Dear Anon, In the traditional practice, Five Element has been tagged to only CHINESE CHARACTERS. Thus it has been officially used for Chinese names only. However, in recent years, some modern Feng Shui Practitioner has tried to employ these techniques in English Names. I believe I had also come across reading about this. And even some had converted some English names with Five Elements subsitutes. Well, it is difficult to comment on something which has not be tried or tested or has any traditional implementation techniques. So it may or may not work. But so long as whoever came up with this theory has sufficient understanding of the Five Element and applies them properly. Yes, it is possible to do so. Only question you want to ask now is how true or accurate is it for the time being? No one really can say as it is not one of the traditional tried and tested formulas. Warmest Regards Robert Lee

Dear Carrie, You can get a free reading of the birth element (eg. water, wood person) from the Daily forecast chart located at http://www.geomancy.net. This report is absolutely free. There is also a free pillars and five element at the http://geomancy-online.com. If you want more details or find out if the elements are weak or strong, then there is either a full Pillars of Destin Standard or Premium report or a simple "What's your personal Feng Shui element?" report. Hope that helps.

Dear Carrie, Apologise for the delay. Found this message unanswered while going through the various topics. Please read below:- Metal will help to control your strong Earth and produce Water which is your wealth. Thus benefitting more than using Wood Cure. Therefore, if you are say a Strong Earth and tends to say travel West frequently or have important things to do in the West, you will enjoy added benenfit of good luck. Hope that helps to answer your queries. Warmest Regards Robert Lee

Dear Anon, I suggest you wait until it pasts 5 Feb 2000 where the official Lunar New Year for year 2000 starts as the current Chinese Lunar Year is still 1999. Warmest Regards Robert Lee

Dear Anon, There are many debates over this issue. It is stated that usually the reigning period will control the stars, this means that star 5 in period 5 would be good. However, in some debate, it is stated that for period 5 which is a center Gua or not one of the eight directions it should be replaced by another trigram of from one of the official Eight Trigrams. In another debate, a proposed solution by using the I-Ching was recommended. So far as you can tell this is all yet to be proven so well, we have to take the traditional, that the period 5 should be represented by one of the Eight Trigram rather than 5 itself. Anyway, we will not encounter that for a long time to come so do not really need to worry so much as yet. Warmest Regards Robert Lee

Dear Jojo, You should not activate or solve the #5 simply because it falls in that sector by using a wind chime. You have to look at the overall interaction of the #5 in relation to the 20-year sector. Usually, if you have cured or solve any problems with the 20-year itself, it should be quite safe for you, as they additional yearly star should not cause that much of a problem. However, yearly star should still be look at. For monthly stars, it is even less important, unless you always have the time and ability to keep track of the stars changing every month. But personally it is a little too over zealous to keep making changes each month. Usually, you will fix the 20-year and maybe the yearly star and just let each day past as per normal. As the cures for the 20-year and yearly are more lasting and have more impact. Unless of course it is about say triple 5 or triple 2 etc. Warmest Regards Robert Lee

Dear Tam, Please read below:- Most important is to cure problem areas, and leave the rest as it is so as not to complicate the matters. In Feng Shui, when you try to solve or cure a minor problem, it is as good as trying to enhance a good sector. When all the major problems are solved, you will already enhance your good influences. Hope that helps. Warmest Regards Robert Lee

Dear Kean, Please read below:- For the Strong Earth person, he will benefit from the Strong Water person, as Water represents his wealth. In addition, the Strong Water, will help to control the Fire preventing the further growth of Earth for the Strong Earth person. The Strong Water person will benefit from the Strong Earth person in that Earth destroys Water thus, controlling the strong Water. Generally, basing on that the compatibility seems to be pretty good. As for whether it will result in a good careers, will have to depend on several other factors such as the Feng Shui of the Office, the type of business etc, and what period in their personal life do they want to venture into the business. As many of the rest of the details are unknown or uncertain, I can say for sure. But in the context of the two partnership, both will be able to benefit from each other's strength's and weakness. Also, whether it is good or bad also depends on the whether the element is a favourable or unfavourable element to that person. In addition, it also depends on what it is represented by. Hope that helps. Warmest Regards Robert Lee

Dear Anon, Please read below:- A simple answer is NO. Reason:- Pillars of Destiny can only chart out a person's likely destiny due to changes in the heavenly influence for any given person. However, it cannot chart out the experiences a person will encounter. What experiences? - Education Level of a person - Friends & Family who help to shape & influence a person. - Experiences he encounters in different phases of his life. - & lots more. These often changes a person's life. What a Pillars can do however, is to provide you with some insights as to what is expected in your life. Knowing when it is good and bad, you can often revert or make use of the knowledge to your advantage. Say for example, if a 10-year is extremely good for you, well this means that you are likely to enjoy a good return if you say venture into business. On the other hand, if a period is bad for you, then what you should do is try to avoid or reduce and be more cautious doing anything this period. Thus, since there is a personal (human factor), nothing can every be fixed or constant. So usually no twins will be the same. Warmest Regards Robert Lee

Dear Anon, 7-9-2 Is not very good combination simply because the Strong Earth (2) is not being controlled very well by weak Metal (7) and instead the influence is enhanced by the weak Fire (9). Thus creating a strong Star 2 (Sickness) In addition 7-2 come together signifying Disaster. The solution is to control the Star 2. Which is by using metal. The best metal cure so far is to use 6 metal coins tied with a Red String. Hang in at the door in that sector. This should help to control the strong Earth (2). However, you should consider whether they are any other problems before you decide to activate this cure. This is usually the recommended solution, if that is the only problem. Hope that helps. Warmest Regards Robert Lee

Dear Anon, Please also remember that for any element say Wood, there is a weak or a strong wood, similarly for a Metal there is a weak or strong metal. Certain combinations can be extremely good say if:- The Wood is a Strong wood, then the girlfriend is a Strong Metal or even a weak Metal, as it helps to control the overly strong wood. This does not mean that the guy will be controlled by the girl friend. Also, there are many other factors involved in this type of relationship, the person's characertistics. I mean if a the guy tends to be indecisive etc, while the girl friend is more decisive or more dominant, then it is likely that the girlfriend would be in more control. In addition, just like Kean has mentioned, how the relationship goes has also depending on the guys 4 pillars in relation to the house of Conception (or also called house of spouse). There is a condition that if the elements in the House of Spouse is the controlling element of the Birth element, it is likely that he is controlled by the wife. So there are several factors around. Anyway hope that helps. Warmest Regards Robert Lee

Dear Users, Thank you all for being patient while our site is undergoing a major revamp. As you can tell, many parts of the sites has been given a revamp with many new features to come. However, as the site is very large it will take us some time as we revamp each section of the various sites. The following changes have been made or added to the our site in the past few days. 1. Geomancy.Net main page has been greatly simplified so that it is less confusing while giving you all the necessary links to all parts of the site. In addition, the much awaited Daily Forecast has been added to the main page, providing all users with Feng Shui influence every day and every hour. 2. My Adviser, has been given a new look and colour scheme (blue) to match the "Water" element it has been given for the login page. 3. The login pages has been optimised so that you can type in the text and press enter, which automatically focus to the a seperate LOGIN window so that you can enjoy the full frame access of the Forum, Reports and etc. The LOGIN pages will no longer to tagged with other frames resulting in lesser viewing spaces. 4. Daily Forecast which many users had enjoyed in the past has been enhanced and updated with v1.00. It now contains a quick personal element check report, that uses the Pillars of Destiny report to determine your element. It serves as a quick reference for new users who are unaware of whether they are a water person or wood person etc. It does not contain the full details but it will enable users to quickly determine the birth elements. Hope that you enjoy the following changes. More changes are being worked at while we upgrade out site to a larger and faster site. Thank all users for their patients and continued support. Wishing all users the very best for year 2000! Warmest Regards Robert Lee

Dear Fraser, I am not sure why you cannot [TAB]. That should be no problem at all. As for the Enter suggestion, I have made the following changes to all login pages:- 1. It will auto focus on the Username as soon as the page is loaded. 2. After entering your username and password all you need to do is press enter. 3. After you click on the login, the window will auto focus to the target window. So that if you happen to have the LOGIN window open either by the My Adviser, My FengShui or My Mail, it will bring that window to the top. Hope that these minor enhancement will make it more enjoyable to login to the site:) Warmest Regards Robert Lee

Dear Anon, Thank you for your feedback. Glad you enjoy it. It took us several revision to figure out what site design is best suited for us. As well as a new look for our up and coming changes to the site. I think after so long we are quite fixed and satisfied with this new layout:) Though there are still some parts which I am still working at the same time transfering to the new server. Warmest Regards Robert Lee

Dear Anon, The year 2000 chart is updated automatically when you generate the 20-year chart as it takes the current year. Warmest Regards Robert Lee

Dear Users, After several days of configurations and testing, we have deployed the new Forum for you to make use of. Feel free to make full use of it. As there are sufficient bandwidth for all users to enjoy! --------------------------------------------- If you have subscribed to the Mailing list If you need to reply to any earlier messages before 30 December 1999; sent to you through the mailing list, you have to change the REPLY to e-mail address from @forum.geomancy.net to @web1140.3dmail.com. As the forum.geomancy.net is still running to host the My FengShui, I cannot create an alias name of forum.geomancy.net to forward to the new web1140.3dmail.com. So you will have to bear with it for a short while. --------------------------------------------- Warmest Regards Robert Lee

Dear Anon, I believe you are using an older version of the browser that does not support DHTML classes / style sheets which is a growing industry standard for all web browsers. I have added some changes to all the pages so that users without the DHTML can still be able to view the pages. However, you will be able to enjoy the site more with the newest version of Netscape or Internet Explorer. The new site was designed in mind to support Internet Explorer 4 and Netscape 4 and above. Due to the changing standard and growing users of the newer version of browsers, we will not be putting too much effort to support the older browser, except for this addition which alters the background and foregound colors so that they remain visible to all version of the browsers that do not support the style sheets or DHTML. This should be able to solve the problem for all users using older versions of the browser. We would advise all users upgrade their browsers if they are still using older versions of the browser, if that is possible. This is because, many sites will mainly focus on DHTML type of design which makes the entire site look the same and takes advantage of your browsers dynamic page updating which reduces the overall size (by elimating duplication of common codes) used in the webpages. Thus, resulting in faster web surfing. Warmest Regards Robert Lee

Dear Users, We have recently implemented a revised look for geomancy.net with user friendly navigation links. You should be able to get to all the key pages of this site very much easier than before. Also, it looks much better with the updated site. As some servers cache the older pages of this site, especially for those using IE 5, you may need to reload the page to refresh your browser. We have prepared the site for an up and coming shift to a LARGER site which we will be ensuring that there are as little disruption as possible. Meanwhile, here is what's new in Geomancy.Net:- 1.

Due to this, from now to 15 Jan 2000, you get to still enjoy the US$1 additional reports together with the special offer off the base price of the reports. Giving the new Millennium a BIG WELCOME! Note: US$1 per additional report is a ONE TIME millennium special which will not be available after 15 Jan 2000, but the c-Fest will still be available until 31 Feb 2000. All users who purchase during this time get to participate in the c-Fest luck draw, which is filled with many exciting prizes. Items that you should not missed:- a. c-Fest Special Package.

From now to 15 Jan 2000, this book is offered at a PROMOTIONAL LAUNCH + c-FEST PROMOTIONS of only US$19 instead of the Usual price of US$48. 2.

Hope you enjoy the various changes made to the site:) Wishing all users the very BEST in the NEW MILLENNIUM:) Warmest Regards Robert & Cecil Lee

Dear Anon, The site should be able to be viewed by older browser, as there isn't any special codes specific to any browsers. So far from Netscape and IE both browser should be ok. The only thing I like to add is that we have been updating the site in the past few days. And since our site is highly visited, many ISPs proxy has probably a CACHED version of the site. So you may be viewing a CACHED version of the site, so you may have to click on your browsers REFRESH to reload the site without using the cached version. That should help as we still have lots of visitors to our site, so far no one has yet to provide any feedback about this problem. If it still does not help, please let me know what browser and version are you using (eg. IE 3, Netscape 3) Warmest Regards Robert Lee

Dear Users, As you can tell from the recent changes in the site, we are preparing for many exciting changes to the entire Geomancy.Net.

Thus, please be patient while we take this holiday season to upgrade our site for your benefit! Due to many technical complications involved, we will be busy focusing on making this upgrade as seemless as possible:) So we would like to apologise if our response time to your various queries is a little delayed during this period. Thank you for all your valuable feedback and encouragement. We take all feedback seriously! Warmest Regards Robert Lee

Dear Users, As you can tell from your login, the site has been re designed. This includes the new Geomancy Logo and the site is now designed so that it caters to 800x600 browsers. Which is the current trend and thus allowing more details and better placement. In future, every page will have a description and info on the left or right to guide you through the page. In addition, due to the complexity of this site, we do have many services and features which we have understand from users feedback that is may be too complex in the past to access. Thus, we have analysed our site and updated several of the key pages of our site. Here are some examples. Others pages will also be updated when necessary. A. Search Page will give you options to search the entire website resources found on our published website. B. It will link users to this Forum which is an extension of Feng Shui resources to do a search from our forum. As for the login page. We have combined all the login into this Member Access page. Which you can gain access to the three member application from a single page. A. My Feng Shui account. B. My Adviser account. C. My Mail (which is an optional web e-mail) In addition, we will no longer display each component of the Books, Course, Reports since it has been allocated to My Feng Shui. Thus, you will find it easier to access the site. As we will be allocating a link to the various related resources from the 4 main site:- A. My Resources B. My FengShui C. My Adviser D. My Services Hope that you find the site easier to navigate with this new design. Thank you once again for all your valuable feedback. We are always listening to your feedback so that the site can be improved:) Warmest Regards Robert Lee

Dear Anon, A sample of the uncompleted Home Audit Main report which is currently available will look like the follow:- http://www.geomancy.net/services/samples/familyaudit/mainreport.htm I stress that it is still uncompleted because I have yet to launch the various addon modules. Plus, some components which I have not included to the main report as I have yet to refine the description or analysis. Such as Room to Stars analysis etc. Also, I have simply selected random rooms and options just for your viewing sample. However, in any case, this report will at a single glance tell you in detailed the analysis of each sector the room, and what good stars to activate or what type of cures to employ. In addition, it tells you how suitable the people staying in that room is. When completed it will be linked to many modules which will provided a complete Feng Shui analysis using all the necessary Feng Shui theories possible. But for now, these reports will only be available to Special and Free Audit home users. As it is suffcient for their needs at the moment. Warmest Regards Robert Lee

Dear Users, We are pleased to inform you that we have managed to keep the excess bandwidth problem in check. This problem have been causing us some problems for the past 6 months. During this time, many users who have problems have written in to ask us for assistance with Feng Shui. However, without some of the tools, it was difficult to help those users. In the light of the above, we have decided to enable all users to gain access to 1 free limited access for the first profile only. In addition to that, all users will gain 2 free limited Auspicious Date which analysis 5 days in a month for the first two profiles. As promised to all users, if we do not need to pay extra bandwidth costs to our ISPs we will provide whatever we can for all users to enjoy! However, for the time being we have to limit this so that it does not pose a problem when the usage increases. Meanwhile, we are working on some permanent solution to get around this tacky problem so that you can enjoy lots more from our site without extra penalty from the ISPs! Once this is successful, you will see lots more changes and personalisation to this site! In addition, we will be making full use of this year end holiday season to make more new enhancements, such as more computerised modules, books and courses so that you will be able to enjoy them by the next millennium! So we would like to thank all users for your constant support and encouragement! Warmest Regards Robert Lee

Dear Fraser, Apologise, before I can comment further on it, appreciate if you can provide further clarification to the extension of the house. Is the extension upwards, or does it also consist of the extending the side of the house? And you mentioned they are separate, which I am guessing means that there are two buildings and not one building? Apologise, but I am unable to mentally visualise what you meant. Thus, unable to comment further. Warmest Regards Robert Lee

Dear Carrie, Please read below:- So in your case, it can be said that your door is a North door, which means a North house. Then, all you need to do is divide the house into an 8 pie of (45 degree angle) each to assess your home with the Eight House Theory. If you have the time, you can view the compass method at http://www.geomancy.net/fs/cecilcompass.htm Hope that helps. Warmest Regards Robert Lee
