Staff Cecil Lee Posted August 14, 1999 Staff Share Posted August 14, 1999 Dear Sheila,I can understand your concern. Overall, the most reasonable thing you could do is to find out which area you spent most of your time at.For example, one area is the beam above your bed and the beam above e.g. your favourite seat e.g. facing the TV.It is not possible to `cover' all areas but what you can do here is to do selective `cures' based on the location where you spent most time at. Look up and if there is a beam, you may need to neutralise it.The alternative to hanging bamboo flutes is to use Six coins and hang it on the selective beam. Alternatively, you can use anything that is made of metal. But try to have 6 pieces at each location. But do not try to stick it as it may fall off and hurt someone. If you have the Chinese coins, you can string them at the center square hole and tie them together with red string. Hang it or tie it around the beam to make sure that it does not fall off.Otherwise, paste circular six silver foils on each of the `specific' beam. The six silver foils is symbolic of Six metal element.What is the significance of six metal coins? The six metal coins represent Six Metal and is used to destroy wood i.e. the wooden beam.Hope that helps.Warmest Regards,Cecil Quote On 8/13/99 1:18:21 PM, Anonymous wrote:hi, my entire home has woodceilings with exposed woodbeams. most of the ceiling isslanted. what are someremedies for this? i cannotafford to transform theceiling into a regular ceiling- will bamboo flutes help?what suggestions do you have?sheila Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
sheila Posted August 15, 1999 Share Posted August 15, 1999 Dear Cecil,Thank you so very much for your reply to my question about the beams. If I choose to use the bamboo flute remedy, should the flutes be attached lenghtwise or across the beams? (Does it matter?) And should I use a red cord on the flutes? How many flutes per beam? I have heard two.I so appreciate your time in responding to my concerns. Thank you, Sheila Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
