House/Apartment Number etc.

[myfs_102655]

Dear Cecil,

I am trying to determine a few things so that I can understand a few items in regards to Feng Shui and where I live.

Question #1

is what year to consider my apartment built?

The building itself was built/completed/ and occupied by government officials in the year 1951.

In 1996-7 the building was converted to Loft aparments to rent. I moved in in 1997.

In 1999 the apartments turned to condominiums and I bought the one I was living in.

In 2001-2002 I renovated the apartment that I bought. (there are still a few items that need final touches such as: finish doors etc.)

Question #2

when calculating the House/Apartment number why does your "Free Consultation for House Numbers" have two blanks? do I need to place my apartment number which is #310 with my floor level which is 3? Basically what number exactly need to go into these boxes?

Question #3

When figuring out the compass direction of which way my apartment faces- do I take it from the main entry of my entire apartment building or only from my apartment. & once this is decided is the direction that the home faces calculated by the direction that one faces when entering the home or leaving the home?

Thank you very much. I am very curious here, because well first I am very intriqued by Feng Shui and Second because I believe my house number is very unlucky and has had an effect on our wealth situation which I would like very much to turn around for us as soon as possible.

Thank you very very much.

Sincerely,

Maggie

Question #1

is what year to consider my

apartment built?

The building itself was

built/completed/ and occupied

by government officials in the

year 1951.

In 1996-7 the building was

converted to Loft aparments to

rent. I moved in in 1997.

In 1999 the apartments turned

to condominiums and I bought

the one I was living in.

In 2001-2002 I renovated the

apartment that I bought.

(there are still a few items

that need final touches such

as: finish doors etc.)

Generally, the good thing here is that a period is actually 20-years long. Meaning that period 7 is 1984-2003, period 8 is 2004-2024.

Given that you mentioned that the building was converted to an apartment in 1996. It would be in my opinion that this home would most likely be considered a period 7 house unless any further major renvation was done to the home to alter the luck of the house. It is very unlikely that the house will be considered a 1951 as there would have been massive changes made during the alteration to Loft apartment.

Question #2

when calculating the

House/Apartment number why

does your "Free Consultation

for House Numbers" have two

blanks? do I need to place my

apartment number which is #310

with my floor level which is

3? Basically what number

exactly need to go into these

boxes?

Apartment number report was designed to add an additional level of analysis to help determine of the layout is the same, but one is say located on 7th floor and another on 14th floor, which is better.

So in singapore especially, the unit numbering for your home would be shown as #03-10. Where 03 is level, and 10 is the unit number for that level. Thus, there is two fields.

I believe it should be safe for you to use 3 in the first field and 10 in the second field when using our Apartment Number report.

Question #3

When figuring out the compass

direction of which way my

apartment faces- do I take it

from the main entry of my

entire apartment building or

only from my apartment. &

once this is decided is the

direction that the home faces

calculated by the direction

that one faces when entering

the home or leaving the home?

Generally, given it is an apartment. There are usually two ways to determine the entrance. Yours is on a 3 level, so pretty low. Usually on higher floors such as above 10 floors for example, it is best to take the frontage of the home based on the living room.

In your case, depending on the layout, if the layout plan is such that the door isn't located too oddly or being blocked, you can take the center of the house to the main door. Else, you should take the frontage based on the living room's balcony where most light come into the house.Generally, you take for example from balcony looking out if you take this as the frontage. All really depends on your layout plan and positioning of the door.

Hope that helps.
