Please refer to attachment. 1. In my opinion consideration various factors like fan coil unit etc.... 1.1. So far the best choice is marking "A". Provided the Sound system speakers or Hi Fi or TV is not next to the altar. (Next often means best to give around 1 metre distance from such sources. As it is "in-polite" to have the speakers barring away music or sound next to the altar. 1.2. Other "last resort choices include" marking B or C. But, make sure that there is no direct sun-light that shines towards the altar. Or again, the sound system, hi fi or TV is not ext to the altar. 1.3. Never place the altar anywhere along zone marking "X" as this wall is sharing the same wall as the toilet. 1.4. Never place the altar directly below the FCU. Thus if the FCU is not in the way, and there is no open window between the sink and the outer-wall; again the last (last) resort may / could be marking "Y". However, if altar is at this location, it is crucial that the height of the altar table top must be at 49 3/4 inches (plus minus) if it is facing the dining table. 1.5. Avoid placing altar at marking "Z".

To take this bicycle, it is actually more efficient to cut through the entire railing rather than to individually remove the various (numerous) locks.

Don't worry, one thing is for sure, it definitely does not refer to one's LIFE SPAN-

When a car stalled and cannot start; where do we sent the car to? [A.] Car accessories shop to change the stereo system [B.] Car workshop to have the problem diagnosed and fixed [C.] Pray hard for a miracle cure Would you believe; however, some choose [A.], instead.

Feng Shui is also about common sense. Often, there is no perfection in Feng Shui. Most of the concepts should be considered as "NICE-to" and not a "MUST-have" Reference: http://forum.geomancy.net/phpforum/article.php?bid=2&fid=29&mid=26329&new=

These are some considerations: 1. It is a plus point under Flying Star Feng Shui to spent time at a good sector. 2. Especially if the sector has double #8's this is considered a very good sector if one spents time or doing activity as what you enjoy best. 3. In fact, Para 2, will place one in good stead based on Flying Star Feng Shui. 4. However, the other portion where you wrote to face North is SECONDARY. 4.1. What it means is that of course it is nice to face WEST or Westerly directions for you. But, this should be considered as "NICE-to" and not a must. 4.2. This brings to another key ingredient: "SHAPES DETERMINE THE FORMS AND THE FORMS DETERMINE THE STARS". 5. Here, one critical aspect under Shapes and Forms is the lighting or glare or rather prolonged glare. 5.1. In you situation, already the plus point is that the sector has double #8's. 5.2. Based on Shapes and Forms, the key ingredient is comfort e.g. comfort for the eyes. No point forcing one to face the glare e.g. a west group person may be 'forced" to face glare from the afternoon sun. 5.3. Facing prolonged glare is bad for productivity the eyes and health (some may get frequent headache). 6. Thus in my opinion, based on common sense, face away from the sun. Therefore, North facing even for a West group person is in my opinion fine with me. In fact, this is encouraged if the light comes from the "back" then from one's front (eyes). 7. It is the same concept in Shapes and Forms Feng Shui. And in the past, I mentioned, for west group persons, don't force yourself studying or working facing west. As often, if one's work area is close to the windows and if the windows don't have uv-protection, some races are more prone to skin cancer of sorts.

Feng Shui Emporium & Stores will try to sell you anything in the NAME of Fung Sway! In this instance, they could become rather imaginative and sell the Pi Yao based on RACE classification. Since us Chinese have YELLOW skin, guess what colour of Pi Yao should we purchase? Of course those yellowish as in Copper Pi Yao's. For Chinese who suntan alot; then recommended to purchase the slightly tan look Pi Yao i.e. the Bronze ones.... If you are endowed with grey hair, then even the Silver Pi yao is suitable. Got it, get it? When the buying stops, the selling can! In my opinion, since all theses are modern commercial products in the name of Fung Sway, it really don't make any difference. However, some sellers would make you believe the importance of such products may use the strategy of "wow" by asking you or finding out your personal element. Thus to "wow" you in it's authencity; some of these sellers may say that since you are a weak wood person, and if the jade is green, it represents the wood element. For example if you are a weak water person, the same joker salesperson would recommend that the metal (brass) one is better. All in the name of cock and bull Fung Sway. And certainly not real Feng Shui. On 6/2/2012 2:07:24 AM, John Do wrote: Is there a difference between these Pi Yao? I was told to get a pair of copper Pi Yao. I can only find bass and jade Pi Yao.

The hour of one's birth will affect a person's "House of Life" or simply: good life or bad or average.

These are TWO major considerations: A. Chinese customs and beliefs. B. Feng Shui 1. Under Chinese customs and beliefs: never move the current "marital" bed while pregnant or usually before one month after the 1st lunar month of giving birth. 2. However, if you no longer enter into that bedroom e.g. fly off to KL and never step foot back to your existing marital bed. 2.1 Then, after you had left the home, so long as you don't go back to see the bedroom with that bed; it is still considered acceptable. 2.2 Thus, if you completely left the bedroom; whatever is done to the existing bed is often considered a non-issue. 3. This is equally common. For example, often, a family stays with e.g. their in-laws. And when their home is ready; and wife pregnant, often, they would purchase a new bed for their new home. 3.1. Here, once the bed has been set properly, when she (wife) sleeps on that new bed; it is nice-not to move the (new) bed for whatever reason. 4. You mentioned Feng Shui. Like any other Feng Shui audits, it has to do with things like Flying Stars and concern of #5 misfortune / sickness and /or #2 sickness etc.... So this Feng Shui thing is a totally different area from Chinese customs and beliefs.

To many of us, this sign reminds us of a chopper bicycle (handle) or simply a bicycle. However, this person is rather creative and came up with another meaning for this signage! Like the most recent By-Elections. Where the opposition (Workers Party) mentioned that unfortunately, today's Men-In-White only knows: White or Black. But they (WP wears BLUE!) Erh.. MIW... you should ponder over this.... Cheers!

1. Drawing a parallel with the Titanic which sank. 1.1. Titanic had been designed to stay afloat with FOUR flooded compartments but not more. 1.2. When Titanic had a glancing blow with an iceberg; this buckled her right side = starboard. This caused a total of five out of her sixteen compartments to be flooded. 2. Often each home also can withstand a certain number of "flooding" of her compartments. Often, if there are around 3 rooms that have flooded; this home similar to the titanic will inevitable sink. 3. Thus all the material things that one try to enhance this home will literally sink with the home! 4. The main situation is to try to identify and fix as many (major) leaks as possible before it is too late! When the buying STOPS!, the selling CAN!

As mentioned, previously in general: Based purely on Shapes and Forms Feng Shui, the current bed-head position is still acceptable. Many master bedrooms do have attached bathroom. And many instances where the bed is "beside" the toilet. This is as mentioned, quite common. Again based on Shapes and Forms, there are others who do place the bed at the computer place. Again, still valid.

In my opinion, you have to DIY. No point providing raw data: someone has to take much time to digest, prepare and analyse. Frankly, you have to DIY.

One advice is that what you mentioned is based on a broad overall 10 year luck period. What one should instead look at that year. For example in 2012, one can look up the luck period for say the 1st 6th months and the last six months. See attachment.

These are some considerations: 1. Assuming that you are a Male 2. Hour of Birth is not an issue 3. Yes, Ba zi is based on one's DAY of birth. Thus, in the attachment, you are considered as a Wood element person born on a Wood DAY. 4. What you referred to is the very basic; i.e. "earth" YEAR.

1. You have simply taken the wrong short-cut. 2. And perhaps, can and may continue to fall into the trap laid by the sellers of commercial products in-the-name-of Feng Shui. 3. If one has a problem in modern times, we go and see a proper doctor. Here, it is like going to see a quack voodo-master. 4. Unfortunately, it is a fact of life. Many modern cars today are sophisticated. And if there is (are) problems with the car, you may have to bring it to the Authorised Agent or a car workshop. Few can ever DIY problems with a car. 5. Same here, either you jolly well by hook or crook DIY your Feng Shui problems or refer to Para 4, above. 6. Forums like this one, can only point you or provide general advice and perhaps try to point you to certain facts, fallacies and temptations.

In a similar vein; you wrote "purchased a wall hanging of Tsai Shen Yeh ( he is placed facing the main entrance) underneath him we have 2 chinese unicorns facing the entrance. " In the attachment, your ship (HOME) has leaks in the hull and perhaps, some of the leaks are below the water-line. Instead of fixing the leaks, instead, you have fallen into the Feng Shui emporium type of trap and try to "beautify" your home with useless products. What you should have done is to find (locate)the LEAKS and fix them, permanently. Anyway, you are not alone. This mistake is being repeated by many. When having problems, instead, drown oneself with food and more foodies...

Please refer to the attachment. The LEFT side of the table is based on a holistic approach to Feng Shui. Not even one single bit of this area is covered by you. However, your current cures and actions lean towards the RED zone or the FAR RIGHT side of the table. And the title is simply called "BULLSHIT" Yet, somehow, you hope to find a magic cure, just like that? This is Utopian.

If you still intend to rely or depend on Feng Shui, then frankly, there is really no point to describe the home. What matters is thatFeng Shui is a holistic approach and involves many concepts and applications. In addition, if you really want to DIY, then what you wrote : "We have plants and windchimes and windows and buddhas and water fountains everywhere." is disturbing. Here, under this link; you are also one of those who when your "car" has a problem, you don't go to a workshop to get it DIAGNOSED and FIXED. Instead, you share the same fate and go to a Car Accessories Shop (Feng Shui emporium) to drown your sorrows:- http://forum.geomancy.net/phpforum/article.php?bid=2&fid=6&mid=31499&new= P.S. This forum is only a GENERAL advice forum. I am here to point our what may be the concern and give some directions or for you to ponder over .....

These are some considerations: 1. Under Feng Shui there are two concepts: 1.1.Feng Shui is about trying to improve or enhance good qi and 1.2. If there are imbalances, these should be fixed. 2. In your real life situation; let me draw a parallel with owning a vehicle or car. 2.1. The actors: The car = your home The car accessory shop = Your Feng Shui commercial product purchases (Feng Shui emporium) The car workshop = Feng Shui Triage or fix the leaks 2.2. What you are trying to do is(are); that when your car (house) has a problem. What did you do? 2.3. You end up going to a car ACCESSORIES shop to upgrade your car hifi audio. 2.4. It is the same thing like what you are doing or trying to do. 2.5. For example, you go to a Feng Shui or religious product sales site and you purchase your Tsai Shen Yeh picture. 2.6. Just imagine, if your car is "sick" or has problems; instead of going to a car workshop, you go to the equivalent of a car accessories shop and upgrade your stereo set to a Bose system etc... 2.7. You are only playing into the shoes of those Feng Shui emporium. 3. What is the "bloody" use of installing or upgrading your car hifi or covering your car seat with new covers; if in actual fact, you should have gone to a proper workshop to have your car diagnosed with and solve the problem. 4. It is the same thing. Some people, who have problems go and indulge in over eating e.g. chocolates etc.. to pacify themselves. 5. Here, what is the "bloody" use of beautifying your car (house) while your car engine area has some problems that need to be fixed. 6. Nowadays, even if you need to bring your car to the workshop; they would plug in an ODBII interface it with their computer and run the diagnostic software to find the error codes.. 7. Thus reference: Feng Shui Triage Proper trouble-shooting is required. 8. You said: " hope you can recommend some good remedies ". 8.1 Without a proper Feng Shui triage to find out the problems; don't ever dream of getting good recommendations. 8.2 It is a pity, that for many people, again, they will be tempted to; like what you have done; when your car (house) has a problem; you continue to go to a Car acessories (Feng Shui emporium) type; to find your "solutions". 9. Some how, you have to identify the leaks and not rely on "beautifying" your homes with useless products. And fall into the "Feng Shui emporium vicious cycle trap".

1. Often to understand the underlying issue or concern: The Three-Step-Approach 2. The two key considerations at NW are 2.1. Under the Trigram, NW belongs to the Heaven Trigram 2.2. It is also associated with the Male Head of the House 3. Why is it important not to have the kitchen = in particular the stove at NW? 3.1. Given that NW represents the Heaven Trigram; therefore a stove directly at the sector is like a Fire at the gates of Heaven. 3.2. This is why people call it "FIRE AT HEAVEN'S GATE". 4. Thus if there is a fire at the Heaven's gate; it symbolies "NO LUCK coming from HEAVEN". 5. Again, what I had explained is based purely on LOGIC. 6. Put on a thinking cap, please. 6.1. Do you think that it is worse to have a staircase vs a kitchen (especially the stove?) 7. Logic my friend.... pure logic.... and simple deduction.

In some instances, Steps 1 and 2 are skipped by the seller. A Ruyi

In my opinion, you have done well in not placing your computertable against the morning sun. As well as if the window next to the bed-head is away from the direct afternoon sun (if it is unblocked). Generally, I can understand thus, why you placed the computer table away from sunlight. The corner of a concrete beam pose a longer "wavelength" or sha qi or poison arrow. But in general, both the unused study table corner as well as the computer table are in my opinion, considered as safe due to the distance between both to the bed. More towards a feeling of unease, then physical poison arrow(s).
