Dear Kieren,

In my opinion, what you mentioned is the wrong direction to take in auditing a home.

What you mentioned suggests that Feng Shui is akin to using `fixed templates'. For example, it is too general to say that North = Water.

Although, that particular sector could be related to Water. But, it does not take into consideration:

1. A person's element and strength i.e. weak wood etc.... There is again a difference if one is e.g. say a weak wood or weak water.

2. If Feng Shui is that simple, and if wealth is so readily available, how is it that no one can yet come up with a book soley about `Wealth'.

3. Unfortunately, there are some books that may give reference to what you have mentioned below. But, I would say (honestly) that this is akin to practising " Kindergarten Feng Shui ".

4. In addition, by associating a sector with an element is like staying in a house without much care of the external surrounding.

For example, the four walls holding up the house may be crumbling but the occupants simply don't care. What they may be concerned is the interior look of their `crumbling house'.

Warmest Regards,
Cecil
