Hi,

It is very easy to get confused as to what is sha or pointed arrows that are `aimed' at a house.

The best way to look at `pointed arrows' is to ask the following questions?

1. Is the pointed arrow aimed at my main door?

2. Is it aimed at any of my windows?

3. One last question is: Is my main door `hidden' from the gate and not directly facing a gate or path?

In general, if your answers to the above question is No, then, there is little to worry about in terms of `poision arrows' aimed towards the house.

As you can see, the main entrance door and the windows need to be `protected' from poison arrows.

What about metal or any flag poles?

Symbolically, any flag pole or tall metal or wood structure represents a thin tall object and if you look at it can act like a `knife' slicing thru the home.

Here, the question is: Is the thin tall object slicing thru any part of my main entrance door or windows i.e. perpendicular or tangent to it.

If your answer is No, then it does not affect your home.

Hong Kong FS Masters like to use a fish tank. For example, if the flag pole or a lamp post is outside the window i.e. when you look out of the window of your home and see a lamp post, the fish tank is said to counter act this sha.

For the main entrance door, some resort to:

1. tilting the main door to one of the good auspicious locations if this is possible.

I must caution here to you need an expert Feng Shui Practioner to help u do it.

2. Use a semi-circular carpet radiating outwards outside the entrance door. Better still if you have something like a `sun' and its rays, let this half shaped `sun rays' radiate outwards.

3. If there are steps leading up to the main entrance, you can use semi-circular steps radiating outwards.

The above concepts 2 and 3 is similiar to the "Ming Tang" or a semi-cicular pool found in some buildings to radiate outwards to `protect' the front of the house.

4. Other `cures' include using the First Heaven Sequence Mirror Ba Gua for example.

5. More offensive `weapons' include:

- Placing a cannon on a shelf pointing out of a window. For example, some purchase a replica of a ships cannon. These can be found in toy stores etc...

6. Others use two statutes of lion or fu fu dogs outside (on each side of their main entrance doors).

Usually, this is common e.g. in eating establishments or if you been to a Hong Kong Shanghai Bank (HSBC) they usually have two huge lion statutes on each side of their main entrance buildings.

Here, you need advise of a FS practioner to place these things.

Warmest Regards,
Cecil
