Chinese consider the burial plot important as it can affect the decendants. However, once a person has been cremated; this becomes neutral. Even scattering the ashes into the sea is a non-issue.

These are some of the considerations:- 1. Feng Shui and Commonsense. 2. Yes, you are already aware that under Feng Shui; a home at a"T-junction" is unfortunately, not the best choice. 3. However, it also depends on things like: 3.1. How fast the vehicles can or may travel on such a road and it also depends on Right-hand-drive (RHD) or Left-hand-drive (LHD) road. As the way, the vehicle turn-in and out of the T-junction also applies. 3.2. For example, when we stand at the front gate area of the home. How "fast" and whether does vehicles are "aimed" towards your property before it turns is another consideration. Here, under commonsense; we hope that sincerely; one-day a vehicle does not PLOUGH into our home. 3.3. Thus, other major considerations include how much buffer one has i.e. the garden the frontage of the home. 3.4. It would be good if the property has a large front garden: and the "deeper" the house is; the more advantages it will be. As both under Feng Shui: sha qi or bad qi is buffered and reducing the bad qi. 3.5. In addition; under commonsense; even if a car does plough into the home; hopefully it does not come right in and squash the entire house / living room. 4. Many such homes with "T-junctions: often have "higher" walls / and even stronger walls - not favoured is too open a space. Worse if the property does not have proper fencing - just a simple lawn and open space - no gate etc... 5. Some apply "psuedo" Feng Shui or Feng Shui akin to taking a sugar-coated pill. Here, some feel more comfortable tilting their main door. And by doing so; they make themselves feel happier: by telling themselves "hey, my main gate no longer faces the T-junction. 6. In essence, it is truly hoped that for the life-time of such a home: there is no unfortunate - out of control vehicle that ploughs into the garden / home. Even if the probability is a 1 million chance; it is still a real concern - safety of one's family. And yes, once in a blue-moon; some cars or vehicles do plough into a home be it a out of control vehicle or a drunk or due to road conditions.. e.g. for those with icy roads...

These are some considerations:- 1. Usually you need to laise with two parties:- 1.1 the government body or those in-charge of exhumation 1.2 They will get in touch with the grave digger(s). In fact, grave diggers are more worried about getting the correct protocol done! As they feel that they are equally affected if they do the wrong thing! 1.3 For example, whenever those in the know; would place a canvas sheet above the grave before digging it. 1.4 Usually, a representative of the family would be present: to later give a hong bao (red packet). 1.5 If possible avoid bringing youngsters to the site. Youngsters upto 12 years old should avoid being present. Never accept anything dug from the grave. For example, some tokens like a coat vest button or "jewellry". 1.6 This aspect usually includes upto the cremation. Or for cremation some do get the services of people like the Singapore Casket company to co-ordinate e.g. visit their office to view samples of urns and tombstone markers and inscriptions. Some temples don't have elaborate niches, just placing the urn with photo on to a ledge. While others have a niche where one can enclose the urn with a marble or granite tombstone. 2. the temple 2.1 Usually, is to secure a niche. As often, the Casket company will help to co-ordinate bringing the ashes to their office. And later, one need to make an appointment to go down; help to place some of the fragments of skeleton into the urn. And later, the casket company will arrange for placement of the urn. 2.2 Some even purchase a niche for two or even more family members. For example, they will purchase a niche for two persons. But place the urn of the deceased (Perhaps Male husband). And later, the wife could join him. And the only thing is that the tombstone will be demolished and a new one with both husband and wife. 3. Feng Shui favours South facing tombs. And often South or south-easterly facing is preferred. 4. However; when we cremate a person: this is consideredNEUTRAL in Feng Shui.Unlike a burial where it is said that a good burial site canaffect the decendants. 5. When we cremate: ashes to ashes - Feng Shui is no longer an issue. Even if we scatter theashes into the sea or placing itin a niche; it does not affect the decendants. Whether we place the urn on the top shelf or sandwiched below it. 6. Somedo get the temple advice and engage "priests" from recommendations from the temple to perform some rituals. Here,some either seek advice from their local temple priests orespecially from specialised ones at the temple (temple co-ordinators for advice) As there are various denominations of priests : taoists to other denominations. These priests or some specialised in this area and should guide one along. 7. In Singapore, you can literally forget about getting assistance from Geomancers especially since this field is limited and honestly; don't often happen every day. So cannot be bread and butter type of career choice.

1. Further to what I had mentioned; toilet Feng Shui for an apartment or a stack of flats is less complicated than for a landed property. 2. This is especially so; if the landed property development has more than one level: e.g. two or three levels. 3. When we develop or help to develop a landed property, we have to always bear in mind which sectors are better off for the toilet(s). And more importantly, we have to remind ourselves to "superimpose" say level 2 (storey 2's) layout onto the ground floor and vice versa. 4. Here, we are looking out especially whether the toilet / toilet bowl is above a bedroom / bed or even the stove / living room / dining room / altar position. 5. For 99.99 percent of all apartments within a specific stack; the toilets are often one-up or down on each other. Never spilling into another room or walkway.

Nowadays, many developers seek the advice of geomancers on the macro Feng Shui of both the site and what is outside of the development. Yes, in general a water canal at the back of the estate can / will have consequences on several stacks in the development. And Yes, even the running of the drainage from east-west; and even how the drainage from the site towards the water canal has an impact from a Feng Shui point of view. Overall, these have very high weightage : Water dragoons / Shapes and Forms Feng Shui. Thus even if we do pathe our entire unit or apartment in pure gold - no use if the external or outside the four walls of the apartment is "condemned" or "corrupted".

These are some of the considerations: 1. Majority of the time, toilet is considered as a depository of sorts: we deposit our waste (or chocolate) and when we bathe. 2. Each time we flush the toilet especially if we cover the lid; micro-droplets will fly thru the air. 3. Many years ago, while driving along a highway; there was this radio episode where this fella was invited to talk all things toilet. He said that where-ever we place our toothbrush in a toilet; we cannot get away with some type of germ deposited on it. 4. So this wise-guy; said: we must regulary go buy his dis-infection tablet. These tablets are similar to those for dis-infecting dentures! 5. Many of us throughout all our lives have never ever dis-infected our tooth-brush ever! To normal healthy persons; such germs will not kill us nor give us stomach ache. Most of us have some form of resistence over common germs. 6. Take the case of babies. In the past, in Singapore and many other countries, when a baby drops their soothing teet; they simply pick it up and put it into their mouths. 7. Nowadays, we often see parents immediately safe-keep it and later make sure that such items are thoroughly disinfected or washed. 8. Is it better to put up or down the toilet seat cover. In many instances, it is better to put up the toilet seat and not fully cover the toilet seat. Especially so, if we flush when the seat is closed. Often, because of the pressure within the toilet bowl area; micro droplets would even fly further out. 9. From a commonsense point of view: What is so wrong with the toilet door facing one's bedroom? Does it mean or imply doom to the person sleeping in a room facing the toilet door? No right? 10. Placing a screen or even those Japanese type of 1/3 height cloth material can also be even worse-off. Especially if we do not wash it often. 11. Just imagine, lots of germs are attached to the surface of such cloth. And when we walk in and out of the toilet; we are actually "pasting" such germs onto our face! Oh My GOD! Leave that toilet door alone! 12. The statistics shows that we are more likely to be killed in a car accident; then in an air-plane. And far less or near to impossible to be killed by germs in a toilet! 13. Studies had even been done where swipes were taken from the toilet seat. And more likely your office work-desk and even your PC keyboard and mouse have more germs than the toilet seat! Peanuts my friend.. toilet Feng Shui is peanuts.. and lets not go to the dogs for it.

Most of them suggested closing of both doors, installing of curtains, placing of plants, etc. Though these maybe be simple procedures, i am sharing the apartment and i am not entitled to install curtains or redecorating the toilet. And the closing of doors requires cooperation since the toilet is shared. Wondering will the closing of just the bedroom door helps? I have read that by placing coins above toilet doors, however i am not very sure of this procedure could you please enlighten me on this.?@I?@thank you for your great help Regards

In general, more research need to be done further on this home. However, as mentioned, just by rule-of-thumb Shapes and Forms Feng Shui "It sucks!" Anyway, in general, such a plot may / could / should / hopefully have a rectangular layout plan i.e. from top-view or helicopter view; the home should be as rectangular as possible.

These are some of the considerations: 1. Based on Shapes and Forms Feng Shui; your father-in-law is totally correct. Especially since this home has a cone shaped layout that is wide at the front and narrow at the back. 2. Thus, if it is the reverse i.e. the front is narrow to the widest part at the back - it is not the best but may / could be considered. 3. Shapes and Forms Feng Shui has a very high weigtage and often such leaks are considered "fatal" only psuedo cure - and may not even work. 4. Typical or main concern for such a home has to do with $$$$$ problems. 5. Do take your father-in-law's advice SERIOUSLY! It is better to find a "normal" house then to try and cure such a home. Sometimes.. the question asked is "is there a cure if any?". 6. Personally, I would avoid buying this house ... like the plague. Or to be direct: GIVE ME FREE (STAY)also I don't want TOO!

Can you tell by my actions whether am I an East or West group person? For example, do you know whether this person in the attachment is an East or West group person? No prizes for the right answer! Why? It's too simple! Please!

One of the best method is often to allow qi to flow into the room. Especially if the water star "is close" to the window area. Simple thing like after a heavy rain, ventilate the room. Anonymous wrote: My bedroom has Water Star 8 (and Mountain Star 6, Base Star 9). I would like to activate Water Star 8, but I read that one should not put a water feature in the bedroom. Does that mean I can never activate Water Star 8 in my house? Does putting crystals help? Thanks.

Is there hope to find a permanent cure for the dreaded #5? Yes, No, Maybe, Never??

When the buying stops; the selling can! Our grand father, father's time don't have such thing... these people are the greatest con-artists alive! Don't be that sucker! Please spread the word...

Serve you right for making the kitchen in the home too large! I now fully regert the last renovation to make the kitchen larger! Regret, regret and more regrets...

Nowadays, this is one of the hottest services available! Many Singaporeans who use such service felt that it is more important to get advice before committing to the largest purchase of their life!

3 = inauspicious number of steps...

Guess what! I made a huge; huge mistake! I allowed the kitchen in my home to be much larger than the living room! I am now paying for this silly mistake! SUCKS! My wife is now called THE MINISTER OF FINANCE at HOME! And for me? I am the minister without portfolio.

These are some considerations:- 1. If Feng Shui is used as a diagnostic tool to determine whether it can or cannot help; 2. Such key success factors include things like:- 2.1. Ba zi analysis of the individual. As some individuals are better to work for others than to do own business 2.2. Earth Luck: A detailed look at the earth luck: luck from one's home and work / shop 3. The above are generally the set of Holistic Approach to Feng Shui. 4. External Factors: 4.1. Please note that good Geomancers can often distinguish whether a business can be helped by Feng Shui or NOT. As Feng Shui is not a cure all for everything even business failures. 4.2. For example, in Singapore, eight or nine years ago; many open those Taiwanese bubble tea business in Singapore. Some of these business called me to go down to do their Feng Shui. I told them "Don't waste my time". 4.3. Such business: low entry level i.e. with a small capital, any tom dick or harry could set up shop. 4.4. Singaporeans are not accustomed to "sweet" cold drinks daily or even twice or three times a day! 4.5. In the early 1990's many set up Aquariums selling those "Luohan fish". Again, these people approached me to Feng Shui their shop. I said "Don't waste my BLOODY time". 5. Again, Feng Shui is a holistic approach and in many instances: not instant noodles or "cure all"

I had advise her not to use it as a main entrance and kept it closed instead. It is fine? 1. Frankly, this is not the most practical solution unless your home has several "entrances" and there is no problem getting in and out of the home from other avenues. 2. It depends on the overall luck of the home. Some homes have relatively good Feng Shui and such a "leak" i.e. the main entrance facing a staircase is "peanuts". Or some homes can easily sustain one or more such leaks and still have good Feng Shui. While some other homes; don't have fantastic Feng Shui and all these add up. 3.

Despite the Beijing municipal government's two-decade-old push to encourage "green interments", which include so-called tree, burials, only 2 per cent of familes choose these cheaper and purportedly more eco-friendly methods of burial. Tree burials refer to the burying of body ashed under trees, flowers and lawns. "The earliest tree burial was promoted in the Fengtai district in 1990, when the local government held a gropu interment ceremony with tree burials," said Mr Jiang Xiaogang, secretary-general of the Beijing Funeral Association. He said the tree burials now use urns made of biodegradable materials, which turn into soil after several months or years, depending on natural conditions. Nearly 30 precent of Beiing's state-owned cemeteries offer the tree-burial service according to the Beijing Youth Daily......

These are two other considerations for those thinking of redecoration or minor renovations:- 1. If it ain't broken; don't fix it! 2. The Customer Engineer Concept

1. Based on the link, below: http://www.geomancy.net/resources/yearly-forecast/fortunes-2010.htm 2. Thus for this year:- Grand Duke this year is East-North-East, 60 Degree. - Avoid sitting facing the grand duke or disturbing him by having renovations. Location in Conflict is North. - Avoid having renovations done opposite the location in conflict. 3. Try to check whether have you done redecorated your home. For example; if you had repainted the walls or drill holes etc... 4. But if your redecoration is merely moving furniture around; e.g. move the bed from one sector to another sector; without drilling, nailing etc.. 5. Usually, if Compass School Feng Shui is used e.g. the Eight House or 4 Good/ 4 Bad directions; then try to plot the best directions based on this and also in-consideration the Shapes and Forms of the bedroom: as not always we can follow the Eight House due to the original layout of the bedroom : fixed bedroom door, window, attached toilet door etc.. 6. Often, try to put back or "restore" to original.

1. Burial or burial in a good site is said to benefit the decendants if buried in a good location especially with good Feng Shui. 2. However, once we dig up a grave; create the remains; creation is a neutral situation. The saying goes "ashes to ashes; dust to dust". Feng Shui no longer is link to nor affect cremation or vice versa.
