Landform fengshui: Penrith at Margaret Drive in District 3 (D3)

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.

Located along Margaret Drive, Penrith sits at the convergence of three districts, namely Tiong Bahru, Alexandra, and Queenstown. Its strategic location also puts this upcoming new condo near the head of the Western Dragon

Did you know? Living near a Dragon head can be beneficial for career breakthroughs or visionary pursuits, as fresh qi tends to be concentrated around the area. However, energy can be intense. Hence, such areas are best suited for those with resilient or ambitious personalities.

Fengshui Formation: Penrith at Margaret Drive in D3 

Penrith at Margaret Drive belongs to the fengshui formation of the “Land of White Horse”, characterised by enthusiasm and loyalty. Long-time residents of the horse land shall benefit from its positive energies and attain success on their career front. 

However, one should not overlook the horse’s shortcomings, such as being over-ambitious and lacking determination. The latter could result in failures and cause one to lose fighting spirit.

The energetic nature of the horse makes Queenstown an ideal place for business start-ups, while those who wish to hold on to existing businesses may find it challenging.

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.

Inspired by the English town for which it is named after, Penrith at Margaret Drive is set in the heart of Queenstown at the city fringe. Designed with landscaping and communal spaces that feature heritage-style gazebos and gardens, this newly launched 2025 condo is set amongst HDB flats, condos, and landed homes. Nearby, residents have access to Queenstown MRT station, schools, parks, and retail hubs like IKEA Alexandra and Anchorpoint.

Standing at 40-storey tall, Penrith offers residents a skyline with unblocked views, particularly for those along Margaret Road that overlooks the Rainbow Centre and landed houses. From a fengshui perspective, 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 also essential in the fengshui principle of accumulating auspicious energies (藏风纳气). 

One thing to note though, units at Penrith are designed in a way where the main door faces the balcony. This implies certain challenges to accumulating auspicious energies. Thankfully, there are simple remedies to such situations. Don’t hesitate to consult a professional fengshui master for appropriate fengshui measures.

Some people may also have concerns about staying near places of worship. From a fengshui perspective, places of worship are where devotees gather and pray, hence it will congregate a strong force of energy that may cause a qi imbalance to its surroundings. It is believed that facing the cross of a church directly is unfavourable for long-term dwellers. 

While Penrith faces the Queenstown Baptist Church directly, do note that concluding the qi condition based on the place of worship alone is not an inclusive move. To evaluate the auspiciousness of an area, we need to consider factors like If in doubt, consider consulting a fengshui master.

Also, homeowners and potential investors should stay mindful of conflicting points from nearby structures or buildings. For example, Penrith’s location next to Queenstown Primary School implies convenience for families with young children. However, lower floor units may want to keep a lookout for potential points of conflicts such as corner Sha (角煞) where sharp corners present hidden threats, etc. 

The convenience of staying in a vibrant neighbourhood often means more crowded housing spaces alongside human and noise traffic. Amidst the high urban density in Queenstown, remember that high-rise buildings in proximity can present conflicting forces such as Sharp Edge Sha (尖角煞) and Wall Blade Sha (壁刀煞). 

If in doubt, always consult a professional fengshui practitioner. Whether you are looking to invest in a unit at Penrith or to create a harmonious environment in your new home, Way Fengshui is ever-ready to be of service.

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 a 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?

A headboard represents stability and support in your life, especially your romantic relationships. Hence, a solid and smooth headboard (without perforations) made of natural materials is recommended. 

It is also best to leave these electronic devices out of your bedroom or hide them as best you can. If you already want to have a television in your room, you may want to consider placing it in an armoire or cover it neatly with a cloth when not in use. 

For optimal fengshui benefits, it is best to align your bed position with your Bazi needs and ensure you have a clear vantage of the doorway (while not being in direct alignment). If in doubt, consider consulting a fengshui practitioner for a fengshui review.
