myfs_156098 Posted November 11, 2012 Share Posted November 11, 2012 Hi Cecil,I was reading through the postings regarding aquarium placement and I am interested to know how to apply those on my case. I am a weak Fire Rat. We have a small aquarium at home. Based on the Flying Star period 7, the #8 is placed on the NW direction, however based on the eight aspirations The water is on the north sector. While the reason we have the aquarium is to improve wealth. What is the correct way to apply the 2? Should we put it on the SW which is my prosperity sector or should we put it on the SE because that's the sector for wood (need to ehance this based on my weak fire) although that's one of my worst sectors?I am looking forward to hear from you.

Staff Cecil Lee Posted November 12, 2012 Staff Share Posted November 12, 2012 These are some considerations:1. You are moving towards the right direction (in your analysis).2. In the past and even today, a simpleton geomancer would determine that a person is say a weak wood person. 2.1 And then require their client(s) to feature more wood in the entire house.3. Since 1980's with the opening up and relevation of Feng Shui thru the use of both Shapes and Forms and especially an appreciation of the Compass School: Eight House and Flying Stars.4. Nowadays, many now know that even if they are say a weak fire person like yourself;4.1. Each human being has a birth chart. And can be analysed thru Ba Zi.4.2. Every home also has it's own birth chart. Thus this is why you have determined that home to belong to Period 7.5. Thus placing a water feature at one's home can now be determined by what are the stars at a specific sector.5.1. For example, a sector with the current prosperity Water star #8 should be the correction location for a water feature provided; this is not the toilet, a bedroom or somewhere inconvenient or odd for a water position.6. Shapes and Forms Feng Shui:6.1. Ming Tang (Bright Hall) and clear space to "accumulate" and allow good qi to both collect and come into a home.6.2. Here, 70 percent of the time, even if one's home or building frontage does not have water stars; but if one were to place a water feature at the frontage; often, there is no issue, here.6.3. The rationale is because, when we place a water postion, nothing can be built on-top of this water feature, thus allowing CLEAR SPACE. 6.4. Based on Shapes and Forms: CLEAR SPACE is one of the secret weapons. As clear space can allow a BRIGHT HALL effect. 6.5. While especially in the 1970's; in Singapore and with a reasonably sized landed property garden, Mango and Rambutan trees were popular. And once these trees esp. Mango trees reach 8 or more years old, they cast a large shadow below the ground. 6.5.1. Thus creating a dim and no longer BRIGHT HALL effect.7. Placing a water feature or a fish tank and applying Flying Star Feng Shui:7.1. From a practical point of Feng Shui; under the 20 YEAR Flying Star Feng Shui; especially if the water star #8 is found at the frontage or alternatively SW is at the frontage; having a water feature at the frontage e.g. at say the living room balcony is fine or OK.7.1.1. Here, one don't really need to look at the annual Flying Stars to see where this water feature e.g. fountain can be shifted, year to year. In fact, how to? Often the water feature or fountain is pretty huge and only meant for e.g. the living room balcony!7.2 Again, placing a water feature at the living room balcony is (I suspect) akin to Para 6.2, above.8. If the annual star #8 happens to fall at one's living room balcony or a reasonble location that can "accept" a water feature, then as you had mentioned, we can then place a water position for that YEAR.8.1. As I had mentioned earlier, often a reasonable sized water feature is pretty heavy and one can't simply place it on a set of wheels and start rolling it around our house!8.2. Please note that the more effective water feature is defintely not one of those small table-top water feature. Frankly, such water features are simply? Useless. And furthermore need to constantly add water to it. As it is small and water easily evaporates from it. WHy become a slave to such a water feature, I wonder?

Staff Cecil Lee Posted November 12, 2012 Staff Share Posted November 12, 2012 From a Feng Shui point of view:Eight Aspirations is static. And in the past, and even under the Lin Yun era of Black Hat (Tantric) sect; was very popular. Where you had mentioned North = Water etc...But the Eight Aspirations is a "fixed" model and does not consider TIME DIMENSION as compared to the timely stars of the Flying Star Feng Shui.In the 1970'sespecially1980's: a hiredgeomancer who proclaims that one needs a water position at North would not be questioned. But today, a client who is reasonably versed in basic Feng Shui would seriously question such a judgement or rather no brainer geomancer!
