My 2 cent:

The real feng shui really affects how ppl think like how feng shui for HK...

Nowadays, every tom d*** and harry say they know feng shui.. feng shui expert must have that 3rd eye ability (chinese ancient belief) and the supernatural understanding.. those are the real expert..

Is there a need for fung shui if one possess the third eye? If the can see the "dirty" elements they dont need feng shui.

Actually, I have a family Feng Shui master. He has 3rd and 4th eye too, one is infront another is at the back of his head. He can see both evil spirits and how the flow of the earth and how things will happen in future.

He has good knowledge in I-Ching, and he uses it and his powers, to assist those who seek for his help. He is of course the most wise, and true master in this art. He even has a magical invisible unicorn which he calls to his aid, when the evil spirits are too strong. His magical unicorn brings luck to the houses which the master bless.

My family have shifted some stuff in the house, followed his rice and taufu diet, and practiced some Taiqi that he taught us. Because of that, I am so lucky as to have a job, and my health, unlike many other ppl.

The only problem is I have been having some headaches lately and the master says it's because of some people on the net whose Energy is interfering with mine.

It did not take me a day to understand 三字经，三十六计，或 孙子兵法. I ask again if you could quote how wushu was inspire by the Book of Changes. It does not matter if I take 2 days or 2 years to understand it. If you dont want to share your knowledge why do you bother posting.

What makes you think that YOUR WAY is RIGHT and GOOGLE is WRONG?

I only know Feng Shui got Flying stars to count with the nine boxes lol. I don't believe in Lilian Too's thing in buying expensive stuff to nullify certain aspects in the house when you can use a similar item that deals the same effect.

With anything in this world it's really simple. Either you're shown

How it works.
or
That it works.

otherwise how would any sane person believe it?

People all know this concept and automatically apply it in their daily lives, until it touches on their personal belief: Be it religion, feng shui, get rich quick schemes, gambling or any other baseless believes.

"It cannot be proven by modern methods, so I can't show you how or that it works." That just doesn't cut it.
If that were the case, I'd tell you that I can grow your money. Don't ask me how, you won't understand it even if I told you, just give it to me, and I'll give you what you've made when it comes.

Added on July 30, 2010, 9:38 amYou might ask, so what's wrong with believing in Feng Shui if it doesn't work?

- Neighbourhood aunties tell you that you can't do this, you can't do that.
It's your off day, but you can't move houses, you'll have to wait for an auspicious day.

- Instead of designing your home in a way that you feel comfortable with, you are required to make it in a way that you feel uneasy with, ironically for the purpose of improving your well being.

- It is an unnecessary added fear factor. You already have to fend of criminals, conman, and natural disasters in your daily lives, now you'll have to also worry about unseen forces which you don't even know whether it's real.

- You waste time & money, to invest in counter measures

- Rules become confusing, and we become the laughing stock of foreigners. Floor 3B? seriously?

- Wasted effort- some perfectly good houses are unable to be sold, because nobody dares to buy it. So you don't care about Feng Shui, but when you buy, you'll still need to consider whether you're able to sell it off in future, alas you cannot.

- Wasted man power- brilliant minds, could spend their effort on other things like doctors, teachers, or farmers, instead they are wasting their time as Feng Shui Consultants and Feng Shui Accessories businessmen.

- A safe haven for Con men to reside in. It's difficult to pretend to be a doctor because what you do can be scrutinized by the rest of the medical community. If you're a self proclaimed Feng Shui expert, it's your word against theirs.

Added on July 30, 2010, 9:53 amWhat people should really worry about is the actual and realistic issues of the property.

Instead of following strange vague rules. You should instead ask yourselves, if I were to live here for the next few years, what will effect me?

Instead of worrying about, the nearby graveyard, you should be concerned about, the crime rate of that area (the real ghost. lol).

How far is the house from food source, protection, family, work, transport.

If you do not consider this, no matter how big your pak koa is, or what mountain is behind your house, you're life will not be as smooth as you'd like.

Nicely put. I really hate this because it affects other people. That is why people who do not believe need to fight for their rights in this world full of believers. The ironic thing is the majority of them are doing it because it was forced on them through their growing up environment and influences. Then when you ask them why they believe, they will say "dunno" cause said so by elders and "no harm" doing it. Now THAT is ignorant.

Lilian Too is damn con artist...only good for conning Gwei Loh....

Frankly, i don't believe in Feng Shui, but some of it are actually pratical (like for ex: House facing T junctions no good...of courselar, probability of cars banging into ur house much higher!!!) while some are non-sense.

I believe in Karma. You can use Feng Shui yadda all you want, maybe you can avoid some bad karma for time being, but eventually your Karma meter will runs up and when it's time for payback, it's payback.

Feng shui is just the flow of energy, it is the harmonization between man and nature.

Fengsui is manipulation of the natural forces to work in your favour.
1. Fire
2. Water
3. Air
4. Earth

the 4 great essentials.

the four fundamental element idea have been proven wrong since the creation of chemistry.

we know now these are the real element



i wonder why you are refering to the four element of the greek and not the five element of chinese tradition?

chinese got 5?

which is the extra one?

On top of the periodic table, the 4 elementary forces of nature is now definitively defined by
1. Electromagnetic force
2. Gravitational force
3. Weak Nuclear force
4. Strong nuclear force


Sure there are now more elaborate combination and permutation of those forces in attempt to unify them all. But to even think that traditional natural forces, be it Chinese or Greek, still has any ground brings a very large sigh.

Why care about feng shui when you can just make yourself rich and happy? By the time you're rich and powerful, who needs feng shui?

anyone know the procedure of what should do and what shouldnt when moving into a new house?

should move only in auspicious hour of the day. Make sure non of the animal signs of the people staying in the new house are conflicted. Do space clearing before moving in. Hang red cloth on the door. Move in must boil water from the kitchen and drink to signify moving in. Better if can cook and have dinner also to signify moving in. Turn on all the lights and fans. Create lots of YANG energy. To let the HOUSE know the OWNER is moving in. Some cosmic divine intervention receiver located in everywhere and nowhere will pickup this signal and patch you accordingly.

Or scrap all the above and just bloody move in.

Your choice depending you believe or not. Most people will do the former because "nothing to lose" and for the peace of mind.

Feng Shui is actually playing around with the law of the world or nature, everyone has to play by their rules, you can't change the rules, but you can play around it. That's where feng shui comes in.

ps. Lilian Too crap is bullshit

May i know what is the law of the world? And what about playing with it? If it is LAW then it is something that can be proven. Can you prove fengshui works?
