Master David Tong's Advice Corner (Geomancy and Fengshui)

Hi David,

would like to check with you, if the FTB timing is stated as 0900 - 1059, does that means the groom has to step in bride's hse to reach back groom's house within the time fame?

what about tea ceremoney at groom's place? does it have to be done within this timing also?
 


My husband is monkey (1980) and I'm a rat (1972), ROM on 10 Nov 2010 no wedding ceremony. Was that a good date? How do we match?

Will be getting a resale flat by end may 2011. When should I contact you if I were to engage your services for classical feng shui? Cam pm me the charges or contact me via email at [email protected].

Thanks much

Hi Master Tong,

Can I check if 4 Dec 2011 is a good date for my wedding?

Groom: Dog
Groom's Dad: Dog
Groom's Mom: Dragon

Bride: Pig
Bride's Dad: Pig
Bride's Mom: Cow

Thank you.
 
Hi Master Tong,

If one of the guest's grandmother pass away 2weeks before her friend's wedding, can she attend? If attend, which party will be in bad luck?

Thank you!!
 
Hi Master Tong, my wedding had been change to 28/10/11.

Groom: Rabbit

Bride: Dog
Bride's Dad: Tiger
Bride's Mum: Rabbit

My husband parents had passed away long time ago.
Would like to know if the date is it good for us?
If he doesn't know his birth time, how do we calculate the dates ? How do we employ you to calculate for us?
 
Hi Mindy

Did your master gave you a range of timings? I not sure what he told you, but if he gave you eg 7am-9am for fetch the bride, it means the groom have to reach bride's home about 0630hrs, play games and gatecrashing session, and step into bride's home at 0700hrs (or after). Groom will fetch the bride to his home and complete tea ceremony with his parents by 0859hrs. After which, going back to your new home or to bride's parents home for tea ceremony is NOT within the auspicious timing. No timing is required for this.

Hope this helps

Hi houseoflove,

To be frank, if he says using Bazi to calcuate wedding dates is Duo Ci Yi Qu, he is ignorant and not a real master. Sorry to say that, but if you do some research, you will know that all authentic date selections involved the use of Bazi. Using just zodiac signs is really as good as none and you can DIY by buying a tong shu from Popular Bookstore and it cost only $5. Why the need to see him? If he don't know how to calculate dates beyond Jan 2012, that means he use a tong shu to do it...coz the tong shu wont be out till July/Aug this year..and by then, most 2012 weekends dates for most hotels will be gone.

I don't want to go too far to explain more here, but you should get my answer (and i don't want to know who he is either

Hi Lyn Chua

To me, these are all superstitions and no logical basis
happy.gif


For 2012, it clashes only Dog, hence if you are not born Dog yr, it is ok. to check the best year to do so will have to use Bazi to tell

Hope this helps

Hi parisbubble

Yes it is ok to do so. I don't see what is wrong with that

But if your parents are very superstitious type and will freak out if you do so, it is better to make them happy and avoid doing so

Hi Josky,

The FTB timing means the groom have to reach bride's home about 0830hrs, play games and gatecrashing session, and step into bride's home at 0900hrs (or after). Groom will fetch the bride to his home and complete tea ceremony with his parents by 1059hrs. After which, going back to your new home or to bride's parents home for tea ceremony is NOT within the auspicious timing. No timing is required for this.
 
Hi Angelia,

To see if that is a good date or not, will have to see both your bazi and parents zodiac signs. But since it is already over, i suggest not to find out as you will only get paranoid and nothing can be changed

For feng shui audit, you can contact me once you know the dates to get the keys from HDB and i will advise you step by step how and what to do from that time till the whole project finishes. No crystals, no jades, no pixiu to buy in a classical feng shui audit. Anything you need to buy, like a water feature for your wealth sector, you will buy yourself. I don't sell anything.

I will email you in a while with more info. Tks

Hi luvyvel

By right she cannot attend.

The person that goes to get the bad luck. Meaning for eg, if you and your best friend getting married within 3 mths of each other wedding, if you go to her wedding, you get the bad luck, not her. If she comes to yours, she get the bad luck, not you. Hence so long as you don't go, you are safe. But you cannot force/control everyone not to come to yours and sometimes you may not even know (if they don't tell you and don't believe)

Hope this helps

Hi Irene

That is a very bad date and most hotels will have this date available. This is a "Po Ri".

Without the time, i have to see his bazi to see if it can be "reverse engineered". Drop me an email for more info at [email protected]
 
Hi Master Tong,

You mention 4 Dec 2011 is a bad date for wedding. Is it still possible to get married on this day if it is a good date based on bazi calculation?

Thanks.
 
Hi Master Tong,

Can I check is 13 Oct 2012 is a good date?

What other auspicious dates are available for us on 2012 ? I prefer year end (weekend) ...Thank you so much.

bridegroom: ox
bride: ox
bride's mother: pig
bride's father: horse
bridegroom's mother: goat
bridegroom's father: snake


Nico
 
Hi Nico

That day clashes to ox, hence cannot be used.

The tong shu is not out yet, hence i can't advise you on general good dates for 2012 yet till it is out. The only way to do it now is using Bazi to calculate the dates
happy.gif
 
Hi Master Tong,

Can I check is 18 Dec 2011 is a good date?
What other auspicious dates are available for us in Dec 11 ( prefer on weekend ) ?

bridegroom: tiger
bride: horse
bride's mother: rabbit
bride's father: monkey
bridegroom's mother: snake
bridegroom's father: snake

thanks
 
Dear Master Tong,

Any ways to avoid bad luck if my best friend and I want to attend each other wedding? (wedding dates within a month)

Is this just a superstition?
 
Hi Master Tong,

My bf and I have plan to get married next year and we are looking at 05 May 2012 (lunar 4th month 15th day)..

bridegroom: dog
bride: dog
bridegroom's father: sheep
bridegroom's mother: snake
bride's father: rat
bride's mother: snake

I read in in your posts that 2012 is not a good yr for dog. Can you please advise if the above date is an auspicious date for us? Thanks!
 
Hi ML

this is a general tong shu good date and don't clash to any of you (clash Ox)

** Note that this is a general tong shu good date only. A good date in the tong shu can still become inauspicious if the date and your bazi are not compatible. Tong shu is for mass consumption only.

Hope this helps

Hi Sharon,

Since both of u are born Dog yr, 2012 is not a good yr for marriage, no matter which date you choose. Best to do it 2011 or 2013 if possible.
 
Hi Master Tong,

Could you kindly advise the general good dates for ROM on weekends of Dec 2011 & Jan 2012 before CNY based on the below:

Bride & Groom: Dog
Bride's Parents: Rooster & Rat
Groom's Parents: Monkey & Rooster

Thanks in advance!
 
Hi Master Tong!

I have a question regarding wedding date calculated by ba zi. Since tong shu is not out yet for 2012, what if a person has chosen a date (according to ba zi) before tong shu is out and that date turns out to be a general inauspicious date for marriage in tong shu? Will it then be an unsuitable date to get married?

Thanks so much for your advice!!
 
Hi there,

I heard that it is considered inauspicious to get married within 100 days of a death in a family as it will cause harm to the bridegroom. Some say that will die young before 50 yrs old. Is it true? If yes, does this refer to ROM or chinese customary wedding? Thanks alot.
 
Hi Master Tong,

Can I check if 10 Nov 2012 will be a good date for us?

bridegroom: rooster
bride: ox
bride's mother: monkey
bride's father: horse
bridegroom's mother: ox
bridegroom's father: mouse

If not, what other auspicious dates are ther available for us during Q4 2012 ? We prefer weekend.

Also will it affect us if bride's sister is married in Q4 2011 or Q1 2012?

Bride's Sis: Dog
Bride's BIL: Ox

Thank you so much.

Kris

Hi

I would like to check regarding the following:
1. is it true it is not possible to check for auspicious dates according to ba zhi for 2012 past CNY as the reference book is not out yet?
2. because of the above that was told to us, the last 2 dates calculated for us is 2nd jan 2012, or 5th jan 2012.
3. alot of my cousins (all maternal side) and my own sis getting married one after another. my sister's wedding is 15th oct 2011, my cousin's wedding is 26th november 2011, another cousin's wedding is 2nd december. and mine is 2nd january 2012. - my question is: i. is it bad luck/inauspicious for my sister and i to be married on those 2 respective dates, which are within <3months of each other? ii. is it bad luck for me to attend my cousins' and my sister's wedding if my wedding date is to be on 2nd jan 2012?
4. if it is not true that auspicious dates for 2012 can be calculated via ba zhi beyond CNY 2012, can i engage your services?

Thanks so much!
really need a reply soon.
we are actually on the verge of signing for 2nd january date at our wedding venue, then i chanced upon this forum and was boggled by all those above questions.
 
Hi Master Tong,

Please advise if the following date is okay for wedding:
2 Dec 2011 for Customary
9 Dec 2011 for dinner

Groom: Rat
Groom's Parents: Dragon

Bride: Rabbit
Bride's Dad: Rat
Bride's Mom: Ox

Thanks alot!
 
Hi Mandy

Unfortunately, all the general good weekends for these 2 months clashes to you or your parents, hence i can't find any. Want to consider weekdays?
 
Hi Dorris,

Bazi date selections override the tong shu dates. Tong Shu is in general only. If you do some research, tong shu A, B, C from country X, Y, Z all tell you different things.

Once the date is selected useable using Bazi, totally ignore the tong shu. Even if it is bad for wedding ,still can be used. Think of it...even on so call bad days, there are people in this world earning millions that day right? Coz everyday will be favourable to someone. Tong Shu assumes if a day is bad, everyone is bad! This is not logical

Hi jolene88

This is a superstition and it is more of a respect for the deceased.

Different people different dialects have different beliefs. Some believe (and most common belief) is to do it within 100 days or 1 (or 3) years later. BUT yes, some believe cannot be done within 100 days..so there is really no right or wrong answer..this is just a "belief". So whichever your family believe in, just follow it
happy.gif


Applicable for both ROM and AD as they are considered red events

Hi Kristine Chin

That date clash to snake, hence none of you. But to check if it is a general good date or not will have to wait till tong shu is out in July/Aug period.

Normally siblings cannot be married within the same yr. If really no choice, it must be at least 3 mths apart. For your case, it is more than 3 mths apart, so it is ok.

Hope this helps

Hi Stephanie Ng

Only 7th Jan 2012 is a general good date. That date clashes to Rooster, hence clashes to none of you (only factor in parents and both of you...rest not counted).

Hope this helps

Hi taf

See my replies below:

1. is it true it is not possible to check for auspicious dates according to ba zhi for 2012 past CNY as the reference book is not out yet?

Absolutely not true. I've already done over 400++ couples for 2012 dates...as you might have read from this forum, tong shu is only general date selection. Bazi is for individual only. It's like MTM vs Off The Rack gown
happy.gif


2. because of the above that was told to us, the last 2 dates calculated for us is 2nd jan 2012, or 5th jan 2012.

Coz whoever that counts for you only know how to use the tong shu to calculate dates! by the time tong shu is out, most popular weekend dates will be gone..you can do the maths
happy.gif


3. alot of my cousins (all maternal side) and my own sis getting married one after another. my sister's wedding is 15th oct 2011, my cousin's wedding is 26th november 2011, another cousin's wedding is 2nd december. and mine is 2nd january 2012. - my question is: i. is it bad luck/inauspicious for my sister and i to be married on those 2 respective dates, which are within <3months of each other? ii. is it bad luck for me to attend my cousins' and my sister's wedding if my wedding date is to be on 2nd jan 2012?

Yes, sibling's wedding must be at least 3 mths apart. And you cannot attend others wedding at least 3 mths (some parents believe 4 mths) before AND after your own wedding.

4. if it is not true that auspicious dates for 2012 can be calculated via ba zhi beyond CNY 2012, can i engage your services?

You can drop me an email at [email protected] for more info . Tks

Hi azaleas

2 Dec 2011 clashes to Rooster (which is none of you) and is a general good date, hence can be used if u looking at general good dates.

9 Dec 2011 clashes to Dragon, hence cannot be used.

Hope this helps

Hi Master Tong,
May I check with you is it true that we cannot hold our wedding in a é–æœˆï¼Ÿ

Groom: Dog

I also heard that year of dragon clashes with dog and year of snake clashes with pig. So does it means we have to get married either in 2011 or have to wait till 2014?

Thanks =)
