Not only common in XK. It is common in others too. You are a XK supporter.

Is 气 mention here = wind, oxygen, cardon dioxide, energy or... This is for one to find out.

三为財，四为丁, if I am not wrong. Honestly, I can't remember where I heard this from. According to my limited understanding on the affect of stove on fengshui... In ancient time, kitchen is always on the ground floor. The stove has a fire mouth or opening that allow the user to feed the chopped wood in to start/maintain/control the fire. For those who watch HK drama, you should have seen some of these stoves. I believe some of the rural areas in China are still using such stoves. This is the qi mouth (气口). As kitchen is on the ground floor, it will be connected with di qi (地气). The fire mouth will be facing in an auspicious direction and located in a bad sector. This is according to Bazhai system. Of course, there are other considerations than what I have mentioned above. In this age, most of us in Singapore are staying in flats, so it is rather impossible to have such effect. Further to what others mentioned here that the current stoves are burners with knobs/induction cookers, so where is the 气口? So long the stove is located in a good area base on whatever fengshui system you or your fsm is employing, it should be fine provided it is done correctly.

Hi Nipponho, It isn't that Bazhai is useless. The current market teaching of East 4 and West 4 group are just tip of the iceberg for Bazhai system. The system can also be pretty complicated involving different stars as well as wuxing sheng ke and others to be considered. I agree with gnolard that if you are still uncomfortable, get professional help rather than DIY.

Hi gnolard, No offence please. I always thought that Bazi and Zi Wei are 2 different system. The different schools for Bazi are Yuan Hai Zi Ping (aka Zi Ping Bazi)and Meng Pai etc?

I think the one shown here is for decorative purpose. The shops you went are probably selling fengshui items. Most of the time, when someone wanted to buy a windchime for fengshu purpose, most of the time, the 6 rods one and in gold color are recommended. Maybe the shop owner never heard of 4 rods windchime for fengshui purpose that why they don't carry.

Is this cure meant only for sickness star 2, or rather, is it the best cure for star 2? Honestly, if it is only for star 2, I would have use something else.

I bought a small packet of sea salt from those market stall that sells dried stuff. My jar is quite big(bought from Ikea). So, I poured everything in. The salt took up less than 1/4 of the jar. I filled up the jar with water till slightly more than 3/4 full. I understand some masters will direct their clients on what the concoction are. However, some don't persist on this because what are suppose to be there (the rest of the items) must be there.

Hi Zhizhong, I find it strange too. I had seen some others who place this cure either have the salt crystallized or the water dried up and colour changes, regardless of whether the lid is open or closed. But mine is still the same. I just checked it before I posted this reply. There are some dust particles on the surface of the water. Generally, the water is still clean.

The annual star 3 is located at North this year. Since your fsm recommended you to place this cure in North, there must be one or more stars that clash this star 3 or vice versa. I have also placed a salt water cure in my North since last Aug. I am using a glass jug for it. The lid is always open. The water has not evaporated a bit. There is no change in the color of the water and the salt. However, some may experience colour change to the salt and/or water (eg. to light or dark blue, brownish etc).
