Staff Cecil Lee Posted January 12, 2017 Staff Share Posted January 12, 2017 Case Study 1: Three RED FLAGS to take note when selecting a Feng Shui Master: Case Study 1. Practical approach to Feng Shui, Today 1. You can use this check-list to ask your potential Feng Shui Master (FSM) what type of concepts that he/she will use to access your home. 2. Recently, a new client showed me her former FSM’s audit report of her home 3. All the FSM did was take an existing copy of the house layout and just look at the final piece of work. (Note: Sensitive information of my new client's report was masked out in RED):- 3.1. Based on my observation: the geomancer use one concept Compass School Feng Shui. 3.2. Compass School Feng Shui: a. Eight House or Eight Mansions with Flying Stars. 4. For a full comprehensive Feng Shui audit (usually 2 visits or more - other than a simple peace-of-mind 1 visit) 4.1. You should instead be provided with lots more: 5. It is only right to insist that the FSM provide something useful. 6. Geomancy.net understands your needs and ensure that you get full value for what you paid for. 7. The reason is that few (if any) can remember an hour and a half to Two hours worth of advice! 6. In addition; if you engage an ID; you bring your proposals with you for the discussion(s). 6.1 And even pass the ID a copy of our detailed and colourful reports. 7. Feng Shui is no longer like the past where a geomancer simply scribbles on a sheet of paper. 8. Or the poor you or your poor partner; has to become an exhausted secretary for that day. 9. A hidden benefit of an FSM preparing detailed proposals shows that the FSM cares for you and your family: 10. Here, the FSM takes an effort to properly prepare e.g. Individual Ba Zi reports, Eight House, Flying Star etc.. 11. And begin to analyse and complete your review. 12. During the meeting to discuss your proposals e.g. Options 1 & 2; minimal writing is needed. And more time spent to look at the proposals and additional alternatives given that all the templates are clearly spelt out. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Staff Cecil Lee Posted January 15, 2017 Author Staff Share Posted January 15, 2017 Case Study 2: Exploiting a human loophole: "Greed begets Greed" 1. Many unscrupulus Feng Shui Masters (FSMs) will tell their client to buy commercial products in the name of Feng Shui. 2. These FSMs do so by telling us that we also will enjoy riches after placing such and such a product. "You have to buy this... where? I have in stock!" 3. Some food for thought... 4. When the buying stops; the selling can! 5. Please spread the word to your family members, friends and as many people as possible this message to do this:- Wishing you and your loved ones: Health, Wealth and Happiness Always!

Staff Cecil Lee Posted March 16, 2018 Author Staff Share Posted March 16, 2018 Case Study 3: The Art of Name Calling: In the world of commerce, we have: A General Manager or a Managing Director? What about Feng Shui? The Art of Name Calling: Commercial = A General Manager or a Managing Director? Feng Shui? = Many Geomancers today are self-proclaiming also to be a GM = Grand Master/Mistress to satisfy their ego pangs... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Staff Cecil Lee Posted August 14, 2018 Author Staff Share Posted August 14, 2018 Case Study 4: "My motive is that I want to earn money from renovating your home + additional Feng Shui income" Welcome to the world of "I can do everything for you!" Gd morning Master, I have a friend came cover and took the flat facing direction. He told me is E (East) but I notice you mentioned NE. will there be a problem. He asked if the facing was taken in the house or ground. I am not sure. What should I tell him? Thanks. According to my client, his "friend" actually had a motive: "He was one of renovator and said he do fengshui as well" No wonder that this renovator tries to confuse and ask my client to use his service, instead. LOL Unfortunately for him, he messed with the wrong Feng Shui master. As I am very meticulous and even have facts to refute his irresponsible claims. Fortunately, my client who knows me well; as I have seen both his previous home as well as him parents home knew better than to trust this renovator's story. The above 65 degrees shows that the unit faces Flying Stars NE3. Another reading using the profile of Grantral Mall @ Clementi to do an additional confirmation. Given that the Clementi Towers block 441A is parallel to this mall. The reading exactly shows 65 degrees or NE3 facing. On-site physical compass readings also confirm the above readings showing + - 65 degrees by myself on a 2nd visit plus an earlier the also 1st visit by Master Robert Lee. Just imagine if my client was taken-in by this renovator. Assuming the renovator uses East facing... what will happen with such a wrong reading? Won't my client's Feng Shui be messed up by this renovator? Perhaps the renovator should just stick to renovations? And not practise fake or con or scare-tactics Feng Shui just to eat both pies? No wonder sometimes this is appropriate, here: "A jack of all trades is a master of none!" LOL Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Staff Cecil Lee Posted August 14, 2018 Author Staff Share Posted August 14, 2018 Case Study 5: "Bait and Hook Business Model" A common business model is the bait and hook business model. It's a pretty basic concept most of us are really aware of. If yawn.. please skip this. The service is sold to the "victim" at a low price. This is the bait. The hook comes when customers are told to keep buying various products to enhance the purpose of supplementing the low price service. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Staff Cecil Lee Posted August 14, 2018 Author Staff Share Posted August 14, 2018 Case Study 6: Fake Feng Shui will always flourish due to constant demand for it. 1. As this is an unregulated area, fake Feng Shui is always around. 2. If the Feng Shui Master's website sells products.... this is a RED Flag! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Staff Cecil Lee Posted August 16, 2018 Author Staff Share Posted August 16, 2018 Case Study 7: Actung! Caution! Amulets and Lucky Charms! Hello Master, I have heard and read so many times about so many cures and tons of amulets to ward off bad luck and one such amulet that a lot of people are raving about nowadays is the arowana ring. One fengshui expert says if you wear this ring it cures most everything as far as the good flow of energy in and out of your house. It sort of replaces the need to have an arowana fish in an aquarium inside your house. Please enlighten me on this. Oh and by the way, the fengshui expert says you can only buy it from him, anywhere else will not guarantee that its gonna work. Thank you so much Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Staff Cecil Lee Posted November 22, 2018 Author Staff Share Posted November 22, 2018 Case Study 9: How to recognise Fake Western Feng Shui (FWFS) vs Authentic Traditional Feng Shui (ATFS) 1. The only thing they share in common is the word “Feng Shui”. Otherwise a Fake is but a Fake. 2. Western FWFS comes in two forms: 2.1 Black Hat Sect or Black Hat Tantric Sect or simply called B.T.B. Uses a compass to determine the front door. Then superimpose a fixed bagua template. 2.2 Western FFS: Also uses a fixed bagua template. The only difference is to align the frontage of the layout towards the main door direction. 3. Try to avoid these two Fake practises. No basis in real Feng Shui. 4. Once one is aware of this; avoid posting future Fake practises in this forum. It is like approaching a genuine parts shop and asking for fake parts and services. 5. For those who had studied : Michael Porter's concept in the field of Strategic Management:- 5.1. Porter's five forces analysis & his barriers to entry. Authentic Feng Shui shares this common trait: "entry barriers are higher" 5.2 Authentic Feng Shui takes years of study and training: and involved lots of science and art of Feng Shui. 5.2 Fake Feng Shui uses a one size fits all "Fixed" Template (rubbish FS). Entry barriers are low. As everyone can use the same fix template bagua chart and go bullshit their clients. Anytime anywhere. Entry level are low. Because such Feng Shui is called a No Substance stuff. 6. Find our more:- Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Staff Cecil Lee Posted November 22, 2018 Author Staff Share Posted November 22, 2018 Case Study 10: Recognise Fixed template Bagua Map is a modern invention or Fake! The use of headers like Helpful People & Travel, Reputation, Family & Money, Wisdom & Knowledge, Love & Relationship, Creativiey & Children. Authentic Traditional Feng Shui does not use (JUST) one single Fixed template Bagua Map on it's own. As Feng Shui is not one size fits all. Good news is that if one is in Asia, unlikely chance any practitiones will APE such a no-brainer "Westhern Method". But stupidity holds no boundary...

Staff Cecil Lee Posted January 26, 2019 Author Staff Share Posted January 26, 2019 Case Study 11: Shifu, my another friend's fengshui master told her not to live in Pasir Ris? Do u know why? Does Pasir Ris have very bad fengshui? 1. Feng Shui Masters (FSMs) must always act responsibly. 2. Most of us interact with a FSM for a short-time. 3. I have come across many of such FSMs telling their client not to use the Master bedroom PERMANENTLY or in this case live in the west. 4. These FSMs are very extreme in their views. 5. It is just like saying Singapore is in the South inauspicious! Go live in the "North". Where? Malaysia = North = North of Singapore = Johor Bahru, KL or Perak or Thailand. Huh? What logic is this? Agree! "Yeah. I found his line of reasoning very extreme." Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Staff Cecil Lee Posted February 6, 2019 Author Staff Share Posted February 6, 2019 Case Study 12: Another extreme view of Feng Shui "Hello, I look for the simple answer about best sleep direction in 2019. I found that north-west and south-east are bad because of Tai Sui. West are bad because of 3 killings. So what is optimal direction for '84 rat to sleep ?" 1. Really? How many of us do this sort of thing? 2. Here, Feng Shui has ready gone to the pigs & dogs... 3. It is ridiculous to even think of this. 4. First, for practical reasons also; many of us walk into a bedroom and immediately know where to place the bed. This is because usually there are limitations because of the location of bedroom door / windows / attached toilet-door. 5. Again, this is an extreme form of Feng Shui. Perhaps suits those with either an unsound mind or too free - nothing else to do, type of person. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Staff Cecil Lee Posted August 8, 2019 Author Staff Share Posted August 8, 2019 Case Study 14: "Paid so much for a Feng Shui audit but only receive one piece of paper?" "Cuz we dun have this type of detail analysis the last time. A bit of shock haha" 1. Client only receive this for her previous Feng Shui audit:- 2. And Yes, the Fee was not cheap!

Staff Cecil Lee Posted August 18, 2019 Author Staff Share Posted August 18, 2019 Case Study 15: Is Feng Shui a religion? 1. No, Feng Shui is purely scientific and not linked to any religion. 2. Recently, I noticed a google ad on Geomancy.net. It touted a 3rd generation practitioner. 3. Curious, I checked the site. And found the sale of various commercial products. LOL 4. Thus this is a reminder to self and for everyone to do a check. 5. Nowadays everyone has a website = cannot hide this. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Staff Cecil Lee Posted November 6, 2019 Author Staff Share Posted November 6, 2019 (edited) Yes, we could have made millions. But this is truly not right! Do you know that Feng Shui cures and/or enhancements can be ordinary items in a home or at most costs several dollars ONLY. Say no to such Commercial Feng Shui products!
