Dear Anon,

1. Ceciling or electrical fan are considered `modern' inventions at the age where electricity was invented.

2. In some articles, it was said that an air conditioner is `worse-off'. This is because, usually, air is circulated in a `closed' room. If the aircon filters or dampness, fugus could grow and circulate within the room.

Furthermore, air or moisture in the room becomes very dry.

3. Some Feng Shui practitioners believe the rotation of the fan blades (I believe some feel that if they are made of metal) would create `metal' disturbance.

4. In my opinion, if it is a `daily necessity' it is still acceptable to be used.

5. As the ceiling fan is an economical means of `cooling' a room (minimal amount of electricity as opposed to an aircon), I would say that it can be used.

6. So far, there are few side effects from the use of fans (if any). If one gets stomach upsets etc.. it could be because of other things or perhaps that person is `sensitive' to the `fan'. In any case, the speed can be adjusted to a comfortable level.

7. All these such as use of fans are considered secondary to `Feng Shui'. There are more important considerations in Feng Shui such as good Shapes and Form of the home.

Warmest Regards,
Cecil
