Dear Anon,

Each has its advantages and disadvantages.

1. Usually, the 8 pie is easiest to do if one has a protractor or already has a predrawn transparency template done. It's so simple thus to determine the centrepoint and then immediately, sketch/draw the 8 pie on the copy of the layout plan.

The 8 pie is also easy especially if the house is odd shpaed, with missing corners or you want to do an analysis which extends outwards of the house. It is also good for circular houses.

Many Traditional Feng Shui practitioners like to use this because the numbers, Water, Mountain and Base stars, in my opinion can be neatly written and clearly understood.

2. The 9 equal parts, or 9 grids is useful if the house is rectangular or squarish shape is acceptable. Here, you can clearly see which sector is under the influence of a particular sector.

It is advantages only if we are only looking within the confines of the house or within the borders of the house.

3. Therefore, there are no right or wrong answers as to which method to use.

For me, I prefer to use the Pie Chart method as a quick an easy way to subdivide the sectors (plus the centre sector).

If the house is a `perfect' rectangle or square, the grids are much easier to draw. Many Singapore government flats have sectors or divisions of rooms that quite fall within the 9 x 9 grid and thus it makes sense to use the Grid method. Plus, the walls fall parallel with the True compass directions e.g. North, 0 degrees, 90 degrees, 180 degrees ...

4. More importantly, it is not how one draws the 9 x 9 grid or 8 sector Pie charts but, the delivery is in giving quality results to the clients.

5. In the past, I do have a laugh when there was a debate over which method is `better'. I believe, all of us has more important things to do than childishly fight over such a `silly' matter.

Warmest Regards,
Cecil
