IN the local feng shui fraternity, Shion Lim is quite the odd one out. While many practitioners of the age-old tradition use instruments and techniques that have survived the test of time, Lim innovates with a little bit of tech.

With his software engineering background, Lim has created a feng shui app called iLiuFa S8, based on the traditional Chinese compass called Luo Pan, which is used by many feng shui masters to do analyses.

The feng shui technique that I use is called Liu Fa Feng Shui, which has been practised for hundreds of years. But I have given it a new life, in line with advancements in technology.

With the iLiuFa S8 app and feng shui calculations, Lim has enabled practitioners to work from a remote location, which is quite revolutionary in this particular field.

With the aid of Google Maps and compass, they can do feng shui scanning from anywhere, anytime, says Lim, adding that the app also allows people who are interested to do their own feng shui study.

Lim has designed the app specifically to identify whether a house is being affected by pernicious external energy in the surrounding environment that may bring diseases such as leukaemia, breast cancer or stroke.

The iLiuFa S8 app is a transparent Luo Pan that is placed on the Google Map satellite images to help identify whether ones house is being affected by harmful elements.

It can also be used to determine if the location of ones bed is the cause of certain illnesses, he claims.

With the iLiuFa S8, one can also determine the best placement of furniture for better feng shui, says Lim.

How it started Lim became a feng shui practitioner soon after his father died of lung cancer in 2009.

The other day, in Manila living a Travelife, I had lunch at the Mandarin Oriental Manila with the feng shui master himself, Master Joseph Chau.

Of course, I peppered him with questions about what people should do for better luck in business, health, wealth, love and other things.

THE FAMOUS MASTER CHAU

So for those who aren't attending the fabulous Chinese New Year's dinner at the Mandarin Oriental ballroom on February 10, I'm posting some guidelines.

I'm going to be one those absent for this auspicious event, by the way, as I'll be sitting on a golden beach in Colombo at exactly this time, waiting for my flight back to Manila.

Living a Travelife and having a wonderful time, of course, but missing a great event all the same.

2013 is the year of the YIN WATER SNAKE

Feng shui and what to do for good luck this Chinese New Year 2013

MANILA, Philippines -- On February 10, the Chinese community will usher in the Lunar New Year and the "Year of the Water Snake."

Feng shui expert Master Joseph Chau said 2013 is a year of challenges and conflicts. Tensions may also escalate as election day draws near.

But candidates in the May 13 elections who are under the zodiac animal signs dragon, dog, rabbit, monkey, and snake are luckier.

Couples planning a wedding this year may want to postpone the date to next year. Chau said 2013 is a blind year because spring will come earlier on February 4 than the Chinese New Year. In the Chinese tradition, this is bad luck for weddings.

But, Chau added, money will be easier to earn this year.

Some good business opportunities are in the tourism sector, hotel and restaurant, transportation and even the stock market.

According to the 2013 feng shui chart, there are areas in the house or office that are luckier, such as the northeast where the wealth star is located, and south, for the prosperity star.

To start the year right, place five kinds of fruits like pineapple, apple, banana and orange at the dining table on the eve of New Year's day.

One of the results of these stolen hours is a mixed-media piece called Empress II. The empresss ears are made of jade circles from an antique shop. Bronze with hints of sky blue is draped over her shoulders and is decorated with swirling auspicious Chinese patterns. The jade tones are complemented by a blazing red textured background, the lucky color for the Chinese.

FENG SHUI ART PROCESS If there are artists who only paint in the morning or paint at night, Ms. Uychaco only paints when the Chinese calendar deems it a good day. Its a symbolic start, she said.

Her layering of colors is guided by feng shuis five elements. Its like a cycle, a production cycle, Ms. Uychaco said. Water is good for wood because wood will not grow without water. Wood is good for fire because it feeds the fire. The fire turns to ashes which is earth. In the earth, you have metals.

Thus, she paints wooden brown tones over blue tones, which in turn can be covered by red tones, then earthen tones, and then metal tones.

Through this method, a rich texture emerges.

Another way to infuse the elements is to use different palettes. I have a palette made of clay for earth. I also have a glass palette for water. I also have a jade palette. She mixes her paints on these palettes, and I transfer their (the palettes) energy to the canvas.

COIN OF GOOD HEALTH Ms. Uychaco said she is not a feng shui expert, but simply an enthusiast.

Ten days to go before the Year of the Water Snake comes crawling in, and feng shui master Joseph Chau is gung ho! He sees the economy doing "better than Hong Kong," kung hei fat choi! "Money comes from everywhere!"

But particularly for those in tourism, real estate, hotels and restaurants. "Casinos will make money, always," he proclaimed with total confidence, "and especially this year very good."

Master Chau, Mandarin Oriental's feng shui man from Hong Kong with an international list of clients as long as his golden robes, presided over a prosperity meal at the hotel's Tin Hau restaurant and was amused at the questions thrown at him by a predominantly female crowd of journalists. They demanded instant answers to questions about the President's chances of marriage ("There's a wedding star in his horoscope, and if he forces himself to get married, of course he can do it") as well as the likelihood of a bloody or peaceful election ("It will be a struggle").

The good news is that all the signs can increase their luck by simply turning on an electric fan and keeping it blowing 24/7 in the northeast, which is where the wealth star shines. Other lucky stars are travel (NW), romance (N), prosperity (S), and promotion (SE). West, east and center are the unfavorable directions. Dragon and Dog are the luckiest signs. At the risk of being "killed" by the Chinese who love red, Mr. Chau warned that it is not necessarily the luckiest color for now.

Among Snakes, those born in 1977 are the luckiest, although they should be careful from September to November.

To President Aquino Mr. Chau offers a priceless tip: Build a new building in Malacaang "and I will guarantee 100 percent good for Philippines!" The catch is, "he must follow my instructions, and mine alone."
