QUESTION:
Is an attached garage to be considered in the bagua sections? We're thinking of tying in an RV and 2-car garage on the right side of the home. Our home would be rectangular and the garage would be tied on to all of the right end. If it counts as part of the bagua, it will take up considerable parts -- probably all or most of the right three sections.

ANSWER:
NO it is not considered living space.  You include the garage into the Ba-gua of the house only if it cuts into the floorplan.  So you are fine! 

QUESTION:
Why is it that every time I light up a couple of candles in the love/relationship area of my house, that is my bedroon, one candle burns faster or drips more and finishes first or just out of nothing the fire just goes out? They are always the same color, shape and twins candle holders? Anything I can do about it?

ANSWER:
I think the Universe is trying to get your attention. Instead of "burning up" the prospects for love, romance and marriage... try placing two hearts, two stuffed animals, two flowers, two pillows, etc in your Partnership/Marriage gua instead!

ANSWER:
NO... it will push chi out. A better placement is a lovely piece of artwork.
