1. [Above] this is a plain “Jane “ mirror. But PLEASE NOTE: the mirror must be conVEX and not this example of a concave one! 2. [Below] other more elaborate ba Gua mirror, has instead the eight trigrams. More of a Dua role of frightening Chinese ghosts also:- 3. Often, such a mirror is placed above the front door.

These are some considerations: 1. Yes, indeed. It is a valid Sha Qi or poison arrow. 2. Please note that I extracted from the web some photo illustrations. And because the photos may be subjected to copyright, I did not remove the respective owners information. 2.1. Please also note that I do not know these websites or their owners. 2.2. Thus it is meant to illustrate my comments only. 3. A passive way to deal with such a poison arrow is to use "mirror" like reflective surfaces. Of course more the better. 3.1 But often a gate with some reflective materials be it polished stainless steel (not brushed or matt) may be considered. 3.2 Shiny acrylic sheets can also be used. But often, due to UV and wear and tear - not so hardy. 3.3 And or add more of these panels especially waist down as shown in the blue zone. 4. Traditional Feng Shui of course, could be the use of a simple conVEX mirror with or without the ba gua trigrams.

A. Singapore has only 13 DBSS developments in its history. These are still considered HDB flats, but they were developed by private developers. Some people view them with caution since some units are priced similarly to ECs or condominiums. One unique feature is that the keys are collected directly from the private developers, not from HDB. I was fortunate to visit each of the 13 DBSS developments, thanks to clients who invited me for Feng Shui consultations during their respective T.O.P. B. Together, these developments offer a total of 8,649 housing units. L = Launch Date T = T.O.P. (HDB calls this Lease Commencement Date or Lease Start Date) 1. L2006 The Premiere @ Tampines T2009 – Condo-style balcony. 2. L2008 Park Central @ AMK T2011 – I like this site. 3. L2008 City View @ Boon Keng T2011 – Features one of the biggest balconies. Today, unit prices reach a million dollars. 4. L2008 Natura Loft @ Bishan T2012 – I like this site. 5. L2009 Parc Lumiere @ Simei T2011 – “Straight line / Pencil Thin” layout. 6. L2009 The Peak @ Toa Payoh T2012 – Activities often surround Blocks 126, 127, and 128. Front doors open directly to the kitchen and yard. 7. L2011 Adora Green @ Yishun T2013 – During launch, the block facing Khoo Teck Puat Hospital was the most expensive. 8. L2011 Belvia @ Bedok T2014 – Fair overall. 9. L2011 Centrale 8 @ Tampines T2015 – Dense development. 10. L2011 Trivelis @ Clementi T2015 – “Hilly.” I remember the dark-colored exterior facade. 11. L2011 Lake Vista @ Yuan Ching @ Jurong West T2015 – Some units had a few “spiritual encounters.” 12. L2012 Parkland Residences @ Hougang T2014 – Nice views, but expect to face the afternoon sun. 13. L2012 Pasir Ris One @ Pasir Ris T2015 – Narrow corridors; do be considerate when leaving the grille gate open.

Frankly, even in Feng Shui, one must conduct a triage, first. Under Habit One:

This stall took over recently. Automatically give black KL sauce type.. Noodles fairly well balanced. Fair.

Case Study 2: Is the location of the Water Tank position found on the Sales Brochure useful? 1. Recently a few Sales Brochures started to include the location of the Water Tank on the roof-top. 2. What's the concern? 2.1. Under the I-Ching water represents difficulty, thus it is recommended not to have a home with the water tank directly above it. 2.2. Even if the water tank is partially above a unit, this is consider less than ideal. 3. A few years ago, a client was house hunting around Hillview. 3.1. We went into a top floor unit of such a development. And could see traces of leak from the above. 3.2. Since what stands between this highest unit is the roof-top. 3.3. We went out to the emergency staircase well and saw a glimpse of the water tank directly above the unit. 3.4. What I suspected was that the water tank has to be bolted onto the roof-top. 3.4.1. I believe that due to the daily expansion and contraction, the bolt could have moved. 3.4.2. Thus perhaps, if the water-proofing is dry or not flexible, this frequent expansion and contraction may result in perhaps hairline cracks. Thus as a result, rainwater easily finds it's way into the unit. 3.4.3. Okay, you can say that such defects is the onus or responsibility of the condo management or MSCT. 3.4.4. Sometimes due to costs and time need to locate and fix the leaks, damage would already have been done. Especially if the leak falls into the parquet teak flooring. 3.4.5. Teak flooring often as a result of this turns black. And in some cases shrink.

Case Study 1: I was curious to know what was the initial VS on the site plan! 1. Recently, I was preparing a House Hunting (Can or Cannot Buy Review) for a client. 2. I realise that the unique initial VS. Which I understand is the Ventilation Shaft for the basement carpark. 2.1. For ventilation of basement carpark to avoid the danger of too much deadly carbon dioxide. 3. From observations of the Fourth Avenue Residences site plan, seems like these VS are around the perimeter of the development. 3.1. And not directly below a PES unit. 3.2. This was because in the past, had a client who previously collected their new home key. 3.3. To be disappointed whenever the windows of a bedroom was opened. This development had a basement carpark ventilation fan turned on at specific timing. The fan was making quite a din.

Case Study 4: Should I be concerned with the near-by Electrical Sub-Station (ESS)? 1. This is related to a Stigma. Given that so far there are no known issues with living close to an ESS. 2. Thus even if science shows that there are no adverse issues with such an ESS. 2.1. There are always some who have heard that it is inauspicious and thus already closed their minds to it. 2.2. More so, if in the future, a potential buyer has this "fears". Thus may or may not affect future re-sale value.

Case Study 3: Location of Common Bins and Common Bin Lobby 1. It is still preferred to consider a stack like #107 and various others in this development - IF POSSIBLE. 2. While stacks like #105 is not perfect, but at least further away from it.

Case Study 7: Sample of a possible Sha Qi or Poison arrow from a neighbouring rental Block 590A 1. A possible Poison arrow from the sharp corner of Block 590A around Stack "#A". Either from the staircase landing or the corner of Stack #A. 2. Please note that this is only a sampling. There may or may not be more poison arrow(s) around this development.

Case Study 6: Front Door facing a long corridor? 1. Candidate 1: Stacks #607 & #615 = Yes 2. Candidate 2: Stack #629. Yes, it is facing a corridor. Fortunately, it is not a long corridor.

Case Study 5: Sample of Fire at Heaven's Gate Stack/Unit #619 1. Eye-balled a stack/unit that most likely have the "Fire at Heaven's Gate. 2. Please note that this is just a sample and may not be conclusive for HDB Costa Grove. 3. To find out more, please check out this link:- 4. Looks like stacks #585 and #539 equally may be affected by this.

Case Study 4: Kudos for great placement of the two Precinct Pavilions 1. Out of sight, out of mind-:) 2. Equally out of sight. Although still close-by (expect some noise level) but fortunately, there is a buffer = stairwell between the PP and stack #685:- 3. Really cannot ask for more. Close to Perfect, here!

Case Study 14: Any issue living close to an Electrical Sub-Station ESS? 1. Scientifically, there is no known issue living above an ESS or close-by to it. 2. It al boils down to a stigma. Unfortunately, stigmas sometimes are diffcult to be shrugged off! Therefore, safest try to avoid lower floors or if such specific stacks/units: stacks #158, #160 and #107.
