Dear Chloe Lin,

1. Currently, it is difficult to imagine how much threat (or any) with regards to the cul de sac.

2. Appreciate if you can draw a sketch of your house in relation to the cul de sac:

2.1. In particular, the location of the main entrance door.

2.2. Profile of the curve of cul de sac towards your house.

2.3. The rough distance between the cul de sac to your home.

3. One must understand that internal enhancements e.g. putting a basket inside the house etc.. to `catch' wealth should not be the first move - especially if the house is under an external threat.

4. Here, it is best to diagnose whether there is a leak somewhere. A primary way of doing this is FIRST fix the LEAK.

5. Frankly, imagine, we are now in a small boat. The boat has a small leak on it's side. It is not prudent to ignore this leak and concentrate on `enhancements'.

6. The boat will ultimately sink. I am saying your house may have this situation. But, let's look at it in a more scientific method.

7. If one can plug the leak, this would be a long term solution. Than e.g. paying homage to corners in a home.

8. On your own, this is best that you can do, first and urgently.

9. Perhaps, I would like to touch on how we trouble-shoot problems if any:-

Again, this calls for a pragmatic approach in such a situation:-

10. What happens if one stays in a house and faced problem?

Normally, on a professional level, the Ba Zi of each family member is looked at. In particular, the current Luck Pillars.

If the breadwinner's current Luck Pillars is unfavourable, the advise given is to apply his/her favourable elements to help the breadwinner.

On the other hand the house birth chart and environment is looked at.

11. There are two major senarios here:

11.1 The breadwinner's Ba Zi has clashes in his current period Luck Pillars. And the house has major leaks.

This spells much `worse' trouble. And to fix the leak, both breadwinner's personal self and the house need to be fixed.

11.2 The breadwinner's current Luck Pillars period is auspicious. While the house still has a major leak.

12. From the above, you can see, that it is if one uses such tools properly, one can `scientifically' trouble-shoot to see what went `wrong'.

And the key success factor is to fix as many `major' leaks or to reduce, them where possible.

13. Many of us instead, `look the other way'. Instead of fixing leak(s), we instead pay homage to corners. Which unfortunately yield very little results. And will still ultimately sink. This is unfortunately, a vicious cycle of not knowing what `hit us' or went truly wrong.

Warmest Regards,
Cecil
