东华门 donghuamen Entrance at the East
The Ming emperors stayed in the 乾清宫 Qian Ching Gong as the Qian 乾 Gua is the gua of the King, father, yang and the master. Whereas, the queen resided in the 坤宁宫 Kun Ning Gong as Kun 坤 is the Gua for the Queen, mother, yin or the lady master. The building in between the two main buildings is the Jiao Tai Palace 交泰殿 which mean the intersection between the yin female and the yang male in I Ching which symbolizes prosperity in the future generations of the emperor. The 交泰卦 Jiao Tai Gua in 64 gua I-Ching is Kun Gua on top of the Qian Gua thus, you could notice the only picture with phoenix on top of the dragon in is the Jiao Tai Palace 交泰殿. The dragon represents the King and Phoenix 鳳 is the Queen. Therefore dragon should be on the top of the phoenix to show the superb status of the King. But, you could see the only picture in the Forbidden City with Dragon 龙 below the Phoenix 鳳 is in the Jiao Tai Palace 交泰殿.
There are 6 palaces 东西六宫 each beside the Kun Ning Gong 坤宁宫 which means 六六大顺 smoothness without any obstacle. The palaces are the palaces for the high ranking mistresses of the emperor. Their arrangements are six on each side of the Kun Ning Gong 坤宁宫 is also according to the I-Ching Kun Gua, 3 broken line which forms the 6 shorter lines.
The ancient coin is circular with a square hole in the middle represents the heaven or the sky is surrounding the Earth. This is because according to the bagua, shape for the Qian Gua which is North West sector of the bagua is circular and the shape for the gold is circular but the shape of the Kun Gua is square. Thus, the shape of the Temple of Heaven天壇 is circular in shape.
城墙四面都有门,南有午门,北有神武门,东有东华门,西有西华门. 所有的门都是9×9 81颗门钉, 因为9是最大数目, 但唯独东华门是9×8 72颗门钉因为东方属木, 不可让木来克土呀! 因此东华门的地位较小.
内 廷主要三宫有乾清宫、交泰殿和坤宁宫. 明朝皇帝都住在乾清宫因为乾卦为最重要的男主人卦位, 乾清宫象徵天, 而坤宁宫象徵地, 乾清宫比太和殿稍微小. 乾为天, 天为阳, 坤为地,地为阴, 坤宁宫为明朝皇后的住所. 交泰殿为阴阳二气交会处. 易经里的泰卦是乾下坤上, 所以在交泰殿可以看到紫禁城内唯一的鳳上龙下的图象, 代表着阴阳二气交会而子孫滿堂.
内廷主要三宫乾清宫、交泰殿和坤宁宫的两旁为东西六宫, 有六六大顺之义, 也是易经里的坤卦(三畫卦). 后天八卦的震卦为长子的方位, 所以太子是住在东方的震卦.
紫 禁城的南方为天或易经里的乾卦, 因此有天安门和天壇, 天壇是圆形的因为圆形代表天. 紫禁城的北方为地或易经里的坤卦, 因此有地壇, 地壇是方形的因为方形代表地. 古代铜钱是圆形而中间有方形的洞代表着天包圍着地呀! 紫禁城的东方为日或易经里的离卦, 因此有日壇. 东方为太陽升出的地方. 紫禁城的西方为月或易经里的坎卦, 因此有月壇. 这都是跟据易经里的前天八卦所造呀!

“The higher the ceiling, the better is the capability to capture wealth as what has been illustrated in the Pavilion Kuala Lumpur. It is also the reason why all the bungalows of the rich men are built with high ceiling.” You can notice that the ceiling of the mansion is high. When a ceiling is build high, the air in the house is relatively cooler and more comfortable naturally. Thus, we say feng shui is about natural environment and we will live comfortably if you follow what the nature wants us to be.
3. As I mentioned in my book “How to enhance your wealth with feng shui?” http://www.penangfengshui.com/index.php?pages=info_book_01 page 38. “If the buildings at the back of your building is higher than yours is good. You have the support 靠山 kao shan. This is because turtle is a very slow and quiet reptile. If at the back of your house, there is a quiet, firm and tall building, you will always get the help that you need. But, if there is a market or a noisy commercial area at the back of your house, you will not have the help that you require. It will be even better if there is a tall and majestic hill behind your house. You can put a decorative item with the shape of turtle at the back of your house to enhance the opportunity of obtaining assistance.” The back of the mansion was made higher than the front which has better black turtle 玄武.




The Tang Plaza or the Marriott Hotel in the Orchid Road is with the shape of bagua and you can actually see there are lots of bagua surrounding the building. There are bagua on the floor, the ceiling and even the entrance. It is a way to avoid any unwanted or inauspicious qi. Even though the owner of the property was in fact a Christian.
Opposite the main entrance of the Marriott Hotel, there is a triangle pillar and the shape of triangle is actually the shape of the fire element as the shape of the fire is triangle. Thus, in order to eliminate the fire from the opposite building, there are trees to block it.
Please refer to my previous post if you wish to read more about my post about the feng shui of Singapore http://penangfengshui.blogspot.com/2010/07/feng-shui-of-singapore-part-1.html
I must say for someone like me who is not familiar with the World Soccer Teams to predict the result of the World Cup 2010 with the limited knowledge I have, it cannot be accurate. It was amazing as I predicted the result on 7 June 2010 solely with my feng shui knowledge as per my previous post http://penangfengshui.blogspot.com/2010/07/my-prediction-on-world-cup-2010-has.html
I always against the idea of using my knowledge of feng shui in gambling. In fact, I am not keen in gambling and honestly it is not easy to apply the theory of feng shui for gambling purposes, but I have to say that theory of feng shui is superb in our daily life and we just cannot ignore it. Furthermore, I am not familiar with soccer.
It is my pleasure to visit Singapore again to feel the power of water there. In feng shui, we said 山管人丁水管财 Hill controls the people and water governs the wealth. Basically, Singapore is located on a piece of flat land and you can hardly see any hill there, thus, Singapore has to depend heavily on its water as there is no hill to be depended on. The Singapore Government has done an excellent in clearing the Singapore River as it is one of the ‘main doors’ of Singapore. The location of the Merlion which is the combination of a lion head and the body of fish at the ‘main door’ of Singapore is able to 挡煞 block the undesired qi from entering the country. In fact, I brought back a small Merlion and placed it at the entrance of my main door facing the front to help me to prevent any unwanted qi.
The river bank of the Singapore River has been adequately maintained. Penang Government is attempting to do so to clear the rivers of Penang and the move should be highly supported and appreciated. Nevertheless, the cooperation of all Penangites is very much required. At least, we should not throw the rubbish into the river.

There are a lot of valuable knowledge can be obtained from the bagua. The bagua has correspondences in astronomy, astrology, geography, geomancy, anatomy, the family, and elsewhere. The no 5 is the earth (yellow) which represents the piece of land of China 中国大陆 which was believed to be located at the centre of the world. The yellow color used to be the official color for the emperor. In the olden day’s 封建時代, normal citizens were not allowed to use the color except the King. It was believe that the whole piece of land was belonged to a person solely i.e. the King.

If you define the number 8 as Najib who is ruling, then number 5 is Mahathir who used to be very power. The number 5 star is not in power presently 失令星. Mahathir is not in control now and in order to exercise his influence, he has to make a lot of noise in order to obtain the attention of others. Thus, wherever number 5 star appears in a place, it will create trouble to obtain the attention of others. This year, the number 5 star is at the South West. Brazil which is at the South West is hit by very serious flood now http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/2010_northeastern_Brazil_floods.

For those who consulted me, I have taught them to place 安忍水 at the South West and North East of their house.
As a matter of fact, bagua is a valuable product from I-Ching 易经, one of the great recovery of men. It is in fact like a 无字天书 (a book from the heaven that cannot be explained by words). The word I易 is in fact a combination of the Sun 日and the Moon 月. It is a book about the philosophy of change as our Earth does not stop revolving; the magnetic energy of the Earth will not be the same all the time. Moreover, the gravitational force pull between the Earth and the Moon, Sun and other planets will keep on changing all the time, thus there will not be a place that will have permanent auspicious feng shui all the time. If it is not the case, then China would still be ruled by the Ming or Ching Dynasty as the emperor would have the best feng shui master to study the feng shui of his palace.
The I-Ching 易经 is a scientific book and many of the scientific theories and concepts today are actually in-line with the theory of the I-Ching 易经 even though I-Ching 易经 existed in this world approximate 6000 years ago. The Bagua (Chinese: 八卦; literally “eight symbols”) are eight diagrams used to represent a range of interrelated concepts. Each consists of three lines, each either “broken” or “unbroken,” representing a yin line or a yang line, respectively. Yin is referring to the negative energy and the yang is the positive energy. Bagua is the result of the ancient Chinese binary system. Each of the Gua is consists of three little Yao symbols, which is equivalent to a bit in today’s binary language. Each Yao (section) represents either Yin (0), female or Yang (1), male force of nature. Yin (0), female, is two short little hyphens with a gap in between. Yang, male, is one continuous hyphen-like line. Use some graphic imagination to help you remember the female and male symbols or you can fashionably call them “zero (Yin)” and “one (Yang)”. Due to their tripartite structure, they are often referred to as “trigrams” in English.
