Dear Anon,
Our human feelings or sixth sense are "powerful tools".
For certain situations, we should rely on the Flying Star e.g. to determine where the very inauspicious stars especially the 2 and 5 are and to locate auspicious and inasupicious locations. Plus to see if one can activate the mountain and water stars.
Another equally powerful theory called Ba Zhi Feng Shui seeks to examine the house and `triangulate' positions to activate e.g. a water position so that this `triangle' is fully enhanced. Robert is working on this and as mentioned by him, it is best to wait for it to be ready.
We appreciate that everyone waits for this to be completed and not ask questions first so that he can concentrate on it.
As I mentioned earlier, unlike some of the users here who have read many messages and are familar with quite a diverse aspect of Feng Shui and Chinese beliefs.
Many people, for example in Singapore have actually consulted FS practioners who provided them a `one time' with advise. This is a realistic situation.
Since these people do not know Flying Star, after the consulation (which is essentially to look at the `health' of the house) later on, cannot always depend on advise on the Flying Star.
Therefore, it is good to use your personal feelings to go about the placement of fresh flowers.
Ideally, they could be used in the living room or dining room and even toliets (to liven it). Where possible best to avoid placing them in the bedroom. For some of us who are used to it, can continue to do so. There is really no hard and fast rule in the use of the different types of flowers. This is to make it easier for us to live or enjoy our surroundings.
Our lives are relatively short and why do we always need to be constrainted by having to follow so many sets of rules.
However, do take note that Flowers can be classified under the various elements based on:
a. their colour
b. their shape
Again, flowers are considered secondary, if one believes that it gives you `confidence' to approach life e.g. wearing one on the blouse etc.. carry on.. by chosing your favourite colour.
We can apply the 33.3 percent rule that if we are wearing a rose for example, it will have minimal or no impact on the individual. Contrast this with wearing a dress that covers our top part of our body.
Warmest Regards
Cecil

Further to my earlier reply:
It is `acceptable' for flowers to be placed in the bedroom especially for those who are `recuperating' from an illness.
This is inline with the common practise of giving flowers to those who are staying in a hospital bed especially after an operation.
Hospitals are `more yin' environment especially the hospital bedrooms. Introducing some `Yang' into the rooms such as flowers will certainly brighten it. This can be introduced to a bedroom especially for those who are recovering e.g. from an operation or illness.
This is more a common practise rather than `shoulder' it on Feng Shui.
Warmest Regards,
Cecil
