FENG SHUI BASICS | FU WEI DIRECTION

Let’s explore the Fu Wei or Stability direction.

You know when we are working, we always say that we need to get into the zone? That mental space where focus and productivity comes effortlessly? Your Fu Wei direction is that zone!

Who is this useful for? Students – young students, MBA students, PHD students. If your work requires deep thought and concentration – for example, writers. It’s the type of work that doesn’t require interaction, just me and my brain type of work.

Ok, let’s unpack the benefits of facing our Fu Wei or Stability direction, shall we?

Gua 1 (North)

Facing this direction enhances self-awareness, you gain in wisdom, and by gaining more wisdom, helps you with your self-healing, especially emotional healing, and self-transformation.

Gua 2 and Gua 5 men (Southwest)

This enhances internal balance and harmony. It reduces that infernal internal conflict. Quiets down the voices inside, nice!

Gua 3 (East)

The benefit from using this direction is the ability to uncover self-potential. And by doing so, expands your personal horizons. This is so important. So many of us live within a prison of ‘cannot’. I cannot do this because… I cannot do that because… Cannot, cannot, cannot… we limit ourselves. So when a Gua 3 faces your Fu Wei, cannot turns into maybe.

Gua 4 (Southeast)

Enhances your learning capacity. You become a more knowledgeable person. But if you use this direction long term, you must know how to transform knowledge into money, ok?

Gua 6 (Northwest)

This direction increases your sense of purpose. Having a sense of purpose is the key for many success in life. Otherwise, we give up too fast without this sense of purpose.

Gua 7 (West)

This is literally your muse direction. No need to wait for the muse to talk to you, you face the muse and demand for inspiration.

Gua 8 and Gua 5 women (Northeast)

This direction enhances grounding, something very important for the Gua 8. Gua 8 individuals don’t like to feel out of control. When they are out of control, they can’t function.

Gua 9 (South)

Facing this direction ignites your passion, making you more charismatic and inspiring to others.

FENG SHUI BASICS | HUO HAI DIRECTION

Let’s explore the Huo Hai direction. Mishaps. Generally, considered an unfavourable direction. Why?

The crux of facing our personal Huo Hai is that it gives the impression to others that we don’t know what we’re doing.

It doesn’t mean we don’t know our stuff. Not at all. The problems is, people THINK you don’t know what you’re doing. And as a result, your efforts are undermined, the sales don’t happen, projects get cancelled.

But is there a positive aspect to the Huo Hai? Yes, it gives us the courage to experiment and try new things. The ability to learn from our mistakes. Very useful when someone is seeking new experiences. In other words, this is the dare to fail direction. And with this dare to fail, comes a willingness to step outside of our comfort zones and explore new horizons.

That’s why the Huo Hai can be considered as an action sector – it encourages fun, exploration, trial and error.

Before I deep dive into the individual Life gua, just know that the general effect of facing the Huo Hai is the impression of lack of skills or knowledge. In other words, the Huo Hai makes us look like a dunce.

Which means we need to manage this overall effect. People need to know we are experimenting. You need to communicate that you are trying out something new.

Gua 1 (West)

This enhances your curiosity and supports your efforts to gain insight. Become like a curious cat. Keep asking why. Why this, why that. Irritating. Ask too much, people think you don’t know your stuff. But the ability to question, and the willingness to sometimes ask the obvious questions, can be pretty important, isn’t it?

Gua 2 and Gua 5 men (East)

This could affect your anxiety level by adding subtle pressure on you to take action. This is a double-edged sword. On the one hand, it lends urgency to your actions. But on the other hand, it could make you take action before you are ready. This is when mistakes happen.

Gua 3 (Southwest)

This direction is good for pushing boundaries, but you must let people know that you are venturing into uncharted territory.

Gua 4 (Northwest)

Facing this direction fosters your willingness to cooperate with others. Not a bad thing, except that it could make you seem a bit indecisive, a follower instead of a leader

Gua 6 (Southeast)

This enhances your intellectual curiosity. It could make you a better all-rounder but you run the risk of being seen as a jack of all trades, master of none.

Gua 7 (North)

This direction enhances courage in your creative endeavours. Too far ahead of the trend, maybe? Others simply cannot follow. A good example is musicians who grow musically so far ahead of their followers that they lose touch with their fan base.

Gua 8 and Gua 5 women (South)

Gua 8 is typically someone who knows their own minds. Firm! Unchanging! Facing the Huo Hai creates self-doubt, because it potentially affects your clarity of thought

Gua 9 (Northeast)

This direction creates a lot of passions. It can reignite your zest for life but at the same time create competing passions, leading to incomplete projects or tasks.

FENG SHUI BASICS | YAN NIAN DIRECTION

Let’s talk about the Yan Nian or Longevity direction. The outcome of using this direction – great relationships. That’s it. Good PR. It helps you radiate positive energy that attract people, helps to foster authenticity and integrity in your interactions with others. It helps you form and maintain meaningful relationships.

If you have read the Liu Sha post, you wouldn’t be wrong to think, “What’s the diff between this and Liu Sha? Liu Sha is about interpersonal skills as well?”

Well, the key difference between the two is – Liu Sha enhances mass appeal. Yan Nian is more for one-on-one relationship-building. In short, it enhances your social intelligence.

In fact, we often use the Yan Nian in lieu of the Tian Yi. Like for example, it’s not possible for the client to face their Tian Yi, then we use the Yan Nian to help them build positive relationships. Because when you have great relationships, chances are, mentors will come. That’s the rationale.

Who can use this direction well? People working in sales. If you build great relationships with your clients, it will be easier to close deals. Also useful for those working in particularly contentious or political environments – because this helps you create true connections, helps you gain respect of others, people know and understand you.

How is the Yan Nian viewed in traditional Feng Shui? Having babies.

OK, so how can each of the different Life Gua work with your Yan Nian?

Gua 1 (South)

This direction enhances your observation skills. Makes it easier to pick up non-verbal cues from others. When you can easily figure out what people want, it becomes easier to build strong relationships.

Gua 2 and Gua 5 men (Northwest)

This enhances your ability to nurture others. It ramps up your ability to teach, counsel, help others grow along with you. The great relationships happen because everyone is growing together with you.

Gua 3 (Southeast)

Facing this direction helps you enhance your innovativeness, out of the box thinking, and indirectly helps you improve your problem-solving skills

Gua 4 (East)

This improves your creative thinking and storytelling skills. It helps you build great relationships by making you someone fascinating or even compelling to have a conversation with. Because somehow, you always have these amazing insights to share.

Gua 6 (Southwest)

This direction helps to enhance your strategic planning abilities. By nature, Gua 6 individuals in general tend to be quite authoritative. Stern, a little rigid, stickler for rules. Gua 6 is usually all about delegating. So if we can enhance these by improving your strategic planning skills, why not?

Gua 7 (Northeast)

Facing this direction helps enhance your knowledge base. This aura of authority. You know what you are talking about. Creative, but grounded, is the overall effect.

Gua 8 and Gua 5 women (West)

This enhances your efficiency and effectiveness. People like working with efficient and effective people. ‘Nuff said.

Gua 9 (North)

This direction helps you communicate better, become a better negotiator, a more convincing speaker.

So as you can see by now, each of these directions bring different outcomes. It enhances different aspects of our natural abilities and skills. And it really is the easiest way to use Feng Shui in our daily lives.

FENG SHUI BASICS | WU GUI DIRECTION

Let’s talk about the Wu Gui or Five Ghosts direction. Even the name itself is scary, isn’t it? Will you start seeing ghosts if you face this direction? Not really… maybe!

So what’s the Wu Gui direction about? It’s more of an inward-facing direction. It’s about our connection with ourselves. If you face this direction and start seeing ghosts, it means that there are many ghosts inside you. You’re not possessed! Those ghosts are your fears.

What is fear? Fear is imagination done wrong. Then what is faith? Faith is imagination done right.

In general, we don’t really encourage the use of the Wu Gui. The most common outcome of the Wu Gui is the presence of petty people. But again, let’s re-examine the term petty people. Usually equated with gossip, slander, sabotage. But drilled down to the core, the presence of petty people means that people are talking about you.

But why are they talking about you? Perhaps their presence is also to force you to be better? To force you to achieve a breakthrough by seeing things in a more enlightened way, to help you achieve a higher level of consciousness?

But like I said, practitioners would rarely position their clients to face the Wu Gui direction. Not everyone wants or needs to go through those types of challenges to become better.

For the purpose of this post, just for the Wu Gui, rather than talk about the effects, I’m going to position this as the lessons you need to overcome should you find yourself facing your personal Wu Gui directions.

Gua 1 (Northeast)

The lessons of the Wu Gui would likely be learning to find inner peace amidst a sea of social pressure.

Gua 2 and Gua 5 men (Southeast)

The challenge would be to achieve serenity and stability in the face of an ever-changing world

Gua 3 (Northwest)

The lessons here will likely be a test of your courage and inner strength, your ability to endure… to eat shit.

Gua 4 (Southwest)

This may be the hardest of all – challenges to make you breakthrough internalized behaviour, self-limiting beliefs, in short, the mindfuck. Is this necessary or helpful? Well, yes. But is it easy? Hmm… without conscious use of this direction, no – absolutely not. Someone using this direction unaware may suffer more blows to their self esteem.

It’s not an easy direction to deal with. Unlike the Six Killings that is basically a Peach Blossom that needs to be managed.

Gua 6 (East)

The lessons here will usually centre around the topic of ambitions or achievements. Either the pressure to over-achieve; or the pressure to under-achieve. Yes, there is such a thing! When you are perceived as an over-achiever or even just an achiever, you will have plenty of petty people in your life. Haters. Because your achievements threaten them! Jealousy. Haters gonna hate.

Gua 7 (South)

The lessons here may centre around self-expression. Your art. It’s about your ability to shake off constraints to fulfil your creative potential. Creativity cannot be constrained. So the lessons here would be dealing with petty people in the form of critics. Remember – those who can do, those who can’t write reviews!

Gua 8 and Gua 5 women (North)

This one is simple to analyze – emotional resilience. If every word from other people can easily send you on a roller coaster of emotions, we got a problem.

Gua 9 (West)

The presence of petty people could be to show you a better way to connect with people. It’s asking you – is there a need to learn how to better communicate with others.

Quite a doozy, isn’t it? This Wu Gui? Like who needs shrooms when you’ve got Wu Gui.

As you can see, none of these are easy lessons to learn. This is why we don’t purposefully position clients to face the Wu Gui. Because if they are not ready, these lessons could just as easily break them instead of making them better.

FENG SHUI BASICS | TIAN YI DIRECTION

The Tian Yi is the second of the four straight-up favourable Feng Shuidirections. No mixed bags, no double-edged swords.

Plain and simple, the Tian Yi or Heavenly Doctor represents nobility. Mentors. Helpful people. It represents the ability to attract the attention and perhaps even patronage of people with calibre and status. Mentors with the experience, knowledge, and contacts to guide your career or business.

The Tian Yi is also equated with physical vitality. It provides energy for physical and mental recuperation. This is why, when we position someone’s bed, we always try to see if we can tweak their sleeping position so that the top of their heads are pointing to the Tian Yi direction when they are lying down.

But when a Tian Yi direction is used for work, it also helps by improving alertness.

Just on a personal sharing, when I do Bazi consults, I face my personal Tian Yi direction. Because I want to be a noble person to my client. That’s the intention.

Let’s look at the effects of the Tian Yi direction for each of the individual life stars.

But before I unpack each and every one, know that, the general effect of using the Tian Yi direction is an enhancement of your physical and mental well-being. When we are more energetic, we feel more alert, we do better work, all the good stuff.

Gua 1 (East)

Facing this direction brings mentors into your life because you have the courage to brave any challenges or obstacles

Gua 2 and Gua 5 men (West)

This helps improve your connection with people. By building better relationships, we access better mentors.

Gua 3 (North)

Facing this direction helps to attract mentors by enhancing your emotional intelligence. It adds a boost to your EQ, to complement your IQ.

Gua 4 (South)

For the Life Gua 4, this direction enhances your innovativeness. The ability to package your knowledge, skills or talents into an attractive and usable product or service. And in doing so, you attract noble people into your life.

Gua 6 (Northeast)

This direction helps you make better decisions. Improves your decision-making skills. When we make better decisions, our lives improve.

Gua 7 (Southwest)

This will help you magnetize the nobleman help by enhancing your collaboration skills. This is your ability to work well with people. To create a nice working environment for everyone.

Gua 8 and Gua 5 women (Northwest)

Using this direction enhances your problem-solving skills. Also gives others a good impression of your problem-solving skills. Easy to recognize you as a top talent in your industry. And because of that, you receive noble help into your life.

Gua 9 (Southeast)

This direction, for the Li Gua individual, enhances your desire for constant, life-long self-improvement. You become more pro-active in seeking to effect positive change in your life. You are constantly upskilling, learning new stuff, picking up new skills – and because of that, it impresses potential mentors, bringing them into your life.

FENG SHUI BASICS | LIU SHA DIRECTION

Let’s unpack the potential outcomes and effects if you are consistently facing your Liu Sha or Six Killings direction. Usually regarded as an unfavourable direction, but in Period 9, it may not be that unfavourable anymore. Basically, the Liu Sha or Six Killings is a bit of a mixed bag.

Unlike the Jue Ming or Life Threatening facing that is pretty much bad all around, the Liu Sha (Six Killings) has its positive aspects. It depends on how it is used.

On the positive side, this facing enhances interpersonal skills and attractiveness. Which can help enormously when we are trying to build a good reputation. Someone looking to get famous can potentially use this to its maximum effects.

THE PEACH BLOSSOM DIRECTION

But, when we start talking about things like popularity, likability, interpersonal skills… you know we’re heading into the territory of the Peach Blossom.

Which will have you curious as to why on earth is this considered an unfavourable direction? Right? Because, in the past, the Peach Blossom does not have a good rep.

When someone is popular, whether with people of your own gender or the opposite sex, this will tend to be a social-butterfly, a socialite! Does the term ‘flighty’ come to mind? How about ‘player’?

Which then leads to the negative aspects commonly associated with the Six Killings – betrayal, scandals, adultery, legal entanglements – all because this person is too popular.

So in a nutshell, the Liu Sha or Six Killings is usable. But, the effects of the enhanced popularity, needs to be managed. The negative effects show up because we risk attracting the wrong attention.

The old texts consider the Liu Sha a negative because they assume we don’t have the willpower to say no when temptation comes our way.

In Confucian societies, the very concept of popularity is anathema to their principles. Especially for women. When you are too attractive, life can be hard, especially if you are from a poor family.

You need to understand that when you deliberately use this direction to create a certain effect, there may be side effects that you need to be mindful about.

So who can make good use of the Liu Sha? Obviously, influencers!

Gua 1 (Northwest)

Smart use of this direction enhances your adaptability and ability to engage with people in a calm manner.

Gua 2 and Gua 5 men (South)

This amps up your compassion and empathy. Means, when people talk to you, somehow they feel that you are very empathetic. Nice to talk to. So how is this a problem? Maybe too adaptable, too accommodating.

Gua 3 (Northeast)

Using this direction lends an extra oomph to your enthusiasm. Bubbly. People gravitate to those who exude this infectious enthusiasm.

Gua 4 (West)

This direction helps you give the impression of being tactful and diplomatic. Remember, Gua 4 is a studious star. Using your Six Killings direction gives you the opportunity or platform to also convey the knowledge you have (with diplomacy and tact). The downside? You need to prevent being a bit of a know-it-all.

Gua 6 (North)

This lends an aura of confidence to you, but very importantly, this confidence must happen without coming across as being overly arrogant or domineering.

Gua 7 (Southeast)

This one really gets the full effects of the Peach Blossom. Facing your Liu Sha imbues your personality with charm and appeal. The potential downside? Too popular, causing relationship problems.

Gua 8 and Gua 5 women (East)

This direction adds a veneer of reliability and discipline. Someone who has themselves well in control. Not likely to fly off the handle in a moment of fits. But the potential problem could be aloofness.

Gua 9 (Southwest)

Using this helps you become a more persuasive speaker. The potential problem? Too persuasive, like a snake-oil salesman.

Like I said, the Six Killings direction is not all bad. This is not sophistry, ok? This is taking a negative, but finding a positive out of it. But you certainly will have to manage or discourage any unwanted attention. Learn to channel your actions to get the type of attention you need. All of us do online meetings these days. Some even have daily online meetings. These directions are helpful. Being likable is highly under-rated in the corporate and business arena.

Now having said that, I’m sure you’re wondering – do I ever intentionally position my clients to face their Six Killings? The honest answer is No. Not because I’m not confident of these effects. The problem is: the internet and the abundance of information. Far easier to find bad reviews of the Six Killings as opposed to positive reviews. When clients read these types of stuff, they start getting worried. And once that negative seed is implanted, it’s hard to weed out. So I’d rather not go there.

Now again, I’m not denying that the Liu Sha does carry some rather extreme detrimental effects. But for the full negative issues to surface, the landform outside of the Liu Sha sector of your home must also have the same negative formation. For example: a Y-Shaped road junction outside of your house’s Liu Sha sector.

FENG SHUI BASICS | SHENG QI DIRECTION

If a negative facing brings us unnecessary challenges, then a favourable or positive facing will imbue us with support, right? So how does facing the Sheng Qi or Life Generating direction help?

One word answer: Growth. In general, the Sheng Qi or Life Generating is associated with Growth – be it growth in your career, business or even personal life. Because it enhances creative power and helps increase your value. By this, I’m talking about the value you bring to either your career or your business.

Gua 1 (Southeast)

A Gua 1 individual’s life generating direction would be the Southeast. Facing this direction enhances resourcefulness and wisdom to do the right thing. Clarity to know what to do next. Guided by that clarity, life improves.

Gua 2 and Gua 5 men (Northeast)

Life Gua 2’s Sheng Qi direction, and also the Sheng Qi direction for a Gua 5 man would be the Northeast. Facing this direction enhances reliability and helps you stay grounded. Wealth generation occurs because people feel you are reliable. Not flighty. Not passive.

Gua 3 (South)

Life Gua 3’s Sheng Qi direction is South. Facing this direction imbues the Life Gua 3 with resilience and courage. Basically, life improves because you have the resilience to bounce back after any setbacks.

Gua 4 (North)

This enhances versatility, supports you becoming multi-talented, a renaissance man or woman. And because of this versatility, it helps you create income diversity. Nice? Nice!

Gua 6 (West)

Facing this direction enhances your leadership and assertiveness. Basically, lends gravitas to your presence, making it easier to gain respect.

Gua 7 (Northwest)

Facing this direction helps amp up your imagination and creativity. The ability to think out of the box, so that you can find new ways to improve your life (as opposed to staying stuck in a self-imposed silo).

Gua 8 and Gua 5 Women (Southwest)

Facing this direction enhances patience and determination. Basically, this is talking about the discipline to stay on track with your plans.

Gua 9 (East)

Facing your Life Generating enhances charisma. The core of Period 9 is about the attention economy. Charismatic people magnetize attention. Can’t keep your eyes off them. And because you have their attention, you are then able to create opportunities for yourself.
