Genuine Fengshui Tips

Please remember that fengshui alone cannot change your whole life. Over-reliance of fengshui will cause one to become superstitious and this is a wrong attitude. There are 5 factors affecting your quality of life.

1. Destiny
2. Luck
3. Fengshui
4. Philanthropy
5. Education

Water is ‘qi’ and it is important as it contains wealth. When there is a movement of ‘qi’, there is constant wealth.

Fengshui for every office, house, flat, and building will last for 20 years, i.e. in the year 2004, there will be a change of luck. From 1984 to 2003, it is the age of 7. Those pager and hand phone numbers which end with 7 will bring the owners good luck. Year 2004 to 2023 will be the age of eight.

1. Always sleep with a bed that has plenty of space beneath to allow ‘qi’ to circulate when you are sleeping, so that you do not end up with a backache or simply feeling tired after waking up in the morning.
2. Do not place boxes or anything under the bed. Choose a high bed made of metal or wood.
3. There should not be any TV set in the bedroom. If there is, cover it with a plastic table cloth. This will prevent the static energy from zapping at you when you sleep, thus you will not feel tired after waking up.
4. Do not allow young children to sleep on mattresses that are placed on the floor. This will cause frequent sickness in young children.

5. Always place a few writing tables in any part of your house for your children to study. Do not force them to study at designated places or they may not be able to concentrate.
6. Always sleep with your bed against a flat wall so as to get support from your family members and also to have a good sleep.
7. The ceiling light in the bedroom should not be in the centre of your bed as it gives out heat. This is considered bad for a couple. White light is more acceptable than warm light. Warm light is yellow and it represents fire.
8. Do not live near factories or any electrical building, eg. a power station. Hang a metal wind chime to weaken the "fire" from these buildings.
9. Please be careful as to where you hang your wind chime as wind chime will attract spirits if it is hung near graves or trees.
10. Fish tank cannot be placed anywhere you like, and especially in the west direction. It is not advisable to have a fish tank at all.
11. Do not pluck beautiful flowers as spirits live in them.
12. If you wish to buy a new flat/house, bring along a new born baby, about 4-5 months old. If the baby cries, it means that the fengshui for the flat/house is no good. If the baby smiles, it means OK.
13. Do not buy a house with a swimming pool in the west direction during the period 1984 to 2003. Choose one which faces the East or South West, or, if not, you will lose money.

East – 1984 to 2003 ; South West – 2004 to 2023

14. For private house, place 2 stone lions at each side of the gate/entrance of the house. The stone lions not only give the house a solid ground but can also guard against burglary.
15. When shifting to your new house, the item that you consider the most important should move in first, eg. the Buddha’s statue, money, bed, etc.
16. The main door is the main "mouth" of the house. Do not place shoes outside the door as it will bring the ‘qi’ of the shoes into the house. If you need to buy a shoe rack, buy one with doors.
17. Do not sleep with the toilet door directly opposite your bed. It is very bad for health. If it gets too serious, the person may be admitted to hospital.
18. If you want to know where your "wealth" spot in your house is, observe the children. If they like to play at a particular spot all the time (based on their own intuition) and feel comfortable, it could be where your "wealth" spot is. You can try putting a water fountain at that spot to circulate the good ‘qi’ around the house. If nothing happens after a few weeks or so, it means that you may have not chosen the right "wealth" spot.
19. Do not paint yellow for the house as it can enhance the sickness star, causing your family members to fall sick. Acceptable colors are white, light green and beige.
20. Do not place the wall clock at the top of the doorway. It should not also be facing the main door or bedroom door as it signifies ticking away your life.
21. For most HDB flats, there are usually vertical rectangular holes at the external walls along the corridors outside your house. If your main door is directly facing one of these holes, cover it fully with styrofoam to prevent "sa qi" from hitting your door.
22. For a person who is still single, she/he can activate a romance by putting a stalk of fresh flower in a vase and place it in any part of the house. When the petals fade, change the flower unless you wish to have a sour relationship. Roses should not be used as they have thorns. Sorry, nothing was mentioned for married couples.
23. Do not complain all the time as it creates negative ‘qi’. Do not talk bad things about others if you do not want others to talk bad about you.
24. You should always walk with confidence and dress well. Observe the people around you and you should be able to tell whether they succeed in life or not.
