Case Study 1: Temple beside HDB Garden Vines @ Tengah

The allocated squarish plot of land means that most likely the frontage of the temple is facing SW. And the rear of the temple is at NE.

LEGEND: 

Red = Units located at the region of NE of the temple. Can be come an unexpected portal for the netherworld. As NE is generally considered as the devil's "front door".

Green = In close proximity of the future Chinese temple. Last resort or last consideration purchase as it is also in the path of the NE "Devil's highway"

Unit's in RED affected by Devil's front gate (Generally unlucky). Any units furthest away from the GREENs are the least affected such as #420 & #422 and beyond them.

Placement of altar may inadvertently become a portal for spirits to enter and exit.

There is no doubt that this future temple will be aligned at an SW to NE alignment. If so, this is extremely bad luck for those units within the NE zone. Especially units ranging from 1st storey to 4th storey high.

Both Chinese Feng Shui and Indian Vastu principles ... share the (above) same thoughts...

Many temples purposely align themselves to a NE-SW or SW-NE depending on their intended purpose. 

The famous Lian Shan Shuang Lin Monastery at Toa Payoh is aligned at a North Easterly direction. (However, this is not based on Flying Stars alignment. The temple is aligned precisely or exactly at a 10 degrees to 190 degrees for a specific purpose.)

In the past, I received several SOS separately from some residents at block 255 and also 253....

By right, the temple could have been aligned North to South similar to block 194. But because of this temple; many HDB blocks has no choice also aligned to the temple’s profile.

The above Lian Shan Shuang Lin Monastery plus the Kong Meng San Phor Kark See Monastery (Sin Ming - also known as Bright Hill) are never aligned exactly true North to South. But again;  if one compares the two outlines of these templese, these two temples are tilted towards a North-Easterly direction. Again, for a specific reason.

In Indonesian or Malay origin.. the word to describe this situation is "Mampus"  = sure to die...

Case Study 2: Garden Vines uses only even numbering of stacks/units such as #464 or #466.

Hi! I stay at Block 238B Garden Vines #04-444.

1. Thus one can find unit numbers such as e.g. #04-446 or #05-466.

2. One also can find even unit number like 444.

3. Frankly: "One man's meat is another man's poison applies, here".

4. Some Chinese (especially the Cantonese dialect group) find 4 = sounds like "die". And here, 444 to some means die, die and die!.

5. If in doubt, skip these stacks/units since it may sometimes affect the re-sale value.

[Cecil Lee]

Case Study 3: If these zig-zag and jagged boundary is true than this has to be one of the weirdest "division" of property!

1. Luckily both plots: HDB Garden Vines and HDB Garden Vale are public plots of land.

2. Imagine if one day it becomes SERS or either plot sold to private developers, many developers would think twice about purchasing the plot of land.

3. Just imagine, if a developer of an EC/condo may have to spent lots more to install their boundary wall or fencing, here! 

4. Truly, honestly, this is the first ever development in Singapore or for that matter in the entire world that has such a dividing line! Crazy! The planner of HDB Garden Vale must either be very drunk or intoxicated or most likely by now could be resting at IMH (Institute of Mental Health, Hougang).

4. Technically, if it is just drawn here as a virtual border, then really no issue. As even if there is a fence between the two plots; the sharp corners of such a fence is low. And often does not go up to 2nd storeys. 

5. Most likely this stepped or jagged edges had led the planners of HDB Garden Vines to plan the blocks parallel to the RED border-line.

[Cecil Lee]

Case Study 4:  Samples of Potential Poison arrow aimed towards a unit

1. The block layouts HDB Garden Vines ensure that there are many sharp corners of neighbouring blocks aimed towards a unit.

2. Frankly, I tried my best to locate as many such potential poison arrors.

3. However, as you can see the illustration below is a tangled web of lines and arrow.

4. Thus, if you can understand the methology, I am sure you may be able to spot another unit with the same concern...

 

[Cecil Lee]

Case Study 5: Common Bin Lobby (CBL) and near-by units

1. Where possible try to avoid purchasing a unit at stack #348 and #392. This is because the CBL is close-by to the frontage of the unit.

1.1 Of course, if the CBL is well-maintained and clean and tidy is fine.

1.2. But what happens if one has neighbours that dump junk and waste materials outside the bins.

1.3. For example, hopefully, no inconsiderate home owners dump or discard durian shells and eaten seeds at the lobby. Hopefully, the wind does not blow these smells towards one's living rooms and open bedroom windows at stacks #348 and #392.

[Cecil Lee]

Are you new, here?

Excited to post a question about a stack or stacks?

I suggest you read this, first...

Case 6A: Sha Qi from a long straight corridor leading towards the main entrance door(s)

1. It is certainly a surprise to see this type of block / corridor arrangement where a long corridor flows towards the main entrance doors.

2. However, there are still some layouts that are not exactly straight flowing but at a slight angle leading indirectly towards a main door.

3. I observed none at all from January 2019 till I saw this..

4. A total of four (4) stacks have a long straight corridor leading towards their main entrance door:

4.1. The thin red lines is like a crude "waves" or disturbed qi:-

5.1. Above:  Showing the corridor leading towards stacks #448 and #450.

6. In additional there are four more stacks with the same corridor layout orientation:-

6.1. Above: The four (4) additional stacks are: #324, #326, #372 and #374.

7. If you intend to have a habit of leaving the main entrance door opened majority of the time when at home... should consider looking elsewhere.

[Cecil Lee]

Case Study 6B: Potential Poison Arrow from the sharp corner of the corridor side-wall.

1. Illustration showing the sharp corner of the corridor wall / railing aimed towards stack #450 main entrance door/opening.

2. Purple arrow is aimed towards stack #448.

 

3. Below: Full illustration showing the two stacks/units in relation to the common lobby area:

 

4. The four (4) additional stacks are: #324, #326, #372 and #374 with similar concerns or issues.

4.1. Sample photo showing similar sharp corners aimed towards the main entrance door:

4.2 Two photos extracted from the above link.

4.2.1 Note: Above is not from HDB Garden Vines (in the event that it had T.O.P. Clue = photo taken sometime in the year 2011.

Case Study 7: Any concern with the Bin Centre (PWCS)?

1. The planners of this estate did a marvelous job in not only placing the Bin Centre tucked at one corner but also sandwiched it with the Electrical Sub-Station (ESS) as a buffer with the nearest stacks 310, 300, 302 308.

1.1. In addition, the bin centre also next to the temple... as to whether the future temple supervisors like it or not, the temple people has no control over it.

2. Thus no issue for stacks in HDB Garden Vines.

3. It may become a stigma for the the future design of the directly opposite : "Site reserved for Future High rise residential development.

3.1. As mentioned, this is as they say "not our problem" .... at Garden Vines! LOL!

4. The PWCS system relies on suction. And when I first visited CDL's The Venue, there was a signage with so many Don't do this Don't do that on that single signage above the common bin.

4.1 Extracted this photo from a previous posting on The Venue at Potong Pasir:-

4.2 Above: This are a total of Twelve (12) Don'ts! Can you figure what they are?

4.3. A few weeks later, I see an advisory notice with photos of the clogged bin pipes... and not to throw certain items down the chute....

4.4. This is because the vacuum suction many not be able to move heavy objects.. even things like liquid waste in a sealed plastic bag may have a problem.

4.5. But I believe eventually, and hopefully if all residents do their part, this may not be of a common occurence!

Hi, May i know if Unit 344 is a good unit number?

1. Numbers such as 4, 44 or sometimes even numbers ending with a 44 may be deemed by some Chinese as inauspicious.

2. Frankly, this has nothing to do with Feng Shui or Numerology. 

2.1. Even in the field of numerology, there are many or even hundreds of various numerology formulas: which result in either: auspicious or inauspicious meaning. 

3. The significance of: "One man's meat is another person's poison" applies.

4. I know of some individuals who instead find 4 or 44 or 444 lucky.

4.1. But frankly, this sample is much smaller in the Chinese culture especially from the Cantonese dialect group and or their influence in other Chinese communities.

4.2. Thus more so especially in Hong Kong.

5. Even if one is neutral to such a number with 4 or 44 or sometimes even with a 3 + 4 + 4 = 344.

6. What this translate to is that in the future, if one decides to sell the unit, there may be some who don't like the number even if one is neutral to it.

7. Sometimes, this may even result in a potential buyer giving low-ball offers.

7.1. Thus the marketability of the unit may or may not be questionable in such a situation.

Case Study  8: Every temple has a a burning offering mount or chimney. Some nicely decorated as a Pagoda. (Location: HDB Garden Vines BTO)

For the future temple, there is a possibility that such an offering mount could be located at y or z:-

 

Here, even, if the temple is no threat to the occupants to a unit, the frequent burning of 

 

Thus in some instances even if the "temple does not kill-one". Depending on wind or air-flow, these fumes may-kill. 

Frankly, there is no such thing as complaining about such things. Have to honestly take-it or leave-it, please.
