Usually, just prior to the 7th month, many Chinese clients want to confirm their layout(s) and try to symbolically start the renovation of their new home. (Before the 7th month which begins on 9 August 2002 and ends on 6 September 2002). 3. During this period, many new home owners would as mentioned earlier, start renovations to coincide with the end of the 7th month. 4. Here are some interesting information for those who are not too sure of what to do during the 7th month:- 4.1 Can I still visit the show rooms to view perspective homes? Why not. You are not intending to move in on the 7th month. And if there are soft launches during the 7th month; the show rooms may not be as crowded. And you can even view or place a deposit. 4.2 I am waiting to collect my keys. Can I do so during the 7th month? If you are in no hurry to start renovations or move-in, then, if you want to, you can defer collecting the keys e.g. to your condo. Usually, the developer will oblige with your request. However for (Singapore) property tax purposes, Property Tax starts the moment, Temporary Occupational Permit (T.O.P.) has been given. And the period between you the TOP and you getting the key; usually, the developer would have to bear the costs of the Property Tax (based not on owner occupied rate - but a higher rental rate). When you get your keys to your condo, soon after, remember to submit the Property Tax form for your new property. So that, when your property tax is due, you will be billed accordingly. Else, you have to pay up front the entire tax. And subsequently, try to get a refund from your developer. 4.3 Can I still contact a Geomancer for an audit during the 7th month? Usually, there is no issue. This also depends on individual's preception or degree of what they consider good or bad during the 7th month. During the 7th month, Feng Shui audits can still be conducted. But, it is best confined between e.g. 8.30am to 3.00pm. After 3.00pm, it is a yin period and not as advisable. It is best not to conduct an audit on the 7th day of the 7th month i.e. 15th August 2002. As this is considered an evil day. Otherwise, if one really need to view homes, feel free to view the perspective house. 5. As mentioned earlier, the 7th month taboo, depends greatly on one's perception of it. Traditionally, it is more important to take note of two major taboos:- 1. AVOID Moving-in 2. AVOID travelling during this time. (Travelling would mean e.g. on a holiday or if one is taking out their children, many would avoid bringing them to e.g. water recreation sites e.g. water slides or sky diving, water - diving. Or more of the `dangerous' sports. This does not mean confining the poor child `locked' up at home.) More importantly, close supervision is best. E.g. still ok to bring children to the nearby play ground. Or allowing children to play badmintion, soccer, squash etc..
