As mentioned in my forum message; priority should be given (where possible) for your son to spent time at a good sector; first.

After this is `satifisfied' then, it is nice to have him face e.g. his education direction NE.

Thus, facing NE is secondary or less important then spending good time at a good sector - Under the Eight House Theory.

But if the sector is not as good; then, one can still try to face NE. But this is as mentioned - of secondary importance.

It is recommended that one understands the aim or purpose of the theory that you are currently using.

The aim of Eight House theory is:
1. Find out how suitable e.g. the house is to the breadwinner.

2. It is good to SPENT time at a good sector.

3. It is NICE to have one face a good direction but this has to first take into consideration the Shapes and Form of the bedroom and Para 2 above.

Unfortunately, no-where under the Eight House theory is there any mention that it can be used as a cure.

Thus each Feng Shui concept must be understood in their perspective.

Here, it is like trying to squeeze out something (magic) out of a theory that does what it says it does only.

It is similar to a child who may be considered an average child. And we as parents may instead want to expect more out of the child.

If you are the breadwinner, one can say that the house especially if the `Excellent' is the intangible force - imply that the house is suitable to you.

However, this is only considering one aspect of Feng Shui e.g. Eight House Theory.

Again, it is good to understand the purpose or aim of the Eight House theory. It goes no further as what I mentioned earlier.

Usually, many of us, may perhaps, come to expect more than what a single Feng Shui concept can do... and if it does not offer a solution; does not necessary mean that e.g. it is a failure or failed theory or that Feng Shui cannot work properly.

For those who are also reading this message, it is good to take note again of the following:-

The three steps:-

Step 1:

Always find out what is the aim or purpose of a concept, theory or idea. Every concept, theory or idea must have an aim or purpose.

Step 2:

What is it's strengths.

From here, we can then understand what it is useful for.

Step 3:

What is it's weakness.

Here, I mentioned that by understanding this question about the concept/theory... we can then `take pity' on the concept/theory and NOT squeeze in vain - what is has never been expected to perform.

I hope forum members, do remember to look at all concepts and ideas based on these simple steps and you are on the way to practising good `wholesome' or logical (many times) commonsense approach to Feng Shui.

Warmest Regards,
Cecil
