With a long break, I am absolutely full of ideas for my column and was having a hard time pinning down a topic. So I thought, I would go with a different concept and offer you some snippets of Feng Shui and Chinese metaphysical areas that I have been researching, exploring and working on for a long time.
This is a good date
While I was on my break, I was working hard on a book on date selection, among other things. While working on the book, I was reminded of my own confrontation with starting a company on the wrong date (yes, believe it or not, we are so busy taking care of our clients’ needs that sometimes we forget to select a good appointment). for our own activities!). In hindsight, of course, it provides a great example of the importance of date selection and the difference a good date can make.
It was 2006 and I was preparing for my regular survey of the places in my China Excursion course. The recognition included going to Tibet, which he had planned to include in the 2007 Excursion of the China Masters Academy. Needless to say, the trip was an absolute disaster. All members of my team had severe altitude sickness in various forms, and one member of the team became so ill that he had to be taken to a hospital for water on his lungs, before being immediately transferred from Tibet to Chengdu. Naturally this year when I took my students to Tibet for Mastery Academy’s annual field trip to China, we took every possible precaution to make sure everything would be okay, including selecting a good date! Not only did no one get sick, but the entire group of students had a blast. So why was one trip so disastrous and the other so uneventful? It’s all on the dates.
For my 2006 reconnaissance trip to Tibet, we started on what is considered in the 12-day officer date selection system as a balanced day (Ping Re). In general, this is considered an acceptable date to start long-distance travel. However, when considering the Dong Gong Method, another date selection method, then the date my team and I left for Tibet was actually a bad date because that was a day when a Fire Star he was present and would travel north. be affected by Black Sha Qi. Now, as we fly to Beijing and then Chengdu before heading to Lhasa, we head north all the time. However, since I had come from Hong Kong, I was somewhat less affected than my fellow travelers who had traveled from KL. The exact date we landed in Tibet was a Stable day (Ding Re) According to the 12-day officer’s method, but according to the Dong Gong method, it was an unfavorable day, being afflicted by the Bing Fu sickness star, which is exactly what happened!
In contrast, this year, the Mastery Academy team and students landed in China for the excursion to China on a stable day under the 12-day officer system. Also, based on the Dong Gong system, this day had the Virtue of the sky and Noble stars, the yellow spiral, the purple sandalwood, the heavenly emperor, the earthly emperor, and the golden storage stars.. Not only was no one sick, but everyone had a good time and the weather was even good!
The power of a good date!
The great men of China and their tombs
This year, one of the sites I had selected for my students to audit in China was the grave of Deng Xiao Peng’s mother. Now you may be wondering: why aren’t we looking at Deng’s own grave? Well, in Feng Shui, if we want to know why a particular person has achieved great things in his life, we do not look at his grave, we look at the grave of his ancestors. This is because Yin House Feng Shui affects descendants, so if we want to know how someone is going to turn out, the answer is to check the grave of their parents or grandparents.
And certainly this explains the different fortunes and destinies of two of China’s greatest leaders: Mao Zedong and Deng Xiao Peng. Mao will always be immortalized in China as a great leader and the first ‘modern emperor’, while Deng, despite being one of the important leaders of the Communist Party of China, never held an official position as head of state.
Mao’s Yin House Feng Shui originates from his grandfather’s grave, while Deng’s is drawn from his mother’s grave. This is already a strong tell-tale indicator of the different paths the two men will take. In Feng Shui, it is said “The man is Yang, the woman is Yin, the father is bones, the mother is flesh”. Now what does this mean?
“Mother is Flesh” refers to the use of Yin Qi and the talents and abilities that are acquired through experience, observation, and study. “Father is bones” refers to what is already in you at birth. Talent or latent abilities and innate character. So Mao’s leadership skills and charisma were born, while Deng had to learn the hard way how to get to the top.
Between the two graves, the grave of Mao’s grandfather, on top of a magnificent hill with a northern guardian (Bei Chen Xing) shutting yourself in the area’s Mouth of Water, it is definitely superior to Deng’s mother’s grave, which is a good but basic Five Petals Lotus Formation. Mao’s grandfather’s tomb has some of the typical characteristics of the Emperor’s creative formations, while Deng’s mother’s tomb derives its Qi from the Five Petals Lotus Formation. Deng’s power is not just a true power, it takes a long time to secure, just as the lotus takes a long time to emerge from the muddy waters. The blooming of the lotus also does not last, just as Deng’s power did not dominate for long.
The sons of Deng and Mao did not succeed them in positions of great power and influence. This is because both burial sites do not have multiple layers of incoming dragons, but only a single meridian location. This indicates power only for the immediate descendant, but not an enduring power that is passed down from generation to generation and can create a dynasty. This is in contrast to the ancestor tombs of the founders of the Ming and Qing dynasties, where there are extensive incoming dragons and supporting mountains behind the main place, indicating lasting power – 12 generations to be exact.
What makes a person go crazy?
Some of my students were texting me while I was in China, asking me about the young man’s BaZi that was unleashed at Virginia Tech University in the US According to information in the public domain, I got his birthday and this is the table of BaZi from Cho Seung Hui, the Korean gunman (time not known).
Xin Metal born in Ox (Chou) and Ox is part of the Winter season. At BaZi, we have a phrase “water and metal are too many emotions” and this graphic embodies it. This young man was emotionally unstable. Since he was born in Korea and immigrated to the US, this move further affects his chart in a negative way, as the direction of the West is associated with the Metal element. It would definitely have been better for his state of mind to probably stay in Korea, in the East, which is Wood.
According to his pillar of luck’s calculation, he would still be on Gui Hai’s pillar of luck. This means that your annual pillar is at a fu yin training with his pillar of luck. TO fu yin refers to a sad crying event. Its pillar of the year is not only in a fu yin training, but there is also a self-punishment between his pillar of the year, his pillar of luck and the annual pillar of 2007. Therefore, this person is deeply emotionally affected and unstable this year.
Tea fu yin It also explains his suicide, which is often explained in ancient BaZi literatures as San Ming Tung Hui that a fu yin can lead to sad, self-destructive problems, or even death. The pillar of the Year represents the external perspective of a person and also the feeling of gratitude. When this is affected, the person feels repressed and upset. As the affected star is the Wounded officer (Shang Guan) star, rebellious, angry, and eager to prove that the people around him are wrong about their perceptions of him.
Of course, there is more to this chart, but in keeping with the taster’s theme, I’ll keep it short and concise. In my next article, I will delve a little deeper into BaZi, specifically the famous and eccentric Hong Kong billionaire Nina Wang. In the next articles, I will also explore places with interesting Feng Shui in and around Malaysia. So if there is a place or location (a restaurant, an office, your favorite chicken rice shop) that you are curious about, as far as Feng Shui, write to me and let me know!
