Entering new house for first time

[myfs_94522]

Hi Cecil,
Like to ask some questions regarding the subject event:
1) Is it necessary to choose an auspicious date to enter my new house for the first time?
2) Will something bad happen if I didn't check whether the date is auspicious when entering my new house?
3) Do I only need to consider my spouse & my birth dates (i.e. house owner) when choosing an auspicious date? Or do I also have to consider the birth dates of other people accompanying us to enter our new house for the first time?
Thanks!

Look at it this way - Many people do not have the `previlege' of choosing an auspicious date.
Let's put it this way: some choose dates is to `play-it-safe'. It should be considered as `nice to have' rather than a must.

As mentioned, some people like to `play-it-safe', that's all.
I can draw a parallel, to some young couples; looking for Feng Shui advise. They want or hope to engage a Feng Shui practitioner so that, they want to try to see if they can start life or try to start their life or hope to start their life with a `clean state'.
In my opinion, therefore, as I had mentioned earlier, selecting good dates is NICE TO HAVE. And not a necessity.
The test here is that: What happened to many people who did not select their dates?
I am here to give an objective advise even if as a practitioner, we like to have more business. But I feel that money is not everything. And thus, will not cheapen ourselves to `incite' fear that getting an auspicous dates is a must. Far from this.

(i.e. house owner) when

Yes, again I like to emphasie that it is NO HARM to consider your spouse birth date.
Often, if one wants to consider auspicious dates, it is good to consider both partners. Only if both partner's date clash; then often, the man (MALE) takes precidence.
If the date is Very inauspicious or inauspicious to the wife, then, on the day of collecting the key, the family may consider her `staying' away or stay outside of the unit until the MALE, had taken over the house keys.
For other family members, this is less important since they are not the breadwinner.
For Chinese weddings, we (practitioners) often also check whether if the date is auspicious or not for the parents. Here, if more parties are involved, there will always be dates that cannot suit everyone.
It is ridiculous just to stay away from the wedding! If say, the day does not suit the bridegroom or bride's mum. Here, we will try to check out the auspicious colours for the mum and advise her to wear colours suitable for her.
Warmest Regards,
Cecil
