Sophia Hills is invariably linked to its most renowned landmark, The Cathay cinema, along with the hanging trees... Fortunately, Sophia Hills is situated "up-there," whereas The Cathay cinema is located "down-there." The Cathay was previously a popular destination for ghost sightings. In the past, Sophia Hills was known for its food and dining options "up-there." This 99/109 leasehold land, referred to as Sophia Hills, must be developed around the preserved Child-care/kindergarten building and the conserved structure known as The Sophia Shophouse. Nevertheless, there are drawbacks to this, such as the sharp angles of the rooflines and ledges, as well as the pointed corners of these buildings directed towards any openings in the units within the development. For instance, a seemingly innocuous roofline, as depicted in the attached illustrations... Conserved structure: Childcare/Kindergarten and Conserved Structure: The Sophia Clubhouse. For example, the green arrows indicate a potential hazard from the roofline of the conserved building's roof towards specific levels of stack #37 if there are openings in these areas. Likewise, the cyan arrows suggest a possible threat to stack #43 (if applicable). The purple arrow represents both the potential danger of the rooflines and/or the sharp corner of the building. The yellow arrows indicate potential threats to stack #83 or #91. The blue arrow points to a potential risk to stack #90 (if applicable).

HDB Dawson Site B = HDB Skyoasis @ Dawson
Cecil Lee replied to Cecil Lee's topic in Singapore Property Review
1. Stack 274 is classified under Period 8 Flying Stars N1. The primary advantage of an N1 chart is its favorable double 8s positioned at the front. 1.1 It is beneficial if the frontage includes a water feature. However, stack 274 lacks genuine water unless a water element is incorporated. 1.2. Nonetheless, in its "current state": there exists a clear space of virtual water at the frontage (the living room's facing direction). In this area, there is a patch of grass directly in front of the stack/unit, followed by an internal service road that serves as a buffer to Margaret Drive. 1.3 This stack would undoubtedly gain from having a bedroom or living room situated in an auspicious sector, such as the NE sector, as it possesses favorable star combinations of MS#6 + WS#1. 1.4 Locating a bedroom in the East sector is advantageous for a bedroom cum study. 1.5 Conversely, the remaining sectors of the N1 chart exhibit unfavorable or inauspicious stars, which may require "disarming/neutralizing". 2. Stack 272 is associated with an S1 chart. The distinction between an S1 and an N1 chart lies in the inversion of the mountain and water stars. 2.1 Unlike S2/S3 charts, where the current prosperity stars #8 + #8 are positioned at the front; 2.2. Regrettably, the combined auspicious wealth stars MS#8 + WS#8 are located at the "rear" of the unit. This is quite unfortunate, as this area typically encompasses the kitchen and yard rather than the front, such as the living room or the front side of the home. 2.3 It would be beneficial to have a bedroom situated in the East sector, which is favorable for studies. 2.4 If the main entrance is positioned at NE, it would be excellent due to the favorable combinations of MS#1 with WS#6 in this sector. -

Cecil Lee replied to Cecil Lee's topic in Singapore Property Review
I am pleased to hear that you found my previous posts enjoyable. Thank you! I have revised the original post to enhance its clarity. This adjustment was necessary because I only have the S2 worked-out chart available alongside this rough sketch. Additionally, I neglected to mention that the Flying Star numbers for an S2 chart are the same. For instance: the South sector in both charts, whether S2 or S3, will display two numbers at the top, #8 and #8. The base number remains 3. The sole distinction lies in their respective compass directions: S2 = between 172.5 to 187.4 degrees (180 degrees chart) S3 = between 187.5 to 202.4 degrees (195 degrees chart) Attached is an S2 chart, with highlights in the South sector showing 8 + 8 over 3. S3 = between 187.5 to 202.4 degrees (195 degrees chart) Attached is an S2 chart. Highlights at South sector which has 8 + 8 upon 3 -
Sophia Hills Condominium (a re-launch) It is essential to verify the accuracy of the Sales Brochure's site-map against the local street directory to ascertain whether the North marking on the Sales Brochure's site-map is correct. This verification is necessary because, in previous instances, a few Sales Brochures contained not only inaccurate but significantly erroneous North markings on their site plans. Consequently, if one were to follow or rely on this North marking without question, it could lead to an unpleasant surprise later on... Is the sales brochure reliable? The positive aspect is that the margin of error is not merely a 5-degree discrepancy: for instance, the Sales Brochure indicates a 45-degree frontage, whereas the street directory shows 40 degrees. Fortunately, this discrepancy falls safely within the parameters of Period 8, NE2 facing direction, where the acceptable range is between 37.5 degrees and 52.4 degrees. This provides a considerable buffer or safety margin. Attached are the two documents: the street directory and the sales brochures.

Feng shui gone wrong in my factory according
Cecil Lee replied to Kunal's topic in Feng Shui for Business
1. To begin with, it is not considered professional for competitors in the same industry to make comments about each other's work. 2. Moreover, I am uncertain about the accuracy of the attached charts. For instance, the chart indicates that it is a Period 5 chart, while today we are in a Period 8 chart: 2004 to 2023. A Period 7 chart covers 1984 to 2003, and a Period 6 chart spans 1964 to 1983. The implications of using a Period 5 chart to plot your factory are unclear. 2.1. In addition to the Flying Star chart, other factors such as the surrounding drainage flow around the factory should be considered. 2.2. Shapes and Forms Feng Shui, such as the location of the building and the external environment, are also important considerations. For example, a neighboring property with a "fire" element could pose a threat to the business. 3. Furthermore, I have provided interpretations of the significance of certain numbers, such as #5 in business representing misfortune or "sickness." 3.1. In addition to the above, I am having difficulty interpreting the blurred images, especially the second attachment. -
The above is just the beginning of this review. This is an example of a Can or Cannot buy for specific stacks. Frankly, it is very time consuming. For this analysis alone: it took me from start to finish close to 6 solid hours of work: gather each layout; make sure that they are not mirrored; match the compass directions ... etc... And usually after finishing this analysis.. will leave me with a head-ache.. but this aside..

Riverbank @ Fernvale by UOL 1. There are two schools of Feng Shui: Compass School and Shapes and Forms. 2. Here, if you are a person who is considered as more logical, analytical and objective, then you most likely lean towards the Compass School where it uses numbers. 2.1. If you are more intuitive and subjective is considered better at Shapes and Forms. As can even picture it. 2.2. For example, "if I were to tell you that there is a dragon embracing a tiger, here. And if one were to ask where? But instead, I express it by number. For example this sector has the #1 water star with #8 a mountain; then a left-brain person would understand better. 3. Two worlds coincide.. here.. 3.1. For Block 17 stack #33 this is where even if one is a left or right brain dominance; majority may figure out that #33 is "The One!" 3.2. Here, whether if you are a left or right brain dominance person may come to the same conclusion that Block 17 #33 could be the best stack/unit. (Fortunately for some who have the purchasing power may go for it. If one has a tight budget... hmmm)... 3.3. What is so tempting about Block 17 stack #33? a. Suppose to have one of the best Shapes and Forms in Riverbank @ Fernvale: - within the development there are "veins" of water flow/course right at the front of the stack. - forever and ever (until en-bloc if any) it will enjoy unobstructed view of the water bank. - a stack located at the "land of the rising sun" easterly ... side instead of the sunset side... b. Under Flying Star Feng Shui; often when I buy a home for myself either for stay or renting out.. I would go for one with the auspicious double's of that period. Thus from now to 2023... the facing of this stack has the auspicious #8's at it's frontage. Frankly, even for this stack #33; it is still not perfect! But because of so many good things going for it... even if the kitchen is at the dreaded "NW" or fire-at-heaven's gate location.. no big deal... since even such "flaws" are no match for what I mentioned above.... However, under Flying Star Feng Shui.. under Period 9 which will slowly be influenced by that period chi two years before 2024 ... the wealth stars by say... 2022.. 2023.. will unfortunately "fly" to the rear side of this stack... Thus unfortunately.. even with so many things going for it... for the male breadwinner.. be cautious of career issues... around 2022.. 2023... Fortunately... if one can tide through this two years from 2024 onwards... the saving grace of especially good Shapes and Forms etc.. will help tremendously to help reduce it..

Semi-detached homes with unique curved balconies
Cecil Lee replied to Cecil Lee's topic in Around Singapore
This bungalow is located at Mountbatten Road. In the past around the 1950's bungalows in this area is around 9,500 sq feet. This design can also be found at Greenleaf area Rd / Dr / View. But usually split into half I.e. Semi-detached homes. For the Mountbatten Road example; the balcony's arch curves outwards. But for the sample layout plan of Greenleaf as shown in the earlier thread; the arc curves inwards; not outwards. More of the same theme. -

Poor Shapes & Forms but no obvious "threat" from movement of or flow of vehicles passing past the front gate of this home. Good news is that the home is set-back quite a distance from the road. A pretty sizeable home by Singapore standards, today. Arrows show the direction of vehicle flow.

I have compared the North marking of the streetdirectory-map with that of the Sales brochure. The deviation is only a mere 1 degrees. And I found this margin to be on the very safe-side. Thus since both match near-precise; this implies that the sales brochure's North marking can be "trusted" in accessing the compass directions. The streetdirectory's show a sample reading of 118 degrees. And the sales brochure of the same direction shows 119 degrees. Either maps can be relied upon at the moment to get the compass degrees for Flying Star Feng Shui analysis.

The Pavilion Gazebo-roof-lines are okay. But ouch! do watch those vertical poles supporting the pavilion / gazebo's. When standing inside any unit; avoid facing such vertical poles as shown in the illustration. The hardest is if one were to stand at that lovely balcony and be "confronted" with such a vertical pole or even a lone tree trunk. These are considered poison arrow or sha qi. Harder to cure. As normally we often leave the balcony sliding door open or do not draw the curtains fully to block or screen it (if any). If these vertical poles face a window opening.. much easier to cure as one can often draw the day curtain fully all day round. And this is suppose to be acceptable / practical "cure".

The Santorini Condominium @ Tampines is said to got it's inspiration from the Mediterranean. A medium sized condo with a total of 597 units. From a Top-view perspective the 7 blocks are roughly U shaped layout. Where block 35 is arranged a little off from it's two sister blocks 21 and 31-33. This site is on a pure rectangular plot. And under conservative Shapes and Forms Feng Shui is truly playing safe-macro Feng Shui. Stacks like Block 29 stack #26 and also Block 23 stack #14 will invariably create poison arrows from the sharp-corner of the block aimed towards stack #32. While stack #14 has it's corner aimed towards stack #08. See attached illustration. The Flying Stars of Blocks 21 31 33 35 stacks that either face Period 8: NW1 or SE1 directions.

Commonwealth Towers by City Developments Limited (CDL)
Cecil Lee replied to Cecil Lee's topic in Singapore Property Review
Commonwealth Towers and Stacks #09, #10, #20 & #21 These stacks face an auspicious Flying star direction of SE3. SE 3 facing has the water wealth star at it's frontage. Thus stacks #09 and #21 definitely meets the criteria. But with a caution: "white pollution" or especially for #09 even if it is inner stack (stack #10 being the closest to the MRT tracks) there will still be noise coming from the tracks during MRT operational hours. But I suppose, many would want to get the highest possible units. If so, then the above may not be of an issue. #10 also faces the pool as it is quite a distance away. But still meets the above SE3 facing criteria of water at it's frontage. Stack #20 especially higher storeys like 4th storey and above faces "virtual water" or yin water. Not real but better than nothing... "type of water" aka skyjuice. For a SE3 facing, however, the rest of the stars in other sectors are inauspicious. And may need to be disarmed especially in locations such as living / dining / bedrooms. These four stacks #09, #10, #20 & #21 does meet another criteria for SE3 facing a really good mountain support. In the form of the huge central core housing the lifts / staircase etc... If one is a non-lover of afternoon sun.. then stack #10 may have partial afternoon sun.. but the trade-off is that if one hangs clothes.. these dry pretty fast .. on sunny days! -
Gramercy Park by CDL formerly Lucky Towers 1. My first impressions of this condo's name Gra - mercy? I simply don't like this unusual non-English name. Especially when I "break-it up" as above. 1.1. No offence, initially I also thought that Gramercy is a new horror movie like gremlins or something of that nature. 2. In fact, I suspect in the near future tell this name to a taxi driver and they or even the person wanting to go there may have a hard timing pronouncing the name. 3. Any way Gramercy Park is suppose to be not only luxury but said to be ULTRA luxury condo: privacy and exclusivity with the world's finest facilities. 4. When one first looks at the site map: one would assume that for eg. stack #09 would have the entire living room cum dining room facing towards "X" as shown in the attachment. 4.1. But this was not to be. In fact, if one were to purchase a unit at stack #09; standing anywhere in the living room / balcony... to the right will be the huge rubbish bin centre and the drive up for the rubbish truck. 4.2. Thus, I was scratching my head.. hmmmm P.S. The frontage of stack #09 should be standing at marking in purple A looking out towards B. The consolation is that the master bedroom has a commanding view of the pool. But somehow; it's huge toilet occupies part of the area facing the pool. And only the master bedroom, a bedroom + a small portion of the living room balcony has direct the pool view.

Flying Star Feng Shui actually has its roots in this festival… believe it or not. It’s also linked to traditional Chinese sword-fighting formations, which are based on these 9 stars, often referred to as “The Big Dipper formation” and more. Taoist Nine Emperor Gods Festival (Kee Ong Yah festival), also known as the Nine Deities Star Gods Festival This Taoist festival always begins on the eve of the 9th month in the Chinese lunar calendar. These celebrations are generally found in Southeast Asian countries with significant ethnic Chinese communities. In essence, the Nine Emperors (deities) are associated with 9 stars: The Big Dipper consists of seven stars, and each of these stars is regarded as an emperor. 2. In addition, there is one more emperor linked to the North Star in Ursa Major, which you can actually see with the naked eye on a clear night. Finally, there are two assistant or associate stars. And unless you have “bionic” eyes, these two are very hard to spot with normal eyesight—eyes like yours and mine. So, when you add them up 7 + 1 + 2 = a total of 9 stars, which in the context of this festival are honoured as the Nine Emperor (Nine Stars) Gods. On the eve of the ninth lunar month, a special ceremony is held to welcome and invite the Nine Emperors (9 stars). Elaborate bridges and structures are set up to symbolise and acknowledge the arrival of these gods from waterways or rivers. This has nothing to do with the American Ku Klux Klan (KKK) or any white supremacy group. By coincidence, though, devotees also dress in traditional white robes to represent purity. They carry incense and candles as they wait to greet the Nine Gods. During the festival, the atmosphere is joyful and lively, almost like a carnival. Celebrations may be held in temples, but in Singapore many temples are quite small and cannot accommodate large crowds. That’s why, for example, land next to the Eunos MRT station is leased for the event. That’s where I took photos from a distance. This location is also suitable because throughout the festival, priests perform chanting and ring prayer bells. If the celebrations were held right next to housing estates, residents might not appreciate the noise, especially after 10 p.m. At the Eunos site, FREE vegetarian meals are offered throughout the nine days of the festival, along with continuous daily chanting of prayers. On the final day of the festival, devotees send the Nine Emperors back to Heaven. By the way, this is one way to relate the concept of the 9 Star Ki or the 9 Palaces in Flying Star Feng Shui to this festival.
