As mentioned in a previous chapter, placement of the kitchen faucet
(water) directly across from the stove (fire) is a feng-shui featuring
inviting "peach blossom luck."
If, beyond the front door, one has two different kinds of trees,
one on the right and one on the left, this also invites "peach
blossom luck."
A very steep slope directly behind the house and a pond shaped
like a woman's eyebrow in front of the house signifies that males
of the house will have "peach blossom luck." Such a feng-shui
pattern indicates that, from generation to generation, fathers and
sons will marry two wives.
Features that invite "peach blossom luck" for men include
the following:
- Vines twining around a tree in front of the house--This indicates
a "hard-to-shake" entanglement.
- Water from a metal-element mountain directly facing the front
door--This indicates that males of the house are handsome, "lady's
men."
- A mountain in front of the house resembling a desk that is toppled
sideways as if dancing--This indicates that the man likes to loaf
about.
Features that invite 'peach blossom luck" for women include
the following:
- A tree in front of the house that is swollen in both the top
and the bottom--This indicates a prospensity for promiscuity.
- A watercourse in front of the house that reverses its flowing
direction--This indicates adultery.
- Two watercourses in front of the house, rapidly flowing away--This
indicates elopement with another man.
- Beams of the house with floral designs carved upon them--This
indicates that the woman will obsessed with men.
- A forked road on the white tiger side of the house with the
tiger side of the house directly facing the intersection of the
fork's tines--This indicates the woman will have many men.
- A smaller convenience door beside the main door--This indicates
the wanting of both parties.
I once perrformed a feng-shui reading for a family whose male members,
from the great-grandfather's generation to the great-grandson's,
all had two wives. It turned out that the slope behind the family
house was very steep and there was an eyebrow shaped pond in front
of the house. In addition, two different kinds of trees had been
growing outside the front door.
In my feng-shui readings, I have also come across cases where forked
roads are right beside the tiger side of homes. One must understand
that forked roads are like beauties, exposing and offering themselves.
A forked road next to the tiger side can have a powerful impact
on women in the household. An innocent and pure woman may become
loose and wanton.
Such developments are undesirable as they are destructive to normal
family life. Peach blossom luck, whether inflicted upon a man or
woman, is disastrous and invites instability. Only certain individuals
can benefit somewhat from peach blossom luck--actors and actresses.
A handsome actor or beautiful actress with peach blossom luck will
attract fans and be admired and loved by greater numbers of people.
With such individuals, the greater the peach blossom luck, the greater
their sex appeal and popularity.
Homes of the wealthy often have front doors so large they are difficult
to open. For convenience sake, smaller side doors are occasionally
added next to the front door. But, this gives a house two openings:
it gives "convenience" to oneself but also to others.
"Wanting both the big door and the small door" is a sign
of disastrous peach blossom luck. It is acceptable to have a smaller
door in addition to the main door as long as the smaller door is
a sufficient distance from the latter. Avoid having the large and
small doors right beside one another.
Geomancers know that "undesirable water courses ruining a
prosperous spot" are waters associated with peach blossom luck.
Men and women under the spells of such peach blossom luck are lost,
trapped by desires, and unable to control their fanciful and fickle
hearts. The presence of murmuring water or water running towards
one's house with a sudden reversal and flowing away of water before
the front of the door are undesirable feng-shui features associated
with adulterous elopement.
The combination of water in front of the house and the presence
of many secluded trees at the back of the house is a sign that the
woman of the house may become involved in licentious and incestuous
relationships.
To quote the feng-shui verse:
Water reversing its course leads to licentiousness,
A forked road appears as a naked display;
Even a chaste girl from a good family,
Will wind up in bed with two lovers.
An individual in a marriage stricken with peach blossom luck is
like a rock tossed into the quiet lake of family life. Ripples appear.
If one does not make appropriate changes, divorce and family break
up may result. Those who can tolerate infidelity will face the co-existence
of wife and mistress. For those who cannot tolerate such situations,
there are divorce courts.
The Secrets of Earth Magic advises that feng-shui features
associated with the invitation of peach blossom luck be removed
and avoided. Once peach blossom luck is stirred, it is not easily
managed or kept under control.
I, Living Buddha Lian-sheng, have in my lifetime helped thousands
of men and women solve problems of varying magnitudes caused by
sexual indiscretions. Feng-shui treatments to correct undesirable
features in their homes and Tantric methods of purification and
subjugation have been employed. Some of the stories I have encountered
are so intriguing I could write thousands and thousands of novels
based on them.
In summary, whether brought upon a man or a woman, peach blossom
luck is undesirable. It can bring a sudden turn of unforseen events
and turmoil to family life. If handled inappropriately, great resentment
and even suicide may result.
