Dear Glyn, When I am around Waterloo / Albert Street, will look around the names of the shops selling such items.. Warmest Regards Cecil

Dear Users, Ever since I moved into this house, both pots of plants have been flowering non stop at the home's balcony at the South side of the house. Picture 1: Showing the pot of plant with flowers on the left side of the balcony. (Facing out of the house) Size of picture 32K, please wait loading... By the way, the balcony of the house faces the swimming pool. Here, I usually relax at the pool and admire it's `Ming Tang effect'. *JOKE* `Practise what I "preach" ' i.e. water at the frontage of the house:) Oops, the picture of the person at the pool side is certainly not me! -- I am the one taking the picture from above. Picture 2: Showing the pot of plant with flowers on the right side of the balcony. Size of picture 36K, please wait loading... Earlier on, I had also posted a picture of a `wooden dragon' I had used to neutralize a poison arrow. The picture of the wooden dragon (which I made do without purchasing a special dragon) is found under the Conference: Wish List / Enhancement / Feedback. Look for a Topic with the word `wooden dragon'. My home is also not immune to poison arrows. As I am also a man. I have to like everyone take precautions against poison arrows. Like Anon, recently mentioned, Flying Star may be powerful but environmental scanning does help to locate poison arrows. After which we need to find a way to neutralise it. When my home had to redo the floor titles, I had no choice but to remove the `wooden dragon' which neutralises the poison arrow. I knew that when I removed the `wooden dragon' I would encounter problems. True enough, it happened. Immediately after the flooring was completed, I placed back the `wooden dragon' and things went back to normal. The two potted plants continued to flower without fail all year round. Immediately after one set of flowers bloom and die, another set takes over. What a lovely sight. I believe that only after one has tasted "bitterness", then, sweetness arrives. I hope the above helps. Warmest Regards, Cecil

Dear Ritter, `Fixed' template or Feng Shui based on Eight Associations or Life Associations on its own is considered too general to be of specific use. Concepts where one must leave the Romance corner "alone" and enhanced is in my opinion like kindergarden teaching in Feng Shui. What happens if SW is the toilet? Does it mean that one must place flowers on the toilet bowl cover and each time when we use it, remove the flowers. Worse still, can we never have romance since SW is in the toilet? The relation flushed into the toilet each time we have one? In my opinion, the above " concept " does not take into account or personalised to an individual. What happens if everyone seeks to do the same i.e. 10 colleagues enhance or out competes each other to enhance their SW sector. If the above sounds sensible, then one should still consider practising Kindergarden Feng Shui. It is best to advance to higher forms of Feng Shui and leave the kindergarden or nursery school behind. In fact, if a house has good Shapes and Form, greater than 50 percent of the `battle' has been won. If a house has excellent Shapes and Form, the marks increases to 70 percent or more or an A+. Here, some do not need to go further using any other Feng Shui principles and yet, have Health, Wealth and Happiness. Warmest Regards, Cecil Lee

I used local Singapore coins to effectively cure a #2 and #5 at home. Picture 1: Shows a close up view of the Six Singapore $1 copper coins over red paper / or Chinese ang pow (red packet). Size of image 20K loading... Picture 2: Shows how it is hanged on the curtain. It is hooked to the curtain using a curtain hook. Size of image 25K loading... Picture 3: Shows the face of the Singapore $1 copper coin (Size of image 7K) Picture 4: Shows the tail of the Singapore $1 copper coin (Size of image 7K) I use 3M Scotch Tape to tape each of the 3 coins onto the Red paper packet. It does not matter if the face or the tail is showing. The red `paper' represents fire is used to control the 6 coins. This location has a #2 and #5 bad stars. So far, in my opinion, it works well to cure the site. Warmest Regards, Cecil

Dear Anon, As requested, please find the photo of the wooden dragon and the poison below:- Please wait (Picture 43K in size) loading... The poison arrow (Picture 12.7K in size) loading... I make do with what I have as a cure. Warmest Regards, Cecil

Dear Joe, Indeed you have asked an interesting question. 1. Very often if one is house `hunting' and go look at houses that are not occupied, when we first step into the house (without first opening the window), when we breathe in the air, some how it is `stale' air. In many cases, after new houses were constructed, when I do the audit, I do feel the above. 2. Here, it is my believe that human Qi is equally important within a house or office for the following reasons:- a. Qi around us can consist of steam, weather, gas and force (atmospheric pressure). b. One unrelated but quite important matter is the moon. For example, high and low tides are attributed to the moons influence on our water system. High and low tides are visible when we sit on the shore. In away, we can say that the earths gravity pull is attributed to the moon's rotation around the earth. 3. Similiarly, the concept of Tai Su or Duke of Jupiter follows the same. In Chinese Astrology, it was felt that Jupiter being such a large planet does have `influences' on us. Even in the West, we hear of terms like the full moon and its effect on our moods. Some Feng Shui practioners also advised their clients to conduct Sales or PR on full moon. 4. The reason why I mentioned the above is that even if we are in an enclosed space, "gravity" can be in away considered the equivalent or near equivalent of explaining atmospheric Qi. 5. Some of us have read of Dangers of Underground water. These are considered `steams' or gases emissions from the ground. But if we are in an apartment / flat, this direct contact is less or `nil'. 6. I believe, many homes and especially office buildings are similiar in someways to your situation where the windows and doors are closed all the time. If we look towards the skyline and we would have noticed that all modern skyscrapers are `sealed' e.g. we see rows and rows of windows. In such situations, usually certain floors e.g. 18th floor, 36th floors have aircondition vents. In my opinon, the air exchange within these buildings are conducted through the aircon ducts. Here, some of the Qi moves thru aircon ducts. There are more including Human Qi which we will look into below. 7. In your case, I can offer one main explanation:- - Human activity that results in Qi flow a. In Feng Shui, there is what is known as our aura and our movement. Those who have well developed Qi has been even captured with thermal cameras. E.g. practioners of Qi gong or Chinese healers who can direct their Qi. Simple movement of humans in the house also contribute to `stirring' Qi. b. Hot and Cold We have lots of household appliances in our house. Two major ones are in our kitchen and e.g. living room. In the living room for example, I believe one can count the number of electrical items ranging from lighting to tv sets. In other rooms, computers etc... 8. We have to remember such items produce heat and inturn changes the pressure around the room. Hot air rises and cold air is drawn into the house e.g. from the gap below the door or `cracks' around the window slides. 9. We have to understand that no house is airtight unless one lives inside a diving bell for example. But in such situations, air is still pumped into the bell. 10. The activity of hot and cold say within the house causes air movement to flow. In the kitchen, if we do cooking, or have a refigerator running, there is some dew and again, there is interaction of hot and cold. 11. Therefore, even if we close our windows or doors, air will constantly `sip' in from around any opening be it small or thru the gaps around windows and doors. Here, one do not need to open the door or window. 12. Placement of fish tank would also add the element of vapour (even how minute it is). I am not sure how fast or slowly the evaporation rate of water into vapours but in hotter countries, this is quite common. 13. Another important point is that even if we do not turn on electrical appliances, the sun rays that `bathe' our house is uneven ie. in the morning, the sun rays heat up the eastern side of the house and at noon it is on top etc... Here, for some houses the walls of the house would have been warmed up at different times and since there is hot and cold, again hot air rises and cold air gets in. I understand that Para 13. would depend on the country each of us are staying. What I wanted to explain is to show `something' each of us can `visualse' with rather than abstract notions of Qi. All these are considered Qi. Warmest Regards, Cecil

Dear Anon, In my opinion, no, halogen lamps are not considered bad. ONly that it has a higher concentration of lighting even if it gives off heat. Many Feng Shui practioners believe that lighting whether it is from a light bulb or halogen lamp is still considered light. To many artificial light is another source of beneficial Qi. Furthermore, there is no impact from its shape because it is small. Warmest Regards, Cecil

Dear Anon, 1. If you are considering the Eight House Theory, usually, it is used to find whether the house is suitable to the breadwinner. 2. Please check your compass direction. If your house is between Compass degree = O degrees to 22.4 degrees; then the house is considered a North house. If the compass reading is between 22.5 degrees to 45 degrees then, the house is a North East House. 3. The Eight House is only an indication as to whether the house is suitable or not suitable for you. Other considerations is required under the Eight House. Such as whether the bedroom you are sleeping is also an auspicious sector. 4. The `battle' of whether the house is auspicious has not been won yet. Many other considerations need to be taken into consideration: a. Shapes and Form School has not been taken into consideration yet. There are tons of books on this subject. Or you can view the resource information on www.geomancy.net b. There are other Feng Shui theories available. This depends on whether you want to go further or merely stop at the Eight House and Shapes and Form. There are many materials and messages on other techniques such as Flying Star and Pillars of Destiny. Please use the SEARCH ICON on the top frame if you want to find out more. Warmest Regards, Cecil

Dear Anon, Yes, all the messages from this forum will be transferred to the new forum. The messages will be compressed and will have faster search feature plus programming new features to make this forum even more user friendly. I also like to apologise if the search takes a while; especially the Free Advice (General Topics) as there are 1750 messages. The search in the forum will be faster because of compression technology and it can be sent to the external pages (outside of this forum) if we wanted to. As mentioned, in an earlier message the new version has a few fatal flaws and only until it is fixed by the vendor, the new version will not be launched. Like the saying goes " If it ain't broken, don't fix it." We will only `fix' or launch the new version after we are satisfied that it is working 100 percent. Warmest Regards, Cecil

Dear Julie, 1. It is good to first use the Eight House Theory to look at the house in relation to the breadwinner's suitability to the house e.g. what is the intangible force at the main entrance door or any other alternative main doors. Next look at the intangible force at the main entrance door. 2. Under the Shapes and Form School, since you house has four levels, where best particularly the toilets should not be above such areas as the bedroom, kitchen (especially the cooking stove), living room or above the main entrance door. 3. The optional method is to use the Flying Star Theory (which can be applied to all four floors) to check out auspicious and inauspcious sectors. 4. But if you are in a real hurry to find out your wealth area. Since, there seems to be four wealth sectors, you may have the wealth sector x 4 times. If so, and you quickly want to find them out, please visit the web forum and locate this conference:- Wish List / Enhancements / Feeback Your answer is in this Topic: Thank you for allowing every body to share their thoughts and views. Please look for my response. The answer is found under Para 8 and 11. Warmest Regards, Cecil

Dear Anon, Most couples are happy with the coming of the Dragon year. To the Chinese, it is considered auspicious to have a child born under the Dragon Year. I mentioned earlier that since this will be a popular year, there will be stiff competition when the child goes to School. Some schools even have to arrange to expand their classes or add an additional class room. One thing about Zi Wei Dou Shu or Chinese Astrology is like it's cousin the Western version of Astrology, it can try to `paint' the story for what is coming but it does not have the ability to provide a solution or cure for an individual. For example, under Pillars of Destiny, if under next year's luck pillar, it is inauspicious, if you know the element involved you can use the Five Elements concept to make full use of it. This is the main difference between Destiny (Pillars) and Chinese Astrology such as the one found at www.lovesigns.net which is popular just like Western Astrology i.e. stars such as Aquarius, Libra etc... Warmest Regards, Cecil

Dear Anon, 1. A house will not only `show' bad combinations but also a mix of both good and bad combinations. 2. In addition to this, I recently mentioned that even if one has perfect house with excellent Flying star, it also depends on external influences. For example, even if the house has not so good Feng Shui based on say the Flying Star Theory, it also depends on the following:- a. The location where one spents time at. b. The individual's Pillars and Luck Pillars. If these are good for the individual, it changes the luck also. Furthermore, especially if the sector e.g. his/her bedroom are in auspicious sectors. c. Shapes and form is another overriding considerations. The house I am currently staying has a neighbours bungalow which is `entrapped' lower and both sides of the roof is like the profile of two hands bringing in luck to my apartment i.e. whatever luck that `falls' to the house is being moved into my house. Here, the house's Flying Star is considered average but because the Shapes and Form over whelmed the current senario. d. A further example is I recently mentioned that my brother was trying to purchase his new home. In Singapore, houses get `snapped' up quickly. Robert armed himself with his IBM notebook and we did online calculations to determine the best house for him. In addition, the new house he bought has excellent Shapes and Form. His unit is at the Apex of the plot of land and although the house is `triangle' in shape, the Apex is like two hands bring in wealth and his master bedroom is at the Top of the plot of land. Furthermore there are double #7's and the base number is equally auspicious. What is unique is that althought the plot of land is triangle, the floor plan is also triangular which to many would consider `inauspicious' but again this depends. I purchased another housing development and my new house due to be completed also has double #7's and is in my opinion equally auspicious. I do not want to elaborate on this as we still own the house. (I would in this instance like to keep the layout and pictures of the house private.) 3. It is difficult to say whether the same bad incidences will occur again. Take the story of my Grand father and the recent message I replied in response to another user asking about is there houses not `fit' for humans. Warmest Regards, Cecil

Dear Anon, For those who are interested to learn about the Kings and Queens, can for example purchase or rent the show called " The Last Emperor ". I believe the lead actor is John Lone. This show traces the life of the Last Emperor of China. I believe the last king died sometime in 198x (correct me if I am wrong). When the last king set on the throne, he was only a boy. In fact contrary to popular belief, Empress Dowager, during his reign was running the Kingdom and managing the affairs. One reason why their is a rise and fall of empires is attributed to time dimension. A burial site may be auspicious at certain periods but become less auspicious in the next period. Similiarly, one period may be good for the ruler, another period worse off. Someone else, may have good periods, and thus another King may take over the present one. Time dimension is therefore, important in Feng Shui. Warmest Regards, Cecil

Dear Anon, In my opinion, these two I believe are separate issues. If one believes that there is `tree enegry' than it should be tree energy outside. It should be able to `extend' into the house like that. But high lamps, the higher they are when turned on is regarded as lighting or light energy. As we have read in the forum, lighting is one of the other common Feng Shui `tools' frequently used by Geomancers. To many Geomancers, pictures are also considered `enhancers'. But it is difficult to say how effective they. Usually, the recommendation is something pleasing to the eye. This is quite subjective so, here we treat it of secondary importance (for the moment). The other enhancers are plants or water positions. Warmest Regards, Cecil

Dear Anon, Apologise for the inflexibility of the forum to allow for `Yesterday' messages. The current version of the forum cannot allow us to do open scripting or change its features. The new version can but we had checked that it has too many bugs and is very unreliable. We will wait for all the bugs to be fixed and patched before even consider using it. Therefore, once this is done, we will use the latest version and implement lots of user friendly features. Thanks for your kind understanding. Like the saying goes.. `It does not pay to be hasty' and I believe in quality. Warmest Regards, Cecil

Dear Desma, The first thing we need to know is that Feng Shui is about balance. For small objects or items such as a ring, it really does not matter. I usually apply the 33.3 percent ruleset. Where, if the item is not greater than the above either in mass, volume or area, it does not really matter that much. Furthermore, I believe, the sharp corners of the diamond should not pose any problems. A square diamond ring, can be considered of the `Earth' element if we talk interms of its shape and some would consider that it is derived from the earth, it is thus an Earth element. (Square shape represents Earth element). In some other culture perhaps, I am not sure if square diamonds are considered `inasupicious'. Warmest Regards, Cecil

Dear Anon, It depends on the cirumstances. Usually, those who require free assistance i.e. will be asked to post to conference OFF-SITE Home Audit (for financial or hardship Only) Here we feel we are able to help those in need and at the same time, others can hopefully learn from it. Will be opened to the public. However, the users can if they choose, use anonymous accounts or click as Anonymous. For other consultations, these are private and not shown in the forum. Warmest Regards, Cecil

Dear Kate, We will continue to help you. There is a Offsite consultation package of a token sum of US$25.00 cases like yours. Later Robert will help you with the rest. The reason why, I did not go further into the details is that we have analyse your element and strength first, plus do a Flying Star analysis. The above will be combined together with further details you had provided earlier on the `Shapes and Form'. This is because, cures to e.g. neutralise e.g. poision arrows or your interior has to be take into account especially the above. Apologise if I did not mentioned the above first. You are correct to use the curtain to cover the window first. Let us go thru your details carefully first. As mentioned Robert will email you privately soon. Warmest Regards, Cecil

Dear Madan, Grateful if you can elaborate further on: 1. Please check what is the inauspicious intangible force at the bedroom. 2. Is the room close to two sectors e.g. such as North and NE or North and NW or is it only located at the North. 3. Please take note that under the Eight House Theory, one should be more concern if one spents most of the time at the location. Rather than if the location is an inauspicious sector. For example, if it is the disaster location and you are sleeping away from it and closer to a less inauspicious sector or an auspicious sector. This is ok. The Eight House works mostly on the priciple that it has to be `activated' by the individual or an activity. For example, if the death/disaster lines at the main entrance, it is preferred to close it. This is an "activity" function. However, the overriding consideration is if you are using other Feng Shui theories especially the Flying Star. Then, Eight House theory takes a `back sit' to the Flying Star Theory. Other than the various considerations under Eight House. I mentioned recently that the position of the bed etc.. must first confirm to the Shapes and Form School before applying the Eight House Theory. As our discussion only centres on the Eight House, you have to note the above limitations when using the Eight House. Warmest Regards, Cecil

Dear Anon, Please e-mail to: robert-lee@3dmail.com , we will provide with free credit for "paid " tools ie. a credit for Flying Star and Pillars of Destiny element strength for you to use to help in finding out what's wrong. Don't worry about, the need to shift house. Usually, it can be `cured'. First get the reports. Thanks. Cecil

Dear Anon, You brought up a very interesting question. My views are as follows:- 1. It has to depend on the quality of the Feng Shui " Master ". Many people simply give themselves title the Master title. Most people who are naive will equate all Masters to be equal. I believe it is best to go to the `root' of the situation by employing a reputable Feng Shui Master/ Practioner either through word of mouth or by their `reputation'. I believe that "You pay for what you get." 2. The best Feng Shui practioners are those who are willing to help others (of course with a fee involved). Contrast this to those who only want to earn money at their expense. Again this is difficult to differentiate if you do not know or have little knowledge of the person. In such a situation, they may not intentionally do you harm but rather, their advise can be damaging. Sometimes leading to even death of a member of the family. 3. If one do not agree with the FS practioner, you have every right not to follow his instructions. Here, sometimes our personal feelings are more `powerful' than the practioners. I suspect here that there is little trust between the two. Warmest Regards, Cecil

Dear John, Sorry about it. Yes, you are correct. Warmest Regards, Cecil I saw her Thanks, John Dear John, So far, down under, I am Warmest Regards, Cecil On That's sort 1. Do you know 2. Given my Once again, thanks for John :)

Dear Anon, It is very difficult for me to comment as I really need to see a drawing of it. As an indent can be a large area or narrow etc... This is only to determine whether there is indeed an indent. As for cures, these are limited. For indents there are frankly no `miracle' cures for such `flaws'. Cures differ also if it is a landed property or a flat. For example if it is a landed property, one can do some landscaping to create a profile of the missing corner. Or place a light to brighten up the place. For a flat or apartment, cures are limited to e.g. placing mirrors to `extend' the missing corner. If you can, try to give me a sketch the layout and upload to the forum as I need to see the full layout plan in order to make further comments. Furthermore, placing mirrors also depend on other schools of Feng Shui such as the flying star. If it is an inauspicious sector, placing mirrors may bounce back double the luck. Warmest Regards, Cecil
