And if so, is there anyway tocounteract the negative elementslike changing the photo frames or placing it in other parts of the house? Please advise. Thank you so very much. Generally, anything that is broken or old will not really be good to look at. So in a way it does not seem like the best kind of photos select to place in the bedroom. Usually,photos should look nice and happy etc. Else, like what you mentioned, it does not seem auspicious to do so. Just like if you want to hang a picture of fish painting, you also want to select nice and prosperous looking one. You will not want to choose fishes that are under-fed or only bones left. Just not auspicious to do so. If you ask my advise, would be to select other better picturesto hang. For these photos you can kept in photo album for memories but should not hang out to display if possible. Hope that helps.

I also keep falling sick, and unable to sleep well, feeling very pressurised. Is this because I am not suitable for the job ? Is sports an EARTH industry? Public Relations is Fire element, while Sports industry is Earth element. Fire is water element wealth. However, as you are a weak water person you first need to be strong in order to control your wealth element. Thus, as a weak water you will not benefit from this fire career which is considered your unfavourable wealth unless you become strong enough by having lots of Metal and Water element in other areas of your life. In addition, the Sports is Earth industry which destroy or weaken your water element further, so not a very favourable industry for you. Anonymous wrote: I have been doing marketing, andPR jobs for the past 10 years. Is marketing more suitable for me or PR? Marketing / Public Relations are Fire element, as a weak water person you will not benefit from such a career. I would say this is not a very good career to be in. You would probably want to be in a career or industry as Metal or Water element to be more favourable.

Dear Reina, Reina Bernadette De Leon wrote: My house is in period 7. Should I also follow the flying star of 2005 to cure the afflictions and enhance the stars of the other sectors. My gua number is 9 and my death direction is northwest. What cure should I install to negate chue ming? Thanks you. The easiest way to apply flying star is always fix up the 20-year sector because this influence will last the longest as long as the house luck does not change. The yearly luck will come and go each year. So these changes are not absolutely lasting very long. However, a little caution to where the star 5 and 2 which are the two worst stars should be neutralized where possible. Usually, enough metal (white/gold) element will balance such problematic stars. So follow the yearly flying star only when your 20-year flying star is balanced. Eight house is about your suitability to a sector. Flying Star is the luck of the house. Even if a sector such as North-West which is a Death sector for you. It does not mean that you shouldn't fix up the sector based on the flying star. These are two different concept. It is hard for me to suggest any cure unless I know what is the influence of the sector that you are worried about. Every home is unique and every person is also unique. So unless you know what is wrong, one cannot simply just give you a general solution because it will not work. If you are worried about whether the flying star sector is bad or not, tell me what is the influence of that sector (ie Mountain Star /Base Star /Water Star and year star for that sector you are worried about). Hope that helps. Warmest Regards Robert Lee GEOMANCY.NET - Center for Applied Feng Shui Research

The most ideal facing direction is one where your eight house and Ba Zi drection both say suitable. ie strong water person, wood- East is good, and under eight house is East is Health, than East is the best direction for you. Once the house suits you, then you should check the master bedroom to ensure that it is suitable to your eight house. Or if you have a spouse, then ensure that it fits your spouse. Of course, if you want to look at the best house feng shui, you will also need to check on the flying star.

Dear Anon, Anonymous wrote: I read under Fun with Feng Shui Tour that it is unfavourable to have a bedroom above the kitchen. There is a very commonsense reason for this. The kitchen has the highest probability of fire to start compared to other parts of the house. So if you have a bedroom just about it. The chances of five spreading up first is so much higher. As such, this is in auspicious. I mean in the traditional feng shui, most will probably ask you to put like 6 coins or wind chime etc. But I would personally advise you to spend a little money and buy a smoke detector. This is because technology has caught up with times. A smoke detector can at least give you warning so that you can attempt to put out the fire before it grows to big or at least alert you to get out the of the house safely. So this is the most effective way to handle this kind of feng shui leak. Anonymous wrote: It also saysthat the bedroom door should not face the door of another room. Is there anything I can do to fix or "cure" this? Generally, this is because it is said that when two door face it other, there is a higher chance of conflicts from arising. Especially, between the two occupants. The best way to resolve this is either keep the door close when not in use. Or at least at one of the bedroom door, if possible to install have some kind of curtain to block of the entrance or view. This can help as well. But simply this is usually not a major issue for family members as mostly family members are more likely to work out the difference than compared to a neighbour. So don't really have to worry too much. Just keeping the door close will help in most cases. Hope that helps. Warmest Regards Robert Lee GEOMANCY.NET - Center for Applied Feng Shui Research

Dear Olivia, Olivia Kim wrote: I mention this because as a strong earth ram, you've stated on your website that the most favorable color for that person is white. However, on their website, it mentioned that white and greenis the LEAST favorable color butyellow,blue and grey are beneficial colors for this year. Olivia Kim wrote: Will be so kind to explain the discrepancy? Frankly, there are so many different concepts and theories for defining element. Some people can based on year of birth, some use chinese horoscope, some use i-ching etc. Even with the same concept the depth of analysis will also ultimately result in different analysis results. So it is best you check with the site that gives you that information for the answers. As for me, I can only tell you how our site analyse the information. There can be only two state that a person can be classified in:- ie. weak Earth or Strong Earth. weak Earth is defined by having too much of unfavourable ie Wood and water. Wood destroy Earth, while Water destroy Fire which helps Earth. Metal is double edged element so cannot be considered as it destroy Wood and also exhaust Earth so cancelling its effect. Strong Earth is defined by having too much favourable element ie Fire and Earth thus making Earth very strong. So if you understand this basic definition, you will know why our website define your favourable elementas a Strong earth as Metal (white/gold) or Wood (green/borwn). As a Strong Earth, water also becomes a favourable elementyour wealth. So in order to weaken your excess Strong Earth, you need togenerally have more Metal, Wood or Water. This is how mostfive element deduction are based on. On a more fine-tuning level, you want to check out thepercentage of the five element present atthe start of your chart. ie how much percentage of each element you have. This is because a Strong Earth can be strong because it has say 50%Earth, 10% Fire. Or it can also be strong because it has50%Fire and 10% Earth. Or it can beequal etc. Sothough generally a Strong Earth is strong because it has Earth and Fire, knowing the percentage can let you know which element you have too much and which have too little. As such you can determine which of the five element will be better to have more than the other. ie if favourable element 10% Metal, 40% Wood, 0% Water. Then out of the 3 favourable element, you want more Water, followed by Metal then followed by Wood. In reality, it is very difficult to keep track of exactly how much percentage of element you have at a time. As such, as long as you have generally more Metal, Wood, Water. Your luck will generally improve. So that is how we based our analysis from. I will not be able to comment on other analysis as they may have other considerations or priority or even different concepts used. I can only comment on our analysis to tell you how we get our analysis. However, you should always take an analysis from one source completely. Never mix and match analysis as you may not have the same foundation how the analysis was derived. I can only say that all the concepts from our website works properly together because they have the same fundamental concepts that allows us to related from one concept to another.

Dear Anon, Anonymous wrote: Can I know the compatibility of a weak water & weak metal person. Weak meal person actually makes weak water stronger. So weak water person benefits from this pairing. Weak meal person will be slightly weaken by the pairing as metal produces water and thus weakening Metal. In order to make the relationship better, you should have Metal element as the common binding element. ie Metal = White/Gold / Carer = Finance / Direction = Westetc. So Metal will be the common binding element that helps to improve or smoothen relationship. In any case, feng shui can only help that much, the rest is up to the two couples to work out the differences. Hope that helps.

Dear Lily, Lily Loh wrote: If my paid Bazi analysis forcasted that a particular day or a number of days in a row are very inauspicious ie. stated "Very Bad", can I go and change a hair style? People said trimming of hair or changing hair style can change one's luck, or I should'nt do anything significant, just go to work and home, that's it. Is changing of a hair style considered significant? One should always know that person's luck is always changing from day to day. What is important is your general 10-year and yearly luck. This will influence the type of luck for the day overall. ie.If the year is a good/favourable year for you, that means that the Very Bad days becomes only the least auspicious day within the entire year. ie. If the year is very bad/unfavourable year for you, that means that the Very Bad days becomes the most inauspicious day within the year. So how truly bad depends on the overall year or month that you are in. You can always use this kind of deduction when making use of your luck forecast. Coming back to your query. Changing your hair style and look will generally affect a person's luck. Why? Simply because if you get a make over which makes you look very good and confident, even if you for example go to work, people will notice you better. This is what we call Human Luck. Taking care of your look and how you present yourself is one way of changing your luck. So by all means go ahead. Get a good make over that make you look good.Nothing to worry about the good and bad day. This is not that of an important event that auspicious date and time needs to be checked. You only check on such dates when you are planning to do something important (ie wedding / move in / start of renovation etc). Hopethat helps.

Dear Anon, Anonymous wrote: Ihavejust received keys for my new flat and to my dismay, I realised my living room window actually can see a cross junction road. And my main door is facing my neighbour main door too. Few questions for you to ask yourself in order to determine if this isreally bad. 1. This cross junction that you mentioned, how close or far away is it from your block? ie. If it is the road next to the block, then it is close. Then it will have more impact. ie. If it is separated by another small carpark road, before the main road? If sothen it is at least a distance away and you have another small road or path that separate or blocks you from the cross junction. Then not so bad. 2. How high is your apartment? ie.Usually for lower floors probably in this case I would say 7 floors or lower, then probably it will have a higher impact especially on the 2nd/3rd/4th floor. ie. For higher floor, then I don't think it will be as great an issue. These two factors will influence how much the cross junction will impact your home. The nearer the cross junction and the lower your floor the impact will be greater. Else it will be less. Same for your neighbour door. How close it is from you? Closer, will also make it harder to fix. I mean if you were to employ like putting a bagua or mirror, your neighbour may also do the same and end up having more conflicts rather than a friendly relationship. One practical way is to install a gate with the bottom half that is cannot see through. This will block some of the bad influence of two doors facing each other. Anonymous wrote: Could you provide your expert advice on such situaion and how to prevent bad omen? For the cross junction, one way is to ensure that you have day curtain which will act as some protective first layer to shield you from the sha qi. In feng shui, when you cannot see the Sha Qi it does not become a problem. But if it is a distance or you are on a higher floor, then I don't think it will be too bad. Hope that helps.

Dear Affrei, Sorry to learn about your situation. I mean you will really need to identify where are the leaks available only then can you be able to know what is causing the issue and whether some of the leaks are correctable or not. Unfortunately, there are so many people constantly seeking out advise. I cannot promise you that I can attend to your case personally. As such what I can do for you if you are willing to do some work on your own and clarify the doubts as you face them. Usually, there are several concepts each used to check certain influence:- 1. Ba Zi - helps identify your luck period (maybe it could be very bad) or you have too many areas in your life such as career or favourable element lacking. 2. Flying Star - helps you identify the luck of the house, maybe the facing direction / bedroom / work room you are using is having inauspicious or even lawsuit stars. 3. Eight House (free report in member area) - Check yourhouse suitability and bedroom direction check if it is Death or Disaster which are two most frequent issues. 4. There might be other shape and form issues from layout plan or externally. It takes a series of these to be against you to have lots of ongoing problems. All depends on how major the leaks are. If you are interested, I can provide you with some of the paid ba zi and flying star analysis which you can use to check out what's might be wrong and thus correct them whereever possible. Once you minimise the various problems, luck will usually improve. How much of luck improvement depends a lot on what kind of leaks are affecting your home. If you have a layout plan, I can also check quickly to see if there are other shapes and form leaks that you might not have noticed. But you will have to give me sometime, as we are quite busy. As it is there are still a long list of forum messages and cases which we are trying to clear daily. Send me an e-mail at support@geomancy.net with your member account and this e-mail.

Dear Anon, Anonymous wrote: Hello, I am extremely interested in learning about Feng Shui and doing an online course but I am feeling unsure about it as I discover my husband and I need the exact opposites. He is Kan and I am Kun. We rent our house which we both love but is ideally suited to me which concerns me. I am worrying unneccessarily for him or will you be able to teach me remedies (without moving bedrooms or house for that fact) to create a desirable living situation for him. Thank you. Frankly, this is an extremely common situation. You should be applying the give and take approach in such situation. 1. Firstly, identify who is the breadwinner for the house. Where both earns the same, in terms of feng shui the husband is usually the breadwinner. 2. Breadwinner should have priority for the house to suit him first. ie any of the 4 good directions. If possible, the spouse suitability to the house should avoid death or disaster if possible (if notstill acceptable as long as the bedroom is suitable to her). 3. Since the breadwinner now has a luck from the house, then the breadwinner can take a less suitable master bedroom suitabilty. Give the spouse a better suitable bedroom so that the spouse can get luck from the bedroom. Same thing, if possible the breadwinner should avoid a bedroom falling under death of disaster. So this way breadwinner get luck from home, while the spouse get luck from the bedroom. This is the way that both person can enjoy the house equally. Hope that helps.

I heard of this sharp edges are very harmful like a knife. Sowhat can I doto solve this problem? Please help me. I really need your help! Thank you so much. Yes, any shape edges from building across are sha qi. Since it is from another building it not possible to have something blocking the path of the two buildings. One thing is to always ask, how far is that building. If it considered very very far away, then not going to be that bad. So the only practical thing you can to is to make sure you have day curtains in addition to normal curtains. Try to keep the day curtains closed so that it helps to block the sha qi from entering into the house directly. This will reduce some impact of this. If the sha qi is very serious, one way is to have a circular mirror to deflect the sha qi is another way. Another traditional method for deflecting sha qi is like the use of Qi Ling or Dragon which are often consdiered very strong defensive creature. Such creature are often used as to counter sha qi, where other solutions are not possible. Hope that helps. Warmest Regards Robert Lee GEOMANCY.NET - Center for Applied Feng Shui Research.

Dear Reina, Quote: ie period 7 (NW sector has 5-2-5 and yearly 5 will be very bad) ie period 8 (NW sector has 6-6-7 and yearly star 5 not too bad) I don't understand the NW 525 in 7 and 665 in 8. Can you please explain further. Frankly, this is lots of flying star related analysis. I was simply trying create an example to tell you that different period and different flying star numbers in the sector will make the yearly star have different overall influence. 5-2-5 are all three Strong Earth Illness/Misfortune star. With the yearly 5 again nother Strong Earth will make that sector extremely bad. 6-6-7 are Metal related stars. Metal helps to exhaust Earth, thus even if Star 5 (Earth star is present), it will be exhausted by the Metal thus not too bad overally. I was trying to highlight that one cannot just based on the fact that because yearly star 5 is present in that sector it means the entire sector is doomed. You have to related to the other stars to make an overall decision. Otherwise, you are only applying a general feng shui cure for everyone.

Dear Anon, Anonymous wrote: In hunting for an apartment, is high-rise or low-rise building better? Is there anything to do with qi flow? In general, higher floors are generally more popular because firstly it gives a good view (usually unblocked by other flats). Also, under flying star above 7th floor onwards, it is always said that your frontage (usually the living room/balcony) contains virtual water (open space). Thus, usually higher floor is more popular. As for whether which is better in terms of Feng Shui, you have to really check out the environment in relation to the unit to determine which is better. Doesn't mean that lower floor means not as good. Some low floor can be as good depending really on the surrounding. One cannot just make a sweeping statment that all high rise building is generally better. There will always be good and bad units on low or high rise building. It is the surrounding environment that will ultimately determine the overall feng shui of the home itself. Hope that helps.

My question, if my house was built in period 7,what flying star chart should I follow, period 7 or period 8? Right now I have made some cures in my home but I followed the flying star chart of 2005. Am I right? Please give me some advice on what to do? Thank you. In order to determine if your home is still a period 7 or period 8, you will need to confirm whether there are any major renovations done in 2004/2005. You see a house does not change to the new period automatically unless you make enough changes to the house structure especially to change the luck flow within the house itself. Therefore, your house by default will still be a period 7 house. Only when major renovations work are done in period 8, will it cause the house to fly over to the new period. If you plan to make major renovation this year, then you can consider to check period 7 and perior 8 house luck, see whether it is better or not to fly over to the new period. If luck is better, then should fly over to the new luck period, else keep the existing luck. As for the yearly flying star, this chart will be same for all houses. But how it interacts with the base sector consisting of the Mountain Star-Base Star-Water Star will affect the overall influence of the sector. This is because the same yearly star in period 7 and period 8 will have different overall influence. ie period 7 (NW sector has 5-2-5 and yearly 5 will be very bad) ie period 8 (NW sector has 6-6-7 and yearly star 5 not too bad) It is never advisable to simply make cure based on the year star without considering what base influence is affecting that sector. Hope that helps. Warmest Regards Robert Lee GEOMANCY.NET - Center for Applied Feng Shui Research

Dear Anon, Anonymous wrote: The picture file shown is similar to the flat that I had purchased. The walls of the study room and another bedroom have sloping walls. If I have built in cabinets to make the walls straight, does it help? Yes, sloping walls tend to create additional poison arrow, so not very good in feng shui perspective. In feng shui, as long as you can no longer see the threat, it no longer becomes an issue.So by building a cabinet to hide the slope will be one way to resolve this sha qi. The other way is if your ceiling is very high, a false ceiling is also another away to conceal such sloping walls or any beams. These are usually the most effective solution, as once you are not able to see the threat it no longer becomes an issues. As to which is more cost effective, you will probably have to check out the various quotes for the work necessary. Hope that helps.
