Keeping the post to the point – a frequent question receive recently (so decided to pen it down the solution for those who have affinity with this article).
Taking an example of Yang Fire (丙) Day-Master and 7-Killing as Yang Water (壬) and in a year where Tai Sui (太岁) induces Yang Water to cause legal, gossips (口舌官非) and challenges to the chart owner.
Solution: Using a 24 mountain feng shui compass, determine the position of Yang Water in the house / apartment. Examine that area and remove those item that directly / indirectly produce Yang Water (i.e. Yin Metal – Jewelry, key chain and coin etc or Water related such as water dispenser, diffusers). And, do this before the Tai Sui (太岁) changes – before Start of Spring (立春).
There is another method that uses personal life Gua number + 3×3 Grid and 6-Kins, slightly more complex than the above discussed.
Property (all the while) has been a hot topic in my locality; often view as an aspect of wealth accmulation, asset growth and retirement planning. Having said that, property is a fixed asset and should be subjected to depreciation. Most of the time when owner purchasing a property, they (often) have in mind the expected growth and return; and when it comes down to the ground on selling off the fixed assets (property), owner will then need to face the stress, headwind, obstacles and compromises they have to accept in order to proceed with the sale of property / apartment.
From a metaphysic perspective, there are a few things propety owner can do to help with the flow and liquidation of this fixed asset.
Using flying stars – all property / apartment has a flying star chart, within the flying star chart there is a mountain star. To use this, choose a month (higher / mid-term) or day (lower / short term) star that clashes or fuyin with the mountain star of the property / apartment.
Using a day that clashes the owner’s direct resource element (bazi). or a day that produce the buyer’s direct resource element (bazi).
Using an hour in QiMen that hour has Life Door clashes Chief + position is opposite between inner and outer plate + 甲子 produces the owner year of birth.
And if selling the property / apartment for reasons related to deceased, divorce, job loss or any “negative” events, be very sure to do space cleansing (i.e. smudging) to dispel lingering negative energy before your first appointment with buyer / agents.
Water Tiger or Ren Yin （壬寅） Tai Sui （太岁）was born in （鄂县） County in the Yuan Dynasty, named He Ben （贺贲）, also known as He Yi （贺谔）. He Ben is a talented strategist, thrive in offensive battle. He was (later) was in charge of Army of Jingzhao. When he died, he was posthumously named Duke Yong （雍国公）and given the title of Zhenxian （贞献）; and later worship by common folks of that region.
The Chinese 12 Zodiacs animals are just symbolic representation of the seasonal / cyclical changes reference between the Sun and the Earth. As the Sun moves around the Galaxy in the Universe, it is represented by one of the sixty Tai Sui.
In 2022, the Sun position is at Ren Yin （壬寅）it has a direct influence on Monkey or Shen （申）, Snake or Si （巳）, Pig or Hai （亥）.
To the Monkey, it represent a direct clash, a change in environment, moving house, changing job opportunities. It also represent a difference in viewpoint with your superior or seniors.
To the Snake, it represent a harm or affliction, direct towards health, mental wellbeing and interpersonal relationships. As well as doing things or eating (drinking) in excess.
To the Pig, it a broken sign, usually in areas of the mind, self talk and goals. This aspect also can be link to self sabotaging behavior (i.e. thing are running smoothly, suddenly you decide to change course of actions for no good reasons, end up hurting relationship and deviation from the expected outcome).
Which area the clash, harm, affliction and broken depends on the pillars.
The 4 aspect based on the 4 Pillars (BAZI): 年 Year embodies externalities, government, authority, social relationship, superiors, bosses, grandparents, uncle’s, aunties, in-laws and parents. 月 Month encapsulate work environment, colleagues, peers, friends, siblings relationship and a bit of family / household matters (i.e. Living Room / Space) 日 Day focus on primarily family environment, spouse relationship (i.e. behind closed doors). It also includes self as well as personal values. 时 Hours deals with personal aspirations, dreams hopes and fear. Skills & Talents. It also encompasses offsprings and children relationship or matters.
注意 (Alert): The cutover point for TaiSui is always at the Start of Spring （立春）, and not Chinese New Year.
Activating the South (Palace 9, Wu 午 position) and Northeast (Palace 8, Chou 丑 position) sector would be a good help to induce the lucky stars as well as the Zodiac elemental combination so as to reduces these clash, harm and afflictions. Picking a good date would +points in term of higher energy activation level.

Timing is a critical aspect in Feng Shui, as it brings the necessary Qi flow to overcome certain ills predominantly present in the residence or alignment of positive energy to bring about goals and outcomes in our lives.
When the earth rotates around the sun every year, 12 months and 24 seasons are marked out; and when the moon rotates around the earth, similarily 24 position are marked out. The ancients based on the concept that earth is static, they derive a system of 24 possible location for the sun and moon. Hence, giving rise to ” The Great Sun and Moon Formula”.
In later development, comes the 3 combination (三合) and 6 combination (六合) based on Earth Branches are add in to ‘enhance’ the usage of this formula. And it is believe that when the Sun or Moon arrives at the sitting location of the property, renovation could be done at afflicted sector. Affliction such as Grand Duke, 5 Yellow Stars, 3 Killing, Wu Ji Earth Sha (戊己都天煞) can be harmonised. And in the 3 combination (三合) approach, it is believe the other 4 sectors that are associate to the facing and sitting (2 each) could also be use (https://www.fengshuied.com/sun-arrives-at-the-mountain).
As we move into the season of Minor Cold (6 Jan till 20 Jan, and if the property is sitting or facing N3 (癸), we can use this season to enhance the house energy (3 & 6 Combination are disregarded). Activities such as smudging, space cleansing and activation of monthly stars to bring goals / intention into fruition can be considered.
In the case of renovation, earth breaking or wall hacking and it is in an afflicted sector, receiving the sun energy on sitting or facing does not automatically harmonize or cancel out the affliction; other Date Selection methodology are still necessary.
Up to this point, you will realize Practitioners and Masters brag about The Great Sun Formula and downplay the Moon Formula, and if you are using Sun Formula and has some awareness of Western Astrology you would realize a conflicting issue in terms of the Sun actual position is in the Ecliptic Map. As well as questioning the Great Sun results.
In Western Astrology, the twelve constellations of the zodiac lie along the plane of the Ecliptic Map. The Ecliptic Map is defined by the circular path of the Sun across the sky as seen from Earth. (And the Sun Formula seemingly is moving anticlockwise).
It is because of this predictable cycle that the journey of the Sun through the zodiac was used by ancient cultures to determine the time of year. In this way, the so-called cardinal constellations of the zodiac (Aries, Cancer, Libra and Capricorn) mark the beginning of the four seasons. The Sun enters these constellations on the first days of spring, summer, autumn and winter respectively.
The Moon Formula holds the secret in application (Not the Sun). It is innately aligned with the 24 Season and Western Astrology. As the sun passed through each Constellation that particular period is designated for that Constellation (i.e. Gemini in May/ Jun). Hence, it might be the Real Sun-Position is within the Moon Formula.
In layman terms, we can make use of Western Astrology Constellation or the Moon Formula to do Feng Shui activation or harmonize afflictions. For example, now is the period of Minor Cold (小寒), the property with N3/NE1 (癸/丑) Sitting or S3/SW1 (丁/未) Facing can make use of this season to do Activation or Harmonisation.
The Moon Formula is widely available on the internet. Go search it up, apply and feel the results.
For those who gravitate towards research or academically gifted, it would be beneficial to point out to you that (whether) it is The Great Sun or Gentle Moon; this ring is intentionally aligned with the San He (三合) compass’s Man and Heaven Plate/ Ring.
P.S: Only Sitting and Facing of the property are considered, the 3 Combo (三合) and 6 Combo (六合) add-ons are disregarded.
Citrine belongs to the family of quartz and is consider rare in nature, its color caused it to be confused with topaz. People have been using quartz as jewelry since ancient times. The Egyptians gathered striped agates and use them as talisman, ancient Greeks use rock crystal ornament, Romans wore rings set with Amethyst.
Today, in modern times, its attractive color, durability and affordability makes it the top-selling yellow-to-orange gem (Refractive index: 1.544 to 1.553) and Mohs Hardness of 7.
In the contemporary market, Citrine’s most popular shade is an earthy, deep, brownish or reddish orange.
Since natural Citrine is rare, most of the Citrine on the market is the result of heat treatment, which causes some amethyst to change color from undesirable pale violet to an attractive yellow. The amethyst’s original hue can determine the richness of the resulting Citrine yellow color.
Natural Citrine links or work with manifestation, imagination, and personal will. It also represent the power of the sun, it is warm and comforting, energizing, and life-giving. It stimulates the chakras like the sunlight of spring, clearing the mind and stirring the soul to action.
Its frequency awakens creativity and imagination and sustains the process of transforming dreams and wishes into tangible form. With its pure yellow energy, Citrine encourages the fullness of life, fresh beginnings, and new pursuits.
Natural Citrine does not hold or accumulate negative energy, but rather transmutes, dissipates, and grounds it, making it extremely protective for the environment. It works out problems on both the physical and subtle levels, transforming negative thoughts and feelings into positive ones. It is one of only two crystals on Earth that never needs to be cleared or cleansed. The other is Kyanite.
Citrine is a transparent, yellow variety of Quartz, ranging in color from pale to golden yellow, honey, or almost brown, and may contain rainbow or sparkle inclusions. The name comes from the French word citron, meaning “lemon”. It was used as a gem in Greece as far back as 300 B.C., and because of its color, is sometimes mistakenly referred to as Gold Topaz, Madeira or Spanish Topaz, or Safranite.
Citrine is also known as the Success Stone or Merchant’s Stone. It will manifest success and abundance in your business or career. Besides wearing CItrine as a jewelery, we can also place it on our personal wealth sector in own room or on the house wealth sector in the living room.
There are several ways to derive the wealth sector, namely: 1. Using 8 Mansion Method 2. Using Personal Wealth Sector in QiMen 3. Using Annual QiMen Approach 4. Using 10 Deity (Direct / Indirect Wealth) in BaZi 5. Using Wealth Phrase in 12 Cycle 6. Using Gua Number + Flying Stars
Citrine being yellow in color is related to Earth Element in Chinese Metaphysics. The stone stimulates digestion, the spleen, and the pancreas. It helps keep skin, nails, hair healthy and is good for relieving skin irritations and allergies, especially those caused by food.
Citrine’s radiant yellow energy activates, opens, and energizes the Sacral Chakras. The Sacral Chakra is located below the belly button. It controls the flow of energy and is the center of gravity of the body and the life force. It controls the flow of information to and fro between body and the mind.
Location: Below the navel Colour: Orange Organs:Urogenital system Identity: Pleasure & Inner Child Functions:Enjoyment of life, creativity, pleasures, desires, sexuality, emotions, inner child connection Balanced Energy: Creative, emotionally balanced, open to one’s emotions, balanced sexuality
The Lower Emotional Body (connected to the sacral chakra). The lower emotional body follows the general shape of the physical and etheric bodies, but it is more amorphous and fluid, and it extends outwardly by a few centimetres. This body does not duplicate the physical body; it is more like an energy field. It contains moving energy “blobs” or “clouds” of different colours, each being felt as a specific emotion. These colours may vary from bright clear hues to dark muddy ones, depending on the type of emotions.
Annual Wealth Sector (禄财位) sometimes refer to as 流年財神方. This tradditional way of calculation primarily focus on the Heavenly Stem (天干) of TaiSui (太岁) and plot the 12 Cycle or 12 Growth Phrases (十二長生).
For 2022 (壬寅), the wealth sector would be at position of Pig (亥) and has an annual star 6 in that palace. This is the area of the property/ apartment that should be more frequently use. We can use this area for financial planning and execution, goal setting or placement of enhancers (i.e Water, Crystal, Chimes, Music, Fan, Lighting, Diffuser).
Noteworthy would be 2022 the 3 Killing zone is at the North sector (approx. 313 – 45 degree), this kind of reduces the efficacy of the Wealth Sector. However, If we understand 3 Killing zone sufficiently, we would still be able to capitalised the potential of this sector to activate the Wealth Sector.
