1. Suntec.jpg - Is a huge "city" complex in Singapore in the shape of a hand. The concept of symbolism is used in building this complex. This concept uses a hand with the fingers (representing 5 office tower blocks pointing towards the sky) and the palm with the fountain captures wealth i.e. with water flowing into the palm: 1.1 Blue squares - represent Five tower blocks representing a person's five fingers.

The attached window design feature: Casement windows encased by a distinct rectangular `protruding' enclosed brick shape sloping design was popular in the early 1970's. Many semi-detached and bungalow homes both in Singapore and Malaysia feature such an iconic design. Slowly as many owners redesign or do A&A works, such designs are disappearing gradually. As often, such homes are considered relatively "new" i.e. 30 to 40 years old and not worth conserving, yet. From a Feng Shui point of view, it is a stable design as rectangle represents the earth element. While circle designs during that era (1970's are rare and least desirable for large window openings). Often, th…

Yu Huang Gong, Temple of Heavenly Jade Emperor (the former Keng Teck Whay Building), 150 Telok Ayer Street A milestone was marked in Singapore's heritage history on 31 March 2010; Taoist Mission (Singapore) became the new owner of the "Keng Teck Whay" a Singapore's National Heritage Monument situated at 150 Telok Ayer Street amidst the heart of the financial district.

1. Although all the table tops comes from the "earth" itself; colours does play a significant part in identifying which of the five elements the table-top materials (and colours) are made-off. 2. Distinct colours like:- Green = wood element Red = fire element Violet (purple) = fire element Water = blue or black 3. Some other colours are harder to differentiate. Some colours show up differently under lighting; lightining tones : cool day light; warm lights. 4. Colours especially brown or brownish (wood element)is often associated with tones of yellow or cream colour (earth element). There is really no right or wrong answers, here. 5. Some of the brownish with cre…

If one has one's own garden, it is advisable not to anyhow place unknown scultures such as those in some of the pictures taken in the Imperial garden. This is because; under symbolism in Feng Shui, we try to avoid any objects that may look like "hungry mouths" or monster looking figurines.... these are considered inauspicous especially if their mouths are aimed towards one's home.

Jewelry of the Ming period More than 200 pieces of jewelry were unearthed from Ding Ling. Majority are hair pins and eardrops; made with gold, silver, pearl and precious stones. The patterns on these items are mostly of good luck and happiness. The workmanship is superb, almost reaching near perfection.

Again, this is pure commonsense that if we can avoid; try to avoid staying near to petrol stations. Where possible, since this new estate: Compassvale Beacon does not have any units on the ground level; try to avoid staying on the second or even third level; as a safety precaution against vapour or fumes from the daily pumping of petrol / diesel and the storage and filling up by petrol tanks..

Aloe Vera originates from North Africa. And some even call it "The Mother of all Miracle Plants!" Aloe vera is very popular as it is called the Elastoplast or a First Aid buddy. Thus it is used if one has cuts or even insect bites or even as a sun-block (sun-screen). It is also popularly used in skin care, shampoos and even as a refreshing drink that holds chunks of aloe vera. In ancient times, in Egypt, it is one of the ingredients or items used for embalming! Do be careful, if you walk along Kovan Road... as the owner of the home has planted a whole garden full of Aloe Vera plants both in his garden as well as this field of five-foot-way grass verge!

This picture shows circular steps radiating outwards to ward of poision arrows or sha. This is similar to the Ming Tang or a circular pool of water outside a building radiating outwards. Similarly, one can cut a piece of carpet to be placed at the Main Entrance door to ward of a poision arrow. Warmest Regards Cecil
