1. Does NW = Fire@Heaven's Gate affects everyone? HDB Toa Payoh Kim Keat Beacon BTO launched in May 2018 + indepth understanding of Kitchen at NW = Fire@Heaven's Gate. Affects everyone? - Singapore Property Review - FengShui.Geomancy.Net 2. The impact is greatest if the stove is directly on the NW cardinal point. 3. It is harder to cure if the stove is directly on the NW cardinal point as shown by this magnified image (below):- 3.1. This is the full Off-site house hunting report:- 3.2. Note: Above is an extract sample from a condo unit that will almost T.O.P. shortly. And not an example from HDB Sun Sails.

Case Study 4: Period 9 Flying Star Feng Shui 1. Varying Flying Star directions.

Case Study 8: Period 9 Flying Star Feng Shui of HDB Sun Sails BTO 1. Majority of stacks/units are either NW3 (West Group) and SE3 (East Group).

Case 5: Based on Estimated Completion Date of 2Q 2026 falls under Period 9 Flying Star Feng Shui 1. Majority of facing directions (West Group persons) are either NE1, NE3, NW3 and SW1. 2. East Group are SE3

Case Study 4 (For those who understand Flying Star Feng Shui): Period 9 Feng Shui where Estimated Completion Date (ECD) is in 2Q2025 1. There are many stacks/units for both East and West Group persons. 2. For the East Group: Lots of SE3. Very few and for certain bedroom types N3, S3 or E3. 3. For the West Group: Many NW3, certain bedroom types one W3 4. This analysis is in preparation of clients that are seeking House Hunting services from us, also.

Case Study 4: Sha Qi or poison arrow from roof-line of Drop-off-Point {DOP} 1. Based on existing examples at many existing HDB estates, the roof-lines often affect only the 2nd storey units or rather of #02-550 , #02-552 and #02-618 only:-

Case Study 3: Flying Star Feng Shui of HDB Garden Terrace 1. Estimated Completion Date (ECD) is 1st Quarter 2024. If so, the Flying Star Feng Shui falls under Period 9. 2. Varied Flying Star facing directions of:- East Group = N2, S2, SE2. West Group = NE2, SW2, NW2, NW3.

Case Study 5: Any issue if my unit faces or near-by to a Precinct Pavilion? 1. Stacks #486, #486, #504, #506 and #508 are extremely close to one of the PP's (962). While #464 is the furthest. 2. One day, I was walking near-by to a HDB estate pavilion and recorded funeral prayer "music". Which can be found under this link:- 3. Below: Stacks in pink #402 and #454 are closest to the PP. While those in green also are in close proximity and some like #448 and #450 has a direct view into the PP. 4. Strongly recommended to get high floors, here. Good to do so, given that the PP is only one storey high. And facing such a PP gives one a "clear space".

Case Study 4: Common Bin Lobby (CBL) and the two bins are in close proximity of the master bedroom window area. 1. Stack #400 is the only one in this development where the CBL is in close proximity of the master bedroom window(s). 2. As the CBL often is an open area ... not that great under Shapes and Forms Feng Shui! 3. Okay... some don't mind this because they always close-shut their master bedroom windows. And turn on the air-con 24/7. (Even bedroom 2's closed).

Case Study 3: Period 9 Flying Star Feng Shui with expected completion date of 1st Quarter 2025 1. For this estate there are varying Flying Star Feng Shui directions: East Group: N2, S2, SE2 West Group: NW2, NE2, SW2 and W2 2. And these are true cardinal points e.g. 0/360, 180, 270 etc.. What's good about this is that under Flying Star Feng Shui, it is close to 100% certainly that these homes's Flying Star chart are absolutely correct, here.

Thank you

Case Study 7: Less common interior layout of 2-room Flexi (Type 2) floor plan where the kitchen shares the frontage of the unit. And there is a shoe-box area for either a dining table or even a Hong Kong style small bedroom for short lease. Shapes and Forms Feng Shui preference is for the kitchen to be at the "rear" of the unit. In addition, if one meets a Conservative or Ultra Conservative Feng Shui Master, they will usually cry fowl of the toilet + WC beside the front door! LOL!

Case Study 6: How do you Feng Shui a home? Use the front door? Who are the conservatives and the modernists? Is Feng Shui only about the front door? True / False / Maybe?

Case Study 2: Stacks #418 and #420 does not face any junction. 1. Stacks #418 and #420 (at an angle) faces a continuous Bedok Reservoir Road. There are no T-junction or major cross-junction, here. 2. Thus no cause for any concern or taboos (other than traffic noise along this stretch of road linking Bedok to Tampines).

Case Study 1A: Any concern if I get a unit that is facing a Health and Medical Care centre? 1. Many of such buildings are often low rise (other than polyclinics). Thus high floors are preferred to have a clear unobstructed views. 2. They don't look intrusive. 3. More of a stigma than anything else. Thus harder to shake-off especially if it is out of one's control. 3.1. Let's say after the M.O.P (minimum occupation period) of 5 years, some potential buyers may (or may) not find it a taboo to buy such a unit. Case Study 1B: A close look revealed that only two stacks #498 and #500 has a side-view glimpse of the facility. 4. And that stack #464 also does not face the facility. Only if the occupants choose to look sideways to their right! 5. Thus kudos to the planners who had done a reasonably good job in the design of this estate in relation to the Health and Medical Care centre.

Case Study 2: Should I be concerned that the units facing the inner court yard does not have sufficient air-flow or qi flow? 1. There should be sufficient air-flow especially for units facing the inner court-yard. As both of the "twin" court-yard designs have sufficient gaps especially around the East-West or West-East directions or openings. 2. Want to know what is considered an enclosed area? 2.1. In Singapore, there are many examples of which just look at the Block/Stack layout of HDB Rivervale gardens: 2.2. For example Block 119A and 119B are literally connected closely together with just one open area i.e. of the MSCP Block 119. Identical also for Block 120A with Block 120B. 3. In fact the first generation of HDB Punggol flats were built around units facing the roof-top garden(s). These flats are the Blocks >100 plus flats as highlighted in red:- 3.1. This is another example of the entire estate HDB Punggol Spectra wrap itself around the Block 624 MSCP.. and yes, the blocks/stacks are tightly packed together...

Case Study 1: Technically, it is still safe to live close-by to the future Petrol Station as shown below, nevertheless best to play it safe if possible to avoid low floors of stacks #530 and #532. 1. For the more kiasu, then best to also try to avoid #544. Resources related to petrol stations: https://www.geomancy.net/forums/topic/7569-living-near-to-a-petrol-station-plus-fuel-leak-at-shell-station-in-sembawang-road-on-may-27-2013/?tab=comments#comment-15614 https://www.geomancy.net/forums/topic/17602-is-it-ok-to-purchase-a-house-near-to-petrol-station/?tab=comments#comment-40045 https://www.geomancy.net/forums/topic/14804-feng-shui-of-hdb-keat-hong-mirage/?tab=comments#comment-31068

Cases Study 5: Potential Sha Qi from vehicles turning into HDB Sun Sails from Sembawang Avenue. 1. Best to avoid units #02-101, #03-101 and #02-103 with #03-103 due to sha qi from vehicles turning into the estate.

Case Study 4: Is your neighbour a durian lover? Pray also that durian season is not all year round? 1. Excuse me, Sir! What has eating durians or all year durian season got to do with my potential unit? 1.1. Okay, okay. Not really. Unless your neighbour(s) has a habit of leaving the durian shells at the bin area. Instead of bringing it down to the bin chute area. (As often a plastic bag full of some shells cannot go into the bin chute.) LOL.. 2. Under Shapes and Forms Feng Shui, it is not great to be sharing the same wall as the common bin lobby. What more is the living room and front door wall: specifically Stacks #101 and #149. 3. Quite uncomfortable also to have a unit with the front door or lobby of stacks #109 and #141 so close also to the common bin lobby. 4. (Below) Although this may look not as bad. But having say my air-con compressor so close to the common bin lobby + yard with often clothes to dry etc... also don't seem that good. 4.1. For the above reason, try not to select a unit at #267. How about #269. Not as bad... but if there are other units.. why not see this also as a last resort. 5. Unfortunately, even if one is okay with all the above. In the near future, a potential buyer may think otherwise. There goes your hard-earn money as one may have to sell the unit at a lower price.

Case Study 3: Is it a good idea to have my unit facing existing private housing? 1. Okay for once, lets not consider the drainage reserve. 2. Stacks such as #261, #259, #267, #267, and others either face the yard or the sides of landed homes. 2.1. This situation is not necessarily unfavorable, particularly if one can acquire a unit on a higher floor. Conversely, those on lower floors must exercise caution regarding the 2nd and 3rd floors of these homes or may even encounter the roof-lines of such residences. 2.2. It would be considered inauspicious if the roof-line of these homes were to cut across or direct towards a unit's entrance, especially that of the living room. (This is difficult to remedy, as one cannot simply keep all the living room windows closed indefinitely.) 2.3. Upon examining the current landed plots, it is highly improbable that any of them could be redeveloped into a private condominium project. 2.3.1. However, if a few, such as homes 9, 10, 11, and 12 (located on Jln Derum and Sembong Rd), were to undergo en-bloc sales to a developer, then these private estates could potentially rise to 5 storeys plus an attic. Therefore, for 'insurance' purposes, it is advisable to secure a unit that is at least on the 6th storey or higher, considering that landed properties are permitted a ground floor height of approximately 4.5 metres. 3. Additionally, Stacks #255 and #257 are adjacent to an opening, namely Jalan Derum. Is there any concern regarding this? 3.1. Fortunately, Jalan Derum is a brief service road. There should not be any problems whatsoever. Consequently, traffic on this service road traveling from Jalan Legundi to Jalan Derum is unlikely to be swift (or intense!). 3.2. In reality, one might view this as a hidden advantage for the units at #255 and #257. Small-talk Resident of No. 10 Jalan Derum: "Alas! Covid 10. And now this!" Resident of No. 11 Jalan Derum: "Oh dear! What is occurring to us?" Resident of No. 8 Jalan Tampang: "I am equally frustrated! The air circulation has diminished. However, I am fortunate that the rear of my home (referring to the backyard) faces the construction site." Resident of No. 10 Jalan Derum: "Alas! Covid 10. And now this!" Resident of No. 11 Jalan Derum: "Can you believe it? It is a nightmare with construction noise and dust until June 2025, and it may extend further if residents commence their renovations."

Case Study 2: Is it okay for HDB Sun Sails stacks #131 and #133 facing this "junction?" 1. The above site map can be misleading especially since it does not show the whole picture:- 2. These two stacks are further enveloped by a slip road (in blue) and thus in this instance is not really at the fringe of a cross junction:- 3. In a similar vein, these stacks of HDB Block 302 Canberra Road although in theory faces a traffic cross-junction, but it is also buffered by a slip road of vehicles turning from Sembawang Road towards Canberra Road. 4. In another thread of the Prive EC at Punggol, I had mentioned that previously, I had a client who had moved-in to a unit that is facing a cross-junction. 5. This client mentioned that at times, it was quite scary to hear screeching brakes. And sometimes even the sounds of colliding metal. 6. It is not like such vehicles can fly into his unit. But rather, a feeling of unease and/or hopefully no one gets hurt.. sort of thing, that's all! 7. During the last HDB BTO launch in August, we also see Urbanville @ Woodlands stacks #207, 209, #355 and #357 which also in theory faces a cross-junction. But the fact is that these four stacks are literally buffered by the 2/3 storey MSCP that has an SM and FA/F incorporated with it:-

Looks okay. The photo on the right does have a sharp corner. But in my opinion not an issue.

Case Study 1A: What happens if neighbouring blocks/stacks are not parallel to each other? 1. This can result in Sha Qi or poison arrows from neighbouring block/stack/unit. 2. For example poison arrow: from #111 towards #153 from #165 towards #199 from #163 towards both #201 and #203 from #161 towards #205 Case Study 1B: Again, whenever neighbouring block/stacks are not parallel to your potential block/stack, this invariably happens: 3. Poison arrows aimed towards stacks #137, #139, #177, #179 and and #223:- Case Study 1C: Buying a unit facing neighbouring blocks/stacks? Do scan for Sha Qi or poison arrows (if any)? 4. HDB Sun Sails Block 370B Stack #149 may have poison arrow(s) from existing neighbouring Public Housing Block 303
