THE THING ABOUT THE BRIGHT HALL

You may have heard Feng Shui practitioners talking about the importance of the Bright Hall. A Bright Hall is literally the space immediately outside and inside our front doors. Each home will have two Bright Halls. An external Bright Hall directly outside your front door, an internal Bright Hall which is the entryway into your home.

As Qi flows into your home through the front door, the Bright Hall is the first point of contact. This is where the Qi collects before it is distributed around the home.

Psychologically, the entryway is also the first place we step into as we enter our homes. That very act of pausing a moment to remove our shoes carries a feeling that the day is done, and we are safe home again, doesn’t it?

Given the psychological impact that the Bright Hall has on our moods as we get home, this is quite a significant area from both a Feng Shui and psychological perspective.

Entryway Logic #1: The entryway should be kept clear of clutter

Absolutely! The entryway is where Qi collects as it comes through the front door. Clutter in this area will inevitably result in stagnant Qi that is unable to flow properly into the rest of your home.

Keeping your shoes and socks neatly in the shoe cabinet is also recommended. Imagine the Qi entering your home carrying the scent of smelly shoes and socks that are tumbled in a heap around your front door!

This is why it is so very important to keep your entryway bright, clean, and clear of clutter. And as for the psychological impact, imagine going home and the first thing you see when you open the door is clutter. How relaxing is that?

Entryway Logic #2: Mirrors at the entryway is bad

Some people believe that mirrors at the entryway brings bad luck. In the practice of Feng Shui, the mirror has no impact. If you enjoy admiring your own reflection as you walk in and out of the house, a mirror at the entryway does not carry any Feng Shui significance.

Entryway Logic #3: The entryway is able to block or diffuse any negative external Sha

In my previous column, I explained that we should always try to avoid negative Sha such as Poison Arrows, Cutting Knife or Building Sha pointing directly into your front door. There is a common belief that the entryway is able to diffuse the negative energy coming in.

This, in fact, is partially correct. It depends on the type of Sha coming into the front door. The entryway may be able to disperse negative Sha caused by smaller Poison Arrows. These would include the edges of walls pointing into your front door (known as the Wall Sha), as well as sharp edges of road signs and perhaps even electrical poles.

However, it would be ineffective against large blockages such as the edge of an entire building right outside your front door (known as a Building Sha) or a large electrical pylon. These large negative formations will affect your entire house, and the entryway will not be effective in nullifying their effects.

Entryway Logic #4: Building a wall or a divider at the end of the entryway will block out any negative Sha

Again, partially true. Effective for smaller negative formations, but impotent against larger and stronger energies caused by the edge of a building pointing straight into your front door.

Please note, however, that in order to be considered a wall, the divider must literally be a solid floor-to-ceiling wall. From a practicality point of view, how feasible would this be in most modern-day homes?

Entryway Logic #5: No exposed beams please!

True. In fact, most Feng Shui practitioners are probably allergic to the presence of exposed beams inside the house. Yes, we know they can look nice. But the presence of these beams disrupts the flow of Qi in the house, causing unnecessary internal negative Qi or Sha Qi. At the end of the day, the goal of Feng Shui is to ensure that energy moves through the home in a smooth and uninterrupted manner. Exposed beams are an anathema in Feng Shui.

GUI WATER DAY MASTER AND JUNE 2023

For the Gui Water Day Master, the arrival of the Wu Wu (戊午) in June 2023 is the perfect time to spend a month upskilling your business acumen and management skills.

When a Gui Water Day Master meets your Wu Earth (戊) Direct Officer on the Heavenly Stems, sparks fly! Why? Because Gui Water meeting Wu Earth combines to create Fire… and Fire will certainly spark in June!

This is the time to invest in developing your leadership skills by improving your ability to inspire and motivate, delegate effectively, and communicate clearly. Seek out leadership training programs, engage in mentoring relationships with experienced leaders, and actively seek feedback to improve your leadership abilities.

If that’s not your cup of tea, you could also focus a little time in June 2023 to develop your analytical thinking skills to effectively evaluate data, identify trends, and make informed decisions. Enhance your ability to gather and analyze information, interpret financial statements, and conduct market research. This will enable you to identify opportunities, mitigate risks, and optimize business performance.

But more importantly, your Ding Fire (丁) Indirect Wealth can help you sharpen your strategic thinking skills through a thorough understanding of the competitive landscape. Learn to analyze market trends, identify potential risks and opportunities, and formulate effective strategies to achieve business objectives.

REN WATER DAY MASTER AND JUNE 2023

The Wu Wu (戊午) energies in June 2023 may feel rather coercive to the Ren Water Day Masters. The Ren Water Day Master is all about freedom of exploration. But here comes your Wu Earth (戊) 7 Killings, intent on channelling your energies. It may feel like circumstances out of your control may be forcing you into action that you are not entirely comfortable with. But who knows? This new route may lead to somewhere even better!

June 2023 is a good month to use your Ding Fire (丁) Direct Wealth to re-evaluate the overarching goals and objectives you want to achieve. Reflect on whether the new route aligns with the bigger picture. Can still help you progress towards your desired outcomes? Sometimes, taking a different route can lead to unexpected opportunities and growth.

Look for potential compromises or alternatives that can address the concerns of all parties involved by activating your Ji Earth (己) Direct Officer. Explore possibilities for integrating elements of both routes or finding a new approach that satisfies the key objectives of the change. Finding a middle ground can lead to a solution that is more acceptable to everyone.

But most of all, when a Ren Water Day Master meets your Wu Earth (戊) 7 Killings, it’s all about allowing yourself to be guided. Like a river being channelled by the mountains, being open to guidance allows you to tap into the wisdom and experience of others. Their insights and perspective can provide valuable guidance that can help you make informed decisions or navigate challenging situations.

XIN METAL DAY MASTER AND JUNE 2023

When the Xin Metal Day Masters meet the Wu Wu (戊午) energy in June 2023, experiential learning or hands-on learning is likely to be the topic of the month.

A Xin Metal Day Master’s Direct Resource is the immovable Wu Earth (戊). Unconsciously and unknowingly, you tend to place a lot of premium on fixed rules in your learning experience. In your learning journey on any topic, the first thing you hew towards are the rules. In other words, there is a tendency to find the boundaries of the box, before you begin thinking out of the box.

But in real life, theoretical rules may differ vastly from actual experience. June 2023 is a good month to have fun with some hands-on learning. With your Ding Fire (丁) 7 Killings and Ji Earth (己) Indirect Resource coming together for a month, this is a great time for experiments and simulations. Any method that allows you to explore the learned concepts and test out the effects for yourself.

Let’s take this a little further. After all, your Ding Fire (丁) 7 Killings is progressive and adventurous. Field trips and site visits will give you real-world experience relevant to the subject matter. Alternatively, try using role-playing and case studies to take you further into your learning journey.

The end result of all these hands-on learning will inevitably build up your store of knowledge, that towering Wu Earth (戊) Direct Resource by helping you acquire knowledge, acquire skills and deepen your understanding of the topic at hand.

GENG METAL DAY MASTER AND JUNE 2023

For the Geng Metal Day Master, the arrival of the Wu Wu (戊午) in June 2023 is an apt time to enhance your inherent resourcefulness.

Use your Wu Earth (戊) Indirect Resource to seek knowledge and learn new skills. The more you know, the more resources you have at your disposal. Stay curious, read books, take courses, attend workshops, and engage in activities that broaden your understanding and expertise.

Take advantage of technology and digital tools to streamline your work and access resources more efficiently. Explore software, apps, and online platforms that can assist you in tasks such as project management, research, data analysis, and communication. Stay up to date with the latest advancements that can enhance your resourcefulness. This would be a good way to maximize the use of your Ding Fire (丁) Direct Officer star.

Cultivate resourcefulness in your everyday activities through your Ji Earth (己) Direct Resource star. Look for ways to repurpose or maximize the use of existing resources. Practice efficient time management, prioritize tasks, and delegate responsibilities when appropriate. Seek feedback and input from others to gain different perspectives and ideas.

JI EARTH DAY MASTER AND JUNE 2023

For the Ji Earth Day Master, June 2023 represents a good chance to study and learn from your competitors. After all, with the Wu Earth on the Heavenly Stem of the Wu Wu (戊午) month, your Rob Wealth star, signifying your competitors, are visible. Why not use this opportunity to scope them out?

In the 2023 Gui Mao year, the Ji Earth Day Master sees Indirect Wealth sitting on 7 Killings. Both are expansive energies. Couple that with the Rob Wealth sitting on Indirect Resource in June 2023, Ji Earth Day Masters may feel a little off kilter. In such a situation, studying your competition is a good way to tap into information for your decision-making process.

With your Wu Earth (戊) Rob Wealth on the Heavenly Stems, let’s start with the easy part – the public-facing part of your competition. Analyze their website. Pay attention to their product/service offerings, pricing, unique selling points, and customer testimonials. Understand how they position themselves and what makes them stand out. Examine their social media accounts to gain insights into their engagement strategies, content types, frequency of posting, and audience interactions. Note the platforms they focus on and how they leverage social media to connect with their customers.

Next, let’s work on your Ding Fire (丁) Indirect Resource star. Conduct market research to gather information about your competitors. This can include reading industry reports, news articles, and press releases. Look for information on their market share, growth rate, target audience, recent product launches, partnerships, and any notable achievements or challenges they have faced.

At the same time, explore customer reviews, testimonials, and feedback on platforms like review websites, forums, and social media. Understand what customers appreciate about your competitors and where they might have shortcomings. This can provide valuable insights into areas where you can differentiate yourself and improve.

And finally, your Ji Earth (己) Friend Star. Attend trade shows, conferences, and industry events where your competitors may have a presence. Observe their booths, presentations, and interactions with attendees. This can help you understand their marketing strategies, industry relationships, and the image they project to the public. Connect with professionals in your industry through networking events or online communities. Engage in conversations and ask open-ended questions to gather insights about your competitors. You can also conduct surveys or interviews with your target audience to understand their perceptions of your competitors and what they value most.

WU EARTH DAY MASTER AND JUNE 2023

The Wu Earth Day Master meeting the Wu Wu (戊午) in June 2023 has the potential to meet up with noble and influential individuals, if you are open to making a move.

Bazi practitioners frequently joke about the Wu Earth’s love for procrastination. But here’s the thing, Wu Earth does not really procrastinate. From the perspective of a Wu Earth Day Master, he or she is not willing to make a move until they have had all their ducks are in a row. In other words, the Wu Earth Day Master prefers to be well prepared and well organized before they even take their first step. Which is fine. In the Wu Wu (戊午) pillar in June 2023, you find your Friend star sitting on top of your Direct Resource. Things are falling into place. The energy is accumulating and you need to start moving soon.

To maximize on the energies brought by June 2023, be open to new connections and be willing to engage in conversations with those you meet. Stay attention to the presence of noble people who may possess valuable knowledge, resources, or connections that can benefit your personal and professional life.

When you come across noble people, focus on building meaningful relationships rather than simply seeking immediate gains. Genuine connections built on trust and mutual respect can lead to long-term collaborations and mentorships. Nurturing these relationships can bring both personal and professional growth.

At the same time, pay attention to their values and the alignment with your own. Surrounding yourself with people who share similar values can create a supportive and uplifting environment. Seek connections with those who inspire you and share a common vision for success.

A Wu Earth meeting another Wu Earth can play out in two ways. On the positive spectrum comes an accumulation of energy. The possibility of a pooling of resources, ideas, or strengths. This can be seen in partnerships or collaborations that bring together complementary skills and expertise.

On the negative spectrum, however, two mountains meeting could lead to a standoff, an impasse or even competition or rivalry. It suggests the possibility of a clash of interests or a lack of willingness to compromise. It also indicates the possibility of a competitive environment where two strong individuals are vying for dominance. But looking at this scenario in the long run, this may be the challenge you need to shake off your equanimity and encourage you to start taking action.

DING FIRE DAY MASTER AND JUNE 2023

Ding Fire Day Masters meeting the Wu Wu (戊午) In June 2023 is like a signal fire on top of the mountain. It’s time to let your flame shine bright because here comes the support you need to attract attention.

The energy of the month bolsters your leadership qualities, just like the signal fire on top of a mountain serving as a beacon of guidance and leadership. You can use the June 2023 energy to illuminate, help others see clearly and navigate their path, empower others to identify opportunities, make wise decisions and navigate challenges with confidence. And as you do unto others, so shall you benefit.

Elaborating on the analogy of a signal fire, June 2023 heightens your in-born ability to influence and inspire. You may be the source of inspiration and motivation for the people around you. Think of this as a practice round for Period 9!

Lastly, the passionate nature of Ding Fire is amplified in June 2023, infusing you with a heightened sense of passion, motivation and drive. This may be your catalyst for action. Channel this sense of enthusiasm wisely in pursuit of your goals.

BING FIRE DAY MASTER IN JUNE 2023

The ferocity of the Wu Wu (戊午) pillar is most potent in the hands of the Bing Fire Day Master. Because in the Horse animal branch lies your Goat Blade star, your Rob Wealth!

This Rob Wealth, is truly a double-edged sword. On the one hand, increased recklessness or carelessness might cause you to suffer some minor financial losses. But on the other hand, your Eating God suppressing on the Rob Wealth offers some opportunities.

Leverage on your Wu Earth (戊) Eating God’s creativity to tap into new communities or attract new followers. For example, you may want to explore launching interactive campaigns and contests to engage your followers. Not only will this attract new followers but also foster a sense of community and active engagement for you.

Alternatively, with the Wu Earth prominent in the June 2023 Bazi Chart, perhaps some engaging storytelling might be the order of the month? Storytelling creates an emotional connection with your audience, making your message more memorable and relatable. Share stories that highlight the value and impact of what you offer, weaving in the human element to engage and resonate with your audience.

But what if you are not in the position to use any of these marketing ideas? What if you want to use this energy for yourself? Again, with your Eating God prominent in the month of June 2023, perhaps this may be the right time to spend some money on the little luxuries of life and pamper yourself a little?

A word of caution, though. With the Rob Wealth hidden in the Earthly Branch, you may want to be a little extra careful with whom you share your strategies and ideas. Your competition may be secretly studying your old methods. Surprise them!
