This year it will be held on Saturday the 1st of February at the Chinese Museum in Melbourne and speakers include Howard Choy, Edgar Lok Tin Yung and Tyler J Rowe.  Dr. Jin Peh will also be a special guest and will be available to sign copies of his new book, ‘Four Pillars of Destiny – Discover Your Code to Success’.

Tickets can be purchased at www.intfsa.org.au and prices include 3 speakers, a tasty Yum Cha Banquet, access to the Chinese Museum exhibition spaces and the opportunity to see the world’s largest processional Chinese Millennium Dragon.

On the international scene, the IFSA held their 10th Annual Feng Shui Convention (IFSC) in Singapore over the weekend of the 16th & 17th of November. Titled I – Ching & Feng Shui this was a great event which not only showcased speakers from many parts of the world, but also provided a wonderful opportunity for our international community to network, share information and socialize.   

The 2 day Convention culminated in a Gala Dinner on Sunday night which was hosted by the IFSA Executive Committee and what a climax this made to a fabulous weekend. Delegates and speakers were wined, dined and entertained and much to everyone’s delight we even discovered that Grand Masters Tan Khoon Yong and Vincent Koh have a natural talent as stand-up comedians! 

This year the 11th Annual IFSC, titled Feng Shui & Wealth, is to be hosted in Melbourne by the IFSA Australia Chapter on November the 15th & 16th. Early Bird Tickets priced at AUS $198.00 will be available from February 1st and to register your interest please email president@intfsa.org.au

With our regular articles, Feng Shui Tips shares some wonderful advice from UK based practitioner Aroon Ajmera, which is sure to delight ladies and metrosexual guys alike as it focuses on that all important accessory; the handbag.   

In Ask Melynda our resident expert answers a couple of questions on the placement of toilets in the home and the effects this can have on the well-being of the occupants.  Please remember that if you have any questions you would like to ask Melynda just email us at enquiries@fengshuitoday.com and she’ll answer them in our next edition. 

In Classical Corner Tyler J Rowe once again brings us “Wisdom from the mouths of ancient sages to the ears of the modern practitioner” and in this issue he will be looking at the characters of the new year – the heavenly stem Jia and the earthly branch Wu.  What do they really mean? For the answer, as always, he turns to the classics. 

Finally in Profile of a Master we are pleased to sit down and chat with Master Jacek Kryg.  Master Jacek is the founder and main tutor of School without Borders www.szkolabezgranic.pl, which is devoted to teaching a wide spectrum of Chinese culture and has already benefited over 1,000 students.

As a Feng Shui advisor he works for many large reputable companies, small businesses and home owners. His Feng Shui  practice also leads him to consult and lecture at home in Poland and also abroad in countries such as Austria, Germany, the United Kingdom, the Netherlands, Belgium, Czech Republic, Slovakia, Hungary and the Ukraine.
