few considerations here:- 1. North East Direction is considered the devil's gate. It is adviseable for you to:- a. Use the Eight House Template to check which intangible force is influencing the main entrance door. Best that it is not the Death / Disaster location. b. It is also good to know which intangible force affects your masterbedroom. As for the North - East Direction or devil's gate, you do not need to worry other than to avoid having a lone large plant on the North East or on the right side of the house i.e. if you are standing on your main entrance and looking outside, you should avoid having a large tree on the right side of the house. c.…

Dear Irina, Here are the following points to note:- 1. Ideally, the bedrooms should be one of the four auspicious directions (Health, Prosperity, Excellent or Longevity). But it is still acceptable if it is the Irritation or Spook directions. This is much better than the death / disaster location. 2. The following are useful guidelines when using the Eight House Theory:- 2.1 Where possible sleep closer to an auspicious intangible force (If this is not possible, then you do not have much choice.) 2.2 Where possible sleep with the head facing one of the auspiciious directions. But do bear in mind the Shapes and Form School of Feng Shui. For example under the Four Symbolic …

Dear Linh, Yes, you are correct with regards to the toilet next to the main entrance. The two most inauspicious situations are:- 1. Having the toilet next to your home entrance (at either side). This is because the main entrance is like the `mouth' of the house and is considered important as it is considered the first location external Qi comes into the house. 2. Center of the house. Best is to keep the center clear. This is where all intangible forces congregate. A toilet in the center of the house will mean a drain in financial resources. Other situations e.g. toilet at the East, West are equally important but weigthage should be given to the above two points. Any cures…

Dear Linh, Here are the following guidelines on the toilet:- 1. Ideal situations are where the toilet bowl should not be actually on the following points:- 0 degrees - North, 45 degrees - NE, 90 degrees - East, 135 degrees - South East, 180 degrees - South, 225 degrees - South West, 270 degrees - West and 315 degrees - North West. Why? Most likely if the toilet bowl is at this location, chances are it will be on one of the Eight Trigrams which can be either an auspicious or inauspicious location. What is the definition of toilet here:- Ideally, this exact compass point should not be the location of the toilet bowl or (sewerage pipe). It is still acceptable for a basin or…

In Feng Shui, so long as:- 1. More concerned is placed on the Shapes and Form School of Feng Shui. For example, the bed is not next to a window or sleeping under a beam for a prolonged time, bedroom should preferably not be above the kitchen. A poison arrow e.g. the sharp edge of a table `slicing' the bed. These are some of the examples to take note in relation to Fe…

Dear Michelle, Thank you for your kind words on the forum. Nowadays, this forum has grown quite large and there are many who have joined the forum from day one and there are also new users. Therefore, the best approach is to try to have a " balance " in the information provided. For those of you who have been with the forum for quite a while, if you have constructive advice, feel free to share it with all of us. Learning is two way and it is nice to hear from everyone. Back to your question. There are a few practioners who have the view point that:- 1. One should sleep on a raised bed. This is to allow Qi to pass thru under the bed. 2. Others feel that the above argument …

Dear Glyn, Thanks for bring up this subject. First of all, for the benefit of those who do not know what is the " Deadly five yellows ", I will give a brief sumarry of the points relating to it although it has been covered earlier on in this forum. (For those who want to read earlier messages can try to use the " Search " feature once you logged into www.geomancy-forum.com Perhaps search for " Five yellow ". 1. Feng Shui `revolves' around the Five Elements Concept. Here, the Five Elements is represented by either a name or a number or a colour or a combination of them. For example, lets look at the element " Earth ". Under the Five Elements Concept, Earth is one of the …

Dear Laraine, Before we address your question, you may have to be aware that there are a few `levels' of Feng Shui analysis:- 1. Very detailed Feng Shui analysis If a person is new to Feng Shui, he or she may need to consult an experienced Feng Shui Practioner to address isues such as what you are facing. Alternatively, if you know how to use the computerised tools here, with some help, I am confident you can overcome your problems. The following are the most crucial Feng Shui Theories:- 1. Eight House Theory. I guess you must have already used this to find your most suitable locations in the house. Overall, this theory does what it is suppose to do, find out how suitabl…
