Dear Anon, 1. Under one aspect of house suitability using Ba Zi Feng Shui; if the house is considered a " Wood house " by virtue that the main entrance is facing say East or South East. And one member (especially the breadwinner) is a Strong Earth person; in this situation: 2. Under the Five Elements Concept: 2.1 A `WOOD' HOUSE vs `STRONG' EARTH PERSON Good Match. The wood house is considered favourable as it helps to "control" or help (aid) a Strong Earth person. 2.2 A `WOOD' HOUSE vs `WEAK' EARTH PERSON Inauspicious. As wood will further weaken a Weak Earth Person. 3. The above is one of the many aspects we look at the relationship between Ba Zi (Pillars of Destiny usin…

Hi Shi Fu I am looking for a new place and I chanced upon this unit whose door faces the mirrored lift door directly (please refer to the picture below). To be frank I have heard that such units will bring misfortune and ill luck for the person that resides there but I wanted to know if this is true. If it is indeed true, what are the ways that this can be counteracted?

Dear Lisa, This is the " tricky " part in Feng Shui. Under the Compass School of Feng Shui especially the Flying Star theory, the traditional method is to find or locate the `exact' compass degree of the main entrance. Once you have determined the exact compass degree, you then relate it to the `birth date' of the house or if a major renovation has been done, relate it to this. Next, a chart based on the `birth date' of the house and the direction of the main entrance door is drawn based on Flying Star calculations. You will notice that the above is the first step. Once all the flying stars have plotted, next you analyse the house based on the locations and an…

Dear Anon, Anonymous wrote: Please help. My new home (location and direction)was picked by a builder. It faces Southwest. My kitchen is the most northeast. My bedrooms are northwest.

You will need to check out using some of the free tools on the website, whether the facing of the home South-West is this a good direction for the breadwinner (person earning most to sustain the family mostly in a family the husband for example). So for example, if you check your date of birth for the breadwinnerand South-West is Excellent, then this house direction is suitable to you and thus,…

Dear Anon, 1. I am not sure if this is a `consolation'. 2. Many new condominums, have units (frontage) facing swimming pools. Sometimes, this can be quite noisy, but, to some practitioners, it may imply `activity', which may be good. While others may consider it bad. 3. The best consolation is based on the fact that during Chinese New Year, the letting off of `firecrackers' create noise and this act "was" (nowadays banned in many countries) said to `scare away evil or bad luck'. 4. *JOKE -start-* If noise can `irritate' us, it will most likely `irritate' (if there are any) non-humans. *JOKE -end-* Warmest Regards, Cecil

Dear Anon, Actually, in my opinion, it depends. This is because, in Feng Shui, we often see homes on a hill. The advice here is that homes should not be on an extremely steep hillside. Often a gentler slope is preferred. In such a situation, we can imagine your question. Here, for some homes on a slope, we do notice that the opposite is true: the back of the house is higher than the front. Usually, in my opinion, it has more to do with the design of the home. The reason why it is very important in Flying Star Feng Shui to find out where the facing and sitting directions are has to do with how best we can tap beneficial qi into the home. In a few…

Dear David, Thanks for the sketch. 1. For the lamp post, since it is at the edge or perimeter of your unit, it does not seem to be a threat. 2. For the cluster of thin trees, this is OK. 3. But for the single tree, it poses a threat. Fortunately, since it is only on one side, overlooking one glass panel, it is simple to “correct.” Most of us use curtains, and often the curtains can be drawn just enough to block the view of this lone tree. Warmest Regards, Cecil

Dear Mr Ng, 1. Based on the information provided, I have prepared a Flying Star (Xuan Kong) chart for your home. 2. These are my findings: 2.1 In addition to what was mentioned earlier, the Flying Star chart for your home also shows another “leak” related to the time dimension. 2.2 Under your current Period 7 Flying Star chart, you have a mountain star #5 at the front of your home. This is associated with loss of money and misfortune. 2.3 Based on this Period 7 chart, it is not advisable to activate any water features in your living room or balcony area, as most of the recommended cures for this home are not from the water element. 3. For your hom…

Dear Ingrida, In most cases, I personally feel that it is not advisable to have a mirror facing the bedroom door, for two reasons: 1. A mirror may be a double-edged sword. Without proper investigation, we do not know whether it is placed in a good, bad, or inauspicious sector. If it is an inauspicious sector, it is believed that the mirror can reflect and double the bad luck. 2. This is also based on a common belief. When we ask most Feng Shui practitioners, the consistent answer is that it is bad to have a mirror facing any part of the bed. It is believed that when a person sleeps, his spirit leaves the body. What about a mirror facing the bedroom do…

Dear Sissie, In the traditional Feng Shui practice of using mirrors: 1. If one seeks a consultation, especially from a Western traditional school of Feng Shui in countries such as the US or Canada, in my opinion these practitioners would usually say that Ba Gua mirrors, or even mirrors in general, are “hocus pocus.” 2. Therefore, I am aware that such Western schools do not believe in the use of Ba Gua mirrors, even if the practitioners themselves are ethnically Chinese. 3. The distinction, however, is that although they are Chinese in origin, because of their cultural background—being born and raised entirely, or mostly, in the West—they do not face th…

Dear Anon, Two meters away from the centrepoint is adequate distance away from the centre. Ideally, the centrepoint should be clear space but from what you had described, since the toilet is not directly located at the centrepoint, this is a plus point. Warmest Regards, Cecil

Dear Larry, There are two ways to go about under Feng Shui: 1. By personal feel In general, if you and your family members have "positive" feel about it, I think it is good enough to place these lamps at specific locations. 2. By Flying Star Feng Shui Under Flying Star Feng Shui, in particular; sectors that for example have good "mountain" sectors or sectors that need "fire" would be suitable locations for the lamps that are lighted 24 hours. As light from the lamps represent the fire element. And any sector that lacks fire element can have such a lamp introduced to that location. While the salt lamps is conside…

Dear Joan, ? I have just e-mailed the 12 Animal Signs for Rabbit Year to the Geomancy Forum, you can look at it for a general family fortune of your family. If you require more details on the family fortune, you will need to apply the other theories such as the Pillars of Destiny Report http://www.geomancy-online.com. As the Pillars of Destiny is able to forecast the 5 yearly break down of luck pillars for 80 years of your life. Using this report information you can match the animal signs and the plus the luck pillars to determine whether it is a good year for you and your family. Warmest Regards Robert Lee

Dear Mariam, 1. It is very common to have partners with `totally opposite' good and bad directions. 2. When you look for a house, compare the layout plan with both partner's 8 house template. What you need to look out for is:- - Where possible, look out for the `Death / Disaster ' intangible forces. Try not to buy a house with these two intangible forces flowing into the Main door entrance or your bedrooms. For the main door entrance, this is particularly more important for the breadwinner. - In addition to this, areas where family members spent most time should preferably be under the influence of a good intangible force e.g. Health, Prosperity.... 3. In the worst…

Dear Stephane, From my opinion, the best Feng Shui books are not in English but in Mandarin either written by practising Masters in Taiwan or in Hong Kong. Unfortunately, one needs to know Mandarin in order to read such books. Many of such books are also not translated into English and currently many English educated Feng Shui authors are capitalising on this but many are still no `match' for the `originals' although many English speaking Feng shui authors try to make a good attempt at it. Currently I will not mention the books here but we have found fundamental flaws in the `current batch' of Feng Shui books on theories relating to Pillars of destiny and the Flying star.…

Dear Jon, The purpose of the Eight House Theory is to find a suitable house for 1. the breadwinner 2. locate suitable rooms especailly the bedroom for the wife, children and other family members. Therefore, when you look at a house, you could use a transparency and superimpose each family members good and bad directions over it. When you use the template, you can see cleary which rooms are good for which member of the family. Ideally, avoid having the death or disaster line of any family member falling within their bedroom and for the bread winner avoid having the death or disaster line flowing through it. Warmest Regards, Cecil Lee -----Original Message----- From: Listma…

Dear Luna, Currently there are two methods at looking at the number of fishes to `rear'. Method 1: ======== The most common method is based on general good numbers of fish i.e. fishes should be numbering e.g. 5, 6, 8. (9 is still acceptable). Method 2: ======== The other method is based on your kua number ie. if your kua is Li or South, you should rear 9 fishes. If your Kua number is Kan (North), you should rear 1 fish, if your Kua number is Chen or East, then you should rear 3 fishes. Ideally, this is based on the breadwinner's Kua number Conclusion ========= Frankly, the easiest method is to follow ` Method 1' especially if you have a large family and especially, the fi…

Dear Cecil, Thank you so much for taking time to reply my queries. We have considered your suggestion of shifting the bed to opposite side of the room. This may be too costly for us at the moment since on the opposite side of the room we have some fixed (built-in) wardrobe and shelves, if you have noticed from my drawing. We would have to hire carpenters to rebuild these wardrobes if we were to shift them because they were initially built with the intention of covering the unsightly almost-one-foot beam on whole stretch of this wall. In my previous e-mail, I mentioned the possibility of shifting the bed to the wall adjacent to the toilet wall, the other only available wal…
