    An Unusual Question being asked !

    in Ba Zi Feng Shui / 4 Pillars of Destiny / Life Reading

    Posted


    These are some of the considerations:-


    1. In my opinion; "It Depends".


    2. For example; one should still have to look at the 20 Year Flying Star numbers in relation to the yearly #5 at SW sector to further fine tune the situation.


    3. Actual location : room located at SW. Even subtle things like the decoration; any strong colours used in the room e.g. Bright Yellow? Bright Red? Bright Blue? Also any strong colours on furniture in that room e.g. Bright Red, Bright Yellow furniture etc...


    4. Sometimes a room can be within two pie chart zones. And in such a situation, one has to look at which zone has the highest influence over the room.


    4.1 For example: if a room falls within the SW and West. And say if one draws a pie chart and it shows that the west area covers most or all the windows. And there is a likelyhood that the windows would be opened.


    4.2 And, in this example, SW is trapped at a corner of the room. Then, I would consider this room best influenced by West sector "qi".


    5. It is this kind of fine tuning which is more important whether you are strong wood.


    6. The saying goes: If you don't spent time in that room; Feng Shui is not by remote control.


    7. Thus it's slightly puzzling how one suddenly links one's ba zi element to say a room that one does not occupy - if this is the real senario.


    8. There is a difference unless one fully spends lots of time within a sector; then the standard Feng Shui thing is to harmonize the room .. to that person.


    Effects of 5 elements on harmony (family)

    in General Help

    1. Ba zi should never be used to determine "harmony" within a family as it could lead to one of the following or a combination of any of the following:-


    1.1. auto-suggestion; and/or
    1.2. self-fullfilling prophecy; and/or
    1.3. premature evaluation


    2. It is (at least) not so bad if one wants to apply it "externally" e.g. searching for an external business partner.. but try not to apply it to "family or immediate family".


    3. For example, in Singapore, the hall mark of our system is fairness and objectivity such as choosing the right person for the right job. Not because someone's element is such and such and compatible or not compatible to the boss!

    These are some of the considerations:-


    1. OMG! Luckily, the Chinese culture does not think in terms of your academic exercise!


    2. One of the key success factor of Chinese culture is the support group of a family. Here, the family support group includes: Grand parents to grand uncles; uncles, aunties and immediate family support. And in the past and even present no other cultures have clans.


    3. For example, Singapore Ngee Ann Konsi, Tao Nan, Hakka clan etc... provides greater support for Chinese belonging to a specific province. Even in an overseas country; when Chinese of a certain clan came to Singapore to work; they can rely on their clan for support.


    4. Fortunately, although the Chinese developed such a system; Ba Zi and or Tze Wei Tou Shu; in my opinion and no offence; seriously; if a Chinese were to think like you; even in such an academic exercise; the Chinese culture would never have existed 5,000 years or more.


    5. Drawing a parallel; you are in the process of or towards "designer babies" type of situation. Luckily, in the past, majority of birth is via natural birth.


    6. Such thinking often leads to : some JOKER wanting to select dates and even time for forced induced birth. OMG!


    7. Far from creating balance and harmony; what you mentioned leads to: things like premature evaluation; auto-suggestion and even self-fullfilling prophecy.


    8. In the past and modern times; the only concrete situation is where some before getting married check out the compatibility of their "spouse" or vice versa. At this state; at least they are not "family yet".


    9. But what you are "proposing" or suggesting is that a family checks it's compatibility... of a with b, b with c, c with d... Frankly, most Chinese are not so free to do such a thing. Let alone there are better more productive things to do.


    10. So how, if all family members are not compatible? The patriah disown his children or select a "pet" child?


    11. As I mentioned, blood is thicker than water... Chinese support group is strong even if a child has no hands, the parent will still love them!


    12. Unfortunately, I have to say: "Stop this non-sense, please!" It is a disgrace to the Chinese who developed the Ba Zi. And it should not fall into the wrong hands! Or mis-used in it's entiety. Have nothing better to do is it?


    13. Please don't be offended by the above as you can be forgiven for not knowing our Chinese culture. And frankly, this is not the way to approach the Chinese culture.


    14. For those not too familiar with the Chinese culture, perhaps, call this a "culture shock", please. (Note: Even if you are a Chinese, this is not the right way to mis-use the Ba Zi system).



    Company logo - Strong wood and weak metal partners

    Technically, it makes perfect sense.

    My post:

    Base on the above existing elements, am I right to say: since metal destroys wood (myself & our education business) due to the resulting growth in metal, it'll only destroy the excess wood element , thus creating a balance of wood element benefiting myself & my education business; it'll not destroy my wood element completely or my business?

    If so, does that mean base on that 5-element concept, it may not necessarily be a bad thing if your element is in "conflict" with another element?

    Greatly appreciate your patience.

    Company logo - Strong wood and weak metal partners

    in General Help

    Posted


    1. Technically, if one wants to match an animal sign with the other; then the logo of a dragon:-


    1.1 Is Tiger compatible with Dragon:- YES!
    http://www.lovesigns.net/horoscope/areference/ctidr.htm


    Considered a very good pairing.


    1.2 Is Ox (Cow) compatible with Dragon:- NO!
    http://www.lovesigns.net/horoscope/areference/coxdr.htm


    1.3 If one wants to use a prominent logo like the dragon; and the dragon happens to be one of the 12 Chinese zodiac signs then you may have to refer to the above.

    Hi,

    I'm setting up a business related to education (teaching/ training) with a friend.
    I'm of strong wood element (tiger year) and my partner is of weak metal (cow year).
    I'm thinking of incorporating: yellow, brown & white colours with a drawing that "resembles" a dragon into our company logo; the body of the dragon has wavy lines to replace the scales ( I suppose wavy lines = water element) .

    Will it be suitable for our business, my partner & I?
    Looking forward to your advice.


    Paul Wangchuk




    2. The yellow (earth) and white (metal) colours are suitable for both of you.

    2.1. However since you mentioned that you are a strong wood element then you should try to avoid using brown. As brown is considered as a wood element and would further inflame strong wood element which is not ideal.

    2.2. Here, one can subsitute with the fire element: red, pink or purple.

    2.3. Thus for both of you; the best colours are:-

    Metal (White or silver or gold) = beneficial for both of your element
    Earth (Yellow, cream or beige) = beneifical for both of you element
    Fire (Red, pink or purple) = benefits only yourself (strong wood)

    2.4. You may have to scrap the use of the dragon as wavy = water but water further inflames or fuels strong wood which is not favourable for yourself and even your partner.


    Toilet wall at dining/living area

    in General Help

    Posted


    1. Frankly, the main concern is that of placing an altar with it's back sharing the toilet wall.


    2. For example; this applies to both Chinese altars of various gods and even some Catholics who have a small "symbolic" altar.


    3. Otherwise, any other concerns has more to do with personal feelings or personal sentiments: in your case a deep concern of placing family photos say on wall mounts.


    4. Given the layout plan that you had provided; in-fact, there are many who had placed their dining table next to the toilet wall or sharing the wall -

    Quote
    as no other "better" choice.

    5. Thus, for practical reasons especially the layout ofyour apartment; the placement ofa dining table isvery common and should not serve as a "shock" or a no-no.


    6.Here;if you oryour family member(s) feel very deeply about not having the dining table nor photos there then,really, do findsomewhere else to place them. Otherwise; such placements is not like the "end of the world kind of thing" - commonoccurence.

    1. Go re-read this thread as to the differences between Shapes and Forms vs Flying Star.


    2. More importantly, go search for "Shapes and Forms".


    3. In my opinion, if you only know, eat and sleep upon Flying Star Feng Shui; then it's a real pity... as I had already clearly mentioned in the previous thread to this: " One can live without Flying Star but cannot live without Shapes and Forms".


    4. Those who only practicise Flying star is only superficial in the knowledge of Feng Shui.


    5. Another clue: As our human brain: have left and right hemisphere; go check out whether YOUR Flying School belongs (appeal)to the LEFT or RIGHT brain. While the Shapes and Forms is vice-versa.

    Further to what I mentioned; these are more considerations:-


    1. Shapes and Forms Feng Shui can be used to look at a country, a city, a town, the landscape of the town; the site and the building.


    2. While generally, Flying Star is more "micro" in it's approach. It often applies more to a SITE; (not landscape); the PLOT;the BUILDING and within the FOUR WALLS of the building.


    3. Look at it this way, ONLY after we obtain a plot of land and if we intend to build from scratch; try to fine-tune our building (e.g. home) : it's facing directions; where to lock up bad stars or enhance good stars via planning where is the living room, bedrooms, toilets and other areas.


    4. Shapes and Forms is truly "Global" as it can be used for both MACRO and MICRO Feng Shui. While many take advantage of the Flying Star as a "fine-tuning" instrument".


    5. In this bigger picture; it is much like a good radio. We first tune in to a channel via Shapes and Forms Feng Shui; and then "fine-tune" the strength of the channel via Flying Star Feng Shui. Get it? Got it?

    1. In a previous message; you mentioned that you are so into Flying Star Feng Shui;


    2. If you are so into this Flying Star "stuff" then you could draw a Flying Star Chart of the home:-


    2.1 Interpret the 20 Year Flying Star combinations: paying attention to numbers like #3 and #5.

    2.2 Check the 81 combinations of the mountain star with water star interpretation. For example, see a small extract showing the interaction of Mountain Star #4 with Water Star #3.


    3. Even if one wants to "eat and sleep" with Flying Star should be well versed in all aspects of the Flying Star Feng Shui".


    4. The saying goes " a little knowledge is like no knowlege.. and often .. a dangerous thing".


    5. In addition; one cannot simply eat and sleep on Feng Shui alone...

    1. In my opinion, you really have a long long way in understanding the true meaning of Feng Shui.


    2. Traditional Feng Shui consists of:-


    2.1. The Shapes and Forms Feng Shui
    2.2. The Compass School: which consists of the Eight House (4 Good/Bad) and The Flying Star Feng Shui.


    3. Please ponder over theseFIVEstatements:


    3.1 "One can live without Flying Star but cannot live without Shapes and Forms Feng Shui".


    3.2Merely "eating and sleeping on Flying Star Feng Shui alone does not necessarily mean success!"


    3.3 "If ever Flying Star Feng Shui clashes with Shapes and Forms Feng Shui; then, it is better that Flying Star Feng Shui drop dead, first. Hail to the Shapes and Forms Feng Shui".


    3.4 "Even if your home iscovered in Flying Star "gold"; or within the four walls of your home; but when one steps outside the home and every other thing is collapsing; then go on eating and sleeping on Flying Star Feng Shui - make my day, here!"


    3.5 "Flying Star Feng Shui is not an EAT ALL! In food, we must have variety for a balanced diet. For example, if Flying Star Feng Shui does not contain vitamin C; this lack of vitamin Cleads toscurvy; the symptoms are:muscle weakness, swollen and bleeding gums, loss of teeth..."


    4. Yeah.. indeed; you have lots of mountains to climb before you can understand "good Feng Shui principles" .

    These are some of the considerations:-


    1. If the breadwinner and spouse had already slept in the new or resale home especially :


    1.1. Used the built in stove to cook a meal:
    1.2. Bathed in the home
    1.3. Slept in the new or resale home

    2. Especially if all these three ACTIVITIES were done say in the same day; then no need to talk: this is already considered as "moved-in".


    3. If one brings in a used washing machine; but did not use it; this is in the loose sense - for practical reasons; fine or OK.


    4. It is the same thing as an "old" or "existing" dining table brought into the new home. So long as one does not use it for proper dining; then it is technically fine.


    5. For example, some people love antique furniture. And say you just purchased this furniture i.e. a set of dining table and chairs. To you it is a "new" furniture as you have never used it before. It is just asking a shop to bring in your new sofa or fridge.


    6. Again there is no hard or fast rule; here.


    7. Anyway; if one believes in one's god; you do thing that your god will be so petty as to "fix" you up if you bring in old furniture... or the god "gets angry" because one brings in the god's existing altar.. Will the god request that one get's it a new altar?


    8. For the die-hards or the "Kia-su"(scared to lose) or worse the "Kia-see" (scared to die) then make sure don't bring in anything "old"..lor...


    9. There is no right or wrong, here.


    10. Please ponder over this statement: "Frankly, if my GOD is so PETTY; I would not even consider bringing the GOD into my new home."
