Question 1: 5 Element Dragons
with Water Feature Becomes Powerful
Dear Feng Shui Scholar. I have
a few questions which I hope you may be able to answer.
We have the 5 element dragons, in what position do they
merge and bond? Do you put them in a circle, to form the
productive cycle with the fire element dragon facing south
or side by side.
Also do the compass directions change if we are in the southern
hemisphere?
Water brings the dragons to life, would placing these dragons
in a bowl which contains the Crystal Lotus Water Fountain
enhance the dragons? We also have the Treasure Filled Cloisonne
Pumpkin, is it better to have the lid closed on the pumpkin
or have the treasures visible?
Final question,is
it good or bad to display photographs of deceased loved
ones?
Many Thanks Gabriele
Answer:
Dear Gabriele,
You can place the 5 Element Dragons side by side, in circular
position or even at random. I m glad you thought about
the productive cycle of five elements where fire produce
earth produce metal produce water produce wood, which
means you can place red-yellow-clear-blue-green successively.
That is how it is meant for. But there is no need to worry
about which dragon to place in which direction. If you
like to do that, by all means do that. But if you can't,
you can place all of them together in any of the 8 directions,
because the presence of all 5 Elements actually balances
the energy and give "sheng chi" to any corner.
That is to solve the elemental problem of any enhancers
and their make.

The compass direction
at southern hemisphere will not change. Please continue
to use the compass direction. Yes, if you place the 5
Element Dragons in the vicinity or into your water features,
they will work remarkably powerful.

You will have to close the lids of the
Treasure
Pumpkin and save the treasures inside to make it
work for you! We had many customers coming back to tell
us how wonderful the item had worked for them.
Good luck to you!

Question
2: Problems with Competitors Snatching Business
Dear Feng Shui Scholar,
I was born December, 1951. I set up a small business in
the Philippines and let my sister managed it. For the first
couple of years it was okay. Few years later competitors
rise up unbelievably and over powering my business and taking
my customers with them. Please help me, I don't know what
to do.
Respectfully yours,
Lourdes
Answer:
Dear Lourdes,
In the business world, when you become
successful, sour grapes will appear where they normally
get jealous and vow to win you over and snatch your good
things away. These are not smart business people. The
wise ones will think of ways to maintain good relationship
with the ones in the same field to harmoniously earn a
living together and together help each other sustain for
a long long time. Else sooner or later, they will find
themselves frustrated and unable to survive either.
To maintain competitiveness and able to battle to survive
in such situation, you will require to invite the 5 Dragon
Flags Kwan Kung into your business premises and have HIM
face the maindoor. He will keep a watchful eye on those
who are trying to play dirty tactics on you. The other
option is to place HIM in your own home where you are
staying and let HIM face the maindoor. There are two sizes,
one huge and another limited edition one which is slightly
smaller. You may get either one depending on your budget
and space.

Of course you ought to revamp your business to understand
the gap that had allowed your competitors to snatch your
customers away. Fill up the gap and then change the strategy
to move your own direction. Especially if pricing strategy
used by your competitors are keen, there is no use to continue
on because all of you could end up working hard throughout
your life and making no money. Let them compete among themselves
and work hard their whole life without getting rich. Instead,
you could brainstorm on a better marketing strategy and
change your direction in service to come out unique. Or
sway away into a different area because there are so many
fields that could bring you business.

Also useful if you get the gold arowana on your workdesk
because the arowana is very effective at bringing business
luck. It promises new business waves coming your way.
On the other hand, if you like to see improvement, a fleet
of eight heightening red jade tortoises will also help
secure your improvement in business. Hang it at your sheng
chi direction.

Question 3: Tips on Looking
for a New House
Hello Scholar,
We are planning to buy a house but there are so many things to consider Feng Shui-wise. What are the most important things that I need to be aware of when looking at homes?
Gemminy Crickette
Answer:
Dear Gemminy,
There are just too many things you will need to look at
when buying a house. An email is unable to write it all.
But in general, you may want to make sure that the house
is
1. free from poison arrows facing the maindoor and front
facing direction
2. free from view of schools, hospitals, churches, graveyard
etc
3. is built on a regular land plot, like rectangle or
square
4. with good balance of mountains or building structures
around it, for example with presence of green dragon on
the left and a black turtle at the back.
5. has good natal flying stars chart. You may check out
our article which had been
nominated as the best summary for flying stars by the
International I-Ching Society, written originally by us.
6. correct locations of toilet and kitchen and stairs.
Good luck!
Warmest Regards,
Feng Shui Scholar

Question 4: Using Feng Shui
For Those Living In Quarters
I was wondering if it's even possible
to improve my living quarters with feng shui when there
is so much clutter surrounding the building that I'am living
at. I would like to improve my wealth, health, prosperity.
If its possible, what items would be the best ones? There
are so many different types I don't know which ones to pick.
Thank you.
Pat McCabe USA
Answer:
Dear Pat,
There is the micro level and makro level in feng shui. If you cannot do anything with the makro level, you can always do within your own micro level which is the space you live in for example the bedroom.
Yes, you are right about the number of enhancers available.
But each one is unique by itself because of different
meanings behind them. On the areas you would like to enhance
in, I would recommend the followings:
1. Wealth - since you are living in quarters and not in
your own home, identifying the water star#8 position and
activating it may not be appropriate. What you can invest
on is the Wealth
Blossom Treasure Groundnuts, the 24K
Gold Arowana, 24K
Gold Pig Carrying Ingots and the Wealth
Absorbing 3-Coins Obsidian Wulou. These item fits
nicely into small quarters. On top of that you can also
wear some luck enhancing crystals, especially those made
from natural genuine citrine, like the bunch
of natural citrine chips bracelet and the 9
Eye Dzi with 8 Shaped Citrine bracelet.

9 Eye Dzi 8 Shaped Citrine Bracelet

2. Health - to
ensure you keep sickness at bay, you can go for the 8
red jade tortoises amulet beside your bed and also the
vintage tortoise and crane longevity coin hung at your
bedroom's doorknob.

3. Prosperity - money frogs are one of
the most popular enhancers for those who desire to get
rich. Since you are in the quarters, the best is to get
the 5
Emperor Coins Money Frog to draw as much riches from
all directions to you as possible. If possible, you can
also place the 5
Element Gold Ingots made from 5 colored crystals in
the vicinity of the frogs.

Marge USA
Answer:
Dear Marge,
We have many customers who request us to comment and provide
advice on products they bought from other places, but
we do not wish to give any comments because we do not
know the authenticity and wish to keep away from criticizing
to maintain good business ethics.
If your maindoor is not facing your correct orientation
which is the east directions, then you can cure this orientation
problem with our authentic Noble Tortoise Bagua Loshu
.

To improve luck in wealth, health and harmony, we recommend the followings:
1. Wealth - when we talk about wealth, we refer to long
term finance growth that will last from one generation
to another. To make this happen, the best is to activate
your Water Star #8 according to your natal flying stars
chart based on your home's facing direction and period
it was built. You could also tap on the annual flying
star #8, which is located in the north sector of all houses
this year. To activate this white star #8, you can display
our 8 White Stars Ornament with Ken in those locations.
To accumulate abundance and sustain good growth of wealth,
you should also not miss out on keeping a wealth vase.
For that, you are recommended to select and build the
most complete set of 8-Carps Wealth Vase set.

2. Health - The most authentic area to
activate your health is the sector where mountain star#8
is in your natal flying star chart. Place a natural
yellow jasper mountain in that area. Or you can also
place the same 8
White Stars Ornament to make it more pronounced in
activating this mountain star. Next, is you have to ensure
you have a pair of crane
and deer by your bedside to ensure you longevity.
You can also hang the Longevity
Tortoise Crane Coin at your bedroom's doorknob. Do
not forget to cure the Illness Stars #2 in your home be
it annual
or natal
charts.

& Deer and Crane

3. Harmony - First and foremost to ensure
harmony, be sure that your center of the house is cured
with our 3
Prisms on Triangle. You may also invite the Gods of
Harmony the "Her
Her Deities of Relationship" into your living room
to sustain a harmonious family always. What is more, you
can also carry along or hang in windows or your car the
Jade
Lotus Amulet.
