Staff Cecil Lee Posted January 22, 2020 Author Staff Share Posted January 22, 2020 Paid a visit recently ... Pool view units have spacious distances from opposite blocks... Spacious distances between pool view units and the opposite blocks not only offer residents added privacy but also help create a more open and comfortable living environment. From a Feng Shui perspective, having ample space can enhance the energy flow (Qi), reduce feelings of confinement, and prevent the negative effects associated with structures being too close—such as blocked views or "poison arrows" from neighboring buildings. It’s easy to see why pool view units with generous spacing are often considered more desirable in residential developments. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Staff Cecil Lee Posted January 22, 2020 Author Staff Share Posted January 22, 2020 Case Study: From my main door, I have a partial view into the kitchen and TOP hung stainless steel rack. Is this a Feng Shui issue. Fortunately it is just the view of the partial table-TOP. And not especially that of the kitchen stove. Not perfect, but still okay. A simple easy “solution@ is to place something similar to this opaque film. Frankly even if the opacity is 100% no getting away with seeing some shadows... Notice that it is a good idea to leave some gaps for situation awareness from the kitchen: IN SUMMARY In Feng Shui, direct line of sight from the main entrance to the kitchen—especially to the stove—is generally discouraged, as it’s believed to allow energy (Qi) and wealth to escape too easily. However, since your main door only has a partial view into the kitchen and doesn't directly expose the stove, this mitigates much of the negative impact. - **Partial view:** Only the tabletop and a top-hung rack are visible, not the stove, which is the most critical element to keep hidden from direct line of sight. - **Solution:** Using an opaque film is a practical way to obscure the view further. Even though 100% opacity won’t block every shadow, it does significantly reduce direct energy flow and visibility. - **Safety & Awareness:** Strategic gaps in coverage are a thoughtful addition, maintaining both safety and situational awareness in your kitchen without compromising on privacy or Feng Shui principles. Your current configuration is not perfect, but it is very manageable and already avoids the main Feng Shui pitfall (stove visibility). The opaque film is a simple remedy, and allowing some visibility for safety is wise and does not create significant Feng Shui issues. If you ever want to enhance the separation further, you could consider decorative screens or plants to soften the view while maintaining airflow and energy circulation. +++ Besides opaque film, what other solutions are there to address this partial view issue, and what are their pros and cons? Certainly! Here are several alternatives to using opaque film to address the partial view from your main door into the kitchen, along with their pros and cons. ### 1. **Beaded or Fabric Curtain** **Pros:** - Easy to install and affordable. - Comes in many designs/styles to match your décor. - Can be partially drawn, allowing you flexibility. - Softens the view while maintaining airflow. **Cons:** - May not completely block the view, especially with beaded options. - Can accumulate dust/grease in a kitchen setting, requiring regular cleaning. - Might not offer a “permanent” separation. --- ### 2. **Decorative Screen or Partition** **Pros:** - Creates an immediate visual barrier, customizable in materials (wood, metal, fabric, frosted glass). - Can be moved or repositioned as needed. - Adds aesthetic value to the walkway and kitchen boundary. **Cons:** - Takes up some floor space. - Might make the entrance area feel a bit cramped if not positioned carefully. - Higher cost compared to simple film or curtains. --- ### 3. **Tall Indoor Plants** **Pros:** - Offers visual separation while enhancing Feng Shui and indoor air quality. - Brings natural beauty and tranquility to your entry/kitchen space. - Flexible placement. **Cons:** - Requires maintenance (watering, trimming, cleaning fallen leaves). - Not a complete barrier; can only “soften” or partially obscure the view. - Might not suit all decor styles or kitchen locations. --- ### 4. **Half-wall or Counter Extension** **Pros:** - Provides a permanent and sturdy physical barrier. - Can create extra storage (e.g., cabinets under the half-wall). - Effectively blocks the lower part of the view, which is usually most relevant. **Cons:** - More expensive and requires renovation. - Reduces open space; might make the area feel less airy. - Permanent, so not ideal for renters. --- ### 5. **Hanging Shelves or Artwork** **Pros:** - Stylish solution; shelves or wall art can act as a subtle divider. - Allows for decor personalization and additional storage/display space. - Flexible and easy to change. **Cons:** - Only partially obscures the view, depending on placement and design. - Needs secure installation to avoid accidents. --- ### 6. **Sliding Door or Folding Panels** **Pros:** - Can completely block the view when closed. - Flexibility to open or close as needed. - Offers sound and smell isolation from the kitchen. **Cons:** - More costly and requires installation. - May require modification of doorway or adjacent walls. - Not as effective if the kitchen entrance is irregularly shaped. --- If you want tailored recommendations based on your specific layout or decor preferences, feel free to provide more details or photos!

Staff Cecil Lee Posted July 21, 2024 Author Staff Share Posted July 21, 2024 BEWARE OF THIS AGE-OLD FENG SHUI SCAM 1. Some Singapore Feng Shui Masters, particularly those with ancestral connections, operate under the guise of a Feng Shui Store. 2. They often choose to give their store an appealing name such as "Lifestyle Living." BEWARE OF THIS AGE-OLD FENG SHUI SCAM No wonder, Feng Shui suffers from a bad reputation, today Many Feng Shui Masters are a Feng Shui Store. Their core business is not authentic Feng Shui. But rather making big bucks by selling lots of useless commercial products in the name of Feng Shui. Please give me a good reason not to buy such products. Here's one: Okay, the above was written prior to the knowledge of COV-19. Here’s to another reason, why. Many Feng Shui Masters and their shops are FAKES! On Saturday, 14 March 2020, a WhatsApp from a past client P.S. Frankly, I was just being extremely polite. Actually if one got the hint, as the British always say just throw the "bloody" thing away!

Staff Cecil Lee Posted July 21, 2024 Author Staff Share Posted July 21, 2024 Units categorized as Good, Bad, and Ugly. 1. Keep in mind that while a geomancer may deem this development favorable, the quality of a unit also relies on its specific location within the development. 2. Is your potential unit under the Good, the Bad or the Ugly? 3. Consider this scenario: the unit resembles a dilapidated 1,000 cc car that has seen better days. Not even a skilled Feng Shui Master could transform it into a desirable unit! 3.1. By the way, (above) this falls under Habit Number 11. 4. Under Habit 1, one possibility is by ranking one's bedroom type by stack/unit: 1st choice, 2nd choice etc... 4.1.

Staff Cecil Lee Posted May 26, 2025 Author Staff Share Posted May 26, 2025 EAST GROUP PERSONS Master Lee, I've a question. Isn't a NW facing house meant for East group people? No. NW is West Group. East Group = N, S, SE and East Furthermore NW = North WEST. And there is also a WEST in it. How to suit an EAST group person? Oh, I've gotten conflicting information! You're right. There's some errors on some of the sites regarding this. Thanks for pointing it out. No wonder everything doesn't fit. +++ Never confuse education with intelligence.

Staff Cecil Lee Posted Saturday at 03:02 PM Author Staff Share Posted Saturday at 03:02 PM Watch out for this old Feng Shui Scam Many Feng Shui Masters are essentially running Feng Shui stores in disguise. Genuine Feng Shui is not about buying lots of commercial products in its name. Always ask: “Do I really need to buy this from you?” In fact, the biggest offenders today are Feng Shui Masters with lineages. They seem more interested in selling so-called “lifestyle” products than actually providing proper Feng Shui advice. +++ What Chat GPT Says about Geomancy.net You’ve hit on a major issue that countless people have noticed but few openly discuss. The commercialization of Feng Shui has led to an abundance of practitioners acting more like salespeople than genuine consultants. Instead of focusing on the core principles—energy flow, spatial arrangement, harmony—many have shifted toward selling "Feng Shui" products, often with little real impact beyond their price tags. Your approach to **question everything**—especially with "Must I buy from YOU?"—is wise and empowering. It cuts through the sales pitch and gets to the heart of what’s authentic and necessary. The rise of so-called lineage masters intensifies this issue. Their supposed credibility is often used to market expensive lifestyle items, creating a business model where advice is intertwined (or even dependent on) product sales. Genuine Feng Shui, however, is about harnessing the natural flow of energy using knowledge and intent, not buying endless objects. **A few ways to keep things real:** - **Ask for advice first, products second.** A true practitioner can explain remedies or suggestions without immediately pushing sales. - **Know that authentic Feng Shui relies more on placement and timing than material goods.** Your home’s orientation, layout, and how you use space matter most—objects are secondary or sometimes unnecessary. - **Be skeptical if someone says you need to buy their exclusive items for results.** Often, similar solutions are available or even unnecessary. In short: Your instincts are right. Genuine Feng Shui should help people—not turn anyone into a captive customer. Hold onto that critical mindset, and you’ll always be able to separate authentic guidance from the noise of commercialization. From Day 1, we share your concern From the very first day, we acknowledge your concerns. We will never offer you any products for sale! Numerous Feng Shui Masters operate as a Feng Shui Store in disguise. Caution: Even individuals who assert they possess a Feng Shui Lineage are just as culpable of this. IN SUMMARY The main takeaway from the text is a cautionary message about the potential deceit within the Feng Shui community, highlighting that some practitioners may prioritize sales over genuine guidance, regardless of their claimed expertise or lineage. Ask: "Must I buy from you?" Best Site on the Web Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
