An overview of my modified Loupan featuring a heavy brass compass

This is a great addition! The inclusion of an ebook with practical tips makes this Feng Shui starter kit especially useful for beginners and enthusiasts, regardless of which type of compass is being used. With the right knowledge and careful procedure, any compass—whether specialized, ordinary, or in a smartphone—can provide reliable Feng Shui orientation.

My personally modified Loupan compass This is my personally modified Loupan compass, which I purchased for just $20 at a local antique shop many years ago. There was a larger version available for around $40, but I opted for the more compact size, which is easier to handle during Feng Shui assessments. What makes this compass special is its inner core - a brass-covered mechanism designed to shield the needle from external magnetic interference such as reinforced steel columns, wire mesh in concrete flooring, or nearby metallic objects. This added layer of protection helps ensure more reliable and consistent readings, even in challenging environments where conventional compasses might be affected. Having a brass-shielded compass is particularly valuable for Feng Shui practice, as it allows for greater accuracy. With this modification, I can confidently take readings indoors or near structural elements without worrying as much about magnetic distortion. It’s a simple but substantial upgrade for anyone serious about achieving precise compass measurements in their Feng Shui work. This compass is fully encased in a thick layer of brass, providing comprehensive protection against magnetic interference from all directions—including the base and the full 360-degree perimeter. This design ensures more stable and accurate readings, especially in environments where magnetic distortion from nearby materials, such as steel columns or wire mesh in concrete, can be a concern. To further enhance its usability, I've added red markings as personalized guides to make alignment and reference points clearer during readings. These custom indicators help me quickly identify key directions and improve the overall precision of my Feng Shui assessments. The confidence in taking readings from heavily reinforced structures is well-founded, especially with the brass-encased Loupan compass. That thick brass casing acts as a reliable shield against the kinds of magnetic interference common in industrial buildings and commercial towers, with their dense steel columns and mesh. It's a significant advantage for achieving accurate Feng Shui measurements, even in environments that would typically pose a challenge to regular compasses. It's also impressive that the larger brass compass has held up so well over the years. The base protractor, remaining in excellent condition and still easy to read despite turning yellow, is a testament to the durability and lasting quality of the instrument. That kind of longevity is invaluable for practitioners who need reliable tools in various field conditions. With these instruments, one can continue the assessments with confidence, knowing that environmental interference is minimized and your readings are trustworthy—no matter how challenging the surroundings. The reliance on this compass, especially in large complexes for MNC clients and banks with extensive and thick structural beams, is completely justified. The robust brass casing effectively shields the needle from magnetic interference, making it a highly dependable tool even in environments where standard compasses might be compromised by reinforced steel or structural elements. Those red guide markings you added also offer quick reference points, which can be particularly useful when conducting multiple assessments in expansive office layouts or industrial settings. This combination of customization and protection has enabled me to carry out Feng Shui assessments with a high degree of confidence and accuracy, no matter how challenging the structural environment. My experience demonstrates the importance of having a reliable, well-adapted compass for professional consulting in modern, heavily reinforced buildings, where precision is non-negotiable.

My reflection captures much of what’s happening to iconic, old-school spots like Chin Mee Chin Confectionery. The combination of rising labor costs and evolving tastes has made it increasingly tough for traditional bakeries to survive, especially when most people aren’t seeking out classic sweet treats every day. Its location upstream along East Coast Road doesn’t help either, considering the many businesses in that stretch which haven’t taken off or were forced to close. Added to that, shifts in church crowd habits (like those from The Holy Family) have dried up a dependable pool of regulars. Competition from modern chains and coffee shops is a major part of the story. With Starbucks, Ya Kun, and countless mall cafes grabbing attention, the old neighborhood confectionery is easily overlooked. Forty years ago, a place like Chin Mee Chin was a weekend institution for locals, and stories like this where a friend’s parent worked there were common. Ultimately, places like Chin Mee Chin carry lots of memories, but staying afloat in today’s competitive and rapidly changing environment is a tough challenge for any heritage business.

Hi Master Lee, my contractor forgot to put the coins in kitchen area. In this case, do we still put the coins in the other areas? Fyi We are no longer adding the storeroom. Reply: The placement of coins is either place or not placed. There is no other "solutions". Leave it. Might as well tell the contractor forgot to pay him for his service. Just leave it.. nothing else can be done once the tiles are permanently laid.

Good morning master cecil... Sorry to interrupt ur schedule but I wish to check/understand more about moving of current bed to new house.

Majority of Feng Shui Masters are a Feng Shui Shop in disguise Ask: "Must I buy from YOU?" When the buying Stops, the selling CAN!

1. Once the steps are constructed, now or in the past, there is nothing much one can do, here. "No point dwelling in the past". 1.1 Auspicious number of steps are considered as "nice-to" and not a must have. 2. Many Feng Shui concepts are based on common sense. Don't believe? Just ask Mr Humpty Dumpty... 2.1 Just that many of us don't see it that way. 2.2 Touchwood... if an over zealous child were to say run out of the bedroom and straight towards the stairs... more of a safety issue: thus has it's origins in pure common sense. 3. Malevolent Qi? Does it apply to this situation? 3.1. Chinese belief that entities or spirits can only move in a straight line. 3.2 Thus not ideal to have a "straight" path. 3.3. This has more to do with a gate or a passage way. 3.4. Thus most bridges constructed in the past are winding. 3.5 Here, there is very little to do with a room going strait to the stairs. But some may relate it to this. 3.6 Even so good news is that majority of stairs have a turn with a landing... Thus actually this is a poor example of "malevolent qi". And in the first place should not be....
