  1. More like a mixed breed or pariah dog. Strangely.. one can tell if it is a mixed breed. As mixed breed's tongue is not pure pink but often have black markings.. I am perplexed by this... I wonder why? Or since Singaporeans love food so much.... better description is ROJAK! I don't care if it is Singapore or Penang or Indian rojak... though.... Was at ITE HQ ... food court : coffee only 50 cents. And this "rojak" Hor fun plate is cheap...
  2. Comments on Sims Oasis block arrangement:- If we look at the combination of TWO condo developments e.g. The Luxurie and La Fiesta, one can also get quite a similar layout plan. Don't get me wrong. The above and what I mentioned below are totally different. Just that I was at Block 50 La Fiesta facing block 21 of The Luxurie. It is like staring at the side of a block. This is actually a sha qi. Block 21 (The Luxurie) is a sha qi towards block 50 (of La Fiesta). Others: Yishun Sapphire vs Yishun Emerald in Yishun/Canberra are also unique combinations. Where if I am in a unit at Yishun Sapphire I could see pool water.. BUT Oops! That pool does not belong to our development! It belongs to Yishun Emerald!
  3. Yes in a way it is like a U shaped. Although this is considered as a variant of a U shape. Where the U is elongated at the middle: thus literally, speaking it can even be considered as a W. For those hopeful: W may symbolise to the W = Win , win ! Ah! Or the Mandarin character of a Mountain There are other developments in the past that are shaped in a 8. And the developers use it as a selling point. If one has the time can go thru this old thread. What is more important is a U = Horse--shoe design... A recommended read:- https://www.geomancy.net/content/feng-shui-resources/site-review/the-tropica-condominium/the-tropica-singapore More resources. What is interesting is that if one looks at a Chinese gravesite or a grave, it literally is also shaped in a symbolic horse-shoe design.
  4. An examination of the myth surrounding the apprehension that bunk beds are undesirable. Source Photo Credit: Picket and rail Please note that the lower bunk bed accommodates a queen-sized mattress, and half of this mattress does not extend beneath the upper section. As previously stated, there is no concern regarding sleeping beneath a bunk bed. However, if the room is sufficiently spacious and there are lingering fears despite my earlier comments, this presents another option. P.S. Photo used for educational purposes only.. Will remove if asked to.. support@geomancy.net
  5. Hope you understand, sorry at this moment, it's blackout.
  6. No mentioning of the development. YELLOW represents solid walls. And red represents dry wall partitions However, in some instances, a few develoopments that I have been to e.g. The Venue.. the structural architect added just a small portion of support beam, see below. (Did one see the added YELLOW partial beam between bedrooms 3 and 4? In such a situation, it is hard to ascertain that the inner walls may be dry wall. As it looks uniform thickness. Legend: Yellow = solid concrete or brick wall or beam RED = dry wall partitions
  7. Please check out this link:- One can observe whether it could be a solid or dry wall by taking an exterior look especially between two bedrooms: How thick is the separation "wall". Extract of the above link to have a better understand of how to know if a wall is solid or dry wall... Alternatively, some sales brochures are upfront and clearly state this. While other sales brochures generaly state that concrete/brick/dry partitions may be used. Here, sometimes dry partitions can be used at the toilet ceilings or kitchen ceilings. Thus none the wiser if the bedroom walls are solid or dry wall partitions. P.S. In my opinion, this may not be totally fool-proof.. as sometimes I encounter what looks like solid walls, but actually, it is just a portion closest to the external. and part of the inner walls (no need load bearing) use dry walls. Best to get the keys and knock knock the walls...
  8. Agree. I am interested to find out whether TRE Residences internal walls are "solid concrete" or dry walls. Thus, not sure if this is correct.. but if TRE uses solid walls.. maybe (just maybe) it could be another reason why it is built slower or if it does not use pre-fab walls... I agree with your logic. As another factor is progress payments. In large projects, each time a certain landmark is reached, buyers must fork out an additional amount of money. Thus this can be a huge sum for a developer especially if they had taken loans. Plus they need the money to pay the main contractors. No pay.. no fast work.. A vicious cycle: Main contractor needs to be paid early.. etc.. etc.. For HDB BTOs, it is based on common sense. HDB Toa Payoh Crest because of it's height.. took close to 5 years to complete. Where usually a "standard" BTO development often T.O.P. between 2 1/2 to 3 1/2 years depending on the size of the project. Majority of HDB BTO's are relatively between 500 units to 1200 max.
  9. Magnolia Coloured (with red base) frangipanni flowers. At Vue 8, Pasir Ris
  10. Vue 8 at Pasir Ris A Dining Pavilion The curved roof of the Dining Pavilion provides a unique shelter, with its support skeletons partially covered in a curved design. This architectural feature offers a calming and inviting appearance.
  11. Sha Qi & Poison Arrows When considering a condo environment, particularly when buying units on lower floors, it is important to be mindful of potential obstructions such as tree trunks, roof-lines of club-house, and roof-lines of gazebos/pavilions/cabins/dining or entertainment pavilions. For instance, the shade in the photo could potentially create a negative energy flow, depending on its size/thickness and whether it is directed towards living room windows, balconies, or bedroom windows of a specific unit.
  12. Agree. The logic that nothing can ever be built above a pool. Save demolishing the entire development. LOL
  13. Some may question: Wait a moment.. if we tie in the mass of Jupiter ... this planet has a large mass always revolving right? But how come you mentioned that it is West-North-West 300 degrees? And not changes? We use this monthly chart to fine-tune case:-In fact, Flying Stars can even be plotted daily, hourly also. But this seems impractical. Or more than some can chew-on.
  14. Thank you very much for taking the time to write such detailed and comprehensive explanation. I understand perfectly and I totally agree. Primary colors (bright red, green, blue and yellow) and pastel colors. If I choose to see bright pink as fire and pale pink as earth, that's my personal decision, but a primary color will always be considered first, acknowledging also BaZi. Yes, many authors and websites make use of people's fears and push "magical" objects to buy from them. "OMG #5 is in this sector this month. Choose to buy from our Feng Shui Supermarket a rotten tomato, an oversized rhynocerous or a frog that talks to exhaust the malicious star and bring you wealth" Never bought and don't plan to do so from these, like you said in another article, Fast Food Feng Shui.
  15. You wrote: Also I wanted to ask about Tai Sui (Grand Duke Jupiter), San Sha (Three Killings) and Sui Po. Reply: 1. The origins of Tai Sui or that you have already given the clue here: Grand Duke of JUPITER). 2. Why called Grand Duke of Jupiter? Not Grand Duke of Mars or Saturn or Moon? 3. This is because in our solar system other than the sun, everyone will agree that Jupiter is our next largest planet. 4. This is because Jupiter has a great mass thus it's gravity can influence earth. 5. This concept has more to do with roughly where Jupiter will (OVERALL) within that specific earth year. 6. The San Sha (Three Killings) and Sui Po and Grand Duke is based on the Flying Stars especially #5 and #3 for that year...etc... 7. Where #5 is associated with Grand Duke. To be exact, every month it can also be found at different locations (But this is only for precision fine tuning). 2018 Annual Flying Stars: Resource extracted from: https://www.geomancy.net/content/feng-shui-resources/yearly-forecast/dog-2018-chinese-horoscope-feng-shui-yearly-forecast 8. The key success factor in understanding metaphyics is always question: HAS IT GOT TO DO WITH COMMON SENSE, FIRST? 9. One will be surprised that if one uses this simple doctrine.. many many things associated with Feng Shui or metaphycis has this common sense origin! 10. Frankly, I was impressed with the former Sony's founder: "Research makes the difference!". 11. "Reseach makes the difference" combined with a determination to try to fine a common sense Rationale behind this:-
  16. When first T.O.P. The views towards the pool-side.. was great! virtually unblocked without the HDB flats. Now some stacks can look at the common bin(s).
  17. Thank you! I visited that location just a few days prior! I am astonished by the rapid advancement, considering that this is a substantial undertaking. I am grateful for your time and effort in sharing this information with all of us!
  18. "To each his own" This is how I would map the relationship between Colours to Feng Shui. In Feng Shui: Location, location, location takes up 70 percent. Others: Compass School Feng Shui etc 30%. Thus based on the above; based on a holistic approach: this is why I consider Colours are secondary. Some Feng Shui schools even consider it a myth of using Colours. But often, there is a hidden agenda. Most often, one may be asked to purchase products. But why? You don't buy paint from a geomancer. Nor does he/she earn from service rendered in painting your home. But there is a world of difference if one is to empty one's pocket to purchase highly marked up products in the name of Feng Shui. Enclosed is a simple model:-
  19. Amenities around 100 Palms Residences Hougang 1 (formerly Hougang Point) besides Hougang Mall prior to the development was the two nearest shopping centres. They together with Seletar market (off Yio Chu Kang Road - currently Greenwich..) served residents of Hougang and the near-by Seletar (and Seletar Hills) estate. When HDB Hougang Crimson T.O.P. two years ago.. I was expecting to go for a quick lunch at Hougang 1. But was surprised to find the entire ground level of Ci Yuan Community Club (CC) converted into a Hawker centre. With the front retaining the Peoples Association office. There is one avenue for those who do not cook to take a leisurely walk towards this hawker centre as an alternative instead of dining at Hougang 1. Below .. with some photos of Ci Yuan Hawker Centre.. and payment via machine system... in the name of productivity...
  20. Q1. Question: Can I place an option to purchase a unit, not just in this development but also in other developments, during the Chinese 7th month? 1.1 The sale, or rather the balloting for this development, starts exactly one month before the Chinese Hungry Ghost Festival, also known as the 7th month. 1.2 Given that no major infrastructure is up yet, those who believe in or are concerned about the Chinese 7th month really have nothing to fear if they want to book a unit in an uncompleted development. 1.3 The reasoning is simple: Since there is no physical space for these hungry ghosts to seek shelter, there is no need to worry about it. Q2. Question: Can I start renovations during the Chinese 7th month for a home that has achieved T.O.P. or has been completed for some time? 2.1 Again, this is based on logical deduction. 2.2 One can start renovations before the 7th month and continue during the Chinese 7th month. The belief is that these hungry ghosts are like us. 2.3 The hungry ghosts have not “taken possession” of any home or apartment yet. 2.4 If a place is messy, dusty, and noisy, and not suitable for human habitation, it is also not suitable for ghostly habitation. 2.5 If the hungry ghosts happen to find a vacant home during the 7th month and renovations begin while they are there, many people prefer not to risk “angering” these ghosts for this reason.
  21. Posted in General Help Hello master, I wanted to thank you for all the support and help you are giving to people through your forum, becuase all the advice found here is a great resource. I have read a lot of articles here and I come to understand a great deal of things and I found answers to the recent questions I asked.
  22. Another consideration I often tell my client is: although I highlighted that a sector should not have BRIGHT YELLOW. But go ahead if there are three primary colours in the bedroom. In real life situations: it is not just black or white or green or yellow etc.. Go buy a colourful cartoon bed-sheet. It may have yellow, green and red or black. If one has all three primary colours.. then no need to avoid say e.g YELLOW at NW sector in my sample illustration. "Yawn"
  23. In my opinion, I look at exceptions. Not purple, pink and pulling out the hair or finding that someone else classifies it under something else.. As mentioned, above, I look at "exceptions" or rather the APEX of colours. Primary colours. And in Feng Shui: I consider it as BRIGHT RED, BRIGHT GREEN, BRIGHT BLUE and BRIGHT YELLOW. Of course one can argue that Yellow can be mixed by using green or blue. But, there are also some who consider it the 4th primary colour. Again, please don't go and ask me why this person consider purple as wood.. he is right. Because.. there are purple tapioca roots which is a plant and tasty.. Maybe that person is infactuated by it.. Can also say.. nowadays ASH wood although grey.. to some is wood. As mentioned, my priority is first and foremost the APEX colors. The rest of the others can be considered as PASTEL colours...
  24. These are some considerations: 1. As you correctly pointed out: there will never be a end as to who is considered right or half-right or wronge. 2. For example grey: 2.1. If it is sprayed e.g. metallic paint on metal e.g. a car or a fridge.. it does really look like metal. Especially if it is shiny. 2.2. But if this same colour matt grey painted onto a wall. It really looks grey. And some may consider as water element. As water can be Blue, black or grey. 3. "The Principle of Exception" 3.1. You wrote : "I found other authors that include pink and purple as fire, some include purple as wood, others pink as earth etc. " 3.2 Yes, it is no point asking for example my opinon as to what I feel these colours or grey colour belongs to. 3.3 These are generally "peanut" colours. 3.4 Instead, one should look at the "Highest Order of colours". 3.5 In many old TV sets of the 1970s e.g. Sony Trinitron.. there is always a three colours : BLUE, GREEN and RED. Nowadays.. many also include YELLOW. Although Green and blue can be mixed to obtain YELLOW. 4. In my opinon, I will zoom into PRIMARY COLOURS. As they are suppose to be most influential. 4.1. Look at the sample illustration. For a sector that has especially #5 or a combination of #5 with #2 or #9 = I would zoom into YELLOW as an example to avoid. 5. For #3. avoid GREEN. While brown is very common natural colour. 6. In fact, I have (for me) I would consider Metal as (White or LIGHT PASTEL colours). And this is found in the illustration. 7. Again above is JUST my opinion. To the best of my knowledge, I am figuring it out based on as much common sense as possible. Nevermind if people don't agree with it. Go eat, sleep, repeat the vicious cycle of classifying until the cows come home or rather.. drop dead.... In addition, both Husband and wife's binding element is wood. Thus, the master bedroom can include wood element.
