Dear Aimie,

Apologise for the late reply as I have missed your message.

Based on the popular Chinese saying: 1st Destiny, Second Luck and third Feng Shui; if we analyse this statement, we will notice that LUCK is on it's own.

It is best to understand each concept clearly. By doing so, we will then know the purpose of the concept:

1. Pillars of Destiny maps our Heaven LUCK. It is considered a full picture of what luck "the Heaven" had given us.

Some may ask what happens if both of us are born at the same time? Do we have the same set of luck.

Under the Pillars of Destiny, internal and external influences changes our luck even for two persons born the same time. This is explained by us interactions with our immediate family, our personal experiences especially our education. With all these interactions, we no longer have the "same set of luck." Pillars of Destiny therefore qualifies it this way.

Many FS Masters say that by better understanding our Pillars of Destiny, we can change 60 percent of our Heaven Luck.

2. Most of us are familiar with Feng Shui. While Pillars of Destiny maps out our Heaven Luck, Feng Shui is more earth bound. Here, we can have some influence on our Earth Luck.

3. LUCK, simply is `luck'.

4. With career and romance, it will have to do with many factors.

Unfortunately or fortunately, one way of seeing things (other than purely based on manipulation of Qi = Feng Shui) to a certain extend, some who `take up' Feng Shui or believe that by placing a picture of a loved one at the SW corner, could perhaps, strength the person's resolve etc... and thus provide the person with greater confidence.

True traditional Feng Shui is about manipulation of Qi such as planning for a city etc... examples such as many Chinese cities are built on this premise such as Canton and even Hong Kong and lesser emphasis placed on such a micro level e.g. a studio apartment etc...

We must always bear this in mind and not take `Feng Shui' or `Destiny' to be a `cure' all.

Warmest Regards,
Cecil



Hope the above helps.

Warmest Regards,
