Dear Anon, Anonymous wrote: Based on the free Personal Ba Zi/Feng Shui Element Report that I hv received from yr website, I hv noticed that my Kua no.is 4 and wood element. Like it mentioned, Kua is 4 and the element of the Kua is Wood element. However, since Kua is based only on the YEAR of birth it does not give the most accurate breakdown of your birth element. Just like if one is born in 2006 (Earth Dog), if you based on the ba zi from the YEAR of birth then you are a Earth element. These is correct, but not the most accurate form of your true element. Depending on which day you are born, you can be a weak water/strong fire etc born in the Earth dog year. So that more exact breakdown of your element based on your day of birth is what we are more interested. Anonymous wrote: However, on the 2nd page, it stated that my Birth element isWeak Metal. So, I am rather confused - what is the difference between the Kua element and the Birth element? This portion of the analysis is the one that consider your day of birth. Therefore, this is the true personal element. In ba zi what we are looking for is the true personal element ie a weak metal person born in say a Earth Dog year. Like I mentioned, Kua number is useful as it gives you information such as 4 good and 4 bad directions, however, it is not the most accurate as it calculated from the YEAR of birth only. However, despite it's simplicity it is still one of the concpet in feng shui. You need to know which concept is important and how to prioritise them. Like I mentioned, there are several ways to determine a person's element, but the best is via the ba zi day's element. This gives the true ba zi element. Hope that helps.

It is percentage that is most important as the number of each element does not really tell much as depending on seasons strengthen the element will have different percentage. What is important is you are a weak Water, and you lack more Water (2%) compared to Metal (18%). Wood, Fire and Earth are unfavourable for you. However, some portion of Wood is still acceptable for you because you have only 4% of Wood. While you should avoid Earth at all cost, followed by Fire. The idea is to have exactly 20% of each element. So those element that is too high in percentage you have as little as possible. Those with low percentage you can have more but should first cover your favourable elements first then unfavourable as last. That means you should first have Water followed by Metal, then only when you have sufficient Water and Metal then some Wood will do you good.

Dear Marilyn, marilyn o wrote: but does that mean we wont handle it well? because we have no choice but to inherit the business. Im a weak water, will it help if i also work in their family business? I won't really know exactly until a detailed ba zi is done for your husband. I mean I am basing my advise on information you are provided. ie your husband is a Strong Water. Which means that Favourable elements are Wood, Fire, Earth. While unfavourable elements are Metal and Water. So if based on the above, yes it is not likely that he will benefit from this kind of business. However, there are other factors that will need be considered to be able to know for sure. For example, what is the exact percentage of the elements in your husband chart? ie is the Strong water due to a higher percentage of water or metal. I mean if your husband chart is such that there is maybe 5% water and 40% Metal, then I can say for sure that Metal career won't do him much good. marilyn o wrote: if Fire is good for him, its weird he had try opening up a small restaurant before but it closed because it didnt work out. There are a lot of factors in determining success of a business:- 1. Some people are just not businessman type material, that means heis better working for others rather than starting his own business. 2. Secondly, opening restaurant is more Earth (Food industry) rather thanFire element. Like I earlier mentioned, I have no idea what is the percentage of your Metal element in your husband chart. If it is too much, then earth may not be the most ideal element for him. So far the most suitable for him should be Wood simply because Wood exhaust Water. But again, it depends on the percentage of teh five element breakdown. 3. Location, Location & Location is often the most important factor for the a success of a shop/business. If the location is bad, then it is hard for people to come even if the food is good. The rest depends on your food, pricing and target market.ie you have nice food, but you target the wrong group of people etc=high failure.

Dear Marilyn, marilyn o wrote: is zi wei the same as ba zhi? a fengshui who did our ba zhi before ( i doubt if accurate because he said my lucky element is fire while in geomancy. net my lucky elements are water and metal). anyway, he said that my ba zhi will harm my husband and so is my husband. but it is washed out because it clashed each other. Zi Wei is basically more Chinese Horoscope/Astrology. We often do not use it as part of Feng Shui analysis except for it's compatibility analysis. Thus, we even have a fun with horoscope site for this purpose. As the title Fun with horoscope means that it is more for fun. URL: http://www.lovesigns.net As for your previous master, I really do not know what method exactly did he or she use in analysing your results. I mean I have come across masters that use Eight House Kua element as your birth element. But this is only uses the YEAR of birth, so it is questionable how accurate this analysis can be. Some I seen using only Ba Zi Year of birth element (ie 2006 is Earth Dog so you are considered Earth element etc). However, in reality, different day will give you different elemnt. So like you can be a weak water or strong fire person born in Earth dog year. Thus, it is important that the day of birth be considered. Some do very preliminary ba zi chart so it is not able to deduce your weak/strong element properly. ie if the full ba zi chart isn't analysed in detail, you may find that a basic chart may be weak water, but when done in detail it is actually strong water. a weak water and strong water are two different type of chart thus having different favourable and unfavourable elements. So there are many ways to analyse your birth element. However, the most accurate method is the use of ba zi. Our website tool will give you the right deduction of your true ba zi element. So you won't go wrong if you use it. Like I mentioned, in my earlier reply to this post. There are some chart that can be considered not compatible, but often there are also ways to improve or harmonise the relationship to reduce any potential conflict. The rest depends a lot on the two persons whether they are willing to give and take to make the relation work. Warmest Regards Robert Lee GEOMANCY.NET - Center for Applied Feng Shui Research

Dear Anon, Anonymous wrote: I visited a master recently and was told that my zi wei dou shu will harm my hubby, or what they say as "ke fu". I am very troubled over this but realised that the hour of birth given was wrong. Please advise if this is true. I am bornon 1975, 7th jan 1pm To be frank, fortune telling can be bad thing. I mean if you really believe it so much, you actually make it happen because you believe it to be true. This is why as far as our website is concerned, we never ever focused on fortune telling. I mean if a fortune teller is really that good, he won't be a fortune teller as he should be able to predict when he or she can have wealth etc. So really do not think you should worry too much furthermore information you provided was incomplete. I personally do not view much of such adverse reading such as a ke fu / die young chart etc. In any case, under feng shui especially, we believe more in understanding what is roughly your given luck, and how you can balance up your home, your relationship etc to make thing more smooth. We always believe, that if you can maximise the luck from your home, create the right environment to improve harmony, then rest depends a lot on your own effort. I mean if both of you put in the effort, you will be able to gain success and have a long and lasting relationship with the right environment.

Dear Chun Da Lee, Chun Da Lee wrote: Hi, I'm born in a year of Wood Hare in 1975. I Heard from some people said that if you have an element of wood you must avoding having kitchen below your bedroom where you sleep. Because Kitchen is an element of fire and will burn the people who sleep above it especially if that people is from wood element. Is this true??? Actually, having a kitchen below a bedroom is generally bad irregardless of what element you are. I mean whether you are a weak earth, weak wood etc. This is because, the potential of a fire starting from the ktichen is always higher. And irregardless of what element you belong too, if there is a fire you may be burned by it. It does not mean that if you are a weak earth and fire is good for you, that if there is a fire, it will not kill or burn you. So kitchen below a bedroom is ideally not good. This is true. Chun Da Lee wrote: If this is true, how can I correct it? If there is a way to correct it, how to do it without me moving out to another room??? The most practical way is to install a smoke detector even a watersprinker. At least in case of a real fire, it will give you some warning and give you enough time to escape. This is much better than believing that by putting6-coins metal or other traditional feng shui cure to be effective. I mean if there is a fire, all these items will melt. Hope that helps.

Dear Marilyn, marilyn o wrote: which is main door? the 1st steel gate of the whole property or the wood main door of the house? Since this is a landed property, then you should take the facing of your house. ie which is the frontage of your home. We do not take the steel gate because depending on the plot of land, sometimes where the gate is isn't exactly where your house faces. So you should focus on the house and which is considered the front of the house. marilyn o wrote: if its the actual door of the house, is it bad to have part of a post (the corner/edge is Not POINTING to the main door, just the side) is this also considered as poison arrow? Usually, it is the corner of the object that we consider the sha qi. Otherwise it is not.Also,we consider how big the threat in comparison to thehome. If it ismuch better than the house, then it is a great threat that should be corrected, else it is a minor threat and sometimes can be ignored if no way to fix it. Hope that helps.

Dear Marilyn, marilyn o wrote: my husband is strong water and his family is into buy & sell of steel. is this ok or very bad? his dad is starting to transfer the business to my husband and if this kind is not compatible with his element. Is there something we can do since this is only our means of living? As a Strong Water, this means that in general your husband must already have either too much water or too much metal. So ideally buying and selling of steel (Metal element industry), won't be too beneficial for him. The only way to help balance his excess Strong water, is to have more Wood, Fire. ie staying in a Wood (East/South-east) or Fire (South)house. Or to have a job scope focusing on Wood (Distribution/Growth/Technology/Transport) or Fire (Sales/Marketing).

In general, transformation can take place whether the day pillar combines with another pillar within the chart or with the 10-year luck pillars. Difference will be transformation in the 10-year luck pillars are not permanent. Meaning it will revert once the luck period change. And the effect will only last for that 10-year luck period. Same goes for the yearly pillar. Transformation in the main chart, will be more permanent unless it is a transforamtion but not havepermanent change. ie the original element still prevail because the conditions are not right for a permanent transformation.

Dear Grace, Anonymous wrote: I have my waterstar8 in the NE sector of my home according to flyingstarchart.However I am doubtful inactivating it as it says in San He water method-Not to place water in northeast ,this being period8.Your advice One cannot just blinding activate a star without considering other factors such as the other stars in the sector or whether it is an appropriate asector or not. For example, if NE is not a living room or clear space, then you will not benefit from activating the water sar. Or if the other stars in the sector will in activate other bad stars, then it may not be beneficial to activate the sector. Though, in a house one might have the possibility to activatemountain star/water star etc. However, if they arenot appropriate to activate, thenyou can't benefit fromactivating it.

Dear Anon, Anonymous wrote: I see that some feng shui masters advise that at least the door, the stove and the floors must be renovated or changed, and then you can consider the change of a period 7 House to period 8 House.

Or if the building in which the apartment is paintedwithin a period 8 period is already considered a Period 8 apartment building? There is another symobolic luck change. ie. re-painting of the ceiling or entire house all in one go. Then having several major celebrations in the house can force the house to fly over. But the change will not be immediate. ie. if painting of the ceilling (especially) is not done in one go or only the external house was repainted. These alone will not cause the house to fly over to the new period. Most of these are considered minor repairing or touchup so it does not really change the qi. Hope that helps.

Dear Daniel, Daniel Ho wrote: I got a Solid Bronze Prosperity Pig with Gold Ingots and Jeweled Necklace and would to place it in my office desk for Wealth Luck. True feng shui has nothing to do with items at all. It is more about good location of the home/office, favourable colour scheme to balance up the room or your individual ba zi, best sitting/work/sleeping positionetc.Thus, a person luck is affected by the Heaven, Earth and Human Luck. Heaven Luck is luck that is given to you. Which is usually assesed by the ba zi to tell you what colours, what facing, and how to harmonise with another person. Earth Luck is your home/office. The location of the home/office is what can affect your luck given luck. So this often the most important factor. Human Luck is your relationship and anything that can make you feel good etc. Such items that you mentioned Solid Bronze Prosperity Pig are more symbolic represenation of good luck. And all it affects is the Human Luck. It only makes you feel you that is about all. It does not have special power or properties. Daniel Ho wrote: I'm not sitting in a single room office, but a big room sharing other colleagues. It happened that one of the empty corner of the desk is a southeast direction. And i would to place the Prosperity Pig there. Should the Pig head be facing me, or facing away from me (looking at SE direction) So if it makes you feel you, feel free to place it where you can see it. So really, there is specific placement involved for such items. If any, it would be to have the item face you when you work so that it is like the pig is wishing you wealth luck. Generally, you can follow these principles:- 1.If the items is small, then it should face you when you work. 2. If the item is bigger and usually for the whole familiy, then you place in like display area in the good sector or facing of the house so that it is like welcoming good luck into the home for everyone. 3. You only palce items in a specific direction such as Qi Lin or Bagua to block like sha qi etc. Hope that helps. Warmest Regards Robert Lee GEOMANCY.NET - Center for Applied Feng Shui Research

Dear Anon, Anonymous wrote: My Kua number is 3 and my husband Kua is no.5. What is the best direction to keep us harmony and blend well together. Pls advise. We normally do not use Kua number to determine compatibility between two person. Kua number is used more to determine your individual favourable directions. Each person, will have his own her own good direction, so you use that for the best direction for your own work/office position. 1. For a house - The breadwinner must have the best facing direction, then the spouse get a better bedroom. Try to ensure that at least neither facing or bedroom falls under one Death/Disaster for either person. So for example, your besthouse facingis one for example North-East (Excellent for husband, and Irritation for yourself), while a good bedrom located in East (excellent for yourself, and irritation for your husband). This way your husband get luck from the house, you get luck from the bedroom. 2. For bed placement - You should still follow the shapes and form principles, ie bed place where you can see the people entering into the room and have the bed anchored to a wall. Then if you have choice between two placement, then you can check to see which direction falls under either of your good directions while avoiding death/disaster for either person. 3. For other personal position - each of you can place the table or chair in the best direction that for individual person. If you do that, you will find the best balance for two person. As for increasing harmony etc, you will need to check on the ba zi element and find out what element is suitable to both person and try to have the bedroom colour in the common element so as to improve harmony. Hope that helps. Warmest Regards Robert Lee GEOMANCY.NET - Center for Applied Feng Shui Research

Dear Chong Fu Keong, Chong Fu Keong wrote: I am staying on the 10flr. Where do I take the reading of the compass direction. Centre of the hse facing the main door and at the centre of the door ( as seen your sample) or the balcony or living room In general, we have come up with some guidelines for the facing direction to make it easy to apply. For apartments (2nd - 7th level), you take the main door as your house facing. ie standing at the main door looking outwards. For apartments (8th level and up), you take the facing direction of the living room/balcony. ie stand inside your living room looking outwards. These two method give you facing direction which allows your flying star to be extended beyond your own home. Taking the main door from the center point is also another method, but that will mean you only assess the qi for the interior of the house only. So each is for different purpose. So you should just take the facing from the living room/balcony, depending on which has greater among of light entering the house since you are on 10 floor. Mostly it will be living room as that is where most light enters into the house for high floors. For those with a separate living room and balcony, then will need to see the layout plan to be able to confirm.

Is my dinning area a good location ? I believe most aparments now-a-days you will either see the dining area or living room once you enter the door. So not a big issue. As for whether the dining area is good, depends on the flying stars in that sector. Chong Fu Keong wrote: Why some FS said youcannot sleep in the direction that you are not aware of people coming in ? This is becase the reason why most bed should be place where you can see people entering in the room is to be able to react when there is thief entering into the room. Especially, in the past if you have the bed away, when someone wants to enter to assinate you, you will be able to see him coming to be able to react. At least this was how this theory was used for.

Of course, it is not as ideal. In general, the bed should be best still anchored to the wall. That means that it should be be left floating in the middle of the room. So as long as if you shift into a diagonal position and the bed is still anchored to a wall (or if you build some kind of hidden cupboard to fill up the space at he corner, then no issue at all.

It is just that the WC location should not be located directly behind the bed sharing the same wall.

Dear Jazz, Jazz jazz wrote: with regars to checking own zi wei dou shu, would like to check how much difference it will make if time of birth is wrong, eg bet 1am and 1pm? In ba zi, time of birth may affect some of the character analysis and overall five element percentage. But in general, only a few hours really differ from having only the day of birth analysed. Unless element strength is different (ie weak water changed to strong water), there will no be too great a difference. Often, our advise is not sure, take an analysis without the hour of birth as the foundation analysis. In Zi Wei Dou Shu (Chinese Astrology/Horoscope), it is also quite similiar, the likelyhood is some character analysis may not be as accurate. But since horoscope are usually focus on YEAR of birth, so that is the more important factor. But in general, horoscope readings are just more for fun and compatibility, so no real harm even if it is wrong. Hope that helps.

Hi, tan jhj wrote: this ziwei master kept a copy of my ziwei analysis, saying it is for his database when i ask the ziwei chart from him. In general, this is entirely up to the consultant whether or not they do want to keep a copy or not. It really depends a lot on what kind of services they offer. For example, any face-to-face analysis, usually is done on the spot. So any information analysed should be given to the client. No real need to keep a copy. Even if they do keep a copy (usually to make it easy for their clients to ask further advise or request for it again if they lost it), they should remove/destroy the data should you do not want them to keep it. For example, any online based analysis, may keep the database of the data entered by the client, so that the clients do not need to re-enter them if you need to access it. Since these are online based services, the data are stored on computer server and only accessable by the administrator managing the system. But the option to delete the information or request for the information to be removed should be given to the clients. So you will be in control of whether you wish to keep or delete the information. tan jhj wrote: Does most ziwei orbazhimaster have practice to keep customersbazhi?

Hi, tan jhj wrote: I heard from my mum that a master once advise me not to give my bazhi away coz someone may steal my life after he/she know my bazhi. Recently, i went to see a Tzi Way teller to ask him to get my fortune told. However, i unknowingly gave him my bazhi to the very hour and min which i am born. Now i am worried. In general, most fortune tellers if any is supposed to keep your information confidential. This means that they are usually not supposed to reveal it to a third party. Furthermore, as they normally check up for so many people, it may be difficult for them to remember each and everyone. So it is unlikely for them to abuse the information, unless they are bent on causing harm. Feng Shui in general is to help one create harmony. However, there are in the past things like charms or talisman (more taoist related), that uses these information to put curses or control the dead etc. I believe some of these can be used to create some harm to a person. So probably that is what your mum is more worried about. However, I can say that most of this art isn't really practiced now-a-days, furthermore, these are more spiritual belief that is based on several chinese beliefs, religious beliefs etc. Most modern people know that most of these are untrue. Furthermore, it is highly unlikely that a fortune teller who calculates many many people chart can remember all the information unless he/she really intend to keep a copy of the information about you. So I really do not think you have to worry. Hope that helps. Warmest Regards Robert Lee GEOMANCY.NET - Center for Applied Feng Shui Research

Other factors apart from these are considered as good to have if possible. Hope that helps. Warmest Regards Robert Lee GEOMANCY.NET - Center for Applied Feng Shui Research

Dear Desmond, Desmond Woo wrote: I am a weak fire element person.My favourable jobs belongs to wood and fire element. In your website,you mention Engineering field belongs to the wood element, but are you refering to all engineering jobs or only applies to certain engineering field? Is Electronics Engineering belongs to the wood element or metal element? Can you give me some advice? No basic engineering is Wood, however not all forms of engineering is Wood. For example, Civil Engineering is more Earth, Mechanical Engineering is more Metal etc. So really depends on what you area are you working with. Electronics Engineering is Wood element. Hope that helps. Warmest Regards Robert Lee GEOMANCY.NET - Center for Applied Feng Shui Research

Dear Sharlene, Sharlene Soh wrote: Qn 1: My wealth element should be wateras it clashes with fire. However, could earth too be my wealth element as it reduces fire? You are a Strong Fire, so your wealth is Metal element. The element that your element can destroy. A weak fire is one that lacks of Wood and Fire, thus considered weak. A strong fire is one that has too much of Wood and Fire, thus considered strong. So as a Strong Fire, you want to have elements that can control or bring down your excess fire. That means Earth that helps you exhaust your Fire or Water that destroy your Fire. And even Metal which helps to destroy your excess Wood. However, which element is your most favourable elements depends a lot on the percentage of the elements in your chart which is only available in the paid reports. Free report you will not know exactly the exact percentage of each element. Given you mentioned that you have 5 earth, there might be a possiblity that you have too much of it already. So you will probably benefit more from either Water or Metal elements. Qn 2: As mentioned above, I am a strong yin fire person, therefore, wouldn't it be unfavourable if I work in the fashion industry which is a fire element? Yes, you will not benefit from a fire element career if you are a Strong Fire. Qn 3: Also, I have a strong interest in acquiring knowledge relating to feng shui and may consider becoming a feng shui master as a career. As feng shui is considered as wood element, therefore, would it mean that it would be unfavourable for me to venture into feng shui as a career? Yes, you will not benefit from a wood element career if you are a Strong Fire. In both qn 2 and qn 3, you need to ensure you have lots of your favourable element first before you can benefit from Wood element in general. Otherwise, you will not benefit from having an unfavourable element. Warmest Regards Robert Lee GEOMANCY.NET - Center for Applied Feng Shui Research

Dear K.roll, If you had bothered to do some searching in the forum, you will find that this question has been replied many many times. This forum has an archive of over 9 years worth of knowledge. I hope that all other users reading this post, will also do the same. This can save lots of our valuable time in replying post rather than to repeat replying a similiar answer each and every time. K.roll Salamoun wrote: My Kua number is 1 and my husband's kua number is 2.Knowing that each number has its own favorable/bad directions, how can we manage to simultaneously activate our favorable direction?(example: bedroom location, sleeping position....) It is common to have two kua types. So you need to just know how to prioritise the concepts. 1. For the breadwinner of the house, the house should be suitable to him/her. This way he/she will get the luck from the house. Since he is the breadwinner, if he does well, the rest of the family will benefit from it. 2. For the spouse of the breadwinner, since the chart is opposite, the house may not be the most suitable for her. So, she should get a bedroom sector that falls under her good sector. This way, she will get the luck from the room, while the breadwinner gets the luck from the house. This way even if the breadwinner isn't that suitable to the room, it is not too bad. 3. If possible, try to avoid Death or Disaster for either party. So if the house facing for the breadwinner is Prosperity, while the spouse is Disaster, then better to go for another direction where the breadwinner is say Longevity, while the spouse is spook/irriation. Sames goes for the bedroom if possible. If not, then at least avoid Death sector. 4. The rest of the family as long as they have a suitable bedroom sector, they will individuall get luck from the bedroom sector. 5. Last but not least would be the best bed direction. Shapes and form arrangement of the bed is takes priority followed by the best bed position. So if you follow the above, you will find that it is perfectly acceptable to have complete opposite Kua number. Just that you need to know how to give priority so that each person can get luck from one area. Hope that helps. Warmest Regards Robert Lee GEOMANCY.NET - Center for Applied Feng Shui Reseach
