Hang It In The North East

[myfs_88310]

Dear Master Cecil:
I "did not" spend money to buy this 8 metal rod wind chime; therefore, please do not think that I have it because "8" sounds like "prosperity" in Cantonese.
I think the North East is a good direction to hang this 8 metal rod wind chime. Please comment on my reasoning:
#8 is weak earth and NE is earth. Earth creates metal. If there are problems in my NE corner to be cured, metal is the right recipe. If there isn't any problem in my NE corner, this wind chime does not do any harm and I enjoy its metallic sound.
Please let me know if I am on the right track. Thanks.
Warm Regards,
Jen

Dear Jen,
Thanks for the information.
Yes, in your situation, it is acceptable under Flying Star to hang the wind chime there to make metallic sound:)
Warmest Regards,
Cecil

Hi all,
Well, I think we should consider one thing before we hang a windchime. NE is
devil's gate. SW is devil's backdoor.
I'd like to ask Cecil. In my flying star report, the recommended cures for #2 &
#5 are mostly wood. Whereas you usually recommend metal in this forum. The
breadwinner's element is strong water. Do you take account of this factor too?
Thanks in advance.
Regards,
Wasis

1. Often, all three elements under a Flying Star chart is looked at to see if there is an imbalance.
2. A metal cure is far better than using wood. Because wood can become a double edged sword.
3. This is because if we look at the productive cycle:
Water helps Wood in turn
Wood helps Fire in turn
Fire helps Earth
4. Here, wood is a double edged sword because as most of us are aware #2 and #5 are big earth elements.
5. Wood can be used. But one must be careful not to introduce fire. For example, if a sector has #5 and #2 and if fire is introduced when we use a wood cure, this is detrimental.
6. As wood will fuel fire and subsequently fire will fuel more bad earth (#2 or #5).
7. Therefore, the safer element is the use of metal.
8. This is because metal has an added advantage:
9. If we look at the productive sequence, Metal helps to exhaust earth.
10. For the purpose of this forum, it would therefore safer to recommend metal. Since metal often is a good element.
11. Water is a by product and often used inconjunction with metal to create `wealth' under Flying Star.
12. Given the above consideration, I have serously thought out that if readers were to even read between the lines and apply a metal cure, more often or most of the time, a better bet.
13. Wood is OK if we do not add Fire element in the equation else the equation becomes:
Wood -> Fire -> Earth
and in turn, more wood wood fuel more fire and create more earth. If the earth happens to be real bad #5 and #2 these are misfortune/sickness stars.
14. Furthermore, wood itself have two bad wood elements #3 and #4 and chances are, they may fly into a specific sector at some time be it in a specific month/day/hour/minute.
15. In my opinion, because of such fear, that whenever a cure is recommended under this forum (I have to worry about) users getting the wrong (idea).
16. This is because if readers read between the lines and find that wood can be a cure, some may just simply use it without a second thought. I do not want this on my conscience.
17. Going forward, if a posting gives specific star numbers - and if a wood cure can be used, I will certainly recommend it. But also try and state what to look out for.
18. Often, when something can be used as a cure, we often see the commercial side of it. And someone would be clever to exploit it without - looking at the circumstances.
19. For example, if it is mentioned that a wooden wind chime can be used in Feng Shui for a specific purpose, it may in the next few months be exploited as another " Feng Shui " cure all.
20. Metal is most of the time, therefore, a better bet, given such a large audience listening into the forum. And if possible, miscommunication should be reduced.
Warmest Regards,

Further to what I had mentioned:
1. Usually, the cure applied to a Flying Star sector is to neutralise it.
2. As you have correctly mentioned, a bedroom should be harmonised to the bread winner.
3. For example, if one is a a Strong Water person, make sure that the Flying Star sector is in balance.
If the Flying Star sector is out of balance e.g. #5 with #2 and #3, then it is preferred to use a metal cure. This metal cure is used to try to neutralise the bad sector. And often, it is not meant to affect say a Strong Water person.
But, if a sector has too much metal e.g. #6 and #7 with say #8 and year star is only #2 or #3 etc... Since there is already a #6 (big metal) - one should not introduce further metal `cure'. As there is no need for additional metal.
If this is the case, this additional metal may spill over to a person with e.g. Strong Water element.
Therefore, there is a difference between trying to balance a bad Flying Star sector and an over-kill of adding too much other elements even metal element. We should therefore not overeat Feng Shui.
For a strong Water person, after we had taken care of the Flying Star imbalance if any at a sector, we can also look at how to harmonise the room to this person.
Ideally since this is a strong water person, the best element to help him/her is to use wood to absorb his strong water.
But again, if this is at East (Period 7) most of the time there may be bad earth #5. And as mentioned in an earlier message:
Wood helps fuel Fire which helps fuel Earth.
If we inadvertently paint this room e.g. light green (wood) and add red curtains, we would instead help fuel more bad #2.
In such a situtation, even if wood (green/brown) is favourable to this person; we either remove the Fire element or have not choice but to paint it in a neutral (white) metal element colour.
Warmest Regards,
Cecil
