<description><![CDATA[Much has been written about water in the scope of Feng Shui influences and yet the specific applications for water still elude the general public. This is because we have many theories in the Xuan Kong Flying Star School which need to be learned through actual training.

<description><![CDATA[The constant worry, separation anxiety and practical challenges of running a home that may be moved several times during the deployment of a military spouse is a chronic and cumbersome circumstance that befalls many of the millions of US armed service families. Transience, separation and loneliness compound the daily rigors of running a household in unstable economic times and fulfilling the overwhelming role of both mother and father to children who often worry about the safety of their parent serving and contend with the complexities of adjusting to multiple schools and living environments. All of these factors contribute to much of what cannot be controlled, yet influenced through optimization of environment and focusing awareness to space and the flow, or lack thereof, created within the home.]]></description>

<description><![CDATA[This School of Xuan Kong Feng Shui system rests on the astronomical basis of the "flight patterns of dynamic stars" through the three yuans or eras of nine yuns or periods which holds seriously impactful consequences on the occupants who lived within a confined space walled by at least three sides and a roof over it. The most common interpretation of this criteria is the human residence or shop space that satisfies this prognosis. Modern research are still being conducted into the extent of its potency and pervasiveness on the occupant's well-being at a chosen "confined space" in one location over a correspondingly similar conditions in another location can result in a wide rift in terms of favourable versus unfavourable outcome or degree of luckiness benefiting or affecting the individuals living therein.]]></description>

<description><![CDATA[This week, I want to focus on a very practical issue when it comes to engaging the services of a Feng Shui consultant, which is: What should you ask them? Asking questions is a very important part of the process when it comes to selecting a Feng Shui consultant. Due to the reputation the profession has, which traditionally has been a very informal sort of business, people can be a little hesitant to ask questions - not sure if their questions may be perceived as insulting.]]></description>

<description><![CDATA[Recently, a student forwarded me a copy of an article that appeared on the Internet from AFP, detailing how people in the US are turning to Feng Shui to help improve their love lives and their ability to meet someone, despite this being the era of Internet dating and online-romance. In the article, romance apparently can be yours with this simple method: "The formula for stirring up romantic energy is simple enough.

<description><![CDATA[Over the years, I have put forth the view that Classical Feng Shui is a scientific practice. Now, I have espoused that view of Feng Shui all over the world, when I teach Feng Shui, BaZi and Mian Xiang at seminars. So I was very pleasantly surprised to find out that my comments had created a buzzing debate over the question of what creature Feng Shui is - is it scientific practice?]]></description>

<description><![CDATA[Chinese who believe in FengShui are extremely superstitious about the figures they choose as their telephone number, house, car number and the like. The categorization of some numbers as lucky and some as unlucky depends on the way they sound when spoken. For instance, in western numbers 'eleven' sounds like 'heaven' or number 'eight' sounds like 'weight' or number 'one' sounds like 'son'.]]></description>

<description><![CDATA[In the New Age version of Feng Shui, there is a belief that electronics can liven up a room and stimulate chi (aka qi or energy) in a positive way. This is actually one of the more peculiar notions to come out of the New Age spin-off versions of this ancient practice, where electronic devices were certainly not used or written about as remedies for unbalanced spaces (hundreds or thousands of years ago.) This is not to say that modern items of d?cor or invention can't qualify as legitimate balancing agents in a room.]]></description>

<title>Auspicious Dates Selection</title>

<description><![CDATA[It is a commonly heard practice among the older generations of Chinese to choose an auspicious date and time to perform certain rituals such as bathing of a child during their first month of birth to mundane matters such as taking a road trip for whatever important or quasi-routine significance. The most commonly available resource or tool is that of the Chinese Almanac or Tong Shu which the Cantonese-speaking readers preferably called it "Tong Sheng" (literally translated as Total Victory.) For the illiterate of the past, the most commonly adopted approach would be to choose the Red print text printed therein as "safe date" to use and avoid the Black print text therein. However, this quick and dirty method is severely flawed and that Red print text dates are only good for certain events or matters and not suitable for others. This is the little known caveat that majority of lay people are not aware of till today. Thus, a good understanding of its significance is important whether it is safe to use it or otherwise. The same analogy applies to Black print text dates.]]></description>

<description><![CDATA[Many people are now familiar with at least the concept that Feng Shui is the study of how we are influenced by our natural and man-made environment. There are also complementary fields in Chinese metaphysics which borrow from each other in terms of how we organize the information and interpret it. For example, in Chinese Face Reading, we can look at the face like a map, where the chin represents North and the forehead South.]]></description>
