Zhai Methodology

Quick read

Zhai is methodology-driven commercial fengshui for Singapore — a documented framework, not a personal practitioner. Every audit scores 9 measurable locale inputs against your trade's five-element profile, then surfaces the top risks and levers in plain English. Five sub-pages below describe exactly what we check and how.

The framework

What this means for your audit

You don't need to read the sub-pages to commission an audit — the report is written for non-practitioners. The methodology is published so you can verify what we look at and why a finding is reasoned the way it is, not so you have to learn classical fengshui. Every audit is stamped with the methodology version it was generated against (currently v0.1, 2026-05-17).

For the curious — proprietary boundary & versioning detail

Everything on these methodology pages is public. The proprietary layer is the per-trade per-sector calibration table — the specific point weights applied to each combination of trade × sector × Period 9 × facing, derived from Zhai's audit case-study database. This is what's bought when you commission an audit; it stays internal by design.

Methodology versions are append-only. If the framework updates, prior reports remain valid against the version stamped on the PDF — a v0.1 audit doesn't become "wrong" when v0.2 ships, it just predates the revision.

Grounded in classical Xuan Kong fengshui (玄空风水) + Singaporean commercial real-estate observation. Maintained by Zhai — Commercial — Singapore.
