Dear Ber, Please read below:- Most likely, there is an inauspicious star number 4 somewhere in your bedroom or rooms which you are consist together. Or maybe you have some element which does not suit the both of you. However, without more details it is pretty difficult to access what's wrong. The only way I can suggest now is that check out the compatibility with the two of you, and see what is the suggested element that should bind the two of you. Try to have those element in places where you are always together. Normally, these should be ok, unless there are bad stars in that area which we are not aware of. Warmest Regards Robert Lee

Dear Kylie, Please read below:- Warmest Regards Robert Lee

Hi, Please read below:- Basically, in my opinion, it is more important to know why you want to wear certain objects. Is it to cure a certain element or for what? You see, Feng Shui is about harmony and not about specific objects which has been termed as Feng Shui wealth enhancers etc. There is actually no need to purchase such items if you know what you are doing. For example if you know you are a strong wood, then you know that what you need to do is to control your weak wood. Then you go about wearing red (for fire) to exhaust the strong wood. Or if you want to enhance your wealth then you wear earthly colours etc. These are the best ways you can do to make use of Feng Shui to better and enhance yourself. I can tell you from my own family experience in the past that we those so called three-legged frog etc does not really work. They are just items being made use as sales object. True Traditional Feng Shui is about harmonising yourself with your environment. Everything in the world can be broken down into the Five Element and Yin & Yang. If you can do that and relate the various elements together. Then you can create the necessary balance to improve yourself. Hope that helps. Warmest Regards Robert Lee

Hi, Please read below:- Apologise for the delay, both Cecil and myself were tied up with some local seminar which we were invited to. Actually, for such shapes and forms type of influence, there is very little you can do about it. It is best to avoid it, but if you cannot, all you need to do is to ensure that the interior of the house is at least made auspicious by curing other problems which is within your ability to cure. Although, Feng Shui has many theories, however, there are some cases which basically you cannot do much with your own personal ability to cure, so in such cases, it is best to cure those which you can. Remember, the way to good harmony, is getting rid of all possible problem, as you get rid of problems, you will already find that you will be much better off. Then when you make any enhancers you will benefit from it. Hope that helps. Warmest Regards Robert Lee

Dear Users, We have update the pillars of Destiny Server module. 1. The Ten Deities summary table has two deities which was not added from the heavenly stem Conception and Life pillars. A user had previously queried why the Ten Deities table in the v8.00 public beta is different from the older version. The reason is because this new version is far more accurate and it has now taken into account two additional pillars. These two pillars forms part of the house of pillars which are makes the reading more accurate. These two pillars are now analysed in the v8.00 pillars due to a improved analysis method. We are working on the new revision of the additional explanation and yearly module to be added to complement this report. So look out for more exciting releases:) Warmest Regards Robert Lee

Dear Users, We are extremely pleased to know that we have thousands of users using our online report daily! We have been busy setting up some personal computers in the past few days so that both Cecil and myself have better access to answering the tons of mails we received each day. I have modified the public beta by breaking down the report to 3 portions. 1. Main report. 2. Detailed report. 3. Ten Deities and Luck Pillars. As the previous released public beta is even more detailed and more analysis is involved, the final report is 450K in size. This would take a long time to generate all three parts in one report. Thus the report is now broken down into 3 portions, each catering to specific analysis portion. The result is a much faster generation of report. And allows for us to concentrate on specific analysis. We are pleased to receive many positive feedback about the new report. We are also working to improve the report with its existing layout:) Warmest Regards Robert Lee

Dear Users, We are pleased to inform you that after several days of programming and testing, the Pillars of Destiny v8.00 beta 8 is significantly ready to be opened for public beta. This means that all users who had purchased our Pillars of Destiny Standard or Premium will be able to enjoy viewing this new revision. The only difference is again that Standard will not have access to annual luck analysis or other bonus reports. This new revision has many exciting changes and additions. 1. You will have two additional houses (house of conception and house of life) which is analysed for you in addition to your 4 pillars (year, month, day & hour). This provides a greater and more accurate analysis of your chart. 2. The layout has been revised into a newer and more comprehensive knowledge about your chart. 3. Explanation are also clearer and more detailed. 4. In addition many new additions such as the full range of Combination and Clashes, Harm and Punishment are analysed. 5. Many new analysis such as Family Group, Stages of Life and more! 6. In addition, many new advantaged analysis technique was incorporated providing a more comprehensive and detailed analysis. More details can be obtain from the Beta Software conference. The Beta Software Revision will still carry on with several new analysis tested, but changes in that beta will not be made public until it is ready. Meanwhile enjoy the new report! Warmest Regards Robert Lee Note: Once the additional analysis are completed, the official release will replace all the existing version.

Dear Peter, Please read below:- ----- Original Message ----- From: Listmanager To: Sent: Wednesday, August 04, 1999 12:58 PM Subject: Wrong calculation I am assuming that you 2 Feb 1969 is your Western Date of Birth Right? This means that your Lunar Date of Birth is year 1968, month 12, day 16. So your calculation is:- 1 + 9 + 6+ 8 = 24 2 + 4 = 6 Male so 11 - 6 = 5 Unless you tell me your date of birth is 2 Feb 1969 Lunar Date of Brith then your calculation is:- 1 + 9 + 6 + 9 = 25 2 + 5 = 7 Male so 11 - 7 = 4 Eight House theory uses Lunar Calendar and not Western Calendar to deduce the Kua. Warmest Regards Robert Lee

Hi, Actually, activating the mountain star or water star does not bring about say mountain star earth or water star water. The purpose is that when there is an auspicious star, by activating it, you active the auspicious influence it brings about. What you should be considered is to ensure that the bad stars are controlled, then activating any mountain star is good. Warmest Regards Robert Lee

Hi, Please read below. There is no harm in activating it, because it is an auspicious star which brings you good luck. The only thing you need to take note is that they must fulfill the requirements. Warmest Regards Robert Lee

Dear Nansi, Apologise for the late reply, was browsing through the message and found this still unanswered. Please read below:- Try to divide your Eight House using the pie lines and make sure you do not stay directly in the death line. Rather then the 9 square format. It is a little more accurate with the pie line division. Just avoid staying directly under the disaster line. Another suggestion is to strengthen yourself with your favourable elements, this will also help to counteract or reduce the influence. You see, even if you are a strong Earth, but without fire, you do not have a mother or a resource these are what essentially created you. So you still need "a little" rather then none at all. But since you are a strong Earth, I recommend a little will do just enough to bring you into balance. Warmest Regards Robert Lee

Dear Joe, Please read below:- Yes, it will help you strengthen your weak Fire. Especially if you have some wealth deities in your chart, you can then take advantage of the wealth deities when you are a stronger Fire. Warmest Regards Robert Lee

Dear Users, A very good suggestion was made regarding adding a new conference:- Like to share your Experiences? So we have added this conference for users to exchange their experiences about how Feng Shui has helped, changed their life or any personal experience about Feng Shui with you like to share. Hope you enjoy it! Warmest Regards Robert Lee

Hi, Please read below:- Instead, you should make use of the directional elements and the seasonal directions found in the pillars for each 10-year luck pillars or annual luck pillars. They will be a little more related and more accurate. But in any case, direction of flight is just a one area you should look at, only thing is take note when you heading a certain direction for a major event or task otherwise, not really that important. Most important that you are in balance with your elements. That should bring you out of harms way. Warmest Regards Robert Lee

Dear Michele, You may have to check out if there are any master who had listed themselves in our Feng Shui Directory at http://www.geomancy.net/links/index.htm. Otherwise, you may have to ask around or search the web with yahoo or some other search engines. Apologise, can't help you on this matter. Warmest Regards Robert Lee

Dear Jason, Please read below:- Yes, it does help. It is in fact the best alternative to improving your office if you are unable to relocate your sitting position. Fire would be more recommended, any pointed object or red colour will do just fine. Warmest Regards Robert Lee

Dear Fraser, Please read below:- Actually, I personally find these rather unimportant. More importantly the colour is suitable for you, that is good enough for clothings. As for the lines etc, it is really up to your liking. Generally you have to use your own personal judgement. Items can sometimes be made of different elements such as plants are both wood and earth. So similarly colour can also have to different elements such as yellow-red, which is earth and fire. Then you have to see which is more, if more red then most likely fire. Next important criteria is the shape takes precedence over colour. Warmest Regards Robert Lee

Dear Fraser, Please read below:- Yes, in the natural destruction cycle, water destroys fire. Well, you are relating this directly with the Kua element direction of the bagua. Such as South being Fire. The proper thing you should look out is an overly strong influence of a certain element. A little of each element in every portion is ok. You see, you need to have a little of each elements even destructive elements in your life. Only when you have a balance of everything can you draw the strengths from them for whatever you do. All these are based on the Five Elements cycles. Production Cycle = Metal, Water, Wood, Fire, Earth. Destruction Cycle = Metal, Wood, Earth, Water, Fire. For any sha qi, so long as you cover it, it is fine. You can use nearly anything of your imagination to cure the sharp edges. Warmest Regards Robert Lee

Dear Fraser, Actually, you can do a free pillars of destiny report at http://www.geomancy-online.com to determine your birth element. Anyway, your birth element is earth. If you are a weak earth, the fire is good for you. Otherwise, metal is good for you. Actually, I think you do not really have to be so concerned about the bathroom. Areas which you should be more concerned with is with things that you spend more time with. Example your own bedroom and items you wear or carry. These are more important to suit yourself then the colour of your bathroom. Warmest Regards Robert Lee

Hi, Please read below:- Well, glad you have brought this matter up. You see the easiest book to write is about shapes and forms and Eight house which are very static in nature allowing it easy for authors to write them. However, what you are forgetting also is that in the Traditional Feng Shui do you know that these items are consider part of Feng Shui Evaluation tools:- - Five Elements, Yin & Yang - Face Reading - Palm Reading - Eight House - Bagua Trigrams - Zi Wei Dou Shu (Chinese Astrology) - Pillars of Destiny - Pillars of Name - Feng Shui (Shapes and Forms) - Flying Star - I-Ching - Yin Feng Shui - & lots more Normally an "authentic Feng Shui master" would have a good understanding of all these theories (although I can understand that not every can specialise in every area as there are a lot to learn an understand!) But they must be at least be fluent in to know which are important for a home audit. But I am said to say that there many self-claimed "Feng Shui Master" these days don't know much about these. Of which, majority of the books are on Shapes and Forms because they are easiest to teach. But in reality, due to the misconceptions by many of these books, they have completely ignore many important areas of Feng Shui:- - Shapes and Forms - Flying Star - Eight House - Pillars of Destiny As you can tell, we have been adding resources about these topics to the site for users to learn and understand. However, it is not easy to come up with easy to understand theories. Thus, in order to simplify matters, we have came up with the computerised tools to assist everyone to do proper feng shui. And these tools allows a user to access nearly all areas of Feng Shui which is lacking in many books. Due to our experience and contacts with many users, we realised that there are consultants out there who actually only do partial Feng Shui Audit for a person. Example 1 ========= We have seen someone who do a Flying Star for the home, and had told them that their house is good and they should activate this and that. So they did, guess what? They ended up with problems. Why? We found that the person was too strong in an element such as strong wood, and cures and enhancements such as fountains added actually caused them more problem then helping them. Example 2 ========= We have users who told us that they were told to put this items (mirrors, crystal, fountain, etc) in places where they shouldn't. This practitioner only uses their intuition or so call qi. Again problems struck. Why? After doing a Flying Star audit for them, we found that the mirrors and etc was placed in inauspicious areas. Example 3 ========= We have users who told us that a consultant help them evaluate their home using only Eight House. After putting enhancements suggested, problems arose. Why? We found the problem from pictures which they sent us about their home and found several sha qi not cured, which caused problems. Example 4 ========= And lots more, if you do search on this forum, I think can see many more. So I will not elaborate on it any further. --------------------------------------------- So doing a proper Feng Shui is not that easy. Sometimes problems are caused by Shapes and Forms, some are caused by incompatibility with elements and home, some are by Xuan Kong influence, and some are by Eight House, etc. Our advice is that you have to be careful when you apply feng shui, and normally before we can really advice you, we need to have information from the correct reports or relevant details from users. Many question asked sometimes are too general that there is no way to provide an all-for-one solution. This type of Feng Shui is what we call "Fast Food Feng Shui". It is not desired as many problems have arise from it. And let me tell you it is more difficult to cure problems which occurs from wrongly activating the star or offending the grand duke etc. Often these can be more damaging than the original problems. Thus, even harder to enhance or cure as there are now added influences. So please understand that, when we try to provide answers or advices, we do so with care and most of the time we need more specific info from the users in order to provide them the answers. Also, as many users can tell, we are getting lots of questions from the forum and not to mention our own personal mails, so you may have to give us some time to provide answers to your question, especially those with very complex problems. Remember that there is no ONE-CURE for all problems. Each person is unique and each problems is also unique. We are providing more information about different theories, but these will take time. "Rome isn't built in one day." Warmest Regards Robert Lee

Hi, It is more important when they appear as mountain and water star. However, under the advanced Xuan Kong, it is more equally important that the analysis takes into account the inter-relationship between the two stars, 20-year, yearly and monthly stars. Warmest Regards Robert Lee

Dear Eve, Please read below:- This is Yes, in the past, many Feng Shui Masters use elements found in the name to help suppliment the lack of an element in the birth chart. This is considered the immediate cure for a new born baby to change his or her luck. As you know a person's name is most often used so it does have some impact on the person. Generally, from a name, it does provides certain characteristics and is pretty related to Feng Shui's Pillars of Destiny. Just like when my nephew was born end last year, I choose a name using this art to compliment his existing birth elements (from the Pillars of Destiny), especially areas which he lacks. And true enough, he is turning out to be very strong and active, just as his name has predicted. Naming or Pillars of Name ========================= For those users who are not aware, Pillars of Name is the ancient art of analysing a person's destiny using his or her name. This applies strongly to Chinese names only. There are some common English names being represented. I actually wanted to put up a module for it, but as it requires users to have Chinese Character support for it, I have decided to put this development on hold. How it works? ============= Simply every chinese character has a specific stroke which is divided into the Five Element and Yin & Yang, with the various choice of characters, a person's destiny can be revealed.

Dear Rose, Thank you for your comments. Yes, I had that in mind, but because the main program is already too complex especially with the older modules it was difficult to add clear explanation at the same time provide technical information. Thus, thus this major revision is done to provide two sets of report, one is the full technical analysis, and the other is the explanation only. In this way, I can take advantage of the specific targets templates and provide more in-depth explanation without making the report too long or too complex to generate. In addition, it was a long time since the codings were looked at due to constant addition, so the new revision gives me a chance to re-look and enhance the performance and add new techniques for "detailed, multiple and cross-analysis". This would mean that you will see the related information being analysed as a whole, rather then individual components analysis. Thus providing you with one result and suggestion for the analysis. A sample of this explanation is found in the Pillars of Destiny Explanation module which solely takes care about explaning the details rather than the complex details. This portion of the report is more the explanation on what to do and how to do it. That module is being enhanced together with the main report. But before that, I need to actually test the revised modules to ensure that all the analysis is done properly just as the existing v7.10. Once I have verified this, I can proceed to add in more enhancements. Thus, I have put up the v7.20 beta for testing. The report should generate exactly the same as the original except that it is faster and it uses many new techniques and contains 120 years of luck pillar:) Warmest Regards Robert Lee ----- Original Message ----- From: Listmanager To: Sent: Tuesday, July 27, 1999 1:13 PM Subject: New!
