Dear Anon,

1. For the Eight House Template, you should consider three main uses of it:

1.1 To determine how suitable are you to the house.

If the death or disaster line flows thru the main entrance door, this means that the house is under Eight House Theory, not suitable to you.

1.2 Check what is the intangible force affecting your bedroom.

1.3 Especially at work, this theory provides a guide as to the best facing direction.

The above are the main uses of the Eight House Theory. Other than that it has `severe' limitations.

It cannot be used as a `cure' as it is not linked to the Five Element Concepts unlike the Flying Star which using the Five Elements concept to check for imbalances in a sector and this is where, it can be used to understand and neutralise the `problem'.

However, the Flying Star is not a "cure all". It is used to map out the birth chart of a house. If a house has been found to be very auspicious, it does not mean that it is suited to everyone. Here, the Eight House Theory is used to see if there is a `fit' between the house and the person.

Pillars of Destiny, especially the element and its strength e.g. a Strong Fire person is further used inconjunction with the Flying Star to further fine tune "a cure".

Again, the above cannot live in isolation. Shapes and Form School of Feng Shui has to be used especially to do an environmental scanning such as inauspicious to have a water position behind the house.

1.4 The Eight Associations or Life Aspirations is based on the interpretation of each Gua and their significance.

This is really considered `kindergarden' Feng Shui.

It is meant to highlight the relationship of each sector.

If we look closely at the Eight House Theory, it is personalised to an individual even if it takes into account a person's Year of birth chart.

However, the Eight Associations has no merits because it is generally applied to every single person without personalization. Therefore, if one insists on using it, should do so after one has completed other Feng Shui audits using Flying Star, Eight House etc... Then if one is too free or nothing better to do, use the Eight Associations.

We have shown the Eight Associations on the free Eight House report as it is still a valid Feng Shui interpretation of the Gua numbers but also added a caution on the report.

Many people in the West, found that it is so simple to draw a trigram with the Eight Associations and within a short while start a practise using the Eight Associations or close to it the Fixed Template method. This gives Feng Shui a bad name.

Warmest Regards,
Cecil
