1. In my opinion, the centrepoint should be as shown in the attachment. 2. Fortunately, the kitchen is not at NW. (Fire at Heaven's gate) 3. Sometimes when we have a child, some people may sleep "three in a row" as shown in the attached example: centrepoint plotfloorplan A. Here, for the person sleeping close to the bed-head or bedroom wall, beware that the toilet bowl (sewerage area) is close to this wall.

1. Do you know that within a relatively short span of 11 years, China has come a long way. 2. In the 1990's and even in 2002, large influencial sites like Geomancy.net with it's huge resources on Feng Shui was literary blocked in China. 3. As previously the late Chairman Mao, during the communist time, felt that either Feng Shui is a threat or a belief. 4. Fortunately, in the last few years, whilst in China, I tried to log in to my website: Geomancy.net and was pleasantly surprised that it is no longer filtered or blocked. 5. At that time, I don't know why, but China considered Feng Shui a religion. 6. Just imagine, Feng Shui is a Chinese institution and at that time; Communist China literally "feared" and targetted sites like Geomancy.net besides Times.com, BBC.com and all other large sites. 7.

Do we consider the unit as south3 or SW1? Understand period 8 SW1 flying star is good, but we are East group can still benefit from it?Thanks !

In my opinion; you must plot a proper Flying Star chart to locate where are the bad stars. In particular #3 which happens to be the conflicts, quarrels and legal entanglement. And also what are the 20 Year flying star in each sector to disarm it. The item you purchased is a commercial product. In fact, once you had located especially bad stars like #3, you can easily disarm it even with a "light" at that sector which represents Fire and/or red colour. Most people try to entice all of us to depart with our hard earned money to buy such products. The saying goes: When the buying STOPS, the selling CAN.

1. The clue here is that the Chinese Luck system is a holistic approach. 2. Thus, any person (human being)or thing (house) that has a birth-date should be considered. 3. Thus as a human being has a date of birth, I am sure a home also has especially it's date of completion where a Temporary Occupational Permit (TOP) has to be given. 4. The location where the partition has to be investigated. For example, for the home, a Flying Star chart should be constructed to determine whether a water position is suitable say at the main entrance area OR NOT. 5. Similiarly, the difference between bogus Feng Shui and authethic Feng Shui is that Ba Zi has to be factored in. Ba zi when used in a Feng Shui environment is called: BA ZI FENG SHUI or in modern English Language it is often called: 4 PILLARS FENG SHUI. 6. Thus often, someone may ask the question: How do you differentiate an authentic Feng Shui Master vs a bogus one... It has to be a slew of various modules: Compass Schools: Eight House + Flying Star + Ba zi Feng Shui + Shapes & Forms Feng Shui. On10/29/2011 1:05:09 AM, andie chia wrote:

These are some considerations: 1. The Three-Step-Approach 2. Although the lowest common denominator is the Five Elements concept; 3. No offence, your earlier question(s) are like asking about the climate in China and then suddenly, you are asking about where to fish in the Alaska. 4. If you really want to understand a concept or model; then be prepared to understand it under Para 1 above: the 3 step approach. 5. Flying Star Feng Shui, already is based on timely stars. And it has already a BUILT in mechanism to take care of the elements and it's strength. 6. For example, most geomancers would plot a 20 YEAR Flying Star chart. 7. You got to ask yourself why is there such a thing as YEARLY, or MONTHLY or even DAILY or for the Flying Star fan; the HOURLY flying stars. 8. Take this example, below:- Paid Summarized Chart for a Group North-West (Metal - white/gold) 2 8 3 year 8 GOOD sector [1.] Health [2.] Death [3.] Spook [4.] Spook Comb. 10 Mountain Star North (Water - blue/black/gray) 7 3 7 year 3 GOOD sector [1.] Spook [2.] Longevity [3.] Health [4.] Health 2011 has inauspicious star 3 Mountain Star found Water Star found Comb. 10 Water Star Comb. 10 Mountain Star North-East (Earth - yellow) 9 1 5 year 1 GOOD sector [1.] Excellent [2.] Disaster [3.] Irritation [4.] Irritation Comb. 10 Mountain Star West (Metal - white/gold) 1 9 4 year 9 GOOD sector [1.] Longevity [2.] Spook [3.] Death [4.] Death Comb. 10 Mountain Star Center (Earth - yellow) 3 7 2 year 7 GOOD sector 2011 has inauspicious star 7 Comb. 10 Mountain Star East (Wood - green/brown) 5 5 9 year 5 INAUSPICIOUS sector [1.] Irritation [2.] Prosperity [3.] Excellent [4.] Excellent Sector Cure: Metal 2011 has inauspicious star 5 Duplicate Mountain Star Comb. 10 Mountain Star South-West (Earth - yellow) 6 4 8 year 4 GOOD sector [1.] Prosperity [2.] Irritation [3.] Disaster [4.] Disaster Comb. 10 Mountain Star South (Fire - red) 8 2 6 year 2 GOOD sector [1.] Disaster [2.] Excellent [3.] Prosperity [4.] Prosperity 2011 has inauspicious star 2 Comb. 10 Mountain Star (Main Door / Frontage) South-East (Wood - green/brown) 4 6 1 year 6 EXCELLENT sector [1.] Death [2.] Health [3.] Longevity [4.] Longevity Comb. 10 Mountain Star 9. Each sector has it's 20 YEAR and even YEARLY stars. 10. Frankly, this Flying Star thing already has Five Elements "built into it" So why must one create a monster in the form of what you wrote. #6 = Big METAL #7 = Weak METAL. 10.1. Your question is like re-inventing the wheel. And instead of making the input, output, your "method" looks to me more like only rocket scientists could understand and get it correctly, please. 11. Therefore, it is best for those who are just learning such thing to remember that even babies need to crawl, walk clumsily before they can run or swim instead of getting drown.

Frankly, this type of layout plan is quite common. From a general Feng Shui point of view; not that critical. If you don't like what you see when entering the bedroom door; then simply close the toilet door when not in use.

This is a flavour as to why earth element even if it does not directly belong to one of the "seasons" ... http://forum.geomancy.net/phpforum/article.php?bid=2&fid=1&mid=10983&new= In addition, this past message gives a flavour that not only the seasons, but each day, there is a different "reigning element": http://forum.geomancy.net/phpforum/article.php?bid=2&fid=1&mid=16063&new= In addition, take a look at a day's forecast. It is also based on the lowest common denominator the Five Elements concept. http://online.geomancy.net/public/code/html-fs-daily-forecast?nextday=0&tpl=-fullpage And even every 2 hours, there is a reigning zodiac sign. For example, if it is the RAT hour, RAT is associated under the water element in the Five Elements.

If you are looking at micro-level of the Five Elements, just imagine it flows with the 4 seasons: Spring, Summer, Autumn and Winter. While earth elementin a general sense, falls in between each of the four seasons.

1. In my opinion, since you stated that the home is vacant; 2. There is no issue for you to do renovations this year be it at East or other sectors so long as you have not moved into THAT home. 3. Thus, even if you were to do 10 or 20 renovations prior to move-in; there is no issue. 4. This is based on the concept of a remote control. Here, if you don't stay in that home; you cannot use a "remote control" to control your home. 5. However, if you had already moved-in to the home even after the 10 or 20 renovations; and "touch" or "disturb" East sector; then this is different. 5.1. Thus say after move-in; you don't like the wall colour at East and decided to repaint it after you move in; then this is "bad". 5.2. Alternatively, if you decide to drill holes into the wall to fix cabinets or shelfs; then this is an no-no. 5.3. However, if you choose to push a table against a wall or place a cabinet next to the east wall, then there is no issue.

Once upon a time; prior to the year 2010; Geomancers were literally called: a Geomancer or Master (si-fu). Today, tomorrow and always. Today, some Geomancers decide that this is not enough! They want to be called something else. Under Symbolism, it ain't good to be a Grand Master... there are dire consequences, here. You may just be imortalised when you R.I.P.! Or rather... it means... you are close to or near to your date with R.I.P.! or YIN Feng Shui. (YIN = dead) Morale of the story? Who should be called a Grand Master? It simply means, your time is nearly up!

Many of us fear living in either a haunted house or a house that may invite Dracula or Count Dracula and his cronies the vampires... You can also try to avoid getting your home haunted by not using curtains with these colours... "YOUR CHOICE! YOUR HOME!" Invite the Count or the Spirits... really it is up to U!

Are you able to visualise an "UP ARROW" sign from the entire profile of this rudimentary outline of a typical house?

1. Is this house considered at a L-Junction. (L-Junction and T-Junctions are quite similar form of sha-qi). 2. Yes, in theory, Yes, definitely this house is at a L-Junction. 3. But under Shapes and Forms, a further question need to be asked: 3.1. Which country is this photo taken from? 3.2. So what if this house is at an L-Junction. So long as Singapore's cars are "RIGH-HAND" drive; there is no issue with a Sha qi or poison arrow. 4. However, if this is in the US, China or many European countries other than UK, this may be considered as a sha qi. 5. Therefore, for homes at a T-Junction or in this case an L-Junction; do always remember "Righ-hand" or "Left-hand" drive vehicles of that country.

Please note that unwanted spirits and ghosts love curtains with any colour so long as it is NOT PURPLE!

Photos of Sky at Eleven. Photos taken from The Arte @ Thomson. Some ponder over buying a unit at Sky @ Eleven for the sole reason that the road leading to the condo is an old folks home. Literally, I know of an overseas businessman who bought a unit there and then decided to live in another luxury condo development. As his reason is because of the old folks home.

Lots of stalls in this Bedok Food Centre boasts this.. boasts that... Goreng means fry in Malay. And Pisang means bananas. Thus this stall sells Fried (crispy) banana dipped in a batter and fried. This stall claims that it is the KING of Goreng Pisang. Thus if you also want to be a KING! Go and eat their goreng pisang! Be a KING yourself! Hmm... how about THEQUEEN of Goreng Pisang!

According to this stall at Bedok Food Centre (Bedok Corner); does it imply or mean that Satay has power or eating satay gives you power or this stall has the power to provide you with satay? This stall also claims that it has the "BEST" nasi lemak! ALAMARK!

1. Sorry to hear about your situation. 2. Frankly, this changing of period is a 20 year affair. And even for most Feng Shui practitioners even if they start doing Feng Shui at the age of 18 years old; most likely they may only encounter such a change 3 times. (Lack experience in this area. In law, this is like "hear-say evidence" which cannot be admitted or counted type of thing). 3. Thus what I like to imply is that many practitioners even today, cannot agree with the definition of change of period. Even if there is some consensus, what we want is to see results if any and not talk or crossing fingers. You stay there, we (geomancers) don't. 4. The very conservative school would say that the foundation must change in order for a chang of qi. 5. Another group or school is more liberal. Do a search in this forum for lots of discussion on this subject. As many messages had been posted around the year 2004. 6. In my opinion; the success rate for a small unit or apartment is pretty "small". 6.1 The chance of changing the period is kinda of like 25 to 30 percent most of the time. And this does not even come close to 50:50 chance of a "flip" of period. 6.2 And this avenue is pretty "costly" without a SOLID guarantee of great success! And it can even add to the already financial burden and not including stress of temporary relocation and or stress if still staying in that apartment. 6.3. Furthermore, much analysis has to be done e.g. if did not tempoarily move out during renovations: sectors such as East where Tai Sui resides and the Five Yellow is located at EAST sector. Here, avoid renovations like the plague during this period (year). Not withstanding avoiding renovations (elsewhere) such as the 3 killings sector ... etc... 7. Thus changing period, may not be the way to go. May have to explore other avenues. As often, as mentioned previously often a house or apartment has at least 3 major leaks for it to turn pretty bad.. like in your situation. 8. If you know how to plot your apartment's flying star(s) etc.. and check where are the really bad stars especially #5 misfortune/sickness #2 sickness and #3 scandals, quarrels, conflicts and "depression' for both the 20 year and the current period, this would in my own opinion; a more worthy pursuit then trying to figure out how to change Period. 9. Contrary to popular belief; if one really wants to change period; must PLOT both period stars and study the two charts carefully. To check for any repercussions if any. 9.1 For example, if the current bedroom has a bad stars; but after changing or trying to change the period; that bedroom even has worst stars especially combinations of #5 with #9 etc.... this is a double-edged sword. 9.2 It is not like your apartment is a palace. Where if this sector is bad, you can move to the east or west or north wing of the palace. You can't just relocate your parents to the kitchen or toilet if these have better stars.

These are further clarifications: 1. Shapes like what you had posted, is a good candidate for trying to get the area of protusion close to missing area(s). 2. Here, please take note that the area of protusion NEED not necessarily be the actual protusion. 3. For example, using judgement; the missing area can be as large as (you want) and the protusion can be as little or as much as you "want". 4. Ultimately, what one wants to achieve here is that as far as possible, the missing areas should match that of a protusion. As in my example. 5. Unlike a recent posting asking me to find the centrepoint (centre-of-gravity) - where I mentioned that there is a long passageway and the entire shape looks like a "laser-ray gun or pistol" type of layout.. Here, because of the long passage (handle) this would definitely throw the center-of-gravity off balance. 6. Again, if one really wants to find the exact center-of-gravity; can or may : photocopy a layout, paste it on a cardboard, cut-out the outline and balance on a pin to find the center of gravity.

1. In my opinion; this is a case of "pulling-one's leg" or else most likely must be an April Fool's joke or something like that. 2. It is also, like an alien who landed on earth. And met a war veteran who had lost his left leg to a landmine. This alien may report back that all earthlings have only one leg! "Are you pulling my legs?" 3. Furthermore, nowadays, even children can differentiate such things. "Mum, don't be fooled!"

"Necessity is the mother of all inventions" However, often many with vision would go further... The story told was that in order to be considerate to others; SONY developed the first WALKMAN.(The fore-runner of the "ipod") The purpose was that especially when one is riding on the Mass Rapid Tansit (MRT); when listening to the music; one would not disturb (polute the air with noise). Drawing a parallel; although APPLE were not the ones that developed the first Ipod; however, they came out with the iPAD. With a vision that this would later become a necessity.... Even if many had made fun of the iPAD = women's U KNOW WHAT! Thus SONY (in the past) and APPLE (during Steve Job's time) showed vision in developing something which both companies felt that would be useful.

1. In my opinion, using eye-ball method:- 1.1. For a rectangular(ish) type of layout plan, please see a very rough eye-ball estimation. 1.2. Alternative, try the dinosaur method of : photocopy a layout, glue it on a card-board, cut out the outline and try to balance it with a pin. 1.3. In my opinion, for a RECTANGULAR plot, "It is not possible for such a big area." If we use our feel, definitely if we use a cut-out this so called protusion that you tried to outline would definitely place some weight and "throw-off" the center of gravity to somewhere: which I had marked in PURPLE.

I have encountered many layouts similar to these in various HDB flats located all over Singapore e.g. Fernvale Block 4xx etc... Under Symbolism in Feng Shui, it is common sense that when we enter a home or apartment, our first impression counts. Here... just go ahead and imagine...

A simple, elegant, cost effective plus functional design. (Refer to attachments) 1. This design is both simple, elegant and functional. And this is a holistic approach as incorporates the entire design into the main entrance, dining and living room spaces. 2. For example, often when we enter a home; it is preferred that the foyer light is evenly distributed. Thus a down-light or several down-lights can be incorporated into the false ceiling at the frontage area. While at the living room area, cove lights takes it's place. 3. When entering a home, if we have light(s) that are central to the main door; doesn't it make the house more "grand" much like an airport's runway. 4. For example, many of us have seen episodes of Mr Beans' dramas, there is always a beam of light that shines down that looks like a cone. 5. Here, if we have a light central to the main door; just imagine; the light will shine down like a cone. When standing outside the home, looking inwards, one can see like the cone pointing towards the sky. 5.1 This symbolises an "UP arrow" sign = auspicious. For example, a house with a pointed roof; if we combine the entire profile of the house and the roof; it also looks like an "UP arrow" sign. Which symbolies UP or progress. 5.2 However, the only "minus" is that one must make sure where one wants to place the dining table. If so, either the dining table conforms to the outline of the false ceiling OR it can still be "pushed" further or extended much like your example of ceiling A. This is still possible.
