Red & White matters
Dear Paris, Paris Chee wrote: Dear Master Lee Firstly like to thank you for this website, it is most useful. Like to ask if people said in a certain year they are not supposed to attend white or red matters ie. funeral and/or wedding. How do we know when or whether we can or cannot get involved in such occasions. What will happen if one attends when one is not supposed to? If my bazi chart shows forcast that a certain day is very inauspicious, will attending wedding which is a happy event, helps to turn the inauspiciousness around? Thanking you in advance Paris Generally, if the current year that clashes with your birth year or that the curren year has a major harm with your birth year. These are usually the two types of indication that will not be good for you if your attend wedding or funerals.Anyway, this is more towards the chinese tradition and beliefs. For very very traditional family, they will avoid it like a plague. But for modern family, most do not really bother as much. So really depends on how strongly you believe. Generally, a forecast of each day, is further subjected to like whether the month is auspicious or the year is auspicious or not. So inauspicious day many still be ok if the month is auspicious. However, if the year is bad, the month is bad, and the day is bad then it is considered the worst day in the year for you. The way to improve your luck is always to ensure that you have as much favourable element to boost up your own luck. As long as you continue to have more of your favourable elements, it will reduce all these inauspicious period. It will probably not completely remove the inauspicious impact, but it can certainly minimise the impact it has over you. Hope that helps.

Please help! My sink is across my stove!
Dear Olivia, Olivia Kim wrote: I'm so thankful for your response! Since my refrigerator is on the same side (two feet away) as my stove, where may I put the mirror? Do I still place the mirror on the refridgerator to reflect both the stove only or both the sink and the stove? Mirror is better to place on the fridge (especially if it is one of those fridge magnet type) and reflect the stove can already. Since the stove is an important place, you do not want the stove energy to be clash with the fridge. So a mirror there will make the stove seem like that is fire at the fridge so will no longer clash with the fridge weakening the wealth. It is not necessary to put another mirror at the stove for a few reasons, looks funny to have a mirror at the stove and can be irritating to the person cooking there. Hope that helps.

Period 7 home
Dear Padmanabh, Padmanabh Gokhale wrote: Hello. I live in a period seven home. My home has 4 rooms and is almost rectangular in shape. In September 2004, I changed the flooring tiles of my one room ( only one room ). There was no other changes made in the house. Does this renovation make my home a period8 home? Please advice as Iam not enjoying goodtime since the beginning of period 8. My house is almost rectangular with main door facing Northeast but it is situated in the North corner of the house. This is quite similiar to another post I just replied. Usually the changing of floor tiles often is considered major renovation even if it is limited to one room only. So it is quite likely that your house luck have crossed over to a period 8 house luck. So there might besome unbalanced sectors where there might be star 2 / 5 (illness/misfortune stars) that is active and uncontrolled. Another possibility is whether this room is it located in South-West sector? If it is, you might have disturbed the Grand Duke which is another possible explanation. Last but not least, sometimes your own individual luck may have also changed to another luck period which is less favourable.Make use of some of our free tools ie the free flying star chart and ba zi analysis. Check the luck of the house in period 8 and ba zi luck see which one is likely to be the issue. Anyway, based on what you have provided, the house like has probably changed to a period 8 chart. So look out for the star 2/5 location and balance that sector. I also suspect you check your individual luck as it might also have entered into a less auspicious year etc. Hope that helps.

House Number
Dear Anon, Anonymous wrote: I bought a house in March 2005. The house was built in 1976 and the house number is 546. The previouse owners remodeled the kitchen in 2004 and I have painted the interior, replaced the bathroom vanities and re-tiled the floors,replaced one of the showers stalls, and re-carpetedthe whole house.But still, I have not been well since I have been here. My question is this: does the work I have done constitute a re-model and doesn't the re-modelyearsupercede the year built? Thank you in advance for your help. As the house is in period 6 (1964-1983), and with the work you have done, it is very likely that you have already changed the luck to probably 2004 (if you done it after the chinese new year). Usually, for such older house, any major work can easily change the luck over. This is because the luck of the house is already fading, thus any disturbance to the house will easily push it to the new period. So there are two possibilities. 1. The luck of the house has changed and there are some unbalanced sectors where there might be star 2 / 5 (illness/misfortune stars) that is active and uncontrolled. 2. As well, as not sure if you had accidentially offended the Grand Duke or Tai Sui in the year 2004 which should be in the South-West sector of the house. If any, you should determine what is the new flying star of the chart of the house in period 8 and then balance up all the inauspicious sector. ur website has the free flying star chart in the member area for you to check. Hope that helps. Warmest Regards Robert Lee GEOMANCY.NET - Center for Applied Feng Shui Research

Personal kua versus flying star elements
Dear Anon, Anonymous wrote: If my Kua number is 4 and basically a wood person, my four pillars indicated me as a yin wood. Can excessive metal that is put to control No 5 star ( Wu Huang) harm me indirectly too? Can bright lamp shade in the bedroom hurt me too? Are you are weak wood or strong wood person? the yin wood does not make you are weak wood. Please check whether you are a weak or strong wood using our free tool at this url:- URL: http://www.geomancy.net/reports/free-report/freerpt-element.htm If you are a weak wood, metal in general will weaken you further. However, if you are a Strong wood, then metal in general will actually help you control your excess Wood. Applying cures or balances to the flying star is intended to balance up the sector for the entire sector irregardless of the element of the person(s) staying or using that sector. So this must always be in place to harmonise the sector before you work to even enhancing yourself. The best way to harmonise the room is always by the choice of colour scheme in the room. Thus, painting the house in like White or off-white colour helps to automatically add Metal which can balance up the inauspicious star. After which, once you have the base room or colour in the element that neturalises the inauspicious star 2/5 (for example), then you can work to adding other colour scheme favourable to your ba zi to enhance it. As long as you do it moderately as I mentioned above, really no issue about having too much metal. Ideally, a little of every element is needed for a person to be in perfect harmony (ie 20% of each element). So even for unfavourable element, a little won't really kill you, you just want to avoid having too much. Anyway, there are so many other areas such as your career, or colour of other personal belongings, house element etc. Other area favourable element will help offset this one issue so no need to really worry too much about only 1 area. Must always look at the general overview. Hope that helps. Warmest Regards Robert Lee GEOMANCY.NET - Center for Applied Feng Shui Research

Luck Against You
Dear Rathan, rathan mandavilli wrote: My son's chart shows "Luck Against You" for a number of years. He was born on 23 November 1997 at 08:55AM. Are there any Feng Shui cures to deal with this matter, so that this can be countered? The way to improve any person's ba zi, is to ensure that he has more favourable element throughout his life. Five element can be related to colours, material, people, shapes, career etc. So for him as a Strong Wood, he will need to try to have more Fire and Metal element in his life. You can refer to this chart for some of the five element and relationship to see how you can choose favourable clothing/car/room decor colours, or career, or shapes etc. URL: http://talk.geomancy.net The more favourable element that a person has his luck will be improved. Others such as the given luck period 10-year, 5-yearly etc, will also be changing from year to year. So some years he will have better luck others less. The rest comes from his environment as explained above. Hope that helps. Warmest Regards Robert Lee GEOMANCY.NET - Center for Applied Feng Shui Research

Interpret Sleeping position frm my Floor Plan
Dear Anon, Anonymous wrote: I would like to know how to intepret the sleeping position from my floor plan . I have enclosed a copy of my floorplan for your advise. Firslty, I can see your layout plan however, as there is no North (0 degree) marker, I have really no idea whether the bedroom is in what sector of the house etc. Anonymous wrote: I have a major concern on the position of my bed .This is our first house and my fiance and I will be getting married next year. Anonymous wrote: If my guess is correct , then I will be sleeping at my worst position - West - death position ; and is also my fiance's bad position - irritation. Getting very worried. If so, how can we correct this ? From your layout plan, it seems that because of the built up cabinet, there isn't much of a choice in terms of your bed position. So in terms of the shape and form placement, that would be the only 1 position to place it. If that is the case, then probably nothing much you can do even if you have to sleep in your bad position. What you can do to reduce this problem, is ensure that you choose a colour scheme that can fit both you and your spouse ba zi. (ie the element common to both persons.) This can help reduce some of the inauspicious of the bed position. In addition, you see which side of the bed for you and your fiance should be sleeping. Ideally, each of you should be sleeping closer to the side of the bed which is more favourable to your eight house sector. Then the other party can shield the bad influence for you. As I really do not know where is the North direction on the layout, very difficult for me to tell you who should sleep where. At this point, I am only able to recommend these. The rest will really depend on the house feng shui see what else is needed to be balance up so as to create a more harmonious environment for both of you. Hope that helps.

problem house
Dear Kian Yuk, kian yuk wrote: we live in a house facing northeast(kun house), but all of us having the same Gua 9 opposing with our house. we do not know what to do or how to recognise auspicious and inauspicous directions of the house. Unfortunately, for a unsuitable house there is very little you can do to correct the suitability unless you can change your main door or facing direction. Usually, if the house falls under death or disaster for both person or at least for the breadwinner, the long term solution is to move out to a more suitable house, otherwise it is very difficult for you to enjoy the full amount of luck from the house. I know that moving out is the hardest thing as a house is not a cheap investment to just get rid of. So probably the few things you can do is to ensure that you identify whether ther are any other leaks in the home and attempt to correct whatever you can. This link contains a few key checks to check. URL: http://talk.geomancy.net Usually, if your bedroom is at least located in a better sector more favourable to you or at least the house facing is of an element favourable to your ba zi, it might help to offset some of the inauspicious aspect.

bed placement in a small bedroom with 2 windows
Dear Anon, Anonymous wrote: I have a small room with two windows one on the north side of the room and the other on the east side of the room,on the south side of the room is the bathroom and on the southwest side of the east wall is the door, according with your sofware the best position 4 the bed is west or northwest but if i place the bed on the west side i will not have a clear view to the door and i will be in front of a window. and if i place the bed on the northwest side i will not have a strong support sincepart of the bed will be under a window. i cant place my bed in the north, east, south, and southeast since they are my 4 inauspicious directions. i need help Frankly, I hope I gotten the description right, took me a while to really visualise an image in my head. But anyway, based on what you have written, the shape and form placement of the bed where you can view the door and not have the window directly behind you is much better location. In this case, you can ignore the best sleeping position. The only thing if the bed is double, then ensure you sleep closer to the side the of the bed which falls under the more favourable sector. As well as enhance the room with more favourable element to your ba zi to help offset any inauspicious influence that you are not able to resolve such as the sleeping position. Hope that helps.

House Sliced by Corner of Another House
Dear Angela, Angela Le wrote: I have a house, but unfortunately a new house is being built across from mine. I thought about putting a small concrete fence about knee or waist high in front of my yard. However, I can only do it partially because my car garage is in the front. Therefore, what can I do? Should I use a bau qua and if so, how? What about plants and where? I know I can notput a tree in front of the yard because it will block my main door, but should I put one anyway, but just away from the main door? Of course, if you can put a fence to help block the corner, that would be best. If not do what you can with the fence, and probably add a bagua mirror to deflect the Sha Qi back. You will still need the mirror whether or not the new house was built simply because the curved corner of the road is the other major sha qi that cuts into your home. So the bagua would probably be the only way to help you on this problem. Hope that helps. Warmest Regards Robert Lee GEOMANCY.NET - Center for Applied Feng Shui Research

House Number report
Dear Aileen, aileen tan wrote: After using the Free House number report provided at your website, i was rather affected by the results. I was "told" that the house number of the new flat that I had bought is unlucky. Quote: My house number is 08-222 81 Interpretation [5] & [3] - Conflict of Star 5 with Star 3. Lost of Wealth, injuries which could lead to death. Is this report 100% accurate? Does the house number really affect the feng shui of the house and the life of its owner? Can seeing a geomancer help to ward off any bad luck pertaining from the number? Husband and I are really worried. The apartment number report is to help you determine whether a house number is auspicious or not. It bases on the flying star vertical analysis. ie it is said that an apartment located on different level will each have different luck. Thus, the main goal of that analysis is simply to show whether say unit 7 compare to say unit 8, which is better. This is useful when you are hunting for a house and found a layout you like but located on different level. Then this report can be used to determine which is better. As for the interpretation, this is taken from the 81 unique interaction between the flying star to help assess each sector of the house. It will hold true only in the flying star analysis where you can actually determine the mountain and water star. For a house number, the description does not really hold true. You only need to know that this unit number is considered inauspicious compared to say a higher or lower unit in your block with the same layout as you (ie 07-222 or 06-222 might have a better orworstluck then yours). So don't need to worry to much. Whether or not your house is good or bad depends more on your external and internal feng shui of the house and not the house number. So focus on correcting or harmonising the house. Hope that helps. Warmest Regards Robert Lee GEOMANCY.NET - Center for Applied Feng Shui Research

Please help! My sink is across my stove!
Dear Olivia, Olivia Kim wrote: Please help! I am moving into an apartment in which the stove is across from the sink. The front door and bedroom are in my favorable directions and I will also be sleeping with my head pointing in a good direction...but I'm worried about that the placement of my sink and stove will cause problems for me. Is it true that if I place something green in between them that it will help. What is your expert recommendation? Frankly, in our modern society due to land space being very precious, it is inevitable that houses tend to be build that are smaller and thus, not allowing you to have much options to place them as and where you want to. Like I always mentioned, you should always correct whatever flaws that you are able to in order to offset whatever that you are not able to correct. Yes, it might seem that a stove facing a sink is inauspicious due to Water and Fire clash, but were you are not able to move it to another location, it leaves very little other thing you can do to correct it. One way to reduce the clash, is simply to put a circular mirror magnet on the fridge door so that it will reflect the Qi and reduce the clash between the stove and sink. Anyway, though stove facing sink isn't ideal, however, it isn't the worst problem to have in a home. It would be even worst, if your home is unsuitable to you etc. One must always look at the overall picture, just like taking an exam. Is the clash between the sink and stove going to hurt your overall exam score? If it is, then it is a great problem. If it is only going to reduce a few points, it is not really going to matter as much compared to a major problem. The goal is to attain maximium score by fixing all possible leaks that is present, then work on the minor leaks. As long as all the major leaks are corrected or not present, even if there are one or two flaws remaining, that wil not cause you major problems. A major problem occurs when many factors are not in your favour. Anyway, this problem can be easily corrected or reduced by placing a small circular mirror on the fridge to reflect the stove image back. Hope that helps.

colours
Dear Shawn, Shawn lim wrote: The lucky/unfavourable colours are mentioned in mostly primary colours - red, yellow, blue etc. Yes, this is because these colours are the key colours that make up the other secondary colours. Shawn lim wrote: Orange, pink (fire/earth), purple/plums, copper (reddish) and grey.I am a bit confused about the colourbrown. Some say it is earth colour while others say its wood. which is it? Frankly, for secondary colour, it is harder to define due to the fact that if the colour is lighter/darker the element can be different. Orange for example, if light orange more ie more towards like gold colour, it is made up of more Yellow (earth) than Red (Fire), so more likely Earth element or we call Earth with some Fire (ie Earth-Fire). If dark oranage more, it is made up of more Red (Fire) than Yellow (Earth) so more likely Fire element or we call Fire with some Earth (ie Fire-Earth). So same goes for the other colours you mentioned:- light purple = More blue than red (Water-Fire) dark purple = More red than blue (Fire-Water) copper (reddish) = Material is Metal, while if more dark reddish is Red, if more yellowish is Earth. light grey = Metal, dark gray = Water. So all depends on how dark or light the tone. Brown for example same thing. dark brown is Wood, light brown can be Earth. Shawn lim wrote: 2) can some colours be used to energise/activate lucky colours eg. Yes, colours is the best way to apply feng shui to enhance your individual luck or to balance up a unbalanced flying star sector. Shawn lim wrote: for a person needing earth elements can he add Red cushionsin a yellow room to further energise the earth element or wear a splash of red along with a yellow shirt. For colours, it is always best to have two or better still three colour tone. Two colour tone normally ie Metal-Water, Water-Wood, Wood-Fire, Fire-Earth, Earth-Metal. Three tone colour normally ie. Metal-Water-Wood, Water-Wood-Fire, Wood-Fire-Earth, Fire-Earth-Metal, Earth-Metal-Water etc. So as long as you do that it enhance and balance each other to create a harmonious flow. Hope that helps.

How to correct a bad sleeping position?
Dear KL lim, KL Lim wrote: Could anyone tell me howto correct/counter a bad sleeping positionif movingthe bedis not possible? In feng shui, you should correct whatever you can until they are not possible to be corrected. In your case, since it is no longer correctable, you can only attempt to enhance other areas such as the colour scheme of the room such that it favours yourself if your occupy the room alone. (ie. weak wood person, can paint the room blue=water to make yourself stronger). Of if you share a room with another person, then choose the element or colour of the decor that will fit both person. (ie. weak fire weak wood person, can paint the room in the common element Wood=green/brown). by doing so, you will enhance your ba zi luck which will help to offset the unsuitable sleeping position.

Not sure on how to read the Eight house report
Dear Maria, maria cutrona wrote: I am having a problem on how to figure out my Eight house Report? According to my Month, day, year, and time of birth, I am a West person. Now when I look into the sleeping position regarding my bedrooom, kitchen, Dining, bathrooms, Garages, laundry, and great room, it does not coordinate what I am reading. I am now in the starting stage of building a home, and I am using the feng shui method. My bedroom has been placed in the South Location, my front door Faces West, My office is located on the West area, Master bath on the SE location. Kitchen is on the East, Laundry on the NE, Formal Dining room is on the NW, and this home slopes on the South East corner so they are giving me a walk out basement. Can you tell me if this is correct on the positioning of the room? I appreciate your help. Thanks, Maria Based on your post, I would strong recommend that you get professional help to really plan and advise you as eventhough theremay be free tools on our website that you can use. It is not really easy for you to know theory has great priority over the other. The problem you probably have right now is that, based on the Ba Zi analysis, you aredetermined to be a certain element and thus the ba zielement and direction, does notseem to tally or match the Eight Houseanalysis which only determine suitability. ie. Eight House does avery simple but effective analysisusingyourYEAR of birth. And it gives you 4 good and 4 bad direction. This concept is used only in small or micro levelusage. ie.Ba Ziis more detailedwhich uses year, month, day, & time of birth. However, the direction here is more applied to larger or macro level analysis. It is hard for both theories to give you the same reading as they are analysed on different information. So because of that, of course it makes it difficult to know which to follow. And that is why priorizing which theory and what is more important will come in. Unfortunately, unless you know all the concepts and what and why they are used in detail, it is hard for most people to be able to tell what comes first and what comes next. Thus, I am not at all surprised why you have difficulty to apply. Which is why I strongly recommend that you probably get professional help to advise you rather than to work it out yourself. Hope that helps. Warmest Regards Robert Lee GEOMANCY.NET- Center for Applied Feng Shui Research

Kitchen next to the main entrance
Dear Sophia, Sophia Chia wrote: As toilet is not an ideal location next to the main entrance. If the kitchen location is next to the main entrance but there isn't toilet attached to it.. Is it okay. Generally, the reason why toilet next to the main door is the more major concern are two factors:- 1. The toilet bowl is where largest amount of waste and water leaks out of the house. 2. The toilet is also dirty and tends to have bad smell. So logically, if it is near your main door, even when guest enter into the house they will have to pass by the toilet, which isn't really that nice smell nor good. So imagine Qi enter into the house, the first thing is it is dirtied by the air from the toilet. How good is it? The kitchen is less of an issue as it is not really a dirty location, though I see where you are coming from where the kitchen as sink which might also have wealth leak. But on the other hand, the Kitchen does not just contain the sink, it also have the stove which provides for the family. So if it is located at the main door and it is a good location, you will be having not just a good house facing but a good kitchen location which symbolise wealth. So kitchen in generally cannot be compared in the same way as a toilet. As such, there is no real concern about a kitchen to be located near the front door as compared to a toilet. Hope that helps.
