How to check career and residential changes

"When will I change career?"  "When will I buy or build a house?"  These are common questions in a Bazi consultation.

Career and residential changes are checked through  branch clashes in one's Bazi chart with luck periods.  Whether the results are positive or negative depends on the favorableness of the luck period.

• Zi, wu, mao and you regional clashes:  stand for residential change but no career change.
• Yin, shen, si and hai career clashes:  stand for both career change and residential change.
• Chen, xu, chou and wei career clashes:  stand for career change but no residential change.

Resource stars (zheng-yin/ pian-yin) represent house or property in Bazi.  The clashing and combination of resource star reflect changes in property ownership or movement (not elaborated here for this article).

WORK OR CAREER CHANGES BASED ON 10-GODS

Career or employer is represented by power stars (zheng-guan/ qi-sha) in terms of transformation stars ("10-Gods").  Career changes are likely to occur when:

• 10-years-luck/ annual luck bring in output star (shang-guan/ shi-shen)--  career or job duty changes
• 10-years-luck/ annual luck branch clashing the power stars (zheng-guan/ qi-sha) in the chart--  career or job duty changes
• 10-years-luck/ annual luck pillars clashing or modifying the power stars (zheng-guan/ qi-sha) and resource stars (zheng-yin/ pian-yin) in the chart--  both career and residential changes

When to fire your boss or change job

"When will I change job,  get a promotion, get a raise" and the likes are popular questions during a Bazi reading.  People have never asked me when they get a demotion or salary cut.

Today is your lucky day, below are the secrets of career and income changes.

You may have career and income changes when:

1.  Annual luck or 10-years-luck period clash or combine with the power star (Zheng-guan/qi-sha) in your Bazi chart:  +Power star stands for your current stable job and -power for unsteady job.  If power star is favorable to your chart, it implies the change is in the negative direction like demotion, salary decrease or harsh working environment.  If power star is unfavorable, it implies the change is in the positive direction like promotion, salary increase or improvements in working environment.

2.  Annual luck or 10-years-luck period clash or combine the resource star (Zheng-yin/pian-yin) in your Bazi chart:   Resource star stands documents, rights, order, official seal (authority) and the like.  In short, it stands for authority based on a position.   When resource star is clashed or combined, it means changes in your job or career.  If resource star is favorable to your chart, it implies demotion, salary decrease or work pressure due to job changes.  If resource star is unfavorable, it means promotion, salary increases or better work conditions due to the changes.

3.  Traveling horse star is clashed or combined by luck period/s or luck period/s bring in traveling horse star:  This implies your living environment is changed.  Traveling horse star represents mobility and usually associated with relocation.  Traveling horse stars are: yin, shen, si and hai.  If traveling star is favorable to your chart, you are likely to leave hometown for wealth and make it big (hence dislikes clashing or combination).  If unfavorable, you work hard and hectically for money.

Functions of Horse in Feng Shui

Earlier this month I wrote about seeing a giant metal rooster for sale in the Home Goods Store.  Yesterday I passed by the store to see if the rooster is still around.

Someone must have read my blog and snapped the rooster away to get her spouse in check--  the rooster is gone!  Instead the same place is occupied with a even bigger animal-- a giant meshed-wire horse that almost touches the store ceiling.  This metal-wire horse is made in USA with a price tag of US$799-- a pretty good deal if you have a big lobby or yard to put it in.


Horse is a popular "Feng Shui animal" for enhancement of career luck, wealth luck, mobility and even romance--  because horse by nature is active, moving forward and symbol of strength and persistence.  In the twelve earthly branches, horse is represented by "Wu-fire" which is one of the "4 peach-blossom elements" (Zi, Wu, Mao and You) in Chinese astrology.  Hence it is also capable of boosting romance luck.

Disclaimer:  I do not own stocks in Home Good Store nor I get any kickback from blogging about its merchandises.

Feng Shui Function of Horse Symbols

--Enhancing wealth and career luck (see 1 below for how)
--Making break-through in stagnation (see 1)
--Helping mobility or emigration (see 1)
--Enhancing romance and relationship (see 2)

1.  Put a horse figurine (any material except plastic) in the "Traveling horse" location of the user OR have the horse facing that direction. Below is the "Traveling Horse" directions:

Your Chinese Animal Sign	Location/ direction
Monkey, Rat, Dragon	NE-east
Tiger, Horse, Dog	SW-west
Pig, Rabbit, Ram	SE-south
Snake, Rooster, Ox	NW-north

 Bonus:  This trick can help selling real estate too.

 2.  Put a horse figurine (any material except plastic) in the "peach blossom" location of the user OR have the horse facing that direction. Below is the "peach blossom" directions:

Your Chinese Animal Sign	Location/ direction
Monkey, Rat, Dragon	West  (You)
Tiger, Horse, Dog	East   (Mao)
Pig, Rabbit, Ram	North   (Zi)
Snake, Rooster, Ox	South   (Wu)

Precautions for using Feng Shui Horse:
1.  No pregnant woman in the house-- may cause miscarriage.
2.  Do not use this if your Chinese animal sign is rat because it clashes horse.
3.  Do not use if your Bazi day-pillar has "zi" in the branch (unless you want your spouse to have affairs).
4.  The horse used should be dynamic look and not standing still or laying down.
5.  The horse should either facing a door or window.
6.  Don't use too many (8+) horses.  Too many will burn your house down because horse is fire in nature in Chinese metaphysics.
