You need to make your changes on 4th February 2024.

Flying Stars Feng Shui recognises that the earth energies change each year, coinciding with Chinese New Year.

The attached summary chart will give you some indication of what you can do to improve /protect your environment this year.

I use reference to the Five Elements so you can use colours and objects to provide cures, i.e.

• EARTH - Yellow, ochre, orange. Bricks, tiles, clay, ceramics, terracotta. Square shapes

• WOOD - Green, brown, Plants, flowers, trees, wooden furniture. Rectangular shapes

• FIRE - Red, purple, pink, candles, bright lights, triangular shapes

• METAL - White, silver, gold, Steel, copper, brass. Round shapes

• WATER - Blue, black, greys, fish tanks, mirrors. Wavy shapes.

In addition to colours there are various objects & symbols that are used in Feng Shui. You can reuse most of the cures from previous years provided you cleanse and recharge them before repositioning them. (wash them thoroughly and place in the sun for several hours).

It is not necessary to have all such symbols, but the areas you consider important should be carefully looked at & suitable cures placed.

You should always protect your self from the Grand Duke (located this year in the South East) by placing a Pi Yao in the North West sector facing Him in the opposite sector. The 3 Killings are in the South which makes that Robbery / Deception sector even more volatile so even more important to protect yourself from the mischievous energy of the Grand Duke in the South East.

2024 will be a year of prosperity and progression particularly technology. Social media will play an even bigger part in our lives. A year of happiness and hopefully financial stability if you place the appropriate cures.

2024 is the start of a whole new 20 year cycle in Feng Shui so some of the interactions with the Star energies and the 5 Elements have changed a little, e.g. Wealth and Relationships are more entwined, likewise relationships are influenced by the Illness Star.

The main influence this year is the Argument star being in the Centre of the Lo Pan Square. In most homes/business, the centre is generally a high traffic area so everybody will be in constant contact with this energy so please place the appropriate cures.

Every year there are positive & negative energies, this year is no different in that with Feng Shui you can encourage the good & block the bad.

If you need assistance to understand this System of Feng Shui please feel free to discuss your concerns with us in the shops.

Remember, the first rule of Feng Shui is that if it feels good, go with it, if it doesn’t feel right then change it.
