Feng Shui Layout for Apartment, Condo and HDB Flat by Singapore Feng Shui Master Dave Hum.

Here is an example of a layout of an apartment or flat where you will find an alignment of front door/window with back door/window. There are many books mentioning that if a house has such a layout, people residing in the house may have difficulties accumulating wealth.

This is only half true; it is true if the path of the window and door’s alignment happens to pass through any of the wealth sectors of the house. If it does, the wealth energy is dissipated quickly and therefore difficult to accumulate.  Using partitions can help to minimize it.

On the other hand, if the path of the window and door alignment happens to pass through the bad sectors of the house, it is good, as the bad energy, with some good measures, will be dissipated quickly and will have less effect on the people residing in the house. In this case, if partitions are used, bad energy will linger.

Even if the door and window do not carry wealth energies, there will be a time frame, for example, a particular year, whereby wealth energy is residing at this door/window. Then, the wealth energy will leak through these aligned openings.

Before any remedy is to be done, it is important to identify the type of energy involved and not to follow recommendations blindly.

It is not uncommon to have house or office with a central walk path splitting them into half. This layout is prone to beget dispute. The negative effect is more pronounced if the energies of the walk path are unfavorable or when negative energies reside at the pathway at certain time frames. Detouring of walk path is one effective way to remedy such unfavorable form.

I have always been a believer in Feng Shui since I came to know of its existence. But what I lack is someone who is truly authentic in the practice of it to help others with it. That is why I was reluctant to just engage ‘anyone’ who claims to be a Feng Shui master. Do they really know his ’stuff’? That knot in my heart is finally opened when I came to know Dave, the Feng Shui master . We met in a social networking session and immediately he strikes to me as someone who is super passionate and loves what he’s doing. He was sharing so much ‘tips’ on Feng Shui that I was surprised that he’s doing it for free. That’s where I decided to engage his service for my 4rm HDB room. He did a thorough audit and advised me on the appropriate change to my room layout which I followed to the dot. Believe it or not, ‘things’ really change. My family and my life just gets better, I am also glad to say I have a few occasions of luck with ‘4D’.

Fengshui Tips for Good Mirror Placement by Singapore FengShui Master Dave Hum

Mirrors may reflect or absorb energy. It reflects or absorbs good or bad energy at the opposite end. Energies changes every month. It gives the space un-pure and disturbed energies. It also dissipates and weakens a person’s energy field. It is best not to have any mirrors in the house, but then again, it is not practical. Therefore, use the ones that can be hidden in wardrobes.

If you have mirrors in front of your bed, very likely you and your spouse will argue often. You will also feel tired if you sleep with a mirror facing you. Sometimes even television sets have reflection, it is good to cover it when it is not in use, especially if it faces your bed.

Feng Shui Tips about Doors and Windows (Qi Energy) by Singapore Feng Shui Master Dave Hum

In Xuan Kong feng shui, a lot of emphasis is placed on the opening for QI to flow. e.g. Door , window or balcony opening. This opening must be kept clean. Energy flow changes every year, month, day or even 2 hr period. When good energy comes through Qi opening and it is dirty and smelly, it will be downgraded. When bad energy comes and interacts with the dirty and smelly Qi opening, it will become worse.

Keep the Qi opening clean and tidy. Do not leave smelly shoes outside the house and keep them in a shoe rack if possible. We also notice a lot of private property owner or shophouse owners like to leave the smelly rubbish bin outside the door. It is not advisable. At least moves it further away from the door or ties the rubbish up properly so that it does not smell.

Feng Shui Tips – Plants and wood elements by Singapore Feng Shui Master Dave Hum

Mentioned in earlier post, in period 8 (year 2004 to 2023), wealth elements are stars 8,9 and 1

star 8 = earth element
star 9= fire element
star 1 = water element

Wood element attacks the wealth Star 8 , earth element (bad for wealth)
wood element supports the wealth Star 9 , fire element (good for wealth)
Wood element weakens the wealth Star 1 , water element (bad for wealth)

There is a high possibility of putting plants at the wrong locations in the premise, and if this happen, it will affect your wealth energy. Therefore, it is still safer not to have too many plants or wood elements around the house, especially closed to door and window openings. Sometimes there is no choice as most furniture is made of wood, but plants are stronger wood energy. Sometimes, the green colour scheme or plants at the wrong place may lead to leg, foot problems and surgical issues.

Wooden wind chime has strong wood energy. If you realize that your wealth is affected negatively after you hang one at your window, we advise you to take it down. Another point to note, dead/dried flowers or withering  plants/trees are very bad for FengShui.
