In this case, the loft bed is placed closer to the window. Airflow toward the head of the bed depends on how the windows open. Many modern apartments have windows that only open from the side. If the window is beside the head of the bed, some Asian children may feel uncomfortable because strong winds can blow directly onto their bed. Therefore, it is important to consider the placement of windows, the presence of full or partial walls, and the location of bedroom doors.

Common sense says that it is good to have space below the bed. So that one can easily clean below the bed.

Dear Marilyn, marilyn o wrote: I dont really understand what the table means. Like Self and Spouse is Rabbit Metal. Does that mean something? Or on the earthly branch yin yang Wood column, there is Intelligence,Earned Wealth does mean something? The chart I extracted for you was simply to show you some of the combinations that occured and thus why your five element is like that. Which I included just to explain my previous point on why your percentage is like that. Those information like the relationship (self & spouse), can tell you about general relationship with your various family members. While ten deities can tell you about given characteristics. I do not exp…

Dear Jason, Jason Nah wrote: Can anyone advise me where to get good and cheaper Compass for Feng Shui purpose in Singapore ? Why not try some of the shop selling sports or mountain tracking equipments. There are still lots of other brands no need to get Suunto. Generally, as long as the compass is fairly bignot the small size compass (iegreater than 50 cents coin and not 20 centscoin type). Should be ok. Better ones, tend to be enclosed insome anti-magnetic casing which helps to reduce magnetic influence.So far most of the compass used for trekking should be fine. The only thing is just make sure you take a reading…

Dear Sophia, 1. Honestly, this really depends on how you define Qi flow and the context you are using it in. 2. For houses, we usually talk about Qi flowing into the home. For example, if your living room frontage faces East. 3. Will Qi, or air, flow in from the West towards the East? So wouldn’t you prefer good Qi from the East to flow into your home, instead of bad Qi coming in from the West? 4. That’s why, on our website, when we define the facing direction, we focus on where good Qi can flow into the house, rather than allowing bad Qi to enter. 5. The other concept is more commonly used in Yin Feng Shui, where you want a strong amount of good …

Further to what I had mentioned, below, please click on the attachment to thismessage (only available via website login to the forum account). Example 1 (file name: water-entry-exitpoint-A.gif) This file illustraion will show:- 1. House is facing SOUTH 2. Water enters this SOUTH facing housedirectly from SOUTH. 3. Water must not exit out of this house from NW (The idea here is tomake sure that under the First Heaven Sequence Trigram, the waterentering a specific trigram must be noted. For example the trigram stands for "HEAVEN". Under the 2nd Heaven Sequenc Trigram, check where the "HEAVEN" trigram lands. It lands on NW. Thus water should notEXIT NW) Example 2:…

Dear Alex, 1. In fact, if one does a research or a key SEARCH in this forum (even as far back as 1999), there are lots of resources on the topic of fish tank or keeping fishes. 2. Please click this link to have a better understanding of fish tank & keeping fishes from a Feng Shui perspective:- http://www.geomancy.net/resources/art/arowanafish.htm 3. It is good to review Q2 in the above hyperlink to understand the real relationship between the Five Elements Concept to a water position i.e. be it a fish tank or a water feature. 4. Key extracts from the above article are as follows:- " ...We can introduce the following elements:" …

1. Please see this illustration. 2. This partition is long and covers the entire main entrance door. 3. In addition, it is full height up to the entire ceiling of the house. 3.1. As mentioned in some of the earlier threads; full height and especially now that it is "air-tight" means that light from the living room cannot filter to the main door. Thus generally, making the foyer area dim. 3.2. Another thing I would like to highlight with this "air-tight" partition is that often for safety reasons; those sitting at the sofa area will not see who is coming in or if a family member is at the main door talking to a person or stranger. 3.3. Personally, I would still prefe…

Dear Anon, More importantly, the consideration should be, for instance, either standing inside the home, such as at the main entrance or sliding doors, while looking out of the home. If one stands inside, for example, at the main entrance looking out and can see a lamp post or a tree, then this is regarded as sha qi, as it can penetrate into the home. However, if there is a solid wall (within the house) where the lamp post is located, then this is generally not considered sha qi. Planting plants that have a relatively dense cluster of foliage would be beneficial if the lamp post is directly visible when standing at the main door or sliding doors, etc. …

Dear Veronica, 1. Regardless of the situation, it is essential for an air conditioner to have the most direct path to two key areas: 1.1. the outdoor compressor unit or the balcony where the compressor is located 1.2. a route to channel condensed water to the nearest bathroom for drainage 2. Choosing the shortest route is advisable because, over time (typically 2 years or more, depending on usage and environment), the air conditioner’s drainage pipes can become blocked by dust, similar to how arteries can become clogged. 3. A shorter route also means less piping is needed for both the refrigerant gas and the drainage. 4. From a Feng Shui pers…

Dear Anon, 1. Often, when coins are used, it is based on the number of coins. 2. I am not sure if there is any `commercial' agenda; but majority of the coins that we buy are often imitation coins or newly minted coins that seem to look like `antique' coins. (Don't be fooled by the greenish colour on these copper coins as it is very easy to `age' the coins) 3. The usual number for a big metal cure are a set of 6 emperor coins each. 3.1. Previously before the internet age, many shops were selling 5 coins. Perhaps their knowledge was essentially that of the popular Five Elements concept of Earth, Metal, Water, Wood and Fire. 3.2. But today, …

Dear Tammy, 1. For the benefit of other forum members, I have attached the illustration of two trapezoids. This file name is: trapeziod-goodbad.gif 2. One trapeziod is acceptable while the other is inauspicious. 3. This is based on Shapes and Forms Feng Shui. 4. More importantly, if one looks carefully at the first trapezoid with blue wordings, or the acceptable shape; One will find that the based is broader than the frontage. This is symbolic of a mountain effect. Even if a trapezoid shape is not the best configuration. 5. For the second trapezoid, the is the mirror image of the first. And it is considered inauspicious if the front is broad base while the back (mountain)…

Dear Carpazia, Building on what I shared earlier, we can look at the Eight House Theory from another angle by asking ourselves a few simple questions: 1. How suitable is the house for the breadwinner? If the main entrance lies in the breadwinner’s “death or disaster intangible force,” then this house is considered the least suitable for the breadwinner. 2. If the house is most unsuitable for the breadwinner, what does that mean? It means that, in general, the breadwinner is unlikely to experience a significant “quantum leap” in Feng Shui. However, if the Shapes and Form of the house are excellent (or even exceptionally excellent), this can still cre…

Previously I took some time to compile a list of calendar events of Chinese festivals: http://www.geomancy.net/calendar/ And list of Major and Minor Chinese Festivals. Some of us, use this information to choose `auspicious' dates. For example, on 16 October 2000, it is the Celebration of " Chinese Goddess of Mercy becoming a Bodhisttva ". This is another method of finding a good date. In addition, I made the effort to compile the extensive list of calendar of events is to share with fellow overseas Chinese, the significance of certain dates and providing a brief description of the event. This is a way of looking at our `roots'. Warmest Regards, Cecil

Dear Anon, 1. Please email to : robert-lee@geomancy.net for a Flying Star credit. 2. You can try to use the Flying Star suggestions in the report to neutralise any bad sectors. More importantly, it is best for you to do some `leg work' by using the compass to locate the direction and generate a report. 3. Do check the report closely, for such things as Eight-One Combination Explanation [9] & [3] - Lawsuits, gossips, disputes struggle. 4. As we are currently helping a few users who also face problems, do, try to read up the suggestions provided in our report. 5. And if you need clarifications, please let us know. 6. The Flying star, if …

Dear Anon, There are two `issues' brought up considering this. Most of the time, one should not be too unduly worried about it. The two `issues' are: 1. Some FS practitioners consider it `inauspicious' because, in the event, that a car catches fire, the bedroom is directly above it. But based on reasoning, this `risk' is neglible for most of us as a car catching fire, is rare unless it is thru mischief or other causes. 2. Some FS practitioners believe that a car, is = metal, and thus, there may be too much metal at that sector especially if there is an imbalance at that sector where either metal aids the bad #star or enhances it. A Flying Star analysis would be able to c…

Hi, There are a few `variables' with regards to the placement of the `White Tiger picture". 1. Some Feng Shui practioners say that it is generally auspicious to place a White Tiger picture at the West Wall if this is your inauspicious location e.g. under the Eight House. 2. In most books, the Chinese are " afraid " or scared to see a real White Tiger is they believe that it will bring them bad luck. This has correlation to their understanding that it is very unlucky to give birth to a child especially a girl born in the " Tiger " year. For example, under this URL: http://www.geomancy.net/love/amenu1.htm I have this short write up of " The Gate of Hope, Singapore " (Former…

Hi everyone, A beginner interested in Fengshui here, looking to seek some guidance on determining a unit's direction facing using a BTO site plan layout. I understand that there is the North needle at the bottom of the layout, but how do I actually determine the direction? Things like sitting and facing? I am keen in checking the direction of stack 629. Would greatly appreciate your guidance! 🙏
