Almanac Forecast from 7 Nov to 7 Dec (solar calendar) and 9th crossing into 10th Lunar Month

Good day to everyone!

My apologies for sharing this forecase late for this month.

We have entered into the Chinese solar calendar of the Yin Fire Pig month 丁亥月 from noon on 7 Nov (Fri).

It is the beginning of the Winter season.

📅Month Overview – 7 Nov to 7 Dec (☀️solar calendar)

Heavenly Stem and Earth Branch Interaction 干支作用

Heavenly Stem is Yin Fire 丁 and can transform into Wood in specific conditions.

Earthly Branch is Pig 亥 is considered as a Yin Earthly Branch, however, when considering the Heavenly Stems found within, it is Yang Water as the primary and accompanies Yang Wood and Yang Earth. There are two specific conditions that can have Pig’s primary Yang Water to be transformed into Wood.

Changes in your courses of action can take place if the above transformations do take place in your personal Ba Zi natal chart.

On the surface it looks like the Pig’s Yang Water controls the Yin Fire sitting over it. However, it is not simply Water controlling the Fire, because in the Heavely Stem Dynamics 天干作用, Yin Fire binds with Yang Water and can tranform into Wood under certain circumstances.

This can be understood as you will find yourself in a situation or observing someone else that is fighting against a softer power or influence over you persistently.

12 Deities of Linked Palaces 串宮十二神

As I am practicing a new Ba Zi technique, I have come across this interesting way for monthly forecast. Thought it may be of interest, hence include here for reference.

For Yang Fire Dog month 丙戌月, the 12 Deities of Linked Palaces comination is:

Herald over Devourer 青龍坐大耗

Herald denotes documentation, examintation, celebration or even benefactors. Devourer can mean exhaustion and can be to the extend of hurting the core.This combination can mean way more effort or resources is spent on documentation; or unexpected spendings occur for celebration or buying gifts to people you care about.

Do note that 12 Deities of Linked Palaces is calculate based on the current year, hence the monthly forecast can be understood as what happens externally. How it manifest exactly and to what intensity has to study with your natal chart to understand the overall interactions.

⚠️Days to Take Note

Avoid making hasty decisions 月破
Nov – 12 (Wed) and 24 (Mon)
Dec – 6 (Sat)

Avoid getting into conflict 月刑
Nov – 14 (Fri) and 26 (Wed)

Avoid getting sabotaged or subject of gossips 月害
Nov – 11 (Tue) and 23 (Sun)
Dec – 5 (Fri)

The above days were flagged based solely on Almanac considerations. Those who had your Ba Zi natal chart read by me likely have other dates to take note.

🧭Feng Shui Caution

Please take not that the negative Flyings Stars combinations is more likely to manifest either your annual Ba Zi trend is not good or have specfic combinations in your Ba Zi chart that matches similar or equal types of events and if you are active in that directional sector over 3 hours consecutively.

The Monthly Flying Stars overlaps with the Annual Flying Stars. This itself may be understood as progresses all slow throughout and be mindful of procastination.

The Monthly Flying Star 2 Sickness and Annual Flying Star 2 Sickness both come to the Center – this can be read as difficulties in making something whole. So if you have project that is due this month, this can be a challenge.

The Monthly Flying Star 5 Misfortune and Annual Flying Star 5 Misfortune both come to the Northeast – this can be read as unexpected challenge that includes accidents may incur. .

To minimise the negative manifestation, you can move to other sectors in that space every 3 hours for 15 minutes to break the momentum.

🥳Announcement!!!

I may have a pop-up booth in the last weekend of November in Tampines. Stay tune to my social media for updates.

I am generally looking for long term pop-up booths or good co-working office space.

WA me if you know good spaces!

I am not a registered counsellor, but I am considering opening mentoring sessions for individuals who are seeking a safe and non-judgmental space to process their thoughts and emotions.

This initiative allows me to support others while continuing to apply and practise the counselling theories and related skills that I have acquired and am still developing.

There will be a fee involved, although it will not be the same as the rate for my astrology consultations. I welcome any feedback on this idea.

Best regards,
