[Move House Date]

Hi,
I am moving house before CNY, some where between end Jan and early Feb 2013. I chose 3 dates, but was looking in the almanac and found that each date clashes with one member of the house. The dates :
1. 27 Jan 13 clashes with pig.
2. 31 Jan 13 clashes with rabbit
3. 2 Feb 13 clashes with snake.
Is it possible to find a time in the day where the person who clashes on the day move in?
Or should that person move in on another day by herself or himself?
Thanks.

home.2.2. I own this home and the entire
home is rented out. Feng Shui cannot be
based on remote control If you don't
stay there, one is not affected by the
earth luck of that (rented) home.2.3.
Para 2.2 applies to your above

1. Common sense
1.1 In the past, if one has
read some of the forum
messages; from day 1, I always
ask this question first and
foremost?
1.2 Has "this" anything to do
with common sense?
1.3 Only after having explored
Para 1.2 in depth; then one
should consider other factors.
2. For example under common
sense, there are a host of
concerns:
2.1. Locally in Singapore, we
often like to use oil to fry
as well as cook spicy chilli
stuffs etc... And such spices
can filter into our nose and
mouth and make us quite
uncomfortable. And the easiest
common sense thing is that
many elderly or seasoned cooks
would often for this reason,
hope to have a kitchen that
has a door to close it when
cooking such "heavy" duty
food.
2.2. Safety concern
Nowadays, many apartments are
relatively small and compact.
And most of us love to turn on
the air con. Beside letting
air-con leak into or out thru
the kitchen; a door is
advisable.
2.2.1 The main reason is, many
homes have a corridor leading
to several bedrooms. And just
imagine if for one reason or
another, if the fire suddenly
get's extinguished; the gas
still flow and such gas could
leak into the bedrooms.
2.2.2 In Feng Shui, some say
that it is not adviseable to
have the stove directly facing
a doorway. This is again
common sense. For example, put
up your hands and tell me how
many humans have eyes behind
our heads?
2.2.2.1 Some may be cooking
and suddenly receive a tap on
the shoulder... just imagine..
some people get a fright or
shock and perhaps drop or
spill hot oil or liquid.
2.3 Frankly, there are many
other considerations....
3. Under symbolism in Feng
Shui, it is inauspicious to
have a stove / oven or sharp
objects facing a bedroom door.
As the bedroom door is akin to
the mouth of a bedroom. And if
there is a stove /oven facing
a bedroom.. under symbolism;
there is a concern of the
person in that room catching
fever or illness... while
sharp objects e.g. above a
sink facing a bedroom may
result in accidents or "cuts".
4. You brought up the concept
of "Fire at Heaven's gate"
where it is considered
inauspicious to have the stove
at NW. There are sufficient
resources on this issue.
5. Other considerations again
some are common sense
include:-
5.1. Avoid placing a stove
especially those with a hob on
a stand alone island as one
has to be careful of the wind
(high pressure and low
pressure zones) that may blow
the fire towards one's stomach
area or extinguish the fire.
5.2. Where possible a stove should not
be too "vulnerable" to areas where there
may be influenced by strong winds (wind
vortex etc...)....6. Thus, you already
mentioned the concern of a window at SW.
You have to weigh all these into
consideration.On 9/13/2012 3:41:01 PM,
