  1. 1. The link for the FREE auspicious DATES report can be found here: Http://dates.geomancy.net 2. Please note, the date report is as-it-is.
  2. Assuming that your "house" youare referrring to a landed property: if you have garden, the best solution(s) are: 1. Landscaping: 1.1. If it is soil and grass patch area, then you can outline a profile such that from a helicopter view; you can seen a distinct outline of the missing corner. 1.2 In addition, a lamp-post at the corner of this profile would be good. For example, nowadays, there are solar panel lightinings - canuse it instead of the troublesome laying ofpower cables to the lightning point. 2.Concrete or tiled area: 2.1. Make use of flower pots to go along the profile of the outline of the missing corner.
  3. Don't become a slave TO the Feng Shui Ruler...
  4. These are some of the considerations:- 1. Feng Shui is both a "art and science". 2. Unfortunately, if you do hire a geomancer and they only thing of pushing products; then such geomancers are a "suspect". 3. Holistic Feng Shui involves: on-site viewing and understanding of the home and site. And a professional Geomancer uses many of the "tools" to check for "leaks" and also look into ways to enhance a home. 4. Feng Shui is not a cure all. In the past, I have highlighted several circumstances where Feng Shui cannot work. For example, many years back, several "Bubble Tea" sellers with just a capital of US$10,000 could open a "tea drink shop". When asked to Feng Shui their business, I told them, don't waste my time! 5. Thus, if yourlegal woes were due to or accumulated via failure in business, then truly Feng Shui is not a cure-all. 6. Based on Professor Michael Porter or his "Five Forces". Anyone with a capital of US$10,000 can set up shop next to yours and sell this "Bubble Tea". 7. In fact, this bubble tea drink is more of a Taiwan thing than a Singapore thing. Thus this drink is only a fad. For example, majority find that the drink is not healthy as it is too sweet and cold. Many prefer to have their daily cup of coffee or tea vs such a "new" import. And there are few Taiwanese in Singapore to sustain the shop and many other similar shops. 8. Thus if again your woes were due to failed business or a poor business model then; even God, cannot help under such circumstances.
  5. These are some of the considerations:- 1. Even under the Indian art of Vastu; their main concern is thatespecially the interior space of a home should have good measurements. 2. Feng Shui does not even go into Para 1. 3. Furthermore, what you have mentioned is at the external of your actual home i.e. the site: garden and entrance area. 4. Just look at it, your main gate area will have "holes" or openings - unlikethe building of the home itself. 5. A rule of thumb in Feng Shui is that onecan or could or may use a simple standard of 17 inches (or roughly 43cm). 6. Thusif you want to consider auspicious width, then any multiples of 17 inches is considered very auspicious. Note: every 17 inches is = equal to a Feng Shui "foot". And 17 inches by 17 inches square and if one divides it into two equal triangles; each of the triangle is considered as a magic square. http://www.geomancy.net/resources/theories/fs-ruler.htm 7. Frankly, if you do use the Feng Shui ruler for your main gate.. erh.. don't quote this site.. as some people may think that I have dementia or too crazy and only eat, sleep and think only about the Feng Shui ruler. 8. In my opinion; what you are trying to do, is peanuts. To think big; or go for the bigger picture, I feel there are more productive things to do than this .... "obsession" with the Feng Shui ruler...
  6. This was once a dying art in Singapore. But today, the belief of burning offerings of bamboo/paper: homes, cars, boats, handphones is striving! This is the belief that when one dies, such offerings would ensure that the dead lives a comfortable life with a home, car and many other material things that the person was used to prior to their death. Location: Joo Chiat Road.... Below: This most likely is exoskeleton for a paper mansion made by binding lots of bamboo strips:- Apologies for the blurred photo:
  7. Belief that the after-life needs these items. Still common also in Taiwan...
  8. More photos From the photos one can see that the size of the boat is pretty big... Sorry, I took the photo of the Mansion hidden behind a Power Box.... The roof of the mansion has a typical Two dragons chasing after a pearl at the centre.. however.. the centre looks more like a flaming .... Below..can you imagine the skeleton frame of an uncompleted mansion hung up at the ceiling? Apologies for the poor photo.... in the year 2010 phone cameras are not that advanced, yet....
  9. In my opinion, these two lions are the most beautiful. Each also has a pearl in their smiling mouth...
  10. There are several past resources on this subject. Here is one:- http://forum.geomancy.net/phpforum/article.php?bid=2&fid=1&mid=15247&new= Some persons can sleep soundly even with mirrors and reflective glass on wardrobe cabinets. Sometimes it takes just one or two persons such as relatives and friends to comment that it is no good and we may feel uneasy after that. If one is such a person, then, simply avoid having the mirror.
  11. The Waterview condo (under construction - ready around 3 years time) is next to The Tropica condo:- http://forum.geomancy.net/review/tropica/morepics.php
  12. The Waterview condo has to be one of the hotest properties despite that is a leashold 99 years plot. And the hotest stacks are Block 79 : stacks 13 and 14. As well as Block 77: stacks 09 and 12. Those stacks facing Tampines Avenue 10 - sucks! Very noisy.
  13. Frankly, there is not much information to go on. Thus, best of luck!
  14. 1. Frankly, you have already said it. 2. Some things are out of one's control. 3. Given also that this is not your own home, as I have always mentioned:- http://wiki.geomancy.net/wiki/The_Concept_of_Maximizing_Marks 4. You may have to look elsewhere to maximize other forms of luck. Given the limited information, if you are considering D.I.Y. then, you need to do as much research as possible.
  15. These are murals related to filial piety and the various stories about filial pieties...
  16. 1. At position E, no the shoe cabinet is not an issue. Neither is the maid's toilet. 2. This is also commonsense. The location at E is already a better one. It is not like your home is large or what. 3. With a small apartment, frankly, what more do you want? A shoe cabinet that is miles away and the maid's toilet that is also miles away? 4. Have to be realistic. You are staying in a small apartment. For example, walk a few steps and it is your dining. Walk a few more steps is your living room. 5. Thus you have live within your expectations. On the side, just imagine, if there is or for the gods or Guan Yin, they will sure to understand.
  17. These are some of the considerations:- 1. A partition need not necessarily be "air-tight". Many acceptable partitions have see through design. 2. Often it is considered not to use reflective glass facing the main door for two reasons:- 2.1. Symbolically, if the glass is highly reflective and facing the main door; one may inadvertently "reflect one's weath" out of the main door. 2.2. For some, when opening the door, one can see one's reflection (shadow) on the partition and some may think that there is "someone" in the apartment. 2.3. Often, some may use sand-blasted or opaque film at the main door side. While the inner side can still be a reflective surface. 3. For asthetic reasons, usually the partition should roughly be at least as high as the door frame. Often, it need not be full height as some want some light to flow from the ceiling area towards main door area. 4. Usually the partition should cover all the width of the door. For example if the door has only one leaf, then it is best to have the door cover the entire door. If the door has two leafs: 1 big door and a smaller side panel, then covering the 1 big (main) door is good enough. 5. Based on Feng Shui ruler dimensions, usually most partitions should be approximately 42 inches. While some others can be 49 3/4 inches. 6. Although from the floor to the height of the partition frame can be made Feng Shui ruler friendly, but often this is less of an importance.
  18. These are some of the murals etched into the marble slabs on the wall of the temple....
  19. 1. Hey!, this is not exactly the auspicious "Dragon-gate" Feng Shui! 2. Literally, this home places a dragon-holding a pearl; placed on one of the pillars of the gate. 3. At least, even if it is highly uncommon for a home to have a dragon figurine "guarding" the gate; at least it is only a single piece. As a dragon represents the male. While the phoenix represents the female form. 4. As mentioned, it is very rare for people to place such a figurine on their main gate pillar facing outwards. This is the very first time I came across such any activity. 5. Usually, instead, such a figurine is common only in a temple where a pair of dragons is often found on the main roof of a temple. And both the dragons will be looking at a single pearl....
  20. 1. Please see illustration. 2. There are lots of concerns or pratical issues when placing an altar in this apartment. 3. For example, usually for marking in RED "A" shoes are often stored, here. If so, it is not desirable for an altar to be placed next to it. For example, it is not auspicious to have the altar placed at marking "B" because of this. 4. Specially tailor a niche at "A" (store) for the altar may be a consideration. So long as any figurine does not face the green marking "X". 5. If there is no shoe cabinet at "A", an altar (MAY) be at marking "B". BUT, it is too close to the kitchen. A better alternative is to place the altar at marking "E". Here, the entire store cum area has to be "modified" and the altar placed at "E". 6. Usually the 2nd choice after this is marking C or D. But, because of the layout of the apartment, this is usually where your TV set is; then it is not auspicious to have the altar beside a TV set. 7. Thus if forced to choose a location such as "C" or "D"; the no choice is to have it at "D". Again, not the best. 8. the consideration is either "G" or F". Here, there are still landed homes (no choice) where the altar face the dining table - especially for "G". So long as the alter is of auspicious height such as around 49 3/4 inches, this is perfectly fine or common. 9. The majordisadvantage of altar sitting facing the bedrooms is that often the "GOD's should- guard the home" and not peer into our lives.For example if the altar is placed at "F" or "G", it is not nice to have them looking at couples having intimate relationship and changing clothersetc... 10. Furthermore, "G" would most likely be directly facing theTV set. So does "F","G" and "H". 11.The last resort was "F". Butagain, the drawback is that it would facein green "Y". 12. Avoid placing thealtar at "H" looking into themaster bedroom! 13. In conclusion, the better position is of course between marking A and B = E.And make sure the altar is at an auspicious height of 49 3/4 inches high. So that it will also "over-look" the dining table. P.S. Alternatively, if there is a permanent unused bedroom, an altar can be placed next to the window... In Singapore, this is highly unlikely... given that bedrooms are premium spaces for a family member to dwell or as a study room. Note: The suggestion(s) are meant only for a regular Chinese altar: If it is the ancestor altar, other location such as the kitchen may have to be re-looked at. This suggestion does not apply to the Thai 4 face god....
  21. The saying goes: a picture tells a thousand words. In this picture alone; it shows how the different class of Singaporean's abode: The Upper, Middle and Lower class. This picture shows the picture that I had taken fromThe Makena condo, at Meyer Road.
  22. Sorry the photo is blur. But can you see the outline of the "moon" gate at the entrance of the home? This "moon" gate arch is supported by the two gate pillars of the home.
