Feng Shui House - Direction
Friday, 28 December 2007 23:00
In the Eight Mansions system the sitting of the house should ideally match the Kua number of the breadwinner. In the Flying Star system house are graded based on their facing direction and period of construction. You cannot apply both systems as the same time as there are bound to be conflicts. In practice you should apply one system thoroughout.
 
Feng Shui Bedroom

The best Feng Shui bed room tip that a Feng Shui expert can offer you is to have your bed in ‘command position’. But before you know what is a command position for your bed it is important for you to understand what is Feng Shui.

Let natural light come to your bed room in the day timeIt is important for you to know Feng Shui is an ancient spiritual discipline which makes use of a process that affects your internal landscape just as much as it affects your physical environment be your home, office or your bed room. Before you start practicing or using Feng Shui enhancements to your living environment it is important for you to know that it is for nourishing and healing your soul. In a Feng Shui practice one is enriching the soul by directing the energies of universe and natural elements such as wind, water, earth, metals to it.
 
Deadly myths of homebuilding
Saturday, 17 March 2007 15:06
I HAVE compiled a long list from our readers who have been asking me regarding their beliefs (or should I say superstition) about the construction process. It is best that we discuss and clarify these myths for these are unfounded and oftentimes deadly, only serving as a deterrent to quality construction.

These deadly myths are:

Myth No. 1: The more steel that I put in the concrete, the stronger the house will be.

Some owners, when they visit the site, always instruct the construction crew to increase the amount of steel to be placed in the columns and beams without the knowledge of the structural designer. They feel that the rewards of the additional expense are great but this will only give them a false sense of security.
