The placement of the aquarium

[myfs_97150]

Respected Sir,
Thank you a lot for this informative forum through which I have gained knowledge of trying to balance the elements in sector through flying star fengshui.I was fearful of flying of stars to period 8 but going through your forum eased my worry.A query which is left unanswered is if one uses rectangular aquarium what direction should it face if a stove is also present in this sector in order to avoid conflict of fire & water.Further ,what cure is necessary in the centre area of the house.Please advice

Hi Master Cecil, It is nice to be able to have guest speaker. Happy to know that this time the Live Chat will be on Feng Shui. Thanks to the club for bring us this opportunity.

Anyway, here goes my questions. I recently bought a red arowana at one of the lfs and it is 6 inches close to 7 inches now. However 1 week after bringing it back home, my arowana keep jumping and in the process lost a few scales and even spilt the tail. I have an adult Pahang Gold and during its younger days do not display such a character.

Consulted a friend who advise me to place $8 inside the red packet and place it above the tank. Mine happen to be glass tank but surprisingly it stop jumping till this day. I know this is funny but I do hope that you will shed some lights on my concern. What will happen if I were to remove the red packet.

2.1 The core of Chinese sciences of the Universe: Feng Shui, the Chinese Astrology and various other Divinity methods revolves around the understanding of the importance of the Five Elements. These elements are Water, Wood, Fire, Earth and Metal and are considered the building blocks of life.

2.2 According to ancient Chinese, these  Five Elements are interactive, shape and stimulate our daily life.

2.3 Under the productive cycle of Feng Shui, Water nourish plants and trees: producing Wood, Wood makes Fire which burnt into ashes to form Earth, Earth is the source of Metal. Metal can be condensed to water or can be melted into liquid i.e. `Water'.

2.4 Feng Shui utilizes the Five elements concept, also.

2.5 For example, assuming a specific house is at the ground floor and from the living room window, one can see a lamp post slicing through the window. Under Feng Shui, this is considered as a threat for the owners of the house and need to be neutralized.

2.6 Since the lamp post is tall and thin; even if it is made of metal or wood, it is still considered as a `tree?which is considered as the WOOD element.

2.7 Please refer to the productive cycle of the Five Elements concept: https://www.geomancy.net/resources/theories/fs-5element.htm

 

EARTH -> METAL ->  WATER -> WOOD (THREAT) -> FIRE -> EARTH

2.8 To neutralize the  WOOD threat, a Geomancer may advise his/her client to utilize all FIVE elements:-

We can introduce the following elements:

2.9 But often the fire element may not be enough to create a full balance. Since red colour represents the fire element,  a simple solution like a red packet can help to increase the fire element to create a balance. 

 

Even Suntec City fountain has the following elements:-

2.10 This is a sketch of a typical Feng Shui fountain (Qi enhancer) incorporating all Five elements:-

• 1. EARTH element: This is represented by a rectangular fish tank and pebbles in the tank.

  2. METAL element: Goldfish or dragon fish

  3. WATER element: The actual water in the tank

  4. FIRE element: E.g. red coloured goldfish or fish tank lighting

  1. EARTH element: This is represented by water flowing down to the centre-point or to the earth.

  2. METAL element: The bronze ring is made of metal. And also circle represents the metal element.

  3. WATER element: The actual water flowing down from the ring.

  4. FIRE element: The laser light display.

   

  2.11 In the above illustration, Metal element is represented by a round ball. Water element is represented by real water flowing under the ball (rotating it).

  It is not too difficult to add the other three elements:

  • • Lights (represent Fire element)
    • Plants can be added e.g. a potted plant next to this fountain.
    • Earth element is represented by the material of the fountain e.g. granite.
