Further to what I had mentioned: 1. The country is a Right-Hand Drive or RHD country. 2. Again, just imagine an out of control Toyota Pirus or Lexus SUV.... Source: Four Dead Due to Toyota Stuck Accelerator Pedal - autoevolution or Memo Reveals Tragic Details Of Stuck Pedal Lexus Crash (Pics 3. House No. 1's important structures are away from the direct path of the T-junction. Thus if the car ploughs in a straight line; it does not "affect" any major structure of the home other than maybe the main gate; the drive-way and or garage.

Heard this recent converstation at the Toyota dealership:- Tom (Potential semi-luxury car purchaser) : "I like the drive of this Toyota Camry" Eager salesman: "Yes, this is a semi-luxury car that will fit your bill. Why semi-luxury? This is because; this is one level below our Lexus luxury cars". Tom: "How reliable is it? Will I get the same problem as those American ones where it may bring up the average risks of a car ploughing into my house in a "T-junction" Eager salesman: "This car is so well built that now; even Singapore Comfort Delgro is considering this model as their replacement taxi as they found that the Hundai Sonata's are not that reliable" Tom: "This is bad news! Currently already one taxi company already uses this model! And if Comfort Delgro distributes this to their taxi drivers... I won't want to drive this model" Eager salesman: "Oh! -- tongue tied ... feeling down and out" Tom: " Futhermore, you know, I am a Chinese Hokkien. And I won't want to be caught dead in a CAMRY!" Eager salesman: "Feeling even more depressed...asked: WHY SIR?" Tom: "For us Hokkiens - CAMRY means " Kiam Lui " = OWE MONEY in hokkien". Tom: "Fine for taxi drivers since every day before they start their shift; they already owe money; thus this CAMRY car is a perfect fit" Eager salesman: "OIC! Would you want to consider our SUV instead.." Tom: "I don't want to die young, especially flipped upside down or die like that in your SUV! Go read the newspaper or reviews!" Eager salesman: "Why don't you consider our unique MARK "X" instead?" Tom: "For Camry, at leastit is only "owe money". For mark X; I don't want to be marked for life and further; we Chinese feel that X is inauspicious!" Choy...

1. Suunto only replaces your luck when using their instruments. 2. Feng Shui is about Earth Luck or luck from home or office. 3. What about Geomancy? 3.1 In the past e.g. 1960s to early 1980's; ageomancer cannot survive just by Feng Shui alone. 3.2 Thus in order to survive, a geomancy musthave services that encompass the life cycle of ahuman being:- 3.3When a child is born; parents or grand parents seek the service of a Geomancer to advice on a name fo the new born. 3.4 Chinese astrology services to predict the life of the new born or those who seek such advice 3.5 Feng Shui for those in need of a good home or office. 3.6 Finally, Feng Shui for the dead: a good burial site. 4. Thusmany yearsback most or all Geomancy company has the word "Geomancy" in their name. And not "Feng Shui". 5. You now know why; we choose to use the domainname: Geomancy.net instead of things like Feng Shui.xxx

Suunto (the maker of good quality compass instruments) believe in replacing luck - if one uses their instrument. Feng Shui on the other-hand in some ways is like trying to squeeze out as much luck! We can thus say that the common denominator of both is : luck. Fortrue christians, however; the pastor would often say: "Trust God, not luck!" For most taxi drivers (in Singapore) would often say: "Hope I am lucky today!"

1. Frankly, what you had mentioned; is beyond the scope of this General Advice Forum. 2. Either you have to Do it yourself (DIY) or seek expert help. 3. As for DIY, like everyone else; there are lots of concepts to both digest and make use of. And often, it is an uphill task. 4. Under the Holy Trinity of Luck:- 4.1. Heaven Luck = born with 4.2. Earth Luck = Feng Shui of the home and/or office 4.3. Human or man luck = relationship with family members, family support etc.. 5. Feng Shui is not a cure all. And even within Feng Shui: there are things like Shapes and Forms, Flying Star and even ba zi of bread winners in relation to the home etc...

1. These are some of the resources on the Salt water "cure":- http://forum.geomancy.net/phpforum/article.php?bid=2&fid=7&mid=14743&new= http://forum.geomancy.net/phpforum/article.php?bid=2&fid=1&mid=12257&new= http://forum.geomancy.net/phpforum/article.php?bid=2&fid=3&mid=24740&new= 2. In general, the main purpose of the salt water WITH water WITH coins is to create a chemical reaction much like an ancient way of "producing" negative ions. 3. Usually this cure is meant where there is or are very serious sickness stars or sickness star combinations where #5 are involved (be it for the year or the 20 year flying star) Sometimes if there are any of these three combinations of #5 misfortune or sickness and/or #2 sickness and/or #9 fire to fuel it; this is one of the cure. 4. In modern times, the proven cure is the use of such things as hepa air cleaner with ioniser etc... Ronald R. wrote: i remember last time, my previous FSM asked me to buy his glass and some coins to put inside as well and only need to change the contents after 3mths. placed at south-west. 5. Yes, if the purpose is to create negative ions, then coins must be used. 6. Changing the contents after every 3mths depends on the acidity, how often water is topped up and even the quality of the coins. As most of these coins are "fake coins" and the content of bronze or copper differs greatly. In general, 3 months is a fair time to change - visually, such as the coins are badly corroded...etc.. 7. You should clarify with your new FSM what is his rationale. As I mentioned earlier; logically, if one wants to create "activity" salt (acidity) with copper (and other metals) and water has a chemical reaction. While salt (acidity) with water in a neutral glass jar = ??? question mark. 8. Yes, in-fact, this is the first time I come across what you had mentioned also on this thing of "missing the coins".

1. I belong to the old school where all my cars must be installed with:- 1.1. Mud-guard for both front and rear of the car 1.2. Side mouldings to protect the body of the car 2. My wish? 2.1. How I wish all car parks are installed with friendly "Parking Blocks or Wheel Stops". 2.2. My wish came thru when I went for a Feng Shui audit at the Fontaine Parry condominium at Poh Huat Road. 3. The developer installed a "mud-guard" friendly "parking block or wheel stop". 3.1. Such that even if I were to roll my car wheels touching the parking block, my car's mud-guard does not scrape the "parking block". 4. Any way, this is only a dream as unfortunately, I don't visit this development often as I don't stay there. 5. Frankly, I have no relation to the company advertised on the parking block. But I repeat; I do love this "mud-guard" friendly parking block(s). 6. In fact, more people should install mud guard(s) to their car. As it is both friendly to your own car as mud or debris is kept to the minimium spewing to the car body and the bottom of the car. 7. In fact, the rear mud-guard serves a useful purpose especially on highways as just imagine; as following behind such a car can save you from rocks hitting your car's bonnet or body...

Varsity Park Condominium is a relatively large condominium. There are lots of winding paths... in this condo. Perhaps, the developer has decided to make it difficult for "spirits" to meander in the condo parks. (As the idea is that spirits are suppose to move in a straight line and not follow a winding path!)

The red-line on these photos shows clearly the winding path...

1. This is a "simple" test of whether a home is considered "attacked" at a T-Junction. 2. Please see attachments:- 2.1. Attachment 1: 2.1.1 Attachment 1 shows House 1 and House 2. 2.1.2 In addition, the next question asked is which country are we in? For Commonwealth countries like: Singapore, Malaysia, England, Australia, cars are all RIGHT-HAND DRIVE. 2.1.3 The simple test is just imagine an unfortunate accident occurs where a runaway Toyota car runs amok and ploughs a straight path from marking in RED A to B. If there is an opening such as a main door or windows, then it is considered a threat (T-junction threat) towards the home. 2.1.4 For a Right-handed drive country, HOUSE 1 would be affected by the T-junction. 3. What happens if the runaway Toyota (whatever model) car ploughs a house but ends up into a void; then this is not considered a house "attacked" by a T-junction. 4. Hopefully, I got the illustration correct for Iluustration 2: a country with cars on the left-hand drive. In such a situation; House 2 may or could be the home "attacked" by the T-junction.

These are some considerations: 1.Left-hand or Right-Hand drive (country). If your country is of the Left-hand drive, then definitely it is not considered at a T-Junction. Even if the road is of the Right-hand drive; based on the top-view, hardly if ever any "car" could plough into the home. For a home at a T-junction, the best way to visualise is when weare driving a car and leave the steering in a straight-line; where would the car hit?Ina Left-hand drive, I forsee no issue. 2. Thus, in my opinion, there is no concern, here. 3. In fact, there are worse off situations. For example, take a glimpse at this Malaysian Johor Bahru project. Some units are directlyfacing a T-junction some; where the windows may face it. And as Malaysia is a "Right-handed"(car) country,cars are on the left side and we use this to imagine the routethe car travels (in a straight) line..

These are some interesting links on the reversal of the earth's magnetic field. Although it may not happen sometime in the near future, at least... one day... when it happens; for Feng Shui practitioners (if earth still exists); Will have to first depend on the Shapes and Forms.. while a wide ranging debate much "worse" than the one that had happened in the 1990's where some AustralianGeomancers had the "wrong" idea that Flying star charts should be reversed just becauseof the experiment of "draining" the sink and water vortex is directly opposite that of the northern hemisphere... http://www.geomag.bgs.ac.uk/reversals.html http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Geomagnetic_reversal http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Earth's_magnetic_field

These are additional academic considerations:- 1. In the past, when a site was chosen be it to build a new city or ancestral tomb for the Ming and Ching emperors; and even the use of the pagoda to tame underground water. Shapes and Forms Feng Shui is used. And not Flying Star. 2. Even today, when I work on vast amounts of hectares of new towns for an developingAsean country, Shapes and Forms is the main consideration i.e. the flow of the river(s) and construction of new roads and future subways etc.. 3. The idea is that if the Shapes and Forms is poor; imagine applying Flying Star to say the four walls of a building is just like trying to squeeze as much luck as possible. Worse; even if one pathe the four walls in gold; and outside is crumbling.. what is the chance of a recovery or breakeven senario? 4. Although Flying Star is based on timely stars; how often can we demolish an entire city ... the only time mankind did it was in 2nd world war.. where Germany got flatten... and rebuilt. And as we all know: two atomic bombs flatten the two cities in Japan. Only in such a situation... we can start from scratch. Else many buildings and roads are pretty much the same. 5. Scientist have actually studied the polarity of the earth magnetic field. And from core samples; they had found that the magnetic North-South had flipped many times in the past 4 billion years. 6. The current good news is that within your lifetime and mine, it is not about to change as yet. But if I am not mistaken 10,000 years. would be a possible change. 7. As Flying Star and Eight House is based on one and the same Compass School of Feng Shui... it would mean going back to the drawing board for those who may be practising Feng Shui 10,000 years from now. 8. Or if the human kind is still in existence then. Hopefully, there are less Black Feng Shui being practised. In Singapore, black Feng Shui is often practised by "foreign talent" Geomancers who have nothing to lose but all the more to gain for their "employees" by suggesting buildings that use "black Feng Shui". For example, there are several of such buildings within the Central Business District of Singapore.

These are the considerations for the placement of a cannon:- 1. First ingredient is that if or where ever possible; it should be placed outside of the home and facing away from the home. 2. Usually, it is placed as both a defensive and offensive nature. In a defensive situation; it is placed facing directly towards a sha qi. 3. As a last resort, it could be placed in the home. BUT, usually, if possible placed on a higher ground e.g. on a cabinet + must be facing outwards e.g. of or thru a window. 4. It can be placed facing a T-junction; thick tree trunk, power structures, neighbouring development construction crane, mrt tracks if it slices thru the home. 5. Frankly, do take extra care when placing one too many of such cannons especially if the facing building DOES NOT pose a (physical brick and mortar)threat to your home. 6. Some homes do not have a fence. If so, it can be placed on the ground. But if a fence or if there is some kind of an obstruction; then it is mounted at the highest point: 7. The Hong Kong Shanghai Bank (HSBC) building in Hong Kong 8. In the past, Feng Shui principles was used to determine a good site for the HSBC building. In general, the idea was that the HSBC building must have a direct view of the sea. 8.1. When the Bank of China - Hong Kong building was built; it was felt that this building is symbolic of a sword slicing towards the HSBC building. 8.2. HSBC building decided to place a pair of cannons facing towards Bank of China building. 9. Thus actually, the cannons were used as a defence both to neutralise the Bank of China building and "create" a blocked view of the Victoria harbour.

Yes, correct.

1. Under Chinese culture, it is considered not goodto have a straightwalking-path. As it is believed that spirits go in a straight-line and curved or zig-zag paths are a no no for them. 2. This is why,there is always a zig-zag path leading towards a pavillion. 3. In this picture, we notice a straight public path.However, it was tiled to give an illusion of a wavy path. 4. There is a popular Malay saying "If you can't bring Mohammad to the mountain bring the mountain to Mohammad?" 5. Here, if one cannot curve the path, one curve the tiles....

These are some considerations:- 1. A good water feature should have all five elments in place. Source: http://fountain.geomancy.net Para 2.1. to 2.12 Kevin K. wrote: 4. Do we still place the water fountain? Kevin 2. First time I have heard this statement: "still place the water fountain?". This implies shut-down of a water feature and/or moving it away. Then what, next year check whether to place it back again. 3. So long as this is the "frontage" of a home; this firstly has a higher weightage for "clear space" and "bright hall" effect. And since there is a 20 Year double #8; and considered double auspicious #8's there is not much of a concern. 4. In the first place, have anyone seen a moveable water feature at the frontage of a home... e.g. on wheels or tracks that can move about? Yes or No? 5. With #3 at the frontage; just make sure that you should make an effort to turn on the lights at the water feature. In Singapore; a reasonable time is between 7.30pm to say 10.30pm (or follow roughly what many condo lighting e.g. at pool side does). 6. Alternatively, if there are too many frontage at the home; then depending on the layout plan ... e.g. energy saving led light can be turned on. 7. Here, the most effective is the use of "fire" to burn #3. 8. For the Chinese even better. Some even place a red banner above their main door. This is an option for those non-Christians or more typical buddhist families. I am not asking you to do that. But this is another consideration or alternative. 9. Frankly, a proper water feature with all the five elements in place will do. 10. I had mentioned; in the past; in the 1980's it is a decade of picking up plenty of Feng Shui books that list out dozens of things to enhance the home. 11. Today,concern with thingslike three killings is behind my seat..scare some of us.What to do with Tai Sui as I am facing Tai Sui this year at my work.. what to do? 12 If it was ever meant for a water feature to be on wheels or tracks; it would been documented in ancient times. I wonder, where is the documentation that our forefathers made to move water feature or have the means for an entire say home infrastracture with tracks all around the home.

Further to what I had mentioned: 1. Many donkey years ago as far back as 1997 in this forum; I mentioned the two major Feng Shui schools: 1.1. The Shapes and Forms Feng Shui 1.2. The Flying Star Feng Shui 2. I am a strong believer that between both Schools; the Shapes and Forms Feng Shui has a higher weightage. 3. Why? 3.1 In theory; and in general, we can live "WITHOUT" the Flying star Feng Shui but not the opposite. 3.2 In this case, Shapes and Forms Feng Shui is the oldest form of Feng Shui. 3.3As we all know today, all of uscan be associated byleaning more to either Left or Right brain. I don't need to elaborate on this area. 4. For example; for those fluent with Shapes and Forms, it comes naturally. Andin general we can say that Flying Star helps to compensate those who are not that "Shapes and Forms" type of a guy. 5. Under Shapes and Forms.. if I tell you that there is a "dragon" qi at one place... theFlying Star guy may not understand.. unless he/she plots a mathematical model and "presto" ... he understand numbers. 6. In the past, I mentioned; some of us end up being soexcited by Flying Star that they end up eating and drinking Flying starFeng Shui. This is equivalent to a"myopic' view! 7. For example,withthis question. The main clue from the questionis a water feature at the frontage of the home. 7.1 Automatically, if we open our minds wider and understand this is the frontage; all the Shapes and Forms concepts with regards to this would weigh in ... with our decision. Feng Shui is about qi flow. And an open space usually at the frontage is an added advantage (bright hall). 7.2 Not this idea of the year being #3. If we want to talk about the year being #3. Then why not the month with #3? or Hour with #3. 7.3 The other clue I mentioned is have anyone seen a water feature on rollers or tracks? 8. The morale of the story: "Don't just eat and sleep on Flying Star as if it is the only do or die concept in Feng Shui". 9. In summary; there are many lousy practitioners out there.. as unfortunately, they breathe, eat spat out Flying star only... If I am given a choice of hiring someone.. in the field of Feng Shui.. guess who will get the job and who will be booted out...

More advance points: 1. Shapes and Forms can live in isolation. For example, it can work on it's own with or without Flying Star. 2. But Flying Star Feng Shui has to co-exist with Shapes and Forms Feng Shui. 3. Why? 3.1 Under Shapes and Forms Feng Shui; there is such thing as superior Feng Shui or earth luck. For example; check out "Quantum Leap" in Feng Shui. 3.2 When we look at a Flying star chart; we have to visualise another "layer" .. how does qi move (meander) in an interior. 3.3 For example, under Flying Star, sometimes an actual room can come within two Flying Star Sectors. 3.4. And for practical reasons, sometimes we are not sure which sector stars to use. As in many instances, they are so different. 3.5. Then what? 3.5.1Flip a coin to make a decision? Heads use this sector instead of the other or vice versa? 4.When we look at aFlying Star chart, an experienced Geomancer would visualise where are the windows and other openings in the room and select the best sector stars based on such considerations. 5. And when we visualise qi flow this is abstract and weights heavily on the Shapes and Forms Feng Shui. 6. Thus this is a "working" example ofhow and why:Shapes and Forms can live without Flying Star but not the other way around. 7. Well, I don't meant that Flying Star is lousy or should be replaced totally by Shapes and Forms Feng Shui. It is still an excellent tool if used in-conjunction or correctly. 8. Again, like our no-brainer education system.. it is no point.. memorising and getting a perfect score under Flying Star Feng Shui e.g. perfect honours degree in the Five Elements concept... but when it comes to real life.. cannot even beat a non-graduate the likes of Sim Wong Hoo at the start of his career (not now)... 9. Even under Flying Star; lots of talk on:- 9.1. Best to lock-up the stars... 9.2. Good to open the windows to allow good Flying Star qi to flow into the home 9.3. After a rain fall, good to open all windows of the home... 10. When we talk of such things it is about qi flow (Shapes and Forms) Feng Shui.

Many advertisement flyers are thrown on the floor in this rather "dirty" void deck in a HDB flat in Taman Jurong area

1. Please be careful. There is no known crystal or stones that have such magic powers. 2. Maybe, we should not be reading too many Superman cartoons of kryptonite and it's effect on him. 3. In Singapore, many people were conned into buying a "magic" stone which claims to be able to cure cancer and other ailments. These victims learned the hard way with their hard earned money. 4. Cavet Emptor! Let the buyer, beware! 5. Remember: Charity begins at home. Might as well keep the money for a rainy day or bring family members for a sunday lunch treat! Why should we line the pockets of con-persons with our hard earned money. 6. Shhhhhh! Let you in on a secret... the Mother of all Holy Grail of the most fantastic Feng Shui item: the very special Feng Shui ring can be found under this link:- http://forum.geomancy.net/phpforum/article.php?bid=2&fid=29&mid=27491&new= Remember the powers of the Feng Shui Ring is beyond comprehension! Keep this a secret! You and Me! BTW, it's free, you can print it out and take it with you! 7. The saying goes " a sucker is born every minute - Yes, you! Hahahaha!"

These are some considerations:- 1. Building code Especially for Office (include retail)cum Home Office usually public buildings; majority of the door has to swing outwards. (Some can swing both inwards and outwards). 2. For most homes One should differentiate between grille gate and door. In the west, it is not the "storm door" or the door where some have netting but rather the "inner" door. Alternatively, or logically, the main door is often the door where the house number is - on it. 3. If you are referring to some kind of a gate attached your main door, naturally, this portion has to swing outwards. BUT the door (usually wooden) door should NICE-to have swing inwards. 4. Where possible, at the back of the home; if one has a door, it should again swing inwards. Some homes do not have a back door but grille gate. Then there is no issue with it swinging outwards as this is not a door. 5. In Singapore, it is very easy to understand what is a door. Majority of such doors in Singapore are 1/2 hour fire rated. 6. I am not asking to light up the door and check which burns fast or which does not burn fast. 7. Anyway, as I had mentioned previously, it takes more than one "leak" to cause issues for a home.

These are some of the considerations:- 1. Please see attachment: Markings in RED "A" and "B"of the river. There is a vast difference between the river flow from A to B or B to A majority of the time. 2. The two blocks in the RED shaded areas need to be closely looked at as; in my opinion, usually, wealth in these two blocks can be plotted on a normal "Bell curve": where there will certainly be "excellent (wealth)"units and "poor or vicious cycle of the poor kind" for other units at the other end of the bell curve. While some units will not be affected. 3. The units shaded in GREEN facing the river: It will depend on whether the water flows from RED markings "A" to "B" or vice versa. 4. In my opinion these are the most affected units. 5. Another important variable is the location of the swimming pool or pool of water within the condo can sometimes "make or break" a stack in this development. 6. Those stacks (units)that are not shaded should be the least affected by the RIVER. However, do take note that these non-shaded stacks (units) are subjectedtoFlying Starmapping. 7.Please note that a development next to a river does not always means doom or gloom. As frankly, this is not the only property next to a river. But what makes it of a concern is that part of the unit e.g. in Shaded RED falls within a CURVE of a river (unlike many other developments) where it is parallel to the development and not all of it is neighoured by one side with a river. 8. Frankly, if one intends to such units; it is worth the while considering: those Can or Cannot buy services of a competent geomancer. The saying goes: smart people pre-amp and the common people; buy a home and then look at Feng Shui. In fact, it should be the other way around : for peace of mind when buying a home.

1. Further to what I had mentioned, sometimes we tend to look at a picture.. and only see one image. 2. For example, there are many instances where some consider "it" as a missing corner. But instead, a sector should correctly be seen as a protrusion instead. 3. In this case, there is a potential issue called "Sha Qi = poison arrow". 4. The fortunate thing is that there is a huge distance from marking in Purple: C to D. Thus for condos and even lower ceiling HDB's; the distance from any of such "poison arrows" is negligible as the distance is pretty far... 5. Please see attachment.
