1.In my opinion, the lowest common denominator is the five elements concept. 2. How easy to apply a model or concept. So long as the concepts and method are sound, it is based on how easily it can be properly understood and applied. 3. Ultimately, Shapes and Forms Feng Shui is in my opinion most critical. Feng Shui cannot live without Shapes and Forms, but may survive without Flying Star and it's variant. 4. Thus in my opinion, if the concepts or models are based on Flying star, even the distant cousin nine star key belongs to this school.

One thing is for SURE! Reflections at Keppel don't look anything close to this illustration RIGHT? Anyway, who cares! I repeat: Tower Blocks even if they look like S-H-I-T; ain't SHIT! At least they are better than most other non-tower block type of homes... Get it? Got it?

I can offer two words: 1. Commensense. 2. No-hard-or-fast-rule.

In my opinion, it sounds better than a house directly facing a temple. However, if the temple is on a North-East and South-West alignment and vice-versa; and your apartment orhome is aligned in this North-East to South-West; then one has to be extra careful of the concept of: "Devil's gate". Besides this, location, location and location is equally important.

Please see my previous posting. Go seek Professional advice. As there is a limit to posting such a question. CLUE: all the available facts must be known: not imagined nor plucked from the air. These are some considerations:- 1. It is always best that you engage a professional to do the on-site assessment. 2. Like you mention, there is also a difference between water moving from left to right or right to left of the exact home or development; also taking into consideration things like the external drains (if any) and the external landscaping. 3. Another consideration is the plot vs neighbour's plot and any other visible water positions within the site and estate / gr…

Good Luck in your new venture! Just to clarify number "4" is subjective. As mentioned earlier; this number does not appeal especially to the Cantonese dialect group of the Chinese. In China, today especially in Beijing and/or Shanghai; where there are few Cantonese and for the communist period till now; they don't seem to have any adverse thinking towards the number "4". This is why; I call the number "4" pretty subjective number. However, in the Far East; where supersititions strive and there is a large pool of Cantonese speaking Chinese; even in your country, Singapore, Malaysia; number "4" ain't so good a number. Hope you know what I mean...

Frankly, in my opinion; these are some of the considerations: 1. There are/could/may be many variables related to your question. 2. First and foremost is also "culture". Although I believe India is trying to abolish the caste system; it is still widespread. Most likely this is not the issue, here. 3. Correct me if I am wrong; as I have heard / seen documentaries of how some Indian husbands / family (treat or even mistreat) their wifes or worse... 4. Thus; this is one major aspect that may / can / would affect the outcome. 5. Given that in the Indian culture; there are many Astrologers that "perform" the same tasks as Chinese Geomancers; if you want to go on this route; t…

Ponder over this: MALE, HOUSEMAKER; WIFE = SUCCESSFUL BUSINESS PERSON OR HIGHLY SUCCESSFUL IN HER CAREER If your home has TWO stoves in a similar situation; take extra care! Your partner (spouse) may instead be the one to have HER - LOVER! Hahahaha! Think about it! Flower of Romance, can/may/could be REVERSED!

Frankly, as explained; in my previous message. One has to be realistic... I don't get to see your layout nor working.. and I have already shared the "best practise" technique.(In addition; it is implied that the compass readings and even the flying star chart = is correct).

Frankly, take a simple flow chart: 1. Either one goes to a geomancer. In this case, you should follow-up with your geomancer and ask him to find the leaks for you. or 2. DIY. For DIY, I have provided you some of the good practises. However, I can understand, many of us; simply are too impatient, here as there are lots and lots of things to take note. And the fact that if one don't even know how to find the leaks; Please refer to Para 1. 3. In the earlier, link; the fact is thateven allgeomancers needs to go thru the "Triage" to find out what are the leaks. A link which I posted earlier mentions this.

Thanks Cecil, Frankly I also caught it by surprise at the shop and the bed layout fits very well to tap my boys best direction. The elder sleeping pointing to the west (below bed) and the youngest onto sleeping facing to the south, on the left and both have a strong support of the wall. And it save space too. The table below also good for my elder boy facing the west. Guess nothing is always perfect. Will hunt for the normal type instead. Hope this is good layout for discussion.

These are some considerations:- 1. It is NICE-to have and not a MUST-have to have even number of hobs. 2. TECHNICALLY a stove = Yang (Fire element). Yang is also represented by ODD numbers : 1, 3, 5 da da da di di di.... 3. The idea is that it is good to have a harmony of Yin and Yang. If the entire stove = Yang; then again technically; 2 or 4 hobs are PREFERRED since 2 or 4 = ??? Got it?

These are some considerations: 1. In my opinion, what you are trying to practise is in my knowledge simply called "Pseudo-Fung SWAY". Or simply "deceptive Fung-the-Sway. 2. It is akin to taking a sugar coated pill and later on feeling good about it. 3. Actually the main purpose of finding the correct "frontage" which many automatically assume is the main entrance. 4. Purpose of finding the main frontage is for the purpose of working out the "correct" Flying Star chart. 5. As for suitability of the home; it is often mere deception or Pseudo-Fung the Sway that if we can change to our best direction; don't you think for some feel "damn" good about it? 6. This exegeration of …

1. My most recentSuunto compass is the model: Suunto KB-14/360 PTI COMPASS ZO for REGION 3. http://forum.geomancy.net/phpforum/article.php?bid=2&fid=6&mid=27494&new 2. However, it has been with more for around 3 to 4 years. Costs around I forgot approximately SGP $260 thereabouts. 3. I bought it at Far East Plaza (basement).

Make sure that to check out the above link where the back aluminium face-plate has been stamped with a Number : #3 = region THREE for Singapore use. For other countries, there is a correction markings also on the back for declination deviations. 5. Below has a link to my older plastic b…

1. Feng Shui is a holistic approach and it is about maximising a home's qi. 2. No; practise the Heaven side is located at NW and not at North.

These are some considerations:- 1. I would agree if the logic was because if one has a narrow or small living room, such an L-shaped sofa may not go well with the interior decor, that is all. 2. A sofa is always low height and I don't see the logic that it may result in an in-balance due to = sharp corner. 3. If one says that then, logically; rectangular dining tables or even squarish rectangular coffee table (if one buys the above argument implies that these are greater threats. 4. In Singapore, in my opinion, I often encounter modern homes with l-shaped sofas. At least 3 out of ten homes have them as this is like a lazy bed in thr living room.

1. The clue here is that the Chinese Luck system is a holistic approach. 2. Thus, any person (human being)or thing (house) that has a birth-date should be considered. 3. Thus as a human being has a date of birth, I am sure a home also has especially it's date of completion where a Temporary Occupational Permit (TOP) has to be given. 4. The location where the partition has to be investigated. For example, for the home, a Flying Star chart should be constructed to determine whether a water position is suitable say at the main entrance area OR NOT. 5. Similiarly, the difference between bogus Feng Shui and authethic Feng Shui is that Ba Zi has to be factored in. Ba zi when us…

1. Leaving old bed frame: has been done before 2. 2walls: really your call. If one applies Compass school; then it is a different story altogether as one can analyze which of the two is better and who sleeps; where. Under the current situation; you may have to go with personal feel.

These are some considerations: 1. In the past, careers were straight-forward. For example, a butcher is a butcher, a merchant is a merchant etc... 2. Nowadays, with both multi-skilling and management studies like strategic planning; Professor Porter's Five Forces to evaluate an industry and core-skills; things have become complicated. 3. In addition, it is often "complicated" by education and education system. 4. For example, in Singapore; our education system in the past, in my opinion is still more of reguritation of facts or reproducing them. And not very good for innovation. 5. And the majority would rely on their education certificate: for example, an accountant woul…

Please note that I mentioned that it is nice-to and not a must-have to sleep with the head facing a good direction. Another consideration is which sector is the bedroom, in. If would be even better if the sector the bedroom in is in your favourable sector. In reality, it is not like you have another bedroom to sleep in, right?

These are further considerations: 1. It depends on the compass sector of the kitchen 2. The stove should often sit facing the female (wife's) favourable direction). 3. Frankly, a few lines of text can't do justice. 4. However, all I know from you isyousaid "the kitchen stove was facing a little of the kitchen door," and the threat that it will cause your earnings to be lesser than 50% on it's own merits is a blatant threat and one of the dirtiest tricks in the name of Fung Sway. 5. There are scientifc ways in the name of Feng Shui to assess such a situation. And it can't help that you keep on wanting to "squeeze out" information; where what you wrote were simple lines of …
