There are many procedures to open the door, i am not too sure which is the correct one. Some say use pineapple to roll the floor,some sprinkle salt everywhere. for me, i got a shifu to come to bless and chant awhile only. didint roll any pineapplerenovation - yes, u also need a date to "dong tu". u can find this auspicious date in the calendar or from a fengshui master also..but hor, actually its all up to u la, i got some friends who didnt do anything also..

kajua 1 Report post Posted November 28, 2007 Found this Initial Opening of Door procedure on geomancy.netDid you all do all thatProcedure:1) Door open by facilitator - ALL call out " PING AN FA CHAI ", then throw in PINEAPPLE (x1 pcs); then facilitator hand over the keys.2) Prepare RICE and GREEN BEANS - Husband & wife (no outsiders except for own or family members can be around) to sprinkle ALL over the house- Mix the rice and green beans together. (Leave a "cup-full" of green beans - for later placement at the living room area).- During this procedure, make sure that no outsiders are inside the home.- For example, if it is a condo, the condo facilitator must leave the apartment. Own family members can remain eg. parents).- The purpose is to "sow" wealth into the apartment. Thus, it is not a matter of sprinkly lots of rice/beans but rather, try to sprinkle all over the apartment inclusive of the toilets/yard.3) Prepare FA GAO (x2 pcs - can be brown, yellow or pink). If white colour FA GAO make sure that a circular red paper to be stuck/placed on top of the FA GAO.- Place one FA GAO in the middle of the room- while the other FA GAO with 3 oranges and 1 red packet with some money e.g. 2 dollars, 20 cents or 80 cents will do - on top of the kitchen stove.4) Prepare 5 types of FRUITS (include the PINEAPPLE, ffice:smarttags" />ORANGE/ KUM, RED APPLES, RED GRAPES, BANANA). AVOID: PEARS ONLY.- Grapes should preferably be purple or reddish. But not green or black coloured grapes.- for countable fruits such as oranges (Kum) & apples please purchase 5 each to be placed in the middle of the living room. For a bunch like banana, or grapes, no need to count.5) Prepare TEA LEAVES (tie kuan yin) and place it in the middle of the living room.6) Prepare COTTON WOOL, WATER and a DISH for germinating the GREEN BEANS and place it in the middle of the living room.Item# 3 - 6 : These are to be placed at the middle of the living room.7) In addition, at the 4 corners of the LIVING & DINING room, place a set of 2x ORANGES + 1x Red Packet of 20cts - total : ORANGES x8 + RED PACKETs x48) In addition, at the KITCHEN, place FA GAO x1 and ORANGES x3 on the stove.- with an ang pow with 20cents or 2 dollars or even number notes/coins will do.- Do not sweep the floor on the three days of placement. For example, if placed on Saturday, only sweep the floor after Monday i.e. from next Tuesday onwards ONLY.- After this date, all the ang pow money can be used to purchase sweets or sweet-drinks for own family consumption.
