Part 1: Ascent @ 456 & Symbolism in Feng Shui = "The Coffin Position"

1. What is "the coffin position"?

1.1. It is where as shown, here; part of the bed face the bedroom door. And in this illustration, chances that one of the partner's legs face the bedroom door:-

2. How did this come about?

2.1. In the past and even today, when funerals are carried out in a landed home, when a family member died; the physical body in a casket is brought into the home "head first". 

2.2. And when it is time to sent the decease for burial or cremation; LEGS FIRST! out of the main door/main gate of a home.

3. Thus this is how the term "Coffin position" came about. Where one should not sleep with the legs facing a bedroom door.

 

 

Part 2: If part of the master bed faces the master toilet door is this also considered as "the coffin position?"  

Type A1 & A1a:-

1. There are two differences in opinion, here:

1.1. VIEW-POINT A:- 

A: Some Feng Shui Master (FSM) would automatically say that whenever a bed faces ANY DOOR, this is considered inauspicious. Some quote this "the coffin position" thing. While others don't know the actual story. As they were told that this is inauspicious. To this category of FSMs, a taboo is a taboo even they don't want to take an effort to understand why.

1.2. VIEW-POINT B:-

B: Personally, it is my nature to first try see if there is any association with Common sense or not?

2. I found two considerations:-

1st consideration = Coffin position valid?

2.1 There is some logic in legs facing a bedroom door. As under symbolism, the bedroom door can lead towards the main entrance door and out of the home.

2.2. But if the partner's legs face the toilet door; one is "brought" into the toilet and usually even if a toilet has two doors, the two doors does not lead DIRECTLY towards the main entrance door. Here, one still needs to back-track into the bedroom and then brought out towards the bedroom door.

2nd consideration = Common sense?

2.4. Here, whenever we flush the toilet; water would be forced into the toilet bowl chamber and the air within this chamber would be forced out of it. Here the air may be forced linear out of the gap of the toilet bowl seat. Since the toilet bowl directly faces the bedroom door then towards the bed; this is less than ideal. Simply close the toilet door is acceptable remedy.

2.3. This is based on science. Here, if the lid of the toilet bowl is in the closed position, usually there is still a small gap where the there is always those rubber studs that is between the plastic seat on the toilet bowl that cushions it from the ceramic material of the toilet bowl.

2.4. For the above, reason, it has nothing to do with "the coffin position" but based on common sense.

2.5. Fortunately, the above illustration is an exaggeration given that the "spray" in misty red should not be too strong a force to reach the bed.

 

 

 

 

In 1966, the site where today's Ascent @ 456 Balestier Road is just a road away from Shan Road where part of Tan Tock Seng Hospital was:-

Today, there are a row of shop houses including Balestier Hotel acting as a buffer with Ren Ci Nurshing Home. While Tan Tock Seng Hospital is now further away approximately around 550 metres away at Ascent @ 456's 7 O'clock position:--

Otherwise, not much has changed.

 

Feng Shui suffers a bad reputation, today.

Many Feng Shui Masters are a Feng Shui Store. Their core business is not authentic Feng Shui.
But rather making big bucks by selling lots of useless commercial products in the name of Feng Shui.

Please give me a good reason not to buy such products. Here's one:

Okay, the above was written prior to the knowledge of COV-19. Here’s to another reason, why.

Many Feng Shui Masters and their shops are FAKES!
