When can we say goodbye to COVID-19?

It has been 2 years since COVID-19 shows up and makes our lives miserable.  Most of us want to know when we can return to our normal routine.  Here is a non-scientific prediction based on elementary Chinese metaphysics.

If you have no patience to read all the jargons and arguments, skip to the red boldfaced paragraph below to see the conclusions.

PREDICTION BASED ON CHINESE CALENDAR AND 5-ELEMENTS THEORY

Chinese calendar is based on a 60-years cycle.  Each year is assigned a "stem" and "branch" with its 5-elements nature.  "5 elements" refer to the interplay between metal, wood, water, fire and earth energies.  Chinese metaphysics believes all living things are controlled by this interplay of 5-elements energies.

In Chinese metaphysics, COVID-19, a respiratory disease, is represented by metal and water elements.  Below is a rough year-by-year 5-elements analysis:

• 2019 is Ji-hai year or earth-water in 5-elements theory.  It means this year was dominated by earth and water energies.  This year had provided a favorable environment for COVID-19 to spread.
• 2020 is Geng-zi year or metal-water in nature.   It means this year was dominated by metal and water energies which were extremely favorable to the spreading of COVID-19. 
• 2021 is Xin-chou year or metal-earth in nature.  Earth nourishes or produces metal in 5-elements theory.  It means this year is dominated by strong metal energy.  Metal stands for respiratory organs like lungs.

How about 2022?  Could it be the end of COVID-19?

• 2022 is Ren-yin year or water-wood in nature.  Water energy is still strong in this year.  So COVID-19 is likely not retreating.
• 2023 is Gui-mao year or water-wood in nature.  Gui-water is "yin" (as in yin-yang) water.  It is the "yin-est" branch element and associated with dirty water and sickness.  From this alone, I predict COVID-19 will be still around with us in 2023.
• 2024 is Jia-chen year or wood-earth in nature.  No water or metal element to flame the virus in this year.  Therefore,  I guess COVID-19 will finally be over or at the least under control in this year.
• 2025 is Yi-si year or or wood-earth in 5-elements theory.  No water or metal element in this year.  

PREDICTION BASED ON "EARTH MOTHER CLASSIC"

I have checked "Earth Mother Classic" (地母經) To find supporting material for my analysis.  This ancient classic contains 60 predictions in poem form for the 60 years cycle of the Chinese calendar.  It was first known in 1883.  The contents was allegedly transmitted from the Earth Mother Goddess to the public through a psychic medium during divinations in her Shan Xi province temple ( 陝西漢中府城固縣之地母廟飛鸞傳經 ).  It makes annual predictions about agriculture, horticulture, aquaculture, silkworms, pests, pandemic, weather, human and natural disasters.  Annual predictions are put in the first page of each year's Chinese Almanac (see 2022 predictions in Chinese here).  

For 2020, "Earth Mother Classic" had predicted "many citizens meet sudden deaths" ( 人民多暴卒 ) and mass burials (山頭起墓田).

For 2021, this Classic had predicted "Diseases have tampered off slightly " ( 疾病稍紛紛 ).  "People recover gradually"  (人民漸蘇息 ).  "Epidemic shrinks back gradually among livestock"  (六畜瘴逡巡).  "Only half of the people survived"  (人民留一半).  The last prediction does not mean half of humanity had died but "a large number of people had perished".  In reality over 5.4 million people had perished globally since COVID-19 appeared (as of end of 2021).

For 2022, this Classic had predicted rising prices or inflation in modern terms (桑葉不堪貴).  "Though people are happy and prosperous,  (人民雖富樂 )  livestock suffer serious mishaps" ( 六畜盡遭凶 ).  The last one may be interpreted as infectious disease originated from livestock got transmitted to human (bird flu is found in Israel at end of 2021).

For 2023, this Classic had predicted "people suffer numerous diseases " ( 人民多疾病 ). "Rampant epidemic arise among livestock"  (六畜瘴煙起 ) and inflation will be here  (桑葉雖然貴).  This implies the epidemic will still be around in 2023.

Earth Mother Classic has made quite accurate predictions for year 2020 and 2021.  There are no predictions about epidemic and diseases for year 2024 and 2025 in the Classic except inflation will still be high in these 2 years.

Based on my "5-elements analysis" of the years above and "Earth Mother Classic" predictions,  I conclude COVID-19 may not subside until year 2024.  2022 and 2023 do not look optimistic.

Original Chinese text of Earth Mother Classic is posted in the Appendix below.

You could check global statistics on COVID-19 from this link to WHO:

WHO Coronavirus (COVID-19) Dashboard | WHO Coronavirus (COVID-19) Dashboard With Vaccination Data

WHO's statistics have scared me and driven me to take two jabs of Pfizer vaccine and a Moderna booster shot.  (Please consult your doctor before taking your shots, esp. if you have any heart condition).

Keep Safe and Happy New Year!

Feng Shui: What does your door-facing enhance?

Door is the main conduit of energy or qi entering into a residence.  There are many methods of evaluate the quality of this energy and what goodies that it brings to the residents.

Today is your lucky day because you will find the rarely published secrets of this door Feng Shui method.

Below are the door facing direction and what it enhances:

1. East-facing door enhances academic pursuits as long as the southeast side of house has no missing corner or caving in.   This house will enhance the academic performance or "wen-chang" of its residents.
2. South-facing door benefits women residents as long as the west side of house has no missing corner or caving in.   This house will enhance the luck of its female residents.
3. West-facing door enhances career/ official post luck as long as the northwest side of house has no missing corner, caving in, toilet and stove.   This house will enhance the government career or status luck of its owner.
4. North-facing door enhances male heirs and male luck as long as the east side of house has no missing corner or caving in.  This house will enhance the luck of younger male residents.
5. Northwest-facing door enhances career and wealth luck as long as the north side of house has no missing corner or caving in.   This house will enhance the government career and wealth luck of its residents.
6. Northeast-facing door helps personal cultivation and enlightenment as long as the southwest side of house has no missing corner or caving in.  This house will enhance religious/ metaphysics studies and spirituality for the residents.
7. Southeast-facing door enhances fame and reputation as long as the south side of house has no missing corner or caving in.   This house will enhance the fame/ reputation luck based on talent and skills of the residents.
8. Southwest-facing door enhances wealth pursue as long as the northeast side of house has no missing corner or caving in.   This house will enhance the business/ investment/ money management luck of the house owner.

"Ken, which Feng Shui school does this door-facing theory is based on?"

This is top secret (will show up in my "Practical Door Feng Shui" course discussion group).  Here is a hint:  It is based on flying the door-facing star in a certain way.  You can easily reverse engineer it and trace the patterns by drawing 8 charts.  This school uses the term "big golden dragon" (大金龙) to describe certain thing.

The interpretations here are based on 8-trigrams (pre- and post-heaven bagua) and 5-elements theory.

Static versus Dynamic Favorable Element ("useful god")

In Bazi or 4-pillars, favorable elements ("useful gods") are the elements that keep a chart in balance for standard charts and "special" for non-standard charts.  When the owner (daymaster or DM) of the chart runs into luck periods with these favorable elements, his luck will be good or at the least, nothing bad happen to him.

However, it is not unusual that someone runs into major disasters, illness or even death during his favorable element luck period/s.  Why?

This has to do with the concepts static vs. dynamic favorable elements. 

APPROACHES TO EXTRACTING FAVORABLE ELEMENTS

Static Model

This is the most popular approach used in most basic Bazi books/ courses and Bazi software because it is easy to learn and program.  It is based on the data from a moment in time (the birthday/ hour) and calculates which elements are needed to balance the chart.  These elements are called favorable elements and supporting elements ("happy god").  Then these favorable elements are used as benchmarks to determine if the future luck periods are good or bad for the DM.  This is simple and logical.  Isn't it?  But it fails to take into consideration of the cumulative effects of luck period elements on chart balance.  This is a main reason that this model does not always make the right predictions. 

Another reason is that if there is/ are interactions between natal chart and luck period.  For example, if fire is favorable according to this static model and you see a bing-fire luck period coming, you may predict good luck comes for this DM.  But if there is a xin-metal in the natal chart or another luck period,  this fire may be converted into water which is likely unfavorable.

Dynamic Model
If we use taking a photo analogy at a certain time (like time of birth) for static model, dynamic model would be taking multiple photos at different points of time  (luck periods) and drawing different conclusions on which elements are favorable or unfavorable for each photo or point of time.

This approach takes care of changing dynamics between 5-elements in a chart.  For example, if water is "favorable" at birth, when a 10-years-luck and annual luck are all water elements, water may become excessive and unfavorable!  This is one of the reasons why one may die during his favorable luck period defined by static model. 

The more of a "good thing" may not be merrier in 5-elements theory.  It is like salt is good for your body, but too much salt will give you high blood pressure.  The "right amount" of a good thing needed to keep the Bazi chart in balance is the key.

There are different levels of "dynamic model"---  taking photos or calculations of birth chart with

1. 10-years-luck only 
2. 10-years-luck and annual luck only  
3. 10-years-luck, annual luck and current month
4. 10-years-luck, annual luck, current month and current day
5. 10-years-luck, annual luck, current month, current day and current hour

But most people would do to 10YL and annual luck level only unless DM is in serious trouble or illness.  It will be too much calculations even for Bazi software.

Wealth enhancement using your personalized sound of wealth (Part I)

Today is your ultra-lucky day-- I will show you step-by-step how to figure out your own personalized sound of wealth to enhance your wealth luck.

The first step is to understand the "self" or daymaster (DM) in Bazi.  The second step is to find out if you have a "strong" or "weak"  DM.  The final step is to determine your personalized sound of wealth.

Bazi is based on 5-elements theory.  The 5-elements are: metal, wood, water, fire and earth.  Every person is assigned to one of these 5-elements according to their birthday.  For example, I was born in a metal day, so I am a "metal daymaster" (DM).

In Bazi, what I (metal person) control is my wealth.  Metal chops or controls wood.  So metal is my wealth element.  You will find out your wealth element following the tutorial below.   This tutorial is also helpful for you to understand my other articles on  Bazi topics.

HOW TO FIND OUT YOUR DAYMASTER AND STRENGTH
1.  Log in to www.bazi-calculator.com
2.  In the right-side of the screen panel box, select "Ken Lai Method".  No need to bother with anything else.
3.  Key in your birthday and hour in the left side of the screen.  Ignore the right side screen for "date to compare".
4.  Click the "calculate" box to get results.
5.  Scroll down the screen and see your Bazi chart in the left side with a table similar to the one here.
6.  The first box of second column (the one with "day master" in it) shows the elemental nature of your daymaster  (example here is geng-metal in grey color).  Below are the colors of 5 elements:

• Metal (Geng and Xin) in grey color (wealth is Wood)
• Wood (Jia and Yi) in green color (wealth is Earth)
• Water (Ren and Gui) in blue color (wealth is Fire)
• Fire (Bing and Ding) in red color (wealth is Metal)
• Earth (Wu and Ji) in yellow color (wealth is Water)

7.  Next to find if you are a strong or weak DM. Scroll down to the elongated box showing the words "DM strength", similar to the one below:

 8.  Below shows you how to determine if you have a weak or strong DM if your supporting elements is

• 25% or less = pretty weak DM
• 40% or less = weak DM
• 40- 50% = almost balanced DM
• 50%+ = strong DM
• 60%+ = strong DM

9.  This calculation is a rough estimation that is pretty accurate if you have a standard chart.  About 20% of Bazi charts are non-standard.

After you have found out your DM element and DM strength, come back next time to find out how to use your personalized sound of wealth to enhance your wealth luck.

Easy Pet Feng Shui

10 years ago, I wrote about my neighbor's new puppy, a black labrador:

stock photo

http://kenlaifengshui.blogspot.com/search?q=super+cleanser

Kate, the puppy, becomes an old dog.  She has died of cancer last Monday.

Kate was an energetic dog.  She always greeted me with hugs and talked to me.  She had kept her promise of not peeving on my lawn too.  I write this "Easy Pet Feng Shui" to honor her life.

EASY PET FENG SHUI

This pet Feng Shui is based on elemental or energy nature of each animal groups.  It is easy to execute-- simply put the pet house or nest into "best sector" of your house or animal shelter.  For example, if the best sector is in the east, put your pet's nest/ bed in the east side of your house.  Below are some definitions for the table below.

Animal Groups
For clarity, each group is represented by one animal.  But it can also represent similar animals.  For examples: "Dog group" also represents wolf, fox and the likes.  "Cat group" also represents tiger, cougar and the likes. "Fish group" represents all aquatic animals.  "Bird group" also represents any feathered birds like turkey, rooster and the likes.

Best Sector
This is the best location for setting up your pet's sleeping quarter or nest.  It promotes good health and vitality for your pet because the energy of this location matches your pet's unique energy patterns.

Weakening Sector
This is not a location for setting up your pet's sleeping quarter or nest.  The energy here will weaken or drain the energy of your pet.

Negative Sector
This is the worst location for setting up your pet's sleeping quarter or nest.  The energy here is fighting with your pet's energy.  It will create serious health problem like cancer here.

RIP Kate the dog

Jersey color determines the 2016 NBA championship?

Note:  In 2010,  using the 5-elements theory of Chinese metaphysics, I had found a strong correlation on the influences of jersey color on World Cup wins, especially if two teams are of similar caliber.  It seems the result of 2016 NBA Championship proves the point.
 
Chinese 5-elements theory states that the world is made up by the interactions between 5 type of energies;  metal, water, wood, fire and earth.  The relationship between these 5 types of elements are as follow:

• Metal is represented by white color. It is controlled by fire (red), drained by water (blue or black) and nurtured by earth (yellow or brown).
• Wood is represented by green color.  It is controlled by metal (white), drain by fire (red) and nurtured by water (blue or black).
• Water is represented by blue or black color. It is controlled by earth (yellow or brown), drain by wood (green) and nurtured by metal (white).
• Earth is represented by yellow or brown color. It is controlled by wood (green), drain by metal (white) and nurtured by fire (red). 

The final match of the 2016 NBA Championship game was a close match with Cleveland Cavaliers and Golden State Warriors.  It is a rare game 7 in the NBA Championship history.  The score differential between the two teams are very small throughout the game.  This shows both teams are pretty close to each other in terms of competency.

Cleveland Cavaliers wore black jersey whereas the Golden State Warriors wore white.  Black or deep-blue is water in energy-nature and blue is metal in Chinese 5-elements theory.

According to the theory, metal produces water (becomes liquid) or is drained by water when it produces water.  If everything is about equal between these two teams, the Warriors lost the edge in the "jersey competition".

The Warriors had lost the game in the final minute.

The Warrior should have picked yellow, brown or green jersey if they want to beat the Cavalier's black jersey.

Maybe the Warriors should consult me before picking the color of their jersey when they play their next championship game.

Jersey Colors and World Cup Wins-- First 8 Matches

Note:  In 2010,  I had found a strong correlation of 60% or more on the influences of jersey color on World Cup wins.  The followings are "green materials" (recycle)  with updated statistics for the first 4 matches of the World Cup in Brazil. (updated June 15 with  results of 8 matches)

Chinese 5-elements theory states that the world is made up by the interactions between 5 type of energies;  metal, water, wood, fire and earth.  The relationship between these 5 types of elements are as follow:

• Metal is represented by white color. It is controlled by fire (red), drained by water (blue or black) and nurtured by earth (yellow or brown).
• Wood is represented by green color.  It is controlled by metal (white), drain by fire (red) and nurtured by water (blue or black).
• Water is represented by blue or black color. It is controlled by earth (yellow or brown), drain by wood (green) and nurtured by metal (white).
• Earth is represented by yellow or brown color. It is controlled by wood (green), drain by metal (white) and nurtured by fire (red).
• Fire (red) is represented by red or purple or orange color.  It is controlled by water (blue or black), drained by earth (yellow or brown) and nurtured by wood (green).

Here are the rules for picking the winning team:

• If that team's jersey color controls the opponent's jersey color (example, red will lose to blue) or
• If that team's jersey color drains the opponent's jersey color (white will lose to blue)

How does it work?
Jersey color stands for part of the energy field surrounding the players.  By controlling or draining the energy field of your opponent using appropriate colored jersey, you can enhance the energy level of your own team and weakening the energy level of your opponent.  There are other Chinese metaphysical methods like Qi-Men-Dun-Jia that can increase the odds of  winning by 10- 15% through the use of directional energies.

Plugging this 5-elements theory to the first 4 matches, we have the following results:

FIRST 4 MATCHES

1.  BRAZIL vs CROATIA  (Jersey: yellow vs red)

-- yellow is earth and red is fire.  Earth drains fire.  The 5-elements theory predicts Brazil will win.
