What comes between RED and PINK? Dunno?

This is IT! Touted as the ULTIMATE METAL element cure! Would you believe that it is 100 times better than a 6 ROD wind chime or 6 metal coins. It is 1,000 times better than a Pendulum clock! Shhh....MAKE SURE YOU TELL NO ONE ELSE! PROMISE? CROSS YOUR HEART?....

YES / NO? Read on.......

Once, Feng Shui was banned during the communist era, today, it is beginning to return to it's roots... mainland China!

Lion door guardians at work! Do we still need SECURITY GUARDS or ALARM SYSTEMS? YES/NO/NOT SURE? Who cares................!!!

Is there a plague? Or am I seeing double?

Fix the leak and WIN!

This is an untold story about crystals. Unlike GOLD, there are what is known as FOOL's GOLD... Actually, I had written sometime back about the classification of crystals ... that they were never used in authentic Feng Shui until some clever souls decided to sell them .. making fools of everyone.. thinking that they are FS goodies....

The key ingredient to the successful application of Feng Shui is? Guess......:- F_X THE LE_K! F_RST, _TUPID! Scroll down for the answer! OR check out this caricature! (fix the leak! First, stupid!)

Thank GOD, " Fast Food Feng Shui " saved my life.... remarked a porky PIG on the run! Phew!

The Key success factor in Shapes and Form Feng Shui has to do with this symbol.....make a guess what it is.... or check it out now!

Dear Users, 1 June to 4 June 2002 ===================== We apologise if you had difficulty accessing Geomancy.net or tried to e-mail us between 1 June to 4 June 2002. We had a server OS problem during this period and had to re-install the OS and restore all our backup DATA by 4 June 2002. Given the choice, we would not have used this `buggy' OS. But, since there is a near monopoly with this `Giant'; unfortunately there is not much good alternative around, here:( As of today, the server is fully restored and we took the opportunity to improve the entire website. If you had tried to send us an e-mail but was rejected or not sure if we had received it, please re-sending them again so that your queries can be promptly answered. Apologise for any inconvience caused. THE FORUM & MEMBERS AREA ======================== We took the opportunity to change the port assignments of the additional web servers that host the Forum and Member area:- 1. Forum Changes New URL: http://forum.geomancy.net (Formerly was URL: http://forum.geomancy.net:8080) No longer require port: 8080 2. Members Area New URL: http://online.geomancy.net:8080 (Formerly was URL: http://online.geomancy.net:8081) As mentioned above, the above is transparent to you. These two changes will allow you to virtually log-in from anywhere e.g. during lunch hours at work etc.... OTHER BACK-END CHANGES ====================== This re-installation gave us a chance to clean-up and improve on overall security of all our various web services and allowed us to more efficiently re-organise the installed server software for optimal performance. REAL-TIME SUPPORT CHANNELS ========================== We have increased more Real-Time Support channels, in addition to our Live Chat software, such as the following. All possible real-time or e-mail support channels are grouped together in this Real-Time Support box located at nearly all pages of the website. 1. Geomancy IRC Group Chat It allows group chatting sessions for group particiption as well as an easy yet reliable one-to-one chat sessions with you. You can use our web-based IRC client, or if you have an IRC chat client installed. Just point your IRC software to access our IRC chat server (server: forum.geomancy.net, port 7000). URL: http://chat.geomancy.net 2. Yahoo! Instant Messaging Many users already have Yahoo! Messenger installed and/or Yahoo! support web-based version for new users, so we decided to add this neat feature as another way for users to contact us particularly if we are online. It also allows you to send us offline message in case we are not available to answer your call immediately. URL: http://edit.yahoo.com/config/send_webmesg?.target=geomancynet&.src=pg Hope you enjoy the various changes. Warmest Regards Cecil & Robert Lee GEOMANCY.NET - Center for Applied Feng Shui Research

Dear Anon, You have brought up an interesting question. 1. What career suits me? Overall, in Ba Zi, there are two major types of career aspirations:- Career with wealth (either earned or unexpected) Career with power and authority. Under this category, it is interesting to note that under Ba Zi, a career associated in this field is linked more to a person who becomes a boss as opposed to working for others. Reference:- http://www.geomancy.net/reports/paidreport-examples/paidreport-samples-career.htm 2. A professional look at your palm or palmistry can also look at whether you are more suited in joint ventures; working on your own or working for others. Warmest Regards, Cecil

Dear Ricky, I feel that the information provided by the book is not totally true. 1. In my opinion, what was written is too general to be applied. In fact, Nine Star Ki uses the same numerology as Flying Star Feng Shui. And some FS practitioners treat both as one and the same. Only the methodology used is different. Furthermore, I believe the book does not take into account the following:- 1.1 Date of birth of the house: Period 7 is within 1984 to 2003. 1.2 Personalised to the compass direction of the main door 1.3 It does not take into consideration the mountain nor water stars. 2. Let me illustrate why this is so:- 2.1 Flying Star House Feng Shui takes into account several important variables:- 2.2 Compass direction of the main door 2.3 Birth chart or when the house was born. 3. Only when these two variables are looked into can we then truly ascertain whether there are any #5 if any at South-East sector. 4. To give you an example: this house is located at: 4.1 Main Door Compass direction: 120 degrees 4.2 When house was built: 1999 or Period 7 house 5. This house is known as a South-East House. And at the South-East sector, the current Flying Star numbers are: #9 mountain #7 water with base number = 6 And even the year Flying Star is = 6. 6. From the above illustration, there is not even a single trace of #5 around South-East direction. A sample of the 20 YEAR Flying Star Chart from 1984 to 2003 of the above case is attached for your information. For the 20 year period 1984 till 2003. 7. In this and many other examples, one cannot find #5 (under Nine Star Ki - this is Yellow soil 5). Therefore, I seriously feel that there is a flaw if we use the approach provided by the book. Warmest Regards, Cecil

Dear Linda, As part of net ettiqute, it is best not to use all capital letters. As this implies `shouting'. I believe there is a `leak somewhere in your home'. You can go thru some of the resources here to have a flavour of what a `leak means' and usually what traditional FS practices can do in such situations: http://sg.geomancy.net/consultation/consult-home/leakinexistinghome.htm Warmest Regards, Cecil

Very often, we tend to "read between the lines". This is very dangerous. One should read in total. And not to be too quick to pick and choose random information.

Painting the ceiling of the house.....

Dear Alan, Yes, based on your attachment, the layout is the most favourable (nw-bedplacement-1.gif) based on Shapes and Form Feng Shui. An alternative file: nw-bedplacement-2.gif shows the next best alternative (less the placement of the dressing table - as it is a poison arrow aimed partially at the bed. The dressing table should be placed further away or tilted away (if it does not have a dressing mirror on it). Warmest Regards, Cecil

Dear Serene, It would be best to tie a red string with the 6 coinst tied together. This is preferred if one is using 6 coins. The rationale is because fire element (red) can help to bind or control metal element (especially if it consists of 6 metal or big metal element). Warmest Regards, Cecil

Dear Hoa Luong, Please use this guideline:- If the compass direction falls on or between 142.5 to 157.4 degrees, please select 150 degrees. If the compass direction falls on or between 157.5 to 172.4 degrees, then select 165 degrees. Warmest Regards, Cecil

Dear Anon, Thank you for your sketch. Based on your sketch, it looks like your bed has been placed in a good Shapes and Form layout plan. To confirm, please refer to the attached file and the markings indicated:- Marking `A' preferably your bedroom door should be located here. Marking `C' - windows on this side Marking `D and E' - preferably, the bed should rest against a solid wall. And it is acceptable to have windows on the side of the bedroom at location marked `D' and/or `E'. Frankly, under the Eight House Theory ( East/West Group) of persons, there is not much one can do other than to move room. For those, who want to go further into more advanced Feng Shui can explore using Flying Star Feng Shui. Here, this theory helps to look at any imbalances and if found, one should neutralise the bad sectors. Warmest Regards, Cecil

Further to what I had mentioned earlier, I do not favour floor tiles for the entire house with the checked design (sample shown attached) nor floor tiles entirely black in colour especially for the entire living room area. Warmest Regards, Cecil

Dear Serene, From my past experience, floor tiles even if they are fully wooden (laminate) tiles are no issue in Feng Shui. As should be related more to yin or yang concept. So long as you are using light coloured tiles should be good enough. But tiles especially black with white tiles for the entire house may not be auspicious (even more so if it is all black tiles). This is evident especially if the Shapes and Form Feng Shui e.g. external environment is particularly bad i.e. not good Shapes and Form. This has a pulling power to bring down the Feng Shui of the entire house. Warmest Regards, Cecil
