Browse Forums Feng Shui Re: House number 21May 28, 2009 11:46 pm In chinese culture, 8 means money and prosperity and 4 means DEATH. I know a few chinese people who refuse to buy a house that has 4 in it, especially 44 which means double death! Idiots are fun, that's why there is one in every village! - Dr. House - Re: House number 23Jun 08, 2009 9:21 pm Pisces does anyone know what the number 5 means in chinese? just curious From wiki: Five The number 5 (五, Pinyin: wŭ) is associated with the five elements (water, wood, fire, earth and metal) in Chinese philosophy, and in turn was historically associated with the Emperor of China. For example, the Tiananmen gate, being the main thoroughfare to the Forbidden City, has five arches. It is also referred to as "I" as the pronunciations of "I" (吾, Pinyin: wŭ) and 5 sound similar in Mandarin. I'm of chinese heritage and never knew that association.. haven't really heard #5 associated with anything bad so I guess it must be a good thing. Btw, i'm a #5 too.. go us!

Handover - Aug 10 Re: House number 25Oct 04, 2009 12:18 am The reason for Chinese wanting an Eight (8) is that 8 means making a lot money. Last year the Olympic games opening date was 2008, 08, 08 at 8:08pm! In Feng Shui, now we are in period 8 (2004 - 2023), and 8 is in season. According to Flying Star Feng Shui, if you have a Water Star number 8 flies to the entrance of the house, you will be prospered and making a lot of $. That is why Chinese like number 8. My phone number has five 8s in it. ha..ha...I am doing all right. Cheers!

For Chinese Astrology Four Pillars of Destiny calculation, the True Solar time is to be used. I asked where were you born, so I can work out the true solar time. If your birth time is correct, at the moment your luck is very average. However you will be bloody rich after 2018.

I hope you are right at the prediction of bloody rich as soon as i am still around in 2018 Re: House number 35Oct 16, 2009 2:24 pm Here are the house numbers we have bought or lived in - in order: 4 5 2 6 9 4 8 These are the actual street numbers, not adding up numbers to arrive at a single digit. Strange, huh? Of all the possible house numbers we can't get more than a 9. Earlier this year we put in an offer on a house that was number 68. Of course, it had 2 digits and we did not get it. I laughingly suggested to DH that we still need a number 1 or 7. So yep, we have now bought a number 7 - and no, it's not because it was a number 7.

Re: House number 40Aug 01, 2010 2:39 pm I know someone whose neighbour bought the townhouse next door off the plan and before she bought it she insisted the builder change the number of the townhouse. That street now has house numbers that go 2, 4, 6, 10, 8, 12... I didn't know this was possible.
