Dear Anon, The rule of thumb here is to "visualise" each sector and also their specific star numbers. For example, in a bedroom, if there are two sectors that cut-across into the this bedroom, firstly visualise where the bed would be. Often especially the location of the bed and/or work/study table should be seriously considered as the major factor in determining which "sector" to use. In addition, where is the windows. One may also need to visualise which sector covers most the windows etc... In my opinion, with each experience, it is much easier to work on such plans. Another commonsense approach is that if say a room is located within two sectors and if one of sectors contain bad stars or a combination of #5 misfortune/sickness and or #2 sickness; then one should be more cautious and include these stars when considering "cures" to the room. Frankly, much of it depends on each layout as no two layouts are the same. Even in a 9 grid formation, especially if all rooms / floor plans are not of equal size, there is surely a situation where a room can also come into another sector. Well, see which method is more comfortable to you.

Dear Lindy, Frankly, it is a good idea to rebuild the home entirely. Since your friend knows the history of the site; where there is no major history of bad qi other than she has no "feelings towards" the old home. As mentioned earlier, it is always better to rebuild totally or at least if rebuild partially not to touch the frontage of the building. I have produced a past link whereI told the story of how my grand pa, "chopped" off the head-of his home. No sooner had he done that and when work started on the new wing at the head-of-the house, he met with "calamity". The link is below:-http://www.geomancy.net/resources/art/art-grandpa3.htm Traditionally, if a geomancer has been engaged, a good date is chosen to do the inital start of piling or foundation work. In addition, your friend can take the opportunity to built a "Feng Shui" friendly home. Warmest Regards, Cecil

Dear Anon, Usually, what you had described is considered under the category of "Commonsense approach" to Feng Shui. This is often considered inauspicious because that there may be a probability or "a higher risk" of landslide. Especially if there is unduly a heavy rain and plus soil erosion. Because of this reason, it is considered inauspicious under Feng Shui. However, if this is not a concern, then, frankly (in general) there is no issue. Warmest Regards, Cecil Quote: Anonymous wrote: could you please let me know if up hill back gardens (when the ground behindones housegoesvery steep up)could have anegativeeffect.

Dear Anon, In my opinion, although the main door facing may not be suitable to you; however, it is too premature to know for sure how it affects your finance. For example, this can be considered as ONE (1) leak. But yet, this one leak can be either: No or minimal issue (minor leak) or a major leak. From my past experience, many other factors need to be taken into account:- 1. External Environment (The landscape, the site, the building). This is strongly affected by Shapes and Forms Feng Shui. Usually, the rich get richer, is by building a home specific to draw wealth from the environment. This is not illegal as one cannot complain to the police to arrest him/her. Quantum Leap Feng Shui exists where we truly can "suck" wealth from the environment. One method is the design of the home. For example, if the close neighbourhood have buildings in rectangular shape, then this owner's Geomancer may propose a "taller" home in the shape of a tree. Under the Five elements concept rectangular shape belong to the earth element. Thus a building shaped like a tall structure is likea tree getting nourishment from the ground (earth). This is just an example. 2. Interior Environment The home / apartment. Here, a combination of Shapes and Forms Feng Shui with Compass School (Eight House and Flying Star) plus Ba Zi should be used effectively to either neutralise sha qi (bad qi / poison arrows) and /or to improve or enhance good Feng Shui. Whether this main door leak is major or minor could also revolve from an analysis under Flying Star Feng Shui. For example, if your home faces NE or SW; under Period 8, this is suppose to be one of the better homes. And if one applies Flying Star correctly, then, one can have a "quantum leap" of luck towards us. Thus, even if the home is considered inauspicious for us, but because it has better Feng Shui, then, your incompatibility with this home is reduced or negated by such better Feng Shui. Thus in general, it is said that the "leak" is minor. If your facing direction is say NW or North. Then, currently such facing directions may not have good Flying Star charts. If so, again in general (without taking into consideration other factors) this home already have not so good birth chart coupled with "death or disaster" for you may perhaps bring financial issues. As both the Flying star and eight house charts are not good. From the above, try to understand that we should not immediately "black-mark" a home just because we discovered ONE leak. We need to dwell further to find out not only is this a major or minor leak but perhaps can we: 1. neutralise or reduce any OTHER leaks? 2. can we enhance any other sectors to improve our luck? Warmest Regards, Cecil Quote: Anonymous wrote: Hi Master, if I'm staying in a house where themain dooris facing the death and disaster directions according to my ba zi, I gather that there's a possibility that I'llhave some financial problems.

Dear Krisztina, Since you mentioned hat you flat-share; within your room, yes; you can still do a "little" of Feng Shui. There are two approaches and both can be combined together:- 1. Eight House Compass School Feng Shui Try to determine whether you are either an East or West Group person. If not sure, can use the free tools provided under http://www.geomancy-online.com It is recommended that you should generate the best bed-head direction and best work/study table direction charts. And if possible, invest in a small compass. Once youhave all these, you can then try to see whether you can position your bed / study in the best possible directions (not withstanding the restrictions of the current bedroom i.e. wardrope, windows). 2. Commonsense approach Many people all over the world don't even have a single notion of what "Feng Shui" or in India "Vastu" is all about. And the most natural is to organise the bedroom based on one's instict. For most of us, this is the most natural thing to do. In addition, feel free to decorate or place even things like for some girls (or ladies) soft toys, photo frame of family, friends etc... Warmest Regards, Cecil Quote: Krisztina Takacs wrote: I am new to Feng Shui. I live in a flatshare with friends.

Dear Jack, Feng Shui can help in two situations: 1.Apply the Eight House Theory: Best study directions and Best bed-head directions (for sleep) 2. Yin & Yang; Yang & Yin Many other situations may have to do more with the food you take, your current "stress-levels"; "support-group" etc... 1. Try to generateyour own personal Eight House chart to see where your best work directions are. If possible, but taking into consideration; the bedroom layout plan; you should try to sit facing agood direction for study. It is also nice to have the bed-head facing towards a good direction. But often, like the layout plan that you had sketched out, usually it is much harder to place the bed-head. Based on your layout plan, there is I believe some room to try to manouvre yourstudy table to a good direction (again, nice to have).You can goto: http://www.geomancy-online.com 2. Yin & Yang Concept Since you do not have the luxury of having two separate rooms i.e. one for sleep the other for work, then like most people, have to work around this. For example, if it is time for study, make sure that the room is bright (yang) and all your study items placed closed-by. When it is time to sleep, you could perhaps draw down the curtains or make the room "cosier" for rest. As mentioned above, room layout and placement are based on Feng Shui. But in addition, there are other factors like good health (exercise) and in my opinion, it is very effective to have a good "study-buddy" group to encourage us as well as give us some "discipline". Wishing you success in your studies! Warmest Regards, Cecil

Dear Anon, To understand better, we have to know that there are three kinds of Luck:- Based on the Chinese Holy Trinity of Luck, there are generally, three types of luck:- 1. Heaven Luck (What we are born with) 2. Earth Luck (The Feng Shui of our home and even office) 3. Man or Human Luck (Family, relationships and networking luck) What you have just mentioned is that your husband is considered a "weak fire" person. And this analysis is based on his bazi. Bazi is about Heaven Luck. We don't live in an isolated world. Although it is fine in theory to say that your husband is a weak fire, therefore, water (blue colour) may drown him. And thus wood (green is more suitable for him. And fire (red) is equally suitable. But as mentioned above, we don't live in isolation. For the home or earth luck or Feng Shui of the home, each home also has it's own ba zi. For example, when Feng Shui is used, here, there are even two acessments needed:- 1. Shapes and forms Feng Shui Usually our external environment has a strong influence on whether how good our earth luck is. 2. Compass School Feng Shui - This encompass both Eight House concept. Best directions and best sectors for the individual. - Flying Star Feng Shui Flying star Feng Shui is used in conjunction with ba zi to analyse each sector of the home. And often, it is acceptable to paint green unless the sector may have #3 quarrels, scandals, lawsuitsetc... Generally, other than to look out for #3 quarrels and sometimes #8, you may "take a risk" to paint the room green. But for the entire home, best or recommended to do a Flying Star audit. For a vehicle, there are two "issues", here:- In the west, some insurance companies did a survey and found that red cars had a higher rate of accidents. The next colour that has a higher rate is grey. Ba zi, aside, the above seems to imply that we should if possible avoid red colour car. Warmest Regards, Cecil Quote: Anonymous wrote: My husband is Weak Fire. He is driving a gold car. Is it true that the colour is not suitable for Weak Fire? Will it helps if we re-paint the car to red? Will red suit him more? Or can Master give a favourable colour him? Our bedroom is light blue. According to his bazi, will it helps him (to be more smooth in career and luck) if we paint the whole house to light green?

Dear Chrissy, Actually the Chinese 7th month has already started (25th July 2006). This year because of the intercalarymonth falling on 7th lunar month, there is an extra 7th month. Therefore, this year, the Chinese 7th month lasts until 21 September 2006. Traditionally, this is more of a Chinese custom of not moving-in during the Chinese 7th month. However, previously, when information flow is not as prevalent or as international as today, many non-Chinese still continue to move-in during (the Chinese 7th month). Thus, if you are not a Chinese nor do not stay in Asia, then, for practical reasons, you can still move-in during "our - Chinese" 7th month. As not all Chinese practices applies "across-the-board" to other countries. Warmest Regards, Cecil P.S. For the Chinese, often it common to do some of the things stated in the attachment - to bring in auspicious luck into the home.You may consider some or select some of the practises.

Dear Anon, Usually, this (toilet at the centre) of the apartment is considered as ONE leak. But often, as mentioned, it is considered as ONLY 1 (ONE) leak. Furthermore, what is exactly at the centrepoint is crucial. If it is the toilet bowl directly at the centrepoint then this is considered1 major leak. But directly at the centrepoint is just the entrance or walk area, and basin, then this is not as bad as the toilet bowl at this direct location. Many homes can do with or afford to have more than 1 leak. And as no two homes or apartments are identical; it is best to "investigate" into each home to check for:- 1. whether there are further or moreleaks? 2. what we can do to reduce these leaks 3. whether there are any sectors which we can improve upon wealth? In general, good external environment equally plays a part to reduce or negate such a leak e.g. toilet at centrepoint! Under Flying Star Feng Shui, homes such as those with NE, SW under current Period 8 Feng Shui often have better qi then the rest of the other flying star sectors. And even if a toilet is at the centrepoint of such homes, they are lessen by say better Feng Shui from such (NE or SW) homes. In order to truly determine what is the degree that the toilet at the centrepoint may or may not affect as much a home is often to do a full Feng Shui audit to determine the degree of it's effect.

Quote: Anonymous wrote: My main door faces my balcony window, and my friend advised me to put straight lucky bamboos (Dracaena)near the window. Facing the balcony from the main door, should I place it on the right or the left side ? How many stalks should I put ? Dear Anon, Under Feng Shui, the main issue, here is said to be " a direct - wealth leak as a result of a straight path from the main door towards your balcony window. Thus, I believe what your friend wanted you to do was to "block" this leak or direct sha qi. If not, it is said that it is difficult to keep money as "money comes and goes out of the home very quickly!". Therefore, the aim is notso much of how many stalks but rather, the idea is to "block" this wealth leak at the balcony area by placing sufficient numbers vs just how many stalks. Again, your question of whether to place the plant(s) on the left side or right side depends on where this direct wealth leak is? It should thus be placedin the direct-line-of-sight of the main door entrance. Alternatively, if you do have a sliding panel (at the balcony area) to prevent rain from pouring into the home, then, this sliding panel should be or act as a partition between the main door and the direct-line-of-sight of or towards the balcony area.

Dear Marilyn, In my opinion, whenever I draw a Flying Star chart, I prefer to draw a "pie-chart" instead of the 9 grid. For your home, I strongly recommend that you use the "pie-chart". This is because, by using the "pie-chart" your analysis can even to extended outwards towards the garden area.

Dear Jessica, 1. It is challenging to provide a comprehensive comment on apartments, as each one is unique. 2. Based on my experience with Feng Shui, I have observed that the layout of an apartment can impact the dynamics of a marriage. 3. Flying Star Feng Shui can be used to identify and address potential issues that may lead to divorce. 4. Certain factors, such as the placement of the main entrance door and the presence of star #3, can contribute to marital problems. 5. Star #3, known as the "quarrels and scandal" star, should be addressed by avoiding water features and using specific colors in certain areas of the apartment. 6. Misplacement of water features can further exacerbate issues related to star #3. 7. The placement of water features in certain areas of the apartment can impact the romantic energy of the space. 8. These are some of the major issues related to marital problems, and there are other factors to consider as well. In Conclusion In conclusion, the layout and Feng Shui of an apartment can significantly influence the dynamics of a marriage, with factors like the placement of the main entrance door and star #3 playing a crucial role in potential marital problems. Addressing these issues through Flying Star Feng Shui techniques can help mitigate the risk of divorce and enhance the romantic energy of the space.

Dear Anon, Based on Flying Star Feng Shui, currently many homes that usually have NE or SW facing and that are Period 8 homes should enjoy better Feng Shui or earth luck. As to the perfect home, one chief concern is the external shapes and forms. As this has a great influence on the home. In addition, it is good that the home or apartment should if possible not be affected too much by direct sunlight. For example, we should avoid homes with critical areas "bathed" by the afternoon sun - especially if it is a wall "soaking in the" afternoon sun e.g. master bedroom wall or children's bedroom; living room etc... Such homes can be warm in the evening. The time where most of us come home to spent time. Quote: Anonymous wrote: i am looking for house now and i know that i should be looking for house facing NE. i found the perfect house which is facing NE and it is a designer house and i like it so much. Currently, it is difficult to say for sure whether red tiles are acceptable or may cause a problem. Under Feng Shui or Flying Star Feng Shui, if you do know how to draw a Flying star chart for this home; then you can understand whether red floor tiles may or may not be suitable for certain sectors of the home. If it covers the entire home then; it may be a wider cause of concern. In general, if one were to plot a Flying star chart and if the sector or location has one or a combination of these stars; then too much red is not favourable for that sector:- #5 misfortune or sickness = Earth (Yellow colour) #2 sickness = Earth (Yellow colour) if the sector has either #5 with or without #2 and with addition of #9 fire (RED) then ideally, it is best not to have red tiles. However, in many instances, extra carpeting can be laid on the floor to reduce the red tiles - without having to change them. In addition, try not to use further red furniture(s) or decorations.

Dear Anon, The consensus amongst many Geomancers are that there is no issue with the purchase of a home or apartment in the Chinese7th Lunar month. The rationale for this is that as you had mentioned, moving-in is physical. And renovations is noisy - disturb the "ghosts". Anything that is tangible or physical - may therefore affect the "ghosts". While purchasing a home or placing a deposit on a new (perhaps yet to be built or completed) home or apartment does not involve "physical" presence at the new home. Look at it this way, even if the "ghosts" knows where our new home is located, but since it has not been built nor completed, yet, how is he/she (ghost) going to go there? Even for those who had purchased a completed home, best not to go ino the home especially to eat / sleep or a combination of eat plus sleep, eat plus bathe or sleep plus bathe there.

Dear Anon, "From what I've read so far, every room is in the wrong place, lighting is bad, beds face wrong way - I am overwhelmed and don'tt know where to start! " My personal advise is that if you are doing Feng Shui on your own, not to do it in a real `hurry'. For those who want to do it immediately should consult a competent Feng Shui practitioner. Otherwise, if you want to do it on your own shoul spent time understanding at LEAST the following MAIN TOPICS:- 1. Shapes and Form 2. Compass Schools: Flying Star and Eight House. Alternatively, many people have lived without ever knowing what Feng Shui is and are equally successful in their live. Some people have also relied on their `sixth-sense' and are equally successful. For the colors, one can use neutral colors such as white or pastel colors for the home. (This is not considering Feng Shui).

Dear Anon, There are two ways at looking into this:- 1. Human Luck Factor Some of us enjoy putting on jewellry or wear some jewellry. And perhaps, make them feel good or even confident of one-self. Drawing a parallel, it is akin to buying somedecorative itemsfor the home. Imagine, a home can orlook very dull without some form of decoration. 2. Under the Five Elements Concept Reference: http://www.geomancy.net/resources/theories/fs-5element.htm Under the Five Elements concept, if we take a careful look at the "destructive" cycle; one can see the "constant" Metal "destroys" Wood or Water "destroys" Fire or Wood "destroys"Earth or Fire "destroys" Metal or Earth "destroys" Water For example, Wood "destroys" Earth. Look at it this way: The roots of a tree (WOOD) crush the earth to get nourishment. While Metal "destroys" wood to gain wealth. For example, imainge we have a block of wood, which costs as little as $1. But if we can use metal implement to carve out an object, this can cost much more than the $1. Thus, here, metal adds value to the wood! The idea behind this concept of Destructive cycle is that there is one condition to this: one must be a STRONG element. Thus, if you are a STRONG wood person, then, the metal implement that helps to carve out an object of art will not "harm" the person. But if one is considered as a WEAK wood, person then wearing too much metal (gold) may not be too good. If we base on this Five Elements concept. Warmest Regards, Cecil Quote: Anonymous wrote: I would like to know if this is true that person belongs to wood element should not wear gold and silver.

Dear Anon, This is a very good question. Generally, in my opinion, this is very common in the West. Especially, if there is a "lovely" bay-window just behind the bed-head. But locally in Singapore, this is often not a good idea for the following reasons. And these reasons are often "common-sense". In Singapore, majority of the homes are apartments (flats) or high-rise and it is often not too good an idea to have the bed-head against the window:- 1. Unfriendly neighbours! There are occassions where inconsiderate neighbours throw out cigarette butts and sometimes it may fall down into an open window. And if are beds are close to or next to the window, there can be a probable chance of catching fire. 2. Failure to install grilles or lock the windows. The main concern about high rise living is that often, many may have young ones (a child that is 1year plus to 3 or 4 years old). Imagine if they see superman shows or accidentally climb up the bed and they may accidentally fall off the window. 3. Windy / Facing direct sunlight e.g. afternoon sun Often, in high rise living, there may be occassions that wind or rain or sunlightmay come thru the window. Unless of course we do not open the windows. However, if one lives in a landed property and if some of the safety considerations are taken into consideration - it is not a major issue to place the bed-head against the windows or "bay windows".

Dear Anon, 1. It is important to understand the Five Elements Concept. References: http://www.geomancy.net/resources/theories/fs-5element.htmand http://www.geomancy.net/resources/theories/fs-colours.htm 2. For example, if one has a small business or single proprietorship, then, guidelines of namecard (especially logo designs) can be based on Feng Shui:- 2.1 If for example, the individual isconsidered as a "weak water" person and under the Five elements concept, his/herbest elements are: Metal (metal helps water to grow); while water is also favourable for a "weak water" person. 2.2 Since metal is associated with white, silver and gold, a name card may incorporate this colour in-conjunction withwater colours - which are represented by blue, black or grey. 2.3 Shapes: Since metal element is represented by circles, then a logo can include this shape. Andwater element represents "waves" or "wavy" lines, this can also be included in the design of a name card. 3. Thus, for a weakwater person, his/her name cardcan use any combinations of above. 4. Feng Shui ruler and namecard dimensions: One has to be realistic as to the size of a name-card. For example, the imperial briefcase or those commonly carried, by the English is based on 17inches width or roughly 43 cm. Under the Feng Shui ruler: AUSPICIOUS: 1inch to 2inches range is considered auspicious. INAUSPICIOUS: From 3inches to 6 1/2 inches AUSPICIOUS: 6 1/2 inches to 10 1/2 inches Thus if one wants to tailor made a namecard based on Feng Shui ruler measures for Yang Feng Shui, then a name card could be:- 2 inches by 2 inches - This is very small and may not be practical rite? The next best Feng Shui alternative is a name card 2 inches by 6 1/2 inches. If this measurement has been choosen, then it does not fit into many peoples name card holder; it can easily be thrown away! etc... Thus it is strongly recommended to just stick to the existing common standard card measurements will do...

Dear Sophia, Symbolically under Feng Shui, it is good like you mention to rectify such "physical" leaks in the shop.

Dear Ken, In my opinion, the best way to understand or have a better understanding of the whole approach to "Luck" is to simply understand the "Holy Trinity of Luck":- Here, this holy trinity of luck are:- 1. Heaven Luck - What is suppose to be - what we are born with (or without)! 2. Earth Luck - Feng Shui of our home / office .... 3. Human Luck - Relationships with each other and pets can be considered under this category! Under Para 3, above, frankly, we should not be looking at things like : a cat suitable for my ba zi or a dog; white mice? Guinea pig, rabbit? But rather, the responsibilities to care for them etc... As most of us are aware, dogs have been bred for many years as a companion for humans. Cats are also bred ...here. While, like you have mentioned, snakes have always being associated with "evil" e.g. enticing Adam to eat an apple... (Adam and eve kind of saga)...And in particular, they are slippery .... Overall, under Human Luck factors, we often see or (I often see) newly married couples .... rearing pet dogs or cats. But later, when they really have children... many still keep them while some simply change their priorities.. or simply have no time to up-keep their pets! In my opinion, we should not match our horoscope with the type of animals to be kept! Since there are large ones! Such as an OX, Tiger (fierce and unpredictable and endangered) ... etc... Warmest Regards, Cecil Quote: K Chin wrote: I have been told that, different pets may affect one's luck and I'm wondering if this is true.

Dear Norman, Based on your last message, it would seem that your home's Flying Star chart should be a Period 7 chart. And in addition, you just mentioned that your home is a South facing apartment. Since you did not mention which South facing apartment it is: as it could either be a South 1 (165 degrees) or South 2 (180 deg.) or South 3 (195 degrees). Most likely, if your home is a South 2 (180) or South 3 (195 degrees) then under the Flying star Feng shui, this south facing frontage has a mountain #8 water #6 and base (palace star) of #2. Under the current Flying Star Feng Shui:- #8 = current prosperity #9 = future prosperity #1 = future, future prosperity. Well it is hard to understand where your fish tank is currently based on description (only). But, if your homehas a Period 7 S2 or S3 Flying Star chart then, it would not be adviceable to place a water feature at the frontage (south) of the home. This is because as mentioned above, S2 or S3 home has a MOUNTAIN star #8 (which is associated with networking, relationship luck) and a water feature, will DROWN this mountain. For example it is like digging a hole; placing water and literally drowning or SINKING the mountain wealth sector!

Dear Keith, Actually, this is related to the concept of the "frontage" of the home. Here, what Feng Shui is most concerned about is the relation of the frontage of the home vs the amount of "openings" at the frontage. For example, most or all homes will either have door(s); windows or windows cum sliding doors etc... Under Feng Shui, what is MOST important is that the FRONTAGE of a home should be PROPORTIONATE to the frontage of the home. For example, if a home as a set of main doors and in addition, there is a row of sliding doors: the situation, here is that if all these doors and sliding windows are opened, it would suggest that if one has marriageable family members in the home e.g. a son etc... they will often not get married. The solution is not to open all the openings of the home at one go. In Singapore, it is most common also to find homes with double doors and/or double-equal doors or doors that have one smaller-leaf. Both are equally acceptable! So long as the doors open inwards. (Excluding any grille gates that logically have to open outwards.) Thus in my opinion, this is not the main concern. But the main concern as mentioned earlier is the proportion of opening at the frontage of the home vs the entire frontage. Warmest Regards, Cecil
