TIPS FOR THE K ITCHEN (feedback urgent pls)

[myfs_103157]

Hi Mr. Cecil Lee:

I have finally gotten a unit andmy relativeinsisted that i seek out their fengshui master. The master went all over the house with a compass and said everything was okay except for the stove facing and color. He advised me to change the stove facing - facing in the east (please refer to attached diagram) however the MAIN electrical circuit breaker is located at top of the supposed location of the stove. The architects do not advise this since it is very risky to have the gadgetnear heat. The masterdid not mention any option for stove facing. Ijust needyour expert advise andthe other options for the stove facing while thereinterior constructions is still ongoing and we could make changes.Hope to hear you from you soonest. Best regards...concon

Dear Anon,

To be truly honest, I don't have all the available information.

Usually, a master relies often on the female (women of the house) ba zi to orientate the stove position.

Since for practical reasons, because of the main electrical circuit as well as (from the picture) it looks like stove may not fit the area especially if it has 3 or 4 hobs. This position looks more like one small table hob type of arrangement.

It is good to quickly call up the master for further advise. In Feng Shui, I believe there are still alternatives e.g. the use of mirror to correct the situation.

From classical Feng Shui point of view, fortunately, your stove is not at one of the worst position i.e. "Fire at heaven's gate" or NW. But at compass sector West. Therefore, without considering the family ba zi, it can still be within tolerable limits - generally speaking.

Often, when we are asked to change position, frankly, it is always good to ask the master, the rationale for doing so. Hopefully, your master can share some light to it or give you further practical alternatives -- since Feng Shui should not be too rigid without considering other external limitations.

Warmest Regards,
Cecil

Dear Anon,

After taking a second look at your sketch, althought the sketch is not to scale, but based on your sketch, the stove seems to be close to or at the centrepoint of the home.

Based on one criteria of Shapes and Forms Feng shui, where possible, a fire position should not occupy the centrepoint of the home. Should the cross lines of your compass marking (thru scale) does not cut into the centrepoint = stove then, it is ok.

This is especially true especially where a toilet bowl should where where possible not be at the centrepoint, also.

Warmest Regards,
Cecil
