1. In my opinion, most of us don't feel comfortable with pests coming into our homes.. especially since they are suddenly attracted to your home.


2. A few months ago, a client who went to my one of my talks, call me to her home to do a Feng Shui. She was equally concerned as her home is always "plagued" with cochroaches! And she asked, why?


3. Her situation certainly would be different from yours, as her apartment is right above a typical Chinese coffee-shop. And she mentioned cockroaches are more prevalent in the day and afternoon.


4. Here, what I believed was that, during day-time when the coffee shop is operating, it can be very warm, uncomfortable (heat) from cooking vessels, stoves and human traffic. Naturally, the cockroaches took refuge in a cooler, quieter envirnoment, such as one floor, above. And in the evening, they would venture, downstairs for a bite or two!


5. Sorry for the distraction! Of course, having cockroaches and crickets don't seem to go well with good qi or Feng Shui. At the same time, you certainly woudn't have a good feel about your own home (Human luck) factor.


6. Maybe this is just one time... if worse, call the pest control people or buy those cockroach "sweet poisons" that may wipe out their family and relatives... when they return to their nests.

Bedhead behind is toilethttps://www.geomancy.net/forums/topic/10040-bedhead-behind-is-toilet/Under symbolism in Feng Shui, if possible try to avoid a bed-head feature wall that seems to "split" the bed in the middle.
In the photos, for example, one can see the dark brown feature wall with a VERTICAL line that looks like that cuts directly into the "centre" of the bed....

This Singapore Airlines plane seats does not have a ROW 13.https://www.geomancy.net/forums/topic/11518-this-singapore-airlines-plane-seats-does-not-have-a-row-13/
Numerous Chinese individuals remain indifferent towards the number 13. However, there are those among the Chinese population who harbor a strong aversion towards the number 4, as well as its multiples such as 44 or 444.

Nevertheless, it is important to keep in mind the saying: "what is good for one person may not be good for another."

My neighbors mirrorhttps://www.geomancy.net/forums/topic/20375-my-neighbors-mirror/ Hi there, I did see a similar question posted but I can't find it again. But similar situation my neighbor has a about 8-9 in by 5-6 in mirror facing out of his main story window facing the right side of my home and it's not within 2 meters from my main entrance but it is right across the alley so I'd say a few meters from my side door which I almost use an equal amount as the main entrance. And there is also a utility pole between my house and there's. You asked that in the other post I stumbled across. Oddly enough I swear I can almost hear and at the very least feel the frequencies emanating off that utility pole straight into my bedroom.

I guess I'm just wondering what the significance of my neighbors mirror may be and also how to protect my home and combat any negativity being sent my account at? Someone recently did a tarot reading for me and I was advised someone is sending possibly some black magic my way and that they were using mirror magic. I just recently was introduced to this whole spiritual awakening and all the aspects of it within the last month. So I'm pretty new to everything. But I did turn all the mirrors in my home to face the walls and its been a night and day difference, physically , mentally, emotionally just everything.

 Sorry this is sinking but I'm told  by multiple people a group of people are projecting negative energy at me constantly to divert my growth and healing journey. So any guidance would be a Godsend right now. I'm mostly wondering..

1. What could somebody possibly accomplish by pointing a mirror this way?

2. What can I do to to combat this...and what can I do to...

   a  show neighbor I am aware of it

   b. That it's not working.

    c. I will not stand for it.

 

Thank you so much. Any help would really benefit me and assist me in my spiritual journey which is apparently under relentless attack for some reason currently  thanks so much..

RE: Chinese Zodiac Tattoohttps://www.geomancy.net/forums/topic/20342-re-chinese-zodiac-tattoo/ Hi I ve done a Chinese zodiac tattoo to cover up on my left back arm tattoo with the original tattoo that comes with the Chinese character 重 under a red spider lily, with the other side of my arm 生 under a lotus flower. In short, I only do a cover up on my left, I did not want to be over suspicious but can't help to think it might be the cause of the cover up tattoo design (new design is a snake head facing the left side of the spider lily). What happen after one week when my tattoo healed, I began hearing sound, strangely only on my left ear too. I became paranoid but never think is the tattoo issues. I went to see ENT, specialists said hearing test is good nothing wrong but since then I will occasionally hear hissing sound on and off and in particular, when I am near fans or radio, the tss sound appear and when turn on all fans or radios or in a total silent room, there is not sound at all. Some may said i am thinking too much but i knew what i heard, just prior to all this thing happen, i lived my whole thirty plus years stable and in peace never will I had felt this way but now i am feeling depressed then I realised, prior to tattooing this new design, I was totally normal nothing wrong, so I am just wondering if the tattooing of my own Chinese zodiac on my body will cause any feng shui or bad luck?? I had contacted my tattoo artist and asked her to help to cover up the snake design with some simple sky drawings, hope that this would resolve the issue or any suggestions will be helpful here ;)

Dear Master,


is it appropriate to locate the alter at the wall behind the toilet? If that's the only place available to place the alter, could I build another wall in between it?


If not is it appropriate to place the alter if the back of the wall if the building's lift?


Please advise. Thank you very much.

Cups on the Altar table https://www.geomancy.net/forums/topic/12772-cups-on-the-altar-table/Frankly, in my opinon, if it only happens once; most likely as you had earlier suspected could be due to "natural" circumstances.
Does any family member(s) had any sort dream recently around the time the fell off.
Other than that; seldom if any a cup could fall off.

After signing the contract I realised that the owner were actually going through a divorce and that was the reason why they had to sell it. Is this going to affect my marriage toohttps://www.geomancy.net/forums/topic/8577-after-signing-the-contract-i-realised-that-the-owner-were-actually-going-through-a-divorce-and-that-was-the-reason-why-they-had-to-sell-it-is-this-going-to-affect-my-marriage-too/ Dear Jessica,

1. It is challenging to provide a comprehensive comment on apartments, as each one is unique.

2. Based on my experience with Feng Shui, I have observed that the layout of an apartment can impact the dynamics of a marriage.

3. Flying Star Feng Shui can be used to identify and address potential issues that may lead to divorce.

4. Certain factors, such as the placement of the main entrance door and the presence of star #3, can contribute to marital problems.

5. Star #3, known as the "quarrels and scandal" star, should be addressed by avoiding water features and using specific colors in certain areas of the apartment.

6. Misplacement of water features can further exacerbate issues related to star #3.

7. The placement of water features in certain areas of the apartment can impact the romantic energy of the space.

8. These are some of the major issues related to marital problems, and there are other factors to consider as well.

In Conclusion

In conclusion, the layout and Feng Shui of an apartment can significantly influence the dynamics of a marriage, with factors like the placement of the main entrance door and star #3 playing a crucial role in potential marital problems. Addressing these issues through Flying Star Feng Shui techniques can help mitigate the risk of divorce and enhance the romantic energy of the space.

Warmest Regards,
Cecil

Magnets on refrigeratorhttps://www.geomancy.net/forums/topic/3075-magnets-on-refrigerator/ Feng Shui does not excessively control every aspect of our lives. 

So, go ahead and use fridge magnets. They are often given as promotional items or vacation mementos.

Many people collect magnets from their travels and proudly display them, showcasing places and iconic buildings from different countries.

Feel free to express yourself. Feng Shui mainly focuses on our Earth Luck, while this area is more related to Human Luck. It's about feeling good, adding a personal and colorful touch. You know what I mean, don't you?

Ancient Chinese Baby Gender Prediction Charthttps://www.geomancy.net/forums/topic/8147-ancient-chinese-baby-gender-prediction-chart/ Dear Rachel,

Rachel Low wrote:
Can i know how to calculate lunar age correctly?

Example:
My birthday is on 28th April 1985. Is my lunar age 22 now? Or it is after my birthday then i can be considered 22?

The accurate way is to to take count the passing of each birthday. We calculate the birth date from the date of birth to your next birthdate. Just similiar to how you calculate your western birth date.

If based on that you are considered to be age 20 until you pass your birthday. If you count based on your lunar birthday, you will be 21 on 6 Apr 2006. Whereas, you will be 21 on 28 Apr 1985 if you take the western calendar.

So since this based on your lunar calendar, as long as you pass 6 Apr 2006, you will be considered age 21.

Hope that helps.

P.S. Nowadays go see a doctor at the correct stage of pregnancy to do a test for gender reveal-:)
