Dear Linda,
Linda Cropper wrote:
I live in a house surrounded by poison arrows from the roofs of other houses nearby. Is a pa kua above the front door sufficient protection?I understand that you can aim cannons at the offending arrows. Should the cannons be inside the house or outside and should there be some sort of shield behind them if they are inside the house?Generally, any external threats (posion arrows) you may have to use ba gua to protect your house if you are not able to block it.
For example, a fence or trees that can block the poison arrow can also act as a way to prevent the sha qi. Or ifthe poison arrow from the roof cuts into your windows, then a day curtain can also help to precent most of the sha qi into the house. This would be the most friendly method to solve this problem.
If there are still potential threat cutting in the house, then like what yous aid some decorative items (cannon or dragon) can also be placed pointing to the sha qi to help eliminate the threats. However, the best would be to use more friendly methods.
In Feng Shui, if you are no longer able to see the threat, it no longer becomes a problem. If you cannot, then a bagua may have to be the only choice. If you use a bagua, then one will do to protect your frontage.
Hope that helps.

Is there something that can be done to improve / lessen the problem between the two?Firstly, though there are some clashes/harms between the chart, but they are not considered major as they are like month clashed with hour or day with hour or hour with hour. Major clash are day to day, or year to year. So this are considered minor clashes signifying some occassional conflicts.
As a weak water vs strong metal. The binding element is water element. So the more water element present in your relationship such as bedroom colour water element colours (blue/black/gray). This will help to smoothen relationship between the two of you.
Hope that helps.

My eldest brother is geting ROM one month before my chinese wedding. Will my brother ROM clash with my chinese wedding?Generally, ROM already officially recognise the marriage legally. So it is as goodas holding a traditional wedding ceremony for many people.But most still go by the traditional wedding as more important event.
However,it is advisable to keep at least 3 months - 6 months apart to ensure that the two couples do not clash each other's good luck.
If cannot be avoided, then probably the couples should not attend each other's ROM or Wedding Ceremony to avoid the good luck from being clashed away.
Hope that helps.

Hi, is it true thathome Main Hall Ceiling cannot be painted in blue? I heard people said that if it was painted in blue, it is as if we are under the water and we will have difficulty in breathing (financial stress, family problems.......eg)Generally, blue is generally water element under I-Ching concept, having water over you is like you are drowned under water. That is the general symoblic meaning. That is why for roofs of the house it is inauspicious to have blue/gray roof colour.
But ultimately, whether or not the colour is good for the room also depends a lot on the flying star luck of the area. Generally, some stars benefit from having blue colour to represent water. So generally, light pastel blue should be perfectly fine. However, dark blue may not be so idea.
However, for ceiling colours, the most netural colour is keep it white to make it look bright. Even if you want colours, choose light pastel colours should still be fine. As light pastel colours means there is a mixed of white (metal). So the colours won't be as overwhelming as dark colours.
Hope that helps.

Hi My birth element is weak water. Is it advisable to lay wooden laminates on the floor as it is unfavourable element?Generally, in any house the flooring/furnitures can usually only be tiles, wood, metaletc. So not likely to completely avoid a certain element.
You can minimise it by choosing alternatively material or adding carpets for example. More importantly, it is the colours of the overall room that will impact the luck of the room rather than just the material of the floor.
Hope that helps.

David Sim wrote:
Hi My master bedroom lies in my disaster line. Two toilets sit between my master bedroom and the centre point. Do the toilets negate the bad influence of the disaster line?Generally, your individual eight house (4 good or 4 bad) directions mainly helps to determine whether a house or bedroom sector or facing direction is favourable for you or not. So it helps you determine whether a sector is good for you to use or not.
So if the bedroom falls in your disaster sector it means that that room isn't the most suitable room for you to make use. The most suitable house would be one that most of the good sectors of the room would fall in the suitable areas. And where most of the unsuitable areas falls in less useful areas such as the toilet or storeroom or rooms you do not spend so much time. So it is more whether how much time you spend in the area that determines the impact of the unsuitable sector.
Toilet by itself does not negate any suitability issues. It does help to drain of any inauspicious influence from the bad flying stars. Say if that sector has star 2/5 (illness/misfortune stars). The toilet will help drain of the badinfluence. However, it does notdrain off your disaster influence. That sector is still your disaster sector, butbecause it is thetoilet you are unlikely to spend most your time in that area. Soyou will likely be less affected by it.
Hope that helps.

My masterbedroom is in the NW 'death direction' and my best sleeping direction is east 'prosperity direction'. Should I sleep with head facing east not withstanding the bedhead is in NW position.There is nothing much you can do about the room being your death sector unless you there is an alternative bedroom for you to sleep in that is more suitable. At least, you are sleeping in East facing position which will help to offset the death sector issue.
The other thing you can do is to ensure you boost your own ba zi luck by choosing the colour scheme favourable to your ba zi element. Of course you also need to be careful that certain elements such as Earth (bright yellow)/Fire (bright red) colours can activate the inauspiciousillness/misfortune stars in the sector. Otherwise, most coloursas long as light pastel colours should be fine.
Hope that helps.

Furthermore, it looks more like a repair or maintenance work.
Just choose a good date and time to start your renovation. At most before your renovation just knock on the floor 3 time and tell all spirits in the house you are planning to start the renovation and apologise for any inconvienced caused.

Is there a Feng Shui cure that could help me?Feng Shui is not a miracle cure for all problems. Not everything can be solved through feng shui. In this this, this is more your human luck factor.
Have you try to find out why people not listening to you? Is it because the image you project is not serious or maybe you are doing things that is not normally your friends areused to? Or the suggestion you are putting throgh is too radical for people to understand?
I means something must be done differently or your actions or way you convey the message may be different such that people are not used to. Usually in that situation, then people might not be likely to listen to you.
In any case, feng shui will not help you here.

Generally, that is why finding a house that is suitable is important before you even buy the house. Once you have bought it, it will not be possible to change it.
So you can only try to fix up any existing leaks in the house,fix andmaximise yourflying star house luck, andimprove your own ba zi luck by having more of your favourable elements. That will help to offset the unsuitability. That is about all you can do for your existing house.
If an when you do move out to a new house, then you should try to make sure the house is suitable before you buy it.
Hope that helps.

Dear Anon,
Quote:I am a bit confused with the explanation. I am 'weak water' element. Does that meant I should seek career in 'water' element?
You are a weak water, because your 6% water is destroyed by 62% earth and your 12% metal isn't enough to strengthen you.Sothat makes you require water and wood elements.
So yes, water or wood career elements are generally favourable for you. Please refer to this link for information about the five element and career:-
Your wealth element is Fire.Fire element is the element that water must destory in order to be able to control it. As a weak water, you are like only a bucket water, how are you going to be able to put out a big fire. You will need many many bucket of water to be able to put out the fire. So same principle. As a weak water you are not strong enough to destroy your fire. So you cannot benefit from it. Thus, by default until you are strong, such career should be avoided.
In fact, you will benefit more from having career in metal/water to strengthen your weak water. Only then when you encounter fire, then you will be able to benefit from it.
That is whycareer in wealth and power and authority isn't the most ideal career for weak element persons to jump in.
So as a weak water, you should surround yourself with more water in as many areas in your life. ie. your house, colours, people around you, career etc. Then when you encounter fire, you will automatically be able to benefit from it.
Hope that helps.

As for your logo, this is more a paid service to which logo is most suitable. However, if you know what element you lack from your ba zi, that colour or shape would ideally be the best for your logo especially if you are the owner of the company.
Say for example, if your ba zi is is weak wood, then water (blue/black/gray colour) would be better for you.
Or create logo that can create wealth. In a construction industry (earth), either have symoblic of creation. ie wood destory earth to create wealth. So that you can control the construction industry. Or earth destroy water. This is also another way to design a logo based on this concept.
Hope that helps.

Hello there, I'm the year of rat(1984) and my exbf is the year of monkey(1980). We broke up thursday. We been together for about two years next thursday. Why did we break up if the chinese zodiac sign says that we are the perfect match? Why? Please help. Is there any chance we will get back together?Horoscope compatibilty is only one area that considers your year of birth vs another person's year of birth.
In addition, in terms of compatibilty you need to check on thee five element compatibility, ba zi compatibility and human luck factor.
Sometimes the horoscope may be compatible, but say if one is a weak wood and the other is strong Metal. Wood and Metal clashes with each other so there will be more conflicts if there is no common binding element of water element present.
Even if your ba zi chart, if the ba zi chart between the two persons,have major clashes or many minor clashes, that will also show incompatibility between the two person. You can use the free ba zi compatibility within our member area to check on this:-
URL: http://login.geomancy.net
The finally, the human luck factor will play an important role even if the overall compatibilty is acceptable. You see in any relationship, both persons must put in equal effort to make a relationship work. If it is a one sided effort, no matter how compatible the chart maybe it will still not like work out. Also, being able to spend time with each other to develop stronger bond is what helps make or break a relationship.
That is why for us we always stress that compatibilty through checking your horoscope/five element/ba zi is just one aspect. As long as there are common binding element, and enough human effort it is possible for any relationship to last. In any, case human luck effort will form the major reason whether a relationship can last or not.
So in this case, you will have to evaluate what is wrong first in order to see if the relationship can be repaired.
Hope that helps.

insurance and secretarial work is more favorable to which elements (wood, water, fire, metal or earth?)Insurance is the art of selling financial protection. Generally, is a financial adviser. So it has to do with sales (fire) and Metal (finance).
As a weak wood, fire may exhaust your wood making it weaker while metal also destroy your wood. So not the most favourable element.
Secretarial work is more Earth as it deals with listening to your boss.
As a weak Wood, earth is your wealth. However, you will need to have more water/wood to strengthen your weak wood.

I have a very small bedroom and I can only sleep either facing north (head pointing north and feet south) or facing south (head poiting south and feet to the north). My kua number is 6. Which of these positions would be better for me?Generally, the guidelines for the bed position should be:-
1. It should not fall in the unfavourable positions based on this and should generally be placed in the best shape and form layout base on this link:-

2. Then among the best shapes and form placement of the room, you choose the one that falls closest to your best directions based on your eight house. Or at least avoid Death or Disaster facing.
Sometimes depending on the layout of the room, there isn't much alternative to placing the bed.So go by the best shapes and form placement, then followed by a suitable bed position/sleeping position.
Given you can only sleep facing North or South, then sleep with your head pointing North and feet pointing South would be the better position if possible. Provided the layout allows for this position. Otherwise, you should go by the best layout position based on shapes and form first.

Otherwise, normally it is best not to display it else it will only cause disruption.
So I have no idea why you want to display it. So no idea how to advise you on this. Generally, if it is not to help solve a sha qi it is not advisable to display it.

Thanks in advance and wish you a great day!!!Sorry, but I am afraid you have to do your own search through yahoo/google search. We do not keep track of this.
Even if you are not sure, just get a feng shui measuring tape. Often as long as the dimension fall within the auspicious segments of the measuring tape, the furnitures are deemed to be feng shui friendly. That is one way you can distinguish auspicious furniture from non-auspicious furniture.
Also, feng shui friendly furniture then to have rounded corners rather than sharp corners.

Dear Da Wang,
Da Wang wrote:
Tell me the difference in the topic title and why the calculation to other website too.Generally, there are two ways to look up an auspicious date.
1) One method is by looking up the Tong Shu.
Which is basicallyan alamac of events that is created to let you know generally how the day is in relation to the year. This is general assesment without personalising the dates to any individual.
This means that say 10 Jan is determined to be an auspicious date for wedding. This means that the date is generally it is good for wedding for everyone on this planet.
However, noteveryone will find that day good, simply becauseindividually, the day might clash with that person. That is why in addition to the Tong Shu, often you will need to check if the day is suitable to you or not through your ba zi for example. That is where the 2nd method is available to bridge add the additional personalisation needed to consider all the aspects.
2) The second method is Personalised Auspicious Dates
This means that in additional to key alamanc dates in the tong shu, one needs also to consider if the day clashes with the individual's ba zi. Then draw a balance to find a date which isn't too bad in the tong shu as well as suitable. That would be the best overall date.
However, as personalisation is added, it does not necessary follow the tong shu forecast as it is not possible. A good date in the tong shu does not necessary mean it is suitable to the ba zi. A not to bad date but is suitable to the ba zi may bring more luck to the individual.
So when you balance all these factor, you get the best overall date available to each person. That is how the personalised dates in geomancy differ from the normal tong shu.
So you normally use either one of the method. If you use method 1, then you do not use method 2. If you use method 2, then you shouldn't use method 1 anymore as the method 2 already considers the personalised aspects.
You make use of our auspicious date analysis from this link:-

Apartment (2nd-7th level) - You take the main door.
Apartment (8th level and up) - You take the living room/balcony facing or where most light enters into the house.
Landed Property - You take the facing of the entire house or where the frontage of thehouse islocated.
Given that your house is on the 19th floor, the facing direction would be your living room/balcony facing direction or where most light enters into the house. Which means your house is more a West facing house. So even though your main door is facing SE, your house is still considered a West facing house under the feng shui definition.
Generally, once you bought a house, it will be hard to change the orientiation. That is why choosing a suitable house is very important, as there is very little you can do to change the facing suitability after you bought it.
You can only try to fix up any leaks inthe house and maximise whateverluck of the house though colour scheme/furniture layout after you have bought it through a feng shui review. However, a feng shui review will not be able to change your facing or suitability aspects.

i was wondering, what does the decade luck period mean? "luck with you" and "luck against you"? what does that depend on? i noticed that it has no relation to branches or stem relationships with the 4 pillars.In your ba zi, there is this luck flow that changes every couple of years. Something like the seasons ie every 3 months there is a change in season. So in the ba zi, there is something similiar like this. A person can either be travelling in the direction when luck is with you or luck is against you.
There is a 10-yearly luck flow, and a yearly luck flow. So every few years the 10-year luck will either go with or against you. Same goes for the yearly luck.
So that is the difference. Even if a year is good, but if luck is not with you, things may not go as smoothly as a year that has luck with you but is average.
Hope that helps to clarify the matter.
