  1. Dear Anon,


    Based on your description (below), it does not sound serious. This is because it does not seem that the old tree "slices" into the main door nor the front gate.


    So long as it does not "slice" thru a window, this is perfectly acceptable given also that the tree is across the street.


    Warmest Regards,
    Cecil

    Hello!

    There is a big old tree in

    front of my house (my house

    faces aplayground/park).

    It's planted at the pavement

    across the street.

    The treefacesmy

    house (semi-D) right in the

    middle (ie it'snot

    directly in frontof the

    gate, nor is it directly in

    front of the front door as the

    gate is to the left while the

    front door is to the right).

    It actually faces the middle

    gate post. Should I put

    something at the gate post or

    at the balcony of the house to

    ward off any bad feng shui?

    Thank you!

  2. Dear Anon,


    1. In my most recent posting, I elaborated on the Holy Trinity of Luck (Geomancy Luck).


    2. The single most abused thing in Geomancy today has to do with a marketing ploy for us to purchase "stuffs".


    3. If we analyse carefully, this area or the sale of products comes under Human or man luck.


    4. The reason why products are touted today is that Geomancers will try to squeeze out as much as they can out of our (hard earned) money to "sell" or "promote" products.


    5.Thus, many of us who had visitedFeng Shui sites before will come to expect that site has a products page with all sorts of products for sale.


    6. Actually, such products costs very little to produce. But sold at a very high mark-up. As a result, the FS consultant not only get his fees but also make some of us forkout a few thousanddollars more.


    7. Is'nt it better to savesuch money either forthe rainy day or for our children's education.


    8. If we look at most rich people, they do not haveall these "crazy" things stackedup in their home, facing the main door, looking out of the windows etc...


    Therefore, think twice before, being conned into buying lots of stuffs!


    Warmest Regards,
    Cecil

  3. Dear Anon,


    Actually, when we consider luck under metaphysics (Geomancy), we should look at it from a holistic approach involving three types of luck:-


    Previously, I have already mentioned about three kinds of luck:-


    1. Heaven Luck (known as Luck that was given to us when we are born)


    If we can see our Ba Zi chart, it comes under the category known as Pian Cai or "lottery or windfall" luck.


    Some of us are quite lucky while others do not have this type of luck at all. Worse, some of us have this luck only when we are at death bed e.g. 99 or 100 years old!


    2. Earth Luck (or commonly known as Feng Shui)


    While some of us many not have Pian cai or lottery luck, some of us, get our influence from our earth luck.


    For example, good Shapes and Forms Feng Shui is one factor. Another is the application of Flying Star Feng Shui.


    Under Flying star Feng Shui, if we are able to properly tap our flying star luck e.g.


    #8 = present prosperity


    (Under #8, commonly the Mountain star #8 has to do with relationship and lottery luck).


    (Under water star #8, it is suppose to bring generally good wealth luck)


    #9 = future prosperity and #1 = future future prosperity.


    Of-course, it also boils down to the three words: "location, location and location".


    3. Human Luck or Man Luck

    His family

    this due to the house luck

    fengshui. My in-laws

    refuse to let us do anything

    fengshui in the house. I

    wonder if we can do it in our

    main bedroom?

    Often, for many newly married couples, we aspire to own our own home, both for privacy as well (especially the daughter-in-law) does not need to treat the parents-in-law home with some "discomfort".


    Under this holy trinity of Geomancy: Heaven, Earth and Human Luck, we can see that sometimes, perhaps a home may not have very good Feng Shui, or we may not necessarily have good Heaven luck, but if we do have good Human (Man) Luck, often, this can bring up our total LUCK.

    I would like to enquire for my

    I wanted to know is it the

    Dear Master Cecil

    First of all, thank you so

    much for your advice.

    Eventhough, I have read books

    (feng shui) and still I find

    I'm lack of experience in feng

    shui. Taking feng shui course

    for past time and to gain some

    knowledge but then as I read

    the forum of yours and ended

    up spend most of my time

    reading feng shui books and

    get me confused example by

    some of the author....

    Q1.Properties area...should

    not display any electrical

    appliances like Tv's and

    stereos will causes a magnetic

    inbalance in the position and

    thewealth qi will not be

    stable wherelse an articles I

    read it said good to place

    electrical appliances as to

    absorb wealth qi.

    In my opinion, often we either literally have no choice because of the interior layout of the home but to position our TV sets at a specific location in the living room.


    Actually in my opinion, the greatest concern would be the centrepoint of the home. Where it is best not to disturb this area with things like a stove etc...




    Q2.We have change

    ourfurnituredispla

    y position yet our son (9

    years old), his behaviour seem

    does not changeexample

    whenever we have our dinner at

    the dinning table he is either

    too active or argue

    unneccessary or he easily feel

    irritated. Is this the cause

    ofhis bedroom or house

    furniture

    arrangement?

    Yes, Earth luck or Feng Shui can affect a person. Is his bedroom affected e.g. directly by the morning or afternoon sun etc...


    On the Human luck side, it could also be "hyperactivity" in a child or other things like feeling of "loneliness" or need for attention.

  5. Dear Josephine,


    If the home is facing 75 degrees then under Flying Star Feng Shui, it is considered as a East 1 chart.


    Currently, this home is considered as a Period 7 home, E1.


    If the home is maintained (no major renovations done), then this home can take advantage of #8 i..e. a water position at NE (water star #8) and SE (which has an auspicious mountain star #8 at this sector) to boost the wealth of the home.


    Other then this, one may consider "flying the home to Period 8, depending on the interior layout and star chart numbers of Period 8 to see if it is better than the current Period 7 chart.


    From the Shapes and forms point of view, the home is relatively in a "grid" and looks like all homes in this area is "flat". And thus on average, is acceptable - Shapes and Forms.


    Warmest Regards,
    Cecil

  6. Dear Linda,


    Actually, you can use the many free calculators located at http://www.geomancy-online.com to generate the correct charts.


    As to the Chinese zodiac signs, because usually January or February or even as late as March, this is where the new year of the lunar calendar stars.


    For exampel in 1997:-


    19 Feb 1996 to 6 Feb 1997 = fire rat and


    those born


    7 Feb 1997 to 27 Jan 1998 = fire ox


    Reference: http://www.lovesigns.net/astrology/ayear/a90-2010.htm


    This can change the Ba zi element and strength for anyone born between 1 January 1997 to 6 February 1997 if they had wrongly being considered as a fire ox instead of a fire rat.


    Therefore, why not use the free calculator and solve all your problems.

    Cecil

  7. Dear Anon,


    Usually for each sharp pointed design aimed at your flat, there is not much choice but to counter it.


    Thus, if there is one sharp pointed edge pointed at a specific window, one mirror can be used there. But if there is another sharp pointed object, another one should be used at another window. There is really not much choice, here.

  8. Dear Hong,


    Since you have accepted to keep the mask and violin bow, it is best to e.g. wrap them up (if not done so already) in newspaper and keep it in a store room - not display it.


    It is good that you have rejected the purse. Do check when their renovations are over and more importantly, when are they collecting it back.


    Avoid displaying these two items in your home or visible in the living room.


    Usually, if one has a Chinese Loupan, any objects that harbour any "illl effects" can make the Loupan compass needle sway in different directions.

  9. Dear Anon,


    A relationship needs two hands to clap. However, since both of you still love each other, it is best to find out what is wrong. (But not sure how to, it is best to get professional help or assistance in this area.

  10. Dear William,


    Frankly, there is no harm in hanging a painting of guan yin facing the main door.


    Usually, it is hang in the living room area.


    Although the painting of guan yin does not have it's eyes "dotted", it is still best to avoid:-


    1. letting the painting face the dining table


    2. have it's back to a toilet wall or share a toilet wall


    3. avoid facing into any of the bedrooms.

  11. Dear Ann,


    I strongly believe that there are more sectors that need balancing also.


    However, for a #3, #9 and #7 combination, it is not too good an idea to use water here:-


    1. #3 is a bad wood element.


    And water helps to further fuel bad wood!


    2. #9 is under Period 8, the "Future prosperity star" and if it is also the ws#9, then avoid adding water! This is because 9 = fire element. And adding water would drown your "future prosperity".


    3. #7. Actually, #7 is a weak metal. And can easily be exhausted when it takes care of #3 bad wood. (Here, metal destroys wood or exhausts it.) In fact, #9 is also used to control #7.


    Thus, a water position is not an ideal thing to use, here.


    Warmest Regards,
    Cecil

  12. Dear Emily,


    Only if #8 is a Water star, can we best activate it.


    However, in your question, since #8 = base star, it will have to take on the characteristics of it's personal element i.e. this is suppose to be an auspicious earth element. And on it's own, using water is not a good idea. Since water is like having a "hole to drawn the mountain".


    Not the kind of idea to do so.


    In fact, under a Flying star chart, if there is e.g. a base #8 while one of the other stars is a #5, because of Period 8, the #8 is suppose to reign supreme or take precedence over only one #5 in the chart. But if there are two or more #5 with #8 in a sector, than, this may over power #8.


    For example, in a sector, there are:-


    MS#5WS #6


    Base #8


    In such a chart, since there is only one #5 vs a good base #8, placing water at this sector may accidently drown the auspicious #8.

    Cecil

  13. Dear Fenger,


    Actually, in my opinion, it has to do more with the immediate family.


    Thus, in your case, since it is your hb's father's uncle, he should not be considered as the immediate family member.


    Thus, in my opinion, since the uncle is not an immediate family member, then holding a wedding 100 days later is actually OK. But if it is one's immediate family member than the wedding should be held one year later.

  15. Dear Rose,


    1. Firstly, although white is associated with the metal element, generally, it is a very safe colour to paint, since it is also a neutral colour for the home. (Even though both of you are considered as a strong water person - it is ok).


    2. Traditionally, therefore, white is a neutral and pleasant color.


    3. In general, under period 8, pastel shades of earth colors like beige is usually a better option since it is the "color" of Period 8.


    4. So, in general both colors are acceptable.


    5. In order to fly to period 8, one may have to remove a portion of the roof or change some of the roof-tiles of the home. In an apartment, symbolically one change to period 8, by repainting the entire ceiling of the home at one go. Plus, in addition, one should have "yang" activity such as a celebration to help to fly into the new period.


    6. Changing the kitchen cabinet top alone cannot fly to period 8, since this is not considered as a major renovation. But a combination of what I mentioned in the earlier paragraph - Paragraph 5 above) can change the home to period 8.

    Cecil

    the questions and answers from

    this forum.

    My period 7 house has a SW2

    facing (218 deg from standing

    outside the front door).

    The front door itself is in

    the South sector (measured

    from the center of the house).

    This year, we needto

    repaint the whole house

    (inside only) because it

    desperately needs it.

    The present color is

    beige. Should we keep

    the same color?

    Myhusband wants the

    white color, but we are both

    strong water and from my

    researching, white is the

    color of metal which is not

    good for both of us. Am

    I correct here?

    Next, we need to replace the

    kitchen countertop

    sincethe formica has a

    big burnin it. A

    few windows in the house need

    tobe fixed also.

    Will allthese

    renovations (new paint, new

    countertop, window fixing)

    change the house to period

    8?(PS:

    should we change our house to

    period8)

    Thank you very much in advance

    for your advice.

    Rose





  16. Dear Danny,


    Have u taken into consideration both partners (husband and wife) if you have two parties in the masterbedroom.


    Without any major renovation, it is best to look at the bedroom - with first priority on the Shapes and Forms Feng Shui.


    As the owner of the home, it is still best to occupy the master bedroom instead of using the study as the master bedroom - (first priority, here).


    Under the Eight House Theory, there is not much one can do, since it is a fixed idea or concept. Actually, the "bad influence" or rather it can belooked at by applying Flying Star Feng Shui.


    Warmest Regards,
    Cecil

    Dear Master Cecil

    According to my bagua, my

    sleeping position should be

    NE, NW, W or SW. NE, NW,

    and W is not possible because

    of the wardrobe in the master

    bedroom, therefore only

    SW. However, this

    position has the window as the

    back and it is also pointing

    at the master bedroom and

    toilet door although not

    directly. The doors are

    at 2 corners while the bed is

    placed in the middle. I

    understand this is also not a

    good position. What

    should I do to minimize the

    'bad' influence or avoid

    sleeping in my 'bad' position?

    My study room allows a NW

    orientation. Can I

    declare the study room as my

    'master' bedroom and sleep

    there?

    Hope you can help me.

    Thank you

    Danny





  17. Dear Sandy,


    Yes, it makes practical sense for the 4-poster bed to be covered with fabric or lace. - OK, no issue. As it makes it easy to "maintain" i.e. wash and re-use again.

  18. In Singapore, it is very common to find many shops selling "ancient-Chinese coins".


    But do take note that these are often imitation coins. And in-fact, imitation coins are good enough to be used.


    This is because a real geniune ancient Chinese coin can costs as much as S$25 or USD$13 each.


    In Singapore, I believe, the last time I was around this area; one can get the coins for as little as 50 cents to S$1 at the Bencoolen Building:-


    http://www.streetdirectory.com.sg/map.jsp?masterID=29016&postal=187951&building_name=&road_name=WATERLOO%20STREET&house_blk_no=42&heading=&&x=30231.36&y=31582.97&level=7&iconlist=star,30231.36,31582.97;&clickMap=0&clickX=30242.19&clickY=31592.72


    There are several shops in this building and many others around the various shopping complexes within this vicinity.

  19. Dear Anon,


    To give another "crude" way of associating with language, for example, some people use language in the "wrong way".


    For example, in Singapore, some of us learn dialect or use dialects to 'scold" people or use "foul language" widely.


    Here, the act of verbal abuse or like a politician, using much of the language to stir up people, can be considered as the "fire element".


    Anyone therefore, scolds someone, use 4-letter words can be considered as the act of using the "fire element".


    This is just an example.


    Warmest Regards,
    Cecil

    Dear Anon,

    Frankly, in my opinion, there

    are no right or wrong answers,

    here.

    For example, the act of

    studying has to do with

    "growth" or building a

    knowledge base. Much

    likea tree getting

    nourishment from the ground

    and growing bigger and taller.

    A language is based on

    individual cultures and often

    is fluid i.e. we talk,

    communicate - two ways. Much

    like cars on both sides of the

    highway. Thus, we can say

    generally that the art of

    communication both hearing

    (listening) and feedback

    perhaps could belong to the

    water element. Much like the

    French language which is fluid

    ....

    For philosophy, if it is the

    art of learning it then again

    it could be the wood element.

    While, I believe, it could

    also have the earth element or

    much of it is "down-to-earth"

    type of reasoning.

    I believe philosophy is in

    harmony with your earth

    element. While language or the

    art of studying language

    belongs to the wood element.

    Under the Five elements

    concept, wood destroys earth

    (much like the roots of a tree

    crushing into the earth) to

    produce wealth. Here, under

    the Five elements concept, for

    Earth, it's power of authority

    comes from wood. More rightly

    so, since "language is power"

    or learning more languages

    give us the power to

    understand other cultures or

    also to give us a competitive

    advantage especially if we do

    work in a firm from that

    culture.

  21. Dear Anon,


    In reality, frankly I believe, these are fixtures and very difficult to remove nor keep away from.


    However, currently, the major concern is that of sewerage pipes, than water pipes. But lets hope, this is non-issue.

  22. Dear Sophia,


    1. 6 (SIX) represents "big metal" and this is why, it is commonly used as a "cure" to neutralise e.g. #2 (sickness) or #3 or #4 (bad wood - career, lawsuits, scandals, education, romance type of issues)


    2. Since we are now under the influence of Period 8, there is now a surge of anything to do with the number 8. Previously, the phonetic sound of "8" is particulary very auspicious especially for the Cantonese dialect group.


    3. But now, many would like to hear that 8 is a good or SUPPOSE to be a very auspicious number under Period 8.


    4. However, if we stick purely to the academic line of the Flying Star School of Feng Shui:-


    6 = metal element


    8 = earth element


    4.1 Under the Flying Star Feng Shui, it is good that 6 represents metal as well as 6 also represents big metal. And since coins are used, it is simply = big metal.


    4.2 Under the productive sequence of Flying Star Feng Shui, 8 = earth element. And perhaps a string of 8 coins would mean 8 earth produces or increase metal or gold.


    4.3 For example, under the productive sequence of the Five Elements concept, earth produces metal.


    4.4 Thus SYMBOLICALLY, it is acceptable to have a string of 8 coins given the above meaning.


    4.5 In Feng Shui also, there are calls by some FS practitioner for certain use of:-


    a 7 coin "cure" this is symbolic of or equal to = weak metal cure.


    5. Alternatively, we often hear a string of 3 coins. Here, three or number 3 represents wood. And since the coins are made of metal e..g copper or bronze, metal destroys wood to create wealth.


    If one wants to understand further, please find out each of the numbers and their association e.g. 1 = water element ; 2 = earth element etc.. And also understand the Five elements concept; I am sure, you will be in the right path to understand all the various significance of it.

    Cecil

  25. Dear Amy,


    No, removing the trees (external) does not change the Flying star qi.


    However, this year, the Grand Duke of Jupiter is at compass degree SSW. And removing the tree(s) at SW may not be a responsible thing to do. Given that one should not distrub the Grand Duke at his present location.
