Recharge and Reboot your Feng Shui luck for the Year of Ox

2021 YEAR OF OX


SOLAR VS. LUNAR NEW YEAR
Some people are confused by the Solar New Year and Chinese Lunar New Year.  Solar calendar is based on the relative location of sun to the earth.  Solar New Year day is pretty consistently arriving on around February 4th and sometimes on the 3rd (立春 Spring begins or Li-chun).  Feng Shui, QMDJ, Bazi and many Chinese metaphysics systems are based on the solar calendar.  For 2021 Year of Ox, the Solar New Year will start at 23:01 on February 3.
The Chinese Lunar Calendar is based on the relative location of the moon to the earth.  The Lunar New Year day changes every year.  Chinese New Year celebration is based on the lunar calendar.  For 2021 Year of Ox, the Chinese Lunar New Year will start on February 12.
RECHARGE AND REBOOT FENG SHUI LUCK
2020 Year of Rat has been a tough year for most earthlings due to the pandemic.  Finally, the long anticipated Year of Ox will arrive at 11:01 pm on February 3, 2021.  Here are something you can do before the new year arrives to enhance your luck
"Recharge" means replenishing the qi or energy of your house after a year of operation.  "Reboot" means restarting a new Feng Shui process because you feel your luck is less than satisfactory or even horrible.
Below are methods to recharge or reboot the Feng Shui energies of your house in the last day of the lunar year.

RECHARGE HOUSE FENG SHUI (do these in last day of the lunar year)
1.  Do a house cleaning, remove/ replace or repair broken or damaged items.
2.  Cut or remove dead leaves/ branches of any house plants.  If you want to add new plants, new year eve or new year day is the best time to do it.
3.  Move your Feng Shui animals like ki-lun, calabash, coins-salt water, water fountain and the like to the locations for the Year of Ox (see my previous post on Grand Duke for exact locations).  Do this part on Feb. 3, before 23:01.

REBOOT HOUSE FENG SHUI
Do the #1- 3 in the "Recharge house Feng Shui" section, PLUS:
1.  At the last night of the year, turn on all the lights in the house and let it on until morning.
2.  Find any portable light source (LED lights, light beam and the light) to illuminate/ flash any dark space/ corner in your house, including the underside of your bed, to drive out negative or dark energies.
3.  At mid-night (00:01), turn on any fans, open all windows and doors to force all indoor qi (energy of the Year of Rat) out of the house and draw in new year energy (do NOT do this if your luck is good in 2020).  Close the doors and windows when you feel the air inside your house is fresh.   If you live in a cold region, you can light incenses or sage to fume the house instead. 
4.  If you feel your personal luck was very bad in the Year of Rat, you can cleanse your aura by having another person sweeping sage or incense smoke around your body.  Alternatively, you can light a bonfire and have your own family sit around the fire to cleanse the aura of your whole family.
"ROBBING" THE WEALTH ENERGY OF A BANK
Water also symbolizes wealth in Chinese belief and Feng Shui.  On the second day of the Chinese Lunar New Year (Feb. 13, 2021), go to a bank of any financial institution with a small bottle, drink their free coffee/ mineral water (if available) and take a bottle of their water from their water cooler/ water fountain/ water tap home.  Pour this bank water into a bowl with a copper or silver coin in the bottom.  Then put this coin-water bowl in the wealth position of your home (search my blog for "wealth position") to enhance wealth.  You may do this on Feb. 12 if your local bank close on Saturdays.
"Ken, can I still use these methods if I miss the last day of the year?"
Yes, wait 360+ days till Feb. 1, 2022 for the Year of Tiger to do it.  But you can still use these methods in any day for cleansing.  The effects are just not as potent as doing it in the last day of the year.

Happy Year of Ox!

Supercharge your kid's academic performance (Part 2) 读书风水2

Last week we have talked about academic positions based on 8-Mansions and Flying Star Feng Shui.  Now we will discuss academic positions based on the birth year stem of your kids.  This is a more personalized method of locating academic positions which does NOT change with time.

"Stems" and "branches" are the "ABC" of Chinese metaphysics.  There are 10 stems and 12 branches.  Most of us probably are familiar with "branches" because it also represents the 12 Chinese zodiac animals.  But in our case here, we look for the stem of the birth year.  Below is a simple method of finding out the birth year stem of your kid and the respective academic position:

For example, if your kid was born in 1991, check the table above for the row with "1", his birth year is "Xin" and his academic position is in the North.  Please note that birthday before February 4 is counted as previous year.  For instance, someone born in January 22, 1991 is considered born in 1990 based on the Chinese calendar. 

Between the 3 methods of locating academic positions, which one is the best?  According to Feng Shui people, the best would be the one based on the house sitting/facing, followed by Flying Star method and  the personalized one.   

It is not unusual to find your ideal location is occupied by a bathroom or kitchen or simply a missing corner.  You may use the second best location and so on.

Finally, avoid a house with bathroom in southeast sector because it is the academic location based on the Bagua or 8-Trigrams.  This is called "polluting Wen-chang".  Your kids will have problems in school.  You need to consult a Feng Shui practitioner to correct the problem.

If you want to know more about academic Feng Shui, the course below has more coverage on this topic:

Supercharge your kid's academic performance (Part 1) 读书风水1

With the current COVID-19 pandemic, most schools teach students through online learning.  Will your kids lose competitive advantages to other better equipped or smarter classmates?  Can you do something to enhance the learning capacity of your kids?

Feng Shui may help because there is an "academic position"  (Wen-chang 文昌)in Feng Shui.  Putting your kid in this position to do their study will enhance his/ her learning capacity and IQ.

There are more than three ways to locate this academic position in your home.  This article shows two first.  The article next week will disclose the third one and which method is more effective.

I.  ACADEMIC POSITION BASED ON HOUSE SITTING/FACING
This method is based on Bazhai or 8-Mansions Feng Shui.  First you need to figure out the "sitting" and "facing" directions of your home.

The main door of your house is the "facing direction".  The opposite side of your main door is the "sitting" of the house.  Below are the "academic position" (AP for short) of:
  1. Sitting North facing South, the AP is in NE
  2. Sitting South facing North, the AP is in South
  3. Sitting East facing West, the AP is in NW
  4. Sitting West facing East, the AP is in SW
  5. Sitting SE facing NW, the AP is SW
  6. Sitting NW facing SE, the AP is in East
  7. Sitting NE facing SW, the AP is in North
  8. Sitting SW facing NE, the AP is in West
II.  ACADEMIC POSITION BASED ON ANNUAL ACADEMIC STAR
This method is based on the Annual chart of Flying Star Feng Shui.  Find the location of annual 4-green star (best) or 1-water star and put your kid there to study to boost academic performance.  You may find a Flying Star calculator or following the following table to find the 4 and 1 star locations.   Remember these stars change location every year.


Part II of this post will show you a personalized academic position for your kid.  See you next time!
