Chinese Astrology and Feng Shui 2011

Posted on November 27, 2018 by blogger

The year 2011 is the year of Xin Mao or the Metal Rabbit which carry the Heavenly Stem of Xin or Yin Metal and the Earthly Branch of Mao or Rabbit. The first day of the Chinese Solar year (also known as Li Chun in Chinese) arrives on the 4th February 2011. However, the first day of the Chinese Lunar New Year starts on the 3rd February 2011 and it is a day celebrated by all Chinese people in the world based on custom and tradition.

This year, the houses that face east or west are likely to face more challenges and adversities. This is because in 2011, the Tai Sui or Grand Duke Jupiter is at the East (E2). The situation is made worse by the unlucky star Wu Wang (also known as Five Yellow) which also flies into the east sector. This star brings misfortunes and calamities. If your door, bedroom or places that you spend a lot of time are located in the east or face east, then you are most likely to be afflicted with its negative energy. You can weaken its energy by placing metal objects in the east sector.

The west sector (W2) will be afflicted by the Sui Poh or Year Breaker which is directly opposite Tai Sui. There is also the San Sha or Three Killings which exerts its inauspicious energy in the West this year. To counter the negative effect of the San Sha, you can place live plants in the West sector.

As you can see, the east and west sectors are mostly influenced by these negative energies.

All the inauspicious energies of Tai Sui, Sui Poh, San Sha and Wu Wang are activated by breaking the ground, nailing the wall and renovation works. The negative effects of these afflictions bring setbacks, obstacles, losses (monetary and otherwise) and calamities. If possible, occupants of a property or house should avoid using these sectors (East and West). Pregnant women, infants and those who are ill or recovering from an illness are especially vulnerable to the negative energies in these sectors.

People born in the year of the Rabbit, Rooster, Rat and Horse are most likely to feel the negative effects of the Tai Sui. They can expect to face stumbling blocks and hindrances this year.

As a precaution against any misfortune that may befall those whose houses face East (E2) and sit West (W2), there should not be any house renovation works undertaken this year such ground breaking, piling, digging, nailing and knocking down walls or structures.

For those whose houses face other directions, the occupants should not undertake renovations works in the East and West sectors.

When the Chinese Solar year commences on 4th February 2011, a new round of annual stars will fly in and affect every household. There are nine of these stars which are numerical representations of the energies, good and bad, affecting the eight sectors of a house including the center. Of the nine stars, number 5 (also known as Wu Wang or Five Yellow) is the most destructive as it brings misfortunes and calamities.

The south sector is afflicted by star 2 that brings health issue or ailments. The solution is to place metal items in the sector.

The north sector is afflicted by star 3 which is associated with arguments, disputes and legal problems. The solution is to place red colored objects or a lamp in this sector.

The center of the house is afflicted by star 7 which is associated with robbery, burglary and theft. It can also cause injury due to physical attack and assault. Avoid using this sector if possible.

The southeast sector is influenced by star 6 which is associated with authority, power and status. You should spend more time in this sector if you seek such aspirations.

The southwest sector is influenced by star 4 which is associated with education and academic achievement. It is also beneficial for romance and fostering harmonious relationship. For better chance of success in your exams, study, academic pursuits or romantic endeavors, you should spend more time in this sector of your house.

The west sector is influenced by star 9 that governs happy events, celebrations, marriages, birth or promotions. The downside is that the west sector is also afflicted by San Sha and Sui Poh. Therefore, it is best not to activate it.

The northeast sector is influenced by star 1. This star brings nobility, recognition and growth.

The northwest is influenced by star 8 which is the most auspicious star as it brings wealth, career success and prosperity.

A person will need to undertake an actual analysis of his or her natal chart in order to unravel what destiny really has in store for him or her, not only for this year but the years ahead.

Important Feng Shui Tips To Bring In More Money

Posted on November 17, 2018 by blogger

Tips 1
Money is something everyone needs and wants. Besides using hard work, here are some feng shui tips to remember to generate more money. The first thing to remember is that there are financial power spots in your office, living room, bedroom and kitchen. These spots are found in the corner of the back left hand side of the room, when facing in from the doorway. Once you know the financial power spots of the office, you have to keep these areas clutter free. This is because clutter always symbolizes stagnant energy. And this clutter in your power spots will only clog your cash flow. On clearing these spots, you shift these power spots to a higher spot.

According to feng shui things that are broken have to be fixed as things that dont work indicate that something is wrong in your life. So look for things like switches that dont work, file drawers that dont repair or clocks that dont give the right time. Either remove these things, or repair them so that they work. In place of these non-working things, place symbols of prosperity in your power spots like bowl of coins or a lucky bamboo plant for more prosperity in life. Even pictures of your dream house or car can be placed here as these are effective money symbols that have some special meaning for you.

Tips 2
Color is an important part of feng shui, and in making more money through feng shui. This is why it is advised to accent all money areas in your house with the colors green and purple. Green is the color for vitality and growth while purple is the color for wealth. One feng shui suggestion for this is to place purple and green grapes in a bowl in the wealth area of the kitchen. These grapes can be real or artificial; however if you use real ones and eat them, make sure you replenish the grapes and that the bowl is always more than half full.

Handling money with care is an important part of feng shui. Many people are of the habit of jamming money in wallets or money dips or to keep them crumpled in the pocket. This is not at all a sign of showing respect to money; instead clear your purse and wallet of its clutter and start saving money in them with care. This is because feng shui says that if you start neglecting money, money slowly starts neglecting you. Make it a point to balance your checkbooks and to pay bills punctually and to store your checkbook in attractive purple, black, blue, red or green covers. Place this cover in the back left corner of your desk, its wealth area or in the wealth area of your office.

Tips 3
Feng shui does not mean only the right placement of things for prosperity, but it also means the development of the right attitude in life. According to feng shui, you can make more wealth once you learn to live generously.
This is because money is a type of energy that has to be made to not only into your life, but also to flow through your life. If you dont have money to share, you can always give your time, appreciation and compassion to others for greater abundance in life.

Remember that little drops make a great ocean. So everyday, you have to spend a few minutes in the evenings, thinking of all the good things in life and thus show your gratitude for being lucky to receive all these things. It is not always getting or having something right that is important; it is learning to focus on the positive side of things in life that is important. The more you learn to notice, appreciate and show gratitude for whatever you receive, the more good things and money, you can expect to come your way. This is because prosperity in life is not always determined by the amount of money you have with yourself. It is also dependant on how you learn to enjoy whatever you have in life.

If you realize how rich you are with so many friends and your family, how fortunate that you can laugh, how fortunate you are to breathe in fresh and free air and realize the richness of your spiritual life; you will pretty soon receive material blessings and prosperity in your life.
