Dear Anon,

Sorry for the confusion. The Chinese belief of the 7th Month is based on Chinese practises rather than on Feng Shui.

Predominantly, you will find most Chinese Feng Shui practioners (in countries like Taiwan, Hong Kong and the Far East) following this practise.

Thus you will understand that this practise is not based on Feng Shui.

Some Feng Shui practioners e.g. those migrated to Canada or the US may consider this `superstition'. One reason is because their clients may not be Chinese and therefore feel that this is not a `taboo'.

Let me elaborate how most of us follow this practise:

It is because, most of the time, our clients would not move in to a new house or do renovations and have asked us to find auspicious dates before or after this month.
You will see that this is "driven" mostly by the client. The FS practioner do not even need to prompt them of it.

I believe, if you were to discuss with some Western Feng Shui practioners they may say that this is all `rubbish'.

I agree that this is not based Feng Shui but rather Chinese traditional beliefs. However, it is always best to leave it to the client to decide on it.

Warmest Regards,
Cecil
