Choa Chu Kang Combined Temple with Leng Hup San Chee Chea Temple
Cecil Lee replied to Cecil Lee's topic in Around Singapore

Most stretches of the CTE is known to be a straight highway. This unlikely to become a Sha qi or poison arrow. Unlike this example:- It is now or often whether one can endure the traffic noise especially peak hours of the day. And this also depends on the level and distance to the CTE. Most likely level 17 is better off than lower floors. It is wise to visit the premises at peak hours if the day. As a recent client has found after her first visit on a Sunday is like night and day on a busy peak traffic. P.S. Movie cannot be played, here

1. If one has the time, please read this to understand the thinking behind a conservative Feng Shui Master, first to get a flavour of my reply. 2. Just last year a client told me that they previously engaged a Feng Shui Master (not nice to name his name). 3. This client told me that their former Master told them that he will always use the main door and that all HDB flats have poor Feng Shui because of the main door position. 4. That was enough for this client to search for another Feng Shui Master. Thus they engaged me. 5. Don't be surprised that in Singapore there are still a high percentage of Feng Shui Masters who only eat, sleep, wake-up and eat and sleep FOR the Main door only. 6. If one meets such a person and if the potential buyer brings such a Feng Shui Master to this home, GOOD LUCK! to you! 7. In Singapore, somehow many still think that Feng Shui has to do with the main door. And even today, I believe roughly 70% of Singaporeans still (have a vague) idea that the Frontage of the home is the Feng Shui from the main door. 8. If few have read my link and the rationale of Feng Shui is about the Frontage and for high-rise, it is often the location with the most windows. Thus most of the time, this should be like standing at the living room balcony looking outwards. 9. Thus if one only eats and sleeps with the notion of Main Entrance Door as the Feng Shui, and worse, confronted with the Rubbish bin next to it. (It does not matter if there is a door to this rubbish bin). 10. In some of the articles on the common bin, I had also made common sense concerns: especially if one encounters inconsiderate neighbours. 11. For a condo and EC, most if not all (other than Hillion); these common bins are just built into a shallow wall. There is no luxury of a large lobby to house the common bins. 12. Thus if an inconsiderate neighour leaves things at the bin, it may just be beside this unit's main door. Or that the neigbour's waste liquid drips pass your front door x a few neighbours. 13. One cannot thus stand at one's main door whole day to confront that neighbour. A case of "High Noon" and lead to bad blood. I am not saying that this is common. But don't be the unlucky one. LOL 14. The bad news is that once a person has grown with a stigma, often, it is very difficult to convince or shake-it-off. All I have to say is "GOOD LUCK TO YOU"

These are some considerations: 1. When we look at homes with two or more levels we need to visually stack level 1 with level 2. And even level 2 with level 3. 1.1. For example, when we superimpose level 1 (or ground floor) with level 2, it is good that at least the protruding toilet and it's WC is not directly above the main entrance door or directly above the supposed location of the sofa. 1.2. Another consideration is the stove should not be directly above a bed. (Not perfect but above a study is acceptable) 1.3. If one has an altar at level 1 (ground floor); avoid a WC directly above it at level 2. 1.4. For the stove, try to avoid sewerage pipes/toilet above it, also. 1.5. For comparing levels 2 with 3, again things like a bed at level 2 should not have a toilet or wc pipes directly above the bed-head. 2. In Singapore, there are quite a number of homes where the master bedroom or junior master has a toilet either at your house's main door side or close-by to your current master bathroom. 2.1. You wrote: "Is it bad feng shui and how to resolve it. Thank you." 2.2. As mentioned earlier, in general, on it's own is not a fatal error. 2.3. Feng Shui is more to this, than just the protusion. 2.4. One needs to do Habit Number 1 to have a clearer picture. Habits 2 and 3 follow this etc... Reference;

Case Study 5: Any issue with the location of the Common Bins / Bin Lobby? 1. Cannot find any fault with sampling of the location of Common Bins/ Bin Lobby. 2. Virtually find this type of arrangement as far back as when HDB introduced the Common Bin lobby. 3. Traditionally, if one can as shown below, able to draw a circle and find the Lifts, staircase and common bins in that circle, this implies the most practical arrangement. 4. Looks like the entrance to the common bin lobby directly faces stack 702's main entrance door. And if one stands at the main door of stack 700, it is possible to see into the bin entrance lobby + the two common bins.

Case Study 2: Type 1 and Type 2 Sha Qi / Poison arrow 1. Type 1 Sha Qi / Poison Arrow: 1.1. The poison arrow is straight forward. 1.2. Here, there is a sharp corner of stack 118 aimed towards stack 110. 1.3. The only way to be 100% certain is to be on-site to assess the situation. 1.4. If it is aimed towards the living room windows, harder to cure given that it is not possible to e.g. draw the day curtain 24/7. 2. Type 2 Sha Qi 2.1. This is where stack 146 has sha qi coming from 124 towards it. And in this case, definitely for sure is aimed towards 146's living room. 3. If one has the time, more examples of the Type 2 Sha Qi can be found under this link:-

Case Study 4: Any issue if my home is next to a Health and Medical Care centre? "Sometimes it is a case where it is good to have a Health and Medical Care centre nearby. But definitely not so close to my home!" 1. One word: "Stigma":- 2. One consolation is that it is not a hospital. But post COVID-19 days, some of us may feel uncomfortable with a Medical Care centre as by definition, this is a place where someone comes to seek some kind of medical help. 3. In the past, we hear things like vehicles should keep at least 1 metre distance from a cyclists on a road. 4. In today's world of infectious virus, some of us may feel uncomfortable with people arriving at our door steps, outsiders and their pedestrian traffic passing through our home...

Case Study 3: Are unit address like 614, 644 or 666 unlucky? 1. Feng Shui has more to do with the landforms, the landscape, the site and the property in question. 2. Numbers has more to do with numerology. Unfortunately, there are many different formulas and interpetation of a number. 3. Mathematically, it is more like a 50/50 chance each time one wants to determine whether from such formulas whether it is good or bad. Much like fliping a coin: Heads or Tails thing. 4. Most of the time, a number can be considered auspicious or inauspicious depends on rooted cultural preference. 5. For example, it is a well known fact that many Catonese dialect group associate the phonetic sound of 4 in Cantonese to their own language as "DIE". 5.1. In such an instance, 614 where 1 = again means "immediately" and 4 = die. Thus 14 implies "Quick to die". And "44" means "Die die". 6. Perhaps some Christians are superstitious of a number like 666 = to them, it is the devil's number. While to others neutral or even lucky. 6.1. For example, the Hokkiens associate a number "6" as LUCK or to them it is a lucky number. Thus don't be surprise if they like 666 = Luck, luck and erh.. more luck! 7. If you were to search past forum messages, I had also mentioned that till today, Singapore Airlines (SIA) has always excluded seat number 13. Thus if one board an SIA plane; either the First Class or Business Class seats, the seating will have a 12 then 14. 8. Here, do treat the numbers as "One man's meat is another person's poison!". 9. Locally, in Singapore, again this is not Feng Shui, popular numbers in this estate would also include numbers like 618 (Luck-want-to-Prosper) and 688 (Luck-Prosper-Prosper).

Case Study 2: Common sense Feng Shui - Don't like traffic noise? Erh... don't select me! 1. If so try to avoid lower floors especially of stack 708 and 710. 2. Do also expect some traffic noise for stack 712 and even 706. 3. It is good that there is a reserve site for future high-rise development which hopefully acts as a buffer. 4. Unfortunately, often the areas marked by blue X and the green zone often would be open space areas of that future high-rise development. Thus will not offer sound buffer protection especially for stack 708. Or simply, don't hope for this to ever happen.

1. The concept originates from the idea of placing timber between the sink and stove. 2. Impractical in a HDB flat or a condo unit primarily due to space limitations. 3. Some individuals even consider donning a green apron or green attire while cooking. However, this is deemed insignificant or not very effective. 3.1. It can be likened to a "pseudo" or superficial solution. 4. Typically, most households can manage with a stove positioned opposite a sink. Many residences have adequate space for such an arrangement. In fact, a home often adheres to Feng Shui principles when there are at least three or more significant "leaks". 4.1. For instance, if one is unable or unwilling to relocate the stove or sink, then the issue you mentioned is more related to Habit Number 12: Head Banger. 4.2. Other Feng Shui practices such as Practice 1: FS Assessment, 2: Repairing other issues, 3: Enhancing the overall energy flow in different sections of the house serve as a beneficial safeguard. Reference resource:- 5.1. Last week, I had clients who went House Hunting at two ECs: Whitewater (Pasir Ris) and Chestervale (Bukit Panjang). 5.2. Here is a typical Chestervale unit with the original layout showing the stove and sink facing each other. 5.3. Majority of the first owner units in Whitewater EC also feature the sink and stove positioned opposite each other = X and Y:-. 6. Many of the residents have stayed in these many years. For example Chestervale T.O.P. in 1999. And many units still keep the stock kitchen layout plan with stove and sink facing each other. 6.1. Whitewater EC is slightly newer as the T.O.P. was in 2005. And yet, I visited two units last week and both have the stove and sink facing each other also. 7. In conclusion, the majority of homes can still maintain this layout without any issues. It is not guaranteed that every home with this configuration will encounter significant problems.

HDB Urbanville @ Woodlands BTO launched in November 2020
Cecil Lee replied to Cecil Lee's topic in Singapore Property Review
Case Study 7: Potential sha qi or poison arrow from Drop of Point (DOP) roof-line aimed towards 2nd storey units 1. A sample of one of the DOP at Urbanville shows that it is rather imposing: 1. 2. Most concern usually is the 2nd storey units. As often, the roof-line of such a DOP is able to become a poison arrow and "slice" towards virtually the entire frontage of the 2nd storey unit. 3. For example, most likely it will slice through that of stack 119. As for stacks 139 and 149, most likely such a poison arrow is aimed towards the 2nd storey living room and even maybe bedroom 3 windows. 3.1. It is difficult to cure if this roof-line becomes a poison arrow aimed towards a living room window(s). 4. For example, the following photos are from Fernvale Rivergrove with quite similar type of DOP:- 5. Please also take note that there is a potential sha qi at Block 909A stacks #02-311, #02- 313 and #02-315 from the DOP at Block 909C. -

Case Study 6: Sample illustration of potential inauspicious Fire at Heaven's Gate at NW sector 1. Extract is a sample of the possibility of the kitchen and especially the stove of stack 351 falling at the inauspicious "Fire at Heaven's Gate" at NW. 2. Want to find out more about the significance of Fire at Heaven's Gate? Please check out this link: https://www.geomancy.net/forums/topic/16223-hdb-toa-payoh-kim-keat-beacon-bto-launched-in-may-2018-indepth-understanding-of-kitchen-at-nw-fireheavens-gate-affects-everyone/ 3. Please take note that this is just a quick sampling. There will certainly also be similar cases in this and other newly launched developments. -
HDB Urbanville @ Woodlands BTO launched in November 2020
Cecil Lee replied to Cecil Lee's topic in Singapore Property Review
Case Study 5: Sampling of location of common bins / bin lobby 1. It has always been a common (popular) practise for HDB planners in the past as well as present to try to place the common bins/bin lobby near to the lift lobby area. 2. It is also common sense that generally the most central area of the block and also to faciliate the rubbish bin truck:- 3. Of course, not perfect for stacks that are close-by to it e.g. 103 and 135. Fortunately and hopefully, most of the time, the common bins/lobby entrance is not in full view of the main door.
