My questionis:1) What time of the day shouldI conduct the symbolic movein. I have already haveseveral ideal auspicious datefrom your services. Please e-mail me personally at support@geomancy.net so that I can advise you on a suitable time specific to you. Quote 2) What do I do for thesymbolic move in. For a symbolic move I will list out the usual items. However, it depends on yourself i.e. whether u want to use some or all of the items below:-Prior to the day of the symbolic move:-1. Purchase of 1 packet sugar, 1 packet rice (5 kg) will do and 1 packet of salt.2. Purchase of a pineapple (with flower on it). Pineapple in Hokkien means " Ong " or prosper.3. Purchase 1 " Huat Quay ". For prosperity.4. Optional: purchase of a charcoal stove and charcoal (wrapped in red paper). The charcoal represents good.5. On the day of the symbolic move:-5.1 Open the main entrance door and roll in the pineapple into the middle of the house.5.2 Optional: Either - burn the coal red hot and bring this with a tong to the kitchen stove to heat it red hot.Or symbolically bring in the stove with the charcoal wrapped in red paper. Traditionally, the stove is heated with the coal at the centre-point of the house.6. Once you come into the house, bring in all the items e.g. packet of salt, sugar and rice.7. Turn on all the lights in the house.8. If one is not burning coal at the stove. Then one should boil water to `warm the kitchen'.9. If one is staying at the house, one can turn off all the lights except the balcony light. Leave it on for the night.Warmest Regards,Cecil Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
