General Help

Dear Feng Shui Master, I would like to place the altar in the marked position as there is space constraint for other places. May i know if the position is alright? Thank you!

Hi Master, I would like to seek your advise in the placement for the altar at my new home. The place I have in mind is the one positioned at A, but understood from other threads that you would advise deities like Guan Gong for main door positioning instead. Could you please advise where is a suitable place that I can place the altar table? I am only intending to put a Buddha figurine. Look forward to your advice and thank you master. James

Hi Master, Will be shifting house soon but had a hard time to decide where to build an altar for Kuan Yin in my new place. Hope can seek ur help in it. Is there anything I need to observe when shifting Kuan Yin to new location? I read in your forum that we need to consume vegetarian on the day of shifting as well as the day before. Another thing is that I have some items of Feng Shui from my current house, is it advisable to bring over to my new place or leave them for the new owners?

Dear Anon, You can view this actual picture of a building in Singapore that is named Fu Lu Shou. It has the three deities or figurines: http://my.geomancy.net/mypictures/cgi-bin/imagefolio.cgi?direct=Buildings/Commercial_Buildings/Fu_Lu_Shou If you see the pictures carefully, Fu Lu Shou is `displayed' on the external wall from left to right i.e. Shou or Longetivity is on the far left. (This is where you stand in front of the building.. looking at the building). In the same instance, the figurines should be displayed from left to right. Warmest Regards, Cecil

Dear Kay, 1. Placing the figurines in the living room is indeed the most common location. 2. In my vast experience visiting Chinese homes, I have observed that the Fu Lu Shou figurines are typically placed on a display table, often on an open shelf. This practice is widely followed. 3. Placing the figurines under a waterfall is not a common tradition. 4. While some may pour virtual water on the figurines, I personally do not recommend this as it is best to stick to traditional customs. 5. It is crucial to ensure that the figurines are not placed below a beam and to adhere to other guidelines such as avoiding placement on the opposite wall of a toi…

As a rule of thumb; often it is said that best not to let the STOVE face the window (if one can / could avoid it). As for the rest of what you had mentioned; sink and fridge; this is considered acceptable. It would be nice-to have the oven not face the window or face a bedroom door.

1. In general, the main key success factor of a home that wants to tap the sum-of-ten should have as rectangular or squarish home as possible. 2. Under Para 1, the best case senario is a helicopter view where the entire outline of the home is rectangular and squarish. Thus, in essence, the 9 sectors can be "magnified" by this sum-of-ten for all 9 sectors. 3. Another key success is to have as much open space as possible within the 4 walls of the home. 4. Thus, from the above, the key success has more to do with macro Feng Shui then micro Feng Shui. Thus, be it a 1 level (storey) or 2 storey home, the best senario is still Para 1 (full stop). 5. The above is the key es…

Dear Anon, The placement of the stove should be placed based on several `rulesets' and it differs in each layout. Ideally, under Shapes and Forms Feng Shui, it is good to have the stove face inwards of the main door. On landed property, it can still be on a side wall (to maximize the layout plan of a kitchen). Besides this, other `rulesets' apply:- 1. Where possible, the stove should not face a toilet door 2. It should not be placed with an open window. The wall behind the stove should have a solid backing. 3. where possible (especially if the stove is located at the North compass direction) of the house, it should not face a water position direction (or in line with it).…

Dear Pam, Frankly, whether which is better, will depend on which chart will better fit the house. For example, if you have double 8 at the main door or facing direction, obviously this would be most ideal. But if your double 8 occur in the toilet location, then it isn't as beneficial. Same goes for the sum of ten. If the sum of ten occurs at a main door or facing direction, obviously this will be good. If both occur at the best location, then probably double 8 would be better as this is the reigning period 8 so it is the best stars to have at the frontage. Sum of Ten would not be as good as a double 8. But as mentioned, these beneficial stars must occur at the righ…

Dear Paris, Please see below:- If this intelligent child has good resources such as good family bonding and relatively good access to external (inputs), the child is sure to either top his class or futher pursue an excellent career in the near future. While a normal child, could perhaps be like drawing parallel to a normal home without a sum-of-ten. In both cases (in the above both the intelligent child and the normal child) has to interact with their external environment. And the key to the Flying star Feng shui is that it is not -static but is based on time-dimensions. This is akin to the parallel with the external environment. Thus it is good to have a sum-…

1. Contrary to popular belief, a home that may enjoy parent string combination does not automatically do so. The key is : Location, location and location. 2. Frankly, either there is some issue with the location: if it is a landed property: factors like drainage etc.. and other external and internal factors should be taken into consideration. 3. The cures or enhancement is not general to all. And, if you are DIY, then, try to apply the Eight House and Flying star Feng Shui: In particular, as mentioned previously in this forum see if you can activate: #8 current prosperity and/or #9 - especially for middle aged persons #1 future, future prosperity and also try to fix …

Dear Fiona, 1. For situation for pearl string and parent string or whatever, it is always best to match the layout to the flying star chart. For example, key numbers like #8 mountain and water should be in an appropriate sector. Therefore, ideally as many sectors can be activated for the pearl string to benefit from it. This is where hopefully, good sectors are not locked at toilets / storeroom etc. Thus, this kind of charts must specifically be located at the rooms most beneficial. The saying goes " a miss is as good as a mile " 2. You will still have to cure the star 2, 5 etc. The difference is that the pearl string combination is all about enhancement but this does no…

Hi Master, If the main door is facing 1 of the common lift, is it bad SHA QI? Any remedies?

Hi all! I'm looking for a Resale flat now and was attracted to the Waterway Terraces for it's unique look and convenience. As part of my research, I chanced upon your review of the "less bad" units in Terrace 2, was wondering if there was something similar for Waterway Terrace 1? Also, is the Feng Shui so bad to a point where it's really a no go? Or can we potentially fix it after? Cheers, J

Greetings Master Lee, Regarding drain pipes where is the best place for the drainage to go? Out the water area?

Dear Master Lee, I am looking to purchase a landed property. The house faces west and the back fence is higher than the front. My concerns is with a Government sewer line that runs down one side of the land, (from the back to the front). This Is a sewer line that connects to surrounding properties. It does not go under the house. Please could you advise on the negative effects of this sewer line. I humbly thank you for your help.

Hi Cecil and Robert! I'm currently looking for a resale flat as my first home and actually quite like the unique look and convenience of Waterway Terraces. Chanced upon your site while doing research as I think it's important for a home to have good fengshui. I notice that you've picked out some "less bad" units for Waterway Terrace 2 (https://www.geomancy.net/forums/topic/12776-hdb-punggol-waterway-terraces-ii-premium-flats/), did you do something similar for Waterway Terrace 1? If so, I could not find it! Would love to use that as a reference. Cheers, J

Hi Master, What do you think of kebun baru new BTO project - stack 123 (main door facing ne)? Stack 127 and 125 highest floor is 4, thus Stack 123 has west sun facing the main bedroom wall. Is it true that for period 9, ne facing is the most inauspicious? Looking forward to your reply. Thanks. Attached site and floor plan for stack 123.

I cannot shift the stove back to kitchen due to some restraints. Please advise whatcan Ido as I heard the stove &washingmachine shouldnot be placingeach other. Generally, the it is often not good for stove to face the fridge/washing machine. But this depends on the type of washing machine. For example front loading washing machine has a glass porthole. Thus under symbolism in Feng Shui, when water fills up the washing…

Dear Andy, LIM BAO LI ANDY wrote: I am being told that I lack the water element after seeking Zi Wei Dou Shu, thus was advised to buy a rat figurine(to place hair, fingernails & ba zhi, for the master to pray on, once bring home must place in a dark corner of the cupboard)to fill back my lost element. Frankly, true application of feng shui does not require you to buy items or any figurines. Most of these items or figurines are just decorative items with absolutely no magical or mystical powers. For such figurines, you can buy it place it facing whatever direction and it will still not change your luck or elements. True Feng Shui is all about understanding your luc…

Nowadays, many developers seek the advice of geomancers on the macro Feng Shui of both the site and what is outside of the development. Yes, in general a water canal at the back of the estate can / will have consequences on several stacks in the development. And Yes, even the running of the drainage from east-west; and even how the drainage from the site towards the water canal has an impact from a Feng Shui point of view. Overall, these have very high weightage : Water dragoons / Shapes and Forms Feng Shui. Thus even if we do pathe our entire unit or apartment in pure gold - no use if the external or outside the four walls of the apartment is "condemned" or "corrupte…
