The delivery of gifts in a Chinese wedding is commonly known as ‘Guo Da Li’.
The delivery of Chinese wedding gifts is an affirmation of his intent to marry, a display of respect and also demonstration of the groom’s ability of support the family after marriage.
This is normally done within a month from the date of the marriage.
The gift from the groom-to-be would normally include the following:-
Dowry
Wedding Biscuits
Two pieces of red cloth
Seafood e.g. abalone, dried scallops, dried shrimps, dried squid, sea cucumber, mushrooms, shark fins, fish maw and the must have ‘fa cai’
Cooked chicken
Roasted pig (or a piece of it)
Big fish (signifies abundance)
Coconut (usually in pairs)
Wine (use to be rice wine but nowadays substituted with imported ones)
Dried fruits e.g. dried longan, dried lychee, dried plum and ground nuts
Others e.g. tea leaves
In this modern day the list of the gift are constantly simplified based on cost and environmental sensitivity. For example, the size of the abalone package has shrunk due to the high price and shark fins may be eliminated from the list in order to be politically correct!
The gifts are delivered by the groom to be accompanied by relatives. There is normally no ceremony and the groom-to-be will take this opportunity to update the bride and in-laws-to-be on the progress of the wedding arrangement. Since many relatives of the bride will be present, this is also an opportunity for the groom-to-be to chat and foster goodwill.
The acceptance of the Chinese wedding gifts is an affirmation from the women’s side of the marriage.
The bride-to-be has to return some gifts in acknowledgement and they would normally include tea leaves, fruits, a pair of trousers, belt, wallet (with a red packet inside), pair of shoes and the remains of the roast pig (after the bride’s family and friends have they way with it!).

Feng Shui Bagua
It is not uncommon to find a Feng Shui Bagua installed above the main door of many Chinese homes. This device usually made of wood and octagon-shaped has a mirror in the center and surrounded by patterns of broken and unbroken lines.
Many Chinese believe that the Feng Shui Bagua can block harmful ‘sha’ energies from entering the house and affecting the occupants.
The pattern on the Feng Shui Bagua is that of the early heaven arrangement with Qian (three unbroken lines) on top and Kun (three broken lines) below. The mirror in the center can be convex or concave.
Can it the Feng Shui Bagua really block ‘sha’ energies from entering a premise?
The jury is out. Many practitioners especially those with Toaist root believe in the power of the device whose blocking power can be made more effective if it is blessed (‘hoi kong’). On the other hand many classical Feng Shui practitioners do not believe in its ‘supposed’ power.
Nonetheless, this has not stopped many Chinese families from installing it just in case.
A unique problem crops up in urban areas where houses and apartments are built quite close together. Many Chinese believe that the device install in the house opposite theirs can reflect the ‘sha’ into their house. In response, they install even bigger one to reflect the ‘sha’ back. This can go on an on and it is not uncommon to see killing ‘woks’ and ‘forks’ coming into play to supplement the Feng Shui Bagua.
How did the Feng Shui Bagua gain this ‘sha’ killing reputation?
Nobody knows but an explanation was postulated by a Feng Shui researcher not so long ago.
According to this researcher, the ancient Feng Shui Bagua does not have a mirror in the center.
Instead it has a copper plate, both convex and concave versions are available, that is polished to a shiny finish.
Copper is metal and it has the ability to neutralize earth based energies of earth based ‘sha’ such as the Five Yellow.
Is this the real reason? Your guess is as good as mine.
Do I use the device in my practice? I do not. There are other effective ways to avoid or block ‘sha’ energies without resorting to the Bagua. Installing the device is not neighbor friendly and it does not contribute to good relationships which is one of the objectives of applying Feng Shui in the first place!

Feng Shui and the Command Position
One of the most important feng shui guidelines is to place your bed and desk in what is called the "Command Position." In this position, you face the door from the far side of the room but are not directly in front of the door; usually the part of the room diagonally farthest from the entry offers the best Command Position.
In the Command Position, you are able to benefit from the chi that enters and flows through the space, while being far enough removed from the doorway that you are not exposed to chi that is too strong. A true Command Position also provides a solid wall behind you for support. Using this position puts you in visual command of the space, and allows you to face life directly, both literally and symbolically.
If you can't see the door from where you sleep or work, this implies that life can sneak up on you, that you tend not to face issues directly, and that you are easily startled and constantly dealing with unexpected events. Sleeping or working directly in line with the door also exposes you to excessive chi, which can contribute to stress, irritability, health problems, and feelings of overwhelm. Use of the Command Position removes you from these negative influences and puts you in control of your space and of your life.
The objective of using the Command Position for the bed and desk is a key factor as well in the feng shui guideline that says not to have your home office in the bedroom. While the main reason for this is that the energy of work (desk) and that of rest (bed) are incompatible and should not be housed in the same space, it is also highly unlikely that you will be able to place both the desk and the bed in the Command Position if you try to use both these important pieces of furniture in the same room.
These are fairly straightforward guidelines, but as so often happens, in any particular space there may be other factors involved that need to be taken into account. Although there are often several potential places to put a bed or desk that will meet the Command Position criteria (the larger the space, the more options you will have), usually one or more of these will be less than optimal for some reason. For example, placing your desk with a good view of the door may require sitting with your back to a large window. Not only does this imply lack of support in your career, but if you work at a computer (as most people with desk jobs do) glare from the window can also be a problem.
Other potential problems to be avoided include overhead beams, the low side of a slanted ceiling, sharp angles from interior corners, and an overhead fan in a room with a low ceiling - to name just a few. Any one of these factors may make a potential Command Position less than desirable. You should also keep in mind what is going on in the neighboring rooms as well as outside the building. For example, what may seem like the perfect Command Position location for your bed is not so perfect if your bedroom shares a wall with your kitchen or bathroom, and the toilet, shower, stove or refrigerator is right on the other side of the wall behind the bed. Another example would be a bedroom in the front of a house very close to the road. Here the Command Position might indicate placing the head of the bed against the exterior wall, where nighttime traffic may sound like it's driving right over your pillow and make it difficult to get a good night's sleep. In this case, you may find that placing your bed so it is in the Command Position relative to the road, rather than the doorway, is the better option. In many cases a review of the pros and cons of a space may indicate that the best location for your desk or bed may be one that is not in the Command Position, but that protects you from other influences.
The best possible furniture placement in any room in your home often involves a compromise between several different feng shui guidelines. The more you know about how the different features of your home affect your space, the better able you will be to make the placement choices that are best for you.

Feng Shui
Sometimes we hear of lives going through dramatic upswings and downturns, with the people affected tracing the origin of this to simply a shift of residence.
Try as we may to shut out such seemingly illogical and indeed impossible analysis’, they dog us through life and even countries and cultures. Feng Shui, which means ‘wind and water’, provides an understanding of such complex, mystical phenomena by demonstrating methods of optimizing universal energy flows through homes and individual spaces.
Feng Shui has been described by experts as an exciting composite of mystical beliefs, astrology, folklore and common sense. Feng Shui guides the designing of homes and room layouts in ways that enhance the quality of their owners’ lives in surprising and dramatic ways.
According to Lillian Too, a leading authority on feng shui, good Feng Shui positioning creates harmonious relationships between husband and wife, helps to beget good and loving children who bring honor to the family, foster good health, attract abundance and prosperity and build good reputations. In business, feng shui creates opportunities for growth, raises the business profile, attracts customers and raises turnover and profits. Bad feng shui, by contrast, brings illness, disaster, accidents and financial loss. Feng shui causes opportunities to slip away, careers to fade, wealth to be squandered and reputations to collapse.
Closer home, a leading feng shui expert, explains the home and personal spaces to be an extension of an individual’s outer body. “Just as our face and bodies reflect who we are inside, so does our homes, rooms or offices,” he says. “Just as when we change, our tastes and preferences change, impacting our appearance, dressing and interiors, when we make an external physical change outside, it impacts us on the inside”.
In a deeper sense, feng shui rests on the ‘Aham Brahmasmi’ philosophy or ‘I am That’. Simply put, it means each individual is the center of his universe and controls it. Feng Shui helps deal with that universe and tweak it to suit its creators’ objectives.
Allow us to guide you gently through the exciting and mysterious promise of feng shui. As a first small step, which promises big results, identify ‘clutter’ or objects, appliances, decorations, clothes, paper, etc, that are not useful. Anything that has not been used for two years or more is a redundant part of your life. Collect these and give them away. Since objects feed off your energy, you will feel more vibrant once these non-essential items are gone. As nature guides people and things to those who most need them, giving also begets good karma and frees space for new things to come into your life. Things that you most need, here and now.
Feng Shui theories stem from what the Chinese refer to as the Trinity of Luck: the Heaven Luck, the Man Luck and the Earth Luck.You might be very ambitious, hard working and willing to tirelessly pursue goals – an order for a consignment, a million dollar contract or the evasive `letter of approval` or MOU - but someone else, a laidback nincompoop doesn’t seem to worry and yet, gets the nod! This is his Heaven Luck. We can’t control the Heaven Luck. We are born with it. It is believed that the Heaven Luck affects 40 percent of our life.The Man Luck is when you exercise your free will. The Man Luck controls 25 percent of your life. Your success is even more defined if your Heaven Luck is in your favour.The Earth Luck is the domain of Feng Shui. The Earth Luck controls 35 percent of our life. Feng Shui can enhance, augment and trigger the Earth Luck. This ancient science of geomancy is popularly known as Feng Shui and pronounced as Fung Shway.
Chase bad luck away with the right feng shui. By applying feng shui principles in your own lifestyle, your home can become truly ideal for you and can have dramatics effects on your life.
Below mentioned some Feng Shui principles, which are applicable to all rooms and styles of interiors:
There should be no shoes or slippers lying around outside the main door of the house. Allow that space at the main door to be free and clear. The chi (energy) rides with the wind and will collect all the smell of those shoes and slippers into your house causing sickness. The chi then travels about in your house looking for water to stay but if there are no water fountains or fish tanks, then the chi will be dispersed by the wind.
Place an indoor water fountain on the northeast side. This position is a favourable area to attract whatever you want in your life.
If you already have a fish tank in your house, be careful. A fish tank placed correctly can bring about greater fortune, as you will tap on the “Divine Water Dragon’s Den”. But if you tap wrongly, it can cause you to have lawsuits, bankruptcy, work pressure, troubles and problems. If you notice any of these after placing a fish tank for approximately four months, shift your fish tank to another location.
Your bed should always have a solid wall behind you. This is important if you wish to have a good rest. A solid wall simply means that you can go into deeper sleep and therefore enable you to have good rest so that when you wake up in the morning, you will feel fresh and well rested. This also allows you to be able to concentrate on your work better.
There should be no beam on top of your bed. The beam above causes chi to be pressured thus causing pressures in life. Therefore, don’t place furniture underneath it, or; alternatively level the beam. But make sure if you choose the latter, it is important that you have enough height for that space.
There should be no television sets in your bedroom. If you cannot get rid of that habit then after watching the television, cover it with a plastic tablecloth. Remember, it has to be plastic and not just cloth.
There should be no mirrors opposite your bed or at the side of your bed. Therefore, do not place mirrors anywhere you like and especially in your bedroom.
In the kitchen, ensure that opposite your stove there is no refrigerator, washing machine, washbasin and toilet. The fire and water clash, causing family members to have disagreements.
Try not to allow children to sleep on mattresses on the floor. Yes, this allows young children not to fall off beds but it also causes young children to fall sick frequently. The reason is: chi is not able to flow underneath the bed. Ideally, chi should circulate around the mattress where our children sleep to allow them to be healthy.
For young children, try to have their back to the wall when they write. It is important there should be a solid wall behind a children’s writing table. This allows the child to have support so that he can sit there and study longer rather than for only half an hour and then they tend to move about because there is no solid wall behind their back. Adjust your writing table.
Do not allow children to sleep on double bunk beds even it means saving space. The child sleeping underneath will not have “fresh chi” and so he or she might be weak. But if due to space constraints, it is necessary, then monitor your child’s health. Add in a metal six rods wind chime or a crystal sphere, to break up the ‘stale chi’ around his bed.
If your child usually falls sick in that bedroom, then either have the little one switch to another bedroom or simply hang a six-rod metal wind chime, as the metal element will break all the earth energies in that room. If the wind does not do the job for you after hanging it, then “chime” it yourself and then watch for the good results.
Always open your bedroom windows at least once 20 minutes a day to allow fresh chi to come in. We do this so that it allows fresh new chi from outside to come into your bedroom; if not, you will be sleeping with stale chi every night. And if that happens, then how can you expect your life to bring in more good fortune to come to you? So open that window and never mind if dusts come in! The great good that you can have will far exceeds the time you take to clean off the dusts.
