Sand pit used to neutralize the poison arrow

[moon88]

Dear cecil,
I read somewhere that one can use a container containing sand to neutralize a poison arrow. Is this true. Thanks.

Dear Anon,
The main principle to remember is:
"If one no longer sees the poison arrow(s) it no longer becomes a threat."
Thus, if the container of sand is high enough, between the `offending' poison arrow and the home it is considered effective.
Usually, Feng Shui practititoners do not normally use EARTH is because, this can be risky considering the `Five Yellow' or the inauspicious Flying Star 5 (for misfortune).
One must remember that in a Flying Star Chart, the occurence of 5 is 3 times e.g. it `appears' once for the Mountain Star, one time for the Water Star and one time for the Base Star.
If there are any further inauspicous combinations plus a person adding more `Earth' or sand, it may cumulate to a recipe of enhancing this `Five Yellow' and causing Misfortune.
With this reasoning, you can see why it is always safer not to use EARTH.
Hope the above helps.
Warmest Regards,
Cecil
