Dear Cecil,


I have a few questions on feng shui:

1) My apartment main entrance faces south west (big earth) while my back
door (back of kitchen) faces the north. In most apartment, the layout is
weird as my kitchen is next to my entrance, separated by the wall that
formed part of of my main entrance. I know the apartment is not really good
for me as I am a weak fire person (big earth exhausts fire) and it is a west
type of house while I am an east person (kua = 9). I have painted a wall
facing the main entrance brown and put a red carpet in front of the main
entrance to strengthen the earth element as my apartment is still considered
auspicious till 2003 when the number 7 rules. I have double 7s for the
mountain star and water star. Did I do the correct thing? My unit conforms
to the tortoise hill landscape as all around my unit, I have greenery and
the whole apartment rests on an elevated road with its main entrance facing
a road. The left side of the whole apartment blocks (green dragon) is more
prominent than the right. (outside looking in)

2) How do you counter the ill fs effects of a toilet that corresponds to a
good sector? Other than closing the door and putting a 6 rod windchime in
the toilet or tying a boulder with red string to symbolically press down on
the bad shar qi?

3) Since my apartment main entrance faces the southwest (3rd sector) and my
back door faces north, how does this affect the computation of the mountain
star and water star? In computing my apartment's unit natal chart, I arrive
at the numeral for mountain star assuming it is the direct opposite
direction to my main numeral.

4) In computing the flying feng shui numeral for a period, say for example
period 7, does the direction move forward or backward? I understand they
always move forward, i.e in positive direction + and when you compute the
natal chart for a house, whether the numerals move + or - depends on which
sector of the compass (15 in total) the main entrance faces.

Sorry to put forth so many questions at one go...hehe, I am thirsting for
some enlightenment and I am really interested in feng shui.

Thanks Cecil.

Sincerely,
Kieren
