One month before a stroke, your body will send you these warning signs. Don’t Ignore Them!

The Essence at Chong Kuo Road, 99 years leasehold. Estimated completion is in Q4 2021. A small development consisting of two blocks of 5 storeys and 84 residential units. Under Shapes and Forms Feng Shui, good that the site is rectangular in shape. The roof-line resembles those of the HDB flats at Potong Pasir and Kembangan area. The blocks are idential twins of each other

The main gate site of the home may look like this But the views from the other side looks like below:- Then in this photo, these landed home’s frontage is shown in this Sentosa Cove poster. More: The Waterfront can be the frontage... not the main gate or main door side. Don’t be surprised! Unfortunately, there are still many Feng Shui Practioners who still live with “The Conservatives” attitude! In the future, if one is considering engaging a Feng Shui practitioner. With the above knowledge, you can now test to see their inclinations. LOL

The key success factor in applying Flying Star Feng Shui is to locate the Frontage. Thus even if it is a landed property, if or imagine that the frontage looks like this: This facing could be considered as the frontage instead of driving into say a landed property through it’s main gate. Here, this like more like a multi-million dollar view of the Pacific Ocean. PS. Location: a recent audit at Sentosa island.

1. In my opinion, this has to do with a group of Feng Shui practitioners known as "The Conservatives". 2. Learn more about: The Conservatives, here:- 3. Please refer to the following sample layout plan. 3.1. In general, The Conservative Feng Shui practitioners always take their compass readings standing say at A looking towards B. 3.2. Imagine that this is not an apartment/flat. But a landed property. Usually for a landed property, the blue area highlighted as "Frontage" is often where there main gate, the compound of the landed home is. 3.3. In Singapore, most landed homes are back to back to each other. Thus the blue zone is always the frontage. 3.4. All Feng Shui practitioners in this situation will take a reading standing at A looking out towards C most of the time. 4. You wrote: "There are this saying that tall building house facing direction is opps of landed house. Example if the landed house is facing North, so the HDB/Condo should be facing South." 4.1 For example in this simple illustration: Standing at A looking out towards B is South. Then, Standing at A looking out towards C is North. 4.2 Based on my experience interpreting your message.. this could most likely explain for your question. 5. Actually there are far more considerations than this superficial over generalised statement. 6. The key success is to locate the frontage of a home. And take a reading standing inside the home looking towards it. 7. As mentioned under Para 3.3. Many Singapore landed properties are back-to-back with another home. Thus it makes it less likely that the frontage is not where one drives into home from the main gate. 8. In many other countries. One can even find a person driving into the main gate. But on the other side of the house is a beautiful view of the ocean. If so, in such a situation, the frontage may even be standing inside the home looking out towards the marvellous view of the beach and ocean.

All developments is governed by the concept of the bell curve. Even if the general site can have overall excellent Feng Shui. Does not mean that every unit within that site has excellent Feng Shui also.

The Lilium at 25 How Sun Road with a total of 80 units (Freehold) A squarish plot of land.

Part 1: Resources - The Gazania, 5 How Sun Drive with aroun 250 units and Freehold. Launching soon... *** Reference Resource Bank - The Gazania ebrochure *** the-gazania-e-brochure-freehold-condo-new-launch-singhaiyi-group-bartley.pdf ================================= More: Link for The Lilium...'the sister development"

On 26 March, a new Cafe and Shop soon... Today, there are primarily supermarkets available, with no Kopitiam present. Most likely for food, one has just to cross over to the nearby Food Centre.

1. In Australia, vehicles are designed for right-hand drive. 2. If that is the case, indeed! It appears that the narrative encounters a T-junction. 3. This is more related to common sense: touch wood in case of a runaway vehicle that cannot halt and crashes into the residence. 4. Therefore, if there exists some form of deterrent... such as a wall or.... it is considered preferable. 5. A Bagua mirror is ineffective for this type of situation. LOL! P.S. Typically, this is merely a service road for your estate. Hence, it is even less concerning.

As mentioned, it is less than ideal. But the earlier article also mentioned a fix.

Sample Option 1: Can or Cannot Buy?

Part 14: Sha Qi of Poison Arrows from sharp corners of neighbouring Blocks/stacks Stand inside the unit's opening such as the balcony or a window and look directly outwards for any threat (if any) 1. (Below) This is just a sample illustrating a possible Sha Qi or poison arrow(s) aimed towards another unit's frontage:- 2. In this sample illustration: Stack #89 has two poison arrows: one aimed at opposite stack #164 and #173. Stack #92 has a poison arrow aimed towards #150. 3. Please note this is just a sampling exercise. And not a complete overview of all poison arrows in this development. 4. At this moment it is hard to say whether the poison arrow is aimed towards any openings or not. 5. If the poison arrow(s) is aimed towards a bedroom window, then often a day curtain can be drawn most of the time. The premise: "If cannot see, no longer a threat, applies". 6. But if the poison arrow is aimed towards a unit's balcony; unless one always and fully draw an external day curtain or zip track blind; otherwise, harder to cure as it is not possible to close the balcony sliding panels everything.

Part 13: Case Study: Shapes and Forms Feng Shui and a sample of a 3 bedroom type 1. It is good that the developer has again separated the washing machine and placed it in the yard: away from the cooking/sink area. 2. Under Shapes and Forms Feng Shui and Symbolism in Feng Shui: Standing at the main door e.g. at marking in blue A not to be able to see into the kitchen area. As most don't always close the kitchen door all the time. 3. Thus it is considered favourable that the kitchen entrance is set-back further by placing the ELCB power switch allowing only to be at position: "B" then can see into the kitchen / sink area. 4. No issue. Just that if one has a maid, avoid her head sharing the same wall as the stove.

Part 12: Flying Star Feng Shui and Treasure at Changi (Oops! = Tampines) 1. Under Flying Star Feng Shui if the expected T.O.P. is 31 December 2023; then this development falls under Period 8:- 2. The only difference is that when 2024 arrives; one should still plot a Period 8 chart. But take into consideration the wealth stars under Period 9. 2.1 In the event that T.O.P. occurs on or after 2024 then in theory Period 9 chart should be considered. Other considerations may include when one moved-in. 3. Car park lots (Note: This is not Feng Shui) 3.1 In the past each unit was entitled to 1 to 1 car park lots. 3.2 However, in the 2012 period, condos like Treasure Trove was allowed to have around 70% car parks to the total number of units, there. As it was believed that this development was close to Punggol MRT / LRT station. Thus there will be those that do not need to own a vehicle. 4. For Treasure at Tampines. This works to be 80% of car park lots for the total units, here. 5. More likely if the car park is full in the future; balloting may occur if all units each have one or more vehicles.

Part 11: In the early 1966's Treasures at Tampines is suppose to be within the Changi estate. From the map one can see that Tampines estate used to be part of Changi Thus if this was 1966: the condo would instead be named Treasures at Changi 1. Good news that in the 1966's Treasure at Tampines sits on an undeveloped part of Changi. 2. Back then, the more pronounced development is to the South of Treasure at Tampines; East Coast of Singapore and later Bedok. 3. Bedok estate took shape. And when it was fully built; the next area developed was Tampines. Zoomed out map:- 4. Then in the early 1980's many at that time consider Tampines less convenient as it is "far". Today, we know or would have laughed at this. Given that there are the Woodlands/ Marsiling estates which are literally the furthest to the Central Business District in the South. If so, Tampines estate does not seem that far off today!

Part 10: Case Study: Shapes and Forms Feng Shui and a sample of a 2 bedroom type 1. Shapes and Forms Feng Shui favours a rectangular home. 1.1. This specific 2 bedroom type layout is a near perfect rectangular shape. [Note: the Balcony is not counted.] 2. Other developments should also try to emulate two toilets in a perfect mirror of each other: for the developer this means less materials costs and for the occupants means less in-flow and out-flow pipes plus less maintenance (in the future). 3. For a 2 bedroom, can understand or cannot be helped that there is space for a service yard to house the washing machine. 4. Before signing on the dotted line, do ask your respective Agent to show you the common corridor layout plan to properly ascertain that the common bin is not beside the unit or directly facing it.

Part 9: Shapes and Forms Feng Shui and a sample of a 5 bedroom type 1. Kudos for the developer in a near perfect "Shapes and Forms Feng Shui" of this sample of one type of 5 bedroom unit: 1.1. If the balcony is not considered while the Yard and utility are actually (in BLUE) protrusions, this layout is close to a perfect rectangular shape. 1.2. I can assure you that many people would instead consider missing corners than protrusions for that area! I don't see it that way. LOL 2. In addition: 2.1. Good that the WC's, sink and plumbing are back to back in Baths 2 and 3. Minimising the drainage pipes for this one unit. 2.2. Bath 1 shares the same wall as the built in wardrope of Bedroom 5. So long as one does not remove this wardrope and sleep on the floor next to the shared wall of the WC is good. 3. Seems like the bigger unit has it's own rubbish chute. Still need to check whether the main entrance of the unit is close-by or facing any common bins (if any) since the smaller units shares a common bin. 4. Another "nice-touch" is to have a separate yard especially for the placement of the washing machine. (And an optional top loading dryer - if any). 4.1. This is because often one needs to fill up the washing machine with washing detergent power. If power is used, be extra careful of wind blowing this substance to nearby cooking tables etc... 4.2. Even if liquid detergent is used, and if one use high heat e.g. 60 degrees or more to wash and/or dry the clothes .. there may be moisture from the washing machine depositing it's power onto areas around the kitchen. 4.2.1. Of course, the food will certainly taste "better". So does - if prolonged may (touch-wood) lead to cancer. As the powdery substance will be all over the open air plates, bowls, utensils etc.. in the kitchen. 5. Another nice-touch is the "partition" made up of the DB box etc.. shielding the main entrance door from the kitchen. 6. Although the stove shares the same wall as Bath 3; fortunately, especially the WC/sink is not on the same wall with it. 7. Overall, this means that this specific layout can be considered as "Feng Shui Friendly". (Other than looking at personalised Feng Shui of the individual occupants. 8. A rectangular shaped unit and not narrow is a good starting point for any premises be it a home or an office:-

===== Interlude ===== Spread the word. Don't let them profiteer and get away with it.

Part 8: Fire @ Heaven's Gate and Treasure at Tampines 1. Do a search in this forum for " Fire at Heaven's Gate ". 2. Generally, a kitchen especially if a stove is directly at the NW cardinal point will be inauspicious for the male-head of the house. Typically this can affect him. 3. This is because NW under the Ba Gua Trigram belongs to the Heaven (sign). And NW also represents the male-head elder of the house. 4. Thus in simple terms: turning on a stove at NW will burn one's Heaven luck = not lucky and also may affect the male-head elder's career. 5. In this example of Block 31 stack 103 partially has the kitchen at NW sector:- 6. It is thus not difficult to visualise South facing stacks and try to locate stacks with kitchen at NW sector. Especially Flying Stars S2 facing ones. 7. Does Fire at Heaven's Gate affects everybody? Check out this link: An extract from the above link:-

Part 7: Total of 29 towers or blocks are safe designs under Shapes and Forms Feng Shui 1. For the developer it is also about packing as many units as possible into the development to speed up the building process and maximise profits + you get your dream home faster! LOL 2. Under Shapes and Forms Feng Shui the plus is that all blocks are orderly aligned in a North-South direction. 3. Minimising as many poison arrows from the sharp corners of neighbouring blocks/stacks. Developer: "Jane, for your information, the Onsen Spa Pool is located between stacks #71 and #72..." Jane: "Sir, Can I get my grand mother from Japan to check it's authenticity? For example, are you using New water or Sembawang spring water?"

Part 6: Reading between the lines of Sales Brochure & Treasure at Tampines 1. Some of the key considerations is the location of the common bins. 2. Where possible, avoid the common bin next to the unit's main door or facing it's main door. 3. Get your respective Agent to help you obtain a copy of the common lobby layout. To find out the exact common bin and to ensure that it is away from the unit. 4. More...
