SEPTEMBER FLYING STARS FENG SHUI September 8, – October 8, 2025: Last month all the Stars landed in their Home location on the Ba-Gua making August particularly potent, possibly extreme in its expression, and no doubt impactful. The best locations were magnified just as were the negative influences. September brings some continued positive perks along with a beleaguered North and North East, again, hammered with terrible Feng Shui.

2 Earth with 9 Fire and Visiting 4 Wood – Center Earth

ANNUAL STARS: 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.

MONTHLY STARS: For September, the 4 Wood is a far cry from last month’s nasty 5 Star wreaking havoc on every home, business, and office. The 4 Star is depressed by the heavy Earth of the Center, the draining influence of the 9 Star and the added negative aspects of the 2 Star also being Earth. The caution here is burnout, stress, and a lack of creative mojo.

CURES:

  • Display a singing/ round metal bowl or Dragon Headed Turtle to overcome obstacles with the 2 Star.
  • 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.
  • Taking any purple out of this area for August – do not want to embolden the 9 Star
  • For September continue with the annual palette and cures of Metal but add some Blue to nourish the 4 Star and further weaken the 2 Star.

Colors: black, gray, silver, black, and a little something blue. Metal furnishings, or painted white, black, or gray.

Avoid: Earthy colors like yellow, tan, peach, brown, Fiery colors like fuchsia, red, or orange, Wood, green, Water. 

1 Water with 8 Earth and Visiting 3 Wood– South East Wood

ANNUAL STARS: 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.

MONTHLY STARS: The 3 and 1 work in harmony with the Woody SE, and this may cause some funky interactions since the 3 Star is so disagreeable, argumentative, and feisty. There is too much conflict to benefit from the good fortune that could be found with positive Stars like 8 and 1.

Cures:

  • Pi Yao beasts facing into that SE3 142.5-157.5 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!
  • For September– Display a Red Dragon Headed Turtle for easing tensions.

Colors: For September, weaken the 3 Wood Star with warm fiery tones like peach, carnation pink, or lilac. a couple lush healthy house plants.

AVOID: Water features, a lot of Blue, Green, Earth, yellow, brown, tan, peach, or rust, white, gray, black,

6 Metal with 4 Wood with Visiting 8 Earth Star – South Fire

ANNUAL STARS: 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. There is also a risk of lung and large intestine illness. 

MONTHLY STARS: Another positive month for the South with this star studded combination bringing success, wealth, and promotion but you may feel some tension or delays depending on how you design this area of your home or office.

Cures:

  • Display 6 Gold ingots in a round yellow plate.
  • For August Yellow bed linens, pillows, rugs, table linens, towels, and/or art.
  • To motivate changes in your career or to create opportunities for travel, display a Red Horse facing the door.
  • In September, bring in fresh cut flowers or lush plants to boost the 4 Star. Also add some bright Fiery tones but not too much. 4 stalks of Lucky Bamboo in a wooden vase.

AVOID: Earth yellow, brown, tan, rust, peach, chamois, and putty, black, gray, white, Metal, Water, and blue tones.

8 Earth with 6 Metal with visiting 1 Water  – South West Earth

ANNUAL STARS: 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.   

MONTHLY STARS: This is a very positive location with the potential for leadership success, promotion, leaving a legacy, and intelligence on display. This is a great location for a teacher, consultant, or manager/ boss.

Cures:

  • Add Earth like citrine, amber, quartz crystals, or pottery.
  • Display a Gold Buddha for money luck with 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.
  • September we can continue to bring in Metal which will feed the future wealth 1 Star and motivate the 8 and 6 Stars. Metal wealth items like a gold Happy Hotei sitting on coins and white or cream colored bedroom or table linens.

Colors: For September cream, white, gray, tan, silver, gold, and brass.

AVOID: Yellow, Brown, Rust, Peach, Fiery red, orange, watermelon, violet, Blue. Water, Wood, and shades of green.

4 Wood with 2 Earth with visiting 6 Metal– West Metal

ANNUAL STARS: 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.

MONTHLY STARS: This is a conflicted area that could bode well for a therapist, consultant, writer, or lawyer. Overall there is a conflict with the 4 Wood and the direction and the 6 Star being Metal. The 2 Star adds an oppressive overtone that can be very stressful.

CURES:

  • 4 stalks of Lucky Bamboo in a Blue Vase in a prominent location.  
  • 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.

3 Wood with 1 Water with Visiting 5 Earth– North West Metal

ANNUAL STARS: 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 brings gossip, legal issues, 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.

MONTHLY STARS: This is about as stable as someone whose drunk a bottle of wine riding a bike down a hill. What could go wrong? Arguments that lead to divorce or break ups, stress that leads to a nervous breakdown, breakdown of communication, and good fortune turning sour. It is an area to be very mindful of not disturbing.

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.

AVOID: Wood, green. Earth, yellow, brown, tan, peach, or rust, Fiery red, violet, orange, hot pink, and moving Water.

7 Metal with 5 Earth with Visiting 9 Fire Star – North Water

ANNUAL STARS: 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.

MONTHLY STARS: EXPLOSIVE combination with the 9 Fire Star fueling the 5 Earth and the interaction of the 7 Metal truly turns any interaction violent, injurious, defaming, and can destroy a career if this is your main entrance or office. Keep this room dark, quiet, and undisturbed. VACATE this room and do not use a main entrance. Be very careful with anything explosive like a propane tank, a water heater, or gas stove.

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.
  • Black obsidian or blue stones.
  • AVOID THIS AREA OF YOUR HOME
  • For September add a chiming clock to break up the negative chi

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. No running Water.

5 Earth with 3 Wood with Visiting 7 Metal Star – North East Earth

ANNUAL STARS: 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.

MONTHLY STARS: This is another TERRIBLE location with this Star combination suggesting defamation, lawsuits that are costly, arguments that turn violent or litigious, and surgery that leads to worsening health conditions or even death.

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 and a Ba-Gua Mirror to protect the home.
  • A round Metal Bowl or Dragon Headed Turtle are welcome cures to display. 
  • Another option is to hang a 6 Rod Metal Wind Chime outside.
  • AVOID this room for anything important like studies, sleep, main entrance, or work.

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 with Visiting 2 Earth – East Wood

ANNUAL STARS: 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 or Three Killings 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.

MONTHLY STARS: The battle continues as we come into the East with these weakened Stars 7 and 2 which pick a nasty fight, cause health issues, create stress and anxiety that the 9 Fire is just fueling. There is nothing good that can come from this family focused and health focused direction.

Cures:

  • In a prominent place put 9 Purple silk flowers in a green vase with amethyst crystals.
  • A couple healthy plants – outside plants flowers that bloom purple like lavender, lilac, or indoor plants could be orchids.
  • To appease the Sans Sha affliction place a 3 Celestial Beasts Mirror or Plaque.
  • For September, remove any Fire colors or items, and boost Blue to drain the negativity along with Metal objects like a Metal singing bowl or dog bowl, and an angel statue to protect health and familial relationships.

Colors: Lighter green tones like celery with sky blue, white, dark blue, black, eggplant purple, and Metal cures.

AVOID: Fire, fiery colors like red, purple, orange, fuchsia, also Earth like yellow, brown, tan, peach, and Water.
