Good day to everyone!!

We are entering into the Chinese solar calendar of the Yin Water Goat 癸未 month from the dawn on 7 Jul (Mon).

It is considered as entering the late-Summer season.

📅Month Overview – 7 Jul to 7 Aug (☀️solar calendar)

Goat is of the Yin Earth element on the surface and contains Yin Wood and Fire within.

So none of the elements found in Goat supports or works with the Yin Water that sits right on top. With the Goat at the bottom controlling the Yin Water on the top, this can mean a month of uprising.

This Yin Water 癸 in certain condition may transform into Fire, which will generate the Goat beneath, and also draw the Fire hidden in the Goat.

Goat’s apparent Earth can be transformed into Wood or Fire in specific conditions.

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

⚠️Days to Take Note

Avoid making hasty decisions 月破
Jul – 7 (Mon), 19 (Sat) and 31 (Thu)

Avoid getting into conflict 月刑
Jul – 16 (Wed) and 28 (Mon)

Avoid getting sabotaged or subject of gossips 月害
Jul – 18 (Fri) and 30 (Wed)

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 Star 2 Sickness and Annual Flying Star 7 Thievery both come to the North – this can mean loss made due to poor planning or due to literal poor health/alertness.

The Monthly Flying Star 5 Misfortune and Annual Flying Star 1 Officer both come to the Southeast – this can mean your fame and power is getting a tinge of unexpected turn of event.

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

🎇Folk Commemoration Days (🌙lunar calendar)

27 Jun 六月初三 (Fri)
Commemoration Day for Skanda Deva 韋馱天誕
A very well-known Guardian Deva in the Chinese Mahayana Buddhism. Other than known for being steadfast in guarding places that worships the Buddha and practice the Buddha’s Teachings, He is also known for responding quickly to protect ernest practitioner who gets into a dangerous situation.

30 Jun / 1 Jul 六月初六/七 (Mon/Tue)
Opening of the Heaven’s Gates 天門開
There are a few folk tales of what this day is about but in general it is believed that it is like a ‘second’ commemoration day for the Jade Emperor and making prayers on this days will be amplified. But why the 2 days you may ask? One saying is that prayers made on the first day could only be done by government officials and the second day is for rest of us. Another saying is that the actual Opening of the Heaven’s Gate is the midnight between the 2 days.

I don’t really practice making prayers on this day so I can’t attest how good it is. But, base on the stars found in the almanac, 30 Jun is not favourable to make prayers as the inauspicious stars outweigh the auspicious ones.

13 Jul 六月十九 (Sun)
Enlightenment Day for Guanyin 觀音成道日
An important Mahayana Bodhisattva that was absorbed in Chinese folklore and made wide and deep influence.

Good day to everyone!!

We are entering into the Chinese solar calendar of the Yang Water Horse 壬午 month from the evening on 5 Jun (Thu).

It is considered as entering the mid-Summer season.

📅Month Overview – 5 Jun to 7 Jul (☀️solar calendar)

Horse is of the Yang Fire element on the surface and contains Yin Fire and Earth within.

The apparent Yang and inherent Yin combination can mean intricacy of matters – what seems to be may not be what it actually is.

With the Yang Water sitting on the top of the Horse, this means a month of self-regulation, self-restrain. The Yang Water also has a hidden combination with the Yin Fire contained in the Horse – this can mean the self-regulation will not be radical till the extinction of the Yin Fire.

This Yang Water 壬 in certain condition may transform into Wood, which will generate the Horse beneath, can be understood as being provided.

Horse is one of the two zodiacs that is stubborn as it stays put with its Fire energies and can have others involved to transformed into Fire instead.

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

The Monthly Flying Star 5 Misfortune and Annual Flying Star 9 Happiness both come to the East – this can mean joy begets sorrow.

🎇Folk Commemoration Days (🌙lunar calendar)

31 May 五月初五 (Sat)
Dumpling / Dragon Boat Festival
A very well-known Chinese cultural festival to commemorate the story of loyalty that involves eating glutinouns rice dumplings and paddling boats for competition. There is a practice of collecting Noon-time Water on this day. It is a believed that the water collected at this timing is purest and possessed most-Yang energy. And this water can be use for cleansing and other blessing purpose.

I personally do not subscribe to this but if you do, please note that the water has to be collected from a natural source, like stream, spring, waterfall of sorts, well; and not from tap water.

5 Jun 五月初十 (Thu)
Commemoration Day for Earth Deity 土神誕
This is less known day to commemorate the Earth Deity. Likely more for the Canton area since it is found in the Cantonese Almanac.

6 Jun 五月十一 (Fri)
Commemoration Day for City Deity 城隍誕
This day commemorates the City Deity. Often misunderstood as a netherworld deity, the City Deity’s role is to protect the living humans that live within his’ realm. From some foklore perspective, City Deity actively has his warrant officers patrolling regularly to remove harmful, wandering spirits.

16 Jun 五月十六 (Wed)
Commemoration Day for “Creator Buddha” 天地造化之神如來誕
This is the folklore version of a “creator deity” latching onto the Buddhist-pantheon. This is not commonly practiced. And usually the statue of Sakyamuni Buddha is used to represent this “Buddha”. I include here more from the perspective of a trivia than any actual encouragement for you to worship. Since Buddha had dismissed the existence of any creator in his teachings.

Good afternoon!

We are entering into the Chinese solar calendar of the Yin Metal Snake 辛巳 month from the mid-afternoon on 5 May (Mon).

It is considered as entering the Summer season.

📅Month Overview – 5 May to 5 Jun (☀️solar calendar)

Snake is of the Fire element on the surface and contains Yang Fire, Metal and Earth within.

On the apparent, it seems like Yin Metal is sitting on trouble with the Fire controlling it, however, in a more precise comprehension, the Fire could be understood as further casting the Yin Metal to something more delicate.

It might come across as nitpicking, but it can also be seen as holding you to a higher standard.

However, if your natal chart already carries strong Fire, then it can mean impatience or being perfectionist till it isn’t practical.

This Yin Metal 辛 in certain condition may transform into Water and this can be understood as turning the tide, as now it’s the Top controlling the Bottom instead.

The Snake 巳 in certain conditions may transform into either Metal or Water, making it possible to be a volatile month.

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

⚠️Days to Take Note

Avoid making hasty decisions 月破
May – 6 (Tue), 18 (Sun) and 30 (Fri)

Avoid making into conflict 月刑
May – 15 (Thu) and 27 (Tue)

Avoid getting sabotaged or subject of gossips 月害
May – 9 (Fri), and 21 (Wed)
Jun – 2 (Tue)

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

The Monthly Flying Star 2 Sickness and Annual Flying Star 5 Misfortune both come to the Northeast.

I believe the combination of the Stars’ names are self-explanatory.

If you are active in the Northeast sector at work or home, move to other sectors in that space every 3 hours for 15 minutes to break the momentum.
