1. If you want to look youthful; in my opinion, never become a politician! 2. Just observe many hardworking Cabinet Minisiters and one realise; how fast they age! 3. Could this be one of the reasons, why so many smart persons don't bother to become politicians?

1. Some bright or primary colors if used at the wrong location may affect certain situations:- For example under the Flying star concept: Bright Yellow & or Bright Red@ location(s) especially those with #5 and/or #2 and/or #9 etc... can affect health - ranging from constant health issues to some needing operations. Bright Green and or Bright Blue @ location(s) with #3 and/or combined with WS#1 can affect relationships / marriage / family issues / lawsuits. While using Bright Blue in the kitchen can affect a woman's health and family wealth and if it also falls at Mountain Star MS#8 - will drown such luck. 2. Above are just some of the examples, I can quickly think of. 3. The most critical areas for 2010 are: Five Yellow at South-West Grand Duke at East-North-East, 60 Degrees And the Three Killings at North. 4. If you can do painting at South before Feb 14th, that is best, but if you can't at least; although it is #3 sector; the consolation is that it is not at the above three MAJOR concern areas.

Remarkable! Ever since we adopted this new logo; our turnover became low or negligible! Wow!

We treat our people with respect; good pay; excellent health care, yet, one by one has left our company? Other than myself; none of my workers are more than 2 months old in my company! Please help? I studied organisational behaviour, applied all theory Y senarios; even allow workers to work at home and fat pay check? Can you take a look at my company logo and recommend a solution? Please, help, help!

1. Please note that Period 8 ranges from 2004 to 2023. During the past few months, I being posting this link very often:- http://www.geomancy.net/resources/yearly-forecast/fortunes-2010.htm 2. Go check it out. 3. Must everything have a cure? In fact, in many instances, the commonsense cure is not to do it. We plan to put up a small business in front of the house, which is better, locate it in the Northeast or Northwest part. I'm East group, Kua4. The house was built in Period 8. 4. Please note that this is a free GENERAL advice forum.

These are some considerations: 1. If a sector also has good qi especially those coming in thru a window, good to open such windows to allow qi to flow into the home and when doing so, it does help the centrepoint. 2. Usually after heavy down-pour; good to regularly air the entire home e.g. open all "openings" if possible for a short-while - for qi to refresh into the home. 3. Some homes at the centrepoint has clear space, this is good for #8 at the centrepoint. But this is meant more for a home with 20 year flying star and when one wants to built the home from scratch. 4. If a sector has good star(s); and if one can spent time or activity at that sector; that is good. 5. Unfortunately, we have to accept that not all homes does have what I described under Para 3 and/or 4.

1. Effective Feng Shui is a holistic approach. Ruchir P. wrote: Hi , I have bedroom located in south west direction of house. The bedroom also has attached bathroom with toilet in south west direction of room. Is that good? 2. In two sentences, I really can't possible tell. As no Shapes and Forms nor Compass School of Feng Shui is used, here. 3. Holistic Feng Shui is about: 3.1. Enhancing good qi in a home and 3.2. Reducing or neutrasing bad qi in a home. 4. Your question is too general. 5.

1. If you so interested in getting "perfect measurements" the easiest is to go purchase a Feng Shui ruler. Find out more about the measurements:- http://www.geomancy.net/resources/theories/fs-ruler.htm 2. Again, unfortunately, you make Feng Shui reallysounds so complicated: what with entire facade 15 meters etc... 3. Frankly, again, you are the one and only person; throughout the existence of this forum as far back as the 1996's that posts such ... 4. If you really are so into measurements, I sincerely advice you to go learn VASTU, the Indian art of "Feng Shui". 5. As in fact, last decade or so, there are some in India, which strictly build homes that strictly must fit precise measurements: room by room kind of situation. 6. Hey! Feng Shui or Chinese Art of Feng Shui is more practical. Only certain measurements, try nice to have. And even in the forbidden cities, the concept of 9 or 999 are very important. But to make sure that when we "Feng Shui" build a home, everything must fit Feng Shui measurements - is not practical. 7. Frankly, those who are too obsessed with Feng Shui and in Singapore, we thought that some are kiasu, but you are the ultimate "kaisee" fella. When I took the measurement of the facade from the ends of the perimeter wall and measurement of the steel door: 1) the entire facade is - 15meters 2) the driveway door - 4meters 3) smaller door for person's entrance - 1.5meter Is this size proportion to the facade?

Facing direction of a home does not necessarily mean that you need e.g. the main, front, door. You mentioned: "Our main door is a sliding glass door facing east. " Usually this should be the frontage or facing direction of your "home" especially if there is "clear space" at the front for qi to congregate. Again, it depends on any blockages e.g. sides are "neighbourhood buildings" etc... If the home is facing e.g. a lake vs the frontage is facing the roadway.. sometimes, the view of the lake could be the frontage. Need judgemental skills.

Yes, this is on a Free General Advice forum. Such detalied information, has to be analysed or looked at with reference to one's DD/MM/YY & HH.

Please refer to the following resources Part I - Facing Direction Of A Home http://forum.geomancy.net/phpforum/article.php?bid=2&fid=6&mid=15672&new= Part II - Facing Direction Of A Home http://forum.geomancy.net/phpforum/article.php?bid=2&fid=6&mid=15673&new= Again, this is the first time in my whole life where I encounter : steel doors, entrance, driveway door, smaller door and so many wordings on doors. Frankly, Feng Shui is not so complicated, but a newbie reading this will think that Feng Shui belongs to rocket-science. Susan J. wrote: Dear Master, Our steel doors (one smaller for person's entrance and driveway door for car's entrance) are in line with the perimeter wall; and also parallel to the door entrance to the living room. Which one is considered the main door of the house? 1) Is it the smaller door on the same line of the perimeter wall 2) or the door in the driveway on the same line of the perimeter wall 3) or the internal door attached to the structure of the house? What if the external door is facing North? the main entrance to the living room is facing East? Which direction should be used in determining the facing of the house?

Frankly, even for Catholics, why is there so much concern of taboos especially for dismantling and post mantling? For regilious matters, since you are Catholic, you easily just approach your church elders (fathers or sisters) if you are still so concern about such things.

I do use my date of birth to count for the Heavenly Stems and Twelve Earthly Branches and I face a problen of counting Heavenly Stems, Please assist me, thanks .

Regards Tan Kah Yeow Everything is correct accept that if the remainder is 0, avoid deducting the last "10". = 50 - 10 - 10 - 10 - 10 = remainder is 10

1. Frankly, there is no major issue, just continue to safe-keep the Virgin Mary figure and occassionally remind the previous owner to remove it since they are the onces that request for it's return. 2. If you want to, as a last resort, tell them that say by two months time; if it is not collected, then you have no choice but to dispose of it. 3. Many Christians often mistake the Catholic practise of "respecting" Virgin Mary. When Catholics "pray" to Virgin Mary, it is just a mark of respect for the mother of Jesus, that's all. It's a pity that many Christian elders use this as "ammunition" that this is some kind of "devil worship" - which frankly, in my opinion is not true. 4. For example, in Singapore, it is truly a pity. Some parents remain free-thinkers or buddhist. And their children subsequently converted into Christianity. And these children are told and even "refuse" to hold joss-sticks to offer their last prayers to their deceased parent. Catholics are more open, and if told to do so, they do so willingly. Holding joss-sticks to the dead to many Chinese is just a mark of respect and not worship in this sense. 5. In my opinion, I feel that amongst all; the Catholics are the most tolerant amongst all "Chirstians". Sorry, for the side-track.

1. For the lay person, please use the simple to understand summary and the pre analysed information e.g. auspicious, inauspicious, average, mixed blessings etc. 2. For paid reports where we provide expert help; we use such information (footnotes) if necessary to rank or fine tune our recommendations for our clients. For free reports, as mentioned earlier, use the easy to understand information: for example, things like auspicious, average and even very inauspicious is clear-cut already. 3. Everything in the free report is similar to the paid report except no hourly timing analysis is given.

1. For religious altar: 1.1. Often some bring it into the new home a few days earlier. For example; every 1st day of each lunar month (expect many don't like the 7th month) and/or the 15th day of each lunar month are good days. No need even to use other methods to determine which is a good day to bring it in. 1.2. Of course, the link you had mentioned showing one's good dates are equally good days also to bring them in. 1.3. If one intends to bring in a completely brand new "god" e.g. Quan Yin can always do so after move-in and on either the 1st day or 15th day of each lunar month as mentioned under Para 1.1. 1.4. Else, if one's existing home already has a god, then if there is a new altar, then this item should be the first to go into the home. Or if one reuse an existing altar; then bring in the altar at the same time and arrange it / place the god in it's proper place first. 2. It is nice to bring in the god(s) during the yang timing. 3. Moving-in furnitures can be done during the course of the day or as I had mentioned in a recently enquiry; even these items can be brought in several days earlier.... no issue. 4. Usually, open the door throw in the pineapple. (My move-in procedure does not use rice and salt - only the first time open door procedure). Then move in the altar. Open the windows / tap water; and then move in other essential items. 5. Frankly, para 4 is non religious nor rocket-science stuff. If one does anything out of the above sequence except for the priority given to the altar, no major issue.

1. Further to what I had mentioned, even the country with one of the largest population and the country where all Chinese come from celebrates Chinese New Year from 14 Febto 16 Feb: TheSpring Festival. http://www.worldtravelguide.net/country/58/public_holidays/Far-East-Asia/China.html 2. From the above link, the mother of all Chinese culture also uses purely the Lunar calendar and not Xia (Hsia - seasonal) calendar. 4 February 2010 is no where to be found although it is Xia calendar's Start of Spring. 3. In fact, Taiwan, which has the largest pool of Chinese outside of China does not even consider 4th February anywhere in their calendar as a holiday. Taiwan has the longest celebration of Chinese New Year:- http://www.timeanddate.com/calendar/?year=2010&country=71 As this link shows, Taiwan celebrates Chinese New Year from the eve 13th February to 17 February 2010. 4. The morale of the story: the factsspeak for themselves. And 14th Feburary is truly the official recognised date for the 1st day of Chinese NewYear for China, Singapore,Malaysia, Taiwan, Hong Kong. And these countries coverapproximately 80 percent or moreof all Chinese in the world.

1. Chinese calendar is based on Lunar calendar. 2.1 Western date: 04 Feb 2010 (Thu) Lunar Calendar equivalent: 2009, 12th month, 21 day 2.2 Western date:14 Feb 2010 (Sun) Lunar Calendar equivalent: 2010, 1st month, 1 day 2.3 Western date:15 Feb 2010 (Mon) Lunar Calendar equivalent: 2010, 1st month, 2 day 3. On Western date of: 04 Feb 2010 (Thu) isbased on Xia (Hsia) calendar; this is the start of spring or Li Chun. Xia calendar is based on seasons especially useful for farmers planting or harvesting their crops. 4.Chinese New Year always falls on the 1st day of the 1st lunar month. Thus 14 February 2010 is the 1st day that Chinese New Year is widely celebrated. 4.1 Singapore celebrates Chinese New Year on 14 February. But as it is a Sunday, the custom for my country is an extra day: thus 15th and 16th February are holidays. http://www.calendarlabs.com/online-calendar.php?h=1&c=9 From the link, above offically my country don't recognise 4 February as any holiday. 4.2Hong Kongcelebrates Chinese New Year on 13 February (starting from Eve of Chinese New Year).And as the 1st day of CNYis a Sunday, the custom for Hong Kong is an extra day: thus 15th and 16th February are holidays. http://www.calendarlabs.com/online-calendar.php?h=1&c=3 Hong Konger's being a prominet user of the Xia (Hsia - seasonal calendar) themselves does not accord 4 February as a holiday). In general Xia calendar is a calendar of convenience as many of the ba zi "produced" in Hong Kong are often inaccurate - especially when one is born in the grey areas. 4.3 Malaysia, celebrates Chinese New Year on 14 Feburay and 15 February, that's all. http://www.malaysiavacationguide.com/malaysiacalendar2010.html 5. To find out more about what is the Chinese Lunar Calendar vs the Xia (Hsia) calendar, can view this link:- http://forum.geomancy.net/phpforum/article.php?bid=2&fid=2&mid=23906&new=

1. Frankly, this "Chinese New Year" thing specifically applies more to the Chinese. 2. For other races, there should not be a major issue so long as:- 2.1. You are not a Chinese or half-Chinese 2.2. Not in a predominantly Chinese majority occupied region 3. Under 2.2. in a multi-racial country like Singapore, I have personally seen Malays took the opportunity to move-house on Chinese New Year - as they use non-Chinese movers. 4. So, this whole thing about not moving or moving during Chinese New Year, frankly is not related to Feng Shui. It is related more to one's individual culture. 5. Thus, if one is a non-Chinese; and if the day is considered auspicious; can seriously consider moving during the Chinese New Year period. 6. Chinese New Year lasts a whole 15 days. And again for practical reasons, even "we" Chinese have to start work within the 15 days. As many Chinese Singaporeans are salaried works - and the saying goes: "it is not like their grand father owns the company" or if one happens to be a Chinese in China - where, they need to travel a long distance to their home town and work stops for 1 or more week. 7. Thus for practical reasons; for example this year; in Singapore we celebrate Chinese New Year from 14th February to 16th February. Thus the majority of Singapore salaried workers resume work on the 17th February 2009. 8. For the Chinese, or those who follow tradition; most open shop (own business) on "Yang days". Yang is represented by odd number e.g. 1, 3, 5, 7. Thus, to draw a parallel, many shops prefer to open on the 3rd day or 5th or even 7th day of Chinese New Year as opposed to Yin days e.g. 2nd, 4th day of the Chinese New Year. 9. So the morale of the story: "If Tom, Dick and Harry are non-Chinese, one need not follow the ways of or all things Chinese! " Khris K. wrote: Thanks for your speedy reply. Therefore, we will try and find a different date to move in. How many days after Chinese New Year is best to move in? What exactly constitutes moving in? Is it the 'Moving In Ritual' or the day when all the furniture move in and you end up staying indefinitely. With regards to the 'Moving In Ritual', would you suggest sprinkling rice, salt and green beans across the entire house? this is a newhouse that we have just built. Thanks again in advance.
