wsnlance 0 Report post Posted October 21, 2010 Just curious, does placement of the water feature require a fengshui consultation? some say place it beside the main door is a good location, others say place it where most of the "qi" accumulate, e.g. in the living room beside the sofa where most people gather. so which one is recommended?

edenstrauss 3 Report post Posted October 22, 2010 (edited) I have a few waterfall features in my home. One of which is next to the main door, such that it's on my right hand side when I enter my flat. This one has a few small fishes in it. The other two is found inside my dining room (west) & living room (southwest). All 3 are recommended by my FS masters.

If you believe fsm, engage one & see what he says. South is "fire". If you don't believe, can put anywhere as you please. Things to consider: - Water tap head, pipes - Power point - Lighting, if necessary - Algae developed over time, esp near sunlight - high humidity to surrounding (singapore already high enought), avoid metallic parts, mirror with mercury at back. - long time exposure to high humidity no good to human bone.

Tiolets, kitchen also got much water, especially those "unwanted" humidity in tiolets. I've spent quite a while looked for mirror without mercury. - I also bought one vacuum cleaner cum de-humidity, costs me SGD3,700, motor with 10 yr warranty. - Late father had advised me serveral times to stay far far away from "water", as water "ke" me. Though I love swimming, sea sports... - From my present house(#23), look out from window, can see 3 kinds of "water" - bedok reservoirs (1 big & 1 small), east coast sea and swimming pools. - My wallet and bank accounts with "water" par par. - So I don't require any "water feature" to be put inside house. Water, see from far ok, stand/stay near, no good lah - humidity. You'll never observe in daily life, once you observed too much this kind of "water", always too late to take actions.

Would say i am a half-believer? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Would say i am a half-believer? Do not let mind runs wild. My understanding of "water feature" as to feng shui is such: - Moving water has "dissolving", "softening", "blending", etc effects to human minds. - You can see many such (not those home ones), placed right in the centre of the entrance to the compound of buildings. - Can see also at "sides" of buildings (building between building)- The condo "Baywater" is a typical example - 2 "feng shui waterball" in between buildings. - These are believed to have the dissoving disputes, softening tension, blending characers of different kind to have good relationship. The placement at such "strategic locations" is to "remind"/"influent" ppls to be more "rounded" in term of way of doing things. - Home? Really already too much "water", personally not recommending. Will create unnecessary tension/arguments between husband/wife/children if owner does not take care and maintain , while other occupants have to take over this duty. Same applies for rearing fish/bird...... Edited October 22, 2010 by bepgof Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
