According to brother in law, if you having your pond at the back it has to be elevated. If you having the pond at the front of the house it has to be on the reight side. This according to him coz he's so nuts about "feng sui"

If you have a waterfall or water output, apparently you must have it facing towards the doors of the home, so that the "money" can come in. If they are faced away, say, towards the road, then it is "money" going out.

Re: [koiguyoz] regarding "feng sui" [In reply to] Can't Post

according to fung sui books, devide your house into 9 section using " # " and north is always a place for water. regardless the "bring in money" thingie, it is also for knowledge and wisdom so a small pagoda on the top of your water fall symbolise and enhance "mun cheong".(knowledge and wisdom)... i might be wrong but this is what i got from a si fu's advise for mine...

better pay someone professional and reputable for a basic advise rather guessing. :)

Re: [yeemiau] regarding "feng sui" [In reply to] Can't Post

why do you guys believe in feng shui?
It just sounds like a bunch of bogus to me.
you should be able to build a koi pond where ever you want. I guess its just superstition stuff.
I put my koi pond at a low place facing west and nothing bad happens to me....ever., I dont mean to get you mad. its just my opinion, and can you explain to me why its so special?!?!?!!

Re: [lilhelper] regarding "feng sui" [In reply to] Can't Post

well, you can trace the history about feng sui as far back as over 6000 years..

It is almost like a religion for some people. Also, its' history is older than most religion.

A search in Google helps alot for better understanding with what feng sui actually is about.....

Re: [yeemiau] regarding "feng sui" [In reply to] Can't Post

I guess feng sui is only for those who belive in it, and also those who are not so sure about it..... like me hahaha!!! I have some one told me just like what koiguyoz said. one should always have the waterfall flow toward the house. but I will have my pond build at the right side of the house, and I won't be having waterfall but 2 water curtain instead. therefore the water will flow towards the side of my house. is it ok ha??? BTW yeemiau, if north is a place for water then what is east for?

Wanna more classical understanding of the feng shui or chinese metaphysics, you should go to www.fengshuiresearch.net to read about the discussions and the knowledge of the people there. You will be suprised in thrashing this art of Chinese. Nothing is absolute, though.

Hi Graham,

Don't panic m8, if yo didn't follow the feng sui it doesn't mean something bad will happened. If you believe in it then you've done it the feng sui way, right. You did your waterfalls coz you like them that way and that's all there is, nothing moreSmile

Just relax and have another schooner m8Cool

Re: [Fish4friends] regarding "feng sui" [In reply to] Can't Post

Hi Graham,
For your reference, this is how I look at "fengshui"....
- If you like the existing design and you are happy with it...then the fengshui is good and correct already, as you are happy and enjoy the pond.
- If you are not very happy and want to make modification, but the budget is too much/not affordable, then the current fengshui is good also, as it prevents you from spending more money for modification, stick to it and enjoy.
- Last one, if you have decided that changes/expantion is a must due to new collection or over crowded, then use "fengshui" as an excuse for house minister approval....ha....ha.....ha...LaughLaughLaugh

Rgds,
Edo

Sorry first some people think why so superstitious go and believe fung shui. What I’m talking here jus my prediction n just a basic of fung shui. For me I believe more than 90%. Just talk about house face which side. Some shift new house stay in nothing wrong awhile later husband n wife fighting, quarrel and husband very hot temper everyday, Got related with the main door that we walk everyday some door face at yr neighbor beside is it. That one call 9( in cantonis) door. Person very hot temper. Some can stay depend what type of business that u do…our house got two side left side is dragon n right side is white tiger. Some aldy knew. Our god that we pray outside always put at left side dragon. If don’t believe put at right and c how!!!! left side for man n right side for girl. Door also d same if put yr door at left side man can fine money. If put right side batter for girl batter put at central both also good. Same with bed room girl stay right man stay left.

Batter spend some money fine one fung shui sifu not so expensive. Don’t wait until got problem than only. More money spend have demolish than do again.

I cannot dont believe Feng Shui. Now your turn to help Mr Wong, any feng shui websites?
Okay about quarrelsome couples? How to help a short-tempered, impatient and easily frustrated Mr Wong?
Must be geomacy play with geography of things. I have so many big heavy objects around, the 6.
How? I was told heavy things sit on my lucky spots and burden my luck, so always bad tempered.

Aiyoh, you also try to be funny go against what are known advices?
I qwas the same. Dont ask, dont know, dont care no problem.
Asked already, know already but cannot do much changes, more easily get angry!
Must have offended the PEACE Goddess.

What do you mean door left and right? see from oinside or outside of room?
Ho lun errr! Bim gow arghh? Tie bing yat bin?
Yes, I stay right at the back, no wonder so authoritarian, never give way one.
Zhi yao ero kong, dai kar zhi yao tang. Terrible hor?
Also, my koi station in-front, so not much status?
Where to put pond for koi best leh? Tai duo 6 gor, lun bai, bim gao?
Mr Lee, I wait for some feng shui expert advices.
Any help for bad tempered Mr Wong?

Re: [wongtatchun] regarding "feng sui" [In reply to] Can't Post

Hi Mr. Wong,
I’m not sifu la jus know a bit basic of fung shui only. U believe also. Ha ha ha . I know some cos my boss last time follow one sifu from china only. He follow about 2-3 years learn alots from him than teach me a bit lo. I’m not really good to explain. Hope u understand la.
Hey yr cantonis very shui pei la ha ha ha I don’ understand lo. Smile a bit sure u won’t hot temple lo. SlySlySly
(Dont ask, dont know, dont care no problem). i agree with that..
hai yap bian mong chout hoi lo. U stand at yr main door than c outside (main road). House structure very important for the owner can inference a lots. how long yr life also got related with yr house. House got so many shapes also difference discussion. C yr 8 ji also. House facing which side. where u start walk in to yr house. from front until the back is yr life is carry on. Some house back is higher than front. Some back is lower than front. Some is level. Which one batter. Walk up suffer or walk down suffer simple as ABC…8 a bit where is yr bed room at right side or left side…
(I stay right at the back, no wonder so authoritarian, never give way one) u holding the power in the house aldy. And the right side the back if girl stay Got always fighting with u or not? Ai yo why believe fung shui la ha ha ha

(What do you mean door left and right? see from oinside or outside of room) same method that hai yap bian mong chout hoi lo. U stand at yr main door than c outside (main road). Clear left n right or not? Don’t confuse ok
Yr living hall u feel big or not. Sit down that time relax or not… feel hot or not? Maybe that is yr temper come from la. Hall the bigger the batter. Hall is yr foundation. Kitchen is where u eat n where u spend ok Yr kitchen facing which side. What I mean is u stand look at the stove yr face is it loking at right side of yr house or right side of yr house?
Batter Don’t believe(Dont ask, dont know, dont care no problem) batter don’t talk a lots la Don’t believe la not logic joking la. Basic only. Maybe the sifu looking smile at me la. hey talk alots have to pay money la ha ha haSlySlySly

Re: [lcs] regarding "feng sui" [In reply to] Can't Post

Hi Mr Lee, 2-3 years can learn alot to advise already.
Sorry for my terrible attempt to speak Cantonese using English words.
I had a hard time trying to match a word as substitute.
Proved damned failure hor, so much so you are confused to politely say 'shui'? 'Bor hor lah.'
Oh, I am so angry! No-lah, my temper will rise only to my own members, I am strict.
I know that the house's living hall is the main feng shui area - heart & soul.
But was told by friends too many heavy things block luck, spoil harmony, affect emotions.
Okay lar, my indoor tubs are spaced quite apart but no sofa, no TV, only koi.
No place to sit how? Is this why I am hot-tempered?
Sons always complain I scold and control them too much.
By right with water always humid should be quite cool. Just no sitting area.
Then I must throw my tubs away to free up space and temper??

My whole place sound like rainforest becausing water sound gushing non-stop.
My MRS has the whole front garden bushy then walk to entrance watery koi.
You can imagine how 'forest' the feelings? Everyday in-out the misty forest, no birds.
Supposed to bring harmony and peacefulness, but seems quite noisy.
Mine is a wood symbol type because flat top house.
If pointed ones no good. Neighbours also don't like.
Pointed roots sumbolise fire and trouble.
I never consult any feng shui ppl. Invite 5, 5 different versions come out.
So I prefer don't know, don't ask, don't care, don't bother IF don't have problem.

Okay, feng shui is seen observing from interior of main doors.
My sons and daughter stays upper storey, so still counted or not?
Sons, always fight when young. Girl how can fight? Fight with son-in-law, YES!
Koi color also have feng shui influence?
Bought some black-white some time back, wow instant bad luck come already.
Since bad lucks no point talk too much on that.
So, switched to red, orange, yellow types. Things improve within weeks.
I have hilly area behind my place, so supposed to be good.
But no river in front only 1 stretch of long-gang (drain) seldom got water.

You shared that the kitchen is where u eat and where u spend.
May I ask which side kitchen faces will have what effect on life? Spending power? Eating skills?
When stand looking at stove loking right side of yr house? Means what?
If left side of house lah? Means? Tell me more.
Aiyoh you tell me half-bucket versions how to collect money??? Joking.
You haven't tell me how feng shui can help to control temper, not so easy get angry?
Can koi help? Definitely not the more the merrier. I told you less is more right?
Oh I know that my bed cannot face mirror and my window cannot look out to pointed objects.
All these okay but still studying why hugh? I must visit a doctor for advise not feng shui hor?
Thank you, regards.

anyone here good at or study "feng sui". I need some advice on where to dig my pond.



Hi newkoinut, ownself digging a pond?
I will like a round pond to symbolise FULL CIRCLE, everything smooth and good.
I will like a deep enough pond, that means owner has depth and character.
I like a less cluttered pond, that means owner is open and less shrewd a person.
I like the water to spring out from center to show things come out from the heart.
All I said are mythical and nothing very geomacy related.
For your information. That is my take on IF I HAVE A POND.
Regards, happy shaping of a new pond.

If you having the pond at front of house it has to be on right side.



Hi koi38, Jon, sometimes landed areas dont really have a choice left or right.
Maybe over at your area, housea are big with open areas.
But you are definitely correct that pond MUST be in front of the house for feng-shui.
Watery elements must be in front and with bushy life elements will go no wrong.

Re: [wongtatchun] regarding "feng sui" [In reply to] Can't Post

Hi Mr. Wong,
How r u? Yeap he quiet good in fung Shui. I always ask him. N some time draw some house plan than we discus from there. He just explains to me the basic of fung shui. Normally fung shui sifu seldom explain so detail to the owner. Some bring student around. After lift that place his sifu will ask anything wrong with that house any command. Question n answers carry on. How to avoid? Is not I don’t wan to share with u all cos this is public.I'm scare my statement is it ok to talk in public or not? all this thing is new to me. please tell me ok. jus wan to share only. Maybe some think I’m try to bull (what) around.SlySlySly jus learn something in our life nothing to lose is it? I will PM to u what I learn so far really long story. I hope some of my statement will help u some ok Just to learn a bit of fung shui for our life just want our life harmony, peacefully n smoothly. Don’t sorry I just joking I can understand yr Cantonese la I’m Cantonese also. U doesn’t know me I like to joke a lots. I’m not serious man n not strict. That why my kids not scare me. How also cannot take over mother place. La
Sorry if my word make u upset or got confrontation between yr family member…actually same what I facing now also. Every house also got his own story n historical. Temper some not related with fung shui la. Nothing to do with that. Now this generation cannot use our own old type formulation. Ya u can say u eat salt more that than they eat rice... now not this word no more present aldy. Strict is good, which way strict on which part. As long as they not steeling rob. Strict some turn back worst. Who don’t want their children to become Dragon? Have u ever sit down talk wit yr kids using low voice try to tune to their channel. (Fm 88.8) Have u ever listen to their opinion? (If my fathers always talk a bit only scold batter don’t talk try to avoid him. Let him eat first don’t wan to sit near him also). Some kids really try to suit their family needs. Some family really demand very high to their kids. Relation has to build up from small, Not easy la
One house cannot have 2 dragons. My father rat me myself also rat. From small my father dislikes me. He is a very serious man. n talk very less with me. When I c my father in low. He really talk a lots with his children n the relation there I really admire how come their father so good relation wit them. Every time sit down having dinner together. Talk laugh smile. this I really don’t have ha ha ha What a story la
Hope my story can reduce yr temper to yr family. I'm not the preson in position to give advice. sorry about that.
not logic la joking only.

Regards.
lee
