Published: 3 Mar 2025
Expected to be completed in 2026, Sceneca Residence is a 99-year leasehold mixed development located next to Tanah Merah MRT station. This popular condominium in the East was attributed to the reignited interest in Tanah Merah, which boosted sales of neighbouring underperforming private properties.
With its easy accessibility to amenities, Sceneca Residence continues to garner interest with its remaining 20 units (to date). Could this well-connected condo be your ideal fengshui home invesment? Read on for our fengshui Point Of View with expert insights making every dollar of investment worthwhile!
Landform Fengshui of Sceneca Residences
In Singapore, the Five Dragon Landform Fengshui harnesses “hidden dragons”, which are man-made structures that channel energy flows. Roads act as “dragon veins,” skyscrapers are “mountain dragons” offering stability, and waterways serve as wealth-attracting “water dragons.” The five auspicious dragons, 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.
Sceneca Residence is strategically located near the dragon heart of the Eastern Dragon, the core of the dragon vein, where energy is at its most powerful and auspicious. In fengshui, the dragon heart is the ultimate reservoir of vitality, symbolising prosperity, growth, and success. As one of the rarest and most sought-after energy centers, this prime location enhances wealth accumulation, career advancement, and overall well-being for its residents. With such a potent flow of qi, Sceneca Residence offers a dynamic and prosperous living environment, making it an exceptional choice for those seeking both stability and success.
Fengshui Formation of Sceneca Residences
Located at Tanah Merah Kechil Link next to Tanah Merah MRT station, Sceneca Residence is in the vicinity of Bedok Reservoir, where the Eastern Dragon resides. Here, the fengshui land formation is known as “Golden Coins Falling to the Ground”, shaped by Bedok Reservoir – the symbolic source of wealth. This means that residents in the area are blessed with opportunities of windfall.
However, this formation is also accompanied with two tricky stars – namely the Tao Hua Romance and White Tiger stars – which underlie potential wealth loss despite windfall. As such, one is advised to go by the book and stay down-to-earth.
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.
Directly connected to the bustling Tanah Merah MRT Interchange, Sceneca Residence is conveniently near to various amenities and services. Its prime location offers convenience and vibrance but residents can expect higher traffic and noises.
The proximity to Tanah Merah MRT station implies noise pollution (Sound Sha), especially for units along New Upper Changi Road that face the above ground MRT tracks directly. To reduce noise disturbances at home, homeowners may consider installing sound-proof windows or curtains and blinds.
While units along the Tanah Merah Kechil Link will enjoy greater tranquility, do note that Sceneca Residence resides across the road from Optima @ Tanah Merah – an older condominium with 6 blocks at 14-storey high.
The two developments look well-spaced but homeowners must be mindful of potential conflicting forces (煞气). With several buildings packed together, there is greater likelihood of encountering conflicting forces Sky Cleaving Sha (天斩煞).
Stay mindful of Constriction Sha (困局煞) in particular, which occurs when air currents between two buildings converge to charge at one being sandwiched in between. As residents open their windows for ventilation, they will introduce these inauspicious energies to their home. Affected parties may become listless and pessimistic.
Should your main door be directly in the line of Constriction Sha (困局煞), consider consulting a professional fengshui master on ways to mitigate it.
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.

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.
Did you know that the name Tanah Merah comes from the Malay term for the red cliffs that were once along the coast. These cliffs were used for navigation and to spot approaching enemies. In the early 1970s, land reclamation began, and the coastal hills were leveled and dumped into the sea to create the East Coast.
The location of Tanah Merah Kechil cliff is now where Temasek Primary School stands, which is within 2km of Sceneca Residence.
Prior to selecting a property, it is recommended to take a walk in the estate and take note of the 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, Period 9 corresponds with the South, representing a strong Fire element. As such, you should be mindful of locating important spaces within your premises. 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. Bear in mind that the position of your stove and where it faces is very important.
