My husband and I purchased a condo in May; we’ve had terrible financial luck since. The week we moved in, my husband lost his job and hasn’t been able to get another one. We’ve also been hit with thousands of dollars in medical bills. Our building number is 4445 and our unit number is 110 I can’t add anything to the building number because it is too high up on the front of the building for me to reach. Also, our front door and back door are in perfect alignment with each other. I tried to remedy this by placing an entrance table in the front hall, but it hasn't helped. I was born 8/16/70 around 2:00pm and my husband was born 4/17/68 around midnight. What can I do to alleviate our financial stress? Thanks for your help!

You can fix both numbers, which are both for financial disaster numbers. Add a number 6 with clear nail polish to the front of the building on the wall even if it is not as high as the regular address number. The one on your condo will be easy, hang a crystal over back door. This will change things for you.

We moved into a new home last September 10 in a SW direction. The house faces 109 degrees East (number 18). It is a lovely home but the house sits NW and all the auspicious directions are my husband’s negative directions and the positive directions are for me.  Therefore, he has no positive directions.  For example, the S, N, SE and E are negative for the house and these are his positive directions.  I am studying to become a Feng Shui Consultant through Joseph Yu in Toronto.  Husband born 28 April 52 (12:30 noon) and myself, 1 September 55 (8:30).  I have placed enhancements in all life stations.  I have put another “8” in clear nail polish on the door.  For 4 months now, I have tried to get my husband’s career going but I am baffled.  How can I become a consultant when I can’t “cure” my own problems?

Tell me the shape of your house. Let me know where your driveway and garage are situated.  Tell me about your entrance. I will help you.

My house is a two-room building with each room 12x25. It faces a SE direction. All my entries are sliding glass doors.  It was an addition to a home and was originally built on as an art studio and master bedroom. The bedroom/office-art studio (divided areas) is the front room and the living room/ dining/ kitchen is the backside. I use the entry on the NE corner of the building, which is the kitchen. It was built on to the front of the main house but is only connected by a door that is blocked off. There are basically no common walls, as this door is in the corner of the foyer of the main house. My question is - do I use a compass or do I stand in the door I use as the entry to lay out my Ba-Qua template?

Use the door that everyone uses to enter most.

My DOB is 4 March 52 at 11:25 a.m. in Zanesville, Ohio, and my address is 811 N. Colony Dr., #69. I have had many misfortunes in recent years.  A recently purchased used car broke down on the way home when the clutch went out.  My physical state is weak. I have weathered great trials so far in my life and feel spiritually depleted.  What lies ahead for me?

Your planets are trying to force you to set goals and a strong life plan and go forward with the plan without fear. Your planets are telling you step off the curb take one step at a time and cross the street. You will be fine.

I have a new and bigger home that I have wanted for a long time! My husband has encouraged me in our 2 year relationship, 7 year friendship (married in may 23^rd 1999) so I felt very confident in the move! However, we have had a hard time getting into this place – to qualify for loans, the land owners are very strict with their rules, making it very difficult to keep this place and get in!!! Since we have tried to move I’ve had to change my job several times; my husband has had a new one, also, and I worked for my last employer for 7 years!!!! I have a 28x64 ft. Mobile home #58;  the street address to park is 8601. Our financial situation is very unstable, even his bank account is bouncing checks when there is plenty of money in the account to cover them! Our front door is our back door, which opens to the drive where we have space to park two vehicles, one in front of the other. We still have things in boxes, we have neither the time or energy to unpack, for all the extra shifts we work to pay the extra bills! We can’t breathe.

Your mobile home number is the root of your problem, add a “3” and a “1” with clear nail polish to your #58, and you will be fine.   Click on this link to find out more about the meanings of numbers and how to fix them,  http://www.artofplacement.com/FengShui/numbers.htm

I am interested in Feng Shui for a variety of reasons – after reading the question and answers section, am thinking that improvements we have made to our home in recent years are in direct contrast to the Feng Shui ways. I was born 3 April 1947 at 1:47 a.m. in Milwaukee; my husband was born 17 January 1956 in Holyoke Massachusetts; son, 25 June 1985 at 11:30 p.m.; daughter, 9 April 1990, at 8:30 a.m. – both in SW PA. Our address has been changed for 911, but we are still considering lot numbers 406 even though out mailing address is 152. Our home is, after remodeling, now slightly “L” shaped. The front door faces SE.  I have been without energy, lethargic, yet restless.

152 is a good address number.   Click on this link to find out more about the meanings of numbers and how to fix them,  http://www.artofplacement.com/FengShui/numbers.htm

My house is a very open plan in the center of the house with the master bedroom on the North end of the house and the rest of the rooms on the South end of the house. As I enter my house through the front door on the West side of the house there is a small wall with a fish tank that opens up to my dinning room, kitchen and living rooms. Should I use the Ba-Qua life stations chart for each room separately or as a whole house? The negative energy here is overwhelming at times and our financial situation keeps getting worse. Do you have any suggestions for me on this subject? My DOB is 9 Sept 70, my husband’s is 2 May 74 and our son’s is 28 Aug 93.  I really want to improve our life and stop this streak of bad energy and luck!

Use the Ba-Qua from house entrance, and then you do one for each room from the entrance of each room. Your address did not print so send it again and I can answer better.

I was born 6 Feb. 1959 and my, soon to be ex husband was born 25 Sept1962.  I have a daughter from a previous marriage who was born 22 August 1980. His children from a previous marriage were, a girl born 22 March 1984. A girl born 21 August 1985. And a boy born 29 December 1989. We just can’t seem to make things work. We have been together 11 years with nothing but problems. What is it?

Please send me your address number and tell me the shape of your house and what type of street you live on, such as a “t” street, cul-de-sac etc. And  I can help you.

What day (& hour), or sign can I use to find a job? I was born in Cayes-Jacmel, Haiti, W.I. on 23 May 1949 at 8:00 pm. I am an electrical engineer graduated on June 1998 with no job until now, except for a 12 hour-part time job on weekend.

I was born 27 Sept 1954.  My primary house number is 22, with the front door facing North.  My weekend home is number 16, front door facing North East.  I need help with my career.  I’m unhappy and my job is at a stand still.  How would I go about helping and enhancing my career?

Both numbers are a problem.  Add a 3 and 1 to the 22 with clear nail polish.  Add the number 1 to the 16 and your life should improve.

Our son has always had trouble sleeping through the night, and can sometimes fall asleep easily during the day.  His birthday is 21 July 1981.  We are in the planning to build a house later this year.  We have not picked out the lot or building plans yet.  What suggestion would you have for his room (or the home itself) to help this situation?  FYI his room is currently on the East side of our house between the kitchen and a bathroom, one story house, and he will always live with us.                           

Put either an aquarium or a fountain with a light shining on them at all times and soon your son will sleep perfectly.  http://www.artofplacement.com/FengShui/product.htm

Our house number is 11963 which equals 2.  Does 2 stand for divorce?  Do I need to add anything to my address and what difference will it make?  My husband’s birthday is 20 July and mine is 29 April.  What does this tell you as far as a lasting relationship?

2 stands for divorce or loss.  Add the number 6.  Click on this link to find out more about the meanings of numbers and how to fix them,  http://www.artofplacement.com/FengShui/numbers.htm

I was born on 27 September 1977 and my address is 2103 in which the front door is facing the South.  I’ve been single for quite a long time now and I’m interested in starting a love relationship.  I’ve tried putting a fake plant in my Relationship corner as well as a silver heart, a set of candles, 2 vases (lavender and white) with some silk flowers in them, as well as a picture of my prom with myself and my date in it.  I also burn some incense in this corner as well.  What am I possibly doing wrong that I am not finding a partner?

Change the heart from silver to either Red or Pink and you will do fine.

Presently, my husband (born 13 May 1970 and I (born 8 February 1970) are planning to purchase a home that will be finished construction this time next year.  The lot we like has the front door facing South and the back of the home facing North.  I have heard several negative comments regarding this, due to the back yard being cold and without direct sunlight.  However, we like it due to the fact that there is a small stream in the very back corner of the lot with small trees/brush and open space to our left and back left.  Can you offer your advice as to what lot may be beneficial for us?

Have lot with front door facing South and back yard in the North that is good.

I will be opening a store on April 1 this year in a local mall.  I have already picked a location, a small shop of about 900 square feet and painted Pink throughout (even the outside!) by the former tenants.  I would like to repaint the store inside and out a more suitable color for my merchandise which includes sterling silvery jewelry, incense, body oils, body care products and other exotic gift items.  I tend to like earthy looks.  What would you suggest as an appropriate color for walls, entry door, etc.  The door is a single glass door and the front of the store has two full glass windows on each side of the glass door, very suburban/soho looking.  I was born 9 January 1966.  Also, I have heard that placing a mirror near/over the cash register signifies something.  Feng Shui is new to me but it sounds really interesting and I think the principles of Feng Shui will be well suited to my shop to create a comfortable atmosphere for customers.  Any suggestions would be appreciate.  I love your site.

Any earth color of tan, Green, etc., will be fine.

My boyfriend (born at 2:15 p.m. on 14 February 1974) and I (born 8:15 p.m. on 127 February 1975) are currently living in a house (number 16) with both the relationship and Money corner’s missing, laundry and toilet in health area.  I have added plants to all areas, a picture of us in the relationship area and added 1 house number but still relationships suffer and we are constantly sick and tired.  With the absence of Money corner where would you suggest placing an obelisk?  Because of all the problems with this house, we are currently looking for a new house to buy.  Could you please advise.

My 3 year old boy got really ill when he was 1 month old.  Due to how sick he got, he has severe brain damage.  Now our bathroom is in the health position, and I think mine, which is the baby’s room too is out of the Ba-Qua line because my older son’s room and my room is extended out of the line tours the front of the house.  I have a Feng Shui book and I have made some changes in my house.   My birthday is 20 July 1969 and my husband is 5 Sept 1968, my daughter is 7 Sept 1989 and my older son is 9 Jan 1992 and the baby is 25 Nov 1996.  Our house is 14203 SW 153.

My mother (95) who now lives with me has a home that we would like to sell as it has been vacant now for more than 1 year.  We are afraid of problems due to the fact that no one lives there.  What can we do to ensure a quick and prosperous sale this Spring?  The money will be used to pay for her burial expenses and any medical bills that she may incur while in my care.  Her address has changed due to 911 regulations. It is 69 Ridge Road, Chesterville, Maine 04938.

Is it a negative thing to place a large mirror over my bed?

As long as it has no cracks or breaks, it will be okay.

My Auntie is right into Feng Shui and she tells me some helpful things from time to time.  Well, anyway, she has a black gold fish (one with goggly eyes) which she says is lucky or helpful with Feng Shui; it just died, and she is very upset. I don’t know the full Feng Shui theory behind the goldfish but I want to know if I can give her another one or what would be the best thing for me to do for her.

Give another fish quick.

I have read that to place a frog facing outward at the front door is beneficial.  But if the frog is not facing the door, i.e., if he is sitting on the hearth, can he be doing harm?  A friend of mine, a hard worker, has had a very bad year at work and I am trying to understand why. 

No frog is ever doing harm.

I moved in with my husband last July and never seem to feel good any more.  I love my living room as it has good Feng Shui, but the family room is lacking in something. I need help here.

Send me more information about the room, such as, if it has a fireplace, how many doors, etc.  Then I can help you.

I get more from your web site essays, than all the books, even Sarah’s work.  It gets very complicated. Is that necessary?

I am a female fire rooster born 27 Oct 1957. Recently, I moved to a mobile home, #5367.  The most used entrance faces NE.  I have great need of financial abundance.  First sight upon entering is directly into bathroom & mirror. Other door faces SW but is not as convenient to use. 

The door to the bathroom should be closed at all times.

We have a figurine of a turtle, I think it’s a good symbol but it’s a Red one. Is this good or a bad color?  Where do we put him in the best place in our home or in our workshop?  We have already a real (water turtle) one in our home in the North of the living room. Or shall I paint him in another color?

Put him facing the door near the entrance after you enter. The color is fine.

Which corner of a room would I put an indoor water fountain?

Money corner.   http://www.artofplacement.com/FengShui/product.htm

The front of my square-shaped house faces South. You walk up a walkway, take three small steps up to a porch, and turn left to enter my front door. Which means that my door actually faces West. Now, if I place the Ba-Qua in alignment with the front of my house, I enter the career area facing the knowledge and self-cultivation area.  If I place it in alignment with the front entrance, the Ba-Qua only covers the West half of my house, leaving the East half outside of the map entirely. Am I missing something?

You place it in the entrance, and it still covers the whole house.

I want to install a small fishpond at the entrance of my house. Which is the best side – the left or right as you enter the main door?

Either will be okay.

My daughter was born on 13 Dec 1993 at 7:14 a.m. She was diagnosed with a kidney problem when she turned 5 and is still on medication. It looks like she will take these medicines for a while. She is generally a moody person with a lot of whining. How can I improve her personality and her health?

I would add plants to her room.  I would install full spectrum lighting in the house. I would have her eat raw vegetables as often as possible and make sure she spends at least an hour outside.  I am not a Doctor, but this is what I would do. You should talk this over with your Doctor.

Yes, all but the black candles can be used in your corners.

Can a Ba-Qua shift from the home to the office (or a girlfriend’s place)?  If I begin spending more time in my office instead of my home, or bedroom, will my office “setting” from a Feng Shui point of view – begin to influence my life instead of my apartment?  How long should it take before I feel the effects of any changes I make to an environment?

You may Feng Shui all environments that you spend a great deal of time.  You will feel effects almost immediately, then they continue to build.

My husband, born 26 Sept 1958 is a musician “forced” to hold a day job (he dislikes) because of our financial commitments.  What would happen if he were to leave his day job to concentrate on his music?

Looking at his astrology, wait until the end of the summer and he will be able to make that move and be successful.

I have a linen closet at the end of my hallway. Directly facing it on the opposite end is the food closet in the kitchen.  Should I be concerned?  Should I place a mirror on the linen closet door to accentuate the food energy?

That will speed up Sha coming at the food closet.  Hanging a mobile halfway down the hall would be better.

We are having financial troubles.  Our address is 4740 and our birthdays are 1 May 67 and 16 Nov 62.

What is the significance of a Red door in Feng Shui?

Red always attracts positive energy.

I did not know about Feng Shui when I built my home last year and put a narrow, long skylight above my bed, which is very deep.  Recently a Feng Shui consultant told me the skylight is like a coffin.  She suggested that I cover the skylight with a piece of lace, which I have done. The bed cannot go anyplace else in the room.  I am still having a terrible time sleeping. Is there something you can suggest?  Would flutes do the trick?

Hang a clear crystal from the skylight and you will be fine.

For the past 6 months I have been plagued by clutter. I clear out a stack and within a short time, there is more.  Is there any Feng Shui cure that would help me?

Write an affirmation that you are so thankful that your home is clutter free and place it in your Relationship corner in a Red envelope. That should help greatly.

I am currently in the process of seeking a change in my employment. The career I am pursing requires quite a bit of training and certification. What can I do in my knowledge corner to help me learn, understand, absorb and retain all the information I will need to learn? My computer is in my Knowledge corer. Is this good?  I have a plant and the corner is right next to a sliding glass door.

The set up is good that you describe if you hang a crystal in the middle of the glass sliding door.  Hang a cone in the corner with the wide end hanging down.

My DOB is 22 Aug 1964 and my husband’s DOB is 17 July 1962.  Our house number is 1111.  I have added a “1” and a “3” in clear nail polish.  Our front door faces East. In the last 12 years that we have lived in this house, we have had too many problems to count. We decided to leave but had problems selling this house and have no money to buy another.  We need to leave by summertime.  What occupation would I be best suited for and how could I go about getting some money quickly (by summer).

You would be good selling anything you believe in. I would move as soon as possible.

Can you tell me the best way to insure a happy and long relationship with my fiancé’? I am also thinking about changing jobs to help my career and finances.

Put a picture of the two of you together in your Relationship corner.  Put a plant with coins in your Money corner.

I live in South Africa and would like to know if the principles are applied exactly as in the Northern Hemisphere. I have read that the Ba-Qua is placed with the front door placed at the bottom of the octagon (N).  I this true for houses in the Southern Hemisphere.  The front door faces almost due South.

Reverse the Ba-Qua for the Southern Hemisphere.

I live in Australia and we are about to move into a new office location. It will be on level 4, 54 Jephson Street. My area will not be an enclosed office – it will have 3 walls only – one with a small window, and one incorporates a cement pillar. It is located towards the Western end of the floor and is the accounts department.  Where should I place my desk (L-shaped) to bring me financial benefit and less stress.  I also wanted to paint one of the walls as a feature in a Plum or Blue colour – is this a reasonable thing to do?

Put your desk on the wall with you sitting facing out from behind your desk towards the center of the room with the window to the side of you.  The paint colors are fine.

I live in an apt bldg and when entering the front door, immediately to the right is a blank White  wall, and in front of the entrance is a closet door that gets stuck.  The only way into the apt is to turn left. My address is 1727, apt 17.  My DOB is 30 Sept. 1960.

Is the house number of 33 a good one?  If not, how do I fix it?

It is a number for good spiritual ritual help.

I have a large wood burning stove smack dab in the middle of my living/dining room.  It is placed on a brick base and cuts the rooms into two.  It is visible when you open the front door.  I think it is way too much fire for my relaxing space – is this correct and how do I compensate?

Put plants on the left and right of the stove – either real or fake.

My boyfriend and I will be moving into our new home, which is street number 98 in April.  he house faces SSE.  Just when we think things are getting better we seem to run into either financial or health problems or both. Other problems are our attempts to start a family, my finishing my degree and my boyfriend’s career advancement.

Put plants in the corners. Install a Ba-Qua mirror o over the outside of the entrance door.

Are there any other solutions that I can try for beams overhead? I have exposed beams in my house and my main areas of concern are over my desk in my home office, over a couch in my living room, and through the center of my (as yet, unbuilt) kitchen. I’m just not too fond of the idea of hanging bamboo flutes or closing up the ceiling for aesthetic reasons.

Draw two arrows facing up at 45 degree angles – one at each end of your beams about 1 foot from each end with clear nail polish.

How is color incorporated into Feng Shui?

Color is used to move Chi in different ways.

My bedroom is a basic rectangle.  My door is on the inner most left corner.  Does the door fall on the “New Knowledge” section of the Ba-Qua or do I turn the Ba-Qua so that the door falls in the “Career” section?

Do not turn the Ba-Qua.  It is perfect with the New Knowledge corner in its rightful place.

Since we found out that my mother in law had cancer, my husband and I and our daughter have moved in with my in laws. (March 99)  Our household has been a battlefield since that day.  There are lots of windows throughout the living room.  We have healthy tall Green plants in all corners.  Any suggestions for better harmony?

Hang chimes from the overhang in front of each window.  If you have any fireplaces or stoves, put plants on both sides.

The front door of my house is perpendicular to the front of the house. Which way do I orient the Ba-Qua?

You begin the Ba-Qua from the entrance door.

My wife has asked for a separation. I still love her and feel heart broken. We have two children.  Our address is 301 (it is an apt.), and the main building address is 11000.  How can I build back what I once had? We have been together for 12 years.

Add a “3” and “1” to our address.  Things never stay the same in life.  Trust that everything is always happening for the highest good.   Click on this link to find out more about the meanings of numbers and how to fix them,  http://www.artofplacement.com/FengShui/numbers.htm

My DOB is 30 April 1951.  I have Attention Deficit Disorder. The past few years have brought increasing confusion, disorganization, and difficulty with memory.  My room stays a disorganized mess.  I have an office pace downstairs that stays a mess. Any ideas?

Hang a cone in your New Knowledge Corner. Divide your room in four sections. Give attention to your Money corner first, then your Relationship corner going in a clockwise manner. If you take care of your corners, they will take care of you.

My husband and I have been married 27 years.  We were both born on 19 July 1948.  Our house number is 105 and faces West.  Our front door is on the SE corner.  For the past two or three years, my husband has become increasingly temperamental, angry and cynical.  What can I do in our home to help even out and calm his temper?

Put a picture of both of you in the Relationship corner.  Hang a Pink heart.

My husband (20 June 1959) and myself (17 May 1953) have just moved in a Southerly direction to a new home. Our front door faces North, and I have painted this door Blue.

Put a circle around the number “2” in address going around in a clockwise direction with clear nail polish.    Click on this link to find out more about the meanings of numbers and how to fix them,  http://www.artofplacement.com/FengShui/numbers.htm

Since my husband and I have moved into our house, I do not like the setup of our bedroom – it does not feel right.  Our house # is 147 with the main entrance facing North and the door is Red.  The bedroom is along the East side of the house. It is Green, Yellow and Blue.  Our bed is along the West wall facing East and is right next to the doorway.  I also have a mirror on my bureau that is along the South wall and there are 2 windows along the East wall and one along the North wall.  There is also a ceiling fan.  How can we increase the positive energy of the room?

Put Red dots on the top of ceiling fan blade paddles.  Make sure fan is moving in a clockwise manner from the perspective of looking down from the roof.

I want to get married to my boyfriend of four years and be happy. My DOB is 5 May 1967 and his is 30 June 1961.  My relationship area is in my kitchen. I have a large mirror with a Gold (not Yellow) frame behind the stove, a medium sized crystal in the window above the sink, a crystal between the sink and stove and a hanging plant between the stove and refrigerator. Another plant is between the refrigerator and a cabinet.  I light one Red and one White glass-enclosed candle on the counter.  I moved the trash can out of that area. I put a picture of a loving couple on the wall in a Red frame with sea shells all around it. 

Hang a Pink heart in your Relationship corner. Place a picture of the two of you in your Relationship corner.

I have heard of painting a pot Gold in color and planting a plant in it – somewhere under the pot, money should be placed – in direct contact with the soil?  Under the pot?  How much?  This is to help finances grow.

Eight single dollars will be fine.

My fiancé’s DOB is 23 April 1962 and mine is 31 Dec 1950.  He lives in the States and I am trying to get down there so we can marry.  We seem to have a lot of walls to tear down.  My address is 59, unit 59.  Will we end up together and married this year and will the person I leave behind be safe?  I am not aware of the corners (wealth, relationship) but am very interested in it.

Put an affirmation in the far left-hand corner from your entrance which is your Relationship corner or things you value.  Write how thankful you are that the legal problems are solved.  Order an Obelisk from Wind and Water and place it there also. You can order from our website at www.artofplacement.com/products or by calling us at 520-284-2961

My apartment street address is 35.  My fiancé’s DOB is 27 March 1978 and mine is 28 March 1979 at 2:43a.m.  We would like to buy a house, but don’t have a down payment or enough credit to get a good sized loan.  I have put Purple objects in the Money corner of the apartment and have a cat for a lively animal.  Due to landlord rules, we cannot have a dog.  What should we do to be able to buy a house?
