House Period

[Audrey]

Hi, Cecil/Robert, I have two questions:
1)My house was originally built in 1971 (period 6) and had shingles replaced in 1998 (period 7) with no roof structure changed. I'm not sure if you're familiar with this, but in northern U.S., due to harsh weather, these shingles need to be changed every 20-25yrs. I don't think when this was done the wood-cover under the shingles were lifted so I don't think stars would be able to shine through. My flying star report was run via period 6, because at the time, my understanding was that unless you change the roof structure, changing shingles didn't count. Now that I read through more and more forum discussion on this, I'm not sure if this thinking is correct. Should I have my house FS report re-run as period 7 in this case?
2) Also, my house faces W1 (255degree) so either period 6 or 7, I will have a combo of 10 situation. According to one Flying Star book, I can activate the goodness of this lucky combo by having a water fountain on the back of the house or some other water structure (building a pool is not feasible for us). I understand that this goes against the shape and form school (mountain backing and water in front of house is good). The landscape around our house is such that there is a hill behind us and I thought that it was good; but it looks like it doesn't go well with Flying Star theory. Your thoughts please. If you agree with having a fountain on back, then how far back should it be placed?
Thank you for all your help!

Dear Anon,
1. Yes, based on your description, it would seem that your house has changed to Period 7. Especially, if the shingles were removed, EXPOSING the "skin of the house below".
2. This would be different, if there is a deliberate attempt to remove the shingles, but an entire water/light proof cover is over the roof area. And, no direct sunlight gets to the immediate floor. If so, then, it should be considered as a Period 6 home.
3. Thus, it is best to generate a new report. If yours is a paid report, please privately email to: support@geomancy.net to request a complimentary paid report. Since, this is a geninue misunderstanding.

If you have a rough sketch, it would be great!
Usually, under Shapes and Forms School, it would not be ideal to have especially a front door with a hill behind it.
For a water position, it would depend on the type of stars found at the back. For example, if there is a double #8 at the back, then, a water position in the form of a water fall is ideal. But if there is only a water star #8, then, a flat water position, is preferable.
Sometimes, what looks like the frontage (road leading to the home / street road) may seem to look like it; but on other instances, if one has a living room, patio, at the back of the home, this could instead be the front! of the home (even if at a distance, there is a hill) etc...
Therefore, I personally like to caution, just simply describing a home, in sentences. (You know, what I mean)
Warmest Regards,
Cecil

Hi, Cecil, thanks so much for your prompt response! For clarification, our shingles were replaced without things underneath exposed, so maybe in this instant keeping the period 6 is correct. However, in 2000, we also remodeled kitchen and bathroom quite extensively. Stove were moved to a better Feng Shui location (it was located in the N); a wall was knocked down, water pipes were altered so that we could bring washer and dryer from basement to first floor. Again, my thinking at the time was centering around roof line, if we didn't change roof line, period wouldn't change. But now, I'm not so sure. What do you think?
As far as the hill on back. We really do have the facing of the house to W1 (255), as front door and garage door are both in front. The back does not have living room (living room faces front), it does however have a porch but this porch doesn't get used often. I'm afraid I don't have a new sketch of the house to attach (will work on it). When you said star#8, which sector star did you mean? Because we're facing W1, the three sitting sectors on the back of the house are NE, E, and SE.
I ordered the reports few years ago and didn't keep up with FS for a while. I thank you for your offer to run a complimentary report under period 7, but I think my account may likely have been expired.
