1. Other considerations include information from this link:-
http://forum.geomancy.net/resources/art/art-under.htm
2. For example, it is never wise to have a bed directly above a sewerage pipe.
3. Thanks for your picture. Frankly, of course, in a perfect world; one should'nt even have a sewer pipe cum sewer junction / man-hole at all!
4. But we all live in a real world. In Singapore, like every other country; often sewerage man-holes are either at the front or the back of the home. No choice as these are put in place by a developer.
5. Of course it would be perfect or nice if it runs behind the home.
6. In this real world (not make believe); do check how the sewerage pipe runs into the home. Hopefully, it does not run along areas where one may be lying down e.g. on a floor or directly above the living room flooring or a guest room at the ground level.
7. Otherwise, even if one say pray to GOD, the man-hole cover would not disappear. I believe "I dream of genie" girl will also say.. sorry... "too bad".. NEXT....QuoteOn 1/7/2011 8:59:03 AM, Anonymous wrote:
Thank you so much Cecil, for
taking the time to
answer my question!
Luckily all four family
members have been able to
maintain health, now
that we have made sure to
activate our east areas
with lush healthy
plants. Now my main
concern is our wealth.
I
recently read in our feng shui
books that sewer drains
resemble loss of
wealth, and driveways that
slope away from the home
resemble loss of
wealth.
Our home has both, a sloping
driveway and a large sewer
drain at the end of the
driveway.Is this driveway/
sewer combination
bad Feng Shui? Are there
any Feng Shui cures or fixes
if it is bad? I
will try to attach pictures of
the driveway for better
clarification,

These are some of the considerations:
1. Placement of coin(s) is an in-exact science. And there are no right or wrong technique of doing so.
2. The core idea is that of symbolism in custom (not Feng Shui). In that of "PLACING WEALTH" into one's home.
3. Thus, some Geomancers will advice a range of "ideas":
3.1. Some Geomancers say, simply scatter some coins in a random manner into the home. For example, prior to laying the top most level tile or flooring some coins; e.g. need not be "ancient" Chinese coins; can even be "left over" or "spare change" such as one cent coins or five cents or even larger denomination.
3..2. Another more systematic method is to lay coins at "specific" locations; in an orderly manner in a home where the tiles /flooring has not been laid yet.
4. Thus, if some one were to tell us that this method is wrong or not right is either egoistic or has only a one track mind.
5.As mentioned above, there is really no ONE correct method of the placement of coins. Just remember: it is the act of "literally" laying down or throwing coins into one's home: i.e. the concept of PLACING WEALTH into one's home - that's all. Nothing scientific or rocket science or must only be done a specific way.

Reference: http://geomancy.net/resources/yearly-forecast/fortunes-2011.htm- Sickness Star this year is at South
- Misfortune/Sickness Star this year is at East
- Disputes/Quarrel Star this year is at North
- Education/Romance Star this year is at South-West
- Grand Duke this year is East, 90 Degree.
- Avoid sitting facing the grand duke or disturbing him by having renovations.
- Location in Conflict is West.
- Avoid having renovations done opposite the location in conflict.
The trigger or fuse is to do major renovations at East. If so, dire consequences such as calamity and ultimate bad luck could occur for East facing homes. Sitting East facing West; should equally be concerned especially terrace homes.QuoteOn 1/7/2011 12:36:32 AM, Anonymous wrote:

1. Reference on the stove: Kitchen Stove & Moreor http://wiki.geomancy.net/wiki/Kitchen_Stove_%26_More
2. The kitchen is the domain of the woman of the house. And under the Compass School, it should best sit and face one the the woman's best direction (if possible).
3. However, if based purely on Shapes and Form's Feng Shui; then what you mentioned is a key cardinal rule of having the stove against the wall: not only to prevent splatter but also avoid "wind vortex" that could cause the flame to spill towards one's clothing (if it is placed on an island) or even worse, extinguish the fire.. and let gas built up.
4. If a stove is to be placed on an island in the middle of the kitchen; then best to consider those electric ones or induction ones where flames does not come out of a hob.
5. A stove facing a refrigerator is OK. As a refrigerator is considered as belonging to the metal element. But avoid having the stove face a water position such as a sink.
6. In addition, it is best that the stove is separated by at least 12 inches from the sink.
7. Yes, as for the drain line, best not to have the stove sharing the same wall as the drain pipe. Allowing the sink to be there is fine.QuoteOn 1/6/2011 3:10:19 AM, Anonymous wrote:

an open kitchen and that feels

Sorry, I thought exams are fixed by the examiner and not the other way around.
In my opinion, if one has studied (smart) and well prepared for an examination; the date is not a major issue. Really; this is the first time I heard this kind of "self-select" exam date. A first for me!
As for your feel that your husband may be cheating on you; you should perhaps consult your immediate family e.g. parents or very close friends to discuss what you could do. Often, direct communication with spouse could help to improve the relationship. When it comes to such a thing; best to consider professional help - don't keep everything inside of you.QuoteOn 1/2/2011 10:52:50 AM, Anonymous wrote:

For your first question, so long as the steps leading to second storey is not directly seen from the main door, what you describe is generally acceptable. However, some may feel or rather be more conservativ and may want to play it safe, thus to cover it.
For the second question, it has to do with commonsense. As often who wants to see the toilet when eating.QuoteOn 1/3/2011 2:55:51 AM, Anonymous wrote:

1. In my opinion, it is difficult to comment with the limited information; available.
2. Often, when it comes to the question of : Should I move? For many, the question posed is: will my new home be better or worse than the current home.
3. For many (unlike yourself); perhaps have stayed in a home; not much fantastic Feng Shui luck; but still can scrape thru. What happens if the next home has worse Feng Shui; or similar to what you may have encountered?
4. However, in your case; I am not sure how detailed the "Feng Shui" analysis and cures that was done previously.
5. On your question of "how extreme to have to move": Currently para 4; is a real question mark; and you have indicated that it is beyond cures. And that you are facing many issues (tons of issues). Yet, you have mentioned that it is too extreme to move.
6. In such a situation, it is always right to discuss amongst yourself especially with your partner (perhaps before things get worse); to decide on the future: stay put or move. If move (often, how bad can it perhaps be when compared to current situation?). Thus, you have to work it out and see what is best for you and your family.QuoteOn 1/5/2011 1:42:32 AM, Anonymous wrote:

In my opinion, there is no precedence for selecting a business name unless it is in Mandarin.
The rationale is that all Mandarin (Chinese) characters have specific number of strokes (based on the Five Elements) and also each character or combination of character (wording) symbolises something if possible auspicious sounding or phonetic sounding or a good word.
Unless one converts and uses an auspicious Chinese company name or name "plate"; having it in any other language is a non-precedence.
Furthermore, nowadays, in many countries, even if one selects a name, it has to be checked with the registrar of business to see whether has it being currently used.QuoteOn 1/5/2011 3:13:01 AM, Anonymous wrote:

Reference: http://www.geomancy.net/info/initial-opening.pdf
Under the procedure (the last Para 8.), it mentions that it is best to leave the items for 3 days or more. Thus if the procedure is done on a Tuesday, best to leave the items till Thursday, And should be removed only on or after Friday.
But for instances where one has to start renovations immediately, then often it is left for at least 1 hour after the procedure is done. The items are eaten or THROWN away never given out to strangers - whatsoever; as this is symbolic of giving away one's wealth.
For new homes or apartments, sprinkling slat may not be ideal especially for brand new condo units. As salt and later water may inadvertenly spoil the flooring especially parquet wood floorings.
Frankly, there is no hard and fast rule nor rocket science associated with the procedure. Thus normally, it should be done after spreading the rice. And often, salt could/should/may be spread especially in areas like the toilet and kitchen. But again, do remember that too much salt is acidic and can discolour marble and wood .....
Imagine this: If I do add "salt" into the procedure, there are always some who do not know the consequences - and even mistake sprinkling salt into new homes! Here, as I mentioned, try sprinkling salt onto parquet flooring.. and behold... one may get white spots on parts of the flooring...QuoteOn 1/3/2011 4:26:18 PM, Anonymous wrote:

Sorry to hear about your situation.
1. It is best that you feedback to your existing local geomancer. And ask the person for further advice as it is not like posting a few lines of text and then "worse-still" expect a miracle to happen.

Creeper wires were also provided for the creepers to climb up to the snake like trellis. The green roofs at the roof deck helps to cool the temperative within the development.
It has the usual playground, excerise station, jogging paths and community rest area.
Within the individual units; the non-loading walls use of ferrolite partition wall system. It is suppose to help abosrb noise between rooms. This material is lightweight and cuts down on the use of raw materials like cement and sand. -
Treelodge, Punggol is Singapore's first publich housing (HDB) project witht the GREEN MARK Platinum award. This built-to-order HDB eco-precint launched in March 2007 has just TOP.
At the common-ground; although it has a "snaking" trellis; the trellis does not seem to be pointed towards any of the flats. As the trellis are pointed below any dwelling (the dwellings are at level 2).
In addition, even if the trellis spokes does point any any windows (if any); in some of the photos; the creepers have already began to cover these spokes very well. In the future, the creeps would act as a natural canopy in an eco-friendly way.QuoteOn 7/23/2009 5:28:36 PM, Anonymous wrote:
1. Please see attachment.
2. From the picture, you can
even see the shadow of the
trellise that resembles spikes
radiating out of the club
house roof. It happens to
slice into Stacks 28 and 29.
3. I have re-attached the site
map and amended it in purple.
As the stacks should be 28 and
29 and not 26 and 29.

Location for ancient coin
in General Help
Posted
These are some information:-
1. Do take note that all the coins that we purchase in most of the shops are considered as "replica" coins. We can say that the coins are non-geniune.
2. Majority of the coins are considered as "replica-ancient" Chinese coins and metallic in nature often containing copper and some other mixed alloy e.g. bronze etc..
3. When purchasing such "replica" coins; best to purchase coins with metallic content such as those mentioned under Para 2. There are some coins which are made from plastic. Don't buy these for coin laying procedure.
4. Other civilizations mint coins that usually have a sidewith the head: such as an emperor or even a king or queen as in the UK coins - currently with Her Royal Highness Elizabeth Regina II.
5. Thus, such coins can easily be differated with : Heads side = the side with a figure head on it. And the reverse is automatically called the Tail-side.
6. All Chinese ancient coins have: ONE side = Wordings. And the reverse side = scripture / picture or even the Eight trigram.
7. Technically, we may call the wordings side perhaps = HEADS. My argument is that in a specific dynastic; the wordings would signify the emperor's reign. So, call it heads.
8. In my opinion, automatically, the reverse with either pictorial scribbings or eight trigram = "flower side" perhaps should be called the Tail-side.
9. Chinese ancient coins have many designs. Some of the photos; can be found under this forum when I had visited the Shanghai museum a few years ago.
10. Usually wordings on the Chinese coins either refer to the reign of an emperor or is carved with auspicious sounding phases like: Zhao Cai Jun Bao = Invite Wealth; Bring Treasure.
11. Attached, please find the wordings on a sheet where ten coins representing each of the 10 Qing dynastic emperors - were suppose to be attached to the sheet. By the way, a few years ago this 10 set of coins sell for SGD $2.50. Today, you bought it for SGD $3.50. Blame it on inflation!
