Fengshui Review: Sky Eden@Bedok by Frasers

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.

Being in a prime location, Sky Eden@Bedok offers easy accessibility to public transport, shopping malls, food centres, schools, etc. In fact, it’s a stone throw away from Bedok MRT station. Such convenience generally implies a more crowded housing environment and potential Sha (conflict points). 

Although Sky Eden@Bedok lies along New Upper Changi Road where the train tracks are, the developer has strategically designed the residential units to be tucked further in, while amenities such as the swimming pool, social clubhouse, etc. become a buffer that ensures residence minimal noise pollution. 

The sufficient spacing from its surrounding buildings also reduces the risk of common landform conflicts such as sharp corners of nearby buildings that can create oppression.

Interestingly, Sky Eden@Bedok offers the unique feature of having a sky garden on every floor, and various green features within the condominium. From a fengshui perspective, plants represent life energy, vitality, restoration and growth. They are also an expression of the Wood element, which can influence movement, kindness and flexibility. 

This garden-inspired living is definitely a plus point from the view of fengshui. Nonetheless, potential homeowners may want to take note that plants with soft and rounded leaves are typically favoured, as they promote a gentle and nourishing energy. Maintenance is of utmost importance, and whether the green features at Sky Eden@Bedok work in the long run would depend on the facility management.

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.  

Prior to selecting your house or flat, 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.

Some common obstructive landforms include sharp corners of nearby buildings, T-junctions, expressways, train stations, construction sites, etc. as well as buildings (i.e. bridges or subway tracks ) that are built too near to your block and create oppression.

Which fengshui units to choose?

As with most things in life, getting it right from the start will save you lots of effort. More than just the correct placement of furniture or avoiding certain colours, home fengshui looks into compatibility amongst the homeowners and your living spaces. 

With its ideal location and layout, Sky Eden@Bedok ticks several fengshui criteria such as the auspicious orientations of most units and its green features. However, further in-depth analysis is required to determine the suitability of a unit to its homeower(s).
