Lesson 1Dao - The Philosophical Foundation of Feng ShuiIn-Depth Analysis

Dao represents the natural laws governing everything in the universe. Though invisible, it exists eternally and forms the philosophical foundation of Feng Shui. Understanding Dao means understanding the world as it truly is.

Understanding the Fundamental Laws Governing All Things

#What is Dao?#The Essence of Mutual Generation and Control#What Does 'Enlightenment' Mean?

From Dao to All Things

How Dao evolves into the world we see

1
Dao

The fundamental laws of the universe

Example: The law that water boils at 100°C

2
Taiji

The starting point of all creation

Example: A seed buried in soil, an embryo in the womb

3
Yin-Yang

Two complementary opposites

Example: Day and night, hot and cold, motion and stillness

4
All Things

The complex and diverse world

Example: Mountains, rivers, people, and all phenomena

🌌
What is Dao?

Dao is simply the underlying pattern of how things work. Whether it's how ants survive, how matter decomposes, or why bricks exist - everything has its Dao. This principle exists eternally, regardless of whether we acknowledge it or not.

For example: Just like water boils at 100°C under standard atmospheric pressure - this law holds true whether you have water nearby or not, whether there's a lot or a little. That's the Dao of water.

🔄
The Essence of Mutual Generation and Control

All things in the world are governed by natural laws, creating relationships of mutual generation and control. Feng Shui and destiny reading are essentially about harmonizing these relationships to achieve balance and flow.

For example: Like a doctor treating illness - it's not about fighting disease, but about restoring the body's natural balance.

💡
What Does 'Enlightenment' Mean?

Enlightenment means understanding that 'the world simply is as it is.' In Buddhism, this is called 'Tathagata' (如来) - seeing things as they truly are, not as we wish them to be.

For example: Once you understand gravity, you know why apples fall down rather than float up. You're seeing the natural law at work.

Core Philosophy
With right heart and right mind, blessings and wisdom both arrive

When studying Feng Shui, your heart must be pure. Once you master Feng Shui abilities, you gain power to influence others' lives. A bad person with knowledge is truly dangerous, so your intentions must be righteous - use your knowledge to benefit people.

Hello everyone, I'm delighted that you're here for my Zhengxin Xuan Kong Feng Shui cultivation course. Before we begin, let me introduce myself briefly. I've loved I Ching studies since childhood and later studied Feng Shui divination under Master Ren Xizhi of the Zhengxin school. After entering business, I specialized in Feng Shui consultation for the public. Through my Feng Shui practice, I've formed many good connections and invested in numerous companies, but I won't elaborate on that here. Today we begin the first lesson of the Zhengxin Xuan Kong Feng Shui cultivation course. When people hear about Feng Shui, many think it's mysterious and incomprehensible - that's because they're outsiders looking in. Now that you've met me and are taking this course, I can't guarantee everything, but I can save you 8-10 years of detours and easily save you thousands in tuition fees. As the saying goes: 'True transmission is one sentence; false transmission is ten thousand books.' Here, I'll teach you starting from the fundamental concept of Dao. After studying this, you'll have a sudden clarity. You won't be like those who browse random things online, getting more confused, not knowing what's right or wrong. I guarantee that won't happen here. Before the main content, I must mention the core philosophy as my master taught me - this is especially important in Feng Shui study, and you must plant it deep in your heart. Especially if you plan to work in the Feng Shui industry, remember these 8 characters well. Because true Feng Shui is a double-edged sword - it can activate wealth and enhance fortune, but it can also harm people invisibly. So your intentions are crucial. Buddha and demon are separated by a single thought. Throughout history, great loyalty and great treachery were also separated by a single thought. As the saying goes: a bad person isn't scary, what's scary is a bad person with knowledge. Once you master Feng Shui layout abilities, you possess this power, so your intentions must be righteous. I'm not just teaching you to memorize a few trigrams and five elements. I want you to hold it in your heart and use it with subtle mastery, to benefit people. Alright, enough rambling. Today's opening lesson covers just one word: Dao. This is something most courses don't teach. First, perhaps they haven't thought about it; second, they think it's too abstract and unnecessary. But I tell you, if you want to deeply study I Ching, destiny reading, BaZi, or Feng Shui - you cannot avoid the concept of Dao. So what is Dao? Here I quote Zhuangzi: 'Formless and intangible, it can be obtained but not seen.' Put simply, it's the laws of the universe. Everything in the universe, whether celestial bodies or human affairs, cannot escape this Dao. You can't see it, but it exists in every corner of our lives. There's a little story: Dongguozi asked Zhuangzi, 'Where is Dao?' Zhuangzi said, 'Dao is in ants. Dao is in excrement. Dao is in bricks and tiles.' This left Dongguozi stunned - what on earth is this? But after my explanation above, you should easily understand - whether it's ants having their survival principles, excrement having its decomposition principles, or bricks having their existence principles - these principles are Dao. All things in the universe are born according to Dao and move according to Dao. Dao doesn't disappear because you don't exist, nor does it increase because you do exist. It is eternal. This part is a bit mind-bending. Think about it. For example, under standard atmospheric pressure, water heated to 100 degrees becomes water vapor. This principle stands regardless of whether you have water around you, whether there's much or little water. Doesn't this affect the validity of this principle? This is the Dao of water. Actually, everything in the world has its Dao. This Dao governs our universe and every aspect of our lives. It existed before we did. So when we talk about enlightenment, what exactly are we trying to understand? It's to comprehend that 'the world is as it is.' That's why Buddhism calls it 'Tathagata' - this is the principle. And this Dao is what will generate Taiji in the future. How to understand this? Everything in the world, when it first appears, comes according to its own laws and is influenced by these laws. From the simplest understanding, Dao is the law of development for all things. All things in the world follow such laws to form this vast universe, and everything in this world is constrained by these laws and promoted by them, forming relationships of mutual generation and control. This relationship is what we study in I Ching and what we study in Feng Shui. From this we understand that whether reading destiny or Feng Shui, it's about harmonizing the constraining relationships between different things. As long as you smooth out these constraining relationships and clarify mutual generation and control, you'll understand the principle of Dao. This is our opening. First, we lay a foundation in your thinking, then on this foundation, we can build a solid skyscraper. In the next lesson, we'll start learning the two most fundamental laws born from Dao: Yin-Yang and the Five Elements. Alright, today's opening isn't long - contemplate it well.

Primordial Eight Trigrams (Fu Xi Bagua)

The Eight Trigrams arranged according to natural law

Trigram 1
Qian
Heaven
Nature: Pure Yang
Family: Father
Body: Head、Heart
Personality: Yang strength, active, leadership
💡 Qian - three connected lines
Trigram 2
Dui
Lake/Marsh
Nature: Yin above, Yang below
Family: Youngest Daughter
Body: Mouth、Tongue、Throat、Lungs
Personality: Joyful, soft, fluid
💡 Dui - opening above (upper line broken)
Trigram 3
Li
Fire
Nature: Yang outside, Yin inside
Family: Middle Daughter
Body: Heart、Eyes
Personality: Passionate, lively, fiery
💡 Li - hollow center (middle line broken)
Like a flame: outer flame is hotter (Yang), inner flame is cooler (Yin)
Trigram 4
Zhen
Thunder
Nature: Yang below, Yin above
Family: Eldest Son
Body: Liver、Kidneys
Personality: Impulsive, quick-tempered, energetic
💡 Zhen - upturned bowl (solid at bottom)
Thunder strikes from heaven to earth: ground is solid (Yang), thunder sound is intangible (Yin)
Trigram 5
Xun
Wind
Nature: Yin below, Yang above
Family: Eldest Daughter
Body: Bones、Nerves、Hair
Personality: Penetrating, soft, compliant, highly adaptable
💡 Xun - broken below (lower line broken)
Wind penetrates everywhere: upper Yang lines are solid, lower Yin line is like a gap
Trigram 6
Kan
Water
Nature: Yin outside, Yang inside
Family: Middle Son
Body: Blood、Bladder、Kidneys、Urinary system
Personality: Flowing, cunning, changeable
💡 Kan - full center (middle line solid)
Shape resembles the oracle bone script for 'water'
Trigram 7
Gen
Mountain
Nature: Yang above, Yin below
Family: Youngest Son
Body: Nose、Back、Fingers、Joints
Personality: Steady, grounded, honest
💡 Gen - overturned bowl (solid at top)
Represents stopping and obstruction, like a mountain blocking the path
Trigram 8
Kun
Earth
Nature: Pure Yin
Family: Mother
Body: Spleen and Stomach、Abdomen
Personality: Gentle, embracing, nourishing
💡 Kun - six broken lines
⚖️
Rarity Determines Value

Among the three lines, whichever appears less frequently is what defines the trigram. For example, in Dui, there are two Yang lines and one Yin line. The rare Yin line defines it, making it a Yin trigram representing femininity.

Example: Dui's Yin line is at the top (third position), so it represents the third daughter (youngest daughter) in the family

⬆️
Read from Bottom to Top

Just as Taiji generates Two Forms from bottom to top, trigrams are also read from bottom to top: First line (initial line) → Second line → Third line (upper line)

Example: Zhen: The bottom line is Yang, with two Yin lines above. Since Yang is rare, it represents masculinity, and being at the bottom, it represents the eldest son

🔗
Solitary Yang Cannot Grow, Solitary Yin Cannot Generate

All things in the world are born from the interplay of Yin and Yang. Pure Yang or pure Yin cannot exist independently. Feng Shui adjustment is essentially about balancing Yin and Yang.

Example: Piercing Hall Wind (straight energy flow as Yang) → Add a screen (curved energy flow as Yin) → Achieve Yin-Yang balance

Practical Application

When analyzing Feng Shui, each direction corresponds to a trigram. If that trigram's energy field is affected, it will influence the corresponding family member and body parts.

Example: If the Zhen trigram direction has problems → May affect the eldest son in the family → May harm liver and kidneys

Memory Rhyme
Qian three connected, Kun six broken; Li hollow center, Kan full center; Zhen upturned bowl, Gen overturned bowl; Dui opening above, Xun broken below

These 8 trigrams are like your classmates - you don't need to force memorization. See them every day and you'll remember naturally! What's important is understanding their symbolic meanings.

Hello everyone, today we continue with the second lesson of our Xuan Kong Feng Shui cultivation course - Yin-Yang and the Eight Trigrams. Before studying this lesson, let's review the previous lesson. Last time we mainly taught you what Dao is. Of course, we didn't discuss it deeply - the goal was to give you enough understanding to work with. Simply put, Dao is the pattern of all things in the universe. It exists above matter and consciousness, obtainable but invisible, yet it governs all things in the world. So today, let's continue with 'Dao begets One, One begets Two.' What exactly is this 'One' that Dao begets? It's Taiji. What is Taiji? Generally, people say Taiji is the state before heaven and earth opened, when chaos was undivided. But we shouldn't understand this state narrowly as just that moment before the universe opened. If we understand it that way, it's too limited. More precisely, Taiji is the beginning of all things in their embryonic state. For example, a child in the mother's womb is Taiji. A seed buried in the ground, just starting to have the intention to sprout - that's Taiji. Any moment when something begins to emerge can be called Taiji. This Taiji is produced by the action of Dao. Take the seed as an example - if it were an iron ball, it wouldn't sprout at all. But when a seed is planted and has certain environmental conditions, it begins to sprout - this is the way of heaven. This is Dao begetting One, producing this point of Taiji. All things in the world are born from this point of Taiji. Similarly, a seed sprouting to become a towering tree follows this principle. A tiny seed works this way, and the development of all things in the universe follows the same principle. Buddha said, 'One grain of sand, one world; one flower, one enlightenment.' This is the principle. This world is holographic - students must grasp this rule in your learning. Actually, the process of Dao begetting One is creating something from nothing. 'Nothing' is both Dao and Taiji. You can also understand it as Wuji generating Taiji. When we reach Taiji - when the seed begins to sprout - the growth stage begins. We arrive at 'One begets Two,' also called Taiji generating Two Forms. Laozi's Dao De Jing says, 'All things carry Yin on their backs and embrace Yang, blending their energies to achieve harmony' - this describes this stage. Taiji receives heaven and earth's energy and produces Yin and Yang. Yin and Yang are the initial factors in the formation of all things. Through continuous interaction and combination of Yin and Yang, all things in the world are born. You can see that Yin-Yang is the foundation of development patterns in all things. There's a saying in Feng Shui: 'Solitary Yang cannot grow, solitary Yin cannot generate' - this is the principle. Adjusting Feng Shui is adjusting Yin-Yang balance. For example, if a home has piercing hall wind where energy flows straight without curves, we set up a screen or entrance partition to make the energy curve and return. Here, straight is Yang, curved is Yin. Isn't this adjusting Yin-Yang balance? After the Yin-Yang issue is resolved, next is Two Forms beget Four Images - this is even easier to understand. Two Forms are Yin and Yang, and different combinations of Yin and Yang create Four Images. These Four Images are called Greater Yang, Lesser Yin, Lesser Yang, and Greater Yin. Some call them Old Yang, Lesser Yin, Lesser Yang, and Old Yin. Either is fine - no matter what you call them, as long as you understand the principle, you could even call them kittens and puppies. After Four Images are complete, extending further gives us Four Images beget Eight Trigrams. Greater Yang plus one Yin or Yang respectively produces Qian and Dui trigrams. Lesser Yin plus one Yin or Yang respectively produces Li and Zhen trigrams. Lesser Yang plus one Yin or Yang respectively produces Xun and Kan trigrams. Greater Yin plus one Yin or Yang respectively produces Gen and Kun trigrams. Now our Eight Trigrams are complete. This is the origin of these 8 trigrams. They can represent all things in the world. This is our ancestors' brilliance - abstracting worldly affairs into these few forms. From this you can see that worldly affairs are just the interplay of Yin and Yang. So thoroughly understanding Yin-Yang is the key to learning I Ching and Feng Shui. That's why some people call us Feng Shui masters 'Yin-Yang masters' - this is the principle. For these 8 trigram symbols, they have an arrangement order following the sequence of Taiji generating Two Forms, Two Forms generating Four Images. That is: Qian 1, Dui 2, Li 3, Zhen 4, Xun 5, Kan 6, Gen 7, Kun 8. This sequence is the Primordial Eight Trigrams order, also called Fu Xi Bagua. We draw them in this diagram. Then following this order, you can see our Taiji diagram emerges. This is our Primordial Eight Trigrams. In the next lesson, we'll teach you the Manifest Eight Trigrams. Note that students must remember the names of these 8 trigrams. The ancients used a few rhymes to remember them. I'll recite them for you: 'Qian three connected, Kun six broken, Li hollow center, Kan full center, Zhen upturned bowl, Gen overturned bowl, Dui opening above, Xun broken below.' Qian three connected means three lines, each line complete without breaks. Kun six broken means three lines all broken in the middle, making six segments. Li hollow center - you see the top and bottom aren't broken, but the middle line is broken, so it's called Li hollow center. Kan full center means Kan's top and bottom are broken, but the middle is solid, so it's called Kan full center. Zhen upturned bowl - you see Zhen's bottom line is solid, the upper two lines are broken in the middle, like an upturned bowl. Gen overturned bowl means a bowl turned upside down - from the shape you can see it. Dui opening above - needless to say, everyone understands - the bottom two lines are solid, just the top has an opening, so it's called Dui opening above. Xun broken below means Xun's upper two lines are solid, the bottom one is empty, called Xun broken below. This is very visual. Everyone must remember - as for whether you memorize the rhyme, it doesn't matter. You'll see these trigrams every day in the future. Even without deliberate memorization, you'll remember them, just like when you were in school - you didn't specifically write your classmates' names in a notebook to memorize them. You just saw them every day in class and remembered. Think of these 8 trigrams as your classmates. Now that we've talked about your classmates' names - these 8 trigrams - let's talk about what these 8 classmates represent. First, let's talk about classmate Qian. Looking at Qian, from top to bottom, all are Yang lines. Right, here we need to add a knowledge point - the concept of 'yao' (line). All the horizontal lines or two short horizontal lines above are called yao. One horizontal represents Yang, which we call Yang line. Two short horizontals represent Yin, which we call Yin line. Okay, let's continue with classmate Qian. Qian has Yang lines from bottom to top - it's the most Yang. It can represent heaven in our daily life. In a country, who's the most powerful person? The emperor, right? In the family, it represents the father, the household head. In the human body, it represents the most important organs, like the head, heart, etc. In personality, it shows Yang strength and active characteristics. Easy to remember, right? Now let's introduce classmate Kun. First look at what Kun looks like - all three are Yin lines, indicating it's extremely Yin. It represents the earth. In the family, it represents the mother. In ancient countries, it represented the empress - that's why in the Forbidden City there's a palace called Kunning Palace, taking this symbolism. The empress lived there. Where did the emperor live? Qianqing Palace, right? This is the principle. In the body, Kun represents the spleen, stomach, and abdomen, because this area is like the earth, providing nourishment to the whole body. Food must be transformed through the spleen and stomach into energy needed by the whole body. This is the principle. In personality, it shows gentle, compliant, passive, and embracing characteristics. Isn't this very easy to understand? When you understand the root of the issue, you don't need to memorize by rote. After Kun trigram, let's introduce Dui trigram. Dui represents marsh/lake - what's that? Swampy land, water puddles, damp environments. Look at Dui's trigram symbol - the top is a Yin line, the bottom two are Yang lines. This means it has some Yin energy, but the Yin isn't very pure, like water puddles or swamps - water on top, but more mud than water. This thing's characteristics are soft and fluid. If it represents a person, it's a young girl, the youngest daughter in the family. Here's a small knowledge point you need to know: in trigrams, rarity determines value. What does this mean? For example, if among three lines there are two Yang lines and one Yin line, then you look at that Yin line. This principle applies to destiny reading in the future too. Then about the order of reading trigrams - do you remember the order when Taiji generated Two Forms and Two Forms generated Four Images? From bottom to top, right? We read trigrams from bottom to top too: the first is the initial line, the second is the second line, the third is the third line or upper line - both names work. Look at Dui trigram - three lines, two are Yang, one is Yin. Rarity determines value, so this trigram is a Yin trigram. If it represents a person, it definitely represents femininity. Dui's upper third line is Yin, so naturally it represents the third daughter in the family, or the youngest daughter. It's that simple. When you understand the principle, it's easy to remember. Okay, so what can Dui trigram represent in our human body? It represents the mouth, throat, esophagus, throat, teeth, and lungs. Looking at this, Dui represents parts related to breathing, speaking, and eating. How to understand this? Easy to understand. Because the character 'Dui' in ancient times was the same as the character 'Yue' (joy/delight). Eating, drinking, and smoking are things humans find delightful, so organs related to eating, drinking, and smoking are all related to the mouth. I'm giving you a vivid example - this way it's easier to remember, right? In the future when analyzing Feng Shui, when you see places that conflict with Dui trigram, you'll know which organs of family members will be affected. Understand? Of course, each trigram is also related to directions - that's next lesson's study. Follow the teacher's rhythm, step by step, and you'll learn easily. After Dui, let's talk about Li. Li hollow center, right? It represents fire. Now you often hear about 'Nine Purple Li Fire period' - this is that Li. Representing fire, so it's called Li Fire. Why does it represent fire? Remember when the chemistry teacher in elementary school brought an alcohol lamp to heat flasks? The teacher would say the alcohol lamp has an outer flame and inner flame, and we should heat with the outer flame. Why? Because the inner flame's temperature is far lower than the outer flame. Right, flames are all like this - cooler inside, hotter outside. Look at our Li trigram symbol - aren't the top and bottom Yang lines, with a Yin line in the middle? This is the image of fire. Since Li represents fire, students think about it - what personality should it correspond to? Isn't it fiery, passionate, and lively personality? Sichuan spicy girls' personality. In the body, it also represents the heart - there's a saying 'fiery heart,' this is the meaning. Some students ask, Teacher, doesn't Qian also represent the heart? What's the difference? Note that Li is the primary trigram for the heart, Qian is not. Understand? It's like being an official - Li is the official primarily responsible for the heart, while Qian works part-time on the heart. Get it? Looking at Li trigram, what does it represent in family members? Based on the logic from Dui, I think students should be able to deduce, right? It represents the middle daughter or second daughter, right? Li has one Yin line and two Yang lines, indicating it's a Yin trigram representing femininity, and that Yin line is on the second line, so it's the second daughter. That simple. After Li, let's introduce the next classmate - Zhen. Zhen represents thunder. As the name suggests, from the character 'Zhen' you feel different - 'ear-splitting thunder.' What's ear-splitting? Thunder! Look at its trigram symbol - two Yin lines above, one Yang line below. Yang lines are solid, Yin lines are empty. Generally thunder strikes from top to bottom, and thunder itself is intangible, so it's empty. The ground is solid, taking this image gives us Zhen. Based on Zhen trigram, let's deduce its personality characteristics - isn't it impulsive, fully energized, also representing hot-tempered? That's it. In the body, it represents the liver and kidneys. Why? When people get angry and hot-tempered as thunder, Chinese medicine says 'anger greatly harms the liver, fear harms the kidneys' - this is the principle. What family member does it represent? Based on the rules I mentioned above, it represents the eldest son in the family. Students analyze it yourselves - I won't repeat. After Zhen, let's talk about Xun. Xun represents wind. Wind's movement penetrates everywhere. Look at the trigram symbol - two Yang lines above, just one Yin line below - through this small gap it can come and go freely. This is wind's characteristic. What personality does it show? Students reason it out - isn't it penetrating, soft, compliant personality, also indicating high adaptability? And Xun in family members represents the eldest daughter. I won't reason through this again. Students work it out yourselves. You must try to reason it yourself - it helps memory. So what body parts does Xun represent? It represents bones, meaning thighs, nervous system, hair - these all take the image of movement. For example, there's a disease in the nervous system called 'stroke' - it's actually a nervous system disease, this is Xun's image. Next let's introduce Kan trigram. Kan is water. Its trigram symbol is identical to the oracle bone script for 'water' in ancient times. Water's characteristics are flowing and soft. Kan has another characteristic - danger and险 (险 means danger/险). Manifested in personality, it's cunning. In family members, it's the middle son, the second son. In body organs, it represents blood, bladder, kidneys, urinary-reproductive system, etc. All related to water. The last classmate is Gen trigram. Gen represents mountain. This trigram takes the image of stopping. Mountain - as the name suggests - blocks you here, stops you. Two Yin lines going up become one solid Yang line - stop! That's the meaning. What personality characteristics does it represent? Isn't it firm, stable? Mountain - steady and solid. If a person has Gen personality, they're steady, grounded, honest and sincere, right? In family members, it represents the youngest son. In body organs, it represents nose, back, breasts, tumors, stones, etc. Aren't these all taking mountain's image? I Ching is about learning the skill of taking images from all things. Remember, in I Ching, in Feng Shui, there's a saying: 'In heaven it forms images, on earth it forms shapes.' Everything is connected. Where earth energy arrives, there are dragon veins. This is a pattern, this is Dao. Understanding these basic theoretical knowledge, whether you study destiny reading or Feng Shui in the future, you'll handle it with ease. Alright, today's lesson mainly covered Yin-Yang and the Primordial Eight Trigrams, and the myriad correspondences of the Eight Trigrams. This correspondence part is just a portion - more content we'll gradually enrich in future lessons. Don't worry, follow the teacher's rhythm. After this course, you'll surpass 90% of Feng Shui masters on the market. That's how confident I am. Okay, today's lesson ends here. Next lesson we'll cover the Manifest Eight Trigrams. Don't worry, slowly we'll pull you all onto the path. After listening to this lesson, you must remember the names of each trigram in the Eight Trigrams, how to draw them, their sequence, and their myriad correspondences. Best to take a notebook and copy them several times from memory. Alright, today's lesson ends here. See you next lesson. With right heart and right mind, blessings and wisdom both arrive.

Lesson 3Manifest Eight Trigrams and Five Elements - Foundation for ApplicationIn-Depth Analysis

The Primordial Bagua teaches 'essence' (principles), while the Manifest Bagua teaches 'application' (practice). The Manifest Bagua combines the eight trigrams with directions and time, while the Five Elements describe the generation and control relationships among all things.

⚠️ Balance Principle

Everything requires moderation; excess is as bad as deficiency

Too much Water floats Wood
Too much water, too little wood
Example: Planting a sapling in the ocean - it won't grow, it will drown
Generation isn't always good; energies must be matched
Too much Fire dries Water
Fire too strong, water too weak
Example: Using a bucket of water to fight a forest fire - futile
Control may not succeed; energies must be matched

The Essence of I Ching and Feng Shui

I Ching and Feng Shui are disciplines that unify time and space.

The Manifest Bagua has directions (space) and Manifest numbers (which can be converted to time), allowing analysis of specific events in specific spacetime.

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Remember this in your bones!

🔍
Taking Images from All Things

The core skill of I Ching is 'taking images' - seeing things and associating them with corresponding Five Elements and Bagua attributes.

📍
In Heaven Forms Images, On Earth Forms Shapes

Stellar energy in the heavens maps to mountains and rivers on earth (dragon veins). This is the manifestation of Dao, the pattern.

Where earth energy arrives, there are dragon veins. This is the law, this is Dao.

Practical Application Examples
Scenario: Northwest Qian position damaged
Qian trigram → Father, male head of household
Qian trigram → Head, heart
Qian is Metal → Lungs
Manifest number is 6
May affect the male head of household, especially head, heart, and respiratory system
Scenario: East Zhen position suppressed
Zhen trigram → Eldest son
Zhen is Wood → Liver
Wood being controlled → Metal controls Wood (sharp metal objects)
May affect eldest son, prone to liver problems or irritable temperament

Now that we've covered Yin-Yang, Bagua, and Five Elements, the next lesson will introduce Heavenly Stems and Earthly Branches - the tools for applying theory to specific time periods.

📄 View Full Content
Welcome everyone to continue learning the Xuan Kong Feng Shui cultivation course. Today we'll study the third lesson - the Manifest Eight Trigrams and Five Elements. Before learning the Manifest Bagua, let's review the Primordial Bagua from last lesson. We already discussed its formation method. So the question is: why do we call it the Primordial Bagua? We must start from I Ching's fundamental philosophical methodology. I Ching teaches Yin-Yang dialectics - all things are born from the mutual generation and transformation of Yin and Yang. So in Bagua, we have the theoretical foundation: Taiji generates Two Forms, Two Forms generate Four Images, Four Images generate Eight Trigrams. Under this theoretical foundation, the 8 trigram symbols from last lesson were derived: Qian 1, Dui 2, Li 3, Zhen 4, Xun 5, Kan 6, Gen 7, Kun 8. The first four trigrams are generated from the Yang line of the Two Forms. The last four are generated from the Yin line. This is the Primordial Bagua sequence, derived according to natural Yin-Yang laws. It's said to have been invented by Fu Xi. This isn't important to us. We just need to understand these 8 trigrams and master their Yin-Yang attributes. The Primordial Bagua tells us the original laws of heaven and earth's changes. But to use them for BaZi and Feng Shui analysis, we need to apply them to our practical lives. Our living environment exists in three-dimensional space and the dimension of time - we live in specific spacetime. So how do the great Dao laws revealed by Primordial Bagua guide our lives? Put simply, how do we use these trigrams for Feng Shui and destiny reading? This requires transforming Primordial Bagua into Manifest Bagua, also called King Wen's Bagua. Legend has it King Wen of Zhou, based on Primordial Bagua symbols and observing astronomy, geography, and human affairs in practical life, summarized the Manifest Bagua system that can guide specific things in our lives. Primordial and Manifest Bagua have an essence-application relationship. Speaking of essence-application, many students don't quite understand. Let me give a simple example of what essence-application means. For instance, a glass cup - the glass itself is essence, the cup is application. A piece of glass sitting there can't hold water until it's made into a cup, realizing the glass's function - that's application. Without glass, there's no cup to speak of. Here glass is the cup's essence. Some students might say, couldn't I make a cup from paper instead of glass? For a paper cup, paper is essence, cup is application. Something without essence isn't a thing; something with only application can't become a thing. This is a bit convoluted - contemplate it yourself. If interested, read the Diamond Sutra later and you'll have sudden clarity. Okay, back to Bagua after discussing essence-application. What exactly is King Wen's Manifest Bagua like? Please look at the diagram. Careful friends might notice the positions of the eight trigrams in this diagram differ from Primordial Bagua. Yes, this is Manifest Bagua. In Primordial Bagua, the eight trigrams have their representations. In Manifest Bagua, they connect with our specific directions and will also connect with time. With directions and time, these trigrams can function - like when teachers taught essay writing: narrative's three elements are time, place, and people. These trigrams have time and place represented. People are the focus - when reading your BaZi, you're the person; when reading your Feng Shui, you're the person. This way, the Bagua position corresponding to a specific place and time all emerge. Of course, I'm speaking quite generally and macroscopically now, but you must remember this methodology is very important. I'll summarize in one sentence: I Ching and Feng Shui are disciplines that unify time and space. The saying goes: true transmission is one sentence, false transmission is ten thousand books. You must remember the above sentence, remember it in your bones. This will greatly help your future Feng Shui study. This is also the essence of how our ancestors viewed the universe. If you don't understand now, that's fine. Follow my rhythm and study for a while, then come back to contemplate this sentence - you'll have an epiphany. Okay, what exactly are the specific directions of Manifest Bagua? Look at the diagram where I've marked specific directions. Manifest Bagua's directional arrangement differs from Primordial Bagua. In this diagram, straight down is North, straight up is South - opposite from how we usually look at maps. This relates to our traditional culture. In tradition, North is honored. Emperors sat facing south. Houses generally faced south, toward the sun. So we look at this diagram facing south, facing the sun's direction. Naturally North is below, South above. Good, after distinguishing North-South, corresponding East is on the left, West on the right. After determining the four cardinal directions, we look at corresponding trigrams. Northernmost is Kan trigram. China's North has white mountains and black waters, so it represents water. Its Manifest number is 1 - remember this direction and number, very important. Whenever Kan is mentioned, think North. Kan corresponds to water's nature. Everything water-related can be represented by Kan. In family, Kan represents the middle son. We covered this in Primordial Bagua last lesson. This lesson let's review. I Ching emphasizes rarity determines value. Looking at Kan trigram - one Yang line in the middle, one Yin line above and below. That middle line represents this trigram's family member. Yang represents male. Counting from bottom up, it's the second position, so it's the middle son. In the body, Kan represents blood, ears, kidneys, bladder, urinary system, etc. Southernmost is Li trigram. South is close to the sun, so it represents fire. Its Manifest number is 9, representing fire's bright image. In family it represents middle daughter - refer to Kan's memory method for specifics. In body it represents heart, eyes, small intestine, upper burner. Northwest is Qian trigram. Look at our country's highest terrain in the Northwest - Kunlun dragon vein birthplace. Its Manifest number is 6, representing heaven and nobility. In family it represents father. In body it represents head and heart. Southwest is Kun trigram. Southwest land of abundance, nourishing image. Its Manifest number is 2, representing earth's assistance. In family it represents mother. In body it represents spleen, stomach, abdomen, etc. West is Dui trigram. Its Manifest number is 7, representing marsh, joy, and opening. In family it represents youngest daughter. In body it represents mouth, teeth, tongue, throat, etc. East is Zhen trigram. Its Manifest number is 3, representing thunder. In family it represents eldest son. In body it represents liver, kidneys, etc. Southeast is Xun trigram. Its Manifest number is 4, representing wind. In family it represents eldest daughter. In body it represents nerves, trachea, gallbladder meridian. Northeast is Gen trigram. Its Manifest number is 8, representing mountain. In family it represents youngest son. In body it represents nose, back, finger joints, bones. We've reviewed last lesson's content. What you need to remember this lesson is Manifest Bagua's directions and numbers. Of course, these 8 trigrams represent far more than this, but these are most fundamental - you must remember them, take good notes, digest them. Only then will future lessons feel easy and interesting. These are essential knowledge for future Feng Shui practice. After discussing Manifest Bagua, let's talk about Five Elements. Speaking of Five Elements, I'm sure you're familiar - whether in daily life or TV shows, you often hear Metal, Wood, Water, Fire, Earth. Right, these characters. But what exactly did our ancestors mean by these characters? What role do they play in I Ching? What are their relationships? This lesson we'll discuss in detail. First, these characters: Metal, Wood, Water, Fire, Earth. In our traditional thinking, our ancestors represented all things in the universe with these five characters - similar to Buddhism's Four Elements: earth, water, fire, wind. 'The four elements are all empty' means the four elements composing the world are empty, illusory - this is Buddhism's realm. I digress. Let's continue with Five Elements. Actually, Five Elements also describe the universe's compositional elements. From the most fundamental perspective, there are these five: Metal, Wood, Water, Fire, Earth. Calling them elements doesn't mean they're necessarily material substances - they can also encompass consciousness. You must carefully contemplate this sentence. If you don't quite understand, I'll explain below. First understand from the elemental level. Metal is metal, in nature representing convergence. Wood is plants, in nature representing straightness. Water is liquid, in nature representing moistening. Fire is fire, in nature representing dispersion. Earth is soil and stone, in nature representing transformation. From this perspective, Metal doesn't just mean metal itself - all things in the world with metal's properties can be represented by Metal. Same for the other four. The ancients used these five elements to summarize all things in the world. Everything in daily life has its Five Elements correspondence. Below I'll list some common correspondences you need to remember. Metal's substance is metal. Five colors: white. Five organs: lungs. Five sounds: Shang. Five grains: rice. Five directions: West. Bagua: Dui and Qian. Wood's substance is plants. Five colors: green. Five organs: liver. Five sounds: Jue. Five grains: sorghum. Five directions: East. Bagua: Zhen and Xun. Water's substance is liquid. Five colors: black. Five organs: kidneys. Five sounds: Yu. Five grains: beans. Five directions: North. Bagua: Kan. Fire's substance is flame. Five colors: red. Five organs: heart. Five sounds: Zhi. Five grains: wheat. Five directions: South. Bagua: Li. Earth's substance is soil and stone. Five colors: yellow. Five organs: spleen and stomach. Five sounds: Gong. Five grains: millet. Five directions: Center. Bagua: Kun and Gen. You should memorize these correspondences very skillfully - they'll be frequently used in Feng Shui and BaZi. Memorize to the point of instant recall without thinking. Just mentioned Five Elements not only indicate world-composing elements but also encompass consciousness. Fluidity is Water, grounding is Earth, steadfastness is Wood, resilience is Metal, rashness is Fire. So Five Elements encompass the universe's material and consciousness flows. After understanding Five Elements' five states, let's examine relationships between these five states. In daily life we often hear 'soldiers block with generals, water blocked with earth.' This phrase shows water and earth's relationship - earth can block water. In Five Elements we call this relationship Control, meaning Earth controls Water. Besides Control there's Generation. For example, Fire generates Earth. Burning anything creates char and ash. Fire and Earth have a generation relationship. What about the generation-control relationships of the other elements? Let's look at the diagram. From the outer circle we see generation relationships: Metal generates Water, Water generates Wood, Wood generates Fire, Fire generates Earth, Earth generates Metal. How to understand? Let me give vivid explanations. Metal heated becomes liquid - Metal generates Water. Water irrigates trees to grow - Water generates Wood. Wood burns to create fire - Wood generates Fire. Fire finishes burning, becomes ash - Fire generates Earth. Earth contains minerals - Earth generates Metal. This understanding is superficial, but aims to help you remember - very vivid and easy to remember. Then looking at the middle star-like pattern showing control relationships, starting from Metal: Metal controls Wood, Wood controls Earth, Earth controls Water, Water controls Fire, Fire controls Metal. How to understand? Again vivid explanations. Metal controls Wood - iron axe chops wood. Wood controls Earth - trees break through soil. Earth controls Water - dams block water. Water controls Fire - water extinguishes fire. Fire controls Metal - fire smelts metal. Same purpose - helping you memorize control relationships, deepening memory. This way it's easy to remember. From the above sequence we can directly say: Metal, Water, Wood, Fire, Earth. Following this order is generation. Skipping one is control. After discussing generation-control, note that all things require balance - especially in Feng Shui. You need to understand this point. For example, Water generates Wood - if too much water, too little wood, doesn't that fail? Like planting a small sapling in a vast ocean - can it grow well? Definitely not. This is called 'too much water floats wood.' Everything requires moderation. For example, if a person's BaZi has 7 characters belonging to Water and 1 to Wood - this is too much water floating wood, also bad. It drowns, how can it grow? Similarly, another situation: Water controls Fire. Suppose a forest fire starts - you take a bucket of water to put it out, can you? Isn't that a joke? This is called 'too much fire dries water.' Makes sense, right? Other Five Elements follow the same principle. So in Five Elements generation-control-transformation, there are appropriate and inappropriate situations. Generation-control requires matched energies to be comparable. If energy difference is too great, comprehensive consideration needed. After generation-control relationships, Five Elements have some internal relationships we must master. These are very important for future Feng Shui practice - foundational. So I'm emphasizing - you must be alert and remember them. These relationships are summarized in five characters: Wang-Xiang-Xiu-Qiu-Si. Some students say what's this? Just remember it. Don't worry, I'll slowly explain. For any one of the Five Elements, it has relationships with the other four partners. For example, Metal. When Metal is Wang (dominant), meeting Water is Xiang relationship, meeting Wood is Si relationship, meeting Fire is Qiu relationship, meeting Earth is Xiu relationship. The other elements follow the same logic. I'll make a table. Wood Wang: Fire Xiang, Water Xiu, Metal Qiu, Earth Si. Fire Wang: Earth Xiang, Wood Xiu, Water Qiu, Metal Si. Metal Wang: Water Xiang, Earth Xiu, Fire Qiu, Wood Si. Water Wang: Wood Xiang, Metal Xiu, Earth Qiu, Fire Si. Earth Wang: Metal Xiang, Fire Xiu, Wood Qiu, Water Si. Seeing this, some students get confused - this is too complex. How to remember? Next I'll use a simple method to help you remember Five Elements' internal Wang-Xiang-Xiu-Qiu-Si relationships. Let's use Metal again, making it easy to remember. Metal Wang means Metal is in position, in power and timely - equivalent to Metal being emperor. What happens to the other elements? Look based on generation-control relationships. First, Metal generates Water. So Water has good days, can be prime minister. So when Metal Wang, Water is minister - Water Xiang. What about Earth? Earth generates Metal. Metal is already very strong, doesn't need Earth's generation, so Earth rests - Earth Xiu. Look at Fire. Fire controls Metal. Metal is emperor now, you want to control me? No way. I'll imprison you - Fire Qiu. Finally look at Wood. Metal controls Wood. Metal is emperor now, can Wood have a good end? Execute directly - Wood Si. This is Metal Wang: Water Xiang, Earth Xiu, Fire Qiu, Wood Si. Is this memory method easy? Students can organize the other elements following this logic. In the four seasons there are also Five Elements correspondences. According to traditional solar terms, from Beginning of Spring to Winter Solstice we experience four seasons: Spring, Summer, Autumn, Winter. Each season has three months - Early, Mid, and Late month. We call seasons based on the Late month as the node dividing the year into four seasons. In Five Elements: Spring is Wood, Summer is Fire, Autumn is Metal, Winter is Water. Each season's last month is Earth - specifically the last 18 days are Earth. The Yellow Emperor's Inner Classic mentions the year divides into four seasons, with 18 days of Earth between each two-season transition. We learned above that Earth governs spleen-stomach processing. We can understand in the four seasons that each season's end is the base of Five Elements transformation, while Earth acts as lubricant for transition. This explanation helps memory. More on seasons: Spring is Wood - spring brings revival, plants growing, so Wood. Summer is Fire - summer is hot, things flourishing, blazing activity image, so Fire. Autumn has solemn energy, metal's contracting image, so Metal - hence the phrase 'golden autumn October.' Winter conceals everything inside, taking water's downward cold meaning. All frozen things use ice radical, meaning very cold - this is Water's image. Digression: all characters with four-dot water - heat, steam, cook, blazing - think about it, aren't they all hot? Three-dot water? Rivers, lakes, seas - showing fewer dots means colder. I've gone off-topic. This section mainly helps you remember Five Elements' attributes in the four seasons. Remember now, when studying Earthly Branches later, it all connects. Okay, today's Five Elements knowledge is conveyed - you must remember it by heart to use it skillfully in the future. These are I Ching theory's foundations. Only with solid foundation can you build a taller structure. We've finished Yin-Yang, Bagua, and Five Elements. Next we'll start explaining Heavenly Stems and Earthly Branches concepts. Following the teacher's rhythm, you'll avoid many detours. The saying goes: knowing the how and why, drawing inferences from one instance, integrating everything - these are the essence of scholarship. Keep going. With right heart and right mind, blessings and wisdom both arrive.

Lesson 4Earthly Branches - The Code of Space and TimeIn-Depth Analysis

The 12 Earthly Branches are not merely time markers - they are a sophisticated system encoding time, space, seasons, and directions into a unified framework. Understanding them unlocks the door to BaZi and Feng Shui mastery.

Twelve Earthly Branches: Wisdom Unifying Time and Space

📌 Memory Formula: Start from ring finger base, arrange clockwise

🌍
Space-Time Unified

Each Earthly Branch represents both a time period AND a spatial direction simultaneously.

When you say 'Zi', you mean both 11PM-1AM AND North. This dual nature makes branches the perfect tool for Feng Shui (space) and BaZi (time) integration.

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ This is THE fundamental insight for mastery!

🔄
Hidden Stems Reveal Complexity

Each branch contains hidden Heavenly Stems within it, like treasures in a vault.

For example: Like a person with complex personality - the surface doesn't tell the whole story.

For example, Chou appears to be simple Earth, but contains Ji (Earth) 60%, Gui (Water) 30%, and Xin (Metal) 10%. These hidden stems explain why branches behave more complexly than their surface element suggests.

Relationship Hierarchy Matters

Not all relationships are equal. San Hui > San He > Liu He in strength. Liu Chong > Xing > Hai in danger.

When analyzing a chart, strongest relationships dominate. A San Hui formation overpowers nearby Liu He pairs.

🎯
Vaults Are Special Earth Branches

Chen, Wei, Xu, Chou are called 'vaults' - they store and release elemental energies.

Chen is Water vault, Wei is Wood vault, Xu is Fire vault, Chou is Metal vault. They hold energy until 'unlocked' by specific conditions.

Critical for understanding wealth timing in BaZi and energy activation in Feng Shui.

Using Branch Relationships in Real Life
Essential Content to Master

Use the palm formula daily! Practice finding any branch relationship on your palm until it becomes second nature. This traditional method works because it engages muscle memory.

Must Remember:
All 12 branches with their animals, times, months, seasons, and directions - must be instant recall!
Four San Hui groups: Yin-Mao-Chen (Wood), Si-Wu-Wei (Fire), Shen-You-Xu (Metal), Hai-Zi-Chou (Water)
Four San He trines: Shen-Zi-Chen (Water), Hai-Mao-Wei (Wood), Yin-Wu-Xu (Fire), Si-You-Chou (Metal)
Six Liu He pairs: Zi-Chou, Yin-Hai, Mao-Xu, Chen-You, Si-Shen, Wu-Wei
Six Liu Chong clashes: Zi-Wu, Chou-Wei, Yin-Shen, Mao-You, Chen-Xu, Si-Hai

Welcome to lesson four of the Xuan Kong Feng Shui course. Today we'll study Earthly Branch relationships - the code of space and time. Previously we covered Yin-Yang, Eight Trigrams, and Five Elements - the theoretical foundation. From today, we'll learn to apply these theories to real situations. First tool: the Twelve Earthly Branches. What are they? Zi, Chou, Yin, Mao, Chen, Si, Wu, Wei, Shen, You, Xu, Hai - these twelve characters. You'll find them everywhere: in the old calendar, the zodiac system, time-telling. But do you truly understand what they represent? Why did our ancestors use precisely these twelve to mark time and space? Today I'll explain thoroughly, because mastering the Earthly Branches is essential for both BaZi Four Pillars and Feng Shui practice. Listen carefully - this is crucial foundational knowledge. First, understand that each Earthly Branch represents multiple layers of meaning simultaneously. It's not just one thing. Each branch contains: a time period, a month, a season, a direction, a Five Elements attribute, a Yin-Yang property, an animal symbol, and hidden stems inside it. This multi-layered encoding is the brilliance of our ancestral wisdom. Let's examine each branch in detail. Zi: The Rat. Time is 11PM to 1AM - midnight, the deepest part of night. But interestingly, this is when Yang energy is born. The I Ching says 'when Yin reaches its peak, Yang is born.' So Zi, though in darkest night, contains the seed of Yang. It's Yang Water. Direction is North - pure North. Month is the 11th lunar month, mid-winter. Season-wise, it's the heart of winter. The ancient saying 'winter solstice, one Yang returns' refers to Zi time. Hidden stem is 100% Gui Water - pure Water essence. Remember: whenever you see Zi, think midnight, North, winter, Yang Water, Rat, new beginnings in darkness. Chou: The Ox. Time 1-3AM. Month is 12th lunar month, late winter. Season is winter's end - the cold earth before spring. Direction is North-Northeast, transitioning from pure North toward East. Element is Earth - cold, wet earth. It's Yin Earth. Hidden stems are Ji Earth 60%, Gui Water 30%, Xin Metal 10%. Notice: Chou is called the 'Metal vault' because it stores Metal energy. The ox works the fields, representing steady labor and hidden potential. Yin: The Tiger. Time 3-5AM, just before dawn. Month is the 1st lunar month - spring begins! Direction is East-Northeast. Element is Wood - Yang Wood specifically. Tiger bursting with vitality. Hidden stems: Jia Wood 60%, Bing Fire 30%, Wu Earth 10%. Yin marks spring's beginning. The saying 'spring begins when tiger roars' - Yin is where Yang Wood starts rising, everything awakening. Energy surging upward. Mao: The Rabbit. Time 5-7AM, sunrise. Month is 2nd lunar month, mid-spring. Direction is pure East. Element is Wood, but Yin Wood - gentler than Tiger. Hidden stem is 100% Yi Wood - pure Wood essence. Spring equinox occurs in Mao month. Flowers blooming, everything in growth. Rabbit represents peace, fertility, gentleness. Mao is Wood at its peak fullness. Chen: The Dragon. Time 7-9AM. Month is 3rd lunar month, late spring. Direction East-Southeast. Element is Earth - but wet, moist Earth, Yang Earth. Hidden stems: Wu Earth 60%, Yi Wood 30%, Gui Water 10%. Chen is the 'Water vault' - it stores Water. Dragon brings rain, representing transformation and power. Spring ending, moving toward summer. Chen marks seasonal transition. Si: The Snake. Time 9-11AM. Month is 4th lunar month, early summer. Direction South-Southeast. Element is Fire - Yin Fire specifically. Hidden stems: Bing Fire 60%, Wu Earth 30%, Geng Metal 10%. Snake is wise, mysterious, transformative. Fire awakening but still hidden, like snake coiled before striking. Si is where summer's heat begins building. Wu: The Horse. Time 11AM-1PM, noon, peak of day. Month is 5th lunar month, mid-summer. Direction pure South. Element Fire, Yang Fire - maximum Yang! Hidden stems: Ding Fire 70%, Ji Earth 30%. Summer solstice in Wu month - longest day, shortest night. Horse galloping, unstoppable energy. Wu represents peak Yang, maximum activity, fame, brightness. When you think Wu, think blazing noon sun. Wei: The Goat. Time 1-3PM. Month 6th lunar month, late summer. Direction South-Southwest. Element Earth - dry Earth, Yin Earth. Hidden stems: Ji Earth 60%, Ding Fire 30%, Yi Wood 10%. Wei is 'Wood vault' - stores Wood energy. Goat represents peace, nurturing, gradual decline from Yang peak. Summer ending, evening approaching. Shen: The Monkey. Time 3-5PM. Month 7th lunar month, early autumn. Direction West-Southwest. Element Metal - Yang Metal. Hidden stems: Geng Metal 60%, Ren Water 30%, Wu Earth 10%. Autumn begins in Shen. The saying 'when metal appears, wood retreats' - harvest time begins. Monkey is clever, active, transitional. Yang declining, metal gathering inward. You: The Rooster. Time 5-7PM, sunset. Month 8th lunar month, mid-autumn. Direction pure West. Element Metal - Yin Metal. Hidden stem 100% Xin Metal - pure Metal essence. Autumn equinox in You month. Rooster crows mark time precisely. You is Metal at peak refinement - like polished sword. Harvest complete, fruits gathered. Xu: The Dog. Time 7-9PM. Month 9th lunar month, late autumn. Direction West-Northwest. Element Earth - dry Earth, Yang Earth. Hidden stems: Wu Earth 60%, Xin Metal 30%, Ding Fire 10%. Xu is 'Fire vault' - stores Fire energy. Dog guards the home loyally. Autumn ending, day ending, energy descending into rest. Hai: The Pig. Time 9-11PM. Month 10th lunar month, early winter. Direction North-Northwest. Element Water - Yin Water. Hidden stems: Ren Water 70%, Jia Wood 30%. Hai marks winter's beginning. Pig represents rest, gestation, abundance stored for winter. Yin Water flowing, concealing, gestating next year's Yang in darkness. The cycle completes and begins again. Now you see - these twelve branches encode time, space, seasons, directions, elements all together! This is why I said at the start: I Ching and Feng Shui unify time and space. The branches are the practical tool making this possible. When doing BaZi, you're analyzing time configurations. When doing Feng Shui, you're analyzing spatial arrangements. Both use the same twelve-branch framework! But understanding individual branches isn't enough. You must understand their relationships - how they interact, combine, clash, harm each other. This is where things get powerful and complex. The relationships I'll teach you are used constantly in real practice. First type: San Hui, meaning 'three gatherings.' Every three consecutive branches can unite to form a powerful elemental bureau. Look at spring: Yin, Mao, Chen - three consecutive branches. Together they form a Wood bureau of maximum strength. Three months of spring united! Similarly summer: Si, Wu, Wei form Fire bureau. Autumn: Shen, You, Xu form Metal bureau. Winter: Hai, Zi, Chou form Water bureau. San Hui is the strongest formation possible - three directions gathering into pure elemental force. It's rare in charts but extremely powerful when present. Like three rivers merging into unstoppable flood. Second type: San He, meaning 'three harmonies' or trines. These are three non-adjacent branches forming triangular harmony. Four trines exist: Shen-Zi-Chen forms Water bureau. Hai-Mao-Wei forms Wood bureau. Yin-Wu-Xu forms Fire bureau. Si-You-Chou forms Metal bureau. Notice the pattern: each trine has birth position, peak position, and vault position. For example, Shen-Zi-Chen water trine: Metal (Shen) generates Water, Zi is pure Water peak, Chen is Water vault storing it. Complete cycle! San He is very strong, second only to San Hui. When you find a trine in a BaZi chart, that element dominates the person's characteristics. In Feng Shui, completing a trine formation in your environment powerfully activates that element's energy. Third type: Liu He, meaning 'six harmonies.' These are six pairs of branches that harmonize beautifully: Zi combines with Chou to form Earth. Yin combines with Hai to form Wood. Mao combines with Xu to form Fire. Chen combines with You to form Metal. Si combines with Shen to form Water. Wu combines with Wei represents Sun-Moon harmony. Liu He pairs are gentler than trines but still very auspicious. They represent cooperation, marriage compatibility, helpful relationships. In life, meeting your Liu He branch often brings helpful people and opportunities. Fourth type, and this is important: Liu Chong, meaning 'six clashes.' These are six pairs of directly opposite branches that conflict severely: Zi clashes Wu - North vs South, Water vs Fire. Chou clashes Wei - Northeast vs Southwest, cold Earth vs dry Earth. Yin clashes Shen - Northeast vs Southwest, Wood vs Metal (Metal chops Wood!). Mao clashes You - East vs West, Wood vs Metal. Chen clashes Xu - Southeast vs Northwest, wet Earth vs dry Earth. Si clashes Hai - Southeast vs Northwest, Fire vs Water. Clashes are serious! They represent opposition, conflict, upheaval, sudden changes. In BaZi, clash years often bring major life changes - job changes, moves, relationship breakups. In Feng Shui, if your house direction clashes with your personal year branch, expect turbulence. However, clashes aren't always bad - sometimes you need disruption to break through stagnation. But generally, avoid important decisions during clash periods. Fifth type: Xing, meaning 'punishment.' These are more complex and subtle than clashes but create persistent difficulties. Three main punishment patterns: Power punishment: Yin, Si, Shen - these three punish each other in a triangle. Represents power struggles, authority conflicts. Ungrateful punishment: Zi punishes Mao - represents rudeness, lack of propriety. Self-punishment: Chen-Chen, Wu-Wu, You-You, Hai-Hai - same branch meeting itself can create internal conflict and self-sabotage. Punishments are troublesome, creating ongoing friction rather than explosive clashes. In charts with punishments, people face repeated obstacles, personality conflicts, or self-defeating patterns. Sixth type: Hai, meaning 'harm' or 'destruction.' Six pairs exist: Zi harms Wei, Chou harms Wu, Yin harms Si, Mao harms Chen, Shen harms Hai, You harms Xu. Harms are subtle undermining energies - like small people causing trouble behind your back, or hidden obstacles preventing success. Less dramatic than clashes but persistently troublesome. In practice, I pay most attention to He (harmonies) and Chong (clashes), then Xing (punishments). Harms are noted but less critical unless very prominent. Now, how to memorize all this? Seems overwhelming, right? Here's a traditional method: the palm formula. Look at your left palm. Index finger has three segments: base is Yin, middle is Mao, tip is Chen. Middle finger: base Si, middle Wu, tip Wei. Ring finger: base Shen, middle You, tip Xu. Little finger: base Hai, middle Zi, tip Chou. Now you have all twelve branches on your palm! To find relationships: For clashes, look at opposite positions - if Zi is on little finger tip, Wu is directly opposite on middle finger middle. Six positions apart always clash. For harmonies, neighboring fingers often harmonize. For trines, every four positions form triangle. Practice this palm method until it's second nature. Old masters could calculate complex relationships just by moving their fingers! Very practical - you don't need paper or phone, just your hand. Before ending, I must emphasize: memorize these twelve branches completely. Not just knowing, but instant recall. Someone says 'Chen' - immediately you should think: 7-9AM, 3rd month, late spring, East-Southeast, Yang Earth, Water vault, Dragon, wet earth. This speed comes from practice. Test yourself daily. Why such emphasis? Because from next lesson onward, when we combine Heavenly Stems with Earthly Branches to form the 60 Jia Zi cycle, the complexity increases exponentially. If your branch knowledge isn't solid, you'll be completely lost. Everything in BaZi and Feng Shui builds on this foundation. Also practice identifying relationships quickly. Given two branches, instantly know: do they clash? Harmonize? Form trine? Punish? Harm? This skill is like a martial artist's reflexes - must be automatic, not calculated. In actual consultations, you don't have time to slowly figure things out. The ability to see relationships instantly is what separates beginners from professionals. Today's lesson is heavy - twelve branches with all their attributes, plus six types of relationships. Don't feel pressured to master everything immediately. Study gradually, review repeatedly. Make flashcards, draw diagrams, use the palm method. Most importantly, start noticing branches in daily life. Check the calendar - what branch is today? What's this year's branch? Your birth year branch? Your birth month branch? When you start seeing branches everywhere and thinking about their relationships naturally, you'll know you're getting it. Next lesson we'll study Heavenly Stems. Then we'll combine Stems and Branches to form the complete Jia Zi system. Everything connects - just follow along patiently. Foundation built solidly now makes everything easier later. Keep going, stay focused!

Lesson 5Heavenly Stems - Code of the HeavensIn-Depth Analysis

Heavenly Stems represent celestial phenomena and star positions. Combined with Earthly Branches, they express time; alone, they represent spatial directions and Five Elements energy. In Heaven forms images, on Earth forms shapes - Stems and Branches together create complete spacetime.

Heaven-Earth-Human Trinity

Heavenly Stems are Heaven, Earthly Branches are Earth, Humans exist between them. Stems alone cannot express time - they must combine with Branches (like Jia-Zi year). This embodies the Heaven-Earth-Human unity philosophy.

For example: Like writing essays requiring time, place, and person - all three elements essential

🌟
Why Called 'Heavenly Stems'?

Heavenly Stems represent celestial phenomena and star positions - they are images in Heaven. 'In Heaven forms images, on Earth forms shapes' - so Stems paired with Branches can guide all human affairs.

Stems without Branches are abstract; Branches without Stems lack celestial guidance

⚖️
Yin-Yang Memory Method

Same as Earthly Branches - use emphasis method: Jia-Yi, Bing-Ding, Wu-Ji, Geng-Xin, Ren-Gui. First heavy (Yang), second light (Yin).

🎯
Cardinal Before Intercardinal Principle

When determining directions, cardinal direction trigrams (N/S/E/W) take priority over intercardinal (NE/SE/SW/NW). So Jia-Yi correspond to Zhen trigram (East), not Xun.

🔍
Thought Question Answer

The primary Qi of hidden stems matches the branch's own Five Elements! Example: Zi is Water, its hidden stem Gui is also Water; Yin is Wood, its primary hidden stem Jia is also Wood.

Practical Significance

Heavenly Stems combined with Earthly Branches express complete spacetime information. For example, in BaZi reading, you must examine the Stems and Branches of year, month, day, and hour - all 8 characters - to comprehensively analyze a person's destiny.

Essential Content to Master

Heavenly Stems are much simpler than Earthly Branches - mainly memorize Five Elements and directions. Relationships can all be derived from basic principles.

Must Remember:
Stem sequence: Jia, Yi, Bing, Ding, Wu, Ji, Geng, Xin, Ren, Gui
Five Elements: Jia-Yi Wood, Bing-Ding Fire, Wu-Ji Earth, Geng-Xin Metal, Ren-Gui Water
Yin-Yang: Odd numbers Yang, even numbers Yin (or use emphasis method)
Directions: East Jia-Yi Wood, South Bing-Ding Fire, West Geng-Xin Metal, North Ren-Gui Water, Center Wu-Ji Earth
Harmonies: Jia-Ji, Yi-Geng, Bing-Xin, Ding-Ren, Wu-Gui
Hidden Stems formula (must memorize completely!)

Hello everyone, today is lesson five of our Xuan Kong Feng Shui cultivation course. Today we're discussing Heavenly Stems. Before starting, as usual, let's review last lesson's content. Last lesson we studied the 12 Earthly Branches: Zi, Chou, Yin, Mao, Chen, Si, Wu, Wei, Shen, You, Xu, Hai. And their Five Elements attributes: Zi is Water, Chou is Earth, Yin is Wood, Mao is Wood, Chen is Earth, Si is Fire, Wu is Fire, Wei is Earth, Shen is Metal, You is Metal, Xu is Earth, Hai is Water. These are the Five Elements. Next their Yin-Yang - how to remember? Students still remember? Through the emphasis method: Zi-Chou, Yin-Mao, Chen-Si, Wu-Wei, Shen-You, Xu-Hai. First character emphasized, second light. Emphasis is Yang, light is Yin. Finally we detailed the relationships between the 12 Earthly Branches. Their relationships include San Hui (three gatherings), San He (three harmonies), Liu He (six harmonies), Xing (punishment), Liu Chong (six clashes), and Hai (harm). Everyone needs to know these relationships. Sometimes if you can't remember, that's okay - didn't I introduce the palm formula last lesson? At the end of last lesson I had everyone practice calculating these relationships on their palms. Let's see the connections between them on the palm positions. Take Liu He as example: Zi combines with Chou, Yin combines with Hai, Mao combines with Xu, Chen combines with You, Si combines with Shen, Wu combines with Wei. Looking at our palm joints, aren't the positions that face each other horizontally the combining branches? I won't detail the others - students practice on your own palms. Good. After reviewing Earthly Branches, today let's study Heavenly Stems. Speaking of Heavenly Stems, everyone should be familiar: Jia, Yi, Bing, Ding, Wu, Ji, Geng, Xin, Ren, Gui. Right, these 10 characters. In our traditional understanding, they are the symbol system ancient China used for year, month, day, and hour notation. Actually we've had this thread throughout - everyone remember? I Ching is a discipline that unifies time and space. So when we see these 10 characters representing time, our minds should immediately realize they must also have a place in space. Right, having this thought means you're on track. So let's start with time. In terms of time, they need to pair with Earthly Branches to form specific time concepts. Here some students ask: Teacher, why can't Heavenly Stems represent time independently? This is an excellent question. Because in ancient times, Heavenly Stems represented celestial star positions. The specific origins have many explanations - we won't get tangled up in that. But one point is our I Ching philosophy: in Heaven forms images, on Earth forms shapes. All things emphasize Heaven-Human unity. So from this starting point, our worldly affairs all have a relationship with celestial images. Therefore when expressing time, we always pair Heavenly Stems with Earthly Branches - like Jia-Zi year, Bing-Yin month, etc. These two characters represent Heaven and Earth at that time experiencing an event - that's the Human. The Heaven-Earth-Human trinity is indispensable. With Heaven and Earth but no Human, time and space have no meaning to people, right? After discussing time, let's not rush to space - first look at the sequence and Yin-Yang Five Elements attributes of the 10 Heavenly Stems. Their sequence is like Earthly Branches, arranged in the order we recite them: 1-2-3-4-5-6-7-8-9-10 corresponding to Jia, Yi, Bing, Ding, Wu, Ji, Geng, Xin, Ren, Gui. Their corresponding Yin-Yang also follows numerology rules: even numbers Yin, odd numbers Yang. So: Jia is Yang, Yi is Yin, Bing is Yang, Ding is Yin, Wu is Yang, Ji is Yin, Geng is Yang, Xin is Yin, Ren is Yang, Gui is Yin. Memory method same as Earthly Branches - emphasis method. I won't elaborate here - students experience it yourselves. After Yin-Yang, let's look at Five Elements. In Five Elements, the 10 Heavenly Stems are perfectly divided into 5 groups of 2, one group per element: Jia-Yi Wood, Bing-Ding Fire, Wu-Ji Earth, Geng-Xin Metal, Ren-Gui Water. Very easy to remember. After discussing their Five Elements attributes, let's see how to deduce their spatial directions. The thought process here is the same as last lesson's Earthly Branch spatial directions - look at Five Elements attributes. Five Elements Wood belongs to Zhen trigram in Manifest Bagua. Why Zhen trigram? Students who don't know can review our earlier Five Elements lessons. So I say students, our course is like stringing pearls - individual scattered knowledge points will all be strung together for you, giving you a systematic knowledge framework. Good, continue. Zhen trigram in Manifest Bagua is the East. So Jia and Yi's positions are determined - they're Eastern. We call this Eastern Jia-Yi Wood. Then look at Bing and Ding. Bing-Ding are Fire. Li trigram's Five Elements are Fire. Li trigram in Manifest Bagua is South. So correspondingly it's Southern Bing-Ding Fire. Next look at Geng-Xin. Geng and Xin are Metal. Metal corresponds to Dui and Qian trigrams. Here we need to note - there's a principle of cardinal before intercardinal. That is, cardinal direction trigrams take priority over intercardinal direction trigrams. Here we take Dui trigram. Dui is in the West, so it's Western Geng-Xin Metal. Look at Ren-Gui - Water. Kan trigram is Water, in the North. So it's Northern Ren-Gui Water. Finally look at Wu-Ji. Wu-Ji are Earth. In trigrams, both Kun and Gen are Earth, but these two trigrams aren't cardinal direction trigrams. So our Wu-Ji direction falls in the middle - the central position. This is Central Wu-Ji Earth. This way we've arranged all 10 Heavenly Stems directionally. Next let's look at relationships between Heavenly Stems. We know Earthly Branches have punishment-clash-harmony-harm relationships. Heavenly Stems also have relationships, divided into generation-control and clash. First, let's look at Heavenly Stem mutual generation relationships. Actually it's just Five Elements mutual generation: Jia-Yi Wood generates Bing-Ding Fire, Bing-Ding Fire generates Wu-Ji Earth, Wu-Ji Earth generates Geng-Xin Metal, Geng-Xin Metal generates Ren-Gui Water, Ren-Gui Water generates Jia-Yi Wood. Very simple, no need to memorize. Just understand the corresponding Five Elements and you can derive it. Similarly, mutual control relationships also follow Five Elements mutual control principles: Jia-Yi Wood controls Wu-Ji Earth, Wu-Ji Earth controls Ren-Gui Water, Ren-Gui Water controls Bing-Ding Fire, Bing-Ding Fire controls Geng-Xin Metal, Geng-Xin Metal controls Jia-Yi Wood. Again, no need to memorize - all derivable. Next is mutual harmony relationships: Jia-Ji harmonize, Yi-Geng harmonize, Bing-Xin harmonize, Ding-Ren harmonize, Wu-Gui harmonize. Actually this relationship is also easy to remember. Divide the ten into two groups: Jia-Yi-Bing-Ding-Wu, then Ji-Geng-Xin-Ren-Gui. Match them in pairs - that's the harmony relationship. Their specific harmony formulas are: Jia-Ji combine to Earth, Yi-Geng combine to Metal, Bing-Xin combine to Water, Ding-Ren combine to Wood, Wu-Gui combine to Earth. The last relationship is mutual clash: Jia-Geng clash, Yi-Xin clash, Bing-Ren clash, Ding-Gui clash. Clash only has these four types, no Wu-Ji clash. Because clash is viewed from direction - opposite direction clash. Wu and Ji are in the center, so there's no opposite clash issue. Heavenly Stem relationships are much simpler than Earthly Branches. After discussing Heavenly Stems themselves, next I'll explain hidden stems in Earthly Branches. This concept is extremely important whether in Feng Shui or BaZi numerology. Hidden stems in Earthly Branches - as the name suggests, each Earthly Branch will hide one or several Heavenly Stems within it. What's the principle? Still that phrase above: in Heaven forms images, on Earth forms shapes. So Earthly Branches hide Heavenly Stems, but Heavenly Stems don't contain Earthly Branches. Different Earthly Branches hide different Heavenly Stems - this is called hidden stems in Earthly Branches. What exactly do hidden stems in Earthly Branches hide of the Heavenly Stems? Everyone must understand clearly - they hide the Heavenly Stems' energy, the Qi. This Qi, according to different Earthly Branches, hides different Heavenly Stems. For different Earthly Branch hidden stems there's a specific formula chant. It goes like this: Zi holds single Gui Water, Chou holds Ji-Gui-Xin; Yin holds Jia-Bing-Wu, Mao holds Yi Wood stored. Chen hides Wu-Yi-Gui, Si hides Bing-Wu-Geng; Wu hides Ding-Ji Earth, Wei has Ji-Ding-Yi midst. Shen contains Geng-Ren-Wu, You holds Xin Metal sole; Xu stores Wu-Xin-Ding, Hai conceals Ren-Jia hold. From this formula we see Zi's hidden stem is Gui - just one Heavenly Stem. So this Gui provides 100% energy to Zi - this Gui is called Zi's primary Qi. In hidden stems there are divisions of primary Qi, middle Qi, and residual Qi. Some call primary Qi the main Qi. If an Earthly Branch hides one Heavenly Stem, it only has primary Qi, this energy is 100%. If it hides two Heavenly Stems, then there's primary Qi and middle Qi, their energy distribution is 70% and 30%. If it hides three Heavenly Stems, then there's primary Qi, middle Qi, and residual Qi, their energy distribution is 70%, 20%, and 10%. Just mentioned Zi's hidden stem is Gui Water. Because it only hides one Heavenly Stem, it only has primary Qi, so it's 100%. Look at Chou again. Chou holds Ji-Gui-Xin - meaning Chou has three hidden stems: Ji, Gui, and Xin. So Ji is Chou's primary Qi at 70%, Gui is Chou's middle Qi at 20%, Xin is Chou's residual Qi at 10%. That's the distribution principle. So Yin's hidden stems are Jia-Bing-Wu. Similarly, Jia is primary Qi at 70%, Bing is middle Qi at 20%, Wu is residual Qi at 10%. Look at Mao. Mao's hidden stem is only Yi, so Yi is Mao's primary Qi at 100%. The other Earthly Branch hidden stems follow the same principle - I won't detail each one here. Good, today's lesson is relatively simple. It mainly introduced Heavenly Stems' Yin-Yang and Five Elements, relationships between Heavenly Stems, and the concept of hidden stems in Earthly Branches. Finally I'll leave a thought question: what relationship exists between hidden stems' primary Qi and the Earthly Branch itself? Everyone engage your wise minds. Good, next lesson we'll formally enter Feng Shui-specific theoretical lessons. The above few lessons are Feng Shui theory lessons, also the theoretical foundation for BaZi numerology and I Ching studies. After everyone has Yin-Yang and Five Elements concepts, we'll begin formally entering Feng Shui's theoretical section. Next lesson we'll discuss the Twenty-Four Mountains. If students have seriously studied previous lessons, when we discuss Twenty-Four Mountains, you'll very easily understand their arrangement sequence. Good, that's all for today. See you next lesson.

Lesson 6Twenty-Four Mountains - The Feng Shui Compass SystemIn-Depth Analysis

The Twenty-Four Mountains (二十四山) are the foundation of Feng Shui practice. This system precisely divides the entire horizontal plane into 24 directional sectors of 15 degrees each. It serves as the core measurement tool for identifying the positions of landforms and environmental features, and represents the most crucial component of the Feng Shui compass (Luo Pan).

• Prolonged phone scrolling depletes mental energy (Shen), causing dull eyes and mental emptiness
🧭
The Compass Is the Feng Shui Master's Eyes

The Twenty-Four Mountains system is the heart of the Luo Pan compass. Without this 24-sector directional framework, there would be no way to precisely measure the positions of mountains, water features, and environmental elements - making Feng Shui analysis impossible.

🎯
One Trigram Governs Three Sectors

The system consists of 8 trigrams, with each trigram governing 3 directional sectors, totaling 24 'mountains' (directional markers). Cardinal directions (N/S/E/W) use Heavenly Stems + Earthly Branches, while intercardinal directions (NE/SE/SW/NW) use trigrams + Earthly Branches.

🔢
The Four Cardinal Axis Lines

Zi (North), Wu (South), Mao (East), and You (West) represent the four cardinal directions, also called the 'Four Corrects.' The commonly referenced 'meridian line' (Zi-Wu line) refers to the true North-South axis.

These four directions serve as the primary reference points for all Feng Shui measurements

📚
Synthesis of All Previous Knowledge

The Twenty-Four Mountains integrate all concepts from previous lessons: Eight Trigrams, Heavenly Stems, Earthly Branches, Five Elements, and directional theory. This exemplifies the 'stringing pearls' learning method - connecting individual concepts into a complete system.

For example: Like stringing pearls on a necklace - each knowledge point is a pearl, and together they form a complete, wearable piece

⚖️
Why Intercardinal Directions Don't Use Heavenly Stems

The intercardinal directions (NE, SE, SW, NW) don't include Heavenly Stems because Stems follow the principle of 'taking cardinal, not intercardinal' - they only correspond to the cardinal directions (N, S, E, W) and Center.

Real-World Applications

The Twenty-Four Mountains system is the fundamental measurement tool in Feng Shui practice. When conducting Feng Shui analysis, you use the compass to measure the directions of doors, windows, bed placement, and other features, then determine their auspiciousness based on the Twenty-Four Mountains framework.

Scenario: Measuring Door DirectionMethod: Stand inside facing the door, use compass to determine which 'mountain' (directional sector) the door faces
Example: If the door faces the 'Wu' sector (due South), you know it's a south-facing door with Fire element characteristics
Scenario: Locating Wealth PositionsMethod: Based on the building's facing direction and the Twenty-Four Mountains, combined with Flying Star Feng Shui techniques, determine which directional sector contains the wealth position
💡 This requires knowledge from later lessons in the course
Essential Content to Master

No need to rote memorize! Once you've mastered Heavenly Stems, Earthly Branches, and the Eight Trigrams from previous lessons, you can naturally derive the Twenty-Four Mountains. The key is understanding the arrangement logic, not blind memorization.

Must Remember:
The 24-mountain clockwise sequence (starting from North): Ren-Zi-Gui, Chou-Gen-Yin, Jia-Mao-Yi, Chen-Xun-Si, Bing-Wu-Ding, Wei-Kun-Shen, Geng-You-Xin, Xu-Qian-Hai
The 'One Trigram Governs Three Sectors' principle and structural logic
Cardinal directions: Stems + Branch; Intercardinal directions: Trigram + Branches
Each sector = 15 degrees; each trigram governs 45 degrees total

Lesson 7Xuan Kong Feng Shui Theory - Your Practical GuideIn-Depth Analysis

The fundamental principle of Xuan Kong Feng Shui: 'Mountain Dragons stay on mountains, Water Dragons stay in water.' This saying is your lighthouse for Feng Shui arrangement—master it, and your directional decisions will never go wrong.

The Dragon God Principle: Core Law of Feng Shui Arrangement

Mountain Dragons stay on mountains, Water Dragons stay in water - Your arrangement lighthouse

⚠️ CORE MANTRA ⚠️
Mountain Dragons Stay on Mountains
Water Dragons Stay in Water
This is the spiritual key to Xuan Kong Feng Shui!
🏔️

Mountain Dragon = High Placement

📏What is a "Mountain"?
• One inch higher is Sha (mountain)
• Relatively tall objects
• Examples: tall cabinets, bookshelves, refrigerators, wardrobes
How to Arrange?
Position needing strong Mountain Star → Place tall items
• Place tall cabinets
• Place wealth bowls or other metal Feng Shui objects
• Maintain height, don't lower
💡 Practical Case Study
A certain sector needs enhanced Mountain Star energy, with Water element attribute.
Metal generates Water, so place a tall metal wealth bowl in this position.
This satisfies both the "height" requirement AND the Five Element generation need!
Remember this principle!
• Position with strong Mountain Star → needs HEIGHT (tall items)
• Position with strong Water Star → needs LOW (low items or open space)
NEVER reverse them! Or Feng Shui will be ruined!

  • Pond in front
⚠️ Taboo: Front blocked or obstructed by tall objects

🏔️⚡ Form School + Energy Theory = Complete Feng Shui

Xuan Kong Feng Shui analyzes both Form School and Energy Theory—combining them to turn fortune and avoid misfortune

🏔️

Form School

Visible Forms
📏 Core Concept
One inch higher is Sha (mountain)
One inch lower is Water
• The physical forms of surroundings
🔍 Objects to Observe
• Surrounding mountains, buildings
• Roads, rivers
• Indoor furniture heights
⚖️ Influence Pattern
• Closer = stronger influence
• Larger size = stronger influence
• Farther = weaker influence

Energy Theory

Invisible Energies
🔮 Core Concept
• Five Elements' effects in different directions
• Distribution of energy fields
• Changes in time (cycles)
🎯 Analysis Tools
• Five Element generation/control cycles
• Flying Star Nine Palaces
• Three Periods Nine Cycles
💫 Methods of Action
• Generate: Enhance energy
• Control: Suppress negative energy
• Drain: Dissolve excess energy
💡 Form School + Energy Theory Case Studies
Problem: A sector has Form School affliction
From Form School perspective: Sharp-angled building outside window creating attacking energy
✅ Solution (Form School + Energy Theory):
1️⃣ Form School remedy: Use curtains to block, place plants to obstruct
2️⃣ Energy Theory remedy: Check this sector's Five Element attribute, use generation/control to suppress negative energy
Example: If the afflicted sector is Wood element, use Metal to control Wood (place metal objects)
🎯Arrangement: Activating wealth position
1️⃣ Energy Theory: First use Flying Star Nine Palaces to locate wealth position
2️⃣ Form School: Arrange according to Mountain-Water principle
• If wealth position is Mountain Star → Place tall items (cabinets, wealth bowls)
• If wealth position is Water Star → Keep low and open (aquarium, open space)
🌟
The Completeness of Xuan Kong Feng Shui
• Form School alone without Energy Theory = Incomplete
• Energy Theory alone without Form School = Armchair theorizing
Form School + Energy Theory combined = Complete Xuan Kong Feng Shui!
🏔️
Mountain Dragons Stay on Mountains, Water Dragons Stay in Water

This is the most fundamental principle in Xuan Kong Feng Shui. 'Mountain' represents tall objects; 'Water' represents low objects. Energy that needs to be stable should be placed high (mountain position). Energy that needs to flow should be placed low (water position).

For example: Like basketball strategy: tall players guard the paint (mountain position), shorter players work the perimeter (water position). Each plays their role, and the team wins.

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ This is your arrangement lighthouse—your overall direction won't go wrong!

📏
One Inch Higher Is Sha, One Inch Lower Is Shui

In interior design, relatively tall objects (cabinets, bookshelves) are Sha (mountains). Relatively low objects (nightstands, coffee tables) are Shui (water). This is the fundamental concept of Form School Feng Shui.

🧭
Sitting and Facing Directions Determine Feng Shui Pattern

A building's sitting and facing directions are critically important in Feng Shui. Measured with a compass from the air intake point (main door). Different orientations create completely different auspicious/inauspicious qualities for each interior sector.

🐉
Four Mythical Beasts Positions

Left is Azure Dragon, Right is White Tiger, Front is Vermilion Bird, Back is Black Tortoise. This is the macro-level directional concept in Feng Shui.

⚖️
Form School + Energy Theory = Complete Feng Shui

Form School (形峦) studies visible objects: mountains, buildings, furniture. Energy Theory (理气) studies invisible energies: Five Elements, directions, time cycles. Combining both gives you comprehensive analysis.

📍
The Influence Law of Sha and Shui

How much Form School features affect you depends on: ① Distance (closer = stronger influence) ② Size (larger = stronger influence) ③ Nature (auspicious vs inauspicious)

🎯
The Compass Is the Feng Shui Master's Eyes

Without a compass, a modern Feng Shui practitioner is like someone without eyes. Measuring orientations and determining directions—all require the compass.

🏡
Air Intake Point Determines Orientation

Measure orientation from the air intake point (main door) because the main door is the primary channel for energy circulation, determining the entire dwelling's energy distribution.

🔄
Form School Influence Is Objectively Real

Surrounding mountains, buildings, and objects all affect Feng Shui. The closer they are and the larger their size, the more obvious their influence.

Real-World Applications

This lesson establishes the macro framework for Xuan Kong Feng Shui. Later when you study Flying Star techniques, you'll apply the 'Mountain Dragons stay on mountains, Water Dragons stay in water' principle for arranging spaces.

Scenario: A Sector Needs Wealth Enhancement (Water Energy)
'Water Dragons stay in water' → place items low
Can use aquarium, water features, or items with flow/movement
Place on floor or low surfaces, not atop high cabinets
Low placement for water aligns with 'Water Dragons stay in water' principle
Scenario: A Sector Needs Stability (Mountain Energy)
'Mountain Dragons stay on mountains' → place items high
Can use tall furniture, bookshelves, cabinets
Or place tall Feng Shui objects (like wealth bowls) at height

🔄
The Three-Element Dragon's Independent Yin-Yang System

The Three-Element Dragon has its own independent yin-yang classification, DIFFERENT from the inherent yin-yang of Heavenly Stems and Earthly Branches! This yin-yang system determines whether Flying Stars move clockwise or counterclockwise.

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ This is the KEY to Xuan Kong Flying Stars!

🏔️
Naming of Heaven-Earth-Human Element Dragons

Each trigram governs three mountains. These three mountains are called: Earth Element Dragon (first), Heaven Element Dragon (middle), Human Element Dragon (last).

For example: Earth Dragon = Reverse Child trigram (opposite of parent), Heaven Dragon = Parent trigram, Human Dragon = Forward Child trigram (same as parent)

☯️
Cardinal Direction Trigrams: Yang-Yin-Yin

The four cardinal direction trigrams (N-S-E-W): Earth Dragon is Yang, Heaven Dragon and Human Dragon are Yin.

Intercardinal Direction Trigrams: Yin-Yang-Yang

The four corner trigrams (NE-SE-SW-NW): Earth Dragon is Yin, Heaven Dragon and Human Dragon are Yang. Exactly OPPOSITE of cardinal direction trigrams!

Three Periods Nine Cycles Temporal System

180 years = 1 Complete Cycle, divided into Upper-Middle-Lower three periods. Each period is 60 years, each cycle is 20 years. This is ancient China's method for dividing grand time scales.

Nine Stars Govern the Cycles

The Nine Stars of the Big Dipper (Greedy Wolf, Giant Gate, Stored Wealth, Literary Melody, Pure Virtue, Military Melody, Broken Army, Left Assistant, Right Assistant) correspond to the Eight Trigrams and Nine Palaces. Each star dominates for 20 years, influencing world trends.

🌌
Celestial and Human Affairs Correspondence

Three Periods Nine Cycles originates from the relationship between solar system planetary movements and Earth's natural and human phenomena. Celestial movements cycle repeatedly, never changing.

📚
Essential Three-Element Dragon Formula to Memorize

Heaven Dragons: Qian-Xun-Gen-Kun are Yang, Zi-Wu-Mao-You are Yin; Earth Dragons: Jia-Geng-Bing-Ren are Yang, Chen-Xu-Chou-Wei are Yin; Human Dragons: Yin-Shen-Si-Hai are Yang, Gui-Ding-Yi-Xin are Yin

🔢
Cardinal vs Intercardinal Pattern

Cardinal direction trigrams (N-S-E-W) and intercardinal trigrams (four corners) have OPPOSITE yin-yang distributions. Remember one, and the other is reversed.

🎯
The Function of Three-Element Dragon

The Three-Element Dragon yin-yang system is used to create Xuan Kong Flying Star charts, determining whether stars fly clockwise or counterclockwise. This is the key foundation for later lessons.

Real-World Applications

The Three-Element Dragon yin-yang system will be heavily used in later Xuan Kong Flying Star lessons. Three Periods Nine Cycles is used to judge era trends and choose advantageous industries and directions.

Scenario: Judging Industry Trends
Eight White Gen Earth Cycle (2004-2023) → Gen represents mountain, earth → Real estate, construction materials, infrastructure boomed
Nine Purple Li Fire Cycle (2024-2043) → Li represents fire, beauty → Mobile internet, culture/entertainment, new energy rising
Aligning with the current cycle when choosing industries multiplies effectiveness
Scenario: Creating Flying Star Chart (Future Lesson)Method: Determine building's sitting-facing orientation (e.g., Ren Mountain, Bing Facing),Look up Ren's Three-Element Dragon yin-yang (Ren is Earth Dragon, Kan trigram cardinal direction, so Ren is Yang),Based on yin-yang, determine star flight direction (Yang = clockwise, Yin = counterclockwise),Construct complete Flying Star chart
Three-Element Dragon yin-yang is Step 1 in creating Flying Star charts
Essential Content to Master

The Three-Element Dragon yin-yang requires repeated memorization because it differs from the inherent yin-yang of Stems and Branches—easy to confuse. Suggest making flashcards for daily review.

Must Remember:
Three-Element Dragon yin-yang formula (Heaven/Earth/Human Dragons' respective yin-yang)

💡 Understanding the Three Plates
Earth Plate: Foundation—determines orientation (MOST IMPORTANT)
Human Plate: Analyzes Sha (mountains/tall objects) around site
Heaven Plate: Analyzes water flow (rivers, roads, drainage)
• All three use 24 Mountains, but serve different analytical purposes

Six Steps to Measure Sitting-Facing Direction

Master these steps to accurately determine any building's orientation

🧍
Step 1 of 6

Position Yourself

Stand outside door, facing main entrance, body parallel to door
Detailed Instructions
Stand approximately 1 meter from the door. Your body should be perfectly parallel to the door frame for accurate measurement.
💡 Pro Tip
Ensure you're standing on level ground
📋 Measurement Examples
Example 1
Crosshair near chest shows Gui, opposite shows Ding
→ Result: Ding Mountain, Gui Facing
Example 2
Crosshair near chest shows Qian, opposite shows Xun
→ Result: Xun Mountain, Qian Facing
⚠️ CRITICAL REMINDER
The character NEAR YOUR CHEST is the FACING direction.
The character on the OPPOSITE SIDE is the SITTING MOUNTAIN.
Do NOT confuse them—this is a common beginner mistake!
🧭
The Compass Is the Feng Shui Master's Eyes

A modern Feng Shui practitioner without a compass is like someone without eyes. The compass measures directions and is the most essential tool in Feng Shui.

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Without a compass, Feng Shui practice is impossible!

🏯
Heaven-Round Earth-Square Design

The compass is square outside and round inside, symbolizing ancient cosmology: round heaven, square earth. The outer square is called the base plate (outer plate); the inner disc rotates.

📚
Compass Layers

Compasses have many layers (36 layers), but only a few are commonly used. Each school's compass text varies.

🏔️
Earth Plate Proper Needle - The Core Layer

Layer 8 is the Earth Plate Proper Needle—the Twenty-Four Mountains we studied, used to determine building sitting-facing orientation. This is the most essential, most frequently used layer!

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

⛰️
Human Plate Center Needle - Analyzing Mountains

Layer 12 is the Human Plate Center Needle, also 24 mountains, used to locate Sha (tall objects) around a site and determine whether they support or harm the site.

⭐⭐⭐

💧
Heaven Plate Seam Needle - Analyzing Water

Layer 15 is the Heaven Plate Seam Needle, also 24 mountains, used to measure incoming and outgoing water positions around a building to determine fortune. Water governs wealth, so this is important.

⭐⭐⭐⭐

🔢
120 Division Lines and Empty Voids

Layer 10 has 120 division lines, dividing each of 24 mountains into 5 equal parts, totaling 120 divisions. Some are empty (empty voids)—when setting orientation, cannot use these empty spaces.

28 Constellations

The outermost compass layer shows 28 Constellations, used together with the Human Plate Center Needle for more precise judgment of Sha fortune/misfortune.

⚠️
Compass Maintenance Precautions

The magnetic needle breaks very easily—must protect it carefully!

📐
Must Be Level Before Use

If the compass isn't level, the magnetic needle won't be accurate. Use the spirit level to center the bubble—then the compass is level.

🎯
Magnetic Needle Always Points South

The needle's function is to indicate direction. No matter how you rotate it, the needle always points south (the end shaped like a bull's horn).

6 Steps to Measure Sitting-Facing Direction

Measuring orientation is the compass's most basic and important application. Master these 6 steps to accurately determine a building's sitting-facing direction.

Essential Content to Master

Using the compass requires practice. Suggest buying a compass and measuring various rooms at home multiple times—practice makes perfect!

Must Remember:
Compass structure: Base plate, rotating disc, heaven pool, magnetic needle, crosshair lines, spirit level
Three Plates: Earth Plate Proper Needle (Layer 8, orientation), Human Plate Center Needle (Layer 12, analyzing Sha), Heaven Plate Seam Needle (Layer 15, analyzing water)
6 Steps to measure: Position → Hold compass → Level → Rotate inner disc → Read direction → Determine sitting-facing
Measurement principle: Near chest is Facing, opposite is Sitting
120 Division Lines: 48 usable, avoid empty voids

• Example: Year 2024 → 2+4=6 → 9-6=3 → 3-Green Preservation enters center palace
What Are the Nine Stars?

Big Dipper Seven Stars + Left Assistant Star + Right Assistant Star = Nine Stars. They are: 1-White Greedy Wolf, 2-Black Giant Gate, 3-Green Preservation, 4-Green Literary Song, 5-Yellow Pure Truth, 6-White Military Song, 7-Red Broken Army, 8-White Left Assistant, 9-Purple Right Assistant.

For example: The nine stars correspond to the Later Heaven Eight Trigrams and Nine Palaces, governing cycles and influencing the world

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Must memorize completely!

🔄
One Thought Becomes Buddha, One Thought Becomes Demon

Every star has both positive and negative aspects. When in power (prosperous), it exerts positive effects; when out of power (in decline), it produces negative impacts. Just like each person has both good and evil sides.

🌟
The Current Cycle Star Is Most Important

Period Nine (2024-2043): 9-Purple Right Assistant is prosperous. The previous 8-White Left Assistant still retains energy during the first 10 years of Period Nine. 1-White Greedy Wolf is the future star (star about to prosper).

💰
Three Great Wealth Stars

1-White Greedy Wolf (Water), 6-White Military Song (Metal), and 8-White Left Assistant (Earth) are called the Three Great Wealth Stars. Among them, 8-White Left Assistant is the most auspicious of the nine stars.

☠️
The Two Most Inauspicious Stars

2-Black Giant Gate and 5-Yellow Pure Truth are tied as the most inauspicious stars! When out of power, they represent death, terminal illness, financial ruin, family destruction, and bloodshed disasters.

🔁
Nine Palace Flying Star Path

Fixed route: Center → Qian → Dui → Gen → Li → Kan → Kun → Zhen → Xun → back to Center. Remember this one route—that's all you need!

🧮
Annual Flying Star Calculation Formula

Annual Flying Star = 9 - (sum of last two digits of the year). The calculated number is the star entering the center palace.

📍
Positional Relationship of the Nine Stars

The nine stars' positions are based on the Later Heaven Eight Trigrams: 1-Kan North, 2-Kun Southwest, 3-Zhen East, 4-Xun Southeast, 5-Center Palace, 6-Qian Northwest, 7-Dui West, 8-Gen Northeast, 9-Li South.

🎯
Only Need to Remember One Flying Star Route

Center Palace(5) → Qian(6) → Dui(7) → Gen(8) → Li(9) → Kan(1) → Kun(2) → Zhen(3) → Xun(4) → back to Center. This route is fixed and unchanging!

🔄
Nine Stars Rotation Pattern

Like 9 children lining up to play hopscotch—those in front move forward, those behind follow. Whichever enters the center palace, the other 8 stars arrange themselves in fixed sequence along the route.

📅
Annual Flying Stars Change Each Year

Annual flying stars are used to determine fortune/misfortune in all directions for that year. Each year has a different star entering the center palace, creating a different flying star chart.

Practical Application

Xuan Kong Flying Stars form the foundation for creating Feng Shui charts. In the future, we'll combine sitting-facing direction, cycles, and annual stars to create complete flying star charts, enabling us to determine fortune and misfortune in all areas of a property.

Scenario: Calculate 2025 Annual Flying Star
In 2025, the 2-Black Sickness Symbol enters the center palace—pay special attention to health and disease issues
Scenario: Determine Which Stars Have Energy in Period Nine
9-Purple Right Assistant: Current cycle star, strongest energy
8-White Left Assistant: Previous cycle star, still has energy during first 10 years of Period Nine
1-White Greedy Wolf: Future star, also quite good
2-Black, 3-Green, 4-Green, 5-Yellow, 6-White, 7-Red: Outdated and lifeless stars
Focus primarily on the positions of stars 9, 8, and 1
Essential Content to Memorize

Memorize both the prosperous and declining effects of the nine stars—you'll need them to determine fortune/misfortune. Practice the flying star route repeatedly until you can recite it instantly!

Must Remember:

🏠
What Is a Dwelling Fortune Chart?

A dwelling fortune chart is the property's destiny chart. Based on the property's sitting-facing direction, period cycle, and other actual conditions, you create a unique destiny chart for that specific dwelling. After completing the chart, you can see the fortune and misfortune of each direction.

For example: Just like a person's birth chart, every property has its own destiny chart

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ This is the core of practical Feng Shui!

📊
Three-Layer Structure of Dwelling Fortune Chart

Cycle Star Chart (Heaven Chart/Property Chart) + Mountain Star Chart (upper left) + Facing Star Chart (upper right) = Complete Dwelling Fortune Chart

1️⃣
Step One: Create Cycle Star Chart

Current cycle star enters center palace, forward flight. Use Chinese numerals.

2️⃣
Step Two: Create Mountain Star Chart

Find the cycle star corresponding to the sitting mountain, enter center palace. Determine forward/reverse flight based on Three-Element Dragon yin-yang. Mark with Arabic numerals in upper left.

3️⃣
Step Three: Create Facing Star Chart

Find the cycle star corresponding to the facing direction, enter center palace. Determine forward/reverse flight based on Three-Element Dragon yin-yang. Mark with Arabic numerals in upper right.

🔑
Three-Element Dragon Formula Is the Key

Earth Element Dragon matches Earth Element Dragon, Heaven Element Dragon matches Heaven Element Dragon, Human Element Dragon matches Human Element Dragon. Use this formula to determine forward/reverse flight for mountain and facing stars.

⚖️
Yang Forward, Yin Reverse

After determining the yin-yang of the Three-Element Dragon, yang means forward flight, yin means reverse flight. This is the basic rule for flying stars.

🎯
Importance of Sitting-Facing Direction

The sitting-facing direction determines the mountain and facing stars! Different sitting directions produce completely different charts with completely different fortune/misfortune.

📋
Three Steps to Chart Construction

🔄
Method to Determine Element Dragon

What element dragon is the sitting/facing → See which trigram the center-entering star corresponds to → Find that trigram's three mountains for the same element dragon → Check its yin-yang

Example: Mao (Heaven Element Dragon) → Seven enters center → Seven corresponds to Dui trigram (Geng-You-Xin) → You is Heaven Element Dragon → You is yin → Reverse flight

📝
Notation Rules

Cycle stars use Chinese numerals (一二三四五六七八九), mountain and facing stars use Arabic numerals (123456789), mountain stars in upper left, facing stars in upper right

Practical Chart Construction Example

Using Mao sitting You facing in Period Nine as an example, demonstrate complete dwelling fortune chart construction.

Essential Content to Memorize

This lesson is the core of the core of Xuan Kong Feng Shui! Practice chart construction repeatedly until you master it. Find different sitting directions and practice repeatedly.

Must Remember:
Three-chart structure: Cycle stars (Chinese numerals center) + Mountain stars (Arabic numerals upper left) + Facing stars (Arabic numerals upper right)
Cycle star chart: Current cycle star enters center, forward flight
Mountain star chart: Sitting mountain → Determine element dragon → Yang forward, yin reverse
Facing star chart: Facing direction → Determine element dragon → Yang forward, yin reverse
Three-Element Dragon formula: Earth matches earth, heaven matches heaven, human matches human
Yang forward, yin reverse: Yang flies forward, yin flies reverse
Heaven Element Dragon yin-yang: Qian-Xun-Gen-Kun are yang, Zi-Wu-Mao-You are yin

💡 Core Principle: Auspicious stars must be "used" (open doors and windows, place beds and positions), inauspicious stars must be "avoided" (sealed solid walls) or "neutralized" (Feng Shui resolution items). Remember: Form takes precedence over energy! Actual environment is always more important than theory.

🎯
Four Basic Patterns

Based on the distribution of current cycle stars (mountain and facing stars), dwelling fortune charts have four basic patterns

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ This is the first step in determining property fortune quality!

Common Auspicious Star Combinations

Mountain star + facing star combination determines fortune/misfortune of that direction. Auspicious star combinations must be 'utilized' to manifest effects.

⚠️
Common Inauspicious Star Combinations

Inauspicious star combinations must be 'avoided' (don't place important furniture here) or 'neutralized' (use Feng Shui remedies).

🔍
Correct Steps for Reading Charts

After obtaining a dwelling fortune chart, analyze in this sequence to avoid missing any key points.

Auspicious Stars Must Be 'Utilized'

Directions with auspicious star combinations should have open doors/windows, beds and desks placed there, allowing energy to flow, to manifest auspicious star effects.

Inauspicious Stars Must Be 'Avoided' or 'Neutralized'

Directions with inauspicious star combinations should avoid placing important furniture. If unavoidable, use neutralization methods.

🔄
Five Element Neutralization Principle

Based on Five Element generation-control principle, use generation-control relationships to neutralize inauspicious star energy.

Practical Case Analysis
Essential Content to Memorize

This lesson is the essence of practical Feng Shui! Read more charts, analyze more, accumulate experience. Remember: Theory is rigid, reality is flexible—must flexibly apply based on actual site conditions.

Must Remember:
Four patterns: Prosperous Mountain Prosperous Facing (very auspicious), Mountain Descends Water Ascends (very inauspicious), Double Stars Meet Sitting (prosperous people), Double Stars Meet Facing (prosperous wealth)
Auspicious star combinations: 16 literary, 28 land, 38 wealth/nobility, 41 culture, 68 authority, 79 celebration
Inauspicious star combinations: 23 fighting oxen, 25 sickness, 37 crossed swords, 59 fire poison
Use auspicious stars: Open doors/windows, place beds and furniture
Avoid or neutralize inauspicious stars: Close solid walls, Five Element remedies
Five Yellow (5) and Two Black (2) are major inauspicious stars, must neutralize when encountered
Neutralize earth sha with metal (Six Emperor Coins, copper items)
Form matters more than energy: Actual environment always more important than theory

Monthly Flying Stars refer to the nine star position distribution that changes each month. Based on Annual Flying Stars, they further refine to monthly level, enabling more precise tracking of monthly fortune changes.

For example: If Annual Flying Stars are 'annual weather,' Monthly Flying Stars are 'monthly weather forecast.' For example, the year's overall wealth fortune may be good, but certain months may be especially strong or weak.

⭐⭐⭐⭐ Must check before important matters!

🔢
Monthly Center Palace Star Calculation Method

Monthly Center Star = Annual Center Star - (Month - 1), then fly backward through nine palaces

🔄
Monthly Flying Stars Backward Pattern

Monthly Flying Stars, like dwelling fortune charts, fly backward. After determining center palace star, fly through palaces counterclockwise. This differs from Annual Flying Stars' forward flight—pay special attention.

Three Charts Combined for Fortune Assessment

True Feng Shui judgment requires viewing three layers: Dwelling Fortune Chart (property's destiny) + Annual Chart (yearly fortune) + Monthly Chart (monthly fortune). Only by overlaying all three can accurate assessment be made.

💡
Best Timing for Monthly Adjustments

Monthly Feng Shui adjustments are best performed during solar term transitions. For example, around solar terms like Start of Spring (first month), Awakening of Insects (second month), etc., are optimal times for layout adjustments.

What Are Daily Flying Stars?

Daily Flying Stars refer to the nine star position distribution that changes each day. Based on Monthly Flying Stars, they further refine to the daily level and serve as the core basis for date and time selection.

For example: If Annual Flying Stars are the 'annual climate,' Monthly Flying Stars are the 'monthly weather,' then Daily Flying Stars are the 'daily weather forecast.' Important matters must check that day's 'weather' conditions.

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Essential for date and time selection!

🔢
Daily Center Palace Star Calculation Method

Daily Center Star = Monthly Center Star + (Date - 1), then fly forward through nine palaces

🔄
Four-Chart Combined Date Selection Method

True date selection requires viewing four layers: Dwelling Fortune Chart (house fate) + Annual Chart (year fortune) + Monthly Chart (month fortune) + Daily Chart (day fortune). Four charts overlaid, comprehensive judgment of auspiciousness.

Nine Star Date Selection Formulas

For wealth choose 1 or 8, for scholarship select 4 Green. For marriage view 9 Purple, for career need 6 White. For health avoid 2 and 5, for quarrels distance 3 Jade. For ground-breaking check 5 Yellow, for loss of wealth prevent 7 Red.

Different purposes choose different stars: wealth views 1, 8; academics views 4; marriage views 9; career views 6; health avoids 2, 5; legal disputes avoid 3; renovation avoids 5; loss of wealth avoids 7

💡
Three Major Principles of Date Selection

1. Avoiding misfortune takes priority over pursuing auspiciousness (first avoid Five Yellow, Two Black and other inauspicious stars); 2. Coordinate with Dwelling Fortune Chart (daily auspicious stars must fly to auspicious dwelling chart positions); 3. Combine with personal destiny (avoid days conflicting with one's zodiac sign and Eight Characters)

Four charts overlaid, comprehensive judgment of auspiciousness. ### ⭐ Nine Star Date Selection Formulas For wealth choose 1 or 8, for scholarship select 4 Green. For marriage view 9 Purple, for career need 6 White. For health avoid 2 and 5, for quarrels distance 3 Jade. For ground-breaking check 5 Yellow, for loss of wealth prevent 7 Red. ### 💡 Three Major Principles of Date Selection 1. Avoiding misfortune takes priority over pursuing auspiciousness (first avoid Five Yellow, Two Black and other inauspicious stars); 2. Coordinate with Dwelling Fortune Chart (daily auspicious stars must fly to auspicious dwelling chart positions); 3. Combine with personal destiny (avoid days conflicting with one's zodiac sign and Eight Characters)

Lesson 16Form Feng Shui - External Environment AnalysisIn-Depth Analysis

Form Feng Shui studies how external environment affects dwellings and is the foundation of Feng Shui. No matter how good the energy analysis, if the form is wrong, it's useless! Remember: Form is substance, energy is application. First look at form, then at energy. External environment determines 80% of Feng Shui auspiciousness.

What is Form Feng Shui?

Form Feng Shui, also called Luantou Feng Shui, refers to the influence of tangible objects in the external environment such as mountains, water, buildings, and roads on dwellings. It is the foundation of Feng Shui and determines the innate pattern of a dwelling.

For example: If energy Feng Shui is 'software,' form Feng Shui is 'hardware.' If hardware doesn't work, no matter how good the software, it's useless. Like a poorly configured computer - no matter how good the operating system, it won't run fast.

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ The first essential element of Feng Shui!

🐉
Four Divine Beasts Formation

The ideal Feng Shui pattern is: Xuanwu (backing mountain) behind, Zhuque (bright hall) in front, Azure Dragon on the left, White Tiger on the right. Four directions protected, energy gathers at the center.

⚠️
Dangers of Form Afflictions

Form afflictions refer to tangible objects or patterns in the external environment unfavorable to dwellings. Common ones include road rushing affliction, wall blade affliction, heaven split affliction, reverse bow affliction, etc. The harm of form afflictions is direct and obvious - must be taken seriously.

💡
Three Major Principles of Form Feng Shui

1. Backed by mountains facing water, concealing wind and gathering energy; 2. Left and right embraced, avoid isolation; 3. Open in front, support behind. These are the most basic and important principles.

Backed by mountains: Have backing, career stable. Facing water: Bright hall open, wealth fortune flows. Left and right embrace: Energy gathers without dispersing. Open front, supported back: Advance and retreat with foundation.

🔍
Sequence for Viewing Form When Selecting Property

1. First view large environment (complex location, surrounding facilities); 2. Then view medium environment (building position, orientation); 3. Finally view small environment (floor plan layout, door and window positions). From large to small, layer by layer screening.

Lesson 17Comprehensive Feng Shui Analysis - Integrating Form and EnergyIn-Depth Analysis

True Feng Shui judgment requires combining Form and Energy. Form is the foundation, Energy is the application; Form accounts for 70%, Energy for 20%, Annual Stars for 10%. Remember: First examine Form, then Energy, finally Annual Stars. All three are indispensable, comprehensive judgment ensures accuracy.

Master Integration, Make Accurate Feng Shui Judgments

#Relationship Between Form and Energy#The 70-20-10 Rule#Dynamic Balance Principle#Person-Specific Principle#Holistic Concept
⚖️
Relationship Between Form and Energy

Form is the foundation, Energy is the application. If Form is poor, no matter how good the Energy, it can only alleviate, not fundamentally change. If Form is good but Energy is poor, adjustment can improve. Both good together makes superior Feng Shui.

For example: Form is like a person's innate constitution, Energy is like acquired health practices. Someone with good constitution, proper health practices can live long; someone with poor constitution, no matter how much health practice, has limitations.

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Core principle of Feng Shui judgment!

📊
The 70-20-10 Rule

Form accounts for 70% weight, Energy 20%, Annual Stars 10%. This is an empirically derived ratio. Form determines the overall situation, Energy fine-tunes, Annual Stars merely add blessing or difficulty.

🔄
Dynamic Balance Principle

Feng Shui is not static but dynamically balanced. The dwelling fortune chart is fixed, but Annual, Monthly, Daily Stars change, and external environment also changes. Must regularly assess and dynamically adjust.

🎯
Person-Specific Principle

The same house has different effects for different residents. Must combine with residents' BaZi (Eight Characters), zodiac, occupation, and needs to judge and adjust. Feng Shui serves people, cannot be mechanically applied.

💡
Holistic Concept

When viewing Feng Shui must have holistic concept, cannot only look at parts. Cannot only look at living room not bedroom, only interior not exterior, only present not future. Must analyze comprehensively and systematically.

Lesson 18Practical Case Deep AnalysisIn-Depth Analysis

Theory needs practice validation. Success cases inspire us, failure cases warn us. Through deep analysis of real cases, learn how to flexibly apply Feng Shui knowledge in complex real environments, avoid common pitfalls, and ultimately form your own judgment system.

Learn from Success and Failure, Master Feng Shui Practical Wisdom

#Systematic Analysis Method#Balance and Trade-offs#Dynamic Adjustment View#Avoid Superstition
🎯
Systematic Analysis Method

Successful Feng Shui practice follows: On-site Survey → Data Collection → Multi-dimensional Analysis → Solution Design → Implementation Adjustment → Effect Tracking complete process. Each step indispensable, interconnected.

For example: Like doctor treating illness: Observe-Listen-Inquire-Pulse (survey diagnosis) → Determine cause (analysis judgment) → Prescribe medicine (solution design) → Follow treatment (implementation) → Follow-up observation (effect tracking).

⚖️
Balance and Trade-offs

Difficult to find perfect Feng Shui environment in reality. Key is identifying main contradiction, focus on major issues. 70% Form, 20% Energy, 10% Annual Stars - keep this ratio in mind.

For example: Like buying house must comprehensively consider location, price, layout, amenities, etc. Cannot be perfect in everything, but must ensure main needs satisfied.

🔄
Dynamic Adjustment View

Feng Shui not once-and-for-all, needs adjustment with time and environment changes. Annual Star changes, family member changes, surrounding environment changes all may affect Feng Shui effectiveness.

For example: Like gardening, not done after planting. Need continuous pruning, fertilizing, watering according to season, climate, plant growth state.

🚫
Avoid Superstition

Feng Shui is science of environment and people relationship, not superstition and mysticism. Over-relying on Feng Shui items, ignoring actual effort, blindly copying others' experience are common pitfalls.

For example: Health needs reasonable diet, moderate exercise, good mentality comprehensive cooperation, cannot rely only on supplements; success also needs Feng Shui, effort, opportunity joint action.

Lesson 19How to Judge TimingIn-Depth Analysis

Timing refers to when Feng Shui auspicious/inauspicious effects manifest. Accurate timing judgment requires comprehensive consideration of: Period (20 years), Annual Stars (1 year), Monthly Stars (1 month), Daily Stars (1 day) four time levels, plus move-in time, renovation time, residents' BaZi and other factors. Remember: Major matters look at Period and Annual Stars, minor matters look at Monthly and Daily Stars; urgent matters adjust immediately, date selection is icing on cake.

Master Methods for Judging Feng Shui Manifestation Time

#Four-Layer Time System#Manifestation Speed Differences#Move-in Time Very Critical#Comprehensive Factor Judgment
Four-Layer Time System

Feng Shui timing divided into four levels: Period (20-year major cycle), Annual Stars (yearly changes), Monthly Stars (monthly fine-tuning), Daily Stars (date and time selection). Larger levels have deeper influence, smaller levels more flexible. Comprehensive use ensures accurate judgment.

For example: Like climate prediction: Period is climate zone (tropical, temperate), Annual is yearly climate (cold year, warm year), Monthly is monthly weather (cold month, warm month), Daily is daily weather (sunny, rainy).

🎯
Manifestation Speed Differences

Different matters manifest at different speeds: Wealth 3-6 months, Career 6 months-1 year, Health 1-3 months, Relationships 3-6 months, Academics 1 semester. Larger adjustment amplitude and more serious problems mean longer manifestation time.

For example: Like treating illness: Minor cold heals in days, chronic conditions need conditioning, serious illness needs long-term treatment. Feng Shui same - small problems quick results, big problems need patience.

🔄
Move-in Time Very Critical

Feng Shui starts working from move-in time. Period and Annual Stars at move-in determine house's basic fortune. Major renovation equivalent to 'changing fortune', recalculate from renovation completion move-in time.

For example: Like trees: Planting season (Period) determines tree's basic quality, each year's growth (Annual) accumulates yearly. After transplanting (renovation) equivalent to replanting, calculate by new time.

⚖️
Comprehensive Factor Judgment

Accurate timing judgment requires combining: Move-in time 30%, Renovation time 20%, Personal BaZi 25%, Environment changes 15%, Personnel changes 10%. Single factor judgment often inaccurate.

For example: Like investment returns: Must consider market environment (Period), industry trends (Annual Stars), company fundamentals (house pattern), personal ability (BaZi), luck (Monthly Stars) and other multiple factors.

Lesson 20Residential Feng Shui SummaryIn-Depth Analysis

Through 20 lessons of study, you have mastered the complete Xuan Kong Feng Shui system. Remember core principles: Form accounts 70%, Energy 20%, Annual Stars 10%; first look at external environment, then internal pattern, finally time factors. Feng Shui is auxiliary condition not main cause, personal effort is fundamental. Maintain learning, continuous practice, you will eventually become expert in Feng Shui field.

Mastery Through Comprehensive Understanding, From Knowledge to Wisdom Elevation

#Core Principle: 70-20-10 Rule#Systems Thinking: Point-Line-Surface-Volume#Way of Balance: No Perfect Feng Shui#Way of Learning: Theory + Practice + Reflection
🎯
Core Principle: 70-20-10 Rule

Form Feng Shui accounts 70% (external environment, internal pattern), Energy Feng Shui 20% (Flying Stars, orientation), Annual and Monthly Stars 10% (time factors). Keep this ratio firmly in mind, don't put cart before horse.

For example: Like investment: Fundamentals (Form) most important, technical analysis (Energy) secondary, market sentiment (Annual Stars) affects short-term. Long-term success relies on fundamentals, short-term fluctuations depend on sentiment.

🔄
Systems Thinking: Point-Line-Surface-Volume

Feng Shui not isolated point, but systematic surface. One direction (point) → One room (line) → Entire house (surface) → Surrounding environment (volume). Must have holistic view, don't only stare at one direction.

For example: Like treating illness: Cannot only look at symptoms (point), must find cause (line), examine constitution (surface), consider environment (volume). Treating headache when head hurts, foot when foot hurts won't work.

⚖️
Way of Balance: No Perfect Feng Shui

Difficult to find perfect Feng Shui in reality. Key is identifying main contradiction, focus on major issues. 80% good already very good, don't pursue 100% and miss opportunity.

For example: Like finding partner: No perfect person, key is finding suitable one. Main aspects compatible is good, minor flaws can accept even adjust.

🌱
Way of Learning: Theory + Practice + Reflection

Learning Feng Shui requires three steps: 1) Study theory (20 lessons systematic study), 2) Do practice (start from own home), 3) Constant reflection (record and summarize). All three indispensable, cyclical improvement.

For example: Like learning swimming: Watch tutorials (theory), get in water practice (practice), summarize and improve (reflection). Only reading books without water practice can never learn, blind practice without method also won't work.

Hello everyone, starting today, we're entering the practical guidance lessons. The previous 20 theory lessons have built a complete framework of residential Feng Shui knowledge for everyone. We now understand what parts are included in residential Feng Shui divination and how to operate these parts. Of course, to say that these 20 lessons can completely cover all of residential Feng Shui would be unrealistic. After all, the essence left by our ancestors over thousands of years cannot be fully covered in just 20 lessons. If you want to study deeper content more thoroughly, you can later enter our advanced courses for further study. However, many students, after these 20 lessons of study, already feel they have a good grasp—they can identify problems in their own homes and make arrangements, and some can even help friends with arrangements. Actually, this achieves the goal. So starting today, we'll take a practical approach, teaching everyone some very useful Feng Shui knowledge, with the aim of making it learnable and applicable. Today I'll teach you how to select auspicious dates. For those who love watching TV dramas, especially historical dramas, you often hear a phrase: 'choosing an auspicious date on the huang dao.' Although it's a TV drama, what it reflects is actually the date-selection culture in our Chinese folk culture. Ancient people selected auspicious dates for building houses, opening businesses, weddings, moving in, promotions and other matters, praying for everything to go smoothly and safely. I believe many students have only heard of auspicious days, but actually, where there's auspiciousness there's inauspiciousness, so besides auspicious days, there are also inauspicious days on the black path. This is actually explained in our old almanacs. Many people who look at old almanacs to select dates only look at one thing—you won't believe this—100% look at what? They look at the 'suitable' and 'unsuitable' for that day. For example, if you randomly open an almanac, it will use red characters to write what's suitable today, such as 'suitable for moving, suitable for marriage, suitable for starting fires, suitable for traveling.' Below it uses black characters to write what's unsuitable today, such as 'unsuitable for moving, unsuitable for traveling,' and so on. Then the vast majority of people directly look at this and select their date. Actually, this is very imprecise, strictly speaking, it's actually the wrong method. Why? Because what's written as 'suitable' and 'unsuitable' actually only explains the overall situation of that day, it doesn't mean you can use it. Let me give a simple example and you'll understand. For instance, when Winter Solstice arrives, the weather is cold, and the family discusses going to eat mutton hotpot because in most people's view, Winter Solstice is the season for eating mutton. This is called the overall situation. But today you happen to have internal heat and a toothache, so you can't eat it. Today you're not suitable for eating mutton and should eat some light food instead. So this is the principle—selecting dates should be combined with the specific situation of the person using the date, such as whether their zodiac sign clashes, which we'll discuss shortly. Some students might not understand the meaning of huang dao and hei dao. Actually, so-called huang dao is the sun's trajectory among the stars throughout the year, while hei dao is the moon's trajectory among the stars throughout the year. As Earth rotates, different position changes between the sun and moon produce different geomagnetic fields, which have different biological effects on various things on Earth. Because the moon is closest to us with the most obvious influence, we need to pay special attention to hei dao days during date selection. As long as we avoid hei dao days, the remaining days are basically good days. Even if you can't use them, they won't have bad effects on you. After understanding these general theories, we'll now focus on how to select dates. First, please everyone randomly find an almanac, or download an almanac app on your phone—any version will do. Everyone pay attention, selecting dates has three key points. First, avoid zodiac clash days. First you need to remember the twelve earthly branches corresponding to the twelve zodiac animals. Rat corresponds to Zi, Ox corresponds to Chou, Tiger corresponds to Yin, Rabbit corresponds to Mao, Dragon corresponds to Chen, Snake corresponds to Si, Horse corresponds to Wu, Goat corresponds to Wei, Monkey corresponds to Shen, Rooster corresponds to You, Dog corresponds to Xu, and Pig corresponds to Hai. Everyone can remember the earthly branch corresponding to their own zodiac sign. If you're not clear, you can look it up yourself. What is this used for? When you open the almanac and flip to today's date, you'll find a key phrase. For example, if today is February 3, 2020, in the calendar, below the numbers 2020 February 3, there will be a phrase like 'Year Jihai, Month Dingchou, Day Bingzi.' Let me explain here, recently several students from the professional Feng Shui class asked me, why is it still Year Jihai when it's already 2020—meaning it's still the Year of the Pig? Why is this? Because our stem-branch year is calculated with the Spring Equinox as the dividing point. Everyone pay attention: before Spring Equinox belongs to the previous year, after Spring Equinox belongs to the next year. So everyone should pay attention—many people born around New Year can't figure out what their zodiac sign really is. Actually it's very simple: find an old almanac, flip to your birth time, and see whether this time has passed the Spring Equinox of that year. If it has, you belong to the next year's zodiac; if it hasn't passed Spring Equinox, you belong to the previous year's zodiac. Let's continue. As we said, we find in the almanac the phrase 'Year Jihai, Month Dingchou, Day Bingzi,' which actually corresponds to this time point of February 3, 2020. Among these, we mainly focus on today's day, which is Bingzi. As mentioned before, the zodiac Rat corresponds to the earthly branch Zi, so colloquially speaking, today is a Rat day. What zodiac people can't use a Rat day? Let's check the relationship among the twelve earthly branches. We find that Horse and Rat clash because Zi and Wu clash. So today, people born in the Year of the Horse cannot use this day, even if the almanac says it's suitable for moving and you happen to be planning to move—you still can't choose today. This is the method for avoiding zodiac clash days. After avoiding zodiac clash days, the second key point is selecting auspicious days. Here everyone needs to remember a mnemonic. Today I'll pass it on to you. First remember it, and then I'll explain how to apply it. This mnemonic goes: 'Jian-Man-Ping-Shou are dark, Chu-Wei-Ding-Zhi are bright, Cheng and Kai can be used for all, Bi and Po are unsuitable.' Students, don't be confused, I'll explain clearly. First, when you open the almanac, look carefully and you'll find an information field called 'Twelve Day Officers.' Find this information box—all almanacs have it. In this information box, it will list things like Cheng Day, Kai Day, Jian Day, etc. This is what we're learning today. Let me first explain the first line of the mnemonic: 'Jian-Man-Ping-Shou are dark'—this actually tells you that Jian Day, Man Day, Ping Day, and Shou Day, where 'dark' means dark path inauspicious days, meaning these four are dark path inauspicious days. 'Chu-Wei-Ding-Zhi are bright' means Chu Day, Wei Day, Ding Day, and Zhi Day, where 'bright' means bright path auspicious days. 'Cheng and Kai can be used for all' means Cheng Day and Kai Day can be used for all purposes. 'Can be used for all' means they can be used for anything. 'Bi and Po are unsuitable' means Bi Day and Po Day shouldn't be used for anything. This is the overall meaning of this mnemonic. The third key point for selecting dates is adapting to local conditions and individual circumstances. The two key points I mentioned earlier, as long as you can use them, will guarantee you can select good dates at least 50% of the time. Why only above 50% and not 100%? Because date selection actually requires looking at quite a few things. Today I'm only telling you the most basic and simple methods. For us ordinary people selecting dates, this is enough. I can't guarantee it will have prosperity-enhancing effects, but at least it won't have adverse effects. For example, among auspicious days, Chu Day—'Chu' means to remove, to replace old with new. This day is actually not suitable for moving or registering marriages. Another example is Bi Day among inauspicious days. 'Bi' means closed and blocked. Actually this day is suitable for burials instead, representing that the tomb is firmly closed and stable. Cheng Day and Kai Day can be used for all—what does this mean? 'Cheng' means success, having results, so this day is suitable for signing contracts or seeking wealth and blessings. 'Kai' means happy, opening, unblocking—this day is actually suitable for opening businesses and suitable for moving. So you see, there are actually some small differences. But you don't need to understand it so professionally. Using my method to select dates is definitely more reliable than randomly picking from the almanac yourself. Finally, let me remind everyone that date selection is our Chinese folk culture, a summary of ancient people's life experience and an entrustment of good wishes for future matters. We can understand it and should understand it, but cannot blindly believe in it superstitiously. Success depends on people. Good results require a good mindset and your positive active actions, plus our good date, and you'll reach even higher levels. Alright, that's all for today. Follow the teacher's pace and you'll become the Feng Shui expert among your friends!

Hello everyone, I am [teacher's name]. Today we're covering the second lesson: the fastest wealth-attracting Feng Shui in residences. We know that with the arrival of the Three Yuan Nine Cycles in 2024—that is, the arrival of Period 9 (Nine Purple Fire Period)—our lifestyle and the overall societal trends will face major transformations. The Feng Shui patterns of all properties worldwide will also change with the arrival of Period 9, because during Yuan period transitions, each period replacement brings different changes. Entering Period 9, Feng Shui will transition from Period 8 Feng Shui to Period 9 Feng Shui, arranging Period 9 Feng Shui for living and working. This point is extremely important. Speaking of Three Yuan Nine Cycles and Nine Palace Flying Stars, students who have studied our theory cultivation course should all be very familiar with this. In this lesson, we'll learn methods for using Nine Stars to attract wealth. The Nine Purple Star we're discussing now belongs to Xuan Kong Flying Stars. Nine Purple Star is not necessarily in the south—it can be in any direction of your home. So to know which direction Nine Purple Star is in your home, you first need to construct your house's Xuan Kong Flying Stars chart. The house's Xuan Kong Flying Stars chart is determined based on the house's sitting mountain and facing direction, as well as when the house was built, coordinating Heaven, Earth, and Human. The so-called coordinating Heaven and Human means coordinating with the qi of Heaven timing, coordinating with Earth qi and the house's qi, and also coordinating with human qi. Simply put, a certain family building a house with a certain sitting and facing direction at a certain time determines that house's Xuan Kong Flying Stars chart—that is, the house fate. People have Eight Characters birth charts; houses also have House Fate Flying Stars charts. After understanding what Xuan Kong Flying Stars charts are, we can find the palace where Facing Star Nine Purple lands, then arrange wealth fortune at that location. Following our 'Water Dragon Spirit Does Not Ascend Mountain' principle, place wealth-attracting Feng Shui items at relatively low positions in that location—for example, golden toads, Pixiu, or lucky cats are all acceptable. This way you'll receive wealth qi. This type of Facing Star Flying Star generally follows 20-year Yuan periods, with quite profound influence, but relatively speaking, while the energy is great, manifestation periods will be relatively slow. So is there a wealth-attracting arrangement with relatively quicker manifestation? The answer is definitely yes—this requires using Annual Flying Stars charts. Annual Flying Stars we also explained to everyone in the chart-drawing lesson. Each year has its own Annual Flying Stars. For example, 2024 has Three Green Lucun Star entering the center palace. So let's chart this and see which direction Nine Purple Star is in. After charting, we'll know that this year's Annual Flying Star Nine Purple is in the southwest direction. So the southwest is also our Annual Wealth Position. This location can receive our wealth fortune qi. Similarly, you can place a fish tank or wealth-attracting items in this position. Remember this location is our Annual Wealth Position—next year it won't be here anymore. So this wealth position changes relatively frequently. Just pay attention to adjusting it according to time. Alright, that's all for this lesson. Actually, have you noticed? Once we've mastered theoretical knowledge, application becomes natural and skillful. See you in the next lesson.

Hello everyone, I am [teacher's name]. Today we're beginning our third practical guidance lesson: Feng Shui arrangements for enhancing family prosperity in residences. This lesson mainly covers the topic of enhancing family prosperity and Feng Shui. In Feng Shui theory, there are three positions that, if handled well, can to a certain degree enhance family prosperity. Enhancing family prosperity includes two aspects of meaning. First is family health—if we enhance prosperity, it represents benefits to family health. The second aspect refers to descendants—children, grandchildren, flourishing posterity, a house full of descendants. This is also one of the traditional Five Blessings. Speaking of the Five Blessings, let me briefly explain. In traditional Chinese concepts, people all hope for the arrival of the Five Blessings at their door. So what are these Five Blessings? The Five Blessings were first clearly recorded in the Shang Shu Hong Fan chapter: first is longevity, second is wealth, third is health and tranquility, fourth is virtue and good behavior, fifth is a natural end. After the Eastern Han Dynasty, to avoid the taboo of death, people changed the fifth blessing from 'natural end' to 'many children.' Eastern Han philosopher Huan Tan proposed his own summarized Five Blessings theory in Xin Lun, namely: longevity, wealth and honor, peace and joy, numerous descendants. So we say flourishing descendants is one of the traditional Five Blessings, which in traditional Chinese concepts is aspired to by people. The Chinese nation values family bloodline inheritance and family sentiment—many children and grandchildren carry the principle of bloodline continuation and family heritage. It's precisely because of people's expectations for children and descendants that there are many customs about seeking children in traditional culture. Some child-seeking activities have even become regional folk cultural characteristics. From a Feng Shui perspective, how do we enhance prosperity and enhance children/descendants? The so-called enhancing prosperity, I believe, contains two layers of meaning. First is hoping after marriage to be able to conceive and bear children—wishing for sons and getting sons, wishing for daughters and getting daughters—meaning to have them. Second is hoping the children born will be healthy, accomplished, and talented—meaning they should be good. It's about both quality prenatal care and quality postnatal nurturing. Feng Shui can enhance prosperity and improve descendants. In our homes, the following three positions should be treated with caution. First is the Zhen trigram position of the Eight Trigrams, located in the due East direction. The I Ching says 'Zhen represents thunder and the eldest son'—it's the position of the family's eldest son, the firstborn. It traditionally represents the left side, the upper position, representing masculine yang energy and upright righteousness. In the environment, if this direction has harmful objects attacking, missing corners, or filthy directions, it produces inauspicious influence on this position's Feng Shui. For example, if in the residence's East position there's a wide road running from east to west straight toward you, this is road affliction. Affliction hitting the house is inauspicious. If conditions allow, you can plant trees outdoors to provide some blocking and barrier effect. You can also use green plants and auspicious objects indoors for adjustment and management. Road affliction represents yin energy, and these resolution methods I just mentioned enhance yang energy, achieving the effect of balancing yin and yang. Feng Shui isn't just environment, direction, position and other actual physical manifestations. Feng Shui is a space-time concept—besides space, it also emphasizes time. For example, if this East position has inauspicious physical manifestations or there appears a Five Elements mutual conquest situation, and at the same time timing-wise it encounters corresponding major luck periods, such as upper yuan third period of the Three Yuan Nine Cycles—that is, reaching Three Green Wood period when Three Green Lucun Star is prosperous—or in years and months entering Mao year or Mao month, manifestation periods may occur. These were all covered in our previous theory lessons. If you're not familiar, you can review them. Second is the Xun trigram position of the Eight Trigrams. Its Five Elements nature is Wood, located in the Southeast direction. In Former Heaven Eight Trigrams it's Dui trigram; in Later Heaven Eight Trigrams it's Xun trigram—both are female positions and attributes, representing femininity. In the environment, if this direction has large mirrors appearing, since mirrors' Five Elements nature is Metal, it forms Metal conquering Xun Wood qi field, which may lead to female difficulty conceiving. Speaking of good aspects, outdoors, if the residence's Southeast position has elegant and handsome mountains and rocks with lush vegetation, this represents abundant yang qi—auspicious good Feng Shui. Third is the Gen trigram of Eight Trigrams, located in Northeast direction. The I Ching says 'Gen represents mountain and the youngest son'—it's the family's third son. Gen represents male descendants. The Northeast direction has direct corresponding relationship with flourishing or declining prosperity. At the same time, Gen (Northeast) in north-facing south-sitting residences is the ghost gate position according to Eight Mansions Feng Shui school, and in Qi Men Dun Jia it's called the Life Gate position. Moreover, this direction in the I Ching Eight Trigrams' movement sequence occupies an important position as the transition point between yin and yang qi, playing a crucial connecting role. In the environment, the Gen (Northeast) direction most taboos having graveyards, garbage dumps and similar things. Those most affected are underage males and newlywed couples—it may harm fetuses. In Feng Shui, the three directions that can enhance prosperity—Zhen (East), Xun (Southeast), Gen (Northeast)—or rather positions that in Five Elements relationships have no conflict or conquest, and are maintained tidy and auspicious, represent good Feng Shui and auspiciousness. So everyone must pay special attention to these three directions. Alright, that concludes today's lesson. May you learn something and gain something. I am [teacher's name].

Hello everyone, I am [teacher's name]. Today we're learning the fourth lesson in practical guidance: bathroom Feng Shui taboos in Feng Shui studies. In today's lesson, we mainly study bathroom Feng Shui—what issues should we pay attention to? The bathroom, or toilet, holds a very important position in home Feng Shui. As we know when examining Feng Shui, professional Feng Shui masters will investigate the directions of incoming water and outgoing water. So what is incoming water? Generally speaking, in home Feng Shui internal layouts, the kitchen represents incoming water while the bathroom represents outgoing water. Water having both incoming and outgoing creates a complete system and conforms to Feng Shui principles. Therefore, in home Feng Shui, a residence cannot lack a kitchen and also cannot lack a bathroom. If there's a kitchen but no bathroom, it's incomplete. If there's a bathroom but no kitchen, that's also wrong, isn't it? So having both incoming and outgoing is most auspicious. So in Feng Shui studies, what issues should we pay attention to regarding bathrooms? Everyone must pay attention to this. Whether buying a house or building a house, we should avoid these problems if we can, because once the bathroom's location has problems or Feng Shui problems appear, it's very difficult to renovate and very hard to change this situation. If you encounter it, it's not easy to change, so it's best we avoid it in advance. So what issues should we pay attention to? Below we'll study them. The first issue is that when we open the door, we immediately see the bathroom door, and it's door facing door. Everyone must remember this point—this Feng Shui is very inauspicious. Not only does it affect overall aesthetics—entering and seeing the bathroom door, seeing the bathroom, your mood definitely won't be good—but this Feng Shui layout also violates Feng Shui arrangement principles. In Feng Shui studies, it's believed this Feng Shui will lead to illness and moreover will cause financial loss. So entrance facing bathroom represents a declining residence. Moreover, if from outside the main door we can already see the toilet bowl, this kind of Feng Shui will cause the husband or wife in the home to have affairs. This is an affair-causing Feng Shui layout. If you don't pay attention, the home easily suffers from third parties, because the bathroom is a very secluded and private place. If we can see inside from outside, then it represents no privacy—the most secluded place is exposed to the outside. This is an affair-causing Feng Shui layout. The second point is that the bathroom absolutely must not be in the exact center of the house. Everyone must remember one point—the center position can represent the entire house's heart, just like our human heart. If the bathroom presses on it, it will destroy the Feng Shui. If you encounter this Feng Shui, it's relatively difficult to resolve, very difficult to resolve. For example, entrance facing bathroom—we can use a screen to block it. The third point is that in big cities, to fully utilize space, some people will convert the bathroom into a bedroom. Of course, if it's a new house conversion, there's no big problem. But some are second-hand houses where the bathroom has already been used and they want to change it—actually this is also not good, because the bathroom is viewed as an unclean place. Unclean places generally should be placed in inauspicious directions to suppress inauspicious stars. Moreover, it means the bathroom cannot house a bed, so if you sleep in the bathroom, that's definitely not good. The fourth point is that the bathroom preferably should be transparent. What does transparent mean? It means light can shine in and there's a window so air can circulate. If there's no window, we'd best install ventilation machinery, such as an exhaust fan, because the bathroom is a place that hides filth and dirt. You must maintain air circulation—only then is it superior Feng Shui. So if the bathroom is particularly dark and has no window, we can place some plants to resolve it. But the requirements for these plants are very high—the plant's vitality must be tenacious. Delicate ones definitely won't work. For example, pothos is very hardy and can be placed in appropriate spots in the bathroom. The fifth point is that the bathroom door must not face the bedroom door. This layout, as long as it exists in the room—whenever your bedroom and bathroom doors face each other door-to-door, if you sleep in this room, your health will definitely have problems. It's especially unfavorable for women. In this situation, we can also use cloth curtains to block it. Before renovating, we can change the door's position, trying not to have doors facing each other. We can also place a plant at the doorway to block it. If they're far apart, this problem isn't big, but if they're very close, we need to pay attention. The sixth point is the bathroom must not face the kitchen door. The kitchen door—the kitchen's position represents women, represents the housewife. If the kitchen and bathroom are door-to-door, what does it represent? It affects family health—this is also very bad. Simply put, the bathroom is an unclean place and shouldn't face any door—it shouldn't face any door in the home. You must pay attention to this point. We can place some green plants in the bathroom, and can also frequently burn some sandalwood incense to reduce inauspicious factors in Feng Shui. We can also hang Eight White Jade beside the toilet and place coarse salt under the bathroom sink to resolve afflictions. Also, the toilet also cannot directly face the door. If the toilet faces the door, whoever lives there isn't good, especially if upon entering you see the bathroom and the toilet inside also happens to face this main door—this is an extremely inauspicious Feng Shui layout. Many, many problems are caused by not paying attention to these details. During the current renovation process, the bathroom also shouldn't be made particularly dark—for example, using too much black isn't too good. Try to use white, use some white—it looks relatively clean and tidy and is better. As for the bathroom's direction, I just said it must definitely be placed in an inauspicious direction. As for how to calculate these inauspicious and auspicious directions, this is relatively complex. We need to calculate based on the house's facing direction, and now it's Period 9, then calculate according to Period 9. Generally, inauspicious directions are the mountain star's declining qi, dead qi, and affliction qi directions—for example, positions 3, 4, 5, 6, 7. These are all declining qi directions and are all acceptable. As for how to calculate, students who have studied our theory cultivation course should all know—it's a complete systematic set of qi management and chart arrangement rules. In practical lessons, we won't elaborate in detail. In any case, during renovation you must pay attention to this point—the bathroom door must not face anything, must not face doors, must not face bedroom doors, must not face kitchen doors, and must not face altars. This is very inauspicious. You must pay attention to this point. Moreover, the altar's wall must not share with the bathroom—this is also inauspicious. Also must not face toward the bathroom—all are inauspicious. Everyone must pay attention: if you want to worship deities, you absolutely cannot face the bathroom. This is a kind of disrespect toward them, and in Feng Shui it's also inauspicious. Another point is the bathroom must not be too close to the kitchen. I've seen one layout where to enter the bathroom I must pass through the kitchen—meaning first go to the kitchen, then behind the kitchen there's a door, then open this back door and enter the bathroom. This layout is also very bad—it's a water-fire incompatible Feng Shui layout, extremely inauspicious. So the bathroom and kitchen are best separated, not placed together. Alright, today we've studied home bathroom Feng Shui taboos. I am your [teacher's name].

Hello everyone, I am [teacher's name]. Today we're explaining the fifth lesson: kitchen Feng Shui taboos. In this lesson, I'll teach you how to identify kitchen afflictions, then teach you how to arrange your kitchen, and also tell you where the kitchen's auspicious and inauspicious positions are. Why is the kitchen so important? Because the food for our entire family, young and old, is all prepared in the kitchen. If the kitchen layout is not good or is suppressed by affliction qi, our entire family's health will be affected. In this situation, there's a great possibility it will especially affect the female head of household. Kitchen deployment planning is best done before renovation, because if you discover your kitchen layout is not good, it usually requires very major engineering work to make modifications. First, kitchen in the center of the house. The kitchen is not suitable in the exact center of our house, because qi and energy accumulate in the middle of the house, then slowly dissipate to other parts of our home. So if the kitchen is in the home's center, it will not only lead to unstable qi fields but will also affect the master's health and trigger heart-related illnesses. Second, stove has no backing or is in front of a window—this is a very common poor layout. When cooking, the stove's fire is affected by qi from all eight directions, making the qi field very unstable, so it affects family health. This layout represents that the master also has no backing—when starting businesses outside, it's also very difficult to encounter noble people's support. Therefore, the stove must definitely have backing. Third, water-fire conflict. Many modern kitchen designs have faucets in front of the stove. Sometimes for convenience, some designs have the sink beside the stove. These two designs form a water-fire conflict layout, causing disharmony among family members and frequent quarreling. So during design and before renovation, pay attention not to place the sink in front of or beside the stove. Best is this L-shaped design which can avoid water-fire conflict. Or you can arrange the sink at least 3 feet distance from the stove. You can also place plants between the sink and stove—this way water generates wood, wood generates fire, and the qi field will be much more stable. Fourth, beam pressure affliction. If there's a crossbeam above the stove, the stove will be under long-term affliction qi influence. The only solution is to avoid the beam or install gypsum ceiling to cover the beam. Fifth, stove over sewage drain. When deciding the kitchen position, you must understand the sewage position and avoid arranging the stove above it. This is an extremely inauspicious layout that will cause chronic diseases. Sewage's inauspicious qi will accumulate long-term in that place, so you must definitely avoid it. Sixth, water high fire low—water-fire conflict, and moreover water is higher than fire. This symbolizes that starting businesses outside is extremely difficult, often being bullied by people, very hard to stand out. Seventh, door afflicts stove. If the kitchen door or bathroom door faces the stove, affliction qi will rush toward the stove. This layout will affect family health, especially the female head of household will develop stomach-related illnesses. So avoid this kind of kitchen design. Eighth, bathroom behind. When designing stove position, you must avoid having the bathroom behind the stove wall. This layout will cause health problems, being affected by the bathroom's foul qi. There are also some cases where, due to renovation expanding the kitchen, originally the bathroom's foul qi was expelled outside the house, but because the back was enclosed without considering the foul qi expelled by the bathroom, it led to foul qi being discharged into the kitchen—this is a very bad layout. Ninth, kitchen color not suitable for red. The kitchen belongs to Fire element, fire qi will be very heavy, so red cabinets are not appropriate, because this will make fire qi excessive, causing family members' tempers to also be very irritable. Tenth, dining table in front of stove. The dining table is where family members eat together. If placed in front of the stove, the stove's fire qi will affect family members' emotions, thereby causing verbal disputes. Eleventh, stove cut by blade. Some interiors have blade afflictions. Because there was no Feng Shui angle consideration, the blade affliction's sharp angle points at the stove. This is also a layout to avoid—it will affect family health, especially the female head of household. Now you've understood the kitchen's poor layouts, so let's enter the next most important section: how to deploy your kitchen? First, the kitchen must definitely be ventilated. Ensure there are sufficient windows so cooking fumes can be expelled outside the house. This way you can avoid excessive fire qi leading to family members having irritable tempers. Next, the kitchen's position must definitely consider the 11 Feng Shui taboos we just mentioned. For example, avoid beam pressure affliction, door affliction layouts, etc. Then the stove must back against a solid wall. The position should be placed in an inauspicious position—the stove should be placed in an inauspicious position to suppress afflictions. But it should face an auspicious direction. How to choose auspicious directions? We can determine through Nine Palace Flying Stars combined with the current Yuan period. This was already covered in previous theory cultivation courses, so we won't elaborate here. Alright, that's all for today. I am your [teacher's name].

Wealth Layout Practical Guide

5 common scenarios for Northwest and Southwest position layouts

📄 View Full Content
Hello everyone, I am [teacher's name]. Today we're explaining wealth and prosperity Feng Shui layout. Among home directions, the first direction we should care about is our home's Northwest direction. Northwest corresponds to the Qian trigram, is the eldest among the 8 directions, represents career, represents male, represents wealth, so our home's Northwest cannot have a missing corner, which would represent loss and absence. Besides looking at our home's Northwest situation, if we want to be more rigorous, we should also pay attention to the outside Northwest direction problems. Once I went to Beijing to look at Feng Shui for a client's home. He worked at a bank and for work convenience bought a house near the bank. When I arrived at his home, I discovered his home's Northwest had a missing corner. But interestingly, when I stood in his home, set up the compass and looked outside the house, I discovered that outside his home's Northwest was exactly the bank where he worked. We mentioned in a previous lesson that if home's Northwest has a missing corner, we can place a safe in the Northwest position to represent this Northwest position. In this case, although the client's home Northwest had a missing corner, outside the house's Northwest happened to be a bank. This bank is incredible—a bank has far more money than a safe, so mysteriously the home's Northwest missing corner problem was resolved. Northwest having a bank, actually regardless of whether the corner is missing or not, is very auspicious. Because Northwest represents wealth and career, it's the eldest of the 8 directions. The eldest's position having a bank, everyone think about it, represents this boss is very wealthy, not lacking spending money. So now many doing business and opening companies specifically pick places with banks in the Northwest. This symbolism itself is also very good. Northwest having bank represents Northwest having wealth. The Northwest direction in the eight trigrams also represents leaders, represents boss, so from Feng Shui perspective, Northwest whether interior or exterior, seeing things related to money is auspicious. Following this logic, we can give another example. For instance, if Northwest isn't a bank but a large shopping mall, this is actually pretty good too, because a shopping mall is where people consume and spend money, very prosperous popularity means having money to spend. Conversely, if Northwest is a row of shops but these shops are very desolate, every day when you pass by you see shop transfer advertisements posted on the storefronts, showing this place itself is very declining, Feng Shui is not good, not very auspicious. So we can also say what's in the Northwest represents affinity with that thing. How to understand this? I'll give an example. For instance, as mentioned earlier, Northwest having bank represents affinity with banks. If working at a bank or frequently dealing with banks, or doing business, all are pretty good. Conversely, if Northwest is a hospital, that's not too good. Unless you're a doctor, otherwise it represents frequently running to the hospital. Going to the hospital for what? Seeing doctors, right? Continuing, if Northwest has affliction sha, for example Northwest has transformer, trash room, temple, etc., all belong to relatively taboo problems in Feng Shui. For example, having affinity with transformer—transformer belongs to fire sha, fire qi is very strong, represents irritable temper, easily getting heated and angry. Having affinity with trash room, stinking odor represents people avoiding you when they see you, very poor relationships. Once I went to look at Feng Shui for a restaurant, a storefront shop. Outside the shop's Northwest roadside had a row of trash bins. I joked with this boss, I said outside you have a row of trash bins stinking terribly, customers see it and detour, who would be in the mood to come eat at your place? Even those who don't understand Feng Shui know this situation is bad. Even if you're not in food service, not selling food, but Northwest in the eight trigrams represents Qian trigram, and Qian trigram also represents the boss's position. Stinking odor—you want customers but have none, you recruit employees but can't retain them. Why? Because others see this boss like seeing trash, not likable at all, staying far away. Now many companies with offices in office buildings are the same. You can go observe and verify—most companies with bathrooms in the Northwest probably have the situations I mentioned. Today I've supplemented some Feng Shui problems related to Northwest. Let's continue. In Yi Xue Feng Shui, we mentioned earlier that Northwest is the eldest of the 8 directions that we should focus on. Besides Northwest, among the other 7 directions, second only to Northwest must be the Southwest direction. Why? Because Northwest is the eldest, everyone think—the eldest definitely needs helpers, needs people to assist and support him. In Yi Xue, Northwest Qian trigram, Qian represents heaven. With heaven must have earth. In the eight trigrams, representing the great earth is the Kun trigram. So silently supporting and assisting the Northwest from behind is the Kun trigram in the eight trigrams, which is the Southwest direction. Actually the relationship between Northwest Qian trigram and Southwest Kun trigram is very similar to our current husband-wife relationship. Can even say identical. Qian trigram represents male head, Kun trigram represents female head. As a man struggling outside for career, earning money to support family, while the wife at home will silently support him from behind. So whether a man's fortune is good depends on whether the wife he married is virtuous. So ancient proverbs also say: with virtuous wife at home, wealth without disaster, no disaster is blessing. So Southwest and Northwest's relationship is like husband and wife mutually caring for and supporting each other. So some theories also say Northwest missing corner might represent no male head at home or male head frequently away from home, and Southwest missing corner is the same situation. So these two positions must be paired together, neither dispensable. If missing one, the symbolism is not too good. Of course, we still say we cannot generalize or overgeneralize. This is just discussion, not conclusion. So we can also say Southwest in residential Feng Shui is also a very important position, also cannot have missing corner. If corner is missing, Northwest loses support. Just like a general fighting outside without even a military advisor, alone fighting lonely battles. Southwest in Feng Shui represents female head, represents females, so Southwest problems we need to pay attention to are the same as Northwest mentioned earlier. Basic Feng Shui requirements are: no missing corner, no bathroom, also no dirty and messy situations. For example, now many commercial housing balconies face south, so home's Southwest very likely appears in living room or master bedroom these two areas. These two areas are where we frequently move and are active. If family members don't love cleanliness, throwing clutter everywhere, very possibly will pollute the Southwest position. There's a very typical and common case: now many females living in rural areas have poor physical condition and state. Why? Because many regions' village self-built houses put the bathroom outside the house, in the yard. We often see them building the bathroom in the home residence's Southwest corner. Some even raise pigs or chickens in the Southwest corner, then dig the septic tank in this position. As a result, Feng Shui problems appear—this Southwest is polluted by bathroom and these filthy gases. Besides what's mentioned above, Southwest has another very important meaning. In the eight trigrams, regarding Southwest Kun trigram's explanation, there's a phrase called Kun represents abdomen. This abdomen refers to human abdomen, that is, human belly. There's another phrase called Kun governs storage, meaning Kun trigram represents storing and collecting. So combining these two points, we'll discover Kun trigram has a characteristic—it's like a container able to hold things. Specifically what does it hold? Depends on what things are in this position of your home. This actually determines Southwest's auspicious or inauspicious nature. For example, if Southwest in your home has clutter or items like knives, guns, swords, and sticks, it's like your belly is filled entirely with clutter. Southwest placing knives, scissors, and similar sharp weapons represents knife hidden in belly. What does this mean? Represents hospitalization for surgery, also inauspicious. What's best to have in Southwest? Since Southwest represents storage and collecting, definitely should store good things. For example, Southwest has refrigerator full of food, represents home has stored lots of surplus grain. Or Southwest has wardrobe filled with hanging clothes, symbolizes no worry about food and clothing. Or Southwest has vanity table, bookcase, tall storage cabinet—all good. For example, we say having bookcase, bookcase filled entirely with books. These books represent knowledge. Southwest is Kun trigram, mentioned earlier it represents abdomen. Southwest having bookcase or books represents well-read and knowledgeable. Everyone think, isn't this the logic? Some students might want to ask: Teacher, is it okay to also place a safe in Southwest? Anyway, you said Southwest also needs good things placed, I think money is a good thing. This question theoretically is definitely feasible, but everyone should also note: everything has priorities. If Northwest can place it, we definitely first choose Northwest. If Northwest cannot place it, then choose to place in Southwest. Maybe some students want to ask: Teacher, can I place them in both Northwest and Southwest? This question is quite tricky. I had a student in my Feng Shui professional class who once told me something. Actually he was joking with me, but his words are quite vivid and appropriate for answering this question. He said: Teacher, if both Northwest and Southwest have safes, doesn't it represent husband and wife both hiding private money? Each using their own money. I think this statement seems quite reasonable. Let's continue discussing what other Southwest problems exist. Here we can also discuss from five elements perspective. Southwest is Kun trigram, Kun trigram's five element is earth. This earth element in medicine represents digestive and spleen-stomach system, so if Southwest has missing corner or is in bathroom area, usually digestive and spleen-stomach system will be poor. There's another situation: Southwest in kitchen area also has similar situation. Why? Because kitchen is a place for making fire and cooking, fire qi is very strong, five element fire is very prosperous. In five element relationships, fire generates earth, seems they have a mutually generating relationship, no problem. But we must also understand: for anything we cannot go too far, meaning we cannot go to extremes. The fire in the kitchen is too big, too prosperous, burning Southwest's five element earth until scorched. So in five elements we also have a phrase: excessive fire scorches earth. The consequence of earth being scorched by great fire is what? Is actually losing earth's power—this is the principle of extremes reversing. So Southwest appearing kitchen not only won't increase Southwest earth's power, but will actually damage Southwest. Relative to Southwest, actually Northwest appearing kitchen will be even worse, because in Feng Shui theory, Northwest appearing kitchen is called fire burns heaven gate. This is quite serious. Alright, today we'll study up to here. I am [teacher's name].

Welcome to lesson seven on bedroom feng shui. The bedroom is likely where you spend the most time at home, making it crucial to your overall well-being. While you've probably heard various bedroom feng shui tips, today we'll explore the core principles that create a harmonious sleeping environment. The foundation of bedroom feng shui rests on achieving balance in four key areas: size, lighting, bed placement, and spatial symmetry. Let's start with size. Even the emperor's bedroom in the vast imperial palace measured less than 10 square meters. This teaches us that bigger isn't always better. A bedroom that's too small—under 3 square meters—creates an oppressive atmosphere that generates tension and friction between partners. However, an oversized bedroom—over 20 square meters—presents the opposite problem: the qi field becomes too dispersed to gather properly, creating empty yin energy that makes relationships grow cold and distant. What's particularly problematic is what we call 'a room within a room,' where a smaller enclosed space exists inside the bedroom. In traditional feng shui philosophy, this extra room symbolizes something surplus or extra in your private life. I'll let you fill in what that might suggest about third parties. Next, consider lighting balance. The ideal bedroom strikes a middle ground between too bright and too dark. Excessive brightness, usually from oversized or numerous windows, doesn't just scatter the qi field—it floods the space with overwhelming yang energy. This creates an environment where occupants become restless, irritable, and prone to impulsive behavior. Conversely, insufficient natural light breeds yin excess, leading to depression and emotional stagnation. While curtains can help you control brightness, be mindful of popular decorative styles like figure-eight curtains that split at the top. These specifically attract romantic energy, which is wonderful if you're a single woman seeking partnership, but potentially destabilizing for married couples. The third principle involves what we call movement-stillness differentiation. Doors and windows are movement points where energy flows in and out. The areas furthest from these openings are stillness points. Since sleep is a state of deep stillness, your bed should be positioned as far as possible from doors and windows. The absolute worst placement is with your headboard right by the door, or even worse, directly facing it—you'll never achieve truly restful sleep this way. Equally problematic is placing your bed against a window. Not only does this leave you without solid backing, but glass is a terrible insulator. During extreme temperatures, your head and feet will experience noticeably different temperatures, creating physical discomfort that disrupts sleep and gradually undermines health. Finally, we must address bedroom balance, which operates on two levels. First is spatial balance: the empty floor space on either side of your bed must be roughly equal. When your bed is pushed flush against either the left or right wall, you've created yin-yang imbalance. This arrangement is only appropriate for single children. The most dangerous configuration is pushing your bed against the right wall. In feng shui, the right side represents White Tiger—a fierce and temperamental divine beast. Pressing your bed against the right wall is called 'forcing the tiger,' and as the saying goes, even a desperate dog will jump over walls to escape—imagine what a cornered tiger will do. When you trap and pressure the White Tiger, it will lash out. I once consulted for a family where both the master bedroom and their son's bedroom had beds flush against the right walls. Two incidents occurred that exemplified this 'forced tiger' pattern. The wife was driving home one evening when another car rear-ended her from the right side, completely destroying the vehicle—fortunately, she escaped without serious injury. Around the same time, when I visited their home, their son was hobbling around with his right foot in a cast and his leg bandaged from an injury. These weren't coincidences; they were physical manifestations of the imbalanced feng shui. The second level of balance involves furniture arrangement, particularly nightstands. You need two nightstands of equal height—one on each side of the bed. This represents yin-yang balance and equal partnership. The left side represents the masculine partner, the right represents the feminine partner. Having only one nightstand, or having nightstands of dramatically different heights, creates power imbalances in the relationship. I once evaluated a home where the woman had stacked two wooden boxes on top of her left nightstand, making it significantly taller than the right. I immediately told her that her husband was extremely dominant in the relationship. She confirmed this, adding that he'd already left her for another woman. In another home, I saw the opposite pattern: two nightstands placed side by side on the right, with only a single nightstand on the left. This is the feng shui signature of a woman's extramarital affair. Indeed, the wife had reconnected with an old classmate and left her husband for him. Furniture height creates these energetic signatures that influence behavioral patterns. In summary, bedroom feng shui ultimately comes down to achieving yin-yang equilibrium across all dimensions: appropriate size, balanced lighting, strategic bed placement, and spatial symmetry. When you harmonize these elements, you create an environment that supports both physical health and relationship harmony. One final point: avoid positioning your bed with the headboard facing west. The traditional saying 'purple qi arrives from the east' reflects the auspicious energy that flows from the east each day. Orient your headboard eastward to absorb this prosperous, harmonious qi. The opposite orientation reverses this beneficial flow. Master these principles, and you'll transform your bedroom into a sanctuary that truly nourishes your life.

Enhance Wenchang Layout Guide

Wenchang position layout and usage methods for 5 scenarios

Hello everyone, I am [teacher's name]. Today we continue with our eighth lesson on home Wenchang position Feng Shui layout. Speaking of home residence, besides enhancing people and wealth, there's another topic everyone is quite concerned about - children's academic performance. Using a method to improve children's studies is called enhancing Wenchang in Feng Shui. So to enhance Wenchang, first we must find the home's Wenchang position. Today we'll discuss this issue - how to establish the Wenchang position. Wenchang is also called Wenqu Star, and in Purple-White Flying Stars, number 4 represents Wenchang - Four Green Wenqu Star. Today let's discuss house Wenchang position. All our directions can be contained within 8 trigrams. Let's first draw a Nine Palace grid, then put in the Later Heaven Eight Trigrams. Based on our residence's mountain seat orientation, we can divide our residence into these 8 houses. For example, if we sit East facing West, we call it Zhen House. If we sit Qian mountain Xun direction, we call it Qian House. So let's organize the Wenchang directions here. Let's start with Kan House - sitting North facing South, its Wenchang position is in Gen, Gen trigram is Northeast. Let's look at Kun House - sitting Southwest facing Northeast, its Wenchang position is in Dui trigram, West direction. Let's look at Zhen House - sitting East facing West, its Wenchang position is in Qian trigram, Northwest. Let's look at Xun House - sitting Southeast facing Northwest, its Wenchang position is in the center. Let's look at Qian House - sitting Northwest facing Southeast, its Wenchang position is in Zhen trigram, East direction. Let's look at Dui House - sitting West facing East, its Wenchang position is in Kun trigram, Southwest direction. Let's look at Gen House - sitting Northeast facing Southwest, its Wenchang position is in Kan trigram, North direction. Let's look at Li House - sitting South facing North, its Wenchang position is in Li, South direction. These are the Wenchang positions for our 8 residences. House Wenchang positions are simple and easy to operate. Once everyone knows these positions, they can make arrangements. How does this Wenchang position come about? Let me introduce it to you. It's based on the mountain seat corresponding star entering central palace for flying stars, looking at the position corresponding to Four Green Wenqu Star, which is the Wenchang position for current mountain seat. For example, let's take an example - Kan House means Kan corresponding One White Greedy Wolf Star enters central palace. Students who don't know this remember to review our first 20 lessons. One White Star enters central palace, we start flying stars and get Four Green Wenqu Star position in Gen position, so we determine Kan House Wenchang position is in Gen. For other mountain seats we can also use the same method to deduce. I won't list them all here. Besides home Wenchang position, there's also annual Wenchang position. Let's look at annual Wenchang position - isn't it based on Nine Stars annual distribution, finding the palace position corresponding to Four Green Wenqu Star, that place is our home's annual Wenchang position. I believe students who've studied our first 20 theory lessons can definitely handle this easily. So after finding home Wenchang position and annual Wenchang position, how should we enhance Wenchang? We know Wenchang position corresponds to Four Green Wenqu Star, Five Element belongs to Wood, so we can enhance Wenchang by placing lucky bamboo or Wenchang pagoda in Wenchang position. Of course, we can also place other Wenchang-enhancing items, such as stepping high, or paintings beneficial for studies. Today's introduction to Wenchang position ends here, I am [teacher's name].

Elderly Health Feng Shui Guide

Health feng shui solutions for 5 scenarios

📄 View Full Content
Hello everyone, I am [teacher's name]. Today we're conducting lesson nine: Feng Shui layouts affecting health. Today let's discuss what kind of Feng Shui residence helps the physical health of elderly family members. We have a saying 'having an elderly at home is like having a treasure.' Friends with parents and elderly at home especially care about elderly health. But now many elderly still retain a habit. What habit? They like bringing things home, seeing things outside they feel still have value, reluctant to discard, so bring them home. If family children disagree, they simply hide from children and pile these things in their own bedroom. For example, I once went to see Feng Shui for a family. His elderly mother in her 60s retired with nothing to do, liked going out to exercise. Each time returning from outside she'd pick up plastic bottles, drink bottles and such. What for? Collect together to sell as recycling. Their family actually had good living conditions, just the elderly having grown up suffering hardships, though conditions now improved, this habit hasn't changed. There are also some people's elderly family members just the opposite, very interesting - they don't bring things from outside, but absolutely won't allow family to casually throw things out. For example household unwanted things, especially their own things, they're reluctant to discard, just keep piling in their bedroom. So why do I mention these two problems above? Everyone pay attention - if your elderly have above habits, you can look and see, I dare not say 100% appear, but at least 70%+ elderly health won't be too good. Where not good? In blood, bones, mental aspects - for example bone pain, arthritis, back pain, vascular diseases etc. I remember a customer just like this - his mother's leg always hurt, treatment effects not obvious. Later discovered she had both above habits. Some students will ask - teacher talked so long without mentioning Feng Shui problems. Actually I am already discussing Feng Shui. Below I'll tell everyone why elderly with above two habits experience these problems. First imagine residence/house as person's body - the house entrance door equals person's mouth, living room is heart, kitchen is spleen/stomach, toilet is urinary system, other rooms are like person's limbs hands feet. Think about it - if person's blood vessels blocked, bones grew impurities, what happens? Will hurt right? Will cause complications right? Residence actually the same - if you pile clutter at home in elderly bedroom, especially useless things piled there, house like people will have problems. Something blocks important organ, naturally people sleeping there will have physical problems. In Feng Shui each direction represents family member. Bedroom is special - besides direction representing six relations, person living in bedroom also affected, so this is sympathetic resonance relationship. This sympathetic 'lian' isn't pity's lian, but connected together's lian. So elderly's habit itself actually no problem, just consequences cause Feng Shui impact on residence, and they become direct or indirect victims. Hearing this, know what Feng Shui helps elderly physical health right? Very simple - quickly go home help elderly organize bedroom, discard household clutter, this is simplest. Besides above problems, another point also very important and typical - now many people with elderly at home often boil medicine, boil herbal medicine at home. Everyone note - in Feng Shui there's a sha called odor sha, odor's odor, fierce sha's sha. Obviously means bad Feng Shui problems caused by odors. Like you boil herbal medicine, this medicine smell very unpleasant, this is one type of odor sha. Especially in Feng Shui, in Mysterious Sky Nine Stars there's a fierce star called Five Yellow Great Sha. This fierce star's Five Element is Earth, its physical manifestation is medicine. If your luck bad, your residence kitchen happens to be in Five Yellow sha position, if you boil medicine there, that's really like what - one strike awakens what, sleeping lion wanting to come out bite people. So friends with elderly at home needing medicine boiling, best go to hospital get it boiled bring home, don't prepare herbal medicine at home yourself. Besides medicine boiling problem, principle is elderly bedroom best also don't place medications. Friends with elderly children at home generally keep some medications prepared. Remember - these medications best use fixed container to hold, place in unified location. Where specifically to place? This needs careful Feng Shui examination to know. But principle is we must understand bedroom cannot have them. Bedroom piling too many medications - we say one phrase: isn't that exactly sharing bed with illness and medications right? That's the meaning. Also, some students may ask - besides herbal medicine this odor, are there other odors also considered odor sha? Actually quite many. For example friends raising pets but relatively lazy right? Also don't often clean cages, or this pet not taught well right? Urinating everywhere defecating everywhere right? Even this pet not bathing often, its body emits this stink smell - these actually all types of odor sha. So try to avoid. Actually summarizing - as long as you insist on opening windows ventilating often, actually this odor sha actually very hard to affect people. Also one point - we all know elderly physical fitness because of age relatively fragile, especially bones - accidentally fall very easy bone fracture. Other common diseases mainly concentrated in lungs, spleen/stomach, rheumatism, heart areas. Everyone note - representing these illnesses' trigram positions are Qian Kun Kan Li 4 trigrams. Converting to directions remember: Northwest, Southwest, North, South 4 directions. So usually speaking families with elderly need especially note these 4 directions, don't have above several problems I mentioned appearing. If external environment has problems - for example these several directions outside happens to be hospital, public toilet, garbage dump, electrical box these form sha - then can only handle specific problems specifically. Speaking of external form sha, one situation also quite common - residence outside having dirty water ditch, or that kind very dirty very smelly river. I often encounter this. Before going to see customers' Feng Shui, I won't immediately go upstairs. I generally arrive half hour early, then walk circle around their home. I often see many houses outside have this kind dirty water ditch, dirty river. Regardless what direction it falls on, definitely bad for family people, especially homes with elderly. Whether you buy new house or rent, everyone note must avoid this kind form sha. I won't say everyone definitely has problems, at least most are like this. Also one point - if you separately buy housing for parents remember, best buy 4th floor and above. Why? Actually this floor's number not much relation. Rather 4th floor and above floor basically can avoid neighborhood's what, large trees street lamps etc form sha, because it's high enough right? When we cannot judge certain large trees' shape or position whether will impact Feng Shui, everyone remember very simple - just buy higher floor avoid them. Of course friends who listened to my previous lessons should know - though telling you buy 4th floor and above, but top floor we don't buy. Finally regarding physical health issue, everyone actually also don't be too nervously tense. Generally we say from Feng Shui perspective, minor ailments most normal thing, whose family hasn't been sick right? Like Jack Ma such good fate right? He also must go hospital right. So if elderly moved in without major problems, then no need manage Feng Shui. Your fate good fortune good, you naturally under this opportunity select good Feng Shui housing. No need say home has illness right? Got cold right? You hire Feng Shui master to look. We're also not doctors right? We don't treat illness, you still must go hospital. But if have long-term persistent illness accompanied by other bad things happening, like fortune aspects right? Simultaneously obviously occurred after moving in, then need pay attention. When I see customers' Feng Shui, I also focus on health safety problems. Because many customers find me, opening mouth just ask teacher, please help me enhance wealth. Actually everyone must understand one principle - having wealth without vault equals no wealth. Meaning although you can earn money, but you cannot save money, or you don't have good body to enjoy. Finally because body collapsed, you instead must spend money to buy health - that's really not worth the loss. So I often also tell my Feng Shui professional class students - whether yourself or seeing customers' Feng Shui, must achieve one point: must explain principles clearly to customer. Not saying for money, for commercial things, we just blindly cater to customer preferences right? You finally harm others - actually inside there's karma. Alright, today ends here, I am [teacher's name].

Hello everyone, I am [teacher's name]. Today we're studying lesson ten: how to enhance peach blossom. Speaking of this lesson, single women and single men will definitely be very interested. This peach blossom in Feng Shui divides into proper peach blossom and improper peach blossom. What's proper peach blossom? First we must know so-called peach blossom all between opposite sexes - only opposite sex can be called peach blossom. Of course not excluding those who like same sex in life - this doesn't belong to peach blossom, we won't elaborate much here. Enhancing peach blossom is using Feng Shui methods to increase your opposite-sex affinity. Among folk especially some ethnic minorities there's kind of love poison - that's not same thing as ours. Today's peach blossom we discuss is increasing our opposite-sex affinity through Feng Shui. Peach blossom all opposite sex, but opposite sex not necessarily must be romantic relationship - can also represent opposite-sex friends. So we often tell everyone, I say you have peach blossom luck next year. Come next year - no, I don't have peach blossom luck this year. You see this year I have nothing emotional. But you ask them did you make opposite-sex friends? They say yes and quite many. So peach blossom doesn't only represent romantic relationships, also represents friendship relations - this relationship is very subtle. Of course some say between men and women there's no pure friendship - this hard to explain. What's proper peach blossom? Means this person will help you to some extent. If emotional, also genuinely wants to be together heading toward marriage - this called proper peach blossom. But proper doesn't necessarily mean marriage - heading toward marriage, initial intention very good, this mindset very good, but not necessarily can marry - this also discusses fate. What's improper peach blossom? Deception for money or sex - deception by opposite sex all called improper peach blossom. For example many girls encountering improper peach blossom, this boy contacting you, you'll discover he treats you well, but he's not genuinely wanting to be with you - he may just want your beauty because you're pretty right? Or may want your money because you're wealthy, wealthier than him, so he has two aspects of ulterior motives. Of course we all hope to encounter proper peach blossom not improper. In Ba Zi, boys use positive wealth representing proper peach blossom, partial wealth representing improper peach blossom. Of course this rotten peach blossom for boys, many people come what may, feel doesn't matter. So many boys feel this peach blossom doesn't matter, whatever peach blossom also don't emphasize, because boys more emphasize career wealth, not emphasize feelings. So most emphasizing feelings are girls. So we often hear one phrase - men fear wrong profession, women fear wrong spouse - this is the principle. Girls once find bad husband, associate with bad partner, very likely her whole life will be ruined. But now much better - divorce phenomenon increasingly common. If really can't get along, sometimes separation perhaps better choice. But for women feelings still quite important - peach blossom feelings most important. So often say a woman, as long as you have good relationship birth good child, your life counts as successful - you don't necessarily must earn lots of money right? This for women, but men different. Men first pursue career then pursue feelings - men more emphasize career. In girls' fate chart, generally Seven Killings is improper peach blossom - whenever Ba Zi meets Seven Killings will have many problems. Proper Officer represents proper peach blossom - some people's Ba Zi have no Proper Officer, so here not discussing Ba Zi with everyone. Here we discuss Feng Shui - Feng Shui arranging peach blossom has many methods. One is annual flying stars' Nine Purple position, one is fate chart peach blossom position. Nine Purple position is Feng Shui method - it's big direction not targeting specific person. If 4 people live in your home, this layout may make all 4 people's peach blossom combine, interpersonal relations increase, family more harmonious, get along better - this is peach blossom. So don't upon hearing peach blossom think it's romantic relationship - this point we must clarify right? Fate chart has targeting for specific person. Today discussing with everyone is fate chart peach blossom - fate chart peach blossom deduced from day branch. Meaning your birth day. Enhancing peach blossom has two types - one is year branch, one is day branch. Normally our Ba Zi all take day as self - this is Zi Ping destiny principle concept. What we use now all Zi Ping Ba Zi concept - Zi Ping Ba Zi takes day as self. Day represents self - verified through over thousand years, day better represents self. How to see day branch? We see day's earthly branch - it has formula. Shen-Zi-Chen peach blossom in You position, Yin-Wu-Xu peach blossom in Mao position, Hai-Mao-Wei peach blossom in Zi position, also Si-You-Chou peach blossom character in Wu position meaning South direction - this direction is fixed unchanging. Of course may have people say his position too simple. What I tell everyone is inherently very simple, including if we want complex layout, must also consider house chart - involving house chart this very complex. In house chart One White Star and Nine Purple Star both are peach blossom. Getting through One White Star and Nine Purple Star that's very complex - different sitting orientations different. One star is 24 manifestations, two stars is 48 manifestations. General situation you must look from 48 manifestations each manifestation very precise very complex. What I tell everyone is relatively simple - it also has certain effect, not saying completely no effect, moreover very common, very practical in Feng Shui field. How to layout? Layout we first call finding Tai Chi meaning Tai Chi point. What's Tai Chi? In Yi Jing there's phrase called Tai Chi great way without outside - it describes this universe. Says this universe big to boundless - look at us now using any telescope also can't see edge - it's empty void world. Small to without inside - look at us looking smaller there's quarks, even smaller things. Tai Chi is finding center issue - meaning we want find Tai Chi, you definitely must know where we live. Look at our home has seven eight rooms living - which room? This very important. So Tai Chi where? For ourselves, Tai Chi is in bedroom. Why bedroom? Bedroom is private space, hidden space, space you individually enjoy alone - this place better represents your personal information. Living room everyone public place can't represent you. Kitchen can't represent you. Toilet moreover can't represent you - toilet not only you use, moreover your daily toilet time very brief. Balcony can't represent you. So in home only bedroom can represent you - so we must find position that can represent self. Some office workers their office staying time longer than bedroom staying time - can center on their personal office all acceptable. After finding bedroom we layout - have several methods. First is through door finding peach blossom position - we want at house center meaning diagonal line intersection place put compass. Door in what direction? Then peach blossom position in what position. For example door in West, then West is peach blossom - we can arrange peach blossom in West. This is one method. Also method - this method is through fate chart finding peach blossom position. Suppose your day branch among Si-You-Chou these three characters one of them, then South direction is peach blossom position meaning corresponding Wu this position. Found two peach blossom positions - these two points we look two things. First see your bed in what position - if your bed right in South, means you sleeping on top of peach blossom. If in peach blossom position no anything, we can place vanity table in peach blossom position. But mirror definitely cannot face your bed. If mirror faces bed will encounter rotten peach blossom - everyone must note this. If married after, mirror facing bed will definitely affect couple feelings, moreover harmful to health. In peach blossom position we can place vase - inside vase can pour water not too full, then insert fresh flowers - fresh flowers must timely replace, can also enhance peach blossom. Also more effective method is bed as center point - this method best. Same method after finding South direction, you can here place some vases, place some things related to opposite sex, place some peach blossom enhancing things all acceptable - can also place pink crystal ball. Pink in Feng Shui is peach blossom color - girls over 12 years old, room don't make all pink, will lead to early romance. Unmarried reached partner-seeking age using pink can promote her feelings. Married room too pink easily induces affairs - pink is very wonderful color. So we can place some pink things in peach blossom position - pink crystal is best, crystal itself has certain energy. Of course can also place pink other things - place mandarin ducks also acceptable. Alright, this lesson we end here, I am [teacher's name].

📄 View Full Content
Hello everyone, I am [teacher's name]. Today we discuss how to change our fortune through Feng Shui. Actually in our daily life Feng Shui can be said to be everywhere. Good Feng Shui can make us do things smoothly with half effort double results. Conversely if bad Feng Shui doing things not smooth, double effort half results. Your fortune good or bad, as long as find right method you can also control. We can learn from following several aspects. First point, yin-yang matching must balance. What does this mean? Where you live must have yin have yang, but cannot yin-yang imbalance. For example your home house too dark, or light too bright both not good, imbalanced both not good. So-called solitary yin cannot generate, solitary yang cannot grow. Laozi in Dao De Jing said, all things carry yin embrace yang, harmonizing qi for harmony. This is the principle. If yin-yang imbalanced easily has problems, appearing like feelings not harmonious, or people sometimes appear extreme. For example such case, a girl asked me to look at her house. Her house balcony not toward sun, toward shady side meaning north side, daytime at home all turning on lights. But lamp light not as good as natural light, so her house biased yin, yin-yang not very coordinated. After she bought this house, I said this house unfavorable for men. Indeed reached 36 years old, also no stable boyfriend. This is house having some yin-yang imbalance, this is one important reason for her singleness. Also usual attire try not too monotonous, also pay attention to yin-yang balance problem. Especially young men women wanting to find partner, frequently wearing all-plain professional attire, this easily yin-yang imbalance, not easy to find partner. Pay attention to attire matching harmoniously, matching brightly, easier yin-yang harmony easier to find partner. Also your own personality temperament also must yin-yang matching balance. Personality not too firm, also not too gentle, moderate better, gentle better, harmony generates wealth. Yin-yang harmony firmness gentleness combining is generating manifestation, then your fortune also becomes better. Second point, daily don't do some decline-bringing actions and behaviors. What does this mean? Usually don't sigh, especially when waking up in morning don't sigh, moreover don't quarrel with people big early morning, even easily make self decline for one day. Also usually don't say some inauspicious words, must say more positive words, auspicious words, say more encouraging words to self like I will definitely succeed and such auspicious words. Sighing, saying some inauspicious words, or spreading negative energy words, all not good omens. This very important. Sometimes you frequently listen to some sad songs, watch some sad novels, sorrowful weeping poetry, this energy all very low. Must not be melancholic sentimental easily also bring recent fortune decline. So sad love songs listen less. Also when walking don't step on roadside manholes, also easily brings decline to many matters. Often people more unlucky more easily do some inauspiciously meaningful matters. This is bad external manifestation. Bad external manifestations often have bad matters appear. You avoid them then can have more good fortune. For example this morning going out appeared some bad matter, possibly your whole day fortune all unfavorable. If morning appears good matter, good mood, possibly your whole day state all very smooth. Third point, own environment must pay more attention. Regardless your home house Feng Shui good or not good, home hygiene must keep very clean tidy. Home not messy, self also easily agitated. Home green plants growing well flourishing, then also indicates your recent state quite good. Therefore if you recently own state not good, must first adjust well own living environment, hygiene well done, what should clear must frequently clear. Don't accumulate clutter, old items don't have bad green plants flowers and such, what should change must change, for fortune all have very big influence. Especially bathroom must keep clean tidy, toilet door also not frequently open. Kitchen must be even cleaner tidier, otherwise for health very unfavorable. UV remember these two places must be especially clean tidy. Generally home especially tidy people planning all very strong, execution very strong. But orderly chaos generally quite creative, correspondingly not that strong planning and execution. If you not orderly chaos is especially messy that kind, you are problematic then easily has problems, that over time easily agitated, life also many matters easily make self chaotic becoming mess many troublesome matters. Fourth point, heaven-man unity principle. This point very important. Doing things must accord with heavenly timing, follow heavenly timing, not violate heavenly timing. For example when dark must sleep, when bright must get up work. This called heaven-man unity. So staying up late harming body most consumes fortune. Doing things not according to timing long term unfavorable for health, fortune also declines. Also usually pay attention to date selection. Date selection also following heavenly timing. For example major matters big choices and such all can select dates. Why date selection very important? We know Ba Zi Zi Wei and such destiny studies, based all birth that time starting point to deduce fate chart fortune. So starting point time can determine many matters outcomes. Sometimes for all matters as long as know starting point, many processes can be deduced. So many people choosing C-section date selection also has reasoning. Therefore like marriages funerals weddings and such important days especially need date selection, cannot be casual. Date selection sometimes selects heavenly secrets. Then you can read almanac very important. For example 1st 15th generally suitable for incense burning, 2nd suitable for visiting relatives. This kind common knowledge is general pattern, not specific date selection learning. Fifth point, don't let inauspicious omen people matters things appear in your life. First say people then say matters and things. People means don't frequently walk too close with melancholic people, negative energy very strong people. If you cannot influence them, then they inevitably will influence you, influence your good fortune. So must associate with positive energy people, you naturally also become better. Make more benefactor friends, your fortune will become better. So-called benefactors mostly are own various level leaders. For example you want promotion raise, then you should interact more with your big leader, you let them more fully understand you, right? If you because personality introverted or very timid, everything avoiding your leader, then your promotion opportunities also decline. Old saying correct, near vermillion becomes red, near ink becomes black. Put here also same. Also don't entangle too much with unnecessary bad matters. Distance from quarrels, distance from arguments, distance from conflicts. Do more positive good matters, attend more weddings for good luck and such matters. Communicate more with own good teachers helpful friends, less useless socializing. All can positively attract wealth prosper fortune. Items means don't have inauspicious things placed in own home. Broken things or some not commonly used things placed at home all not good. For example your home bowls or some tableware plates and such, having small chip or cracked chipped small chip, easily has some verbal disputes or arguments appear. Then suggest you quickly replace. Also some worn-out clothes early handle, energy-wise easily has bad attraction. Young people should not wear some holed patched clothes, wearing long time also easily fortune declines. Holes represent breaking leaking, over time not accumulating wealth. Also don't wear some striped or checkered clothes. Sometimes will have kind of bound feeling. This called heaven net earth trap. Wearing long time also not very good. Also some not very auspicious patterns or text, wearing long time also easily has some awkward matters appear. Dress normally better, auspiciously better, generously appropriately better. Sometimes excessively pursuing trends not necessarily very auspicious matter. Attire style is very important fortune-increasing method. Last point is sixth point - daily must reflect on self, adjust self, you can control own good fortune. This talk sounds simple, but persevere forming habit. Must be positive upward, sunny bright. Give stranger smile, then you also receive smile. You daily full of vigor, good mood, naturally attracts good fortune. Also bad mood time, should not transmit own negative emotions to outsiders. This affects others. This called shame. This can increase own merit. Emotion management ability very strong, own good fortune controls most of it. Also constantly must reflect on self. Discovering own problems must timely adjust. Many people lack anytime anywhere awareness reflection ability. For example discovering self bit lazy, must immediately make adjustment. Discovering own intention has problems, must immediately correct. Don't slack off making excuses for self. Can also like Zeng Guofan daily write small diary, recording own daily merits demerits gains losses. Can make self grow faster. Your fortune also becomes better. This is cultivation skill, also improvement. Own fortune very good method. This time many people might ask, living like this is it tiring? Life should be enjoyed. This talk no problem. But if you truly person wanting to do things with specific goals wanting to achieve certain accomplishments, still must have self-discipline. If you form self-reflection habit, actually not that tiring, just beginning somewhat unaccustomed. I tried this method truly effective. Give another example. Once I went to look at house. This environment gave me feeling not very good. But looking at mountains, water all cannot see problems. Li Qi Luan Tou all no serious problems. But feeling just not very comfortable. I sat quietly over ten minutes, carefully experienced then discovered southeast has some not easily discovered star sha need removing. Also when you look at yin residence, you can carefully experience comprehend, many environmental small details all life-threatening. This awareness perception ability can be refined comprehended from daily life. In life also same, must constantly reflect, continuously aware adjust. Sometimes you indeed can obviously improve own fortune. People all have own awareness ability. All animals also have approaching danger prediction ability. Then danger prediction ability higher, you also become more fortunate. Socrates said, unexamined life not worth living. But over-examined life living also tiring. My said reflection refers to people own some bad state feelings and some subconscious intuition as well as can timely adjust, can timely damage control. Then your crisis awareness naturally sharply rises. You often also invincible. So first 5 principle methods all discussing specific technical methods and such. This sixth principle is very core mindset, method many masters all using with tacit understanding. Hope above principles all can help you. Alright, this lesson we end here. I am [teacher's name].

Hello everyone, I am [teacher's name]. Today we discuss lesson twelve, front door Feng Shui. Speaking of front door we must emphasize, must especially emphasize. In Feng Shui there's saying called thousand gold door four liang house, shows attention degree toward front door. Because front door is main qi intake opening, is important checkpoint for family entering exiting, also necessary path for wealth entering. So good front door whether for family population or wealth fortune all very important. Then what kind of front door counts as good front door? Front door Feng Shui mainly must comply with following several aspects. First door dimension aspect, door dimensions must comply with Luban Ruler. Actually whether front door or other places, we all must comply with Luban Ruler dimensions. Here we briefly introduce Luban Ruler. Luban Ruler main function is measure dimensions of qi openings like doors windows. If door dimensions comply with auspicious positions in Luban Ruler can intake auspicious qi. Luban Ruler divides into 8 sections, respectively wealth, separation righteousness, harm root. Residences select Wealth and Root 2 positions as best. Actually these 8 sections 4 auspicious 4 inauspicious. Among them wealth righteousness official root all auspicious, remaining sickness separation robbery harm are inauspicious. But why say select Wealth and Root? Because this is residence seeking wealth. Also Root what meaning? Is root position, like entering treasure achieving success and such, households seek these auspicious matters. Righteousness generally used where? Temples Taoist temples use more, or some craft places, suitable use Official dimension. Normal residences speaking use Wealth and Root these two dimensions can. Use these two dimensions can intake auspicious qi, very very simple. When measuring note, measure inner diameter, meaning empty part in middle of door frame. This is Luban Ruler most basic application. Also on Luban Ruler top still has row dimensions, that dimension called Dinglan Ruler. Dinglan Ruler used to measure yin residences, so when we measure front door absolutely don't use wrong. Above said is door dimensions. Next we discuss second aspect, door color. Requires two points: first can match house yin-yang, second can coordinate with neighbor front door color. House yin-yang is you heavy yin qi then place yang color door, heavy yang qi then place yin color door. But now are many apartment buildings, its door color is fixed, then this no need change, also no way right? Most fear what? Home lighting especially poor, yin qi relatively heavy, then you get black front door, that very bad. But if yang qi very strong, can use black front door. For example like many rural yards use black, that appears very solemn. Because yard door daily sun shines down, sunlight sufficient, yang qi relatively heavy very good. Then can coordinate with neighbor's front door color. This takes five elements colors. Just you don't generate neighbor's front door, then with neighbor's front door color no conflict is fine. For example neighbor's front door white, then you also get white. Of course can also let neighbor generate you. White five elements belongs metal, then metal generates water, water color is black, you can get black front door. Also one point is door entrance must be clean tidy, this very very important. Because door entrance is main qi opening, if especially dirty chaotic poor, entire house qi will be affected. Like some people like at door entrance place shoe cabinet. Some people like put garbage bags at door entrance, then whenever go downstairs whenever throw also not very good. Clean tidy. Entering door suitable see flowers plants auspicious signs. Entering see stove, also bathroom, also home appliances. In summary suitable see generating instruments, not suitable see decline defeat instruments. This is general principle. For example entering door see peony painting, auspicious wealthy noble. Conversely entering door is iron tree peach tree not good. Everyone don't think peach tree good thing. There's saying called peach wind willow sword. Peach wind willow sword means peach tree and willow tree in this Feng Shui speaking, all some extremely individual situations have use. Peach tree is you especially urgent enhance peach blossom, at peach blossom position place one, then after period enhanced remove. Also just only this use. Hang calligraphy paintings also must aim toward auspicious content. Push door enter paste fortune character just good. Conversely hang calligraphy work, writes Luo Shen Fu. Luo Shen Fu although very very literary talented, but Luo Shen Fu not suitable hang at home. Luo Shen Fu why? Because Luo Shen Fu written by Cao Zhi? Cao Zhi praising his sister-in-law beautiful. Luo Shen Fu this uncle sister-in-law affection deep painting, hang too much easily has bad matters occur? Front door enter also taboo see mirror. Because mirror has qi reflecting function. Door itself is qi opening, qi just enters exactly meets mirror reflects qi out, then house doesn't intake qi. Some home appliances entering front door also shouldn't have. Like refrigerator, just enter door then cold right? So also not very good. This specific situations specific analysis, must be good at taking this imagery. This lesson we end here, I am [teacher's name].

If front no bright hall, then open left door more auspicious, because left direction Azure Dragon direction, Azure Dragon is auspicious. While right side belongs White Tiger, meaning left Azure Dragon right White Tiger, must Azure Dragon higher than White Tiger. At right front opening door, generally all not very auspicious. Opening north side door we call it Black Tortoise Gate. Feng Shui calls it ghost gate, it has defeat north meaning. So this residence house must be cautious opening north door. North side meaning try not open door. Opening door we must coordinate, also must coordinate this road type. In end put this door opening at which direction? This is based on residence surrounding terrain to determine. First we discuss opening middle door, meaning house proper front is rivers lakes seas, streams ditches, ponds marshes. This is having water flow or water vapor gathering situation, we must open middle door. If door front terrain very flat, not slanted, also not hillside nearby, also cannot see elevation changes, this situation we also must open middle door. Because residence front if has wide greenery flat land water pond parking lot, we call it front has bright hall. That bright hall more open better. This way external qi gathers at front, use middle door to receive this qi. Second is opening Azure Dragon Gate, meaning Feng Shui takes road as water, emphasizes coming dragon departing pulse. If door front has street or corridor, right side road long, it is coming water, left side road short is departing water. This situation, we must open left door to draw and gather this earth qi. This we Feng Shui call Azure Dragon Gate receives qi. Third is called opening White Tiger Gate, meaning if door front has street or corridor, left side road long is coming water, right side road short is departing water. This situation we must open right door to draw store gather earth qi. This call White Tiger Gate receives qi. This east south these two directions opening door beneficial career fortune. Feng Shui believes door direction relates to person's career fortune. General situation, northeast and southwest these two directions generally don't open doors. Meaning remember northeast Gen trigram, southwest Kun trigram, these two directions general situation don't open doors. With east and south two directions opening door most auspicious. Main door facing east represents sun rising from east, rising sun from east, symbolizes vitality vigor, it suitable merchants, meaning business people's opened door. Main door facing south represents sitting north facing south, emperor position, suitable politicians, entrepreneurs, wealthy merchants, celebrities etc. opened door. So everyone can look own home door if opened correctly. Alright, this lesson ends here. See you next lesson. I am [teacher's name].

Hello everyone, I am [teacher's name]. Today we learn lesson fourteen, how to choose external environment? Speaking of external environment is our surrounding living environment. From big direction is entire spacetime. We will deeply explore Feng Shui core, mainly time and space energy's influence on people. First we must understand time. Time although invisible, truly exists. Similar to chemical energy. Space energy is what our naked eyes can see, geographical environment also called physical energy. Different geographical environments produce different energy and qi fields, influence on people also different. Feng Shui actually is discipline for choosing and surveying living environment. Ancients through observing mountains rivers changes, seeking best house building locations, finally summarized method for regulating space energy. This method in Feng Shui studies summarized as Dragon, Cave, Sand, Water four aspects. Whether country city village or complex and houses all cannot leave these four aspects. Dragon refers to mountain range momentum. Cave only stays at position between mountain range elevation changes. Sand is mountain bodies or buildings on both sides of cave playing protective role. Water refers to river or water body in front of cave. These four relationship like family, Dragon as parents, Cave as oneself, Sand as siblings, Water as wife. If these elements can form layout can form good qi field, has innate advantages for residents. First let's understand big Feng Shui. In our country's entire terrain, China's geographical plate can summarize as two big rivers, three dragon veins four sea areas. In Feng Shui studies call continuous mountain ranges mountain dragon veins, originates from northwest Kunlun Mountains extending southeast three dragon veins. North Dragon from Yinshan Helan Mountains to Taiyuan. Middle Dragon from Minshan to Qinling. South Dragon from Yunnan-Guizhou Plateau extends to Fujian, Zhejiang. Water dragon veins mainly Yangtze River and Yellow River and branches. In Feng Shui mountains govern population, water governs wealth fortune. Good Feng Shui layout needs coming dragon momentum magnificent, coordinated affectionate coming water, able hide wind gather qi. Speaking finished big Feng Shui we chat about small Feng Shui. Small Feng Shui although not has big Feng Shui breadth, but also needs consider many factors. Small Feng Shui judgment mainly uses left Azure Dragon right White Tiger, front Vermillion Bird, rear Black Tortoise Four Symbols. Some people call Four Divine Beasts Four Spirit Beasts. No matter how call, you know is these four things is fine. These four establish foundation whether house forms layout. Following is specific description of Four Symbols. One Black Tortoise, house rear tall mountain or buildings needs stable square, best has tall buildings or mountain body as backing. Two Azure Dragon, house left side mountain range or buildings should be lower than Black Tortoise, but higher than White Tiger and present curved or inner encirclement shape. Three White Tiger, house right side mountain range or buildings cannot be higher than Azure Dragon, and should form inner encirclement shape. Four Vermillion Bird, house front open area should not be too vast, but should have moderate open space, like small mountains or low buildings. Broken layout situations. If house doesn't accord with above conditions, then possibly forms broken layout. Common broken layout situations following several types. One only left has Azure Dragon or only right has White Tiger. Two rear backing mountain too low or no backing mountain. Three front space not open enough, has tall buildings blocking view. Four right White Tiger higher than left Azure Dragon. Five sand form sharp ugly. Practical application. In modern high-rise buildings judging Four Divine Beasts layout can start from two directions. One is stand at building entrance observe if left right sides have guard buildings, if front is open. Two is from own balcony look out judge if left right sides sand exists, and if front is open. Specifically speaking, left Azure Dragon should be close, right White Tiger should be distant. Front space should be open, but not suitable too vast. Rear Black Tortoise needs stable tall, avoid sharp corners or gaps. Through above methods, basically can judge if house Feng Shui layout forms layout. Judgment core lies in four symbols complete, combination reasonable, form beautiful. Through theory and practical cases combination, everyone can have rough judgment of own home Feng Shui situation.

Hello everyone, I am [teacher's name]. Today we learn lesson fifteen, Feng Shui relationships for fertility. Speaking of fertility is not small matter, from big aspect speaks, concerns ethnic gene inheritance, from small aspect speaks concerns family offspring reproduction health. Then influencing fertility factors are many, this lesson we focus from Feng Shui angle to look at this problem. From Feng Shui angle aspects affecting male female fertility have following several. First is house presenting concave character shape, for example both left and right have houses, rear also has, but front has no courtyard wall or main door, this way left right houses and rear houses form concave character shape. Collected qi will rebound back and forth, very unstable, especially some office buildings also have this situation, this layout very unfavorable for pregnancy. Second situation is layout becomes reverse layout, for example related palace positions made empty also easily causes infertility. For example Zhen third palace is eldest son, you at East main palace position left bathroom or kitchen, bathroom is water symbol continuously draining water, you think can be good? Similarly kitchen is fire symbol all not good, best is at East leave bedroom, so-called East palace crown prince is this principle, name and position match. Similarly you want daughter, then you at Southeast Xun fourth palace position don't leave bathroom and kitchen. Principle is same. Xun fourth palace represents eldest daughter at this position must leave bedroom. Again one situation is palace penetration. Penetration harm meaning. Focus harm palace positions cannot penetrate, otherwise nine out of ten will have problem. First harm palace position is Kan palace cannot penetrate. Kan position resides North, Kan resides former heaven Kun position. Kun six segments all belong yin. Also add later heaven Kan middle full one yang in middle upper lower two yin, yin qi abundant. According to yin yang harmonious balance theory, Kan palace position should not see yin substances. If this palace position internal external layout sees missing corner, water dripping flat wilderness emptiness, etc., then will affect kidney and urinary system. If Kan palace water again with Qian palace water exchange connect metal cold produces black water then will metal cold water cold, men premature ejaculation seminal emission, women frigid, irregular menstruation. Second is Kun palace. Kun palace governs fertility growth, prefers yang avoids yin, prefers sand avoids water, prefers warm avoids cold, prefers clean avoids dirty, prefers unobstructed avoids blocked, prefers exposure avoids clashing. If this palace not sees yin substances, like how measured sewage pipe, doors windows, protrusions depressions and missing corners etc. then easily causes female uterine fibroids gynecological inflammation etc. affecting fertility. Also one expression form is full. Some rooms originally small, furniture etc. stuffed very full, living room inside outside bed top bed bottom again stuffed full clutter, result will create blocked layout. Kan position and bathroom drainage not clear accumulated sewage water then seepage water not clear. Kun palace clutter and water pipes etc. blockage, then fallopian tube blocked separated, and not same yin yang not exchanging. So we must in these aspects pay much attention. I am [teacher's name].

Core Principle of Yang Dwellings

If sunlight is insufficient, excessive yin qi often accumulates, leading to household unrest and making the dwelling truly unsuitable for living.
Comprehensive Consideration
House selection requires comprehensive evaluation of multiple factors including orientation, floor level, surrounding environment, and interior layout. A good house not only promotes physical health, but also brings abundant wealth, harmonious marriage, smooth career advancement, and joyful spirits!
📄 View Full Content
Hello everyone, I am [teacher's name]. Today we learn lesson sixteen, what kind of house benefits the owner? From Feng Shui perspective, auspicious house not only makes oneself healthy, also lets oneself wealth flowing in, marriage smooth, career path smooth, mood happy. One house building actually same as each person, all are living entities, don't think house is just bag of cement, plus bricks piled up building only, actually is all things have spirit. Once person at certain place builds house establishes dwelling, then this place earth mountain river qi field and spirit will attach within, this equals giving this building house injecting life qi and spirit qi. Mountain river prosperity decline spirituality will merge with house people things prosperity decline as one body. So whether house external every grass tree ditch canal mountain water, or house internal every bed toilet stove kitchen any change, damage will manifest on house owner's body, fate destiny mutually communicate, prosperity decline share together. So purchasing house Feng Shui also must pay attention. Actually one building Feng Shui good or not? Not solely from floor number digit or direction orientation to determine, also needs through floor and resident own person's destiny, principle, five elements, BaZi favorable god and other factors to combine consider. For example same one shop previous owner does business loses money, but change to another owner, then very possibly will have different result. Besides management method product different, individual's fate five elements and shop Feng Shui orientation also have very big relationship. Again for example some digit not good floors living also have luck very good. That is people's life chart five elements and this floor relatively suitable. For some people own life chart BaZi five elements not good people speaking, also can through residence Feng Shui orientation to layout and resolve. Below I list some BaZi and house orientation relationship. Four pillars BaZi favor water people suitable, first choice sit North face South house, benefits owner life chart water supplementation. Four pillars BaZi favor fire people, suitable first choice sit South face North house, benefits owner life chart fire supplementation. Four pillars BaZi favor metal people, suitable first choice sit East face West house, benefits owner life chart metal supplementation. Aid BaZi favor metal wood people, suitable first choice sit West face East house, benefits owner life chart metal wood supplementation. Aid BaZi favor metal wood people, suitable first choice face Southwest or Northeast, benefits owner life chart metal earth supplementation. In today's society buying house has become every pair about to marry new couple life indispensable part. Now's houses mostly are community commodity houses, then in Feng Shui studies how according to own BaZi choose suitable house floor? This question generally speaking has two choice methods, ordinary bit is according to zodiac sign to see, if need more precise bit, must combine birth date time BaZi favorable god to see. Of course birth date time BaZi aspect too complex, hard to explain in one word. How use zodiac sign to choose floor method? Zodiac sign is Rat and Pig people, their five element is water should priority consider ending number 1.4.6.9 floors as main, zodiac sign is Tiger and Rabbit people. Their five element is wood should priority consider ending number 1.3.6.8 floors as main. Zodiac sign is Snake and Horse people, their five element is fire should priority consider ending number 2.3.7.8 floors as main, zodiac sign is Monkey and Rooster people. Their five element is metal should priority consider ending number 4.5.9.10 floors as main, zodiac sign is Ox Goat Dragon Dog people, their five element is earth, should priority consider ending number 2.5.7.10 floors as main. Besides orientation and floor, surrounding environment is also very important factor, consider surroundings have or not harmful qi existing, like low pressure sha, reflection sha, sound sha qi, smell sha, foot cutting sha, sickle sha, white tiger sha, sword piercing sha, flying blade sha, stair clashing sha etc. These matters we also will in subsequent courses detailed explain. Besides harmful qi house, also should not directly face government offices fire station, hospital power room, garbage pool, electric pole etc. heavy harmful qi places. Interior layout aspect must ventilation bright light, 5 or more family members to live, must have 3 bedrooms or more, otherwise will appear crowded. Causes yin yang not coordinated, easily get sick, bring family members various confusions etc. Therefore choosing house also needs appropriate size. Bright hall spacious, Feng Shui's house definitely needs bright hall, bright hall size represents career size. Bright hall refers to house front spacious degree, whether yin dwelling or yang dwelling, all need bright hall in our community houses, actually balcony is our bright hall, so balcony definitely needs bright clean spacious. From general situation speaking, we choose floor, try not choose first floor and top floor. In high-rise residence, many people think first floor is most uncomfortable floor, living in high-rise residence floor Feng Shui studies likewise is same, because floors too many, first floor above all floors formed turbid qi all concentrated at first floor, seriously affects family fortune. In high-rise residence's top floor general situation all will set top floor garden, this possibly for living at top floor families plays certain cooling pollution prevention role. But from high-rise residence Feng Shui studies, top floor is one kind too high and cold synonym, namely career will many obstacles, so general situation also not recommend top floor. Yang dwelling Feng Shui most emphasizes sunlight air, so choose house to live, not only needs air fresh, and also needs sunlight abundant, if sunlight insufficient house then often yin qi excessive, will cause house not peaceful, really not suitable to live. This refers to house central part not suitable use as toilet. Otherwise then has like person's heart accumulating waste, that then naturally is more bad luck than good. If toilet not is located at house center, but located at house rear half part center, just with main door forming straight line, that also not suitable choose as residence, because this very possibly causes wealth loss people harm. Additionally street alley directly clashing not suitable, Feng Shui studies is prefer meandering avoid direct clashing, because direct clashing coming momentum fierce, if residence bears the brunt, then harm very great, cannot not be cautious. This lesson we end here. I am [teacher's name].

Avoiding knife sha mainly has two kinds. One kind is at dwelling front or nearby, another building's wall surface not aligned with own home's, and its wall like knife face cuts across. This time opposite wall surface seems like one knife directly clashing over, undoubtedly will produce many influences. Wall blade means wall forms blade in Feng Shui this kind form sha also very often seen. Another kind is building junction place is sharp corner, because in Feng Shui qi breath clings wall moves when, two wall qi at corner place converges time, qi field mutually collides, finally forms very strong qi field, causes qi field radiates. Then behind corner wall surface faced building then forms wall knife sha. Then wall knife sha how much distance has Feng Shui effect. Wall knife sha influence can be big can be small. Depends on its arm knife length and height determine arm, knife taller longer, its harmful qi greater, effect relatively multiplies. Usually speaking avoiding knife sha effective range is within 50 meters within 50 meters closer, avoiding knife sha influence harm greater. If height taller, avoiding knife sha influence also greater, and beyond hundred meters basically no much influence. Also if wall knife and own home house between road condition is vehicle flow people flow less, fierce sha harm greater. And if wall knife behind is open place, then harmful qi also will more serious, if avoiding knife direction at declining direction, North, Southwest, East, East, South, then harmful qi influence also more serious, so not only need attention distance influence, also need attention nearby surroundings influence.

Hello everyone, I am [teacher's name]. Today we learn lesson nineteen, heaven slash sha resolution methods. In our daily life, whether business office or living residence, demand for real estate all very large. Therefore many cities all established many high buildings, and these high buildings between gaps became Feng Shui heaven slash sha. Then what is heaven slash sha? How resolve heaven slash sha? How break heaven sha? Today we detailed learn bit. First we must understand what is heaven slash sha. So-called heaven slash sha is two large buildings very close together, causes two large buildings middle form quite narrow gap, looking from distance seems like building being split from heaven descending sharp axe, divided into two namely is heaven slash sha. Heaven slash sha also called heaven chasm sha, refers to two high buildings between narrow gap, like using knife from mid-air split into two halves, gap narrower, wind speed stronger, danger then greater. If dwelling faces heaven slash sha will have blood light disaster, women miscarriage, family members long illness not rising or career encounters Waterloo etc. unfavorable matters. Doing business merchants face heaven slash sha, business will like nine heaven flowing water plummet, commits customer sources scarce, wealth fortune poor, business will difficult to continue. Then how should we judge heaven slash sha? Dwelling and building opposite middle has vertical narrow gap, looking up seems like one knife, from mid-air slash building into two sides. Then some people will ask, city all building facing building wouldn't all be heaven slash sha? Everyone possibly don't know heaven slash sha has real fake distinction. Fake heaven slash sha formation has several kinds? Building and building middle this gap is these two buildings height sum 1/8 or more, then is fake heaven slash sha. This gap behind has another building standing not seeing sky also is fake heaven slash sha. Real heaven slash sha is building facing heaven slash sha distance is two buildings height sum 0.7 within. Then heaven slash sha harms have what? Heaven slash sha characteristic is wind speed turbulent, airflow impact force strong. So toward surroundings residing or doing business people impact very large, mainly affects wealth fortune health. Receiving heaven slash sha impact people will have unexpected disaster loses money. And often get sick, sleep quality not high, tongue coating red or tongue sides have teeth marks, whole body multiple lymph swelling pain, skin appears large blood spots, rashes, muscle twitching, joints mysteriously making sounds and pain, muscles have unusual insect crawling sensation and pain, intestinal stomach bloating and diarrhea, pharyngitis, back pain, night sweats, whole body fatigue, hands feet numbness, gum inflammation, oral ulceration. Anorexia, abdominal distension, rapidly emaciate, heart rhythm irregular, sleep twitching. If allow it develop will appear hypertension, diabetes, cancer etc. Heaven slash sha is Feng Shui one kind vivid saying, describes as heaven work splitting causing unfavorable situation. Specifically speaking refers to by two relatively tall buildings between formed narrow alley facing it then encounters disaster. Feng Shui emphasizes mountain embracing water hugging must have qi mountain if not forms ring shape, and has several mountain parallel arrangement, this calls river. Feng Shui studies discovers mountain river is defeat place, actual verification, wherever right at mountain river extinct, no human habitation more no towns. Heaven slash sha at two buildings between caused narrow alley, actually became man-made mountain river, because wind large qi scatters namely becomes man-made defeat place, belongs to fierce fierce fortune, toward career health unfavorable. Currently heaven slash sha part harmful qi already being scientifically explained, its scientific term calls narrow tube effect. Experiment proves narrow tube effect can make level 3 wind increase to level 8 wind. Reason say is part harmful qi, is because heaven slash sha harm not only stops at narrow tube effect above, more important is it caused qi field is current science not yet can analyze, and also is toward human body harm greater one kind energy. Therefore if we select dwelling or office house dwelling, must recognize clear whether has heaven slash sha existence. We often see one section top sharp pure office dual tower steel bone building, this kind building itself already carries one kind pressing people momentum, can bring building internal companies relatively good business opportunities, because it has good qi field, building has good appearance. But if building construction presents dual tower shape layout, two towers between has gap, causes two large buildings middle form quite narrow gap, looking from distance seems like building being split from heaven descending sharp axe, divided into two like, this one gap exactly is Feng Shui studies heaven slash sha. If its gap position exactly located at your room right front then Yi Anju Feng Shui please you must be careful. If house exactly faces heaven slash sha, then very possibly will have blood light disaster. Gap narrower, longer then more fierce, distance closer then more fierce. Therefore not suitable choose facing heaven slash sha house reside, but if is at its behind has another building fill gap, then doesn't matter. This is because airflow passes two large buildings formed gap produces airflow knife edge, like using knife from mid-air slash into two halves. Toward residing at this knife edge below house dwelling members especially fierce. Therefore easily causes disputes easily has blood light disaster, or easily suffers needs surgery disease, causes or makes business business not easily expand. Heaven slash sha space will have very strong guiding qi function. Toward it itself building no relationship, but toward surrounding buildings then has very big problems. Then heaven slash sha how to resolve? Below I give everyone resolution methods. One plant vegetation. Facing heaven slash sha house front first floor at house front second floor or above, at balcony or large window front plant vegetation with evergreen plants winter not withering, branches leaves lush, life force strong as superior, plants can choose, banana leaf, bamboo palm, Malabar chestnut, pine cypress etc. Two triangular or arc-shaped convex objects. Makes it have pause effect. Three paste hang reflective objects or mirrors. For example can make whole piece mirror paste it up or paste has folded angle shape, like waves. Or paste reflective sheets or reflective stickers, or convex headed copper mirror biting sword etc. Four lighting application also can resolve sha. One lighting shines at own this building, upward shines illuminates to building, can lift qi upward. Two from house interior perimeter outward shoots, expand own house, opposite harmful qi comes time gets dispersed up or gets shot out. Good.

Top heart sha clash very easily will make family members inner heart become chaotic, at qi field also will very easily suffer clash. This kind long-term impact below, family members encountering setbacks probability then will become bigger and bigger, finally causes all matters not smooth. Three, family often has accidents. Top heart sha impact also will make family often has accidents. Because this kind form sha toward family causes clash after, family qi field will become very poor.

Cutting Foot Sha Resolution Solutions

📄 View Full Content
Hello everyone, this is [teacher's name]. Today we'll cover lesson twenty-five: Resolving Cutting Foot Sha in Residential Properties. Following our usual approach, let's first understand what cutting foot sha is. Cutting foot sha, also called cutting foot water, was originally rare in city centers and mostly found in suburban or coastal areas near mountains or the sea. The Classic of Mountain Dragons discusses cutting foot water: water clings to the point, cutting at the feet. Below is the cutting foot; water refers to a building positioned close to water's edge. Water clinging to the point means water pressing near. A building's foundation - whether a house or tomb - positioned too close to water sources like rivers, lakes, seas, or ponds, or roads, suffering erosion or compression by water flow, commits cutting foot sha. How do we identify cutting foot sha? Urban cutting foot sha describes buildings excessively close to roads, as if the road cuts at the building's feet. More precisely, cutting foot sha occurs when roads form reverse bows and buildings are positioned too near the bow's ends. To analyze cutting foot sha's force, first examine road size and scale. Larger scale means greater impact. Small alleys or dead-ends have negligible force. Next, consider traffic flow speed - slow and congested is preferable to fast-moving. If a building borders highways or train tracks forming cutting foot sha, it's harmful even during prosperous periods; when fortune declines, disasters strike swiftly and powerfully. Third, observe whether surrounding side roads or water retention exists. The key is analyzing whether these can mitigate the cutting foot sha's speed and force. If a building has road patterns constituting cutting foot sha, first determine the direction, then assess whether it aligns with current fortune timing to utilize it advantageously. Conversely, if this sha adversely affects the building, consider how to avoid it. In directions with sha, create space barriers. Minimize or seal windows in those areas. For large-scale roads with strong traffic flow creating powerful road sha, avoidance is best; relocation is superior. Cutting foot sha's feng shui characteristics: fluctuating fortune cycles - can bring great wealth and prosperity but also sudden complete ruin. This primarily depends on the road's direction relative to the building and time-space alignment - whether it's during a prosperous period. If aligned with prosperity, easy to gain wealth and honor. When fortune declines, rapid collapse is impossible to prevent. Cutting foot sha's impact isn't limited to finances alone but affects entire family fortune. Career, wealth, health, relationships, academics, friendships, siblings - all aspects may experience two drastically different transformations. Unstable fluctuations, alternating between good and bad. First, if a residence is positioned too close to clear seas, rivers, lakes, or streams, it easily creates cutting foot sha. Water can gather qi; qi stops when it meets water. In recent years, waterfront properties and scenic residences have been marketed as high-end housing, enthusiastically sought by buyers. However, residences cannot be positioned too close to water bodies, or they become cutting foot water. Therefore, waterside living sounds appealing, but homes too near water are unsuitable for dwelling. Second, those in prosperous periods should utilize this time to advance and can gain wealth, but it won't last long. Third, those committing cutting foot sha experience dramatically fluctuating fortune, especially severely impacting finances. Fourth, family prosperity won't endure; constant ups and downs, wealth cannot be retained, and it attracts blood-related disasters. How do we resolve cutting foot sha? First, place large-leafed feng shui plants in auspicious positions in your home's living room. Second, if affected by water flow cutting foot sha, you can cover the water flow above, plant vegetation along the water's edge to block the building's reflection in the water. Third, if your main door directly faces the cutting foot direction, we recommend resolving it by changing the door's orientation. Well, that concludes this lesson. With right heart and right intention, may fortune and wisdom both arrive.

Hello everyone, this is [teacher's name]. Today we'll learn lesson twenty-six: Residential Sofa Placement Feng Shui. Speaking of home feng shui, the bedroom is most important, but the living room cannot be neglected either. The most prominent and primary furniture in the living room is the sofa, so sofa feng shui must also be carefully considered. Regarding sofa arrangement, curved placement is preferred over straight. The sofa's important position in the living room is like an important national harbor - it must be able to gather as much water as possible to prosper. An excellent harbor must have extending curved positions on both sides, shaped like the English letter U. The extending curved positions are like two arms embracing left and right, while the central recess is precisely the feng shui qi-gathering position, capable of retaining wind and gathering qi to achieve prosperity in both people and wealth. The sofa's arrangement should also be like a fine harbor, with an arm extending on each side preferably. If the sofa is arranged in a straight line, it's like a warrior with severed arms - difficult to achieve success. Some harbors, although lacking one arm and unable to have left-right support, can still prosper with wealth and people as long as they have a curved position at the water exit to reverse the water flow - what feng shui calls the lower official formation. This is precisely as the Classic of Evaluating Sites states: where lower official formation is tight, wealth and prosperity always follows. If limited by environment and the sofa cannot have arm support on both sides, then you can settle for second best and place another sofa at the water exit position to create a lower official sand formation that welcomes incoming water from the main door, forming a water-gathering configuration - this also aligns with feng shui principles. Some residences have main doors and balcony doors forming a diagonal line - then it's even more necessary to place lower barrier sand at the water exit to gather incoming water, preventing water flowing in from the main door from draining away completely. One point must be noted: no water behind the sofa, therefore placing a fish tank behind the sofa is also unfavorable. Similarly, placing fish tanks or other water decorations on low cabinets behind the sofa is not good. Another point is that ceiling beams above the sofa should be avoided. A ceiling beam above a bed only harms the one or two people sleeping in the bed, but if there's a beam above the sofa, it affects the entire family - the impact is significant, so it must be avoided as much as possible. If truly unavoidable, you can place lucky bamboo on the coffee tables beside the sofa; use continuously growing, upwardly mobile lucky bamboo to resolve the beam oppression. The third point is that the sofa should not clash with the main door. If the sofa forms a straight line with the main door, this is called clashing in feng shui - the disadvantages are considerable. When encountering this situation, it's best to move the sofa to avoid clashing with the main door. If there's nowhere to move it, then you must place a screen between them. This way, qi flowing in from the main door won't clash directly with the sofa. If the sofa faces an interior room door, there's no problem and no screen is needed. The fourth point: no direct lighting above the sofa. Sometimes the lighting around the sofa area is weak, and many people install lighting fixtures above the sofa, such as recessed ceiling lights or exposed spotlights. Being too close to the sofa with light shining directly down from overhead - from an environmental design perspective, having light shine directly on the sofa from overhead causes emotional tension, dizziness, and restlessness. If the lights are redirected toward the wall, this can somewhat alleviate the problem. Besides the above points, lastly I want to remind everyone that regarding sofa placement, if you can achieve having the side face doors and windows with the front facing the activity area, that would be best. The purpose of this arrangement is to expand the visual range for family and friends, giving seated or reclining occupants a sense of open, bright comfort. At the same time, whether for lighting and ventilation or for sitting and reclining, everything can flow unobstructed and conveniently. The above covers the specific explanation of sofa feng shui. In the next lesson, we'll focus on explaining the feng shui of residential indoor bed placement. Well, that's all for this lesson. With right heart and right intention, may fortune and wisdom both arrive.

Bed Head Direction Guide

Bed head direction directly affects sleep quality and physical health. Select your current or planned bed head direction:

Scientific Principle

In the human circulatory system, the aorta and major veins run in the same direction as the head and feet. When sleeping in a north-south orientation, the direction of the aorta and major veins, the body's sleep position, and the Earth's north-south magnetic field lines are all aligned, making it easiest to fall asleep with the highest sleep quality.

Hello everyone, this is [teacher's name]. Today we'll learn lesson twenty-seven: How to Place Residential Indoor Bed Position. As we all know, the bed is where we rest every day, so its comfort directly affects our sleep quality. In feng shui, bed placement is actually very particular. If the feng shui is poor, it will cause us to sleep restlessly, frequently have nightmares, or even experience hallucinations, seriously affecting our mental state. Therefore, bed placement has important significance in feng shui. Next, let's thoroughly understand what feng shui taboos exist for bed placement in the home. What are the feng shui taboos for bed placement in the home? First, regarding the bed itself, consider whether its length and width are sufficient, whether the bed body is level, and whether it has very good support and comfort. As for bed height, it should generally be slightly higher than the sleeper's knee level. If too high, constantly bending over won't be particularly convenient. So remember the bed must not be on the ground - the bed base should be empty; don't pile clutter, otherwise it won't ventilate and easily gets damp, leading to back pain. Second, placing the bed regardless of location, the key is that bedroom occupants should be able to see the bedroom door and windows from the bed, and at dawn there should be sunlight shining on the bed - this greatly helps absorb nature's energy. Third, the bed head cannot lean against the door. If accommodating limited bedroom space by placing the bed at the door side, this violates bedroom taboos. Fourth, bed head should be solid not empty; bed head should be against wall, not window. If bed doesn't lean against wall, bed head must have a headboard so the head doesn't hang in air, and bed head back cannot be toilet or kitchen. Fifth, bed head orientation is best north-south, aligning with Earth's magnetic field. Head facing south or north for sleep benefits physical and mental health. In the human circulatory system, aorta and vena cava direction aligns with person's head-foot direction. When person is in north-south sleep direction, aorta and vena cava direction aligns with body sleep position and Earth's north-south magnetic field lines, making it easy to fall asleep with highest sleep quality, and north-south sleep position also has disease prevention and health benefits. Bed head orientation must not face west. From modern science perspective, because Earth rotates west to east, if head faces west or east for sleep, blood will frequently rush directly to head, so sleep will be very unstable with poor quality, and long-term the person becomes very lacking energy. Sixth, bed cannot directly face door to avoid being completely exposed with no privacy or sense of security, also affecting rest. If encountering door clash, can use screen to block door - this not only blocks bed-door clash taboo but also protects bedroom privacy. Seventh, bed cannot face mirror. Because in half-sleep state, waking at midnight easily frightened by mirror reflection, causing mental unrest and dizziness. If bedroom has mirror facing bed, can cover it at night or turn it toward wall. Of course best method is to embed mirror inside bedroom closet - mirror opens for use, normally when not using close the door. Eighth, bed head cannot be placed under ceiling beam. Many friends know this point. Just need to pay attention when decorating home - don't choose square-frame ceiling decoration style. Perhaps looks good but this is also a type of beam. Long-term beam pressure on head easily causes head ailments like dizziness and headaches. Ninth, bed head painting issue. Hanging paintings at bed head is one method to decorate bedroom. Various paintings exist. Generally speaking, mainly hang paintings with auspicious meanings; don't hang decaying, bizarre, or fierce beast type paintings at bed head. If you don't understand this aspect knowledge, can hang family portrait to enhance family harmony. Generally speaking, following these 9 aspects will be fine. This lesson ends here; hope you gained something. With right heart and right intention, may fortune and wisdom both arrive.

Hello everyone, this is [teacher's name]. Today we study lesson twenty-eight: Residential Potted Plant Feng Shui Principles. Speaking of potted plants, we usually place them indoors as interior decoration or for air purification purposes. However, in feng shui, besides these functions, potted plants can also attract wealth and dispel negative energy. Different placement positions have different effects. Home plant placement positions have different feng shui effects in different locations. First, entrance and window areas are suitable for water-cultured plants or tall-stemmed plants, such as water-cultured lucky bamboo, Chinese evergreen, money tree, tall iron tree, or golden ficus. Because these locations typically have airflow with good air circulation, placing tall plants or aquatic plants helps maintain room humidity and temperature balance. Second, the living room is the most multifunctional space in the home where friends gather, relax, watch television—a very important activity space. Living room emphasizes sufficient lighting, so avoid placing too many dense potted plants on the balcony to prevent blocking sunlight. A bright living room promotes family prosperity. Living room feng shui relates to family harmony and interpersonal relationship cultivation, ultimately affecting family fortune and prospects. Usually use small to medium potted plants or flower arrangements, avoiding large potted plants that easily attract mosquitoes and create oppressive feeling. Special occasions can have temporary arrangements. Busy working families can choose green foliage plants to relieve stress; on holidays can switch to more colorful foliage for decoration. Foliage plants must be placed in living room. Of course, also arrange according to your living room situation. Third, vanity tables and desks—observation orchid leaves change cyclically with temperature variations through green, white, pink, peach red, finally back to green. Placing beside owner's desk helps cultivate temperament. Additionally, water fir, orchid grass and other ornamental plants are also suitable here. Fourth, hallways best hang vine-type water-cultured plants like pothos, green spirit, English ivy. These plants are easy to shape, and hallways are usually well-ventilated, providing their optimal growing environment. Fifth, in bathrooms snake plant leaves can absorb water vapor from air, making it ideal for bathroom use. English ivy can purify air and kill bacteria, and being shade-tolerant can be placed in bathrooms. Ferns and peperomia prefer humidity and can be placed beside bathtubs. Sixth, bedroom pursues elegant, quiet, comfortable atmosphere. Placing plants inside helps improve rest and sleep quality. Since bedroom space beyond bed is often limited, should use small to medium pots or hanging plants. Spacious bedrooms can use standing large potted plants; smaller bedrooms can choose hanging potted plants or place plants in decorative pots on windowsills or vanity tables. Jasmine, hyacinth, or night-blooming jasmine emit sweet fragrance allowing natural aromatic sleep. Placing clivia, golden pothos, bamboo and other plants with soft qualities relaxes nerves. Bedroom plant cultivation medium can use sphagnum moss instead of soil to maintain indoor cleanliness. Due to improved living standards and desire to increase indoor greenery, evergreen potted plants make excellent indoor decorations, but must choose evergreen, vigorous plants that don't easily wither or shed leaves. Seventh, kitchen can place spider plants and pothos which have strong air purification and mosquito repelling effects, making them best choice for kitchen and can also be placed on refrigerator. Additionally, different floors suit cultivating different plants. For low-floor residents, best to cultivate orchid, azalea, striped bamboo, spider plant, camellia and other shade-tolerant plants. Higher-floor residents, due to excessive sunlight, are more suitable for cultivating sun-loving plants like bougainvillea, osmanthus, michelia, gardenia, jasmine, milan, cactus, barrel cactus, ixora, coleus, hibiscus. For these plants, when placing pots best choose southeast orientation because direct sunlight duration here is most suitable. Finally, we'll categorize plants by five elements so everyone can choose plants to cultivate based on their destiny attributes. Five elements metal plants have yellow flowers paired with metal pots and accessories. If home has too much wood energy or insufficient water energy, can place these plants for adjustment. Top choices include money tree, ardisia, narcissus, yellow chrysanthemum, jade plant. Five elements wood plants are all green plants—choose seed plants because wood represents vitality and growth, so start growing from seeds. Pair with natural wood planters. If home has too much yellow or fire energy is too soft, can arrange five elements wood plants. Five elements water plants are mainly water-cultured and hydroponic plants paired with blue or transparent glass pots. If home has too much red or wood energy is too weak, can use five elements water landscaping for adjustment. Five elements fire plants have red flowers or red fruits—select red containers to meet requirements. If home has too much black or earth energy is too weak, can use this type of landscaping for adjustment. Market-available potted plants include phalaenopsis, anthurium, impatiens etc. Five elements earth plants can grow without sunlight and have large leaves with short stature. If home has too much water energy or wood energy is too weak, can use water element plants to adjust home's yin-yang balance. Generally market-available water element plants include green gem which can all be cultivated. Alright, regarding potted green plants, today's lesson ends here.

Hello everyone, I am Master Lu Wen. Today we study lesson twenty-nine: Residential Aquarium Placement Feng Shui Principles. Many friends ask me whether they can place an aquarium at home, and where to position it to attract wealth. Actually, aquariums are extremely important in home feng shui—arguably the most important element because their power is tremendous. Why? Before we understand their proper use, before determining whether something is useful and where to use it, we must first understand the underlying principles. The aquarium's impact is actually its effect on the qi in our homes. When we consider aquarium placement, we're really examining which directional qi field in our house will be affected. So we must understand that aquariums influence qi, and this influence comes from water. Why does water create this influence? We need to understand water's characteristics. What qualities does water embody in feng shui? It's what we often call the feng shui principle: qi disperses when meeting wind, stops when meeting water, and flows with water. So we understand the relationship between qi and water—water affects qi. We also know water has several types: stagnant water, active water, external water, internal water. These manifest at different application levels. Therefore, when using an aquarium, we must understand that what actually creates the effect is the water inside the aquarium affecting the qi. We know that after qi enters through our door, it circulates inside and divides according to the Eight Trigrams into eight directional sectors. Some sectors are beneficial—what we call wealth positions, which are good positions. Other sectors are unfavorable—what we call negative energy positions. This distinguishes between beneficial qi and harmful qi. Normally, we say negative energy sectors cannot be activated. You cannot place aquariums in negative positions. We know that fortune and misfortune arise from movement. If you place an aquarium in a negative energy position, the aquarium's activation will stir up the harmful qi. So placing the aquarium in the correct position is extremely important. If you place it in a beneficial position, your wealth qi will increase. If you place it in an unfavorable position, your wealth qi will decline, and the negative position will affect family members' health. If this coincides with inauspicious annual stars, it will affect other matters as well. Therefore, we must be extremely cautious when using aquariums. Once we understand water's effects, we realize that some aquariums have lids. When you keep fish and cover it with a lid, it prevents the aquarium water from contacting qi, so it has virtually no effect. You can place the aquarium anywhere—it serves purely as decoration. Some people might use an entire wall or entry area as an aquarium partition. The water cannot contact qi, so this too serves only decorative purposes without affecting feng shui. The only possible influence would be form-based feng shui considerations. Since we now understand that water affects qi in aquariums, we can use Xuankong charting to map out the current period's directional stars in a Flying Star chart, and then we'll know how to properly position the aquarium. This shows why theoretical knowledge is truly important. Learning theory allows you to integrate understanding, know not just the what but the why, and apply principles flexibly. Alright, that concludes today's lesson.

Hello everyone, I am [teacher's name]. Starting today we begin studying office feng shui. The saying goes 'the door is worth a thousand gold, the building worth four taels.' Today's office feng shui lesson begins with understanding the office door—the company door. The company door is the enterprise facade. Door decoration and arrangement is key to how clients perceive the company. In feng shui terms, it represents the enterprise's wealth fortune, personnel, and prosperity, relating to the entire company's future destiny. What feng shui principles govern office door orientation? Which direction provides good feng shui for company doors? What feng shui taboos apply to office doors? Let's discuss specifics. First, office door feng shui principles. One: According to Luban ruler feng shui measurement tool, if the office door opens in wealth prosperity and official star positions, you'll have noble assistance, wealth deity blessings, steady advancement. If opened in illness, decline, defeat positions, it causes employee health problems, unfavorable affairs, business losses, making company leadership's career repeatedly fail. For specific office door orientation, determine based on company owner's destiny trigram five elements to establish door position. Two: Office door should follow left Azure Dragon, right White Tiger feng shui principle—preferably open company door on Azure Dragon side, meaning the left side. That is, people inside facing the door see it on their left; people outside facing the door see it on their right. From feng shui perspective, this position symbolizes vigorous company energy, great fortune, thereby improving company efficiency and thriving business. Three: Company door is the main channel for qi entry. Door facade color and materials are critically important. From five elements conflict perspective, office doors avoid using extreme colors as primary, avoiding simultaneous use of water-fire conflicting colors—red, blue, black combined creates yin-attracting, wealth-declining phenomena. Normally use yellow-gray as five element neutral colors—more ideal, representing auspicious safety and wealth attraction. Next, office door orientation feng shui. Normally we determine company door orientation based on enterprise industry. One: Five element fire industries—flammable goods, electronics, fireworks, optics, eyewear, advertising, photography, lighting, stoves. Sit north face south, sit east face west, sit southeast face northwest. Two: Five element metal industries—hardware, jewelry, precious metals, automotive, transportation, finance, banking, machinery, excavation, appraisal, mining, judicial, law, government, officials, professional management, athletics, etc. Sit west face east, sit southeast face northwest, sit east face west, sit northwest face southeast. Three: Five element water industries—insurance sales, maritime, docks, frozen foods, aquaculture, sanitation, circus, magic, fishing equipment, fire extinguishing, firefighting, dining, restaurants, etc. Sit south face north, sit north face south. Four: Five element earth industries—real estate, construction, agricultural products, livestock, jade, ceramics, consulting, brokerage, building materials, decoration, renovation, leather goods, meat processing, hotel management, entertainment venues, etc. Sit south face north, sit northeast face southwest, sit southwest face northeast. Five: Five element wood industries—cultural publishing, newspapers, magazines, literature, arts, performing arts, cultural and sports goods, tutoring, education, floriculture, planting, vegetables, fruits, wood products, medical supplies, medical personnel, religious figures, textile, garment, fashion design, clerical, accounting, etc. Sit west face east, sit northwest face southeast, sit northeast face southwest, sit southwest face northeast. Finally, office door feng shui taboo compendium. One: Company door must not face elevator doors. Door directly facing elevator is major taboo in office door feng shui. Elevator doors constantly opening and closing with many people creates excessive pedestrian flow producing energy field disturbance. Elevator door opening and closing mixes in other energy fields, affecting office personnel work, scattering personnel focus while also affecting overall enterprise fortune. Two: Company door must not directly face building sharp corners. In office feng shui, doors absolutely must not directly face building sharp corners, chimneys, or peculiar architectural features, as this taboo directly affects entire enterprise company development. Remedies: One method is closing this door and creating another office door. Two: If structural constraints prevent closing this door, you can use screens for blocking. Three: Company door must avoid multiple side door entries and exits. When enterprise fortune is poor, in attempt to improve capture opportunities, you might open a side door within office space, but this side door cannot be multiple—only open one, otherwise creates prosperity leaking phenomena. Alright, regarding office door feng shui, that concludes today's lesson.

Hello everyone, I am [teacher's name]. Today we study lesson thirty-one: Company Finance Room Orientation Feng Shui Principles. The saying goes, the finance room is the company owner's money vault. A company's primary purpose is making money, so finance room feng shui is critically important. The finance room controls company cash flow, making feng shui considerations crucial during renovation—poor design easily creates problems. What should we pay attention to regarding finance room feng shui orientation? Let's study this today. First, we must note finance room feng shui taboos. Everyone must pay attention. Taboo One: Finance room should not be positioned immediately visible upon entry; avoid main door directly facing finance room door—owner cannot accumulate wealth. Taboo Two: Finance room manager should not sit with back to window—best to have backing support; seating position absolutely avoid drain pipes on sides or beams overhead. Taboo Three: Finance room absolutely avoid overly large or numerous doors/windows or excessive lighting—causes unstable energy field, wealth dispersal configuration. Taboo Four: Finance room floor should not be higher than outside areas—best level, adding threshold even better. Taboo Five: Finance room should not be located where exterior has large pits, ancient wells, bridges, roads, reverse bows, sharp corners—unfavorable for financial management. Taboo Six: Finance room should not be positioned above or below bathrooms or kitchens; immediately adjacent to bathroom in same room is taboo. Taboo Seven: Finance room positioned in office area wealth position, vitality position, current prosperity position is best; coinciding with owner's destiny chart wealth star position even better. Taboo Eight: Finance room shape should be square and regular—avoid circular, compressed, triangular, horn mouth, or other irregular shapes. Taboo Nine: Finance room colors best use white or beige—earth-metal mutual generation principle; avoid fire red tones. Taboo Ten: Air conditioner and fans should not be positioned behind finance manager's back; air conditioner layout also avoid blowing directly outward toward door—causes inability to accumulate wealth. Taboo Eleven: Safe placement requires recording—safe opening should face inward, not toward door or under beams. Taboo Twelve: Corridor ends; radiating office layout central positions unsuitable for finance rooms—especially avoid long corridors, long roads creating gun sha—wealth destruction configuration. Taboo Thirteen: Interior should remain clean—display wealth-attracting, wealth-accumulating auspicious calligraphy/paintings, wealth-attracting ornaments, broad-leafed plants have prosperity-enhancing power. Above covers finance room's 13 taboos. Next let's discuss company finance room feng shui layout. One: Suitable plants for placement. Finance room controls company financial lifeline; placing plants in finance room can enhance company fortune. When selecting plants for finance room, absolutely avoid thorny branches or needle-leaf varieties like roses—while they beautify office environments, they harm fortune. Best select varieties with rounded leaf shapes and larger leaves, like evergreen, begonia, money tree—all have excellent prosperity-enhancing effects. If placing large flower arrangements, vase selection also critical—taller vases more beneficial for fortune; after adding water and flowers, brings continuous wealth flow. Two: Safe placement taboos. Finance room's most important item is the safe, so absolutely ensure safe placement position avoids harmful sha. First, safe cannot be positioned under beams—prevents wealth from entering. Cannot be in conspicuous locations—prevents wealth leakage. Second, safe door cannot face main door, nor align with water flow or wind direction—otherwise wealth comes then immediately leaves, cannot preserve wealth. Regarding wind direction, especially note air conditioners and fans—air conditioner and fan blowing directions are wealth-leaking orientations; pay special attention when placing these items. Three: Feng shui orientation position. In office feng shui layout, what about finance room feng shui position selection? What issues require attention for finance room feng shui position selection? These are questions every company must consider. For companies, whether cash flow or transaction accounts, these are company survival and development lifelines. To protect company economic privacy while avoiding feng shui damage, best position finance room in company's more secluded areas. Finance room feng shui position selection in more concealed locations. This way, whether company internal employees or external visitors cannot disturb finance room. Stable energy field not only helps finance personnel maintain positive mentality, but also benefits company financial stability and growth. Some companies position finance room feng shui near company main entrance—this is very inappropriate. Finance room door too close to company main door, or directly facing company main door creates conflicting configuration—not only affects physical health, but constantly entering/exiting airflow also causes wealth qi loss. Four: Feng shui orientation layout. A company's finance department is critically important. Finance room should be quiet, not active. The saying goes 'wealth should not be exposed,' so this department's office should have privacy—ideally a separate room immediately adjacent to chairman's office. Finance room's work involves handling money, so best position in wealth location, placing safe in prosperity wealth position, ensuring company's continuous wealth flow. Above concludes this sharing on finance room feng shui orientation introduction. That's all for today.

Hello everyone, I am [teacher's name]. Today we study lesson thirty-two: Company Boss Office Feng Shui. Speaking of boss office layout, first we know the boss controls company policy, requiring exceptional decision-making ability and precise judgment. Environment affects people's emotions and work efficiency. To obtain relatively good working environment, particularly regarding boss office arrangement, note the following issues. Boss office size has particular requirements. Some bosses, to display grandeur, make their office very large; some, to save space, have no office—both situations are inadvisable. Boss office size should occupy company's total area's approximately 1/4 or 1/5. Neither too large nor too small is appropriate. This specifically refers to office buildings, companies not including factories. Boss room area remember not too large—cannot gather qi, showing solitary image, business will decline. Never assume larger room means more grandeur; of course too small also inadvisable, representing difficulty expanding business, limited development pattern. Generally should be 15-30 square meters, and best positioned on higher floors. Then boss office desk-chair placement. General manager's office chair placement also has strict requirements. First, chair back cannot be empty—must have wall for backing support. Chinese people doing anything emphasize having backing support; back wall serves as backing mountain, having backing mountain ensures feng shui receives care from all aspects. Boss chair backing wall correct distance should be about one foot from wall, allowing boss chair to rotate left-right forward-backward, achieving ability to advance and retreat when handling matters. Furthermore, boss office door cannot open from backing mountain. Meaning door opening direction cannot be on wall behind boss's back—this easily causes company subordinates to secretly scheme while oneself cannot detect, thereby bringing unexpected disasters to company. Main door directly rushing boss desk also not very good method; most standard door opening is at boss desk's right front—this best conforms to feng shui general manager office door opening principles. Another aspect: entry route to boss room should also be smooth. Although general manager room mostly located in back, route from main door to room cannot be winding or obstructed by debris or winding paths. This way wealth qi cannot easily enter room, instead causing business development difficulties. Additionally, boss office shape not suitable as L-shape. Multi-corner offices also inadvisable—not conducive to coordinating and communicating with employees and clients. Circular offices also inadvisable. Final point: boss room glass should not be too much or too large—otherwise reduces privacy; suitable to use curtains for decoration. Desk position should face window or have visibility; employees best aligned with employee seating or house's sitting direction—this way can unite top and bottom, can also encourage all people. Having discussed boss office taboos, next let's discuss boss office position selection. A company's boss must sit in prosperity qi wealth-generating position to possess overall leadership command ability. Can select general manager office position based on house's specific direction. Normal circumstances, office wealth position's position, optimal position is boss office entrance's diagonal line position, including following three situations: If residence door opens left side, wealth position is on right diagonal line top end. If residence door opens right side, wealth position is on left diagonal line end. If residence door opens center, wealth position is on left-right diagonal line top ends. Below I've summarized 8 directions' door openings, boss office's relative positions—this is not definite; specifically if combining boss's birth year would be even better. I'll enumerate these 8 positions for everyone. One: North-facing house must use true north and southwest as boss office. Two: South-facing house must use true south and northeast as boss office. Three: East-facing house must use true east and northwest as boss office. Four: West-facing house must use northwest and southeast or true south as boss office. Five: Northeast-facing house should use northwest and northeast as boss office. Six: Southwest-facing house should use true east and southwest as boss office. Seven: Northwest-facing house should use true west and northwest or true north as boss office. Eight: Southeast-facing house should use southeast and southwest as boss office. Having discussed boss office position, now discuss boss desk placement orientation. Boss desk placement orientation very important, must be placed in room's most important orientation, principally in immovable direction. But best still coordinate with boss's birth chart configuration for positioning. For example, if boss is West Four Life person, should first select West Four House as company location, then partition this building's vitality direction into one room as boss office, only then can completely complement natural world's qi field and magnetic field, career will have natural assistance. Some feng shui masters believe if birth chart lacks wood, east belongs wood, so desk best placed in west sitting west facing east; if birth chart lacks fire, south belongs fire, so desk best placed in north sitting north facing south; if birth chart lacks metal, west belongs metal, so desk best placed in east sitting east facing west; if birth chart lacks water, north belongs water, so desk best placed in south sitting south facing north. Above two types are general principles; in actual application, we can chart Flying Star configuration—specific charting our theory courses all have detailed explanations; everyone can according to our learned knowledge find most auspicious seating position. Finally let's discuss boss office other considerations. First regarding boss office plant considerations: Wealth position displays vigorous growing plants that continuously grow, can make home's wealth qi continuously prosperous, fortune even better. Therefore at wealth position display evergreen plants, especially large-leafed or thick-leafed round-leafed golden pothos, rubber tree, money tree, and Brazilian iron tree most suitable, but note these plants should use soil for planting, cannot use water cultivation.

Hello everyone. Today we study lesson thirty-three: Office Employee Area Feng Shui. Normally, the boss office should be in the company's rear section. The boss office position is very important—it is the key to enterprise success or failure. In principle, the boss's office should be in the company's rear section, like a military commander controlling and directing from behind—this way easier to control employees, and employees more easily obedient and dedicated, with wealth naturally flowing in abundantly. Additionally, the boss's desk and chair should be larger than other employees' desks and chairs—this way there is master-servant distinction, otherwise employees easily climb above the boss, creating difficulties in coordination. Furthermore, manager offices should be behind subordinates. In a position with boss above and subordinates below, an excellent manager must be a strategist and coordinator, so the manager's office cannot be set in front of subordinates, otherwise causing subordinates to overstep situation. In principle, the higher the position, the further back they sit, and the manager office door also cannot directly face the boss or meeting room door, otherwise easily causing suspicion and disagreement between boss and manager. Additionally, the manager's desk color should be as bright as possible—light-colored desks, simple in quality, and chairs should have backrest and armrests—this symbolizes having backing mountain and benefactors, so managers will have greater contribution and support power to the company. In employee office areas, employee desks and chairs arranged in rows is best. Employee seating configuration done well can drive wealth fortune and cooperative power. Therefore, when arranging employee desks, pay attention to avoiding face-to-face pairs, because face-to-face easily leads to arguments and opposition, so employee seating arrangement best able to use row seating method most ideal, symbolizing everyone working together in harmony and harmonious interpersonal relationships. Additionally, the back of seats best able to have wall or low cabinet, symbolizing backing support—this way won't cause high employee turnover. Also, require employees to maintain personal desktop tidiness and cleanliness, because desktops kept clean and fresh process business matters more efficiently. Additionally, next to seats cannot have large trash cans or debris—same as restrooms, trash cans or debris piles are also source of inauspicious qi, avoid them for good fortune. Also, seats cannot directly face restroom door. Restrooms are places where foul qi gathers, and restroom doors are where foul qi exits—people long-term around restroom doors or directly facing restroom doors will get sick from absorbing too much inauspicious qi. If cannot avoid, can install a screen or large broad-leaf plant between restroom and seat—can block some foul qi, and restroom door must also be kept closed at all times. Regarding seats, seats cannot directly rush main door. Because main door is the entire office's qi flow and energy entrance-exit, seats directly facing main door will be rushed by incoming qi field, frequently affecting a person's subconscious nervous system, causing hot temper or unexplained illness. Can set up a screen or plant at doorway as resolution method. Seat front cannot tightly adjoin wall—this way buffer zone insufficient. Human eyes grow in front to capture more information. If seat too close to wall, conversely cannot see surrounding people and things, will cause subconscious unease, also affecting nervous system stability. Also, seat front best not to have people. If seat front also has person face-to-face, also a type of psychological sha—no personal privacy space, either causing mutual constraint or distracting attention, liking to chat and laugh with other person affecting work. Best is between two people place some potted plants or files to separate. Having discussed seat front, then seat rear already has wall or cabinet backing—cannot back door or walkway. Human back of head is brainwave radiation area, also one of human body's most sensitive parts for sensing qi fields. Therefore, seat rear best is fixed immovable things. If behind has people walking, frequently makes people mentally unfocused, invisibly transferring part of attention to back of head—long-term will consume energy, affecting work efficiency and health. Final point is seat most taboo overhead beam pressure. Some people in office have exactly a beam overhead, some people overhead is low-hanging ceiling—these things in feng shui called overhead beam pressure, meaning long-term will make people experience work pressure, receive superior's criticism, suffer petty person's slander, neck pain, fortune obstructed. Alright, today's lesson mainly discussed office area feng shui considerations. See you next lesson.

Besides purifying air and decoration, it can also play a certain wealth-attracting role. First, placing greenery on office desks—desktop plants cannot be oversized. Besides placing plants at main entrance and various corners, offices also place plants on desks. When placing plants on desks, they cannot be oversized—best to place relatively small plants that won't affect our work sight lines. If plants are oversized, they'll affect our work efficiency. Furthermore, cannot place fake plants. Some companies for convenience will place fake plants in offices—don't need care. But this is very taboo in feng shui. Fake flowers are dead, have declining meaning—this way indicates company will slowly move toward low valley. Plants suitable for office placement: Pothos—many companies like displaying this plant because pothos itself is very easy to care for. Moreover, pothos has formaldehyde absorption function. Peace lily—relative to offices, more people cultivate it at home, but relative to home, offices actually more suitable for placing peace lily, after all offices have many people, and peace lily has very good carbon dioxide absorption function, so placing peace lily in offices can purify it. Also elephant ear taro—elephant ear taro is a natural dust collector, therefore placing it in offices is very good, after all office dust is abundant.

But this type plant at home not recommended to cultivate much. Fourth is two bamboos—bamboo grass, five bamboo. Bamboo grass green lush, four jade clouds overlapping, quiet beautiful. Five bamboo original name asparagus, soft branches tender green hidden, vines long deep like flowing clouds water. Bamboo grass and five bamboo both lily family asparagus genus perennial herbaceous flowers, from South Africa, arrived our country nearly hundred years, treasured by our people, entering thousands households, placing room desktops. Two bamboos also important flower arrangement materials, flower basket flower bundle widely used, supporting artistic flower arrangement displays more beautiful artistic conception.

Hello everyone. Today we study lesson thirty-five: How to Select Retail Sites for Thriving Business. We all know that opening a shop and doing business naturally means hoping to make big money, but if the shop's site selection feng shui is poor, business naturally won't prosper. In places that highly respect feng shui like Hong Kong and Taiwan, many people's shops have been evaluated by feng shui masters—these are what we call 'prosperity shops.' So what locations make prosperity shops? Today we'll discuss this in detail. First, at the feng shui level, shop site selection should consider the following aspects. Choosing a commercial location involves many considerations. For instance, some consider selecting a street name with auspicious meaning, or choosing a door number they believe will bring good fortune as their shop address. Such choices, besides providing psychological comfort to merchants and customers, also carry auspicious symbolic meaning. Generally speaking, retail site selection should note the following aspects. First aspect: When selecting shop sites, find the most popular locations. Whether prosperity comes first depends on whether the chosen location is good. Customers are the wealth gods—site selection examines three flows: vehicle flow, foot traffic, and water flow. Shops aren't afraid of clustering together; they favor crowds. Wherever popularity thrives and people gather, that's where wealth-making locations are. Many vehicle flows with slow speeds, abundant foot traffic without congestion, convenient external transportation—this is called harmonious neighborhood circumstances. Second aspect: The shop door must avoid harmful sha. Shop entrances most taboo are scissor roads and reverse bow roads—not only failing to accumulate wealth but also breaking wealth and inviting disaster. When the shop door and various formations create rushing sha, wealth qi suffers damage. However, if prosperous运stars arrive at the facing direction, rushing isn't feared. 'When prosperity rushes the happy palace, the treasure is priceless—the more it rushes, the more prosperous.' Third aspect: Shops should avoid proximity to or facing government judicial authorities, because these places carry excessive sha energy, often leading to sluggish surrounding commercial circles. Fourth aspect: Shop doors should open at qi-gathering positions. Doors are qi intake openings—intaking vital qi and auspicious qi means intaking wealth qi. Doors can open wide to attract customers. If roads exist before doors, observe road length and pedestrian flow direction. Roads are water; water is wealth. Shops generally should establish counter-water arrangements, meaning opening doors facing incoming water. People coming from the left—open right door (White Tiger door) collecting Blue Dragon water; people from the right—open left door (Blue Dragon door) collecting White Tiger water. Generally, the direction with more pedestrian flow is incoming water, the longer road side is incoming water, and less pedestrian flow direction is departing water. Fifth aspect: Shop shapes should conform to feng shui. Generally speaking, square shapes are best—avoid triangular and irregular shapes. Additionally regarding site selection: First is choosing prosperity over isolation. Normally, places with dense pedestrian traffic are prosperous areas. According to feng shui, where there are people, there's vitality. The more people, the more vigorous the vitality—vitality brings business prosperity. Second is choosing openness over narrowness. Feng shui in residential site selection emphasizes open frontage, receiving vital qi from eight directions. This aligns with business principles of welcoming customers from all sides. Following this principle when selecting shop addresses, also consider openness directly in front of shops—no obstructions like walls, utility poles, billboards, or excessively large obscuring trees. Third is choosing east-facing or south-facing over west or north. Feng shui in selecting yang residences strives for south-facing orientation to avoid summer sun exposure and winter cold winds. Commercial site selection similarly must consider avoiding sun exposure and cold winds—thus the best is also south-facing orientation. Additionally regarding shop exterior styling: From merchandise marketing perspectives, emphasizing shop exterior styling achieves the goal of establishing commercial image, requiring this exterior styling to possess distinct uniqueness—emphasizing shop exterior characteristics, using shop exterior styling's uniqueness to promote itself and attract customers. Another point: Prosperity shops should avoid inauspicious objects when opening doors. From psychological and environmental hygiene perspectives, shop door directions should also avoid directly facing buildings feng shui deems inauspicious. Inauspicious buildings feng shui mentions mainly refer to certain types like chimneys, toilets, livestock pens, stables, funeral homes, hospitals, etc.—buildings that easily cause psychological discomfort. These buildings either emit black smoke, stench, wailing, or illness. Buildings with inauspicious characteristics bring these airflows—feng shui views them as harmful implements. If shop doors open facing inauspicious buildings, those stenches, wails, and illness implements will sweep in. For operators, constantly being in such environments causes mental exhaustion, poor mood, and severe cases even contract illnesses, leading to injury, defeat, and death. Naturally during shop site selection, avoid opening businesses in areas with inauspicious buildings. If for other reasons shops must be established in areas with inauspicious objects, when opening doors definitely avoid these inauspicious objects, choosing directions with superior qi. Moreover, behind the main door it's best to install a screen for additional sha energy obstruction. Feng shui emphasizes yang residences opening doors avoiding inauspicious objects. In another sense, this emphasizes people's work and life requiring fresh air and good visual environments. In good environments, people work with pleasant spirits and best intellectual performance—naturally success rates are highest. Regarding shop feng shui site selection, most suitable shop-opening locations: First, commercial districts. Commercial district areas are ideal places for residents to shop, stroll, and relax, also the best locations for shop openings. However, because commercial district venue fees are relatively high, not all shops find them ideal opening locations. These venues have high fees and strong competition with all industries competing. Besides large comprehensive shops, they're more suitable for shops with distinctive characteristics to operate and develop. These locations feature good commercial benefits, relatively large investment costs—should provide targeted customer services, with better business during holidays when customers are numerous. Second, student gathering areas. These areas near schools—students' shop-visiting motives mainly involve purchasing study supplies, books, daily necessities, plus gathering, chatting, and passing time. Should provide appropriate services and goods targeting student needs. Summer and winter vacations are slow business periods requiring flexible operations. Third, office worker concentration areas. These areas concentrate office workers whose shop patronage purposes are basically eating or purchasing daily necessities, office supplies, or discussing business and chatting. These areas feature lunch and dinner times as business peak periods, with light weekend and holiday business. Fourth, near stations. Areas near train stations, subway stations, and long-distance bus stations concentrate passing travelers, suitable for shop openings. These areas feature customers mainly being passing passengers, very different from office workers and students. Though their purchased goods are very diverse, mostly they purchase time-efficient, easily portable items. Due to large crowd flows, these areas have relatively high commercial value, especially suitable for developing food, consumables, daily necessities shops. Fifth, residential areas. These areas' customers are residents within and nearby the residential district, mainly housewives. Holidays and after-work times include other family members. These areas feature strong consumption power for household-related goods, especially greatest daily necessities consumption. Shops providing unique household services can all achieve good development. Sixth, entertainment tourism areas. Being entertainment tourism locations, customer consumption demands mainly involve eating, drinking, playing, relaxing, entertaining, so suitable for food, consumables, entertainment, daily necessities shops to develop. However these areas often have strong temporal characteristics—peak times with surging crowds, low periods with sparse visitors. Of course if near residential or commercial districts, that's another matter. Seventh, suburban areas. These areas were previously considered less ideal shop-opening locations, but now due to rapid urban development and large vehicle increases, suburban area commercial value is rising. These areas feature mainly providing drivers of various vehicles with living, resting, entertaining, and vehicle maintenance services. Our country's urban suburban areas possess considerable variability. Many currently low-population suburban areas will become prosperous community centers with urban construction development. Far-sighted investors who can grasp opportunities, securing pioneering foundations one step ahead—future wealth will certainly roll in. Finally let's discuss shop site selection feng shui and road shapes. Shop feng shui quality closely relates to road shapes. Different roads all have that kind of feng shui issues—this is what you must consider when selecting shop sites. First, T-shaped roads. Commercial buildings or shops facing T-road intersections generally commit road rushing—only occurring when one's own shop is independent. Facing the T-road head means straight road rushing approaches, near the shop a horizontal road intercepts. When shops face T-roads, definitely examine whether the road is in the shop's auspicious or inauspicious direction. Second, cross-shaped roads. Cross roads mean one horizontal road plus one straight road—their intersection forms a cross. Commercial buildings close to cross roads—feng shui quality is relatively difficult to judge, because roads have comings and goings, auspiciousness or inauspiciousness depends on their coordination. Generally speaking, after arranging star charts, observe the cross road in auspicious or inauspicious directions, whether it matches personal destiny for more accurate analysis. Third, three-way roads. According to feng shui, generally disfavor building at three-way roads because three-way roads have influence destabilizing commercial fortune. If one three-way road rushes toward the shop, it will cause family health rapid decline or easily generate disputes and conflicts. Fourth, scissor roads. Upon exiting seeing two forked roads rushing into the door—feng shui calls this scissor roads. Intersecting qi fields affect shop managers' decision-making and judgment. Normal situations should face the crossing road. Fifth, reverse bow roads. When commercial buildings or shop fronts simultaneously encounter reverse bows and enveloping roads, this truly represents income coming and going phenomena—on one hand income is very substantial, but large expenditures within shops also cause budget losses. The saying goes 'money earned but none saved.' Encountering such problems can hang mirrors at doors for resolution. Sixth, straight road emptiness. Straight road emptiness means main doors directly facing straight roads representing wealth retreat. From qi field perspectives, shops directly facing roads are easily rushed by qi fields, invisibly causing physical weakness, mental confusion, thus affecting business which naturally declines progressively. Seventh, Sky Cutting Sha. Whether residences or shops, all taboo committing Sky Cutting Sha. What is Sky Cutting Sha? We've explained before—it means one's residence or shop faces directly between two buildings' gaps. Specific resolution methods already discussed previously—I won't repeat here. Eighth, blocking-spike sha. If before shop doors or windows exists a utility pole or large lightbox sign, this means committing blocking-spike sha outside doors, representing inability to retain talent. So when selecting layouts should note this point. Ninth, water dragon reverse flow arrangement. Water departing means water bending forward and flowing away. From one's own shop door seeing a road where the shop entrance side is higher, then continuously descending forward—this is water dragon reverse flow arrangement. Even T-roads can judge this—financial fortune is poor. So before operating business, when water dragon reverses flow, unsuitable for choosing to open shops. Tenth, facing dead aspects. Main doors cannot face dead aspects—otherwise not only will qi flow be obstructed and unsmooth, but also easily accumulate turbid qi, adversely affecting health, and career-wise symbolizes no way out. Alright, the above targets some retail selection feng shui considerations. Everyone must familiarize themselves with these taboos and considerations, then can observe shops around you—which type do they belong to? Today we conclude here.

Hello everyone. Today we study lesson thirty-six: Shop Signage Feng Shui Principles. Speaking of signage, it can truly be called the eyes of our shops—the most visible part of the entire shop. Therefore, a good sign can bring more customers to the shop, thereby making our business more prosperous. From a feng shui perspective, the sign background color represents customers, while the sign text represents the owner. Generally speaking, background generating text is most auspicious, like red background with yellow text. Text restraining background is secondary, like white text on green background. Text generating background is neutral, like red text on yellow background. Background restraining text is most inauspicious—for example, if sign background is red and the text is white, red belongs to Fire representing customers, white belongs to Metal representing owner—Fire restrains Metal creating restraint of the master, which will manifest as customers bullying shops, severe customer bargaining, difficult employee management, etc. Additionally, there's sign color clashing with industry Five Elements. Sign colors should be designed according to the company or shop's industry Five Elements affiliation. Generally speaking, sign colors generating industry Five Elements is most auspicious, industry Five Elements restraining sign colors is secondary auspicious, industry Five Elements generating sign colors is neutral, sign colors restraining industry Five Elements is most inauspicious. For example, aquarium industry Five Elements belong to Water, yet the sign uses yellow as main tone—yellow belongs to Earth, Earth restrains Water. Earth serves as Water's authority and restriction, while gui Water represents the fish survival environment, and Water by analogy represents wealth. This will manifest as fish fry frequently becoming ill, sluggish business, great operational pressure, etc. Then there's sign colors contradicting owner's destiny. Sign background color generating text color, text color generating owner is most urgent. Sign colors cannot use the owner's destiny taboo Five Element colors. For instance, if the owner's destiny favors Water Five Element while avoiding Fire and Earth Five Elements, yet the sign color uses red background yellow text or yellow background red text—this often results in poor operations, bad reputation, business never thriving, even facing closure. There's also Five Element clashing between one's sign and neighboring shops' signs. Walking down major streets, it's not hard to discover various colored shop signs standing—if your shop business isn't thriving, have you checked whether your shop sign is being restrained by signs from across the street, above, or neighboring shops? For example, if your shop sign's main color is purple while that distant opposite shop sign's main color is black—purple belongs to Fire, black belongs to Water, Water restrains Fire—when Fire is restrained by Water, can business prosper? Even if purple is what your destiny favors, the color effect is greatly diminished. After discussing Five Element generation and restraint, let's examine form school aspects. First, signs cannot be damaged or deteriorated. Signs are a shop's image—in feng shui, where form exists, aspect must exist. Sign text peeling off, deteriorated damage, dimmed luster, etc., indicate decline imagery affecting shop operations which progressively worsen. I remember locally there was a restaurant called 'Three Crises'—initially business was quite good, but the sign suffered typhoon damage, the character 'three' became 'one,' and 'crises' became single 'crisis'—the owner paid no attention and the sign was never repaired. Later, 'One Crisis Restaurant' again suffered typhoon damage, the 'crisis' character became deficient, appearing like the 'complete' character—even 'one crisis' was gone, becoming 'One Complete Restaurant,' and finally operations became very sluggish, ending in closure. Additionally, signs cannot be placed crookedly. Crooked sign placement left unattended will招致 marital discord and master-subordinate relationship disharmony, thereby affecting business which gradually enters declining fortune. Final point: sign backs shouldn't have different wood-grain materials. If different wood materials are printed with wood grain on sign backs—this is greatly inauspicious, suggesting many dispute matters will occur later. Finally let's discuss sign material selection—material choice also carries great feng shui significance. Using old iron plates to make signs represents no financial fortune. If the sign still retains iron hole traces, this indicates financial fortune difficulties—these are wealth-leaking holes. Using old materials or termite-eaten wood for signs is greatly inauspicious, representing operators developing economic problems because of employees, resulting in wealth damage or chronic illness affliction. Even if the sign requires just one small iron nail, it must be brand new. If unavoidably using old materials, must clarify material origins. Old materials dismantled from bathrooms, kitchens, or rooms where deaths occurred are all greatly inauspicious—absolutely cannot be casually used. Today we studied shop signage feng shui principles. In future life, if friends prepare to open shops for business, you can offer them suggestions in this area. Alright, today we conclude here.

Hello everyone. Today we study lesson thirty-seven: Shop Door Feng Shui Principles. Speaking of shop doors, this can truly be called the most critical aspect of a shop. Previously we mentioned 'A thousand gold for the door, four taels for the house'—this saying applies not only to residences but also highly applies to shops, companies, and factories. Today let's discuss shop door feng shui principles from the following perspectives. First point: Shop doors should not face oddly-shaped buildings. In feng shui, oddly-shaped buildings mainly refer to chimneys, public toilets, funeral homes, hospitals, etc.—shops doing related businesses are excluded. These are buildings that create psychological discomfort for people, mainly because these buildings produce unfavorable qi. Being constantly in such environments causes mental exhaustion and poor mood. If truly unable to avoid these areas, try to ensure door directions don't face each other. Second, doors shouldn't face taller doors opposite. In shop feng shui, this easily creates 'large door eating small door' situations where one's own shop business gets consumed by others, easily causing poor shop business. Third, main doors cannot face other houses' roof corners nearby—feng shui calls this Sharp Corner Sha, looking like a knife slicing over, unfavorable to shop owners' health, and shop financial fortune won't be very good. From modern analysis, psychologically it's half wall, half sky, creating an unpleasant feeling of being cut in half. Fourth, doors shouldn't directly face tall buildings. When shops are on lower floors facing tall buildings or structures, or doors facing mountains—all are unfavorable. In feng shui this is Mount Tai pressing down, causing breathlessness, great pressure, unfavorable to health and wealth, making career development difficult with no advancement prospects. Should avoid this as much as possible. Fifth, doors shouldn't face foul drainage ditches. Main doors cannot have drainage ditches flowing past, nor can door ground have pits accumulating polluted water. Main doors are like a person's face—if polluted water exists, it gives dirty impressions with poor image. Naturally business is difficult to develop. Shop fronts cannot have round-holed water covers—from feng shui perspective this means wealth leaking, representing earned money quickly departing, though money comes in, it cannot be retained. If round holes are excessively large, even more financial disputes occur. Sixth, diagonal doors are inadvisable. Some shops pursuing uniqueness change shop main doors to diagonal doors—this practice is mostly inadvisable. Diagonal doors' homophone means 'evil doors,' unfavorable to shop business, implying shops don't follow proper paths. If shop main doors' left side has tall buildings or other tall sharp structures, this is also the struggling operations type. Seventh, doors shouldn't directly face elevators. Cannot directly face downward escalators—shop doors facing upward-moving elevators is called 'water pumping,' ascending hall belongs to greatly auspicious imagery indicating prosperous wealth. Conversely situations change, called 'retreating wealth water' also named 'rolling curtain water,' rolling away wealth water before doors, representing non-accumulating wealth imagery. Eighth, straight roads are inadvisable. In shop door feng shui, the most important rule is no road rushing—feng shui calls this 'straight road emptiness,' meaning main doors face directly toward straight roads representing wealth retreat. Gathering qi means gathering wealth; dispersing qi means dispersing wealth. Try to make one's own shop avoid wind openings, also avoid penetrating sha. Above are considerations regarding shop door feng shui. When conducting feng shui surveys, definitely note the above points. Today's lesson concludes here.

Hello everyone. Today we study lesson thirty-eight: Shop Cashier Counter Feng Shui Principles. We know that generally in shops and stores there exists a cashier counter. From a feng shui perspective, the most important aspect of the entire shop or store is actually the cashier counter's position and placement. For instance, some shops' feng shui itself is poor, but skilled masters can make the entire shop experience turnaround through cashier counter placement—this is also frequently occurring. Of course, placing a good cashier counter often still requires on-site investigation before determination, because various factors don't necessarily allow everyone immediate realization. However, through recognizing cashier counter placement taboos and avoiding some unfavorable practices, I believe at minimum the counter placement won't be too poor—can be qualified. First point: Shop cashier counters should be set at wealth positions. If commercial shop shapes are horizontal rectangles or squares with insufficient depth, counters can be placed at the diagonal qi-gathering position inside the entrance—meaning the wealth position. If entering from the left, counters can be set at the right diagonal position; if entering from the right, counters can be set at the left diagonal position. Second point: Shop cashier counters can be set at White Tiger positions. Inside shops looking outward, left is Blue Dragon, right is White Tiger. White Tiger direction is the shop's right side—right side is the immovable direction capable of gathering qi, so placing counters at White Tiger positions can retain wealth. Shops' left side is Blue Dragon direction—Blue Dragon direction has great mobility, not easily gathering wealth, so counters shouldn't be established there. Actually establishing counters at White Tiger positions also adapts to people's right-side walking lifestyle habits. When customers exit from inside shops, due to habits they mostly walk on the right, so placing counters at shops' right front is more convenient for customers. This White Tiger position counter establishment method only suits shops with inward depth and rectangular shapes. Third, counter backs must have support—meaning backs shouldn't be empty. Counter backs are best as walls, cannot have people walking through passages. This way can benefit financial fortune accumulation. For people doing commercial business, interpersonal relationships are most important, definitely requiring backing mountains. If counter backs are very spacious without backing, this will cause shops to lack backing mountains, many problems, plus financial qi easily dissipates. If so, naturally cannot earn money, so must emphasize this. Actually counter backs being empty relates to qi collection in ritual qi. Because financial qi generally comes from the front, so fronts should be empty, backs should be solid. Fourth point: Counter heights should be appropriate. Many people design shop cashier counters very high, believing firstly this maintains confidentiality, secondly others cannot see money so security is high. Actually this thinking is incorrect. In feng shui, counter heights being excessive obstructs prosperous qi and fortune—this is the approach. Because while others cannot see your money, you simultaneously cannot see others' money. For people opening shops doing business, when financial qi is blocked, everything becomes illusory. Counters shouldn't be too high—too high blocks prosperous qi, blocks wealth paths. Counters too low cause financial qi external exposure. Counter heights should be around 1.2 meters. Fifth, counters taboo directly facing mirrors. Mirrors themselves possess reflective functions. If counters directly face mirrors, this easily disturbs shops' treasury qi fields and prosperous qi. Even if shop business is very prosperous, incoming revenues aren't much. So feng shui considers this a format unable to earn big money. So best avoid mirrors directly facing your counter. Sixth, counters taboo directly facing doorways. This situation especially easily appears in small shops—limited area with doorways right there. In such cases best use door curtains or screens as obstructions, or respectfully install Guan Di deity for resolution. Originally in feng shui, directly facing doorways represents formats directly receiving incoming airflow rushing sha. If counters symbolizing treasury locations directly face doorways, this easily causes financial qi dissipation, very unfavorable to wealth accumulation. Seventh point: Counter decorative items should combine owners' destiny preferences and taboos. Frequently seeing counters displaying beckoning cats, greenery and other decorations—actually these decorative items carry great significance. For instance, if owners' destinies originally taboo Wood yet greenery is placed on counters, this is very unfavorable to financial fortune. Conversely, if owners' destinies favor Wood and greenery is placed, this greatly benefits their financial fortune. Eighth is counters should be bright. Counters are shops' small treasuries, representing financial fortune. Counter illumination being bright can avoid evil sha proliferation. Wealth gods favor visiting, financial fortune progressively improves, relatively troublemaking incidents also decrease. Ninth point: Counters should display wealth-attracting auspicious objects. Many shops borrowing feng shui magnetic fields to stimulate prosperous wealth will choose to enshrine wealth-attracting auspicious objects, placing wealth-attracting auspicious objects can absorb wealth qi from eight directions entering, forming wealth-gathering prosperous-wealth formats. Tenth: Counters taboo clutter and filth. Clutter and filth are financial fortune's great taboos, so counters definitely must maintain tidiness, cannot directly face or back against restrooms, also cannot be positioned at kitchen exhaust vents. Alright, today we summarized cashier counters from ten aspects regarding feng shui—everyone in practical application note flexible usage. Right heart right mindfulness, fortune and wisdom both arrive.

Hello everyone. Today we study lesson thirty-nine: Automobile Feng Shui. Speaking of automobiles for current families, it can be said almost every household has them—they are our current primary transportation tools. Automobiles can be understood as mobile rooms, and automobiles also seriously affect people's travel safety. As automobiles become increasingly common, automobile feng shui issues become increasingly important. Automobile feng shui mainly manifests in the following aspects: First, automobile color. Second, automobile exterior shape. Third, automobile ornaments and feng shui displays. Fourth, license plate numbers. First let's discuss automobile colors. We learned in theory courses about Five Elements and five colors correspondence—different automobile colors possess different Five Element attributes. Through this knowledge point we easily know Metal is white series, Wood is green series, Water is black-blue series, Fire is red-purple series, Earth is yellow series. For example, if your Five Elements lack Wood, then green-cyan automobiles and black-blue automobiles suit you better, because green automobiles belong to Wood, black-blue automobiles belong to Water—according to Five Element generation-restraint principles, Wood helps Wood, Water generates Wood. According to Five Element generation-restraint principles: Five Elements mutual generation—Metal generates Water, Water generates Wood, Wood generates Fire, Fire generates Earth, Earth generates Metal. Five Elements mutual restraint—Metal restrains Wood, Wood restrains Earth, Earth restrains Water, Water restrains Fire, Fire restrains Metal. Either select colors corresponding to one's lacking Five Elements, or select colors generating one's lacking Five Elements, but cannot select colors restraining one's lacking Five Elements. Then let's examine automobile exterior shapes. Different exterior shapes we also categorize into Five Element attributes. Metal-attribute cars have angular exteriors. Wood-attribute cars are slender type automobiles. Water-attribute cars have many round elements, like Beetles. Fire-attribute cars have pointed elements like streamlined sports cars. Finally Earth-attribute cars have many square elements, like Cherokees. Besides exterior shapes, there are automobile ornaments and feng shui displays—these also carry feng shui significance. First, ornaments should preferably not be too long, otherwise they'll obstruct vision. Material and color aspects should preferably conform to car owners' lacking Five Elements. Current ornament materials are mainly wooden, metallic, crystal—wooden naturally belongs to Wood, metallic belongs to Metal, crystal belongs to Water. Color Five Elements were mentioned above, won't repeat. Feng shui display varieties are very numerous—broadly speaking, zodiac and deity images predominate. Zodiac-type feng shui displays have many misunderstandings—not displaying whatever zodiac one belongs to. For instance, if you're Dragon, and coincidentally it's Dragon year, coincidentally personal birth zodiac is Dragon—if car interior again hangs Dragon ornaments, this forms rushing and punishment, easily causing collision incidents. Besides this, also cannot display zodiacs conflicting with one's own zodiac—can consider displaying zodiacs harmonizing with personal zodiacs. Zodiac conflicts: Rat-Horse conflict, Ox-Sheep conflict, Tiger-Monkey conflict, Rabbit-Rooster conflict, Dragon-Dog conflict, Snake-Pig conflict. Zodiac harmonies: Monkey-Rat-Dragon harmonize, Pig-Rabbit-Sheep harmonize, Tiger-Horse-Dog harmonize, Snake-Rooster-Ox harmonize. We systematically learned these in the Twelve Earthly Branches—everyone can extrapolate. Deity images require attention to placement direction—generally deity images should face oneself. However, beckoning cats and similar items still face outward—facing oneself takes one's own financial fortune out. Some cartoon characters or sword-type displays are best not placed. Perfume bottle shapes are also very important—should choose round, square forms, avoid selecting angular ones like diamond, rhombus shapes with various angles pointing toward oneself, easily forming Sharp Corner Sha and Light Sha, so car interiors should preferably not display these. Finally let's discuss license plate numbers and feng shui. We learned in theory courses about Hetu numbers: 1-6 belongs to Water, 2-7 belongs to Fire, 3-8 belongs to Wood, 4-9 belongs to Metal, 5-0 belongs to Earth. For instance, someone's destiny lacks Metal-Water—1649 this plate number suits them relatively well. If destiny lacks Earth, then 5830 is relatively suitable, because Wood generates Earth, Earth helps Earth. Try to avoid license plate number Five Element mutual restraint, like 4839 Metal restraining Wood. Please note the above refers to two-digit combinations, like 38 is Wood, 49 is Metal—the above 4839 is Metal restraining Wood. However most situations don't follow this combination pattern. Overall, although automobile feng shui has various taboos, car selection freedom is still quite large—perhaps our beloved car in some aspect's Five Elements doesn't suit us, but can be neutralized through other aspects. So regarding automobile feng shui, we should still maintain careful, flexible, cautious attitudes. Alright, today's automobile feng shui lesson concludes here.
