Gem Residences Overview
- Location: Two blocks beside a temple complex.
- Orientation: Both blocks aligned exactly North-South (0/360° and 180°).
- Facing Directions: All stacks/units are either N2 or S2 facing.
---
Facing Types & Impact
N2-Facing Stacks/Units
- Units: 1, 2, 3, 8, 9, 10, 11 & 16.
- Flying Star Issue: The double auspicious #8 stars (Period 8's wealth/prosperity star) fall at the *back* of these units, typically affecting the kitchen or service yard area.
- Result: Positive Qi (wealth, prosperity) is "wasted" at the rear, rarely utilised by main living and entrance spaces.
- Recommendation: Less favourable compared to S2 stacks; suitable only when S2 stacks are not available or if personal Kua matches North group.
---
S2-Facing Stacks/Units
- Best For: East group persons.
- Units & Special Mention:
- Preferred unit: Stack #15 (double #8 stars at the frontage).
- Other S2 stacks with good frontage stars: 12, 13, 14 & 15.
- Frontage: Entrance/main windows face the auspicious #8 & #8 stars.
- Benefit: Excellent potential for prosperity and wealth.
- Caveat: These stacks may overlook temple grounds/fringe, which some residents may wish to avoid.
- Layout Issue: Kitchen Position
- If the kitchen falls in the Northwest (**NW**) sector, it is called "Fire at Heaven's Gate" in Feng Shui. This arrangement can weaken the career and status of the male head of household (breadwinner).
- Solution: Opt. for units with kitchens in the **North or North-East sector** to avoid career and luck issues for the male resident.

Flying Star Chart Reference (Period 8, S2 Facing)
- Front Entrance/Main Window: Enjoys double #8 (wealth stars) at the front, ensuring best use of highly auspicious energy during Period 8 (ending 2024, but #8 remains positive until Period 9).
- N2 vs. S2:
- **N2:** #8 stars at rear—less beneficial as living areas do not receive the wealth Qi.
- **S2:** #8 stars at front—living spaces, main entrance, receive the full wealth/prosperity boost.

- Avoid kitchens in NW sector (Fire at Heaven’s Gate).
- Prefer kitchens in North/North-East for best protection of male breadwinner’s career/health.
4. Temple Facing Consideration: Some may opt to avoid units facing the temple fringe, but from a pure Flying Stars perspective, S2 with #8 stars at the front is superior.
