Ren Water Day Masters may be feeling the first stirrings of restlessness in January 2024’s month of the Wood Ox (乙丑). Let’s dissect that feeling right here.
In Chinese Metaphysics, February, the month of the Tiger (寅) heralds the coming of spring when the snow starts to melt. January, or the month of the Ox (丑), represents the final month of winter. While it is still cold in January, imperceptibly, the temperature starts to increase before it dips back down again. This phenomenon is called the January Thaw. A temporary warming that can lead to a partial or temporary thawing of ice and snow.
But what does this mean for the Ren Water Day Master? Very likely, you feel the first ripples of unsettledness. How you respond to this feeling, is how we can make the most of January 2024’s energy for you, the Ren Water Day Master.
HURTING OFFICER MONTH: STREET-SMART? OR JUST PLAIN REBEL?
While a Hurting Officer month on the surface, the energy of the Yi Chou (乙丑) begins with your Ji Earth (己) Direct Officer star. Of the 5 Yang Day Masters, the Ren Water alone has an interesting reaction to your Direct Officer star. Ren Water, meeting its Ji Earth Direct Officer, has the capacity to erode the Ji Earth. Think of how powerful bodies of water can change coastal lines. At the surface level, this is the Ren Water Day Master’s reputation for being adventurous and free-spirited. Look a little deeper, and we can appreciate that this is the Ren Water Day Master’s ability to change systems and break down barriers.
But the Hurting Officer sitting on Direct Officer is a negative formation! In the classic texts, that is. It’s considered a negative because the Hurting Officer tends to be argumentative by nature. This argumentative streak causes problems when you run up against direct authority. But again, this assumes that we have no control over our own behaviour.
Hence, in January 2024, the need to channel that Hurting Officer energy into street-smart resourcefulness instead of being a rebel who disrupts just for the sake of disruptions. Street-smart individuals are able to navigate changes within existing systems. This is a smart use of the Hurting Officer energy. Rebels, on the other hand, are just resisting for no reason. That would be a silly use of the Hurting Officer.
BREAKING DOWN BARRIERS
We all face different types of barriers in our everyday lives – income, time, health, psychological, gender, race, language, resources, and more! Granted, some barriers are easier to overcome than others.
You see, referring to the analogy earlier in this post about the January thaw, this phenomenon carries a lot of power. It can break up the ice and frozen ground, allowing the water to run free. So how can the Ren Water Day Master use this effectively? With a month’s energy, let’s try to overcome the smaller barriers first.
And since it is a Hurting Officer month, which also represents sales, why not spend some time focusing on honing your sales pitch to overcome sales objections? That’s a very literal interpretation of the Yi Chou energy. There are many courses online designed to give you an answer to every possible form of sales objection. These are frequently quick workshops that don’t cost a lot of money nor time.
But what if you are not working in sales? At the end of the day, we are all selling something, aren’t we? Again, the goal is to identify that small step which can help you start to break down certain barriers that are standing in your way. Who knows? This one small step could lead to another opportunity, and then another, and yet another as 2024 progresses.

For the Xin Metal Day Master, January 2024’s Yi Chou month (乙丑), is a time for the germination of ideas. To prepare the grounds and nurture your internal self in such a way that you recognize the seeds of new opportunities popping up on the landscape.
INDIRECT WEALTH MONTH: OPTIMISTIC? OR JUST PLAIN OPPORTUNISTIC?
Back in the day, the Indirect Wealth star was viewed as a negative. In that feudal society thousands of years ago, the noble, military and scholastic classes were considered the cream of the crop. The merchant class? Frequently seen as a necessary evil.
Today, that view has been completely turned around. Entrepreneurs are now being treated like royalty, and there is a general acceptance that the Indirect Wealth is a very useful star. But still, there are some lingering prejudices surrounding that opportunistic streak that is imbued by the Indirect Wealth star. In January 2024, the time is ripe for the Xin Metal Day Master to work past that prejudice and train yourself to spot the gaps.
After all, the term ‘opportunistic’ is merely a human label. We are the ones who give positive or negative connotations to a term. If you are giving back value in return, are you really being opportunistic?
The ability to spot opportunities is very important for business owners. It’s doubly important for the career professional. Why? Because many career professionals (hopefully not you), are often so consumed by the tasks that they have been hired for, that it leaves little time to think of your career as a business. Sometimes, we all could do with a little reminder.
THE ART OF SPOTTING THE GAP: STAY CURIOUS
A monthly Bazi forecast is always about the small, little things we can do with a month’s energy to keep propelling ourselves forward. It’s not about a complete change of strategy every month. Our daily tasks of our businesses or careers must still be completed.
But for the Xin Metal Day Master, in January 2024, while we have the energy of the Yi Chou (乙丑), remind yourself to make time to stay informed and updated on industry trends, market changes, and emerging technologies. Expose yourself to different perspectives and ideas. In short, stay curious!
Curiosity is often a prerequisite for recognizing opportunities. Amongst other benefits, it drives you to explore and investigate. But sometimes, curiosity can lead us up a dead-end road. Be okay with that! You’ve just found another way that doesn’t work, that’s all.
Somewhere along the way, we’ve all somehow learned that every tiny effort must yield results by a thousand times. Probably because we’ve all been exposed to too many overnight success stories. It doesn’t always work that way. Sometimes, explorations do lead us to a dead-end. The trick is to have the curiosity to keep pursuing.
So for the Xin Metal Day Master, January 2024 is a month to stay curious and challenge yourself to constantly find the opportunities in any given situation. This is how we train our abilities. And don’t worry, curiosity did not really kill the cat.

In the study of Bazi, January or the month of the Ox (丑) represents the end of Winter. A time before the great thaw. When the world is still encased in ice. In the hands of a Geng Metal Day Master, January 2024’s Yi Chou month (乙丑) represents a chance to get a head start on your winter ploughing.
DIRECT WEALTH MONTH: DILIGENCE? OR JUST PLAIN SLOG?
To be honest, the Direct Wealth has never been one my favourites among the 10 Gods. Yes, it’s a wealth star. But this is wealth that commensurates to the level of your hard work. In other words, the harder you work, the better you earn. And as a weak Day Master, I’m allergic to hard work. 😊
But even within the connotation of hard work, there is a difference in perception. Do we view this as diligence? Or just plain slog? Slogging implies work that is tedious, monotonous, purposeless, and conveys a sense of weariness.
Meanwhile, diligence is more purposeful in nature. It implies consistent and steady application of effort over time, in pursuit of a particular goal.
So how then, can a Geng Metal Day Master use January 2024’s energy in a more diligent and purposeful manner?
WINTER PLOUGHING
If we were to visualize the Yi Chou as the frozen winter soil, then metaphorically, the actions taken by the Geng Metal Day Master in January 2024 is literally akin to winter ploughing. The intention of winter ploughing is to loosen the soil, making it more porous so that rainwater can seep in or infiltrate instead of flowing away as runoff without being accessible to roots of the plants or crops.
Winter ploughing is really hard work. Imagine trying to dig into frozen earth with a spade! This is where intentional diligence comes in for the Geng Metal Day Master – approaching your projects with mindset of a farmer, where each deliberate furrow symbolizes not just effort, but the cultivation of fertile ground for the seeds of success to flourish in the seasons to come.
Therefore, for the Geng Metal Day Master, January 2024 can be a time where you are literally preparing the foundations. This goes beyond surface-level completion of tasks. It involves the thoughtful preparation of the ‘soil’ in your professional and personal life.
The surface-level tasks will always be there. They still need to be dealt with. Frequently, these are tasks equated to our workaday. But expanding on this idea of winter ploughing for the Geng Metal Day Master, January 2024 requires you to be intentional about where you expand your energy towards beyond the surface-level, check-in-the-box tasks. Because where we direct energy, is where we receive the benefits.
Let’s hang this metaphor around an example. Let’s say you are a career professional looking to expand your career path. The winter ploughing metaphor is you finding pockets of time to complete the tasks directly related to your goal of expanding your career path. Because in our busy and overwhelming lives, it is these important yet non-urgent tasks that often get relegated to the bottom of the to-do list.
So let’s use the month of January 2024 to put those important future-related tasks to the forefront of your priority. And this is how you plough the ground to prepare for future success to come.

This is it. The final month before we officially welcome Period 9 and the 2024 Year of the Wood Dragon. Almost feels like being a runner at the starting line, doesn’t it? But actually, that’s not quite true. Energy doesn’t work that way. It’s a continuous flow. What we sow today, we reap tomorrow. What’s so special about January 2024 and the month of the Wood Ox (乙丑)? It’s a continuation of December and the bridge to February. For the Ji Earth Day Master, it represents your 7 Killings month.
7 KILLINGS MONTH: STRESS? OR ADVENTURE?
In traditional Bazi readings, the 7 Killings is often equated with problems, danger, stress, disasters, hardship, and fear. Yet, in the principle of the Yin and Yang, the 7 Killings also has its positive attributes such as opportunities, power, growth, excitement, adventure, and courage. Which side of the equation presents itself typically depends on whether a 7 Killings is favourable or unfavourable your Bazi Chart.
But wait a minute! At the end of the day, what is favourable or unfavourable? It basically means whether you like something or you dislike something. In other words, our mindsets and perceptions are the ones that label the 7 Killings as either problems or opportunities.
To truly understand the 7 Killings, we need to think back to the days when this art was first created. Back then, the world was a wilder and much more dangerous place. At that time, a 7 Killings means that you are walking up the mountain and you come face to face with a tiger. Avoidance tactics don’t really work then, does it? You’d better be running for your life. Instant, knee-jerk action is required. But what are your odds of meeting a tiger tomorrow? It’d be a 100% if you’d visit the zoo!
So in the modern world, the 7 Killings has become synonymous with stress. Stress adds up when we persist on regarding the obstacles as insurmountable. To cope, those of us living in today’s modern world have created a plethora of avoidance tactics. Some will use distractions like social media. Others happily engage in denial.
For the Ji Earth Day Master, the most likely avoidance tactic is procrastination. Because this 7 Killings is akin to having many people, issues or obstacles, digging into you. Not pleasant. Hence, procrastination. As in, “It’s not like I’m not going to take action! I’m just taking action… tomorrow!” And then tomorrow never comes.
One of the most effective and empowering ways to alleviate stress is literally what the 7 Killings is built for – taking action. All my Bazi readings are centred around creating strategies to encourage my clients to take some action, no matter how small. Like seriously, don’t snub the small actions. They snowball into bigger effects.
And for the Ji Earth Day Master that loves playing within a group dynamics…
INTRODUCING THE INNOVATION CAFE
Grab a bunch of likeminded friends or contacts, people who share a similar goal or objective, and create an Innovation Café. This is where the group meets monthly in a casual setting to discuss ideas over coffee.
This is not necessarily about working together. The idea of the innovation café is to create an environment where you, the Ji Earth Day Master, is surrounded by people who are on the same path as you are.
Let’s take a common example. Hypothetically, let’s say you are a full-time parent looking to start a home business that can fit into your home schedule. Seek out a group of similar parents (moms or dads), and propose a regular meet-up. Perhaps at the coffee shop located conveniently close to the school? Here, you meet, talk, discuss ideas, find solutions to common problems, support each other, act as accountability coaches to each other. Like a group of adventurers embarking on their own individual adventures, but still supported.
How long should these meet-ups go for? As long as you still enjoy it? This is, after all, a month’s energy. So the January 2024 Ji Chou month is a good time to initiate this idea. Because we are always more likely to start something new or scary when we see others do the same.
Isn’t that a great way to start the New Year? Oh, and in that vein, here’s me wishing you a very Happy New Year in 2024.

With each passing month, we inch closer to 2024, the year of the Wood Dragon, and the official start of Period 9. Given that this is such an important year, I thought that I should start my annual forecasts a little earlier than usual, so that everyone will have more time to prepare. So let’s start by examining what the 2024 Year of the Wood Dragon presents, at a broad level, to the Wu Earth Day Master.
7 KILLINGS YEAR: COMPULSION TO MOVE
Each of the 10 Day Masters react to their 7 Killings very differently. But now, thanks to AI-generated art, I can try to illustrate the pictorial side of Bazi. Please bear in mind that this is one possible interpretation of the Wu Earth facing the Jia Chen (Wood Dragon). When it comes to the pictorial side of Bazi, different practitioners will see different pictures.
Think of a tree growing on a mountain. As the tree grows, it sends its roots deep into the soil, through the crevices, seeking the nutrients hidden deep inside.
Now when this picture is presented to you, the first thing that may come to mind could be a feeling of pressure. Perhaps even a feeling of impending additional burdens, responsibilities or even added mental weight. This feeling of pressure may bring about a compulsion to move.
Additionally, as the tree sends its roots into the ground, it dislodges little pebbles that will roll down the hill. These little pebbles represent small actions that the Wu Earth Day Master can take, strategically, throughout 2024. But what type of actions? The Bazi holds a clue!
THE SNOWBALL EFFECT
One possible strategy for the Wu Earth Day Master is to create small, consistent and sustainable actions that are designed to eventually snowball into a bigger effect. Why action? Because 7 Killings is action-oriented. And to what effect? Depends on your objective or goal or strategy for the year. Like playing a game of chess. A pawn here, a piece there, to eventually dominate the board.
In which areas could you be looking to for action-taking? Well, can I take small actions to maximize on my existing network and systems? Can I take small actions to expand on my professional network? Are my friends just for gossip and brunch, or is there any way we can build the friendship into a mutually beneficial relationship? Or are there dormant networks that you may have neglected recently? Perhaps it’s time to reconnect?
At a very broad level, this is the opportunity that the 2024 Year of the Wood Dragon is presenting to you, the Wu Earth Day Master. Will there be feelings of pressure? High possibility. How well you work this, will depend on how open you are to tap into your own hidden resources. Hence, grace under pressure. Because in 2024, the Wu Earth Day Master will be required to dig deep.

After a season as the Year Breaker, the Rooster’s rebuild begins in 2024 year of the Wood Dragon or Jia Chen.
2024 ROOSTER: GRAND DUKE COMBINATION, PEACH BLOSSOM, ADVISOR
2023 was the Year Breaker for you. A year of change. There wasn’t much support for you. For some Roosters, it was a particularly painful year. I’m really sorry you had to experience that and I hope that by the time you are reading this post, you have gotten back on your feet again.
2024, hands down, is a year for relationship building. Because of the Grand Duke Combination. This is wealth through partnerships, it’s the opportunity to cooperate and more importantly, leverage on other people’s resources. How to use the Grand Duke Combination? By creating new contacts and partnerships.
Supporting this Grand Duke Combination is the Peach Blossom star. Likability is about to increase! This is a given, if you want access to other people’s resources, at the very least they must like you, right? Also, good news on the romance department as this star brings romance luck as well.
There is also access to nobleman, in the form of a minor nobleman star called the Advisor. It’s a minor star, why nitpick? Let’s take it anyway.
2024 ROOSTER: CASCADING CLOUD AND FLYING BLADE
What could possibly halt this relationship building and likability? The Cascading Cloud and Flying Blade stars.
The Cascading Cloud represents resentment. Apparently, you may still be holding a grudge from the challenges of the previous year. And from this resentment and grudge, out comes the Flying Blade which represents disputes and arguments.
These two together means, ‘I’m resentful and I’m picking fights’. Which will make it hard for the Peach Blossom to work for you.
Awareness is the key here. When we become aware of something, we gain control.
2024 ROOSTER: EARTH RELIEF AND MONTHLY VIRTUE
At the same time, you also have the support of two problem-dissolving stars – Earth Relief and Monthly Virtue. Both of these stars dissipate negative energy. How can we help them along? Firstly, by being positive, and secondly by being pro-active about nipping problems in the bud instead of allowing them to fester.
2024 ROOSTER: LESSER CONSUMER, DEATH CHARM, AND SALTY POOL
What other negative stars do we need to be aware of? When you are the Year Breaker, it comes with the Great Consumer. The following year always follows with the Lesser Consumer. This is small money going out. Budgeting issues.
Budgeting issues caused by the Death Charm which represent being blindsided by unexpected events that may cost you some money, and Salty Pool which is the star of instant gratification.
If you are a business owner, you can use this bunch to do market testing or A/B testing. If you are not a business owner, be extra disciplined about your budget, and stay away from those annual sales.
2024 ROOSTER: SKY FORTUNE
Ultimately, we want to head towards the Sky Fortune which promotes a harmonious relationship with the people around you. It promotes having great relationships where you support and are supported in turn. That’s the goal for 2024. And where are we heading towards? 2025 where there is promotion luck to be had.
NOT PROPHETIC IN NATURE
But please remember, this is not prophetic in nature. Also, this way of presenting the Zodiac stars is just one possible permutation of how things can flow. It can happen in any way. The goal of these annual posts is not to scare you. The goal is to show you what you want to avoid. These are neither promises nor threats! They’re just here to show you possible outcomes. So I hope, that in reading this, you learn to accentuate the positives and sidestep the negatives.
ROOSTER IN THE YEAR PILLAR
With the Peach Blossom supporting the Grand Duke Combination, you’d better be networking and building relationships. The Year Pillar governs our industry, market, social networks, and social media. Show yourself. Tell people what you do. Talk about your talents. Don’t be shy. The stronger and more valuable your network, the better! For the Rooster, 2024 is all about building relationships. And who knows? Maybe you net yourself a mentor?
In fact, you actually have two Peach Blossom stars. Because the Sky Fortune can also create a similar effect in the sense that it promotes harmonious relationships. These two working together can help enhance your reputation. Because you are super likable. What we want is to have people in the industry or in the market talking about you.
Same goes for the romance department, with the Peach Blossom in the Year, you’d better be out there.
ROOSTER IN THE MONTH PILLAR
The theme of building relationships carries across the board, regardless of where the Rooster is in your Chart.
For the business owners, if the Rooster governs your career and business pillar, there are possibilities of gaining access or creating new partnerships where you get to leverage on the strengths of your partners. Also, with the budget-related stars, you can use the Lesser Consumer in a positive way by investing in test marketing. Or small advertising campaigns that are calculated to generate quick conversion – like one-off sale.
For career professionals, how about we use the Grand Duke Combo to align ourselves with the boss? Find out what are the company’s plans for the near future. How can we contribute? Conversations like these are important. It can be a great year if you are willing to contribute. Don’t be calculative. This is a year to go above and beyond.
Alternatively, we build great relationships with our colleagues and the people involved in our work. Some money might be spent. Lunches cost money!
ROOSTER IN THE DAY PILLAR
The Day pillar represents ourselves and our close intimate relationships.
If you are single and looking, with the Peach Blossom and Lesser Consumer together, maybe we invest some money to improve on our external packaging? Of course, only if you can afford to do so, ok? The Lesser Consumer doesn’t require you to splurge. There is romance luck, if you are looking. There’s a higher chance that the romance luck could be triggered through the match-making efforts of your close circle of friends and family.
If partnered and in a committed relationship, it’s time to inject an element of spice, zest and surprise back into your relationship. Here, I draw your attention to the Cascading Cloud. Find a way to release any resentments over any ongoing issues or arguments. Either we use the Monthly Virtue to quickly resolve any misunderstandings, or we use the Earth Relief to dissolve the lingering anger, resentment and negative emotions. Peace in the household is the goal here.
ROOSTER IN THE HOUR PILLAR
The Hour Pillar represents a whole mixed bag of stuff. This is the legacy pillar. So it covers our investments, children, staff, ideas, aspirations, dreams.
In this instance, where investment is concerned, the Earth Relief is very good for buying and selling property. So you may want to keep your eyes peeled for a sweet investment deal because there is some investment and asset accumulation luck. But again, the caution, please – just because there is some investment luck is not reason to get reckless. You still need to do your part by learning and strategizing. Eyes wide open, guys!
With the Rooster in the hour, you could also see a scenario where your ideas are finally finding traction. People are liking your ideas, and therefore, creating a possibility of working together with you.
2024 for the Monkey zodiac brings possible growth, but there is no nobleman support. Means, you gotta do it yourself. In 2024, it’s all about being pro-active and taking independent action for the Monkey.
2024 MONKEY: THREE HARMONY
2023 was a year of new directions for the Monkey. There were opportunities to explore and expand into unfamiliar territory. There were challenges, but I hope that most Monkeys found them surmountable.
Granted, it’s not a whole lot of stars in 2024, but in this case, less is more!
Having grown, contributed and proven your worth in 2023, there might come opportunities to be a part of even larger projects and collaboration. That’s the effect of the Three Harmony. The Three Harmony is very powerful. It connects your Chart to the external environment. For one year, you are energetically linked to the external environment. With this, you can better understand what your market wants and you are able to deliver exactly what the market needs.
This Three Harmony can also give you access to powerful noble people. Yes, even though there are no nobleman stars in 2024! Mentors, decision-makers, industry leaders – somehow, it’s easier for them to notice you in 2024.
2024 MONKEY: THREE STAGES
The Three Stages is a career star pure and simple. Translation: climbing the corporate ladder, increase in your ranking, good reputation and promotion luck. Traditionally, it’s used for career professionals as it represents moving up the bureaucracy.
For business owners, this can represent increasing the value of your brand. How to increase? By collaborating or getting into bigger projects with other visible players.
Now the effect of the Three Harmony and Three Stages can be interchangeable. You might get in on a big project that leads to a promotion. Or, you could get promoted which then gives you access to the bigger projects.
But what could make the year unpleasant? Two groups of challenges – legal matters and people matters.
2024 MONKEY: OFFICER CHARM, YEAR CHARM, FLYING CHARM
Both the Officer Charm and Year Charm signify legal problems. All of us, regardless of business owners or career professionals, need to sign off on documents in our daily work. These two are saying, ‘read before you sign’. These are hassles caused by documentation. Maybe a form filled wrongly, missing important documents, and some such.
The Flying Charm is about fines. These are penalties, taxes, speeding or parking tickets, court summons. With this in the Chart, be extra careful when you are filing your tax returns. Keep your documentations in pristine order. Make sure you pay your permits or speeding tickets on time.
These legal stars require our meticulous attention. Because apparently, the Monkey, is plenty distracted with bigger things in 2024.
2024 MONKEY: BACK POKING, EARTH SHA, FIVE GHOST
The next bunch, people matters. You are climbing the ladder. Of course, you may incite Envy, Jealousy, Haters! That’s the Back Poking star. People talking about you behind your back. Gossip, slander, rumour-mongers.
The Earth Sha represents obstacles at work. Basically, passive aggression. Lack of cooperation. If you have the Monkey in the hour, maybe even insubordination.
This relentless daily assault from people matters can be very draining. So comes the Five Ghost. You feel suspicion and fear. Basically, you feel like you are not secured in your position yet. Because of that, you become extra jumpy, anxious, stressed!
Ironically, the answer to this people matters lies in the other group of negative stars. Documentation. When staff or colleagues are being uncooperative, in a corporate setting, the only thing you can do is make sure that everything is written in black and white. Had a discussion with someone? Follow up with an email. Need someone to do something? Create a paper trail – send an email. No verbal instructions. Everything in black and white.
Because wouldn’t it be such a waste to allow these petty people to get in the way of your growth when there is such a clear opportunity? Yes, it can be lonely. You might lose your lunch buddies. But if they cannot be happy for you when your career grows, are they friends to begin with?
NOT PROPHETIC IN NATURE
But please remember, this is not prophetic in nature. Also, this way of presenting the Zodiac stars is just one possible permutation of how things can flow. It can happen in any way. The goal of these annual posts is not to scare you. The goal is to show you what you want to avoid. These are neither promises nor threats! They’re just here to show you possible outcomes. So I hope, that in reading this, you learn to accentuate the positives and sidestep the negatives.
MONKEY IN THE YEAR PILLAR
Remember that elevator pitch? Start working on it. The Year Pillar represents our industry, market, social and professional networks, acquaintances, social media, etc.
There are collaboration opportunities in this area of your life. Your job, is to be pro-active about seeking out these opportunities. These could be actual projects, or even chances to get featured on someone else’s platform. Example, you are an upcoming lawyer who got featured with a popular LawTuber. Something like that. In 2024? Look for someone with the Snake.
Where social media is concerned, there will be some risks of drawing the attention of trolls, haters and cyber bullying. But the impact may not be so big unless you are a bona fide celebrity. Ironically, being controversial can enhance someone’s reputation. We’ve all seen that happen time and time again where the person’s career took off because he or she were infamous instead of merely famous. Because in Period 9, indifference is worse than hate.
MONKEY IN THE MONTH PILLAR
Promotion luck is the strongest when the Monkey is in the Month. Because this is literally the career and business pillar.
Again, there are opportunities for collaboration that could lead to increasing the value of your brand. As your star ascends, of course you might attract the envy of others. In this case, the highest chance would come from your competitors.
This is nothing new. Even in 2023, you faced the Robbery Sha where people have been trying to steal your leads, ideas, copy your methods, etc. The answer for this is to keep innovating. People can steal ideas. They cannot steal your execution.
Also, look for opportunities to network with the bosses. I will admit, this set of stars can be quite hellish if you are in the middle management position. Pressure from the top, and resistance from your peers. No support. So when you get in on the big projects, you need to ensure that you are able to contribute independently. Which means you don’t rely on anyone else to complete your part of the projects.
MONKEY IN THE DAY PILLAR
If the Monkey governs your Day Pillar, the collaboration opportunities here may not be professional in nature. They might not be necessarily directly connected with your work. Instead, they could be personal projects for something that you are crazy passionate about. Because the Day Pillar governs our personhood, our physical wellbeing. It used to just govern our spouse. But today, especially in Period 9, the Day Pillar is increasingly becoming the personal pillar.
A great example of this would be volunteer work or charitable projects. On the one hand, you are contributing to society, and on the other, you increase your personal value as well. The easy way out, of course, is just to donate money. You can still do that. But taking this one step further, when we donate our time and talents, you may find access to network with other sponsors of the charitable organization. So while you are doing good, you are also benefitting. Win-win!
In this case, being extra careful with your personal documentation like tax, insurance, banking documentations, is a must. Make sure you pay all your statutory payments like tax on time. Income tax, road tax, driving permits, licenses.
And no speeding on the road. Because the likelihood of getting fined is higher.
MONKEY IN THE HOUR PILLAR
Monkey in the Hour is interesting. This pillar represents a whole bunch of stuff – your ideas, aspirations, mindset, thinking pattern, investment, children and staff.
Let’s go with staff first. ‘Someone’ is being sulky because ‘someone’ thinks they are ready for a promotion. Someone in your staff. Your job is to assess and see if they can be promoted. Otherwise, the risk of insubordination is pretty high here.
In terms of mindset, your own fear of what other people will say, may stop you from going for the bigger opportunities. Find a way to negate that self-talk.
If you have the Goat in your Bazi Chart, come 2024, you will have cornered the market on the nobleman stars. Four – count ‘em… 1, 2, 3, 4. What to do with them?
2024 GOAT: PIERCING ROPE AND GREAT MOON
The Goat was the problem solver of 2023. With the Relief God and Sky Relief coming together. There was also promotion luck. But basically, in 2023, the Goat probably gained confidence in your problem-solving skills. At the very least.
Problem-solver in 2023, obviously means that your problem-solving skills will continue to be tested in 2024. But you are not left defenseless, you know? For every issue, there seems to be a solution! The question is whether or not you are in the position to activate these stars.
The Piercing Rope creates fear and insecurity caused by external pressure. Most likely, economic pressure. Inflation or recession. Especially vulnerable are any Wood Day Masters with the Goat in their Chart. Prices are increasing, the salary’s not keeping up. Now, the feeling is one thing, but if it forces you to become reckless in your pursuit of wealth – for example, buying into money games looking for quick wins and easy money – then it can bring problems.
What can counter it? The Moon. This is a nobleman star. Specifically, it is a star of entrepreneurial ideas. What it’s saying is that you may be feeling economic pressure, but you may have some ideas on how to counter it. Maybe start a side gig? Or look into how you can generate new income streams.
This Moon nobleman star can be internal, which is your own ideas. Or it can also come in the form of other people. Example, you are chatting with an acquaintance, and somehow the conversation triggers an idea for you. When this star is available to you, need to be paying attention.
2024 GOAT: HOOK SPIRIT AND THE HEAVENLY YI
Next comes the Hook Spirit. This represents problems from the past that you may have swept under the rug. It represents stagnation. Maybe, things are not going smoothly because you are insisting on living in the past. It can also represent stagnation caused by projection of past failure. And this projection is stopping you from moving forward. Alternatively, if you got promoted in 2023, this Hook Spirit could be referring to the fact that you inherited a whole can of worms.
To counter its effects, we have the Heavenly Yi. This is, pure and simple, a nobleman star. Talk to somebody, get a coach – don’t just stay stuck, talk it through, find someone to bounce your concerns on and brainstorm your ideas. Hey, I’m available! Booking link at the end of this post.
2024 GOAT: GREAT ASSEMBLY AND THE HEAVENLY NOBLEMAN
The Great Assembly talks about loopholes in your system. Wealth leaking out caused by either hiring the wrong people, buying into the wrong solutions that are obviously not working, could even talk about how you run your financial life. Maybe subscribing to unnecessary subscriptions?
To counter, we have the Heavenly Nobleman. This is a minor nobleman star, but it is considered a wealth nobleman. Activating this requires steady hard work. It requires us to be present and meticulous about how we run our own financial systems. Being detail-oriented about how we spend our money, as distasteful as that activity may be.
2024 GOAT: DISASTER SHA, SKY GRACIOUS, AND SKY SHA
The Disaster Sha represents obstacles. It tests our abilities to adapt to the changing environment. This is a ‘no pain no gain’ type of star. Again, it is being countered by the Sky Gracious – yet another nobleman star in your corner. The Sky Gracious enhances likability and intelligence. The intelligence to know when to fight, and when to retreat, for example.
Finally, the Sky Sha. This is asking you to pay more attention to your family’s health and wellbeing. Something in your environment may be causing disharmony or illness.
I’m not gonna minimize these effects. Nor am I going to victim blame. These negative stars can be quite stressful. Faced with these, it is easy to feel overwhelmed. Hence, the need for so many nobleman stars.
2024 GOAT: HEAVENLY OFFICER
So where is all this problem-solving leading to? To the Heavenly Officer. You are being given a chance to lead and influence. This star, can lead to more promotion for the career professionals, or for the business owners, it leads to a good reputation.
The Heavenly Officer talks about gaining a reputation as someone with the ability to lead people and organizations past uncertain economic outlooks, stagnation, loopholes, and changing external environments. To activate this, focus on improving on your leadership and influencing skills.
And while you lead, with so many nobleman stars supporting you, be teachable, be adaptable.
Because in 2025, comes the opportunities for more visibility.
NOT PROPHETIC IN NATURE
But please remember, this is not prophetic in nature. Also, this way of presenting the Zodiac stars is just one possible permutation of how things can flow. It can happen in any way. The goal of these annual posts is not to scare you. The goal is to show you what you want to avoid. These are neither promises nor threats! They’re just here to show you possible outcomes. So I hope, that in reading this, you learn to accentuate the positives and sidestep the negatives.
GOAT IN THE YEAR PILLAR
The Year Pillar governs our external world – our industry, market, social networks, social media. So if you have the Goat in your Year Pillar, with so many nobleman stars, there is only one solution – network! Get out there, talk, exchange ideas, contribute ideas, build the relationships, let others get to know you.
In terms of reputation building, what could you be talking about on social media or during networking events? Well, apparently, your external world is interested in issues like stagnation, systemic problems, governmental and environmental pressures. In short, ESG – environmental, social and governance.
If you are an expert in ESG, 2024 is your year to do something that can enhance that reputation. If you are not an expert in ESG, in 2024, should you network, there is a high chance you can meet these experts and learn from them.
GOAT IN THE MONTH PILLAR
Brace for a busy, challenging and interesting year if the Goat governs your Month, which is the career and business pillar. Most important of all, build your team. It’s easy to feel overwhelmed when these stars fall in your career pillar. So make sure you have backing.
Allow other people to help you. When we have so many nobleman stars, our job is to be helpable.
Also important to have contingency plans in case of breakdowns and disruptions to your supply chain. Pay close attention to loopholes in your business systems. I’m talking about shoring up or strengthening the weak links. For example, if without that one thing, you cannot run your business – 2024 is the year to find a solution for that.
Be open to new ways of doing business. This is not the time to get stuck in the past. Be adaptable and flexible where your career and business is concerned. It’s not about being direction-less. It’s about the realization that there are multiple ways to get to a certain outcome.
GOAT IN THE DAY PILLAR
The Day Pillar governs our personal wellbeing, physical wellbeing, as well as our intimate relationships – specifically, our partners.
Here, the priority falls on stress management. Find healthy ways to de-stress as opposed to carrying your stress back home, radiating all that negative energy, and affecting everyone else who lives with you in your household.
Also within your relationship or marriage, some past unresolved issues may be cropping up again. Old arguments, for instance.
Can you choose to be the nobleman to each other? Be each other’s comfort and sounding board? If you are in a relationship, this is a time to share each other’s burden, and therefore, making it lighter and making the relationship stronger – because we become each other’s nobleman. Has external pressure ever caused the end of a relationship? More times than we can count!
GOAT IN THE HOUR PILLAR
The Hour Pillar governs our ideas, aspirations, investments, and the people under our care – typically, children. It also governs our thinking pattern or mindset.
With the Goat in the hour, seems like there is a high chance that you may be more inclined to start a side gig in 2024. Why? Because you feel the external pressure coming together with the Moon which represents entrepreneurial ideas.
When it comes to investments, you may want to re-look into your existing investment vehicles and the way you make your investment decisions. Is it time to update your investment strategies by learning more? After all, you have so many nobleman willing to teach you.
But in the Hour, for business owners – be extra careful about the Great Assembly. Someone in your staff might be taking advantage of loopholes in your system.
One of the more interesting zodiac signs in 2024 is the Horse. No doubt, there are plenty of challenges to resolve, but there is an out. To make the best of the Horse in 2024, you must be open to new solutions.
2024 HORSE: RELIEF GOD, SKY RELIEF, AND TAIJI NOBLEMAN
The Horse had nobleman luck in 2023 but also faced a lot of external pressure to hustle.
Now in 2024, comes three powerful problem solving stars. When you have these many problem-solving stars, obviously, you have problems to solve.
Both the Relief God and Sky Relief are problem dissolvers. They smooth over difficult events.
To support the Relief God and Sky Relief, you also have the Taiji Nobleman that enhances wisdom and intuition. Somehow, you just know what to do, when to do, how to do.
These three can’t work by themselves. They need your input. And the solution is very simple – just be open to solutions. Don’t dismiss anything out of hand. Give every idea due consideration – especially your own ideas!
It is very human to dismiss our own ideas. As humans, we tend to place more weightage on other people’s input as opposed to our own. With the Taiji Nobleman, you must be aware of this tendency in 2024.
These three together is about fostering a curious and open mind. Approaching problem solving with a sense of curiosity and eagerness to explore different perspectives, embrace diverse ideas and seek out alternative solutions.
2024 HORSE: PRISON INMATE AND INSTABILITY
What can stop this from happening? The Prison Inmate and Instability stars. When you plot your own Bazi Chart using any of the plotters, you might find the Prison Inmate and Instability further down the list. Naturally, most people will think that they are not too important.
But in 2024, being aware of their effects is very important. Because these two are the ones that can block the effects of the Relief God, Sky Relief and Taiji Nobleman.
As mentioned, using the Relief God, Sky Relief and Taiji Nobleman, requires us to be open to different types of solution. The Prison Inmate puts blinders before our eyes. It’s a feeling of being stuck – physically, mentally, emotionally. Of seeing things from a very limited perspective. It’s the urge to stand still when you should be moving. It causes inertia and a lack of motivation and helplessness.
What can we do to overcome this? Again, it’s all about the mindset. The marker for the Prison Inmate are two words: ‘No Choice!’ If you hear yourself thinking that, or even verbalizing those two words frequently, it’s time to encourage yourself to examine things from different perspectives. There is always a choice. Doing nothing is also a choice.
Next is Instability. Basically, from your point of view, things are not stable. Life is sometimes good, sometimes bad. This can cause emotional instability and mood swings. This one can be a drama queen. When added together with the Prison Inmates, there seems to be a lamentable tendency to catastrophize.
2024 HORSE: CALAMITY SHA
If you can overcome the Prison Inmate and Instability, the problems brought about by the rest of the negative stars become mere hassles. They can be solved.
Let’s examine the types of problems that you may be called upon to solve in 2024.
The Calamity Sha is a mishaps star. It can cause an outflow of wealth because there may potentially be small accidents, illnesses, maybe damage to your house, or damage caused by natural disasters such as floods. Make sure your insurance is up to date. It can also mean disharmony in the home – basically, Calamity Sha is hinting that you may have a Feng Shui problem.
2024 HORSE: SEPARATING EDGE AND GREAT SHA
Separating Edge also talks about relationship problems. It affects your ability to connect with other people. Basically, the Horse has become a little tone deaf in 2024. Diplomacy is the key.
Great Sha is a lot like the White Tiger. It calls for a more conservative approach to people. There is potential of petty people and petty gossip. Bad if their presence deviates you from your intended path. Basically, this represents obstacles that may stop you from moving forward. This can have a big impact if you are stuck in Prison Inmate mode.
2024 HORSE: FLYING CHASTE AND BLOOD KNIFE
The Flying Chaste and Blood Knife are blood-related accidents. This just requires presence of mind when you are driving or handling sharp objects. And as always, an easy out with the Blood Knife is to visit the dentist. Since blood has to flow… we might as well have nice teeth in return!
2024 HORSE: FUNERAL DOOR AND EARTH FUNERAL
In general, the Funeral Door and Earth Funeral points at the possibility of hearing bad news. They can also mean that your immunity level or energy level is lower in 2024, so more care must be taken for your health and physical wellbeing.
2024 HORSE: RED CHAMBER
And then we have the Red Chamber. Traditionally, this is a negative star because it represents scandals caused by lust and romance.
But here’s the thing, the Red Chamber can be a good Peach Blossom star. Good for sales. Because a Peach Blossom star is still a star of likability and attention. And Period 9 is the attention economy. Use this wisely, it can help improve your year.
2024 HORSE: EIGHT SEATS
All these problem solving are leading you towards the Eight Seats. It brings access to decision makers. It creates the opportunity to become a key person within an organization or an industry. Because apparently, you are the problem fixer!
And where are we heading towards for 2025? The ability to make an even greater impact.
NOT PROPHETIC IN NATURE
But please remember, this is not prophetic in nature. Also, this way of presenting the Zodiac stars is just one possible permutation of how things can flow. It can happen in any way. The goal of these annual posts is not to scare you. The goal is to show you what you want to avoid. These are neither promises nor threats! They’re just here to show you possible outcomes. So I hope, that in reading this, you learn to accentuate the positives and sidestep the negatives.
HORSE IN THE YEAR PILLAR
With the Horse in your Year Pillar that represents your industry, market, social media and social networks, from your perspective, it’s a noisy world out there. A lot of arguments, conflicting opinions, controversies, scandals. There is also a danger that may accidentally trigger the trolls because of a tone-deaf post.
The answer – diplomacy. We use the Relief God and Sky Relief to pour oil over troubled waters. Be the voice of reason.
Horse in the Year Pillar in 2024 is also an opportunity to be known as a problem-solver. To earn a reputation as someone who can fix problems.
HORSE IN THE MONTH PILLAR
With the Horse in the month, you may find that miscommunications keep cropping up in your work environment. Basically, nobody is on the same page.
The problems to solve, apparently, are human-related problems. People not seeing eye to eye. Somebody not talking to everybody. Nobody wants to compromise.
Human-related problems are the hardest to solve, aren’t they? If things get broken, we can buy a replacement. But people working at cross-purposes is hard to resolve. If you are the one who can be the bridge and get everyone on the same page. Do you not think that you will be super valuable?
Great soft skills to have with the Horse in your Month – as a mediator or facilitator. When you attend a meeting, somehow the voices of dissent are muted. Somehow you manage to get people working together again. Isn’t that a valuable skill to have?
HORSE IN THE DAY PILLAR
If you have Horse in the Day Pillar, the indications are looking at harmony in your home and personal relationships. For some reason, in 2024, you seem to feel like there is no harmony in your relationships. Everyone is fighting each other at home. Could be siblings disagreeing with each other, maybe parents with children, the family is no longer aligned.
This is where the Prison Inmate can be a threat – you feel like you have no choice but to accept this situation. And then the situation escalates until being at home is no longer pleasant.
I would love to ask you to be the active mediator in this case, but I’m also mindful of the Funeral Door and Earth Funeral. Managing family disharmony saps a lot of energy. So I’m going to go against conventional advice here, and suggest that whatever happens, look after your own personal wellbeing first. Don’t martyr yourself, please. Because you can only be a part of the solution if you are not a part of the problem.
But how to use these stars to grow? Be systematic about tackling problems in your life. Solve what you can first. One step at a time.
HORSE IN THE HOUR PILLAR
The Horse in the Hour Pillar is the most interesting. The Hour Pillar can represent our thoughts, investments, children, staff, ideas, aspirations and ideals.
Let’s look at this from the mindset perspective. Your ideas may be a bit too contradictory to the norm in 2024. Basically, you may be too future-forward. Others can’t keep up. They can’t accept your ideas because they are not ready yet or they don’t see what you see. Find new ways to communicate your ideas.
For investments – minimize your risks because of the Calamity Sha that may cause instability in the market. Please make sure you have capital protection in place.
From the perspective of children, teaching your kids how to cope with social pressure could be your job for 2024.
If you have the Snake zodiac in your Bazi Chart, come 2024, the most powerful nobleman star is coming to you. The question is, what are we going to do with it?
2024 SNAKE: GREAT SUN
Let’s start with a quick recap of 2023 where the Snake was encouraged to explore new directions.
In 2024, at pride of place, of course is the Great Sun! In Feng Shui, we do the Great Sun activation every year for our house. It protects the home from any accidental triggers. In Bazi, this Great Sun represents the ultimate nobleman luck.
Now before we start looking left, right and centre for our nobleman, let’s take this one step further and put ourselves in the position of the noble person. Receiving noble help is a blessing, right? Being in the position to be the noble person is double the blessing.
Like the Sun that gives warmth and light without reservation, with zero scarcity thinking, with no expectations. When you do that, it leads on to better things ahead.
2024 SNAKE: INTELLIGENCE AND BRIGHT HALL
This Nobleman star of yours is being supported by the Intelligence star. With this, we can do three things – we can, of course, learn something new, increase our value, upskill… or, we can teach what we know. Like the Sun, we share what we know.
When you do that, the Bright Hall kicks in. This is a fame star. People begin to notice you. You shine brighter. You become the go-to person for advice.
In conclusion, with Great Sun, Intelligence star and Bright Hall coming for you, it’s time to stop hiding your light under a bushel.
2024 SNAKE: SKY HAPPINESS AND HEAVENLY CHEF
When people start noticing you, the invitations start pouring in. That’s the Sky Happiness and Heavenly Chef. They are networking stars. They both mean good food and drinks to be had. Happy events in the offing – parties, shared meals, etc. All the fun stuff!
2024 SNAKE: FIVE PROSPERITY
Which then leads us to the Five Prosperity. This is typically described as the opportunity to gain multiple income sources. Which means that, there is a chance to explore. You are being given options. Options are great! The worst possible thing to happen is when one is left with no choice.
And this Five Prosperity can easily carry you into 2025 when YOU will be the Grand Duke.
2025 SNAKE: ROBBERY SHA
In this particular scenario for the Snake, the Robbery Sha can carry several different impacts. One possibility is the most realistic – I lose money because of friends. Of course! If you are invited to a wedding, guess what, money goes out in the form of red packets or gifts. Even if you eschew all wedding invitations, networking still cost money.
Second possibility, you may talk too much while bathing in the limelight of flattery and adoration. So, be smart about sharing your ideas.
The third possibility may come from scarcity thinking. You reject all invitations because you think people are going to steal your ideas. Ergo, you automatically classify networking as a complete waste of time. While we do not have to accept every invitation that comes our way, certain networking opportunities can be valuable to create new growth avenues.
2025 SNAKE: SKY EMPTINESS
At this point, the Sky Emptiness starts taking over. This influence of the Sky Emptiness creates unreasonably high expectations. Big talk. Big talk from either you or other people. At its most dangerous, it can cause a loss of credibility because you over-promised and under-delivered. Or it may cause you to feel that networking is a waste of time because everyone is just talking big, but delivering nothing.
Here’s the trick with a nobleman star. It’s nothing new. I’ve shared this plenty of times. When you are looking for a nobleman, the first thing you need to have is the criteria for said nobleman. You can’t just randomly go out to networking events and just see where it will lead you. Inevitably, this leads to disappointment.
When it comes to nobleman luck, you must be very clear about what you need. Someone with contacts? Knowledge? Skillset? That criteria must be in your head first, so that you don’t waste time.
2025 SNAKE: SOLITARY AND BAD QI
Should the Robbery Sha and Sky Emptiness take over, the Solitary star comes along. “I do my own thing. I don’t need nobody. Don’t invite me. I don’t do weddings.”
And then we end up with the Bad Qi – feeling sluggish, lame, stagnant.
If you go this route, the Grand Duke year in 2025 will be unnecessarily hard.
When you look at this permutation as a whole, the conclusion for the Snake is very simple. 2024 is the year you improve on your influencing abilities. Your communication skills. Your ability to persuade, convince and convert.
NOT PROPHETIC IN NATURE
But please remember, this is not prophetic in nature. Also, this way of presenting the Zodiac stars is just one possible permutation of how things can flow. It can happen in any way. The goal of these annual posts is not to scare you. The goal is to show you what you want to avoid. These are neither promises nor threats! They’re just here to show you possible outcomes. So I hope, that in reading this, you learn to accentuate the positives and sidestep the negatives.
SNAKE IN THE YEAR PILLAR
With the Snake in the Year, is literally like being an influencer. Of course, the first advice is to network. Because the Year pillar governs your social and professional circles. It also governs your market and industry. Invest the time, build the relationships, start connecting with other people.
What else? Can you get famous this year. How? Get active on social media. Be proactive about attracting more followers. How? By sharing information – you be the nobleman first. You give value first.
Of course, you could be thinking, I don’t know anything. Trust me, you know something.
SNAKE IN THE MONTH PILLAR
For the Snake in the Month, time management is the key. Here, the impact of the Sky Emptiness might be felt. When people trust your reputation, you get more projects. Be picky about what you say yes to. Be strategic about it. Do not over-promise and under-deliver.
How else can use these stars in the Month pillar? Create a happy environment at work! People are more productive when they are happy. Create a warm and vibrant environment where everyone is celebrated for their contributions. It’s ridiculous how many bosses forget to do that.
Still using the Great Sun – make a promise to yourself now – where possible, every person that leaves your orbit feels a little bit happier, lighter, and more hopeful. Not everyone has this ability to make people feel good about themselves. But it’s a skill that can be developed. Being easy to work with is a highly under-rated skill.
SNAKE IN THE DAY PILLAR
For the Snake in the Day, the stars that may have a bigger impact are the Sky Happiness and Robbery Sha.
Sky Happiness means happy events. In the olden days, it means happy life events such as weddings, having babies, those type of stuff. That applies to you too. Maybe you have something joyful to celebrate in your personal life!
If you are getting married or having babies, guess what – money goes out. Cue, the Robbery Sha.
But maybe you are single. Could this be the year you rebuild your relationship with your family and friends? But here’s the thing with the Robbery Sha in the day – the risk of retail therapy is also quite high. Don’t spend money just to prove a point. If you’re gonna spend money, spend it to upskill and improve yourself.
Is there relationship luck in this case? Yes! Because you are noticeable. So maybe money spent on packaging yourself?
SNAKE IN THE HOUR PILLAR
With the Snake in your Investment Pillar (your Hour Pillar), explore and seek out diverse investment options. Be very careful here. I’m going to get very specific. The Robbery Sha can mean investment scam. OK to explore, learn, test the waters, find out what’s out there, but do not go all in.
Of course, from a personal development point of view, you can also invest into learning a new skill. Because the Intelligence star enhances your ability to absorb complex information.
Because the Hour Pillar is also your children’s pillar – you could focus on using shared experiences to build an enriching relationship with your kids.
