Location: Sembawang. These awnings shade the room windows. And the characteristic is that they are almost always installed on at the west facing side. Do not be deceived if you are house hunting and the owners switch on the air conditioning in the afternoon. This is a clear indication of an afternoon sun-facing unit.

1. What has this article: Monsoon Winds got to do with Feng Shui (installation of a partition). 2. Many homes install a partition so that the main door does not directly face a window or a balcony opening. 3. But does it matter whether the partition is a FIXED partition or one of those panels - often it comes in three or four panels? These three or four panels are usually placed in V shaped so that they can "stand-up". 4. Commonsense approach to Feng Shui says that:- 4.1. At times when it can be windy in a home, it may be a safety concern with such "moveable" partitions. It may become a "danger" to family members. As such moveable partitions (unlike fixed ones) ma…

1. To be frank, I have the latest Suunto solid aluminium compass set for Region 3 (Singapore and the equator). 2. But still; one major flaw is that whenever I am in a building with lots of steel rods for support (look at it this way: all modern high-rise uses re-inforced steel for building support!) 3. Surprisingly, such a low technology or LOW TECH brass compass is my saviour ... when I am deep in a large building that has odd shaped floor space and entrances much like those mega or hype buildings. 4. Many industrial buidlings have even more steel in their structures to support the higher Per Newton Kilo load. 5. This attached brass compass which I bought at a c…

Is it ok to place artificial flower on the dining table? Under the Holy Trinity of Chinese Luck system: 1. Earth Luck = Feng Shui = 33.33% 2. Heaven Luck = Born with = 33.33% 3. Human or Man Luck = Feel good factor = 33.33% Feng Shui does not micro-manage to the finest details. Feng Shui is more about location, location and location factors. What you are looking at has more to do with Human or Man luck or feel good factor.. Like, your personal likes for colourful and beautiful flowers. Common sense. This has nothing to do with Feng Shui. For example, unlike an office with an enclosed eco-system filtered by air-con system. A home …

Angular shapes often may look sharp or pointed. And may cause or create a Sha Qi or Poison arrow(s) For example, one look and one can visualise the sharp point at the bottom of this classic light:- The light looks like if it is hung in the middle of a balcony.. seems like a poison arrow or Sha Qi. However, although these lights are not rounded and may have sharp curves; it does not look anything like the above sharp point: Thus may seem pointy.. but looks more like a pussy cat when compared to the first illustration. Of course these rounded "bird cage" style lights are the safest .. to please the ultra-conservatives.

Further to what I had mentioned; 1. Always remember, a plot at a T-junction is at the mercy of "Commonsense" Feng Shui. 2. The test is: "Can a run-amok vehicle be able to slam into the property?" Yes or No? If Yes, then this is most likely as illustrated in the attachment a potential plot (in this case) a home facing a T-junction. 3. The assumption is that it is not a one-way street where traffic flows away from the T-junction. It also depends on which country one is in: a Right-Hand drive or Left-Hand drive.

For the Chinese, for physical burial, it does matter greatly what plot of land, facing direction of the grave. As it is said that a burial site can affect the decendants of the dead. However, in the event of a cremation: "ashes to ashes, dust to dust" it does not matter whether:- 1. scatter the ashes in the sea? No issue 2. Does it matter which direction, the niche for the urn should face? No issue 3. Does it matter whicl level or is it inauspicious to have the urn stacked above another urn or have another urn stacked ontop of the urn? Really, it does not matter, here.

In many instances, even if we try to build our perfect dream-Feng Shui home; there are often compromises to be made. Often, for convenience, we have toilets that are located at no longer choice location in the home. Or that kitchen stove could be viewed from the main entrance door. Thus we can try to build a near-perfect Feng Shui friendly home. But not always 100 percent perfect!

Dear Chris, To clarify, what rooms are these? Are these 2 rooms the bedrooms? The only other way at present is to close the door when not in use. Yes, if the main door is facing a road lamp, it is best to place a Pakua above the main entrance door. The following are other alternatives:- 1. Placing a semi circle carpet outside the door. Best to have a diagram of a sun's rays or spokes radiating from the centre of the carpet. 2. If your friend's house is a private apartment, one can replace the door with a convex door. A convex door is to dispell sha ch'i. 3. If there are steps leading to the home, one can use semi-circle steps. 4. Tilt the main entrance door to a …

1. In Professional Feng Shui, identifying a wealth corner or multiple wealth corners is based on a thorough assessment using Flying Star Feng Shui. 2. As many people know, simply focusing on one sector or following basic sector Feng Shui may not be effective. 3. For example, if a practitioner routinely tells clients that the wealth corner is “diagonal to the main door,” the chances of most clients achieving wealth through this method are extremely low. 4. Feng Shui is about enhancing earth luck, and it is better to try and improve luck in all areas of the home, rather than concentrating on just one sector. Another question: Is it helpful to place something…

1. Is this house considered at a L-Junction. (L-Junction and T-Junctions are quite similar form of sha-qi). 2. Yes, in theory, Yes, definitely this house is at a L-Junction. 3. But under Shapes and Forms, a further question need to be asked: 3.1. Which country is this photo taken from? 3.2. So what if this house is at an L-Junction. So long as Singapore's cars are "RIGH-HAND" drive; there is no issue with a Sha qi or poison arrow. 4. However, if this is in the US, China or many European countries other than UK, this may be considered as a sha qi. 5. Therefore, for homes at a T-Junction or in this case an L-Junction; do always remember "Righ-hand" or "Left-hand" drive veh…

Dear Rana, To confirm, the Northeast is your most favorable direction, while the Southeast is considered your “Death” line. Since we are analyzing this only using the Eight House Theory and not incorporating other factors or methods, we must, for now, view this house as the most unsuitable due to its death line orientation. There are four possible ways to address this issue (listed in no particular order): 1. Adjust the angle of the front door so it faces one of your favorable directions. This can help improve the overall energy and is often described as “killing two birds with one stone.” 2. If the main entrance is elevated, you can add semi-circular …

1. I refer to the attached example: Example THREE as the "lazy person method: or simply the no passion in work type of method. 2. Often, this method is used by some Geomancers who hire staff to prepare reports for them. 3. And, if one look at the attachment carefully, this method of finding the centre-point is indeed a no-brainer senario: Find all the corners and join each opposite corners to determine the centre-point. 4. I believe in this way, the Geomancer do not need to have their staff breathing behind their backs all the time to check with them: Did I correctly get the centre-point right?" 5. However, in my opinion; this type of method may be used especially if the…

1. I have always trained my mind to ask this question: "Has common sense to do with this question?" 2. In my opinion, you would be pleasantly surprised to learn that many seemingly Feng Shui or even Grand Mother's tales are rooted in pure common sense! 3. Currently, it is even an uphill task for me to try to collate many so called Feng Shui or Feng Shui related questions into one link. 4. Where it is pure common sense that leads to some thinking that it is some higher form such as a Feng Shui concept or theory! 5. The next time, you try to have a paradiym shift by asking the question: "It is just pure common sense?" You will be pleasantly surprised, when you figur…
