1. You can always obtain a Feng Shui ruler and use the good ruler measurements. Please note that most Feng Shui ruler has two columns. You should be using the top column (measurement) as this is meant for Yang Feng Shui or for the living. 2. Except for an altar, an altar needs to be most optimum by using the auspicious measurements that coincide with both the top and bottom measurements. Reference: http://www.geomancy.net/resources/theories/fs-ruler.htm 3. Alternatively, you can the mulitple of 17 inches for the door. Thus, the width could be 17 inches x 2 =34 inches. And the height of the door in multiples of 17 inches x ( ) = . 4. If one does a SEARCH in this forum…

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 Robert, thanks for your advice. Understand that it is best that the bed should face the bedroom door so that we can see whoever comes into the room. Can we place the bed such that is back is on the wall of the bedroom door? Why is this bad and what bad luck will it bring to the owner? Thanks.

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…

Dear Elizabeth, If the main door has two panels, you can open the side furthest away from the stairs. Placing a half door at the foot of the stairs can be done but not sure if there are any safety concerns i.e. making the stairway dark. One alternative is to place a mirror at the staircase landing (when the stair case `turns').

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 …

Dear Wasis, Often, replacing the roof tile (some) and cleaning the roof with change of the main door, should do it. Locally, in Singapore, we have a common term: "To be Kiasee"or literally translated from Hokkien term: " scared to die" and this means, it is no harm doing all three to make sure that it is nearly "full-proof" (fool-proof*) Warmest Regards, Cecil

These are some considerations: 1. Solar panels are a modern invention. 2. Thus, there are really no write-ups in the past as to whether it has positive or negative effects. 3. As many Feng Shui concepts can be looked at from a common sense approach; I tried very hard to imagine whether is there any negative effects (if any). So far there are in my opinon - none from this approach.

Dear Robert Lee Many thanks for your very prompt reply. Really appreciate it. It's make sense to me what you have said. Lately, my husband just put the corals in the filter. Maybe, that was the reason behind the death of the fish. It's original total of the fishes is ten plus a black sucker fish. Now it is nine fishes.If tofollow my husband kua number is 2 suppose to have six fishes. Now, do we have to replace one of the fish or let it be nine fishes? Thank you once again. With warmest regards Sophia Chia

Dear Linda, What you had mentioned is correct. Although the picture is of your engagement, my advise is not to hang it facing your desk as it is inauspicous to place a picture of a Catheral facing you. Warmest Regards, Cecil -----Original Message----- From: Listmanager

1. Frankly, it is difficult to visualise where the facing direction (may / could) be... 2. However, as a "rule-of-thumb" or "rule-of-law" or "rule-of-something"..... "IT DEPENDS!" 3. Usually; for macro Flying Star analysis; it is often the facing direction of the Block rather than each of the individual stack(s) assuming that the stucks are facing all sorts of directions. 4. Thus if a Geomancer has been tasked to analyse the entire site to recommend say external features such as a water position e.g. location of fountain(s); waterfalls and swimming pool; then he looks at the MACRO level e.g. the entire BLOCK or development. 5. I suspect that if you are only interested in …

Dear Jason, Usually, it would depend greatly on your personal Ba Zi i.e. the position of the main entrance door rather than the position of the garage whether it be at the left or right side. As this changes totally the main door direction. If you like to consider, there is a specific report that we have specifically tailormade to look at Good Houses. This is the Paid Good House Report. And it analyses all 24 directions = 360 degrees and specific to e.g. the breadwinner. In my opinion, this is a worthwhile consideration and the direction of the main door can be an advantage for a new house/and for the owner. Warmest Regards, Cecil Lee

Dear Jez, It is difficult to deduce that your luck has changed because you are away from home and staying at your friends place that may have resulted in `losing' some money. This is because there are a few Feng Shui or Feng Shui related tools that need to be `analysed' in relation to yourself. This can be quite complex as it may involve:- 1. On certain days, our `luck' changes based on your personal main element and its strength (Pillars of Destiny) 2. Your friend's house ch'i influence on you. 3. Other factors e.g. Casion's payout rate in relation to winnings (is usually weighed against the player) In addition to the above, there can be more variables that can add to th…

Dear Anon, A statute of a galloping horse is often placed facing the main entrance. Here, this symbolises either: 1. Frequent travels e.g. for work or leisure 2. Horses running out of the home or office to get more business. Under the Chinese zodiac sign, the horse element represents the fire element. Thus it is on the opposite side of the Rat element. Reference: http://www.lovesigns.net In ancient times, a movement of a group of 8 horses running was suppose to represent a famous 10 century Chinese King. Under Flying star Feng Shui, if there is a mountain star #9 and say this is the living room area or an area where it looks nice to display the 3 red horses, this …

You wrote: "Just to answer some of your questions: This is a side door not located in front or the facing direction. I understand the bathroom is in a bad sector (flying stars 2 & 5). The sewerage pipe of the toilet is not directly above the door. The door is above a basin (for washing hands/face) and the connected water pipe. As this part of house is under construction, If it is not Ok , then I will move the door but this will reduce the size of the next room much smaller." In my opinion, one consolation is that it is located at a sector with bad stars #2 & #5. This is in a way considered as a plus point. I believe, a higher percentage has more to do with "leak…

Hi Cecil I have to install an ancestor altar table but I realise those ready made are higher than my existing table. I saw the fengshui ruler for yin. My current Guan Yin table height is 126cm with side wings but actual height is 115cm. I need to custom made a table lower than 117cm. Is 112cm ideal for ancestor table or should be be same height as 117cm. Appreciate your advise. Thank you.

Part II: 20-Year Reigning Period: 8 (2004-2023) Block direction: S3 (195) Compass direction: 187.5 to 202.4 For units along 20, 19, 24, 23 and 28 and 27 and should it qualify for the above, can also be equally auspicious. Since, under Period 8, where these homes will be Period 8 homes: under this Flying star Feng shui, S3: mountain star is = #8 water star = #8 with base = 3 Implication: [8] & [8] - Prosperity, good wealth. Therefore, considered very auspicious under Period 8. For a #8 with #8 and base 3, facing the water position, do allow for clear space e.g. such as the balcony facing virtual water (clear space). For units that qualify under this area, DO not b…

Dear Gwen Bui, Thank you for your layout plan. Please see below:- Please see attached illustration with the Shape of your house. So far, the Shape looks rectangular. The main concern is the toilet at the frontage of the house. And this is where, you should not make the garage door as your symbolic main entrance door. In my opinion, your two-sided stairway does not seem to pose any major problems since there is a lift landing upstairs. A two-sided stairway is in my opinion, very inauspicious if it is at the frontage of the house. Where, the two sets of steps join /meet together to the main entrance door. Also, from the layout plan, the front side of the stairwa…

Dear Cecil, What do you think about the birth time of the house? Does the house belong to periode 6 or 7? Btw, we have red pavement in the frontage (North). In fact, the majority of the frontage is red colored. Does it matter? Thanks in advance.

Hi, House numbers belong to another category called Numerlogy. Frankly, the reason why in my opinion, I prefer to stick to Feng Shui is because in many places, numbers can mean different things. For example, the Cantonese (a dialect) group of Chinese say that no. 4 means = die. This is because in their dialect, the pronuciation of 4 is `say' or `die'. To them, they thus find the number inauspicious. While to them no. 8 mean `fart' or `prosperity'. Where else, in `English' astrology, they have the Four elements and some practioners find number 4 to be auspicious. Under the Flying Star Theory of Feng Shui, the worst numbers to avoid are like what you mention no. 2 or the s…

Dear Cecil, Thanks so much for your replies. It makes me feel much better, specially because I felt a bit silly about the whole thing. As regards your queries, I am posting a few details here: * A little about this house: It consists of two flats side by side on the first floor. Each has a hall, kitchen and a bedroom. The flat numbers are 101 and 102. The main entrance is the door of flat 102, which is NE facing. A numerologist we know advised us to keep the NE direction because as per Hindu astrology, it is auspicious. He also said the number ?102?which adds up to a 3 is not good and so asked us to write it as ?102B? for a more favourable number 5. (Actually the original…

You wrote: "If one's maternal grandmother pass away, does the wedding need to be conducted within 100 days or postpones to 3 years later?" Yes, this is by-right (or considered "politically correct" statement). Or "should be the case". You also wrote: "I have checked various sources which mostly mentioned these only affected to one's parents, only a few mentioned that this taboo affected to grandparents as well." Again, there is no hard or fast rule. Nowadays; some are quite lax with the interpretation; especially in the context thatthat specific grandmother(was) not staying with them. Thus take it as more "distant". But traditionally; yourfirst statement shouldbe the corr…
