Besides attractive location and property value, fengshui plays an important role in optimising household harmony and luck. So, read on for our fengshui review on Arina East Residences at Tanjong Rhu to find out if it makes an ideal fengshui home or worthy investment for you!

Landform fengshui: Arina East Residences in District 15 

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.

Arina East Residences is nestled along the body of the Eastern Dragon, a fengshui position known for its steady, nurturing energy and potential for lasting prosperity. The Dragon’s Body symbolises the flow of qi in its most stable and balanced form, making it an ideal location for those seeking long-term growth, harmony, and success. However, this area also requires the support of good fortune and a grounded foundation to fully unlock its benefits. With its auspicious placement, Arina East Residences offers a tranquil and supportive environment where residents can thrive, build stability, and cultivate a fulfilling future.

Fengshui Formation of Arina East Residences

Located along Tanjong Rhu Road in the precinct of East Coast/Marine Parade (D15), Arina East Residences sits on the Eastern Dragon, and belongs to the “Tai Gong Fishing” formation. This is similar to the “Li Bai Ploughing the Field” formation in Telok Kurau.

Both fengshui formations include notions of waiting for the right opportunity and staying carefree. This explains continuous developments along the East Coast. Despite being a man of talents, Jiang Tai Gong’s expertise was only discovered by Emperor Zhou Wen when he was 80 years old.

It should be noted that Jiang Tai Gong did not waste decades of his life waiting for this opportunity. He used the time to ponder over state affairs. Similarly, residents staying here may be waiting for the right opportunity but it will not do good to stay idle.

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.

Located in the exclusive waterfront estate of Tanjong Rhu, the freehold Arina East Residences offers exclusivity without compromising on accessibility due to its proximity to the Katong Park MRT station and Nicoll Highway, East Coast Parkway (ECP) etc.

One of the highlights of Arina East Residences is its expansive views (including Marina Bay, East Coast, Geylang River)! We reckon some higher floor units can enjoy unblocked views, with several units getting river or sea views.

In landscape fengshui, unblocked views are favoured as it represents the Red Phoenix, symbolising aspirations and a bright future. Such smooth flow of energy in the absence of points of conflict (sha) is essential.

Also, a household is considered auspicious and blessed with prosperity and abundance if you can see flowing water from your living room, especially if there is a large door or window that allows an inflow of energy from the river across your home.

Nevertheless, it is crucial to determine the river flow direction to determine if having a view of the flowing water is indeed beneficial to one’s household. If in doubt, it is best to seek advice from a professional fengshui practitioner.

Arina East Residences is also designed with nature in mind. Integrating modern conveniences and lush greenery, residents can relax in an idyllic setting while enjoying city comforts. Nevertheless, homeowners must be mindful if your unit is close to trees and plants.

While plants may be a symbol of vitality and growth, it can introduce unwanted pests into our homes if they are too close to entrances. Besides that, trees can also deflect incoming auspicious energies.

Surrounded mostly by private condominiums, potential homeowners of Arina East Residences should explore the estate and take note 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.

Be it for residential or investment, choosing a choice fengshui unit can be daunting, especially for first-time homeowners. Way Fengshui provides end-to-end fengshui services from selecting an ideal unit to helping you create a harmonious environment in your new home. So, if you have doubts, don’t hesitate to reach out for a fengshui consultation!

Internal fengshui considerations

Homeowners should bear in mind the main orientation of your house, as it 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.

Tip: Did you know a physical Luopan (fengshui compass) is much more sensitive to the Qi, energy of the house than an digital compass? You can use our Free Way Almanac App to know your rough direction of your house. It is still advisable to get a professional fengshui  Master to fix your home direction.

Did you know?

Period 9 corresponds with the South, representing a strong Fire element. As such, one should be mindful of locating important spaces within your premises. For example, it is crucial 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.

In fengshui, the stove represents “the female owner of the house”. As such, the state of the stove in your house represents the condition of your mother or wife. If your stove happens to face South, you are highly recommended to consult a professional fengshui master for appropriate fengshui measures.
