1. Most importantly, sector Feng Shui or paying homage to a sector is not a realistic way to practise Feng Shui.

2. The rationale is because it is too general to be of use for anyone.

Statistically, it makes no sense to relate SW = romance sector.

3. In many of the past examples, I given such an example:-

4. Assuming that SW = romance sector, what happens if three of us are intrested in a new employee?

5. Based on the `romance sector theory' that we often read from some books, it says that we have to enhance it.

6. In my case, I place 1 rose on my SW sector. While, you have heard me doing so and decided to place 99 roses on your work table as well as 99 roses in your home at SW sector. Another of our colleagues, heard of this and outdo the two of us. He placed 999 roses at his SW corner at his home and to outbid you he also placed 199 roses at his office table top.

7. Guess who the girl dated and perhaps got married? One possibility could be:-

" All three of us became complacent. Waiting and hoping for `Feng Shui' to do the `trick'. But it never happended! - Instead, she was being wooed by a nice `boy' who talked to her daily at the bus stand where she takes a bus to work. "

8. I hope you can understand the fallacy of sector Feng Shui or paying homage to SW. Or if SW is missing means that you are doomed in a relationship. This is where, auto suggestion may take place. If one's spirit is down, one may never go and meet someone who may become your potential partner.

9. Yes, it is possible to divide a room. But one must see how big the rooms are. If the rooms are huge e.g. like the Buckingham Palace or the large rooms e.g. ball rooms, function rooms, one may still divide the room.

10. But if your room is no more than 10 feet by 10 feet or even 20 feet by 10 feet. It does not make sense to do so.

11. The question asked is: What is the purpose of doing so. So that one ends up with more romance sector to enhance.

12. There is no major problem with an exposed beam if one does not sit below it most of the time.

13. In fact, the effects would be felt only if one say sits under the beam for extended period of times e.g. One and the half hours or more per day per year.

14. If you or your family do not sit below it, as mentioned above, it does not matter.

15. However, to neutralise a beam, one must see what material it is made of.

- If it is made of wood, then, metal element should be used to neutralse this beam.

- If the beam is made of concrete, then wood element is used to neutralise it i.e. two flutes.

In my opinion, don't listen or believe too much in `sector Feng Shui' i.e. SW = romance, North = career.

Try, if one wants to and in 2 or 4 years more, please return to the forum and give your comments on it.
