Cats and Lottery

A few days ago, I have done a "blind" cat adoption, taking over a cat from my kid's classmate without seeing the cat first. The cat was adopted from an animal shelter and it does not work out because of the new owner is allergic to cats.

I thought the cat must be a kitten because it was adopted by a little girl.

When the cat is delivered to my door, I was dumbfounded that it is a huge 3-years old black cat that is great for Halloween or Friday the 13th movie.

This black cat is well-behaved and seems to be well "cultured". It roams around the house without scratching anything. But it is hungry for human affection and likes to be petted.

I want to see if this cat can sense the good qi or energy areas of my house.

It likes to sleep under the couch inside my porch even it is hot there. That area used to have water star 8 during Period 7 and mountain star 8 in Period 8.

It likes to stick around my altar area. I can feel good and clean qi there. It does one thing that drives me nuts--- it drinks from the tiny cups of water that are offering to my earth-god. It does not drink from her own water bowl.

Earth-god is the first line of defense for each household. He blocks off unwelcome entities and brings you some wealth. You don't want to piss him off.

But I can sense my earth-god just shakes his head without being offended. This cat probably will go to heaven if I send it back to the animal shelter. So earth-god just takes it easy.

Earth-gods are normally promoted from souls of righteous and pious people. So they are pretty conscious and understand human sufferings.

The compromise is refilling earth-god's water cups more often and treats the cat as the representative of earth-god to drink the water.

I bought a lottery ticket the same day the cat moved in. It hits the first number out of the six.

"Stupid me, I should have adopted 6 cats. Each cat hits one number. I still come out ahead with the first prize minus $900 for adoption fees." I said to myself.

Well, now you may want to go to an animal shelter and adopt 6 cats. And don't forget to buy a lottery ticket!

Feng Shui Anything

A few years ago, many of us laughed our heads off when we saw the "Feng Shui haircut" in Penn & Teller's TV series "Bullshit".

Well, you have not seen the real head-turner yet.

Ms. Yang-lan, a TV personality in China, has teamed up with a clothing manufacturer and developed an underwear line using "Feng Shui" as the brand name. The picture here is the cover of a magazine pushing the FS undies.

Here is the headline:

"Yang-lan highly recommends Feng Shui Underwear.
Wearing Feng Shui Underwear wil turn you into a rich woman"

It does not specify if a man wears the FS undies will turn him into a rich woman or free sex-change operation is included.

Feng Shui undies may be an extreme case of marginalizing Feng Shui. But the damages to legitimate Feng Shui has been done by these "Feng Shui Anything" marketeers. They promise anything you want-- health, wealth, relationship, academic, career.... ., but deliver little.

You can see the "damages" by simply going to bookstores like "Borders" or "Barnes and Noble". A few years ago, there were 2+ more shelves devoted to Feng Shui books. Now it is less than half of a shelf.

Well, do you want to buy a Feng Shui Magic Wand? Simply make a wish, raise the wand and viola, get whatever you want without leaving your bed to attend any Feng Shui seminars.

"It's a bird! It's a plane! No, it's ........"

Some people think Feng Shui master is a superman. They expect him/her to solve most if not all their problems.

Sometimes people think that a Feng Shui master is God or at least has a direct phone line to God. They ask him/ her to enhance their wealth through Feng Shui remedies, solve their relationship problems, children's academic problems, job-seeking, health problems or even weight-loss.

If you have an Asia-based email address, you probably have received tons of "Feng Shui for Anything Seminar" email ads. It brags about a fast-talking Feng Shui master can teach you to do anything with Feng Shui-- for power, wealth, relationship......

Well, have you ever wondered why the world's richest person is not a Feng Shui master?

While everything may somehow related to Feng Shui, but using Feng Shui to fix or enhance every thing may not be the most cost-effective way.

You can walk to Rome or fly to Rome. Feng Shui is good for problems that are directly related to your residence or properties. Indirect problems should be handled by professionals in the special areas concerned.

If you have money problem, go find a job or a financial planner or a loan officer. Money won't fall from sky into your hands if you sit on your ass and do nothing. I know a guy who has 2 water dragons and three 5-ghost-carry-money setups and still having money problem-- because he just sits and waits.

If you have relationship problem, go see a family counselor or Dr. Phil.

If you were chronically sick and the problem is not Feng Shui related, go see a health professional.

Feng Shui practitioners should not masquerade as financial planners, Abbey, motivational talkers, medical doctors or the like. Elevating Feng Shui as a magic bullet or answer to every problem in life will hurt the discipline in the long run. It heightens people's expectation on Feng Shui which is more than likely, resulting in frustration.

Feng Shui is not the master-key or solution to all the worldly problems or it would have been the compulsory requirement for graduation for all the universities.

The basic premise of Feng Shui is to live in harmony with nature. It is not a church or temple for you to plea for wealth, power, relationship .......

Enhancing your wealth luck with the right pet

My kid's classmate has adopted a cat from the local Animal Humane Society a few days ago. She found that some of her family members are allergic to cat. So the poor cat ends up at our doorstep.

I take in this cat because cat is my wealth element.

In 4-Pillars of Destiny, the 5-elements (metal, water, wood, fire and earth) are represented by 12 animals. What you control is your wealth (or wife for male). My day-master is metal, so wood is my wealth. Cat belongs to the wood element category, so cat represents my wealth.

By taking care of a cat, hopefully, also take care of the well-being of my wealth.

To find out which animal is good for you in terms of wealth, you need to find out your day-master element first. Simply go to:

http://www.kenlaifengshui.com

Click on the 4P Calculator link and punch in your birth day and click on the "COMPUTE" button. You will see a table with 4 columns: year, month, day and hour.

Check the upper row of the day column, you will see one of the 5 elements (wood, water and etc.). That element is your day-master element.

Here are the corresponding pets that you may have to enhance your wealth luck:

For metal day-masters: (wood element is wealth)
Pets: Tiger, cougar, bear, cat and rabbit

For water day-masters: (fire element is wealth)
Pets: Snakes, reptiles, turtles and horses

For wood day-masters: (earth element is wealth)
Pets: goat, dog, dragon (you can use a deer or giraffe) and cow

For fire day-masters: (metal element is wealth)
Pets: chicken, birds, and monkey

For earth day-masters: (water element is wealth)
Pets: mouse (ferrets, guinea pig, rodent type) and pig

HOWEVER, if you really want to find out the exact pet, you need to figure out if your day-master is strong or weak. You may want to take my "4-Pillars Boot-camp" video correspondence course to figure it out (sorry for the plug, I need money to pay for vet and cat food!).

"Oh NO! I've killed Grand Duke!"

I was in Mexico City teaching "Daoist Talismans for Feng Shui and Blessing". A student told me that he had accidentally killed a Chihuahua rat in his backyard in last February. That rat had lived there for over two years.

After the "accident", his family business slows down, has problems getting paid by clients, many electronic items gone bad suddenly, even water-supply shut down, has more arguments with spouse and seems to hit the wall everywhere.

This students thinks he had killed "Grand Duke" because the current animal sign of the year is "rat". He had made offerings to the soul of the dead Chihuahua rat and did house-cleansing. He has also purchased a pet mouse and hugs it everyday.

However, things still have not improved much.

So during the talisman class, I have added a special "Divine Grand Duke Talisman" for this class. It can appease Grand Duke after you have violated him.

In addition, I have given him the name of Grand Duke's mother, Dou Lu. So that he can also appeal to Grand Duke's mother by writing a talisman to her. According to Daoist mythology, 60 Grand Dukes are considered as the stars in heaven. Dou Lu is the mother of all the constellations (stars). She has four heads and 8 arms.

A student had joked that next time when she writes a talisman to "Grand Duke", she will put c.c. to his (GD) mother!

XKDG Date-Selection in an hour.. or how much you can charge

XKDG is only one of the numerous methods presented in the course. You can check the following link for course descriptions:

If you order by June 15, 2008, all the course fee will be donated to China earthquake victims via Red Cross in your honor. You will get an acknowledgment card from Red Cross.

How much you can charge for XKDG date-selection? Here is the price-list of the Hong Kong Feng Shui master that I wrote in last post:
