Water (水) is an important element of Feng Shui. In the Burial Book (葬书), an ancient classic on Feng Shui, there is a Chinese verse: 乘风则散，界水则止. This is literally translated as Qi is dispersed by the Wind and gathers at the boundaries of Water. This best describe that in Feng Shui, water plays an important role in the gathering and collection of Qi. It is also used as a mean to “block” and redirect Qi, as well as to neutralize or minimize the impact of Sha-Qi (煞气). Therefore, water is mostly used in Feng Shui to activate, circulate and maneuver Qi. In additional, Good Water generating Sheng-Qi (生气) must be quiet, gentle, and clean. Besides free flowing, it must also be slow moving.

Everyone wants a good living and comfortable spaces called home. They will want their property to enjoy good Feng Shui whether as their Dream Home or an valued-investment with good future returns or ROI (Return On Investment). Practising long term Feng Shui on your property can gradually help to minimize negative impact and bad influence.
However, as Feng Shui is dynamic and cyclical, what good Feng Shui now, may be Bad later. Therefore, ascertaining good Feng Shui in a short-term period becomes important, especially for those who want to see quicker results in Feng Shui. Hence, qualifying a good Feng Shui property for both long and short-term basis will be highly beneficial to the residents.

| A Qi Map or Chart of a Southwest1 facing Period 8 property with Xuan Kong Flying Stars The Unit's frontage is facing the waterway and open greenery park. |
Xuan Kong Flying Stars is one of the San-Yuan Feng Shui system, highly focuses on the transformation of Qi in a specific time period. This Feng Shui principle is best suitable for people who want to improve their property Feng Shui in a specific period of time.
We have now moved to Period 8 starting from 2004 to 2023. The Southwest location is a good sector for Southwest facing properties in Period 8. If there is water in this location, it will bring about more opportunities in wealth generation and career advancement within this period. Water is best to be real and natural from the external environment, like waterway, ponds, swimming pools, etc. But if the external environment does not have water, then an aquarium or water/fish tank can be placed in the southwest sector of the property. This is specifically applicable to Southwest1 (202.6 – 217.5 degrees) facing property in Period 8.
Alternatively, should the southwest sector is not available for water, then always check if there is water in the North outside your property. If no, then try to locate an aquarium in the North sector.
This is an example of a 5-room unit in the Waterway Terraces II @ Punggol. With reference to the above Floor Plan of a Southwest1 facing Period 8 property, the Qi map reveals that it is best to locate water, like an aquarium or water/fish tank, at the Balcony or near the Main Door.
As a matter of fact, the Main Door is already located in a good sector of a SW1 facing unit in the current Period. Furthermore, the windows of the Bedrooms and the Balcony are also Southwest facing the waterway and open greenery space or park in the building's frontage, which are timely and a good feature in Period 8.
Please be mindful that all matters have 2 faces. Water can improve your Property Feng Shui, but when administrated wrongly can also bring undesirable impact to the residents as well.
