Q: Is it true that when a house has missing corners, we can renovate that particular missing corner with mirrors to extend that space virtually. And in doing so, we minimise or solve the missing corner problem?
Dear regulars, I've been answering this individually to each of you until I really need to put up here. I've also been contemplating this for a long time because by putting up the answers here, many people will find their theory contradictory. However, we do not compromise with the truth and authentic practises.
When a house has a missing corner due to the design. It is missing forever. You cannot have it replace or assume a virtual location form by any means. Placing a mirror is a good way to make the house look spacious and especially effective over missing areas. However, it cannot create back the space in terms of a sector, say "South".
It is ridiculous for a person to say that by putting up the mirrors, the sector is not missing anymore. This is because South sector Qi comes from the South. Missing the particular sector or space means you have less of that space's Qi to use within your house. Simple?
If such simplicity cannot be comprehended, then it is not appropriate to loosely use the word "classic/ authentic" feng shui in books or websites or advise people.
Q: Tilting of main doors
Over the years, I have also been asked many times about this topic. For my personal reason, this was a method required by my predecessors not to divulge as a condition for mastering.
There are emails queries from those I audited. There are also concerns about it even before a house audit engagement.
Over here I would like to give some clarifications. First of all, this method requires a combination of methods to apply. I'm not sure how the market goes, sometimes I passed by certains shops, offices and homes with main door being tilted without regards to many important factors.
Secondly, there are also many considerations when applying such a skill. I can't just see that when there's a benefit and start tilting. Overall, it is not a method where it is flaunt at every opportunity. Personally, if its possible, I wouldn't apply it if there's another way. In addition, it takes up a lot of time. Aligning correctly in the positive sense, it can bring much enhancements. Alternatively, it can also use to avert tragedies. However, when applied wrongly (as it requires a high degree of accuracy in my practise), it can be catastrophic.
I only use this method when it is really necessary or under special request/ circumstances. Tilting door under my hands are safe and sound. The most is nothing happens to you :)
Albeit, it is coupled together with other instructions. Do not do as an isolation.
Another question related to this is whether my skills or methods is similar to Rev Hong Chuan.
No, according to my humble observations, his was base on 金龙动. If any of his lineage wish to clarify, welcome.
I realised some practitioners are doing tilting doors as well. I had the opportunity to come across a number of cases and all happened to be done wrongly. You will need to be careful with the experience of the fengshui master before doing any door tilting.
Q: Why my house after being audited still remains the same or not much changes?
Very interesting question. Each of you have different expectations or perspectives of feng shui.
The fact is all those who consulted me or are my regulars seldom ask this question and even if so, they will ask me immediately/ personally after the audit and rectify with me. All those who consulted me correspond through emails and all matters are clarified. It is very doubtful and incredulous to put forth such statements as above or questions concerning the audit (especially saying that your friend said) in website forums. Whoever you are or whatever the intentions, please ask your friend why he hasn't verified with me in the first place on the above remarks.
The above statement is written after a "poster" has made such remarks in a public forum.
Naturally many people would want to get a feng shui audit and inject some enhancements to wealth or career. You must understand that a particular person may have certain problems bigger than wealth at a certain point of time. I have to take charge and use initiatives in recommending an advise. Not easy and often weighs heavily as a burden. it will be quite noticeable if you see me standing at one spot or walking back and forth to the same place spending a long time. Read my facial expressions and you may get the picture from my frowning.
Somethings I know much better, after all what can 20++ years day in and day out onsite do to me? Its just like a concern father having to make the decisions of redirecting the child to walk which path. You want the sweets but there's a manhole infront, will I still want to let you walk? I think this is also one reason why I have slowed down and not taking too many cases nowadays.
Especially recent few years, I've been taking on cases where owners have seek a few masters before. You know well if you are reading this. What other masters who can't do or make a mess out of your home ended up in my hands. You think its easy? Why not easy? This is because some owners have confused themselves by continuing to keep certain arrangements and feng shui ornaments as advised by the previous master. Who doesn't prefer an easy job, with almost all settings in my favour and I only need to do some light touch-ups? To me, a piece of work is still a piece of work irregardless if I got to spend 4-5hrs in a 3rm HDB. I take much satisfaction in solving a problem rather than hearing someone got a windfall. Different houses allow different activation level which will follow through rewarding benefits. Some people may get an increment, some may get a bonus, some may be promoted to get a higher salary. In all, benefits may come in different forms. So it is good to stand back and look a the circumstances surrounding you and not straight away jump to a conclusion and want what your friend has benefited from me.
Some incidents would be that you don't see an impending calamity but I saw and I divert for you.
Some of you have to know that if you give me a cardboard shoebox to work on, I can only do so much like make it more stronger or less chances to leak. I can't change your shoe box to become a gold box.
Some came to me comparing with their referral. My friend recommended me because he wins majong most of the time or just got promoted or closed many business deals or got a baby. I can't always assure you of the same until I see the "shoebox".
Anyway there are many aspects in a household. There are health, wealth, career, spouse relations, children welfare, children's studies, no children, neighbours, gambling, MIL/ family harmony, rebellious teens, business partners, court case, fines, accidents, prospective relations........and you give me a cardboard shoebox with 8 persons living in it asking each and everyone to have everything :)
There are maybe masters who proclaim such. I wish them good luck.
Why are you so stringent with your instructions/ advises?
This has been corresponded to and fro with many people who consulted me. One of the greatest gift in life is experience. How do I know if my skill is 100% correct. It is the unfailing time after time repetition of use and exposure to variations. I understand fully some of the new couples concerns to design and own taste or following the ID's recommendations. I have a bigger concern as to your future and welfare.
I prefer not in just giving what you want or accommodating to your request when I know the truth. Of course I may suggest alternatives but you need to understand the priority. I prefer to see you through for a longer period of years to come. Between my reputation and your welfare, the latter takes priority which is more holistic. Thus the instructions are necessary to follow. If at any point you think that your spouse is not a believer or you are completing only half of my instructions, please do not engage me.
Here, sometimes health or a life may be at stake. If anyone crosses path with you and intercept your elements has the heart to do inexperience work or weigh your situation haphazardly, let his soul bear the consequences. Why the comments so serious? Yes, because regards to any life, if you can change or manipulate, it is very serious matter. Money cannot earn finish but once a life is in distress, anyone with conscience cannot ignore.
I do not want to talk about karma here but there is always "因果". What's the difference......will tell you next time if I'm in the frame of mind ( with excess time).
