Hanging an annual Tong Shu book...an old practice.. to ward-off evil and bring daily Luck.. A past belief... and a dying exercise... since mostly those who are now 60+ or older practice this. The young do not. IN SUMMARY " The practice of hanging an annual Tong Shu book, traditionally believed to ward off evil and attract daily luck, is increasingly becoming obsolete, as it is primarily observed by individuals aged 60 and above, with younger generations showing little interest in continuing this custom. This shift highlights a broader trend of declining engagement with age-old cultural practices among the youth." - Master Cecil Lee, Geomancy.net, 2017

Fortunately, the "spikes" of the shelter is not aimed towards any blocks or stacks. As illustrated by the red arrows in the last photo.

The "leaf" shades does fit the theme ...

No matter how; " 88 " is a popular "auspicious" number for the Chinese

A simple chart on a home at a cul-de-sac. Is this home affected by the Feng Shui of a cul-de-sac?

OIC! I forgot! You are most like "up there" in the Northern hemisphere.... (or down-under) Cold country.. Generally, the external walls can be white or light cream are equally acceptable. Common sense says greying combined with black looks gloomy...thus avoid dull Colours...

Rarely do we observe black roofs unless they pertain to the water tank, as seen in The Quinn condominium. Are you instead alluding to grey roofs? It is commonly understood that black surfaces absorb heat. Unless, perhaps, in a conflict area where such roofs might render the residence less conspicuous at night?

1. In Feng Shui, if this cul de sac is a service road: where vehicles can come into it; and make a turn via it: it is considered a cul de sac that can be impacted by Feng Shui. 1.1 Thus if you can drive your car into the cul de sac; so does your Neighbours and public: this can indeed be a cul de sac 2. But If it a no vehicle pathway then one can thank their Lucky Stars.

1990's HDB Pasir Ris motif.. Bat look-a-like design Or perhaps some may say it could be a helmet or a brain or even parachute or king crab or a Fan? Your Guess is as good as his/hers or theirs ... whatever right?

In my opinion, Feng Shui is non-religious. And many of the principles of Feng Shui is based on metaphysics. Figurines like Fu Lu Shou and it's close equivalent of laughing buddha(s) are very popular "decorative" items in Chinese homes. And especially in the 1970's many Chinese who may not have an altar but yet, do keep such figurines. Today, I have seen many clients who have several sets of the Fu Lu Shou figurines. The only difference is that they often do have one large sized set of the 3 figurines as the major display item in a home. And many other much smaller sets. Here the large sized set is often made of porcelain. While others can be in gold coated or other sets. Thus, since these are non-religious items; there is no issue in having one or more sets. But it would be extremely odd to have two sets of the same sized e.g. the 30 cm to 60cm sized side by side. As a display .. seems like "no taste".. at all. But no harm, here. Another consideration, is that often or in the past, some purchase the Fu Lu Shou to be placed at a display shelf .. and so far as I recalled, no one has place such an item onto a proper altar table or pray directly to these three deities. There are some who collect a few laughing buddhas and even display ( all ) of them. If one has larged sized Fu Lu Shou x 2.. and unless one has separate areas to display them.. may just wrap the spare set and keep them or store them away. As mentioned earlier.. all these has nothing to do with Feng Shui.

Case Study 2A: Can you recommend a ceiling fan for my bedroom? 1. In situations of uncertainty, consider installing a ceiling fan like this one. 1.1. The majority of KDK models feature a sleek and modern design. 2. If the ceiling fan has only one light, it is not a problem. 3. The fan remains functional despite having a larger center of mass. 1. The bladeless fan is quite impressive, bearing little resemblance to a traditional fan. While it may be costly and lacks a track record, affordability is not a concern for those who can truly afford it. Case Study 2B: How about designer ceiling fans? 1. The modern design of a ceiling fan like the one below adds a touch of dynamism compared to the traditional style. Nevertheless, critics often use this as an excuse to criticize its installation in a bedroom. 2. It is recommended to steer clear of a fan with multiple lights hanging in the bedroom when considering symbolism in Feng Shui. However, there is no problem if it is placed in the living room. 2.1. The lights frequently resemble three (3) or five (5) fingernails or claws pointing downwards towards the bed. Case Study 2C: What is the recommended number of fan blades to purchase: 3, 4, or 5 or more? 3. There exist two perspectives: A. Is having 4 blades in numerology considered inauspicious? What about 3 or 5? 1. Many Chinese people consider the number 4 to be unlucky, so it is common to avoid using a fan with four blades. 2. In Singapore, it is rare to come across a fan with four blades. 3. Most fans have either three or five blades, or even more. It is believed that the more blades a fan has, the better its quality. 4. Expert fan installers often spin a three-blade fan manually after installation to check for any wobbling. 5. Let's draw a comparison with car engines: In the past, a Daihatsu Charade car had a three-cylinder engine. Even some four-cylinder engines cannot match the smoothness of a V8 or V12 engine. 6. Even with a reputable brand like KDK, installers may need to add weights to balance the fan, similar to balancing a car's tire. 7. Likewise. Once a three-blade fan is installed, the installer may rotate the fan to gauge if adding a specific weight would balance it. 8. Theoretically, a greater number of blades often results in smoother rotations, improved wind circulation, and reduced wind vortexes. 9. Numerous high-tech helicopters utilize as many blades as feasible for sound reduction, smooth operation, and increased airflow efficiency.

CEILING FANS Are you the man-of-the house with no maid? This could be your arm! LOL - Cecil Lee, Geomancy.net Case Study 1: Would it be acceptable to have a ceiling fan installed in the bedroom? 1. Question Asked: How can the Feng Shui Master approve the installation of a ceiling fan in the bedroom? 2. Nevertheless, I was taken aback during my housewarming when many of my relatives and friends claimed that it is considered unlucky to have it! 3. Whose advice should I trust? 4. Do you tend to be influenced by others' opinions? And do you sometimes feel anxious when faced with such negative information? 4.1. The primary reasons for the negative connotations of installing a ceiling fan in the bedroom include: a. The belief that having the central mass directly above one's body, particularly the stomach area, is inauspicious. b. Concerns about the ceiling fan potentially falling off. c. The perception that the fan blades resemble sha qi or "poison arrows." 5. If one finds themselves uncomfortable with any of the aforementioned factors, it is advisable to refrain from installing a ceiling fan. 6. In my view, numerous homeowners of various property types have opted to install ceiling fans in their bedrooms. 6.1. Ceiling fans are cost-effective and have the ability to distribute air across a larger area compared to pedestal fans. 6.2. If the presence of the fan directly above the stomach area causes discomfort, consider installing it in a different location. 6.2.1. Nowadays, many ceiling fans, particularly the DC models, have a reduced center of mass. Alternatively, explore the range of KDK fans, known for their small and curved center of mass. 7. Concerned about a ceiling fan falling? 7.1. There are usually warning signs or a period of time before a ceiling fan falls. 7.2. In the event of a fall, the fan should still be supported by the wires. 7.3. Furthermore, modern ceiling fan blades are typically made of plastic or wood, rather than metal, making them less hazardous. 8. Based on my conversations with clients, the primary reason for their aversion to ceiling fans is the inconvenience of cleaning the blades. 9. Is common sense a factor to consider? 9.1. It is not advisable to install a ceiling fan in a bedroom with a bunk bed and low ceiling height, as it is not practical.
