Thanks for the photos. These are some considerations: 1. Since the offending post is "smack" against the main entrance door; thus the best "solution" is to consider a potted plant with lots of leaves (not another barren tree trunk type of plant) against this post. Ideally the potted plant is plus or minus = around 3/4 height of the entire entrance door. 2. The weak alternative is hanging a 6 hollow rod wind chime. 3. The rest of the concern like railings.. no choice. Thus, in my opinion, therefore, if you are allowed to place a potted plant; then this can be the best solution.

Dear Ben, 1. The main purpose of the light is to `redress' the missing corner. 2. If your garden has an outline of the missing corner e.g. landscaping done so that when one has a top-view of your plot of land, it shows an outline or profile of the `missing corner'. If this has been done, then it is not a necessity to have a garden light point. If Para 2, is `available' i.e. if you have landscaping done - then it is not necessary. But if you want to place a lighting under this `condition' then, a low walkway light should be acceptable or the 1-2 feet tall type will do. 3. If there is no landscaping and you are using only a `street lamp' then, it is advisable to use a tall…

Dear Jason, 1. It depends on what you are investigating. 2. Often, a building is investigated especially if the company or business owns the entire building. And, here, the company wants to check it's external Feng Shui especially to see if a water feature or a water / cum mountain feature can be activated e.g. outside the building e.g. frontage, or back. 3. For example, if the building is facing a double #8 under Period 8, which is coming soon. The owner of the building may want to have a cuscading water fall flowing e.g. from left to right of the building to activate #8 mountain with #8 water position at this spot. 4. But, what about the interior of your office? 5. Here…

Hi, We just moved into a new home and based on my calculation it seems this is a good home with parent string combination. Unfortunately we have a corner that's either missing or protruding (attached floor plan). As we won't be able to do any renovation due to this is a townhouse we would like some advise or what we can do. Thank you so much, Shaun

Dear Anon, Personally, I do keep two plants outside the living room window. Without much care, they are always flowering. This is considered a good sign especially when the plants grow well. In a way, one can consider plants as a good indicator of a looking at a location's "health". It is not advisable for a plant to be placed inside a bedroom because it is growing and in this situation, creates yang Qi. It is acceptable to have plants grow in planters outside the bedroom window. This is ok because the plants are not actually located inside the bedroom itself. In Singapore, placing potted plants on window verge is not allowed if it can fall and hurt someone downstairs es…

Dear Magdalene, Can you confirm whether, the powder room has water position. If not, in my opinion, it is secondary or non-issue. Warmest Regards, Cecil

Sorry, I am not sure if I got you correctly. But, as I mentioned earlier, the test is to stand inside the home e.g. at the main door : looking out of it or in the home looking out of the window. If one can directly see it "aimed" or "slicing" the window, then this is considered as a poison arrow. Otherwise, even if can see the pole but it is at the side of the window (not slicing the window in anyway, this is actually not a real threat. But rather can be called an illusional view - thus if this is the case, no issue).

Dear Wayne, 1. Yes, some Feng Shui books warn of living close to high power transmission lines. Here, some of these books quote the magnetic field coming from such lines as `unsafe' for health. 2. So far, if I am not mistaken, there were studies conducted even by Universities to say that there are no adverse effects on human beings. 3. This could also explain why, some of us are still `allowed' by the authorities to live close to these power-lines. 4. Under Commonsense approach to Feng Shui, it is always safer to stay clear of power towers. Not because of any ill effects (magnetic force) but rather, in an unlikely senario of the tower falling down e.g. due to high winds o…

Dear Tammy, 1. Under the FS concept, "if one can no longer see the threat, it no longer becomes a threat." 2. In your situation: 2.1. The most effective method is to protect the bedroom windows e.g. use a curtain or blind. 2.2. The other method is to plant trees behind the house such that it will block the view of the power cables. (But this may not be feasible or it may take time). Warmest Regards, Cecil

Further to what I had mentioned; firstly we buy things that do not fit our culture. The next major consideration is that some people are already in financial distress. Given this situation; asking them to buy some products (which often does not guarantee) a "return" is not a wise choice. Sure, if we have money to spare, and for those who feel nice buying products (much like impulse buying) can do so. But for those who are already in "deep shit"; buying goods on credit i.e. many years back, I coined this " Credit Card Feng Shui "; is a really bad choice. Thus, many of us do not blink an eye, throwing away good food. But imagine, there is some one waiting outside, hoping t…

Dear J Seco, When looking at a sector, one must not only look at just one star # but all three: Mountain #; Water # and Base (Palace) # numbers. Usually the cures for #2 is to neutralise it with simple things like 6 coins (big metal) or hulu or both. Another category star #5 or a combination of #5 with #5; #5 with #9 etc...would need constant metal to destroy it. And or the introduction of wood (green plants) to crush it. Thus, the most common constant metal are the use of wind chimes and a "tick-tock" clock such as an old grandfather chime clock. Usually these two objects can be readily purchased outside of the domain of Feng Shui shops or emporiums. Salt cure or sal…

Dear Anon, I have personally seen clients who even if they are missing out in their resource element, make a success in their Wealth or even Power element. In many of these success stories, another major aid is their home. Perhaps, I like to clarify here that maybe (just maybe) that their `excellent' homes has added a second dimension or `had replaced' their missing resource element. Warmest Regards, Cecil

Dear Lindsey, To test whether the power pole is a threat, stand at your main door or the window. And look out of it. If the power pole is tangent to or seem to slice thru the main entrance door or a window, then this is a threat. Else if one can still see the power pole but it does not seem to slice thru the main door (directly) then there is no threat. I.e. the power pole must be seemed to be slicing thru the main door or window. If the power pole is diagonal then there is no threat at all. For the property line, if you have a fence or a bush, then this would be better. Warmest Regards, Cecil P.S. graphic illustration of " No threat zone "

Dear CF Yow, CF Yow wrote: We will be moving to our new condo next month. However upon checking our auspicious dates, the weekend dates in March do not seem favourable. Pls advise a 'practical' way to 'officially move-in' to our new condo on a weekday, without really having to move all our stuff. We intend to move the bulk of our stuff on a weekend. Simply select the better date to officially move-in, and then follow these move-in rituals:- URL: http://www.geomancy.net/temp/user/move-in.doc Once you do it, you can move your furniture later. Hope that helps. Warmest Regards Robert Lee GEOMANCY.NET - Center for Applied Feng Shui Research

Dear Master, I know this is quite old post and I'm not sure if it's still valid. But I'll just try my luck posting a quick question here. i've recently bought a bokken (japanese practising samurai sword made of hard plastic), which I'm keen to learn sword technique martial art. Does this consider bladed weapon as the edges are blunt except for the tip which a bit sharp. If so, what are the precautions to take note or fengshui figure to place in my room if I'm keeping it in my wooden wardrobe/ drawer ? regards, Chris.

Dear Messrs Lee, I have followed your forum closely not becauseI am practising fast food feng shui. I noticed that you gave very sound and practical reply to the users here, it have provided a channel for us. I believe many have turned to feng shui enhancement when they are facing problems they can't solved. Like them, I am one of them, having tons of problems and I have taken them in my stride. I have alway hesitate to have my problems viewed in an open forum, but lately the problem have been too overwhelming for me. For the past years, I feel that "Luck" have deserted me. Things are not alway right for me, I suffered financially, due to this it also affect human rela…

Pray bell from a Japanese Garden

Dear Colleen, There are different levels of "participation" in Feng Shui. It depends on the following: 1. Generally, we can depend on our `feelings' to see where we want to place the prayer bell or 2. Use more scientific methods of Feng Shui such as doing a Flying Star Chart. Here, for example, a report should be able to tell us if it is acceptable to place a prayer bell. The use of method under Para 1 or 2 depends on the individual and your level of FS participation. Warmest Regards, Cecil

Dear Anon, In my opinion, one should not consider predecessor luck in Feng Shui. In the earlier message, what I mentioned was that Chinese do pay emphasis on where their forefathers are buried. But it is not correct to say that inheritance or holding back a home which once brought us luck is `predecessor'. I have also reinforced the notion that Feng Shui influence cannot be by `remote control'. If one manages to keep the previous house that brings one luck, most likely, the current house that one is staying is equally luckly to `allow' the owner to keep the previous house. One has to stay at the house to `enjoy' the luck. Warmest Regards, Cecil
