Dear Master Emy,

I read sometimes about spouse star and money star. Is it so that anyone has these star in their charts? What elements are this?

Is it possible also to have a bazi without knowing the time of birth?

With best regards, Aranka

Dear Master Emy,

I have a question regarding about the sitting position when I shift to the new office building next month. There are 2 options that I can choose to position my table in the new building, their details are as follow:

Position 1: (there are 2 readings because it is a L-shaped table, so I can sit facing either side)

W3 - 290 NE1 - 30 A full height parition wall will be behind my back, no view at the back but front view to outside is good Morning sun is on my right side Position 2: (there are 2 readings because it is a L-shaped table, so I can sit facing either side)

SE2 - 130 NE1 - 30

A full glass panel window will be behind my back, back view to outside is good. Morning sun is on my left side

Please advise which position (alternate 1 or 2) is good for me to place my table and the facing direction when work. I cannot provide to you a pictorial view of the layout drawing as I'm unable to paste the drawing to this forum. Many thanks in advance for your valuable advice...

Regards, Eric Han

Thanks a lot. Pyong Yap


July 27, 2009 Dear Master Emy,

Metal objects which like everything is either Yang or Yin,

I've seen most of the recommended items to solve the 2 and 5 using Yang type of metal such as music box, windchimes, mechanical clock.

Can I use Yin type of metal? I have used metal coins and salt cures to combat the 2 and 5.

Can I use the exercise weights which is made of metal?

Thanks and regards.

Hi Emy,

Can I find out what really will cause fire and water clash. I have a small kitchen, of course, fire (the stove) anyhow will be facing the sink. Please advise.

May Love


June 26, 2009

Dear May,

This is another common mistakes that people always fail to recognise. Inside the kitchen Stove next to sink, stove opposite fridge are not exactly Fire and Water clash. Their effect is minimal.

However, the major clash is when KITCHEN'S DOOR FACE DIRECTLY TOILET'S DOOR. This is the real clash. Problem to blood circulation, heart, eyes, kidney and ear.

Dear Emy,

I'm halfway through the process for renovating my new home. Should our living room colors and decoration be decided by direction of the house?

Naomi Mina Anchorage, Alaska

Answer:
Direction of the house has nothing to do with how you should decorate your house with proper colors schemes. In the old days, even though colors were believe to enhance a person or our house luck, but that is not the main concern in FS theory. Classical Feng shui is about direction, location and energy flow (Chi). It is not about how good you're able to interpret it with colors.



Hello,

My girlfriend has allergy and place a 2 feet by 2 feet box fan in the bedroom, blowing out the door with a filter in the back - this is to trap dust particles. eversince that, we are having relationship problems. do you think it has something to do with a fan in the bedroom?

Mauro Ang California

Answer:
Having relationship problems has nothing to do with the blowing fan box. You should check if your bedroom is located in a positive sector and also, the influence of annual Chi (Energy) aka changing patterns of our environment that took place annually and monthly. The ever-changing world is about Yin & Yang. When there's "Positive", there will be "Negative". Nothing lasts forever, Good or Bad.



What should I do if my house main door is at the Northeast "Five Yellow" location for this year?

Bob Lawson Canada

Answer:
You can either hang a metal wind chime on your main door or by using the coins remedy with a special date given to suppress the negative energy produce by 5 yellow.



My main door is located in the southwest part of our house. Above the main door is our bedroom bathroom. Is this bad?

Shelley Tan Singapore

Answer:
In general, main entrance located in southwest sector of your house is considered good. But whether a not the occupants are able to tap into the beneficial Ch'i will depends on his or her personal incoming & outgoing gua. That is why different members living in the same apartment enjoy different type of luck and fortune. Bathroom located in SW sector above will be fine as long as its not fall into the center palace.



Dear Emy, I was born in the year of the Dragon and things didn't work out so well for me this year. Any way, can I enhance my personal interaction with my customer as to boost my sales?

According to bazi reading, my lucky element is fire. Please help me with direct advice what color to paint my room or is I am supposed to wear anything in red.

Cassandra Anne Lum Chicago


Dear Cassandra,

This has been one of the commonly asked questions. Customers who came to us are often surprise that we actually do not give any recommendation on specific colors they should use. Classical Feng Shui is about how environmental energy flow influence us. Its not about what you should wear or how you should decorate your room with colors.

Recently, a visitor writes to us that he has lost his job after painting his bedroom with blue. He is afraid that blue that represent water is his unfavorable colors. We told him that the incident took place not because of the colors but something else. Later we found out that he had accidentally done a small installation work at a bad location for this year. After advising him what he should do, the problem is being resolved.

Here you can see that filling up your room with colors related to your favorable or unfavorable element will never at all influence your luck. Most important is the Qi (Energy flow). If colors are one of an important factor, we must as well paint our wealth corner in blue that represent water rather than placing a real water flow features.

That is why a practitioner with true Classical Feng Shui background will hardly ever advise how you should fill your room with specific colors or what you should wear.



A water feature or fountain in Home Office is said to bring wealth and prosperity when placed in the Southeast area (Universal Wealth Sector) of your home office.

Please advice.

Thelma Ong Australia

Answer:
That's a "New Age" theory. Southeast sector should never be regarded as Wealth corner. Money luck will increase if there is a water source at the west of the house.



Is there a wealth corner in every house? Does Southeast represent wealth?

Nelson Pho Anchorage

Answer:
Yes. Every house has its own wealth corner. It is where the timely star responsible for wealth being located. A precise measurement has to be taken to locate the corner. Do not jumble with New Age BaGua. Southeast sector does not represent wealth.



Is it advisable to hire more than one Feng Shui master to perform an audit?

Rose and Keith Las Vegas, NV

We know many people do that and make comparison. Our advice is never ever try that. You're just making things worst unless you're sure of their skills.

Is it better to have oval or square shape furniture in my living? I hear having square shapes are bad for Feng Shui. Last of all, do I need special measurement for its length and height?

Any cure to put someone with sleepless night into good sleep? It seems I do not enjoy sleeping at all.

Kelly Wilson Colorado

Answer:
Yes, different location of placing one's bed for good night rest can be affected by incorrect placement especially palace related to direct & indirect spirit. But you may want to confirm this before hiring a consultant. How long you have been using the same mattress? Is it out of quality? Sometimes it does happen not because of bad feng shui. We ever came across similar cases and find out that the occupant has been using the same mattress for more than 15 years. After he had change to a new one, everything solved. Please keep us upated.



My best Sheng Qi direction is at south, is it best to invite the laughing Buddha or lively dragon to guard my wealth & look after family harmony?

Nene Laspin California

Answer:
Hi Nene, Sad to say that your theory are based on superstition instead of feng shui. Classical or Traditional Feng Shui is mainly concerned with how the energy or Ch'i is harnessed from external environment into our premises. It had nothing to do with man-made objects that signified wealth or protection.

These objects is not going to affect the ch'i in your Sheng Qi sector and creates results. What you can do is to use this favorable location often, e.g locating your bed and work desk.



Some people said it's not good to know your future, is it true?

According to my diagram of my new house, 8 facing star is located in my missing sector. Does that mean the 8 star is going to set outside my house?

Diane New York

Answer:
Yes. For your case you need special formation to connect the beneficial chi from the 8 star if its located near your main entrance. But again, the beneficial flow will be reduced. That's is why we will do not encourage occupants to purchase a house with too many missing corners or irregular shapes.



How can one unlock the prominent 8 facing star at the center? Cattie United Kingdom

Answer:
Depending on your house structure. Facing star 8 in the center palace does not always mean "Trap". You need special water formation to unlock the star.



Should we design a company logo according to a person's self element, favorable elements, industry element or lucky color of period 8?

Philip Tang Monterey

Answer:
In a way you can if you're sure about your personal helpful elements. But again, by introducing this system to blend with self-element, you're not going to change your luck much. It only represents 5% or even less. That is why we do not encourage our customer to practice that. You should go for the colours or vector forms that correspond to your corporate image.



Dear Emy,

Thank you so very much for your help and guidance, we greatly appreciate it. The logic of your explanation makes sense. We'll never forget your great help, you have a big heart of gold. Thank you very much, you made my day & wishing you all the best!

Annie Seward Alaska

Answer:
Dear Annie, You're welcome!

My Kua number is 4. My work desk is facing North East, is this a bad direction for me? What is my best facing position for work?

Wendy Ong Eagle River, Alaska

Answer:
Eight Mansion System are only part of Classical Feng Shui. You can't base on the theory to decide should NE direction is regard as Worst direction. You need other application and a detailed study of your office Structure. For instance what if you're facing towards the North "Sheng Qi" direction which seems beneficial but in actual fact, you're located in a Bad sector? You must know the different between "Location" and "Direction".



Hi Emy, I just came from a search on the 8-Mansion Theory. Is Sheng qi the best direction out of the 4 lucky areas? I'm planning to paint the best direction in green. Could you please advice me any other way to enhance the location. Doretta Smith Fairbanks, Alaska

Answer:
Eight Mansion or Bazhai is an interesting application but yet it can sometimes be misleading. In general, this system is to determine our favorable and unfavorable direction and Sheng Qi is often regards as the best direction. But if you were to dig deeper into the system, it does not necessary mean that.

Coloring the Sheng Qi location in green is a totally wrong concept. Because of its association with wood element, doesn't mean it had to look greenly. This system is about location with direction. If you're trying to enhance your Sheng Qi, You should use the sector often, for instance, placing your work desk and so on.



I like to find out when I renovate my office in the current period, it becomes period 8, right? The thing I am concerned is that the building that house my office is period 7, and it is only my office that get renovated, so should I use the period 7 or 8 chart? Secondly, the building entrance is facing se1, but the main door to my office face another different direction, I should use the facing direction of the main building or rather the direction of my office main door? I appreciate if you can help me over here.

Frank Frazier Texas

Answer:
Your office will remain and follows the period of the whole building, which are period 7. To determine the facing direction, you need to take note of which feng shui formula you're applying. Both building and door facing are equally important. If you're using the flying star theories, you must focus on the direction and intention of the whole building.
