Is There A Cure For The Toilet Location Problem?

[myfs_88310]

Dear Master Cecil:
Just read your comments on the inauspicious toilet locations in a house.
I quickly reviewed the layout plans of all models in the housing development in which I live. In this housing subdivision, every house is a two stories dwelling plus a basement and a car garage. All the floor plans show that there is a half bath (a bathroom without bath tub/shower) on the first floor, and this half bath falls in the center grid (if I divide the housing area into 9 equal grids) for every housing model.
Because the center grid is much bigger than the area of the bathroom, the toilet bowl (and the bathroom) does not happen to be at the "center point" (I mean the crossing point of two diagonal lines drawn from the four corners of the housing area) for all houses.
I wonder if there is cure for this situation. Because there are at least 3 other bathrooms than "this half bath on the first floor" in every house, should we seal this toilet bowl? Or seal the door of this half bathroom? Or hang a Ba Gua in this half bathroom? Or ...... can be corrected by certain method?
Please help. Thanks in advance.
Regards,
Anon

Dear Anon,
1. From past experience, usually if the toilet is exactly at the centrepoint, this is already one handicap of the home.
2. From what you had described; the toilet does not seem to be located at the centrepoint. Which seems promisingly OK.
3. However, usually it takes two or more major handicaps in the house to bring down the Feng Shui of a house. Often, these are finance/career related problems and subsequently cumulate to other problems e.g. heath, marriage etc...
4. I always emphasise that the `saving' factor is the external shapes and forms of the house and for the interior: good shapes and forms.
5. Often, simple things like qi flowing from the main entrance directly out in a straight line is a leak. So is a toilet next to the main door. And a combination of these factors will bring down the Feng Shui especially when one stays in this house for more than 1 year. And will continously become worse-off.
Warmest Regards,
Cecil
