Dear Jennifer, Palm Grove Condominium Both Palm Haven and Palm Grove share the same developer: CapitaLand. Both are 999 year leases. Palm Haven's lease started from 1/9/1876. While Palm Haven's has a better advantage since it started from 1999. Currently, this area only allows for low rise residential estate. Therefore, both Palm Haven and Palm Grove have low rise units. Each development at 4 storey high. Besides consideration such as the remaining lease time-limit and psf; in terms of external Feng Shui, the smaller development (Palm Haven with 48 units as oppose to 111 units for Palm Grove) has better shapes and forms. If one notice the attached site plan for Palm Haven…

Dear Judy, Under the Five Elements concept:- 1. Other than using colour, shapes is another consideration. 2. Thus, circle symbolises metal element. While rectangle or square represents earth. 3. Generally, white, silver, chrome or gold represents metal element. 4. If one takes a close look at a Chinese Luopan, one will notice that it is made up of an external square (represented by earth) and the inner plate is the Heaven plate. 5. The key to understanding here, is that the Heaven (Metal) plate is the key to our life. The Heaven (Metal) circular plate is akin to Heaven's Qi. The Heaven qi is used to conqueror or neutralise earth imbalances e.g. the square plate. 6. This …

Dear Lana, In my opinion, it is best that you dispel with "Feng Shui" for the time being. Let me elaborate.... If one is currently facing financial problems; the worst senario is to depend on the `type' of Feng Shui that you are practising. The majority of what you are practising is: the wrong type of Human/Man Luck. I understand many of us want to feel comfort by placing things in our homes, just because we read that it "might work". We can draw a parallel to some people who when faced with difficulties "drown" themselves with food. Placing figurines etc.. does not work! In fact, if we look at it carefully, all the best human luck is/are Free! I often mentioned that we …

Dear Anon, It depends on the distance between your main entrance vs your neighbour's (partial) wall. Often, 3 metres distance away is acceptable. Usually, it is best not to be too close because sometimes, the corner of the wall is like a poison arrow aimed towards your main entrance door. And secondly, it is often not too good because qi (air) flow is not smooth. What could be worse are the new generation Punggol flats. Some of these are corner units and the corridor wall is aimed directly into the homes. Depending on the situation, sometimes, potted plants can soften this effect. Warmest Regards, Cecil

Dear Daria, Please see the attachment. I used Smart Draw software to give a simple illustration: 1. Please see a sample `North' marking. It may not be exactly true North. But this is merely a sample. 2. I had placed a True compass direction's grid on the `centre-of-gravity' of the layout plan. This method is known as the True compass `pie-chart' method. Another method is to properly mark out the `zones' for each compass direction. Much like the sample `zone' shown in PURPLE for the North compass direction. Each compass zone can also follow this type of marking or zone. 3. Highlighted in yellow is considered as a missing corner. Warmest Regards, Cecil

Hi Anon, Yes. The Auspicious Date for 12 months uses tong shu and ba zi to find suitable dates to an individual. Included in the package is 1 Yearly Report which allows you to generate a yearly auspicious to show you which months are better and which dates in the month are auspicious or inauspicious. The Monthly Report does more in-depth analysis into a particular month. You are given 12 credits to allow you to find generate 12 different months for a single person, or 12 different months for 12 persons. How you use the credit is up to you. All you need is the Name, Gender, Date of birth, optional (Time of Birth), and which the month and year you are generating for. Hope t…

Dear Yew Hui, Please see below:- I strongly believe that Feng Shui is not only just the interior but equally or more important is the external Shapes and Forms. 2. Even if we are looking at the interior,we should also look at the layout plan. For example, safe shapes are layout plans that are rectangular in shape. Look out for the toilet locations etc.. Here, if one wants like to trickle in, a simple day curtain or even using sun-ex films can be used; such as an opaque film. Where possible try to find out what is the rationalefor theprevous owner selling their unit (if possible). Warmest Regards, Cecil Warmest Regards, Cecil

Dear Anon, Please see below:- Today, there are still some developers who had folded up. This is not just in Malaysia or in Singapore. A few months back, this developer had uncompleted development and it has become a breeding ground for mosqitoes. Therefore, any land, that has both good or bad Feng Shui, can come down with such a situation. Often, it is sheer `bad luck' which is attributed to the most common situation: downturn in business, leading to cash flow problems for such a developer. Why not, if an experienced FS practitioner finds that the land is OK. A towkay (rich man) may eventually, buy over this land. Hopefully, at a much lower price - due to forced sale…

Dear Wincash, Please see below:- In the second place, it is good that you advise the inexperience practitioner not to practise looking at dates:) Thirdly, even if one wants to stay in an abandon home; the only rationale I could think of are: 1. A fugitive running away from the law 2. Refugees running away from war 3. A movie company making a film and often, we find the heroes running into abandon homes. What do you think? Often, those who haunt `haunted' houses want to chase humans away from their domain (home). So, why would they want to follow the practitioner home? In the past, or quite recently, I had written about evil people who intentionally "breed" bad spi…

Dear Jane, Frankly, looking at most of the messages in this forum, I have this to say: "Gua or Kua is not a cure-all". Often, I find users quoting their Gua numbers and expect miracles to happen. Or totally disappointed that it cannot do much. I have often elaborated to apply the three-step approach: Step 1: What is the PURPOSE of each concept? Step 2: What is it's strengths? Step 3: What is it's weakness? There are two senarios: 1. Either the family has nothing better to do than to complaint or 2. Under Flying Star Feng Shui, most probably; they have #3 or #4 at the main door etc... Here, there is relatively not much one can do `to be placed' at their home. Other than if…

Halo Cecil, I am trying to position my stove, fridge and sink in a good work triangle and at the same time follow the rules of good kitchen feng shui. 1. My kitchen is in the West. Any problem with placing the sink beside and the fridge opposite the stove? 2. If the knobs of the cooker is facing up, the stove is in a neutral position? So does that means that the fridge or sink can be placed anywhere relative to the stove without experiencing bad feng shui? 3. How to determine the facing of a sink? 4. If the favourable sector of the woman using the kitchen is in the north (which is no good for kitchen feng shui), it is still advisable to place the stove there? Thank you an…

Dear Cecil im confused about the Facing Direction of my Apt, i've read books, some say Main Door, some say Balcony. My Balcony is opposite my Main Door & the Balcony faces the Back of another Apt Block. There is no traffic outside my Main Door as it faces the Main Doors of my two neighbours (but not directly, so no poison arrows). And my these two neighbours' flats' balconies (which is opposite of their Main Door as well - which means Same Facing as my Main Door) face the Playground downstairs. So do i take the Main Door OR my Balcony as the Facing Direction? i know that this is crucial in order to plot the Flying Star Natal Chart accurately. There's not really any pr…

One day, a man was `furiously' thinking of the `cleanest' way to get rid of his wife. (He was having an affair and his mistress had gave him a `dateline' to get rid of his wife.) The man thought of nearly everything but felt that he would most likely be the suspect! He truly wanted to plan and execute a `perfect crime'. He nearly gave up when, one night, he watched the news of how foreign maids often cleaned windows or put out clothings and accidently fall to their death! Oh! He hit on the idea! YES! My current wife fits this profile! She was a housemaker and her moto is " TOO CLEAN ". The man decided to call a friend to pretend to be a "Feng Shui Master". Since his wif…

Hi Cecil, Thanks for the advice. This is a brand new home site still unders contruction. I based the information on the blue-print layout for the property provided by the builder. The way all houses are built to be facing between two opposite houses similar to the picture I sent you. Based on your advice, I would look somewhere else to buy house. Thanks again for you advice. Regards, Rick

I am gua#7. Bedroom takes up two sectors. North (737) and NE (519) where remedies are in place. Forms support #7 and #5, although #5 near window. Bed is under window on north wall away from #5. Window closed at night time during winter, open at night time during summer. Very large bed so husband and self sleep with heads pointing to good directions, sleep head to toe. Only other wall is the south wall of the bedroom with ensuite on the other side. West and east walls have built in robes. If I apply small taiji to this bedroom, the best place for bed would be on south wall where South is 628 and SW 846. However as stated, ensuite bathroom on other side of south wall. If I …

Dear Newsgroup Guest, Frankly, if Feng Shui is to be applied, a home has to be Feng Shuied first before such advise is given. Looks like you may have to use your intuition. Or, often, seek opinion of your spouse and even family members as to which colour; everyone like or prefer. In my opinion, the amount of light filtering thru to this long corridor should be taken into consideration. For example, if the long corridor is often `dark', then, it makes more sense to use a lighter coloured overlay carpet or carpet that can bounce off more light. Then dark coloured ones that often absorb light. Another consideration (not Feng Shui)is that unfortunately, light coloured `heavy'…

Dear Anon, Look at it this way - Many people do not have the `previlege' of choosing an auspicious date. Let's put it this way: some choose dates is to `play-it-safe'. It should be considered as `nice to have' rather than a must. As mentioned, some people like to `play-it-safe', that's all. I can draw a parallel, to some young couples; looking for Feng Shui advise. They want or hope to engage a Feng Shui practitioner so that, they want to try to see if they can start life or try to start their life or hope to start their life with a `clean state'. In my opinion, therefore, as I had mentioned earlier, selecting good dates is NICE TO HAVE. And not a necessity. The t…

Dear Anon, Most likely, if a Flying Star chart is used in your home, it will often be `littered' with #3 and #4 (all these bad wood is associated with disputes and relationship issues). And many times, one may also see #1 water fueling #3 or #4. These can easily be cured. If you are new, please find out more about Flying Star Feng Shui. Or seek help from any competent Feng Shui practitioner. Warmest Regards, Cecil

Dear James, Often, because water is good at the frontage of the house because of the concept of `clear space'. If we have water, nothing can be built above it. This is also symbolic of a bird flying freely at the front of the house. For many Feng Shui practitioners, they are worried about `opening' the white tiger's mouth (wrongly). For example, if the water position is at the West (which is the location of the white tiger); it is symbolic of an open (hungry) mouth of the tiger. Where it is ready to pounce and engulf `people'. Often, itmay lead to financial distress. Warmest Regards, Cecil

Dear Cecil, Last Friday I visited a photocopy shop. The business is good. They have many clients. As I noticed carefully, just opposite the main door, there are electricity pole and one huge tree. Then I went outside to look at the shop. It has a two-step semi circular radiating out step. In fact, the whole frontage of the shop (3 story-building) has the shape of semi-circular radiating out. One thing I am still wondering is one fruitseller shop in my city. The business is very very good. There are streets in the front, left side and behind. Just opposite the main door (10-20 meters away) there is a big electricity pole. I don't see any ba gua mirrror or semi-circular ste…

Dear Sumita, Frankly, there are so many considerations in Feng Shui besides the NE main door. It is difficult for me to put it down in one forum message. The clue here is to: "Try and maximize your marks, in all areas - where you can." Warmest Regards, Cecil

Dear Ricky, As mentioned in my earlier e-mail, the House Number report is only meant for high rise apartments. In numerology, there are so many varied methods. But what is most important is how often; how many people `recognise' these numbers. Thus, the most common mass superstition are numbers like 13. And for many Chinese number 4, 44 or 444. However, while some people are supersitious about 13, some others are not. This is even the case for 4, 44 or 444. On the gate; there are some people like to symbolically raise the numbers if it is more than 2 or more digits:- 7 8 or 7 7 7 etc... Warmest Regards, Cecil Hi Cecil, Thanks for the quick response. My new house is a land…

Note, Added by Cecil: Please refer to my comments on the earlier e-mail. I stated specificially that I normally do not do this personally - as a favour. As I had expected, some readers to flood me with further of such requests. To answer your question: yes, the Auspicious Day report is able to check every day. And to remind you that it is Not Free. I hope that you can understand that running a website is expensive. And, if users find this website useful, please support us. - Cecil Lee Hi Cecil, Is the free Auspicious Day report able to check whether a specified day is auspicious or not? I need to check for for good days between 11 to 16 Jan 2004. I was borned on 09/03/197…
