General Help

The saying goes " a picture tells a thousand words". Frankly, might as well throwa dice if you are asking whether to move-in solely on general (brief descriptions) - and usually, hope you understand, I don't usually have time to scan and figure out a whole paragraph of information. It is similar to a resume - it has been widely stated that a human resource personnel takes a "three seconds" glance at it; and just chuck it away.

Hi master, My family is looking at a resale at waterwoods ec. I have drawn the unit on the map and it should be facing the t junction. And also uploaded the floor plan and the unit I am looking at is level [xx for privacy have hidden it for you - Cecil Lee] Two concerns: 1. The master bed room, 2 room and balcony appears to be facing the junction. 2. Once the main door is opened, it is directly pointing to the kitchen. Should be no way to build a wall to obstruct the direct to kitchen from main door. Please share with me some of your advice. Cheers

Master Cecil, Is it true that main entrance cement flooring must be higher than gate door? Is for man wealth? What happen if i do sloop down from outside to inside? What happen if I do center higher then lower to inside of the house? What happen if I don't remove the hole lock at below?

Hi, understand it’s not advisable to renovate during 7th month. I would like to check if it’s fine to renovate during Qing Ming? Thanks!

Most expensive stacks in Adora Green. Photos taken on the opposite side of the pond over-looking Adora Green. Only when one looks at the photos; then one gets a "clue" as to why the stacks highlighted; seems to be the most expensive in the EYES of the consumer (purchasers) of specific stacks in this development. From a Feng Shui point of view; if one were to be at the Adora Green BTO site; one would be wondering : Why so expensive, given that the stacks are at a angle ; at the noisy junction? Another negative that some felt may be a liability is that these stacks are directly facing the Khoo Teck Puat Hospital in Yishun.

i have swords at home, where to place it at home

Thank you so very very very much : ) Now I can sleep better!

We are interested in one of the unit. However, From the main door, We kind of saw there is a sharp cones object facing the main door. We would like to check whether is the pics we took really show poison arrow facing main door. If yes what is the remedy.

Hello Cecil Lee, Thanks so much for providing such a concise and clear set of general feng shui information. I also appreciate that you use diagrams and pictures often. I am curious to know, if you have two windows next to each other (operable or not; I just labeled them in case it would reduce ambiguity), does the shared frame border highlighted in red below create a source of sha qi? Thanks!

Hi master, would like to get ur advice. Understand that it is best not to get toilet being in the middle of unit, but many of the 3 room units I m viewing has this issue in SG. Based on what I read, keep toilet clean, having a plot of plant, keeping the toilet bowl lid closed, will u think it is still acceptable? included the floor plan, level units plan arrangement (diagonal to lift, any issues?), as well as surrounding buildings (don’t see any poison arrow if I m right?). Direction for main door is N314-349 as seems to give different reading at different position. Living room window is 170 south. Staying myself female owner. Thank you!

Dear Master We'll be moving to a new flat soon, and would like to consult you on a good altar position for our Guanyin which we'll be moving over from current house. Pls see our unit layout as attached. There are 3 potential positions we're looking at: A: right next to main door, with adjacent DB (databox) which cannot be relocated. Width is only 48cm between main door and DB. B: with bomb shelter as backing, outside kitchen. ? immediate position adjacent to main door when it's fully opened All positions do not get the sun. Other questions: 1. Is it not advisable to have the shoe cabinet next or under the altar? Really tight on space to entertain this thou…

Hello, I would like to ask you, what would you say is the perfect bed placement in this bedroom? I was thinking against the window, as in the photo but wasn't sure. The problem is the en-suite bathroom and the position of the doors. That's why I was thinking window, but this also isn't recommended.. Thank you for your help.

Hi Master Cecil, Happy Lunar New Year and Gong Xi Fa Cai! I have a few questions which I hope you can help: I have read from your previous postings and replies that altar dimensions from floor to table top should be between 124.1cm and 128cm, the ideal being 126cm. May I ask if this dimension includes the 'base height' of certain Guan Yin Statuettes? Some statuettes come attached with a base (e.g. a lotus flower base) of about 10cm where Guan Yin sits on, hence, if we add the dimensions of the base, it will be 136cm (if floor to table top is 126cm). On the fengshui ruler, it would not be considered auspicious, is that a concern? Secondly, are ther…

Dear Master Cecil Lee I am confusing and need your clarification the following: My DOB is ; 10December 19[hidden], according to my Bazi: the Most Favorable Element is Fire; favorable Element-Gold and Wealth Favorable element-Earth And according to 4 Good and 4 Bad Directions: My 4 Good Directions are North(Water); South(Fire); East(Wood) and South-East (Wood). I have my bed room in North in my house, because North is Water element, could you clarify should I use the color of the cover of pillow and mattress in colors of Fire/Gold/earth elements?

Dear Mr. Cecil Lee, Recently, I have been researching on Feng Shui tips to set the fundamentals for my renovation design of my new property in Johor. However, there are some contradictions I faced, and I would hope you could offer your professional opinions. 1) Celestial Animals (Phoenix in front of house; Black Turtle at the back; Green Dragon on the left, and White Tiger on the Right) In particular, Green Dragon vs. White Tiger: I read that it is best to keep (Green Dragon) left side more active than the right, and the main gate is best to be located on the right side. However, for semi detached, the design is usually mirror image, and my unit happen…

1. Please see this illustration. 2. This partition is long and covers the entire main entrance door. 3. In addition, it is full height up to the entire ceiling of the house. 3.1. As mentioned in some of the earlier threads; full height and especially now that it is "air-tight" means that light from the living room cannot filter to the main door. Thus generally, making the foyer area dim. 3.2. Another thing I would like to highlight with this "air-tight" partition is that often for safety reasons; those sitting at the sofa area will not see who is coming in or if a family member is at the main door talking to a person or stranger. 3.3. Personally, I would still prefe…

Common sense says that it is good to have space below the bed. So that one can easily clean below the bed.

1. Feng Shui and HDB Keat Hong Mirage and Flying Stars of 5 bedroom type:- 2. N1 facing stacks = 59, 61, 71, 73, 89, 91, 105, 10, 121, 123, 138 & 140 with S1 facing stacks = 55, 57 134, 136. N1 has the auspicious double 8s at it's frontage. Good if the frontage has a water position. 2.1 Good if the master bedroom is located at NE sector. As it has good auspicious star combinations of MS#6 + WS#1. 2.2 If a bedroom is located at East is good for a bedroom cum study. 2.3 The rest of other sectors has inauspicious stars. And may need to be disarmed. 2.4 S1 The combined auspicious wealth stars MS#8 + WS#8 are at the "rear" of the unit. Such …

Hi Master Lee, would like to seek your professional advice on the below query. Is it ok if my king sized bed is facing my walk in wardrobe sliding door to another room? We knocked the wall to build a sliding door to another room. It is not facing the main door. thank you.

Hi Master, Many a time, master bedrooms contain toilets. However, such toilets do produce Sha qi and when directed at your bed, can create health problems. As such, many people try to position their beds to avoid such Sha qi. I wanted to ask what is the ideal position to put my bed. I have 2 options: - Option 1: bed in command position, supported by a wall, feet away from the bedroom door but toilet door faces the body when sleeping - Option 2: bed not in command position, no support as behind the bed is a window, feet faces a wall, bed not facing the toilet door and bedroom door at all so no sha qi Which is the better position?

Hello Mr. Lee. We live in the house that stands on the hill and has a main entrance on the west, even though the front of the house (visibility and most of the windows) are on the south. When we bought this house, we had a consultation from a Feng Shui practitioner. At that time, we didn’t know much about Feng Shui, now I am assuming that she was from Compass School of Feng Shui. She told us the house had a good energy and that the placement was not bad. The problem was the east side (dragon) because the house is on a mountain and there is a steep slope right next to it that goes down. At the back (North) the mountain continuous raising up, so…

Hi Master, is it bad for main bedroom to have odd shape as per this floor plan?
