Supercharged

none.

 

just find a auspicious day and time to start work, if your contractor cannot commit..

 

you have to diy, use a hammer and chip off a corner..

That's for the official renovation work.

 

if your house is vacant for a while, upon going in.

knock on the main door, then slowly open the door..

let it air for a while, for me.. a cigarette time

 

then go in and open all the windows to ventilate further.

usually this is done in the morning.

 

After everything has been done and ready to move in.

Find another auspicious day and timing.

This is important if you wish to host and pray.

If you're not those super superstitious type and don't even know what the usual practices are (it's ok I don't either), then why need to do at all?

 

If I roll a pineapple in my house without knowing why i'm doing so, just because people say I should, got any use meh? Isn't the intent more important than the action?

Just want to follow those "basic" and simple steps Chinese following. No harm also. But of course not those big money spending or complicated type lar.

Yeah I guess no harm, just that your question got me thinking.

 

If I just go through the motions without understanding or intent, I wonder if the spirits/gods/whatever know whether I mean it or not.

Since you are not those super superstitious type but still a bit superstitious type

 

then maybe you can spend a few hundred.

 

The value of free advice is usually $0.

 

But if you still really want free advice then I suggest

 

bathing in pineapple juice when you first move in.

 

That will clear away all the bad influence in your new place.

Hahaha thanks anyway but the bathing of the pineapple juice seems sacarstic ......... I doubt is the practice...... but i will mix with some lemon juice will be nice also.

Mr Chow, you forgot the most important follow up point.

 

The owner of the house must wear the RED underwear ON THE HEAD and then prance into the house machiam like lion dance. [grin]

The most important thing is to ensure the following:

 

1) Renovate when you're ready financially

2) Ensure that the design is to your liking

3) Choose a reliable interior designer and contractor

 

All the hocus pocus of feng shui tips such as drinking pineapple juice and placing coins under tiles won't work if you don't your act right LOL!!!

The most important thing when moving in is, BE THE HAPPIEST PERSON YOU CAN BE and never quarrel with your family.

 

You can move all your things in before the actual day. So your headaches and worries should not be brought along. The official move in date should be the one you spent the night sleeping in your new home.
