myfs_157011 Posted March 7, 2013 Share Posted March 7, 2013 Hello All,I am in the position to purchase a home, but a little reluctant on the transaction. The reason is the house is position at an angle on a square lot. Does anyone see this being a problem. here is a picture of the house. It's strange, but this is the only house that is position like this. Can anyone withknowledgeabout this respond. Thanks. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Staff Cecil Lee Posted March 7, 2013 Staff Share Posted March 7, 2013 These are some considerations:1. I did a search in this forum for a specific past posting (similar to the home you mentioned):-http://forum.geomancy.net/phpforum/article.php?bid=2&fid=6&mid=29112&new=?pagewanted=all2. Frankly, the tilting of the home may either be intentional (Feng Shui) or unintentional:-2.1. If intentional (in the name of Feng Shui) then, most likely the idea was to tilt it either to a home owner's suitable direction AND/OR facing and sitting a good direction.2.2. One plus point is that this is a reasonably large piece of LAND and another advantage is that it is standalone e.g. a bungalow house. Thus, even if the house is tilted; and depending on Para 2.1 (if any); it can or may be acceptable.3. Castle Gate Theory: Often, for a home at a road junction; some consult a geomancer to tilt the entrances. Here, we do not know for sure Castle Gate Theory has been used (as more study may be needed, here.) 3.1. Tilting a home can have some advantage; especially to avoid any poison arrow(s) in the form of a neighour's sharp or pointed roof or even lone lamp post.3.2. With the tilting, this home now has four corners aimed outwards. Thus it (the home) itself becomes a "porcupine" spewing sha qi (poison arrows) towards all four sides of it's neighbour. Not exactly a bad thing for this home. But not as good for it's neighbour.4. In general, in Feng Shui, we call this a non-conformist home. But (if done for the right "purpose" intentional or non-intentional may not be a bad thing altogether.5. As mentioned, earlier under Para 2.2.; as this piece of land is pretty large; therefore, tilting a home on it's own has no major liabilities in terms of Feng Shui if the intention to "maximise" it's Feng Shui e.g. such as a "better" facing direction etc...6. In the 2nd posting, even in Singapore, (but high rise context) one can see similar situation but abeit these are high rise as opposed to landed property. But still same thing. Thus, it is more common, than what you may think. (Especially high-rise situations).

Staff Cecil Lee Posted March 7, 2013 Staff Share Posted March 7, 2013 Please refer to attachment.The street directory plan shows high-rise developments as opposed to landed property.But you can see the similarities with the earlier home you posted.Majority of the apartment blocks are parallel to each other: such as Blks 127, 128A/B/C/D with Blks 126, 109, 110, 171 and 172.While Nautilus@Punggol 169 A/B/C/D and 170 A/B/C's share a similar tilt to your earlier photo. And this small development is at a road junction.Thus, this is a simple example to show that it is not as uncommon as what you may think.
