Wondering if Chencharu Grove could be your ideal fengshui home? Read on for our in-depth fengshui review to find out!

Landform Fengshui: Chencharu Grove in Yishun

In Singapore, the Five Dragon Landform Fengshui harnesses “hidden dragons”, which are man-made structures that channel energy flows. From the lens of fengshui, roads act as “dragon veins”, skyscrapers as “mountain dragons” offering stability, and waterways serve as wealth-attracting “water dragons”.

The five auspicious dragons, namely Eastern, Western, Southern, Northern, and Central, along with the Singapore and Kallang Rivers, converge to drive the city’s growth and prosperity, with each dragon influencing a region’s success.

Bounded by Bah Soon Pah Road and Chencharu Link, Chencharu Gove sits on the body of the Southern Dragon, also known as the “Wealth Dragon”. Being near a dragon’s body indicates stable qi flow, which is ideal for long-term residence or business. This also implies that people staying in this region enjoy central support and nurturing strength.

Fengshui Formation: Chencharu Grove in Yishun

From a fengshui perspective, Yishun has the fengshui formation of the “Land of Collapsed Plum Blossom”. The flower and stem of the plum blossom, along with the Lower Seletar Reservoir as the backdrop, portrays an auspicious fengshui setting, which has benefited many well-known businessmen.

Yishun residents are believed to have strong earning potential and a good quality of life. This northern district exudes a sense of tranquillity, which makes it a suitable location for self-cultivation.

Exterior 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 new home.

Set in the developing estate of Chencharu in the mature town of Yishun, Chencharu Grove will be incorporated with lush greenery, similar to the neighbouring Chencharu Green. Residents of this upcoming BTO project can look forward to a conducive home environment without compromising on accessibility to amenities and services, as it is positioned right next to schools and an integrated development.

The integrated development will include a bus interchange and hawker centre. While this spells convenience for future Chencharu Grove residents, do note that some stacks within Block 969C and 971B face the high-rise commercial and residential integrated development directly, which may be susceptible to conflict points. Residents of these units can also expect greater noises from traffic or even cooking fumes from the hawker centre.

Sitting to the east of the BTO development are Peiying Primary School and Naval Base Secondary School, which will benefit school-age families. In fact, some stacks directly face the schools, and parents can literally look into the school compound from the comfort of their home. On the other hand, residents can expect greater noises and heavier traffic during peak hours. As such, those who prefer greater privacy and quietude may want to consider inner stacks or those along Bah Soon Pah Road.

Some stacks at 969A and 969B (rental block) face the 6/7-storey Multi-Storey Car Park (MSCP) directly. As these stacks face the MSCP directly, residents at the lower storeys are likely affected by conflicting forces (煞气) such as noise pollution (噪音) and headlight flashes from moving cars. This could cause disturbances to daily life such as insomnia. To counter this, homeowners can consider installing a window blind.

With six blocks within the BTO project, those balloting for a unit at Chencharu Grove should also be mindful of conflicting forces such as Sharp Edge Sha (尖角煞) and Wall Blade Sha (壁刀煞). The former occurs when a residential unit faces the sharp edge of a neighbouring structure. Such negative energies can result in increased anxiety and inability to concentrate, which may affect career and academic development. The latter occurs when a residential unit faces the sharp edge of a neighbouring structure. In such scenarios, it is best to consult a professional fengshui practitioner.

Last but not least, as Chencharu is a developing area, Chencharu Grove residents can expect on-going construction surrounding your home. Stay mindful of pollution and negative energies (Sha Qi) during the construction period.

Internal fengshui considerations

When it comes to choosing an ideal unit, keep in mind that the main orientation of a house will directly influence the overall luck of its residents. The house orientation refers to the facing of your house, which can typically be measured from the main entrance where qi flows in.

Chencharu Grove comprises six residential blocks of 2-room Flexi, 3-room, 4-room, and 5-room flats, ranging from 12 to 15 storey in height. In total, there are 826 units.

Based on fengshui analysis, North and South are the most auspicious directions in the Period 9 and 1 (years 2024 – 2063), and Northwest and Southeast are the second most auspicious directions. It is recommended to choose a unit that faces either of these directions or lies at the border of these directions to tap on the positive energies.

We have categorised the units at Chencharu Grove under the Period 9 Auspicious Home Ranking chart, as listed below.

Some units at Chencharu Grove face the most auspicious directions of the current fengshui period. However, many units lie on the boundary between two directions, indicated with the warning sign. Aspiring homebuyers may want to seek a professional fengshui consultation for guidance.

Did you know?

Events and happenings within a space create energy vibrations that can either be positive or negative. These are not limited to indoor spaces, but could also be infused into the estate that you plan to live in. Hence, it makes sense to understand the history of your to-be neighbourhood, especially recent happenings that could leave traces of remnant energies.

For your info, Chencharu was home to plantations and farms in the 1900s before it was redeveloped for various uses. Chencharu Grove reflects the area’s heritage as a landscape of fruit trees and other crops.

You are recommended to take a walk in the estate prior to selecting your flat. Take note of features of surrounding buildings that may harbour threats of negative influences or hinder ventilation within your home. The main idea is to garner and ensure the smooth flow of positive Qi (energy) within your new home while avoiding Sha Qi (negative energies).

Sha Qi in the environment surrounding your home can manifest into loss of wealth, accidents, and sickness. If there are sharp edges pointed towards your potential home, then it is best to consider another unit or seek advice from a professional fengshui practitioner.

Also, did you know that Period 9 is influenced by a wealth star, indicating growing fortune and propitiousness? If your home faces North or South – the most auspicious directions in this fengshui period, consider seeking a fengshui consultation for your home renovation so you and your household members can better grasp opportunities as well as create wealth.
