WARNING! This is a very long post, but if you want to know...
1) three important tips to win at the casino,
2) which VIP's life will be in danger in 2010 and
3) which month you should stay away from the stock market,
....then you might want to continue reading : )
I have written about Feng Shui 2010 according to Joey Yap. Now it's Lillian Too's turn!
I attended Lillian Too's Feng Shui Extravaganza 2010 which was a whole day affair held at Plenary Hall, KL Convention Centre on January 10th 2010. Her feng shui talk was one week ahead of Joey's and it had been like that every year.
This year however, I noticed that the hall was only about three quarter full. I was not sure what happened but it seemed as if she's getting less popular now. Maybe some of her long time fans are switching over to Joey Yap?
Well, despite the drop in attendance, I still enjoyed her talk nevertheless. She had always been a good speaker and she still is. Her talk was so funny it was practically a laugh a minute! It's no wonder that my friend who did not believe in feng shui attended her talk every year without fail! Just to enjoy a full day entertainment, she told me. Haha!
Before Lillian started her talk, there was a lion dance performance all around the large hall and on stage. I took a few pictures but only this one turned out well.
Lillian then came out and went round the hall to shake hands with her audiences. I didn't get to shake her hands as I was sitting somewhere in the middle where she could not reach.
When she started her talk, I was amused to see that those lion dance workers had to stand there holding the dragon until the first part of her speech was over. That must be really tiring!
By the way, that giant book you see on stage is Lillian's latest book called Living With Good Feng Shui that she is no doubt promoting. The book gives readers an in-depth look into Lillian's home and office, which should make interesting reading!
So what did Lillian Too predicted for the year 2010, the year of the metal tiger? Of course she is no fortune teller. What she predicted was based on her analysis and interpretation of this year's Bazi. (or Paht Chee in Cantonese)
2010 Bazi Chart courtesy of Bazi Buzz
Lillian joked a lot about Tiger Woods this year. Look at Bazi Chart for 2010 above. Can you see Tiger Woods? There's Rabbit Wood, Rooster Metal, and then there are two Tiger Woods! Haha!
Oh, she also asked this question which I could not remember the answer to. The question was "What is the difference between a tiger and a lion?"
It was obviously a joke about Tiger Woods but I could not remember the answer although I remember laughing out loud! Anyone of you attended her talk and remember this joke? Do let me know the answer, please : )
And do you know what has 2012, Avatar and Crouching Tiger Hidden Dragon got to do with feng shui?
Nothing much really, except that Lillian mentioned about them during the seminar, haha! She had high praises for 2012 and Avatar and recommended both movies highly.
As for Crouching Tiger Hidden Dragon, I learnt it had something to do with the Bazi Chart this year! If you refer to the chart above, you can see the presence of rabbit and tiger. These two animals are symbols of Spring and when combined with the Dragon would create a trinity that produces a very strong seasonal combination of spring.
OK, you may not understand fully (neither do I, haha!) but according to Lillian Too, this Crouching Tiger can cause the Hidden Dragon to surface producing auspicious new beginnings! This is the actual source that gave birth to the phrase "Crouching Tiger Hidden Dragon". Interesting!
OK, back to more serious stuff. Looking at the Bazi Chart above, you will notice that it is not a balanced chart. When I say not balanced, I mean some elements are missing. In Chinese metaphysics, the world is made up of 5 elements, namely Earth, Metal, Wood, Water and Fire. A balanced Bazi Chart would have all these 5 elements present.
(FYI, the Bazi is made up of four pillars. From the left to right is the Hour, Day, Month and Year pillar respectively. Each pillar has 2 characters, the top character is known as heavenly stem and the bottom character is earthly branch. Below the earthly branches, are the hidden heavenly stems.)
However, in the 2010 Bazi Chart, there is missing fire and water elements although there is hidden fire under the month and year pillar. What does this mean?
According to Lillian Too, missing fire indicates a lacking of creativity and intelligence in 2010. You know, like burning churches and mosques, riots, political backstabbings and things like that.
And the hidden fire in the month and year pillar (not shown in English in the Chart above), indicates fire disasters like forest fires and volcano eruptions. So you are living near an active volcano? Be on the alert then for that volcano would most likely erupt this year!
If you look at the Year pillar, there is a metal and a wood element there. In Chinese metaphysics, metal is said to destroy wood (refer to diagram below) indicating health problems pertaining to lungs and respiratory problems. So if you think that the H1N1 epidemic is over, you may be wrong. Beware of H1N1's second wave!
(For Cycle OF Elements 101, please read here)
Of course, Lillian Too has a preventive cure for H1N1 - wear her 4 Heavenly Kings scarf which contains powerful healing mantras!
The metal and wood conflict also means that war and fierce fightings will continue in 2010. International conflict and disharmony will go on and there will be political instability in many countries, especially in Southeast Asia.
With metal from the heavenly stem destroying the earthly branch wood, coupled with lack of water elements, it is going to be a very dry year. A dry year does not mean no rain. It simply means a year full of burglaries, fire hazards, pollution and car accidents. So there is a higher chance of road accidents in 2010. And I can just imagine the haze from Indonesia coming back again to haunt us in Malaysia! Not very good news!
Now take a look at the 2010 Bazi Chart again. To prevent you the hassles of scrolling up and down, I'm reproducing the Chart below for your convenience.
2010 Bazi Chart courtesy of Bazi Buzz
Do you see that the wood element makes up most of all the elements? There are also wood elements in the hidden stems. This dominant wood indicates strong competition. Lillian Too warned that even friends can become devious in the interests of surviving through a tough time, so be extra careful!
Now we all know wood needs water to grow. Since there is plenty of wood this year, but no water element at all, this means all the woods will be rotting woods! This indicates that anyone dealing in the wood industry (eg plantation, agriculture, publishing) will be in for lots of competitive pressures and a tough time!
In Chinese metaphysics, wood is said to destroy earth. Since wood element is dominant this year, that means earth energy will be unstable. Unstable earth energy leads to earthquakes! According to Lillian Too, earthquakes are likely to happen in the Northeast (China) and Southwest (South America) areas of the world.
Wow! Didn't the Haiti earthquake came a bit early? Perhaps that's an indication of more earthquakes to come throughout the year?
Earthquake aftermath in Haiti
The absence of water in the Bazi Chart means that we desperately need water elements this year. So anyone with water elements in his or her personal Bazi Chart will do better than those without. And water element businesses (eg banking, shipping, transport, fishing) will do well and therefore owners of such businesses can afford to take calculated risk.
If you are into stock market, Lillian said that water element stocks (eg oil, banks etc) will do well. Do take note of this!
To cure this absence of water, Lillian Too suggested that we surround ourselves with water! Wearing blue and black colour (which signifies water) clothings do help in changing the energy level so wear more of such colours this year. Guess I have no problem with this as blue is my favourite colour and it matches well with black!
Lillian also mentioned about the river from the Kunlun mountains in China which is believed to be the source of most rivers in South East Asian countries. It seemed that this river in Kun Lun was blocked thereby affecting the feng shui of South East Asian countries.

However, Singapore and Indonesia are spared as they are not connected to the river and besides, these two countries are surrounded by water! Now isn't that interesting!
Besides water industries, fire industries will also be doing well. This means most restaurants will be doing brisk business, entertainment industry will be reaping in the profits and the stock market looks promising for quick gains.
Talking about the stock market, the first half of the year will be better than the second half. Lillian Too warned that we should be careful during September and October when things would not look so good and advised us to stay away from the stock market during these two months. Western markets will do better than Asian markets, it seems.
Metal industries (eg jewellery, computers, airlines, mining) outlook is average for this year. Business approach would need creative strategies.
Earth industries (eg property, real estate, construction, hotels) does not look too good this year. There will be little wealth or profits, so there is a need to think at least of the medium term.
I have already mentioned about the Flying Stars in my post on Joey Yap's seminar, so I will not repeat it here. As most of you who are into feng shui would probably know by now, Joey Yap and Lillian Too differs in that Joey Yap is into classical feng shui whilst Lillian is more into new age feng shui. New age feng shui involves placing objects to cure afflictions or to activate good stars.
It will make this post too long if I mention about the cures so you may want to check out Lillian's recommendation here.
Now I have reach the exciting part. The part where Lillian reveals which VIP's life will be threatened in 2010. To do that, let's take a look at the Flying Star Chart 2010 below.
2010 Flying Stars Chart courtesy of wofs.com
Notice the number 9 at the Northwest sector. In Flying Stars, number 9 represents fire. The Northwest sector represents heaven's gate. This combination means fire at heaven's gate which is not auspicious.
According to Lillian Too, this combination also means danger to a leader. And since it's the Northwest sector (if you look at the world map, USA is at the Northwest sector), the leader in question would be none other than the current President of USA Barack Obama!
Lillian went one step further to check on Obama's life force and spirit essence. She was dismayed to find that Obama, whose astrological animal is Ox, has low life force and spirit essence this year!
For the uninitiated, life force indicates danger to one's life. If one has low life force, this means the danger to one's life is high. As for spirit essence, this indicates one's personal cosmic strength whether one will encounter spiritual obstacles. If your spirit essence is low, it is easy for you to be hurt by bad spiritual energies.
So will anything happen to Obama in 2010? Your guess is as good as mine.
But Lillian had this hope that Obama knew a little about feng shui and would probably have in his possession a few talismans or cures to protect himself from his life threatening afflictions. She even mentioned (or probably boasted a little) that he actually owned a talisman that came from her online feng shui mall! How about that!
Finally, the tips on how to win at casinos! Most casinos especially in Asia are heavily feng shui-ed to give advantage to the casino owners. In other words, once you go in there, you are almost guaranteed to lose money to them! Lillian gave us 3 tips. Now read carefully...
Tips #1 - DO NOT ENTER THROUGH THE FRONT MAIN ENTRANCE OF THE CASINO. You will most probably notice the fu dogs statues placed at the front entrance - these giant fu dogs are meant to eat you up! Lillian advised to enter via other entrances probably from the back. So if you take a cab to the casino, make sure you tell the cab driver not to drop you off at the main entrance. Instead instruct him to drop you at the parking area.
Tips #2 - When you gamble, DO NOT SIT DOWN! If you notice, the chairs inside casinos have holes at the back. This signifies no proper support. And the holes allow money to flow out! So when you gamble, stand up!
Tips #3 - Face your personal best direction. To know your good directions, you will need to know your KUA number. You can get your KUA number here. Your best direction is usually your success direction. In other words, when you go to the casino, please bring along a compass so that you know which direction to face when gambling!
So there you have it, 3 tips on how to win at casinos. However, Lillian gave us one last tip. Do you want to know what is her last tip? She called it bonus tip : )
Here it is....
Tips #4 (bonus tip) - The moment you win.......RUN!!! Haha.
Most gamblers continue to gamble even after winning hoping to win even more. However this rarely happens so leave the casino as soon as you win big. Good advice indeed.
FIRST COMMENTER
wind water huh!
Had stomach full of wind and water from the last entry on Joey's and still not 'digested' as yet. haha
Aiya reading your WARNING I should not be reading further leh..so how?
Kenot get 1st one!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

very very very long post....hahahaah lilian too should work for the MOH since she knows how to prevent h1n1 hahaahhhaa and how much did you pay for attending?
I like the last tip.
.........
very very very loooooooong...
work first.. T.T

cannot.. print first..
lalalal.. i am spamming
Due to your warning about your long post, I just jump straight to comment section. XD
Might take me days to really read your post lah foong. LOL
I saw her on astro channel, believe it I don't understand what she is talking about.
the chart I am so blurr!
true, when one had won, one should stop gambling. Otherwise, one might lose all the winnings.
Fuyooo...
Nice pics of the dragon on stage.
actually it makes me wonder.. how does this feng shui practitioners learn such skills.. its so complicated and many people believe in such theory.. haha..
and they are making good money as well.. hmm.. i rarely read all these, but i do believe in some of the practice. =)
kenwooi.com
Lillian Too definitely has high marks for her earthquake prediction. After Haiti had its earthquakes, a nearby island, I think the Dominic Republic had a 6.0 earthquake. As for Obama, there's always that fear that his life is in danger. He's currently working hard to push universal health plan in the U.S. and it's not that popular. He does seem more stressed and worn out on TV. Sure do hope nothing bad happens to himself though. Great tips you posted, very useful indeed :)
Although its @@ to me, but its kinda interesting to read^^
i cannot understand those characters though i see two tiger woods there lolz... i wonder what will happen next to this Tiger Woods' issue.
I wasn't so familiar with the Crouching Hidden Tiger but i definitely love Avatar and 2012... amazing movies!!!!
H1n1 will strike back again? oh my according to some news...this virus is getting stronger and could be more fatal to everyone... Scary...
The Haiti earthquake is really not a good start for 2010...and now we will be expecting for more earthquakes this year,.... i guess that's a wake up call for everyone to stop abusing our environment...geeh
what.....Barack Obama is in danger.... i hope that's not true... we were such abig supporting of Obama... we have a strong believe that his political wills will somehow change the world and losing him will be such a big failure to evryone who's trusting on him *wink*
speaking of this casino... i never been to any casino in my entire life.... but if i do and i win i will definitely follow the tip no. 4 haha
finally im done hahah
have a great day Foong
When it comes to stock, I am not sure if I should trust Lilian Too or the stock market analysts.
Kunlun Mountain? All I know is that many rivers in South East Asia and South Asia, such as Mekong, Indus and Ganges, originated from Tibet. Political analysts warn that China can control the nations in this regions by means of building dams upstream. If this really happens, we all have to kowtow to the new emperors in Beijing.
aiyoh, when i read your summary, i found out that all three are not of my interest woh..
i was thinking since this is such a long post, shall i continue??
anyway, to show my support to you, i've decided to continue!!! give myself a clap..
anyway, i think the time of Lilian Too has passed.. now it's the era of Joey Yap..
you wanna know why i said so?? hehe, not just simply saying but somebody told me that..
a friend told me each Feng Shui master has a 10-year luck, so within the 10 yeas they will try to make the most of it..
so you can see, for the past 10 years Lilian has been the most popular one.. she even has her books and also the World of Feng Shui chain shops..
but now we can obviously see that Joey Yap is emerging right??
anyway, dunno if this is true.. but let's go back to your post lah.. hehehehe!! deviate too much~~
well ok ok.. it's the Bazi and the Flying Star charts again.. haha!! i'm totally confused about that.. :p
guess i really don't have any talent in Feng Shui huh?? haiz, too bad~~ :p
well, the interesting tips for casion.. hmmm, i always heard about the 1st one.. actually not even casion, infact any building also is trying to get the chi by huge grand main entrance..
so in order not to be hit by the strong chi, well this is also what i heard.. avoid main entrance, if there's only one entrance, then walk by slightly twisted your body to a side.. :p
hahaha.. and the last tips.. of course always don't be too greedy.. if you think you have had enough money, then it's always best to leave..
don't think this is quite Feng Shui related, but i always know there are ups and downs of one man's luck.. when you have gone to the peak, the valley is approaching..
hmmm, come to think of it.. look at my comments.. who say i have no potential in all these Feng Shui talk?? hahaha~~
Must admit I'm not into the Feng Shui stuff but man, you have compiled a great summary!
so maybe one day foong is not blogging about Lilian Too and Joey Yap.. but Master SK!! muaahahahahaha!!! :D
oh d*mn it!! who's the one who has blocked my continuous 18 comments!! so sad.. i thot of an auspicious 18, "satt fatt" leh~~
Good tips....
Haha! You save us a lot of money by sharing it here! ;)
Hello Lillian Too one of Hello favorite personalities, shares her New Year resolutions and her hopes and plans for 2010.thanks.
wah...i love ur casino feng shui tips...ngam me a lot since i am a gambler before...kekeke....yeah, i did read some tips on the casino feng shui....thou u follow, not necessary u will win money ler...
Great post! Thanks so much for all the effort and time to wrap up both Joey & Lillian's seminar and sharing the wind water thingy. Your 3 WARNING may not apply to me but nevertheless took a quickie.
Wow! L Too could be a 'doctor' to 'save' the world from Ahini with her magical scarf. What from I can see she is more of a biz woman into selling products.
All US President has that higher risk factor of being gunned down if he/she does not flow with the 'force' and L Too validated the cycle. Perhaps Obama should consider some bullet proof scarfs with mantras:p
Sorry, but I don't understand why North is at the bottom and South is on top. West at the right and East at the left. Is it a Chinese thing?
Thanks for sharing Feng Shui.
walao eh!
i think the most useful part is the casino tips. xD especially CNY coming, sure many ppl wanna be gambling lor, huhu!
lilian too is a fantastic self promoter and marketer. :P she has incredible knowledge, but it's her self promotion skills and presentation skills that made her stood out among the rest. :D
cheahs@n, still not digested the wind and water from Joey Yap yet? haha!
merryn, try again next time! So did William read this post with you? : )
manglish, haha maybe she should! I paid RM48 early birds ticket : )
borneo falcon, haha, that's nothing to do with feng shui : )
donna, thanks for spamming! ; )
lina, haha! Jump straight to comment section? Alamak! All my hard work putting this post up go to waste! LOL!
T.H, you need to have some basic understanding of feng shui and flying stars to understand fully : )
wenn, totally agree : )
angie tan, I like the dragon but too bad I didn't capture the baby lion on stage - that was really cute! : )
kenwooi, it's not really complicated - easier to learn than chemistry or biology class, haha.
rose belle, yeah the earthquakes came a bit early - supposed to happen only after Feb 4th...so probably more earthquakes to come in future.
I also hope nothing happens to Obama. Maybe he should get some talisman or something : )
kelvin, glad you find it interesting : )
bluedreamer27, about Tiger Woods, I guess we'll never know what will happen to him next!
Yeah, be careful of H1N1's second wave though I really hope it won't turn that deadly!
Your country support Obama? Well, I guess you better pray he will ride through 2010 safe and sound!
Never been to a casino? Maybe you should visit one, but don't gamble! haha!
Have a great day too, blue! : )
khengsiong, well I think you should listen to both Lillian Too and the stock market analysts and then draw your own conclusion ; )
Really? Beijing can control SEA countries by building dams upstream? Wow! China is really that powerful!
SK,wow! You are a major spammer here, haha!
Thanks for reading the whole post! So I'll give you a standing ovation. LOL!
Yes, it is possible now is Joey's era. Lillian had already made her millions in the past ten years or so, I guess it's time for Joey Yap to take over! So next master to rise will be SK? Haha! I'll take note of that! : )
Actually the Bazi and Flying Stars are not confusing once you learn about it - it's pretty simple to understand, well easier than Chemistry or Biology. LOL!
You heard about the front entrance tips too? So now you don't enter Sunway Pyramid by the lion's mouth right? Haha!
KT, thanks! : )
SK, haha your continuous 18 comments were interrupted! Never mind, better luck next time! : )
jackpot city, thanks! : )
june, I did, didn't I? But of course I didn't mention everything. Impossible to mention everything - that would make this post too long : )
shopping in las vegas, thanks for dropping by! : )
vialentino, so you were a gambler? Are you still a gambler now? Well, there are some casinos that are so heavily feng shui-ed you don't stand a chance at all even if you have some feng shui tricks up your sleeve. Genting's casino is probably one of them?
Thanks for the FC and looks like you followed wind water very closely. Hope you are not like my friend who followed it too closely *shake my head* which I would not let my life to be that 'controlled' and so rigid. EG today must wear this shirt color for good luck can close big sales, on certain date cannot wash car, on this day must eat vegetarian, today cannot crop hair, (understand Indians don't go for hair cut on Tuesday), on that day bad day must stay at home..etc etc
bananaz, thanks for reading! Yeah, Lillian Too is definitely a feng shui master cum businesswoman.
LOL to bullet proof scarfs with mantras for Obama! : D
beng gee, oh, that's just how the Chinese portray the compass directions. It's the same as the Western directions, just that they are looking it from below.
You know what I mean? If you take a paper and mark the directions North, South, East, West and then you place the paper above your head, and look from the bottom, you will see that North is now at the bottom and South at the top.
But when you practise feng shui this does not matter, you still follow the proper compass directions : )
conan_cat, haha, you can actually make use of Tip #3 ie sitting facing your good direction when you gamble during CNY with your friends, not necessarily in a casino. So remember to bring your compass, haha! And also don't face Grand Duke, which is the NorthEast direction this year and your chances of winning is higher : )
Yes, I agree Lillian is a good self promoter and marketer and speaker as well. She has that commanding presence when she stands on the stage : )
cheahs@n, haha I am definitely not like your friend. Even though I'm interested in feng shui and practise some of it, I am not obsessed with it : )
aiyo, so long post. lazy to read lor :p
super duper long!!!! lucky i dont believe in fengshui otherwise i would end up spending time and money on it
Affiliate Marketing On The Internet
Affiliate Marketing is a performance based sales technique used by companies to expand their reach into the internet at low costs. This commission based program zsuch as email distribution in exchange for payment of a small commission when a sale results.
First, I kesian the lion dance worker…. Why they need to do so.
Last time, my wife is lilian too’s fan… now she seldom buy the lilian too book… maybe she found that the feng shui is not apply to her.
Are you sure volcano happen to our country? Mmm
I feel that feng shui cannot use to predict natural disaster.
I have some not very agree with Lilian too.
I think don’t go to Casino is mean u win the money as well.
As nearly all websites and books say you should throw them away. Our circumstances are different to yours, we have hundreds of thousands of these cures and enhancers in our warehouse.
shall someone ask obama to verify her statement?!! haha...
saucer, haha I know this post is too long for you since you don't even put any words in your blog! LOL
fufu, are you sure my post is longer than yours? Haha! Don't believe in feng shui? Never mind. It still work whether you believe or not : )
somaie, thanks for spamming here. I don't like this type of spamming!
CH Voon, where did I mention that there will be volcano eruption in Malaysia? No volcanos in Malaysia lah!!
Feng shui cannot be used to predict natural disasters, but using the Bazi analysis you can actually do a forecast including forecast on natural disasters. But like any forecast, what is forecasted may not necessarily come true. Nothing happens by chance, and therefore natural disasters do not happen by chance.
shopping in las vegas, throw what away? Not sure I understand.
eiling lim, haha! : )
Foong, this is a great post! Thank you so much for sharing the details.
It's awesome that you were able to attend both seminars. You'd be able to have access to info on both types of fengshui. Again, thanks. This post and the earlier on would be good reference material.

lillian too is a thief, she stole people's work and sold it uncreditied for her own profit. read about it: http://tibetanaltar.blogspot.com/2010/01/for-shame-lillian-too.html
The Sheep is not so favorable in the tiger year as "Si Fu" negative star lands on the zodiac hence it is not advisable that you visit any funerals or Hospital ward this year.these actions may wane your luck for the year.do not be quarrelsome with others as getting into trouble with the court of law is possible.
happysurfer, thanks and you are welcome! Yes, it was great to be able to attend both Lillian's and Joey's seminars! : )
ridwan, please do not spam!
anonymous, really? Well, don't worry about it. If it's really true she stole people's work, karma will catch up with her. So it's none of our business actually, but thanks for sharing the info : )

I believe the staffs working for her are corrupted as well...
