The Flying Stars Feng Shui for 2025 begins with recognizing the Three Afflictions:
East Sans Sha 3 Killings 67.5 – 112.55
SE3 Tai Sui Grand Duke Snake 142.6 – 157.5
NW3 Sui Po Year Breaker Pig 322-337.5
NE 5 Star 22.6 – 67.5
These 3 Afflictions along with the 5 Star are the most conflicted and inauspicious directions for 2025. The caution here is to not use these rooms for a main entrance, bedroom, or office. It is advised to never face the Grand Duke but rather to put your back to that direction so that the Snake is supporting you. Likewise, you want to face the NW Sui Po, not put your back to it. These 4 areas of the Ba-Gua are serious places in your home, and property to not disturb with renovations, loud music or media, deep digging, and other disturbances.
The Flying Stars for 2025:
2 Earth with 9 Fire – Center Earth – The Earth here is a comfort to the 2 Star going through transition in Period 9. The 9 Star nourishes the Earthy 2 with Fire which is a caution that the 2 Star reverts to its Yellow Star of Sickness Period 8 tendencies. The risk of Fire related illnesses like heart disease, heartbreak, high blood pressure, stroke, and relationship issues is to be monitored. Best to keep this area calm. A bathroom here will drain wealth. Be mindful of digestive issues too. The 9 Star’s position here for Period 9 coupled with the 2 Star can work to our advantage with wealth, fame, and success.
CURES:
- A singing bowl or Dragon Headed Turtle to overcome obstacles
- If there is no space for items, hang a black and white prayer or poem in a metal frame that offers a blessing to the family and home.
- Bring in the color purple to honor the 9 Star
Colors: black, gray, silver, black, and brown. Metal furnishings, or painted white, black, or gray. Add a pop of purple.
Avoid: Earthy colors like yellow, tan, peach, Fiery colors like fuchsia, red, or orange, Wood, green, Water, or blue.
1 Water with 8 Earth – South East Wood – This is a weakening influence especially with the ruling Earth element present to control the 1 Star but there is good fortune to be found here as this star combination brings money luck, future wealth, promotion, success, helpful people, and good relations. This is a good place for an office, teacher, or student. Remember the Grand Duke or Tai Sui is in 142.5-157.5 (home of the Snake), this is very close to the South. DO NOT FACE THIS DIRECTION.
Cures:
- Pi Yao beasts facing into that SE3 direction.
- If this is a bedroom and you cannot sleep elsewhere in your home, put a Wu Lou Health Gourd on the bedside table and a Salt Water cure under the bed for protection of your health.
- Display a 2025 Tai Sui image or Grand Duke statue prominently placed.
- Do not disturb this area of your home or yard with loud construction, noise, and commotion.
- Display a Vision Board representing all you long to manifest in 2025 – be bold, brave, and daring in your vision!
Colors: All shades of Blue with Black, Gray, and some Metal and lush plants.
AVOID: Fire, fiery colors of red, violet, fuchsia, and orange, Wood, green, Earth, yellow, brown, tan, peach, or rust.
6 Metal with 4 Wood – South Fire – Home of the Horse, impacting those born in the Year and more personally, the Day of the Horse. This is another year with a conflicted Southern sector of the Ba-Gua. The 6 Star controls the 4 Star bringing great wealth, status, fame, rise in power, and success. Be mindful of mental health issues, especially if this is your bedroom. Seek professional assistance if depression becomes paralyzing. Be mindful of lung and large intestine illness.
Cures:
- Display 6 Gold ingots in round yellow plate.
- Add Earth like citrine, amber, quartz crystals, and pottery
- If a main entrance, hang a black string of 6 Chinese Coins from the door.
- Yellow bed linens, pillows, rugs, table linens, towels, flowers in your garden, and/or art
- To motivate changes in your career or to create opportunities for travel, display a Horse facing the door.
Colors: To mitigate and bring in a harmonious flow of chi use the palette of brown, tan, cream, yellow, peach, terracotta.
AVOID: Black, gray, white, Metal, blue. Water, Fire, fiery colors of red, violet, fuchsia, and orange, Wood, and shades of green.
8 Earth with 6 Metal – South West Earth – This is another pairing of an Earth Star being in an Earth sector. This can bring great wealth and good fortune. Too much Earth can cause health issues related to stomach and digestion, immune system, and those areas need to be watched just like in NE and Center. Even with these Stars not being as vibrant in P9, there is great potential for wealth and good fortune.
Cures:
- Add Earth like citrine, amber, quartz crystals, pottery
- Display a Gold Buddha for money luck
- Place 8 yellow silk flowers in an Earthen vase in a prominent place
- Create a Love Altar to usher in a new love, or support a current relationship by displaying a pair of Pink Heart Crystals, a Pair of Ducks, a favorite photo of you and your love and/or other meaningful memorabilia.
Colors: Yellow, Tan, Brown, Rust, Peach, Cream – color options for bed linens, pillows, rugs, and/or art
AVOID: Black, gray, white, Metal, blue. Water, Fire, fiery colors of red, violet, fuchsia, and orange, Wood, and shades of green.
4 Wood with 2 Earth – West Metal – This is in conflict and requires mitigating with Water colors, not actual Water. Be mindful of mental health, fighting among women, academic luck, popularity with a caution, digestive, spleen, and liver issues. It’s a mixed bag of possible outcomes so be mindful and cautious.
CURES:
- 4 stalks of Lucky Bamboo in a Blue Vase.
- Display a Red Happy Hotei for harmony in relationships
- Use a Brass Pagoda for students or anyone who works in education if this is your office or study.
Color: Watery colors are needed in blue pillows, bed linens, artwork, etc.
AVOID: Fire, fiery colors of red, violet, fuchsia, and orange, Wood, green. Earth, yellow, brown, tan, peach, rust, Metal, white, black, and gray.
3 Wood with 1 Water – North West Metal – This is a conflict of Wood and Metal. The 1 Star offers a mitigation of Water. 3 Star is already weak in P9 so this line up should ease the contentious energies here that bring gossip, legal issues, and robbery or loss of wealth. This is the Sui Po breaker for 2025, the placement of the Pig, the enemy of the Snake. The Pig in the NW 3 is the one that breaks up the dangerous Punishment of the Tiger Snake and Monkey. NO CONSTRUCTION or loud noises, renovations, or deep digging inside and outside your property. Some experts suggest Red here to drain the 3 Star. I think the use of Red is dangerous in a Metal sector where the 1 Water Star is, this just feels like too much contention of elements.
CURES:
- If this is a bedroom, please have a Wu Lou Health Gourd and a Salt Water cure by the bed for protection of your health. If possible, sleep in another room with better chi.
- Try to avoid this as a main entrance and if not, put up a convex Ba-Gua mirror and put Gold Fu Dogs on either side of the front steps.
- Do not disturb with loud construction, noise, and commotion inside and outside the home.
- No moving water here.
- Display a Red Happy Hotei for harmony in relationships.
- Avoid sitting here for long period of time – do not face SE while in this room.
Color: Blue and white/black pillows, bed linens, artwork, but not a lot – just a couple key items is enough.
AVOID: Fire, fiery colors of red, violet, fuchsia, and orange, Wood, green. Earth, yellow, brown, tan, peach, or rust.
7 Metal with 5 Earth – North Water – The 7 Star is compatible as Metal gives birth to Water but the 7 Star is a fighting star that brings lawsuits, arguments that can turn violent, theft, surgery, injury with sharp objects, and gossip or slander. Keep nothing sharp here like knives or guns. The element Water weakens this negative energy. The 5 Earth Star is greatly weakened in this position and the Metal of the visiting Star further drowns out its negative influences but that 5 Star is feeding the 7 so there is interaction and it is not favorable. Caution around lung and large intestine (Metal organs) illnesses.
Cures:
- Put on a table a round Metal bowl to absorb the toxic chi.
- If this is a bedroom please have a Wu Lou Health Gourd and a Salt Water cure by the bed for protection of your health.
- Try to avoid this as a main entrance but if you must, double check security and safety.
- Do not disturb with loud construction, noise, and commotion inside and outside the home.
- A lush house plant is also welcome but no running Water.
Colors: All shades of Blue and White with Metal
AVOID: Fire, fiery colors of red, violet, fuchsia, and orange, Wood, green. Earth, yellow, brown, tan, peach, or rust.
5 Earth with 3 Wood – North East Earth – The 5 Star is at home here and as this is the most negative of all the energies, this is NOT a place to use with any regularity like an office, bedroom, or entrance. Add Metal to reduce the misfortune that brings illness, accidents, and horrible events occurring.
Cures:
- If this is a bedroom please have a Wu Lou Health Gourd and a Salt Water cure by the bed for protection of your health.
- Try to avoid this as a main entrance but if you must, double check security and safety.
- Do not disturb with loud construction, noise, and commotion inside and outside the home.
- If a main entrance use a pair of Gold Fu Dogs to protect the home.
- Singing Bowl or Dragon Headed Turtle are welcome cures to display.
- Another option is to hang a 6 Rod Metal Wind Chime outside.
Colors: Black, Gray, White with Metal
AVOID: Fire, fiery colors of red, violet, fuchsia, and orange, Wood, green, Earth, yellow, brown, tan, peach, rust, and Blue.
9 Fire with Metal 7 – East Wood – Here the 9 Star is nourished which adds to the great good fortune in this sector of the home. Middle aged women and middle daughters will have the best year. The San Sha reduces the benefits for this sector unfortunately. Don’t add Fire here as it can be too much, leading to heart issues, blood clots, and mental health or head problems. In this Star formation, the powerful Fire of the 9 Star smelts the Metal of the 7 Star so it is neutralized leading to good fortune.
Cures:
- In a prominent place put 9 Purple silk flowers in a green vase
- A couple healthy plants – outside plants flowers that bloom purple like lavender, lilac, or indoor plants could be orchids.
- Amethyst crystals
- To appease the Sans Sha affliction place a Dragon-Headed Turtle
Colors: Green, Purple, and Wood element are the focus for design.
AVOID: Fire, fiery colors of red, fuchsia, and orange, Wood, green, black, gray, white, Metal, Earth, yellow, brown, tan, peach, rust, and Blue.
