I am moving to a new house, and I need some advice concerning what color to paint my bedroom, which is on the second floor. I am a female, and my birthday is 01/30/80. I would like a warm color and was thinking about Blue. Is this a wise choice?

Blue will be a very good color for your bedroom.

I was born 1-4-72; am an artist and educator. I have recently been introduced to Feng Shui and am going to buy a book you have suggested to others. I am very excited to find out more information and incorporate it into my life along with the Yoga I have been practicing for 9 months. My question is about another person living in the home. What if they do not share the same beliefs? Will this alter my intentions?

Anytime a person doubts your beliefs, it will affect you. If you strongly believe and allow others their beliefs, and don’t force yours on others, it usually works out.

I am a Capricorn, born on January 10, 1955. My husband was born on October 16, 1951, and our son was born on October 12, 1989. Our front door is facing North, and the house number is 5. What can we do to improve our finances? Also, we would like to make my son’s studying and learning more effective. I would like to be on your mailing list. Thank you for your help.

Add a "3" to your address with clear nail polish. Put a bowl with Chinese coins – or ours – in your Money corner. Also, a plant and an Obelisk would be good there. Have your son study in the New Knowledge corner with full spectrum lighting.  Click on this link to find out more about the meanings of numbers and how to fix them,  http://www.artofplacement.com/howtousenumbers.htm

I am having trouble with relationships. They are long term, but the guys never marry me. Can you suggest some changes for me?

Write an affirmation that "I am so thankful that I am married." Place it in a Red envelope in your Relationship corner.

I was born 1-11-50. My house number is 572; my Fame area is the bathroom with a window seen from the front door. I have a plant hanging from the window and a small mirror on the side of the window. Is this enough? I am confused about my Relationship corner – it’s a side door, leading to a porch. Do I decorate the door or add interest to the porch?

Decorate the door and hang a heart from the ceiling.

Our front door faces South, but we use a back door that faces North as our main entrance form our carport and porch. This enters into a family room. We have a bathroom that sits to the left in a little alcove. We keep the door closed, but you can see the door upon entering the house. I have hung a crystal in the little alcove between the outside door and the bathroom door. Is there anything else I should do? Should we hang a mirror reflecting the person entering? Thank you for your website. This is so new and exciting. Have already experienced good things by changing and rearranging. Still a lot more to do.

Hang the mirror and things will get even better.

I left a question on your website having to do with my grandmother’s furniture in my house, but have not seen a response. Just read the updates through January, so you may not have had the chance yet to respond. Also, I called 520-284-2961 and asked for someone to contact me about times and prices for a consultation, but no one has contacted me. Could you contact me via Email and let me know about a consultation?

It is on the ‘Net. I will email you.

I have very severe and frequent migraine headaches. Are there any Feng Shui principles I can apply that would help? Thank you very much.

Let air circulate in your home by opening the windows, weather permitting. Play classical music and wear Turquoise clothes when you are upset or nervous.

I was born on 9/22/1952 at 12:35 a.m. My husband was born on 2/14/1941 (time unknown). My daughter was born on 9/14/1980 at 3:35 a.m. We live at 112 Wood Avenue. My daughter is not a very happy person and has suffered with varying degrees of depression since she was a child. She now attends university and is presently living in a dormitory room 432. However, she will be leaving there the end of May. Is there something I can do to create a more positive energy flow for her? What should her new residence address numbers total?

When people suffer from depression, you always add light and bright colors. Plants always help.

I was born on January 22, 1961 at 12:28 p.m. I have had 6 back surgeries to fuse two vertebrae within four years, and it has left me with chronic pain as I’m trying to regain control of my life. Will I reach the life success that I know I am capable of? Also, how much do consultations cost? Please add me to your mailing list. Feng Shui has made itself known to me because I think it may be what I need to recover from my major back problems that affected all parts of my life in undesirable ways. Thank you for your site.

You are now on the list.

I am living in rented accommodations. I have just moved rooms, and my bed is facing North. I have never had problems sleeping, but since I have been in that room (about a month now), I have had very restless nights, walking at least 5 or 6 times. What do you think might help?

If you can, turning your bed so you face South would be the best. If you can’t, write a sign saying North and put it behind the headboard or on the wall behind your head – you will be fine.

House #699 faces East; 40-60-ft. tree outside front door; b-day 10/4/52, roommate 5/17/40. Bought Ba-Qua mirror from W&W through Pacific Spirit catalogue. Instructions for placement of mirror say, "hand directly above front door outside your home." Problem: door fame abuts directly into overhang; there is no "directly above front door." Front of overhang above front door? Sidewalk leading to house is sharp right angle to doorway, ending at 6-ft. high concrete block wall. Thank you.

Hang the mirror on the front door facing out.

I followed instructions in a book to determine my birth number (Kua?) and came up with a negative number 4. My birth date is June 10, 1959. What is the correct number?

The number 4 in a birth chart means you will work hard and have lots of responsibility. Embrace that thought and realize you can do it easy, and you will have a happy and productive life.

I am very interested in Feng Shui. In fact I am very excited – please tell me how to start since I have had a lot of trauma in my life. My birth date is 29 December 1961. The time was 11:15 a.m. My rented house # is 806. I would like to purchase this house.

Liz, please call and set up a time to talk to me. Call 520-284-2961 and get a consultation appointment.

I was born on 7 September 1967 and have over the last six months had a run of bad luck. I was unemployed for three months, and not back in employment but am still having financial difficulties. Does my birth year say anything about my prospects improving in the latter half of 1999? I look forward to your response.

Your life will improve in the last half of 1999.

Does the practice of Feng Shui extend to placement of plants, statues, etc., in the yard or garden? Does it triangle objects of plants according to height? Thank you for your time.

Yes, it extends to your garden and whole property. Size always has an affect.

My husband (birth date is September 10, 1967) and I (birth date is October 9, 1969) just bought a house. It has two entrance doors – main door faces SE, and side door (will be used more often) faces SSW. The house number is 1. With regard to Feng Shui, what can we do to enhance "good luck" and diminish "bad luck" at our new house? Your advice is greatly appreciated. Thank you.

Hang a Ba-Qua mirror over your front door, and it will improve your whole life.

Please, when you have a Chinese frog with a coin in its mouth, should it face toward the door or not? I have been told both ways. Which is correct? Please advise. Thank you.

I should face the door.

I was born 10/16/55 at 8:06 p.m. On 3/11/99 I was terminated from my job. My address is 3917 Lighthouse. I am trying to fight the IRS by using the law to exercise my Constitutional rights. Could you tell me what I can do to protect myself legally from being attacked, and will my luck change? Can more than one Ba-Qua mirror be used for the same house? I have a flute, 2 deep red tassels, and 3 Ba-Qua mirrors ordered. Any suggestions on placement? Front door faces North (Sough house). I am fire. Thank you for your website and the kind service you provide.

Anytime you fight the government, they set the rules, and you will come out on the short end. Don’t respond to them, and your life will improve. Yes, you can use more than one Ba-Qua mirror.

We are buying a house with a bathroom in the left rear corner – Wealth area. It is a long room with the toilet on the very edge of the area, partially in family area.. What cure should we use for a toilet that’s partially in the Wealth area and partially Family?

Hang a Red tassel from the ceiling directly over the toilet. Hang a plant in the corner, and keep the toilet lid down when not in use.

My relationship with my finance’s 9-year old son is very bad and getting worse. We argue, and he does not like me. The Children side of my house is the staircase to the second floor. I am starting to practice Qigong in hopes that it will help. Can Feng Shui offer me any help? My birthday is November 1, 1963; his son’s birthday is May 14, 1990.

Yes, Feng Shui can help you. Put a picture of you and the boy in your Relationship corner of your bedroom with affirmations written on the back … "how thankful you are that you two get along so well.

Thank you for a wonderful, informative, and guiding site. My greatest concerns are relationship and wealth. We are newly married after a 5-year good relationship, but things have not been going so well lately. My birth date is 13 October 1960, and my husband’s is 7 August 1959, both born in South Africa. What are our best colors, directions and elements? From a lot of information found on many different sites on the Internet, our directions, colors and elements seem to be conflicting. What can we do to increase/induce our compatibility? There is a lot of love between us, but many things seem to upset that from time to time … Money/Career-wise, we are both artistic (musical). Could this eventually be a join career direction for us to create comfortable wealth? What other area could we explore? We struggle a lot just to pay the bills. Thank you very much for any assistance/information you may give us.

Place your pictures of you two together in your Relationship corner with affirmations of how thankful you are that you two are doing so well. Don’t worry about conflicting corners or colors.

I am so glad that I found your site. I hope you can help me with my problem. My birth date is March 6, 1967. I was born in Ukraine, Eastern Europe. My boyfriend’s birth date is August 15, 1962. We have been seeing each other for almost two years, and I would like us to get engaged and married. He seems to have a "C" phobia. I must say that the past 10 years have been really hard for me. I was once married and divorced in four years. Since than, I haven’t been able to have a steady, committed relationship. And not only that, my entire life seems to be "stuck" in survival. Everything is so difficult – personal life, career, money, etc. I tried to help my relationship. I am a little confused, though. In relation to an entrance, my Relationship corner is North, otherwise, it is SW, and that is exactly where my bathroom is. I do keep the lid closed all the time, and the door shut. So I decided to concentrate on North. It is my living room. I bought some silk peonies and roses, and put them in that corner. I always hung a picture of peonies and roses, and placed a Red envelope with an affirmation. When I’m home I burn two red candles in that corner. I also put some pictures of Red flowers and a Red envelope in my bedroom’s North corner. What else can I do? How can I possibly break through this doom and gloom in my life? Thank you very much!

Relax. Hang a picture of the two of you in your Relationship corner, and things will improve.

My husband was born 8 June 1964; I was born 4 November 1972. We have had 4 years of back luck with both health and money. We have been on the move, not staying in any one place for longer than 6 months. Now, we have found a house we life at 4 Steeple Retreat. My husband has just started his own business. What can we do to boost his business so we can be able to buy this house? We have a stained glass window as you enter the front door, and I have just placed a plant inside the entrance. This is not the door we use to enter the house – we use the carport door. Does this make a difference? I hope I can find your answer. It is my first time on the "Net."

I would rather you both used your front entrance. Hang a Ba-Qua mirror over both entrances, and things will improve.

I am newly introduced to Feng Shui, and I find it very interesting. Can I just buy a book and work on how to make our home in accordance to Feng Shui’s standards? Thank you.

Order from us. Sarah Rossback’s book, "Feng Shui Interior Design" will get you started quite nicely.

I was born on October 6, 1955, and my husband was born on June 5, 1953. It is my first time to read about Feng Shui, and I got so interested about it. We purchased an apartment on October 29, 1997, and our building number is 1950; our apartment number is 406. The main entrance faces North, and the master bedroom faces South. What could this indicate in our life regarding wealth, health, career, and relationship? Thank you very much for your advice.

It shows you are getting spiritual help and a higher new beginning.

I’ve just heard for the first time the words "Feng Shui." I’m a Christian and concerned about practicing Feng Shui. Is this a religion? I could use some help in the financial place in my life and focus on goals, plus career aspects. Is this something for me, or should I look elsewhere? Thank you for your time and consideration.

It is not a religion. It is a science and a practice.

I am a single mother of two boys close in age, and would like to meet my soul mate for marriage. I’d also like to stop the boys from bickering, increase their grades and our abundance. There are two entrances to our house – the front door is seldom used if ever because we use the side door that enters tot he right of the kitchen and looks down our hallway. The bathroom is on the right, and all three bedrooms are at the end of the hall very close to each other. Mine is on the right, and to the left of the end of the hall is my youngest son; across from his room is my oldest son. The front door entrance comes into the living room and faces the hallway. There is a fireplace to the right in the center of the wall. What do you suggest for peace, abundance, marriage, and knowledge? Which door would be my entrance?

Hang a Ba-Qua mirror over the entrance. Hang a mobile from the ceiling between boys’ rooms. Place an Obelisk in your Money corner.

My house number is 1705. Is this a good or bad number? If bad, what can I do to fix it?

It is not a good number. Add a "3" plus a "1" in clear nail polish to address number at the front of the house. Click on this link to find out more about the meanings of numbers and how to fix them,  http://www.artofplacement.com/howtousenumbers.htm

Upon entering my home, there is a wall about two feet to the left of the door that runs about 10 feet high. Thus, once cannot turn left as I’ve read in your articles and Questions/Answers. Should I do something to correct this? Thanks in advance.

Hang a mirror on that wall with flowers near it, and that will improve things.

My house number is 819. Is this a good number?

It is OK.

I’m a little confused about the directions when I try to use the Ba-Qua on a floor plan. In once book, I was told that I should face the entrance tot he room; in another book by Master Lam Kam Chuen, he said it should be based on the direction the Chi is coming into the room, which means my back will be facing the entrance. Which is correct? What is the correct way of placing the Ba-Qua on a floor plan to decipher which elements I’m lacking?

Always, set the Ba-Qua from the entrance.

I’m just researching Feng Shui and very interested. I would like to know where the Relationship corner of the house is, and what I could put there to help with finding a partner. Also, please add me to your mailing list, and thank you so much for providing this site.

Your Relationship corner is the farthest right-hand corner of your house from the entrance. Hang a heart in the corner, and hang a picture of a loving couple in that corner.

I live in a small house at 11 Storey High, and have been staying here for almost ten years, since 1990. I have two kids and a wife. I found out that all these years, my wealth is not that ideal. Everything I’ve earned, I’ve had to spend – mainly in medical fees for my two kids, or to replace some faulty household appliances, so not much savings all these years. My job pays quite well, but I’m not very happy with it as it requires 24-hour standby and really puts me into the poor house. Can Feng Shui help me in this case? Is it that some of my things inside my house are not in proper order? Attached is a drawing of my house plan. Thanks.

Feng Shui will help you very much. You can read the site and Feng Shui books, and you can call 520-284-2961 and book a consultation. All the above will help.

My husband and I are about to embark on a great venture. He is recording his first music CD, and we are very excited and positive about it. His birth date is September 26, 1958, and mine is February 16, 1962. Can you tell us if this is going to be successful or what we can do to make sure it is?

Please call me at 520-284-2961 and book a consultation, and I will help you.

What would be the best colors to use in the bedroom for a Virgo woman and an Aries man?

Use Blue with some Red accents in the room, and you will do fine.

I’m in the process of buying my first home with my finance. I’ve just begun to look into Feng Shui. I do have a few questions regarding colors for decorating, type of house that would be right for us in terms of prosperity, health, and happiness. His birthday is 1-1-69, middle of the night, and mine is 9-14-75, before 9:00 a.m. Also, I’d appreciate it if you’d put me on your mailing address.

Buy a square or rectangle-shape house on a quiet street with a square or rectangle-shaped lot. Do not buy on a cul de sac or odd-shaped lot. Stay away from numbers that ad up to 4 or 7 in your address.  Click on this link to find out more about the meanings of numbers and how to fix them,  http://www.artofplacement.com/howtousenumbers.htm

We just moved into a new home (1560 SW 186th) and in a new state. He is a West person (1/31/47), and I am an East group (1/14/50). My partner’s stomach hurts off and on due to the job and coffee, and my daughter’s (2/1/86) stomach hurts, as well. I suspect my daughter’s hurt corresponds to the new school. I have enhanced the career station with a map for me. The dog is also sick. What can I do to enhance our health?

Use bottled water. Add green to their wardrobe. Things will improve.

I am a "Ken" and live in a "Ken" house. Unfortunately, the Marriage/Relationship corner is missing, and I need to know how to cure that since I have had bad relationship luck since moving here ten years ago. There is a spa in the yard where the corner would be. My bedroom is in the "Children" section (my children are grown), so my bedroom window looks out to the missing partnership section. I put a bamboo plaque with lovebirds in a cherry tree hung on a Red tassel by that window. What else can I do? I read on one of your Q&A sections that one may "treat as many relationship corners as possible." Does that mean the Northeast corner of each room in the house?

Treat all Relationship corners in the house, and things will get better.

I am writing to request some additional information regarding Feng Shui consultations. Do you provide both onsite and offsite consultations. I’m in Albuquerque, New Mexico, so if you were able to do an offsite consultation, why type of information would you require?

Please call 520-284-2961 to book a consultation.

Thanks for the great site. I was born January 13, 1981 at 13:45. I live with my parents at 161 Paldiski Road, Apt. 14. Is this a good place to live, and what can you tell me about my life? I am graduating high school and I don’t know what to do next.

It is a good number for building and apartment. Call me at 520-284-2961 and leave your number so I can call you back.
