Are you Feng Shui Master or Master of Feng Shui?
I think I would aspire to be the latter. I feel that the title "Feng Shui Master" has unfortunately been abused and is associated with some negative connotations. To address myself as a Feng Shui Master somehowmakes me uneasy. It is akin to telling people that I am an property or insurance agent. Nothing wrong with being a agent but somehow it does create some form of impression to people who hear this. (In Singapore context, the term agent does not gel well with the clean image of its industry). The next thing you know is that people start to look at you differently. Why such reaction? Who is the culprit who caused this stereotype? It must be the self-proclaimed MASTER.
Being able to master a subject takes great effort, passion and commitment. It is a life-long learning journey. As a master of any subject, it implies that one has very intimate knowledge of his field. He is a T-shape person with breadth and depth. He knows his subject inside out and is able to translate profundity to layman language. He never fails to answer all your questions and is eager to share more on his findings. He helps you with sincerity and is resolved to see you through the problem. Most importantly, he learns and uses feng shui for a good cause and is not purely driven by money.
So, have you ever wondered what is in the DNA or bazi component of a good feng shui master? Or rather, what takes to be a feng shui practitioner? Can anyone become one? Or is this art only for the select ones? Who has the affinity to learn feng shui and other form of chinese metaphysics?
My personal take is that everyone can learn feng shui but not all can excel in this field. Perseverance and passion are the 2 basic key success factors. But to become a Master of Feng Shui, the bazi (based on what I gather) usually consists some or all of the following traits:
1. Either good Support stars or Output stars. Best if they are your Useful God or Yong Shen. In Chinese, there is a saying "伤官佩印，能学术数。" It means that Output star accompanied by Support star in the chart has the quality to learn the art.
2. Tai Ji Nobleman Star (太极贵人)
3. Heaven Doctor Star (天医星)
4. Water Day Master - coincidentally, the 3 teachers that I have studied from are either Ren or Gui water. Strong or weak? Does not matter.
For those who wants to know if you can consider a career switch to become a Feng Shui or Bazi Consultant, do check if you have some of the above.
How to locate item 2 and 3 in your bazi? You can email me at destinyasia@hotmail.com. I will give you the formula.
Cheers!

Taking Stock
Phew, so much happenings for the past 2 weeks. Alot of things on the head. Yes, I think I have a bit of overdose on Xie Zi Fa thingy although I must say I like it. Blogging is really wonderful. One of the benefits is to have fruitful interactions with the like-minded. I also make new friends through this platform.
Xie Zi Fa has triggered a fair bit of hype recently. I visited some blogs and enthusiasts have shared alot of insights into this amazing art. Well, I learnt about this thing from my teacher known as the String-theory. Yes, there is this M-theory too. I really respected our ancestors alot. Before such theories were founded by western scientists not too long ago, our great great grand fathers have talked about this 11 dimensions thingy and how it was applied in feng shui to perform miracles. OMG, I thought I only knew 3-D and the most 4-D. How on earth can we live in a 11-dimensional world and not knowing it? How to apply feng shui in 11 dimension? One yao equals one dimension. A hexagram has only 6 yaos. And is this a rocket feng shui science?....oops sorry am I touching on sacred cow? Better stop here.
A friend of mine also emailed me last week and we have great discussions on the topic. We also discussed about fighting the San Sha and I must take this opportunity to thank him for sharing the method and his experience. I learnt that not only we can fight San Sha but also 5 Yellow and Sui Po. My concern is what if we fight and lose to this merciless energy? The payback is huge. I think I prefer to be less adventurous in this instance. I cannot afford to lose a family.
Oh ya, I read somewhere that says that if you are a doctor and makes mistake, you kill a person. But if you are a irresponsible feng shui master, you can kill a family. To illustrate, in one of Zeng Zi Nan's real cases, there was this old man whose late parents were buried on inauspicious site selected by half-baked master. What happened was that, his other 3 brothers all later contracted stomache cancer. 2 younger brothers died during surgery and the other one had half of the stomache removed. This old man also later contracted the cancer at the age of 70. All the major hospitals diagnosed that the cancerous cell had multiplied and spread to other organs. The old man was told that he was too old to go for any treatment and in fact awaiting death was the only option.
The grandson then approached Zeng for his help. What Zeng did was to unearth all the buried and relocate them to a good spot using his XZF. Zeng then wrote down in a piece of paper stating that "the grandfather would fully recover without any intrusive treatment within 100 days". It seems that Zeng was so confident about his XZF that he always issued guarantee letter after every job. He would also publicly announced few weeks in advance the phenomenon that one would see during the time of burial. This prediction is done using yet another amazing art known as the San Yuan Qi Men Dun Jia Date Selection Method. One example was for the case of former Taiwanese Vice President. The phenomenon was usually natural, for example, you will see the appearance of rainbow and hundreds of birds flying over the site at that precise moment the burial takes place. OMG, is he a living deity?
Miraculously within 10 days, the symptoms of the cancer started to disappear just by him taking normal gastric medicine. The old man later lived healthily to 80 plus.
This is one of the many thousands of cases done by Zeng. Unfortunately, he only passed the knowledge to his son. I heard he did have students but most of them did not outlive Zeng. Even if one of them is still around, he/she has taken an oath not to teach or publicise. Nevertheless, it seems that there are people who claim that they are using XZF although I am not sure how far does it deviate from the original one.
One very famous young master has told the media that he ever spent $40,000 Euros to get a formula. I heard it is XZF but it is the original stuff that has existed 1,700 years and was passed down by Yang Gong? I do not have the answer. But if it is really the XZF that can help people to end their sufferings, $40k Euros is cheap. I believe the return on investment will also be within 100 days.

Subsidiaries of Xie Zi Fa
.
Xie Zi Fa was formerly known as San Yuan Di Li.
In the early years, Grandmaster Zeng actually introduced and promoted San Yuan Di Li Feng Shui in Taiwan. He said that 三元地理是真传. It then created a wave and fashion in the fengshui circle when everyone also started to jump on this bandwagon. Practitioners all brand themselves as San Yuan Di Li Masters. The term became so ubiquitous that it was no longer a novelty.
Zeng then coined the term Xie Zi Fa to replace the old name. And again, everyone started to copycat. In fact, there were a lot of spin-offs like:
- 大些子
- 小些子
- 连珠些子
- 正些子
- 奇些子
To Zeng, all these are adaptations which were not endorsed by him. There is only one Xie Zi Fa. This art is not a new creation and it does not deviate from authentic feng shui or the study of Kan Yu. Xie Zi Fa is still within this realm.
From what I read, in order to command that 起死回生 power (meaning reviving the dead), Zeng always selects a good date using San Yuan Qi Men Dun Jia (not the normal San He method using 9 palaces) to either do the real burial of the ancestors or carry out the live burial (做生基) for the terminally ill. I will share some cases in my next posting.
The hype of Xie Zi Fa is not recent. In fact, it started so long ago. Anyhow, since I am into research of Xie Zi Fa (not on the secret formula), I better learn the lingo too.
Next time when I see you, I will tell you either "OMG, your house has 翻些子." or "That's marvellous because the formation has 合些子."

些子法
Xie Zi Fa (term coined by Legendary Feng Shui Figure, Zeng Zi Nan) is quoted as the highest form of feng shui. No English book or anywhere in the internet is able to tell you or has written anything substantial about this divine art. Maybe my one year of research is not intensive enough.
I tried to research on Chinese websites. Stumbled upon some forums that discuss about this art but most of the time they ended up talking about Grandmaster Zeng Zi Nan (曾子南) - the rightful owner of this secret art. He died at an old ripe age of 100-year-old just few years back. He had predicted the time he would die. Please see his picture here.
What the heck is Xie Zi Fa? People told me it is part of XKDG. I mean this one I know and I have heard about it but what EXACTLY is in this art that can totally cure a terminally ill person suffering from cancer, guarantee that the infertile can get a son and produce President for the country? Yes, this is a closely guarded secret which is only passed on through the bloodline and NO, I am not expecting to get the formula but at least I want to satisfy my curiosity or rather overcome my skeptism that someone can actually play God at that kind of level?
I checked around; asked the famous fengshui bookstore at Beach Road and the boss actually confidently told me that nobody would ever, ever get a copy of Zeng Zi Nan's book on Xie Zi Fa anymore. He does not carry one and he told me his books are already out of print. Damn, I was so disappointed.
Fast forward to now. Guess what? I finally manage to get hold a copy of his book now!! I will not say how did I get it. But I pay quite a bit for it. It is not a secret formula book with loads of complicated stuff but it showcased some of Zeng Zi Nan's work, his thinking and actually debunked some silly myths about Xie Zi Fa. Imagine there are so much hypes about it until today.
For the benefits of those who do not understand Chinese and those who do not have access to such info, I shall share some interesting cases and concepts that he wrote in it. I am half way through the book and I am cracking my brain on how to translate some of his thinking to English so that the essence is not lost.
Stay tune...
