Time of Year for Enhancing Heaven – May 1st

April 30th, 2009

Throughout the year there are particular days or periods of time when enhancing the related area of the Bagua will give you a better outcome. Around May 1st that area is Heaven/Helpful People. If you don’t know where this area is in your home you can read about it here.

This area represents the support you receive from Heaven, in the sense that you receive from Heaven whatever it is you have given out. So for example, if you are generous of your time, people will be helpful back.

Heaven is a Metal Element area and is supported by metal objects such as filing cabinets, statues, gold, silver, and images of people who help you and those you help such as charities. Although you don’t want this area to be too yang, so some soft furnishings are also recommended.

It is also related to those in your life who have died. It is good to have images of the deceased here or even a shrine where you can place images of the deceased or their ashes.

Classic requirements for siting a home.

April 17th, 2009

When looking at locations for a new home or a site where you might want to build, you first want to ask yourself what is the condition of the neighborhood. What kind of impression do you get, do you feel safe when walking around, is the area well maintained, is the plant life healthy, the hedges trim and there birds in the trees?

The shape of the site should be regular (although a triangular shape is out of the question) with the land being either flat or slope gently upward from the street. The ideal placement of buildings around the site is for there to be either raised land such as a hill or buildings behind the site, while the site itself should not be on a street corner, but in between other sites so that as you look at the site from the street there is a building to the right. If possible there should also be one to the left as well (rather than an empty plot), but this building must not be higher than the right hand building. Likewise any building across the street should be lower or of the same height as the left hand building.

Your Ki Prediction for 5 April to 5 May 2009

Don’t know what number you are? Find it here

1 Water people are now in a 3 Wood month, a far more supportive month than March and where you can expect increased energy levels and renewed inspiration. Remember to take some time out when you can to avoid burning out.

2 Earth people are experiencing the gentle energy of 4 Wood, so stick to your plans and watch out for bouts of moodiness, you can always ask for help once you realise you can’t do everything yourself.

3 Wood people move into a 5 Earth month. Opportunities will come your way as long as you don’t travel away for too long. Take plenty of exercise to burn off any frustration.

A move up the promotion ladder or raise in status is on the cards for 4 Wood’s in this 6 Metal month. Take care not to let the result of your hard work go to your head, and instead focus on what you can do for others.

5 Earth people are in for a more relaxing month as they move into 7 Metal. You can party a little but don’t be fooled by your capacity to get away with overindulgence.

If things didn’t work out last month for 6 metal people, this 8 Earth month provides you with the chance to work out what went wrong with your plans and to redefine you goals.

7 Metal people are in for an enjoyable 9 Fire month. However, at times you might feel the heat and overworked, so don’t expect to be in control all of the time. Investigate any offers carefully or your might really get burned.

The nature of 8 Earth people is that of a mountain. This 1 Water month may at times feel like an emotional waterfall that wears away at your steadfast exterior, but if you are willing to look, there are jewels to be discovered under the surface.

9 Fire people move into another slow month, this time it’s 2 Earth. Focus on the small details that you need to clear up, and don’t show off or you might put off potential allies.
