Dear Tammy,

1. Thank you for your e-mail.

2. In Chapter 10, Page 89, I have two sets of illustrations.

3. In the first set (row) of illustration, I mentioned that it is acceptable to have a plot of land in the shape of a specific trapezoid.

4. In which, I drawn the illustration of the front of the trapezoid (narrower at the frontage but wider at the back).

5. In the next illustration, I also showed another trapezoid, but in this situation, the frontage of this trapezoid is wider than the back.

6. Therefore, one should take note that:

6.1 The term used is `acceptable' but not necessarily ideal situation.

This suggests that if one already has such a plot of land proper advise on layout based on Feng Shui can be used to neutralise such a situation.

6.2 Perhaps the book you read did not distinguish where is the frontage of the trapezoid. Or simply give a very general statement.

6.3 If one looks carefully at these two illustrations under this page, one can find an arrow for each shape. This arrow symbolises the frontage of the plot of land.

6.4 And by now, you would have found that it does make a difference (in real life situations) where the frontage is in relation to e.g. the trapezoid.

In my opinion, this is as common as saying that SW = romance sector for everyone.

It is buying a car but realising that the steering wheel is at the boot of the car.

The idea here is that a little knowledge is a dangerious thing.

Warmest Regards,
Cecil
