00:00Ito, naku grabe, ang dami na nga pala nangyayari ngayon.
00:03Ano ba, paniniwala kasi ng iba, baka dahil ngayon ay ghost month.
00:07Alam mo, after kung marinig na ghost month nga pala ngayong August,
00:10parang, oo, ano?
00:11Yeah, yes, exact reaction.
00:12Ang dami nga raw, bawal kapag ganitong buwan.
00:15Bawal magpautang, bawal magdegosyo, pati kasal.
00:19Oh, what?
00:20Nako, e, nako, e, para maliwanagan tayo, mga kasama natin ngayon umaga,
00:23Feng Shui Consultant Johnson Chua!
00:26Good morning, Sir Johnson!
00:27Good morning, good morning.
00:28Nice to see you again.
00:29We've missed you, Johnson.
00:31We've missed you, Johnson.
00:31We've missed you, Johnson.
00:32We've missed you, Johnson.
00:32Parang, few months ago lang, no?
00:33Yes.
00:35Ayong, Johnson, derechaan na.
00:36Maraming nga bang minamalas ka pag ghost month?
00:38Maraming nga, maraming naka-experience po talaga pagdating ng ghost month festivals.
00:42Medyo down yung energy, medyo yin.
00:44So, talagang, more on the emotions, e.
00:46Yun po yung mga medyo nagiging negative talaga.
00:48Okay.
00:48Pagsa panahon.
00:49E, ano naman po yung mga pinakabawal, or at least, yung dapat iwasan tuwing ghost month?
00:54Pero na tayong tatlong bagay talaga, yung pinaka dapat lang natin badta, e.
00:58Yan, number one, yung start ng mga construction.
01:00Okay, so medyo iniiwasan lang natin.
01:02Kasi nakabulabog yan.
01:03Kailan nga ba ang ghost month?
01:05Starting po nung August 13 hanggang September 10.
01:07Okay.
01:08September 10.
01:08Baba din, ha?
01:09O, bawal na pag-struct.
01:10So, so, so, mapakasal.
01:12Ayan, mga ganun.
01:13Yeah, so, iniiwasan lang din muna natin.
01:15Okay, so, yung kapalibang ko na lang, October na lang, iso.
01:17Wow!
01:19Diglaan ka na lang.
01:20Meron nila, meron nila, meron nila, meron nila, meron nila.
01:22And, I'm sorry.
01:23And also, starting up new business.
01:25Yeah.
01:27And, I think a lot of the businessmen, alam nila, itong mga to, e.
01:31Yes.
01:31Tinatiming talaga nila, e.
01:33Bakit nga ba ang tanong at ano ang pwede natin gawin para maka-attract ng positive energy?
01:38Pag-usapan natin niya kasama si Johnson sa pag-ubalik ng...
01:41Muna ngirin!
01:46Mga kapuso, ito, pansin niyo rin ba na parang hindi na tumigil ang mga ganap?
01:51Tami.
01:51Naku, ay, paniwala nga po ng iba dahil ngayon ay Ghost Month.
01:54Para ma-attract natin ng positive energy, tutulungan tayo ng feng shui consultant na si Sir Johnson Chua.
01:59Good morning ulit, Sir Johnson.
02:01Hello, hello.
02:02Good morning again.
02:02Good morning.
02:03Naku, ito, Johnson.
02:04Ulitin lang natin, bakit ba sinasabing maraming minamalas kapag Ghost Month?
02:08Yeah.
02:08Ang kututusin naman, hindi naman talaga super malas pag sinamong Ghost Month, no?
02:12Kasi minsan pag sinamong kasi malas, parang lahat masisisi mo sa ghost, eh.
02:16Right.
02:16Okay, pero yung nga lang kasi pag Ghost Month Festival, mababa talaga yung energy.
02:19Kasi meron tayong tinatawad na yin and yang.
02:22So pagpanoon ng Ghost Month Festival, medyo mas malakas talaga yung yin energy, which is the negative energy.
02:27And ang unang effect ng negative energy is negative mindset, negative emotions,
02:32na minsan nakakakaroon tayo ng mga negative tapapinits.
02:55So paggabi kasi diba madalim na, mas more dark na yung energy.
02:59So kung we're talking about Ghost Month Festival na maraming spirits within yung mga ganun,
03:03so mga may mga nakasabay tayo, so medyo prone to accidents, prone to negative energy, like that.
03:10Pero hindi naman talaga totally bawal.
03:12It's just like maybe huwag ka lang masyado nagpapa-alone pag-isa na naglalakad sa daan.
03:16Diba yun? Para iwas lang din sa safety.
03:18Iwas lang mga sa date night.
03:20Oo nga, oo nga. Ano pa yung mga bawal sa gabi?
03:22Yeah, bawal din na yung mga in terms of like mga swimming.
03:25Night swimming?
03:26Yes, night swimming.
03:27Buti nilang malamig ngayon, wala kalak-balak mag night swim.
03:31Yes, wala kalaga.
03:31Puro tag-ulan eh.
03:32Oh, okay. Good, good, good.
03:34Kasi mapanuhan nyo yun talaga, diba?
03:35Pag tag-ulan, mga ganyan, prone din talaga sa accidents.
03:38Right.
03:38Like that, yeah.
03:39Ano pa? Ano pa makakasabay tayo sa tapang gabi?
03:42Sa driving, also minsan pinapaiwasan din natin.
03:45Kasi pag-driving din kasi syempre, yung pag-low yung energy mo,
03:49pwedeng nawawala yung focus and concentration.
03:51Mas more prone din tayo in terms of accidents.
03:53So, gets dahil pagod ka lang during the day.
03:55Oo nga naman.
03:56Pag nag-drive ka pa at late night, talaga may chances na ano.
03:59At maulan ngayon, so basta mga kalsada.
04:01Mas mahilap pa makita yung kalsada, tama.
04:03Ito, kailangan din daw iwasan ng mga pagdedesisyon sa mga makakalagang bagay.
04:08Ano-ano ba yung mga yan?
04:09Yeah, meron tayo kasi importante, mas lalo na yung mga like yung wedding.
04:13Okay, diba?
04:14Kapag nagpapakasal kasi, diba?
04:15Minsan ito yung mga importance sa buhay natin.
04:18Minsan kasi ang kasabihan lang natin,
04:20first impressions last.
04:21So, pag nagsimula ka kasi ng isang energy sa isang hindi masyado maganda,
04:25baka yun yung tumagal.
04:27Yeah, e diba kasi ang wedding is tied the nut eh.
04:29Magsisimula like that, yeah.
04:30And I think for those who believe and practice this,
04:33kasi ang pagplan ng wedding, one or two years before yung iba, diba?
04:37Iiwasan na nila malabang itong ghost man fest.
04:39Oo, ano pa, mga hindi dapat umpisahan.
04:43Yeah, so medyo iniiwasan din natin yung mga like yung mga pa-opera or surgical.
04:47Although pagka siyempre, pagkailangan, emergency pwede.
04:50Pero yung mga iba kasi like yung magpapaderma lang or something.
04:53Oh, yeah?
04:54Diba, like that.
04:54Kung pwede yung mga namang iwasan, try mo na lang din muna iwasan.
04:57Ipagpalibari.
04:58Kasi may kasabihan din na medyo malakas yung negative energy,
05:01mabagal yung healing factor.
05:02Okay, ayun.
05:03Sa ako na papagawin, baba ako pala.
05:05Oh, it's not.
05:07Maka mamali ang pwestong fest.
05:09Tawa, tawa, tawa.
05:10Iwan baka business is.
05:12Yeah.
05:13Yung business talaga, yung talaga medyo iniiwasan din natin mag-start ng bago
05:16pagpanahon ng ghost man.
05:17Kasi may kasabihan nga na first impressions last.
05:19So kapag yung first impression mo palang,
05:21medyo may mga negative curses na or bad yung energy,
05:25parang baka hindi siya maging ganun ka-profitable.
05:28Like that, yeah.
05:30Tsaka sabi nga natin, yung effect ng ghost man is more negative energy.
05:33Naka-affect din siya sa mga wrong decision making.
05:35Okay.
05:35And just like wedding, yung mga important occasion sa buhay natin,
05:38yung business, pinaplano rin naman yan ahead of time.
05:41So alam na yan ng mga business planners,
05:44kung kailan nila dapat simulan yung business.
05:46Hindi dapat nang, oh, eto, iiwasan talaga.
05:48Kailan na kung business person ka, medyo attuned ka na dun sa mga Chinese practices.
05:52Diba?
05:52Diba?
05:53Alam mo na, iiwas ka na dyan.
05:54Iiwasan na.
05:54Well, eto ang tanong na marami.
05:56Ano ba pwedeng gawin para iwas malas ngayong ghost man?
05:59Yan na lang, yan na lang.
06:00Oh, normally naman, ang pinaka-importante is kung prayers, okay?
06:04Of course.
06:05It's always works.
06:06Yeah, because of teachings kasi natin pag ghost man festival is we're giving respect
06:10or honoring yung mga spirits, the dead, like that.
06:13So giving prayers for them, okay?
06:15At also giving offering.
06:17Yan.
06:17That's also another thing.
06:18Kasi parang siyang charitable month eh.
06:21So pag when you're doing charity, you're doing prayers,
06:23yung kapalit nun also is blessings.
06:25Sa feng shui po ba, may good karma, bad karma din?
06:29Um, actually, it's more under kasi siya sa tradition and culture.
06:32Tradition and culture.
06:32Like that.
06:33Yung yung basis niya.
06:33Oo, yun talaga yung basis ng karma.
06:35Ganda na siya.
06:35But yes, may bilibo yung karma.
06:37Aho, yeah.
06:37Karma.
06:38Good or bad.
06:39Kaya usually pag sinasabi niya, medyo malas ngayon,
06:42ang gawin mo, good works and charitable works pala.
06:45Kaya nga pag nag-offer tayo ng mga food, diba?
06:47Like that, minsan it also helps eh.
06:49Diba?
06:49Kasi parang silang pinapakain din.
06:52Hindi naman nila kakainin yung mismong pagkain.
06:54Kakain nila the spirit of the food.
06:55Parang sipo.
06:56Kaya meron tayong mga like water or beer or wine.
06:59Yeah, that's also representing.
07:00Kasi may kasabihan tayo that spirits are also like the good brothers.
07:04Ganansya.
07:04So, pag napasayama sila, may blessings tayo dumating.
07:08Okay.
07:09Meron din tayo mga insenso dito at charms.
07:11Para saan nga ba itong mga to?
07:13Yeah, so mga insenso.
07:14Ito ba itong sinindihan?
07:14Yeah.
07:15Wait, wait, wait.
07:16Sige.
07:17Tagal ko nang dinag-insenso eh.
07:18Okay, para saan sila at kailan sinisindihan?
07:21Basically, kasi nag-start na ng August 13
07:23ng Ghost Month Festival
07:25and matatapos siya September 10.
07:27So, you can do this naman
07:28anytime on this time.
07:29Pero yung pinaka talagang prayer time.
07:31Not naman everyday.
07:32No need naman everyday.
07:33Okay.
07:34Once lang.
07:34Once lang.
07:35Pero yung pinaka the best talaga na araw
07:37is August 27.
07:38Oh.
07:38Yun kasi yung pinaka center.
07:40Yung add ko na sa calendar ko.
07:41Yeah.
07:41August 27, yeah.
07:43Yun yung pinaka festival day itself eh.
07:45Okay.
07:45Saan namin nilalagay yung incense?
07:46Oo, yung may proper placement po ba?
07:48Ako ang highly advised is
07:49you can put it like sa living area
07:51or dining area.
07:52Your main.
07:52Yeah, tapos you can,
07:53yun nga,
07:54if you have some food din
07:55to offer,
07:56pwede mo siyang ilagay.
07:57That will also mix the energy din.
07:59Okay.
07:59August 27.
08:00Yes.
08:01And also meron tayong ka
08:02mga cleansing powder.
08:04Diba?
08:04Anong cleansing powder?
08:05Yes.
08:05Ito nga yung mga may bibigas dito,
08:07asin.
08:07Okay.
08:08So, ang cleansing powder,
08:09yan, para turuan ko kayo,
08:10you can have a different ampaw.
08:12Okay.
08:13Any ampaw can do.
08:14Don't worry about those sa mga words.
08:16Siguro, huwag lang yung mga,
08:17ano, double happiness.
08:19Oh, okay.
08:19Yan.
08:20So, number one,
08:20kailangan natin merong bigas.
08:22Okay.
08:22Because the bigas is like
08:23a parang respect energy.
08:25Tapos, you can also put asin.
08:27Like that.
08:28Yan.
08:28Asin kasi for cleansing.
08:30Tapos, medyo importante yung
08:31incense powder.
08:32Oh.
08:33Akala ko paminta.
08:35Ano na?
08:36Anong bigasahin natin?
08:38Okay.
08:38Incense powder.
08:39Incense powder, yes.
08:40So, ito, totoo,
08:42kukuletahin ko ito.
08:43Itong incense na ito.
08:44Okay.
08:44Kapag meron kayong mga extra,
08:46like that, yan.
08:47Kapag meron kayong mga extra
08:48from the powder
08:50na naggaling doon sa incense.
08:51So, this one, sir.
08:53Yan.
08:53So, we just seal it.
08:54Yeah.
08:54So, kung meron ka ng ganito,
08:55you can just seal it.
08:56Tapos, you can always bring it
08:58the whole,
08:59month of the ghost month.
09:00Ah, okay.
09:01Oh, meron na tayo.
09:02Yes.
09:03So, this is our protection.
09:05Do we do anything with it?
09:06Is there a special place
09:07to put it in?
09:08Bag ba namin?
09:09Gamit ba namin?
