White Tiger and Green Dragon location

[popeye]

Hi Cecil:
Please correct me if I'm wrong, I was told that the Green Dragon is on our left and the white tiger is in our right without real directions. I mean the direction could be east or west for the dragon or tiger depending on the facing of main door of the house. Let's say my house is north-facing main door, that would mean my east(right) is where the tiger sits, and the west(left) is where the dragon sits. Please advise. Thanks

Dear Jackie,
You have asked a good question.
The Four Symbolic Animals or Four Celestrial Animals Concept can be looked
at in two main areas:-
1. Survey of the Landscape and Site.
Under this area, we will have the Dragon at the East and White Tiger
on the East. A Feng Shui Master will try to find the `Dragon' of a site. A
dragon can be a `real' dragon i.e. the features of a hill or a `false'
dragon e.g. a high rise building or even a road etc...
An excellent site is one where there is a Green Dragon and a White
Tiger " in close embrace " of each other.
When you are in the house facing the main entrance, the Green Dragon is
always on your Right and the White Tiger is on
the left.
2. For Applying Feng Shui `cures' to a site, you must then use the REAL
compass points. For example if your main door is facing East, this sector
`belongs' to the Green Dragon.
Here the distinction must be clear from point 1. Let's take another
example, if your main door faces West or the White Tiger, this is the White
Tiger's domain.
Therefore, the following must be applied `strictly here' :-
If your main door faces: North = Black Tortise sector
South = Red Phoenix
East = Green Dragon
West = White Tiger
Therefore, it is important to note the distinction between para 1 above and
para 2.
Warmest Regards,
Cecil Lee

Dear Cecil,
I am totally confused now ! As Jackie said, I thought that the Green Dragon will be on the left hand side "East" and the White Tiger on the right hand side "West".... Or, regardless of east and west its the left hand side and right hand side of the building looking out ! Please explain.
Thanks

Dear Luna,
The Green Dragon and White Tiger can have two `meanings'.
1st `meaning' based on the Shapes and Form School
==========================================
1. If we are simply looking at the Shapes and Form School of Feng Shui,
then you are correct to say that the Green Dragon is always on the East
while the White Tiger is always on the left. This cannot be changed at all.
2nd `meaning' based on the Five Elements Concept
========================================
2. There is another way of looking at the Green Dragon, White Tiger. This
falls under the Five Element concept. If you notice why call it a Green
Dragon? or a White Tiger? If one looks at the colour chart of the Five
Elements, you will find that :-
Green = True cardinal point East
White = True cardinal point West
When we want to apply the Five elements concept such as to find out the
overall situation, such as applying a `cure'. If say your main door is at
the
cardinal point East, this is the Green Dragon domain.
Is the site an EXCELLENT site?
Here, we take on the 1st `meaning'. We can `grade' a site by looking at the
distinctive features of the site. Better still if we can find a Dragon
embracing a Tiger. This is similiar to the Horse shoe, which surrounds the
back of the house and form a protective barrier. You can thus say that the
1st `meaning' is really meant for applying under the Shapes and Form School.
Therefore, in the above example, the dragon is always on the right and the
tiger on the left.
What happens if we want to understanding the characteristics where the main
door is facing or applying
a cure?
In the 2nd `meaning' we now have to apply the Five Elements Concept. Take
note of the cardinal
point. If the direction of your door is truly West, this has to be governed
by the Tiger domain which is white (white stands for Metal element).
In cures, we cannot say that this is the governed by the Bird (or Red
Phoenix) which under the Five Elements concept is Red = South direction. As
in this example, the main door is not facing South, so we cannot simply
`switch' this West direction to have the `characteristics' of the South or
Fire element.
To sum up, the 1st `meaning' takes on the Shapes and Form School Concept
while the 2nd `meaning' takes on the Five Elements Concept. This is why, it
is understandable why there is confusion over this.
Hope the above clarifies your doubt.
Warmest Regards,
Cecil Lee
