Published: 2 August 2024
Looking for a resale public housing flat that has reached its 5-year minimum occupation period (MOP)? For those who are looking for a MOP resale flat at Sembawang, Eastcreek @ Canberra could be an option for you.
Located a short distance from the Canberra MRT station and Canberra Plaza, Eastcreek @ Canberra promises nature and amenities. Could it be your ideal home? Read on for our fengshui review of this Sembawang housing project before you decide.
Eastcreek @ Canberra: Landform Fengshui
Bounded by Sembawang Road and Canberra Street, Eastcreek @ Canberra sits on the Southern Dragon amidst the fengshui land formation of “Thriving Bamboos”. Bamboos, being an auspicious symbol in Chinese culture, indicate the potential for growth and progress. This formation promises positive influences for residents in this area.
Nevertheless, residents of Eastcreek @ Canberra, especially those with elderly and young children, should note that this region is susceptible to strong northeast winds, in particular during the year end monsoon season. As this may cause you or your loved ones to catch a cold easily, do take extra consideration when designing your living space.
External fengshui considerations
As one’s external environment accounts for more than interior considerations, it is important to consider features of the surrounding space when selecting a resale flat.
At Eastcreek @ Canberra, residents enjoy the convenience of having both nature and amenities at its fringe. Arranged in a wavelike manner amid lush landscaping, the design and name of this soon-to-MOP resale housing estate is inspired by the nearby river. In fengshui, flowing water symbolises wealth so could this be a sign of affluence for residents?
Next, we note that some stacks within Eastcreek @ Canberra face a T-junction. From a fengshui perspective, T-junction represents potential Sha energy / poison arrow, where the fast-moving qi may collide with the residential premises, implying severe loss for homeowners in terms of career, health or wealth.
From a practical viewpoint, facing the end of a T-junction means more traffic, which means light pollution (from headlights of oncoming cars at night) and Sound Sha from the traffic. Lower floor units along Sembawang Road and Canberra Street are more susceptible to these disturbances. Affected homeowners may consider installing sound-proof windows or curtains and blinds for a more conducive space.
Regarding the sites reserved for high-rise residential developments surrounding Eastcreek @ Canberra, residents should pay attention to avoid or take measures to counter construction noises and conflicting energies (冲煞) during the development period.
Last but not least, there is a 6-storey Multi-Storey Car Park (MSCP) within Eastcreek @ Canberra. Some units (stack 51, 53, 57, 59, 61, 63, 77, 79) face the MSCP directly, especially if your unit is on the lower storey (below 6 floor).
This implies fengshui conflicting forces (煞气) such as noise pollution (噪音) and headlight flashes from moving cars, which could affect daily life and lead to health problems such as insomnia. To counter this, homeowners can consider installing a window blind or curtains.
Internal fengshui considerations

Did you know that the main orientation of your house will directly influence the overall luck of your household member(s)? The house orientation refers to the facing of your house, which can be measured from the main entrance where qi flows in.

Eastcreek @ Canberra comprises 6 residential blocks of 1,252 units of 2-room Flexi, 3-, 4- and 5-room flats. These blocks range from 15 to 17 storeys in height. The majority of units in this soon-to-MOP housing estate face North/South or Northwest/Southeast, which is ideal in terms of home fengshui in Period 9 and Period 1 (years 2024 – 2063).
Based on fengshui analysis, North and South are the most auspicious directions in these upcoming periods, followed by Northwest and Southeast. We have identified some Period 9 Auspicious Homes, as listed below. Do you live in any of these blocks?
While there is no fixed lucky direction that caters to everyone, those residing in a unit that faces Northeast or Southwest may want to consider a fengshui consultation as these directions are not as favourable in the upcoming fengshui periods.
Besides that, if your main door faces your neighbour’s main door, do display a round light in between the two doors, or hang a Super 5 Shield at the top of your door frame. From a home fengshui viewpoint, conflicting energies between both households may arise and affect harmony if two main entrances face each other directly.

Did you know?
Homeowners with a kitchen island may want to be mindful of the placement of your stove, as it is symbolic of the female homeowner’s health in terms of fengshui.
Building a stove on the kitchen island is not recommended, as it is exposed to qi (energy) from every angle. From a practical perspective, such exposure could also affect the food you cook, leading to health issues. The placement of the stove is best against a wall for stability.
Also, be mindful of the sink location in the kitchen. If it is directly across your kitchen stove, you may want to consider renovation or implement some changes such as installing an island in between (if space permits). This is because having a stove directly facing the sink depicts a clash of elements between fire (stove) and water (sink) that could affect the health of your household members.
Homeowners should be mindful that Period 9, which corresponds with the South, represents a strong Fire element. Therefore, locating important spaces within your premises is crucial. For example, it is best to make adjustments if your stove (also of fire element) is facing South, otherwise too much fire energy can cause instability and burnout for members in the household. If in doubt, always consult a professional fengshui master for appropriate fengshui measures.
