Ken's Cyber Cave: small void line

I have just read an article about earth's shifting magnetic pole affecting the runway labels of Boeing airfield.

This article quotes NASA, ".... the magnetic north pole has crept northward by more than 600 miles since the early 19th century and is currently migrating northward about 40 miles per year. When the magnetic poles shift more than five degrees, the rounded numbers used to designate runways need to be changed."

This natural phenomenon also affects Feng Shui measurements because Feng Shui formula (li-qi) depends on magnetic field.

If your house is sitting around the middle of a "mountain" (15 degrees region), shifting 1 or 2 degrees may not change the Feng Shui conditions much. But if the house is within 2.5 degrees to the borderline of a mountain, it could fall into the "replacement star" region and even worse, small void line and even big void line (depending on the mountain). Read the following blog articles for what happens if your house sits on a void line.

Therefore, one should have a new Feng Shui audit once every few years or at least do another magnetic measurement, to make sure your house does not fall into a void line. Read the following link of my void line articles for what happens if your house sits on a void line and other factors that may push your house into a void line other than earth's shifting magnetic pole.

KUN MANG OR VOID LINES

The following was written on Nov 2, 2002

Void line is an advanced topic rarely discussed in detail even in Chinese Feng Shui books. Yet it has important effects on the Feng Shui of a house. So I'll post this on the lists that I know of.

DEFINITION OF VOID LINE

It is damn simple and no need to mystery it-- the borderline between two guas (trigrams) or mountains is the void line.

TYPES OF VOID LINES

A. Big Void Lines: 8 lines total, the borders between the 8 trigrams (qian, kan, gen, zhen, xun, li, kun, dui) are the "big void lines".

B. Small Void Lines: 24 lines total, the borders between the 24 mountains (ren, zi, gui, chou, gen, and so on).

C. Turtle Shell or Gui Jia Void lines: 8 lines total, details not disclosed here

WHY VOID LINE IS BAD

The border line of any 2 gua or 2 mountains is like a no-man's land-- its neither yang nor yin. In one short sentence to describe why void line sucks-- it has NO qi coming.

The cornerstone of Feng Shui is the qi theory. All living things need qi (wuxing) to survive and run their life cycles. Qi brings both good and bad fortune to people. When one lives on a void line and receives no or little qi, his/ her fortune will be negative.

Who can live on void lines? Spirits, ghosts and gods are not restricted by wuxing and yang-yin (do not need qi), so churches and temples can be built on void lines. Some famous Chinese temples are built on certain type of void line (metal void line).

RANKING THE VOID LINES

One should avoid the big void lines at any cost-- only temples and churches can handle it. Small void lines are more manageable. But avoid it nonetheless. It is not uncommon for new houses or houses that have been vacant for 2+ years to be on small void lines. When people move in and remodeling done, the angle will shift.
