Water Tank : Thanks a lot for your informative views about water tank & company logo.

Dear Cecil,
Your humorous comments under Property (to buy condos) on family 4 pillars is really hilarious & very interesting. I had a good laugh, which is relaxing after a hectic stressful day.
1. A period 7 office dealing in fire & metal industry has auspicious flying stars of #7, #1, #7 for their main door (NE). But their office?s signboard & logo faces a? lift? (elevator) in a High-rise building.
Curious to know what are the consequences?
2. A bedroom has #9, #9, #5 but yearly star #8. What are the interpretations & cures?
3. Noticed, some double storey terrace house have ?water tank? on top of their roof? Is that good?
Thank you
Regards
Wincash

Under Feng Shui, the key success factors are:
1. Where possible, try to use a three element logo.
For a logo, there are two ways of looking at it:
1.1 Usually, this is based on the ba zi of the owner or partners.
1.2 Logos based on the business.
Here, since the company deals with fire and metal. A harmonious logo MAY (CAN) consists of three elements:
Fire (usually Red is used)
Metal (usually white background or gold colour is used)
The extra element should be: Earth (Yellow).
Under the productive sequence of the five elements concept:
Fire produce Earth. Which in turn supports Metal.
1.3 For a logo panel, always go for the `harmony of yin and yang'.
Thus if the length of the logo is: 89 cm then the width should be say 42.
(Yin is even numbers e.g. 2, 4, 6, 8 etc...)
(Yang is odd numbers e.g. 1, 3, 5, 7 etc...)
1.4 If the main entrance is facing NE, then, more importantly, the logo panel should preferably at the side of the office.
Or if there is already a logo panel above the door, then, another one should be placed next to the door for the NE facing main door.
1.5 Frankly, there is not much choice if the main door faces the lift.
1.6 Often, if this is a Chinese business and do not have Malay clientelle, then, some business place plants at each side of the business. Or place a red banner above the main entrance area to invite better qi.

2. A bedroom has #9, #9, #5
but yearly star #8. What are
the interpretations & cures?

It is still safer to introduce metal at this sector. since fire #9x2 often fuel or inflame #5 misfortune/sickness star.
Fortunately the auspicious #8 has helped to lessen it.

3. Noticed, some double storey
terrace house have ?water
tank? on top of their roof?
Is that good?

This has more to do with safety of the structure rather the water tank.
This is because, often the water tank is enclosed. It is not like a swimming pool.
In commonsense approach to Feng Shui, this has more to do with the strength of the structure or measured in per kilo newton weight that the roof can support before it collapses.
If the roof was not built or calculated properly or the wrong mix of cement / steel beams are used imagine the devastating effects it has even in a low magniture earthquake. (This is especially true in earthquake prone cities.)
Quite sometime back, we hear of poor quality construction in Turkey. And personally, in earthquake prone cities; I don't want ever to stay in such an apartment. Where, such a water tank can come crushing downwards. Hiding under a table would not help, here.
Frankly, as mentioned above, many, many concepts or ideas in Feng Shui has it's origin with commonsense.
All of us should always try to take this approach, first. By doing so, we can then have a firm grounding on what is and what is not Feng Shui.
Lastly, I always mentioned that even if we were to buy a new home; what matters most is our affordability and how much liquidity it can bring.
In addition, we should not fall into the trap of being `entrapped' in a home where we had made an expensive purchase. But had committed to huge loans.
Many Singaporeans are now in a fixed. Some need liquidity e.g. because they lost their job etc... but if they do sell their current property; they could easily lose $100K to $200K or more. Worse, many are still paying for their bank loans!
No Feng Shui Master in the world can bring us out of this `blackhole'.
This is why, I often emphaise to everyone here, money is not everything.
Many of the Human/Man luck are FREE! What is more important is to have a healthy family relationship. So long as each of us still have our arms and legs, and willing to do honest work; we still have "each other" (family members) for support!
Cheers! Everyone try to change your outlook and bring joy to those around you! This SECRET is truly free!
Warmest Regards,
Cecil
