JANUARY 2024 | JI EARTH DAY MASTER

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.

2024 CHINESE ZODIAC: ROOSTER

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 CHINESE ZODIAC: MONKEY

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

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.

DECEMBER 2023: BING FIRE DAY MASTERS AND THE SPIRIT OF REFLECTION

December 2023’s Jia Zi month represents Indirect Resource sitting on Direct Officer for the Bing Fire Day Masters. As the Indirect Resource is connected to all things spiritual and unconventional, December 2023 is a great month for the Bing Fire Day Masters to celebrate the spirit of reflection. Because beyond the dogma and doctrines, spirituality that comes from a deep understanding and connection with yourself, will create that evocative sense of wellbeing and protection that the Indirect Resource brings.

As the year winds down, Christmas invites us to turn inward, to reflect on the year gone by and the roads traveled. Create a sacred space for reflection, adorned with soft candlelight and cherished mementos. Let the quiet moments be a canvas for introspection, where you journal your thoughts, aspirations, and dreams for the coming year. In these moments of self-reflection, discover the transformative power of looking inward as a source of personal growth and enlightenment.

THE ART OF REFLECTION, BOTH PERSONAL AND SHARED

Amidst the festive cheer, initiate reflective conversations with loved ones. Share the highs and lows of the year, expressing gratitude for the shared journey. In these dialogues, find solace in the collective wisdom that emerges when hearts open to vulnerability. The act of reflection, both personal and shared, becomes a poignant ritual, deepening connections and fostering an environment where the true spirit of Christmas – one of understanding and growth – can flourish.

As the flickering candlelight casts a gentle glow on reflective surfaces, let the beauty of Christmas guide you towards a deeper understanding of self. Embrace the opportunity to release what no longer serves you and to welcome the promise of a new beginning with open arms. In the softness of these reflective moments, discover the resilience that comes from acknowledging the journey you’ve travelled and the strength that lies within the stories you carry.

DECEMBER 2023: YI WOOD DAY MASTERS AND THE SPIRIT OF GRATITUDE

For the Yi Wood Day Master, December 2023’s Jia Zi month comes as Rob Wealth sitting on Indirect Resource. For you, the spirit of gratitude. Because the Rob Wealth always brings along a sense of competition, of wanting to keep up with the Joneses. But behind the retail therapy of the Rob Wealth, lies an altruistic streak that always puts others first.

So as the Christmas trees deck the shopping malls, let gratitude be the melody that accompanies your every step. It’s more than a fleeting acknowledgment; it’s a state of being. Take a gratitude walk, where each step resonates with appreciation for the simple wonders around you – the gentle breeze ruffling its playful fingers through your hair, the grass beneath your feet, and the beauty of nature in all its glory. As you walk, let your heart swell with gratitude for the experiences that shaped your year, the challenges that fortified you, and the people who walked beside you through it all.

Create a tangible embodiment of gratitude with a festive gratitude jar. Encourage family and friends to contribute notes of thankfulness throughout the season. On Christmas day, open the jar and bask in the collective warmth of shared appreciation. From the profound to the mundane, these notes serve as a poignant reminder that gratitude is a gift that multiplies when shared. It transforms ordinary moments into extraordinary blessings, fostering a spirit of thanksgiving that becomes the cornerstone of a truly joyous Christmas.

Amid the sparkle of holiday lights and the comforting aroma of seasonal treats, take a moment to pen heartfelt letters of gratitude. Express your appreciation for the people who have touched your life, the experiences that shaped your journey, and the lessons that brought growth. In the act of writing, discover that gratitude has a beautiful way of not only acknowledging the past but also infusing the present with a profound sense of contentment and peace.

DECEMBER 2023: JIA WOOD DAY MASTERS AND THE SPIRIT OF CONNECTIVITY

As we gather around the warmth of Christmas lights and the love of those dear to us, let’s embark on a soulful journey of recognizing and cherishing the strengths that make each person a masterpiece. This season, let the melody of empathy play in our hearts, weaving a tapestry of understanding and appreciation for the unique notes that each individual brings to our lives.

In the soft glow of festive moments, let’s set aside judgments and open our hearts wide to the symphony of strengths that surround us. In the laughter and shared stories, find the beauty in the differences that paint the canvas of our relationships. This Christmas, let the spirit of acceptance be the guiding star, leading us to a place where we value one another not despite our strengths but because of them.

In the intricate dance of personalities, may we discover the magic that happens when we truly see and honor the gifts that others possess. For in embracing these strengths, we uncover a deeper connection that transcends the superficial, creating a holiday season where the warmth of understanding becomes the greatest gift of all.

ONE-ON-ONE CONNECTIONS

Because in the heart of the festive season, the true magic lies in the connections we forge. Beyond the bustling gatherings and cheery celebrations, delve into the depth of one-on-one connections. Create spaces for intimate conversations, sharing not just in the revelry of the season, but in the vulnerabilities and aspirations that knit us together. Let the laughter, the shared stories, and the quiet moments become threads in the tapestry of connection, weaving a warmth that transcends the holiday fervor. Whether it’s a shared glance over a candlelit dinner or a heartfelt exchange of sentiments, recognize that in these connections, we find the true essence of Christmas.

Build new traditions that deepen the ties with those who matter most. Perhaps it’s a walk under a starlit sky (a walk! Not a drunken stagger), or a joint effort in crafting a festive masterpiece. In the embrace of these shared experiences, feel the energy of togetherness, the kind that lingers long after the seasonal lights dim. These intentional moments of connection form the foundation of a holiday rich in emotional wellness, reminding us that, in the end, it’s the quality of our connections that truly defines the spirit of Christmas.

Because for the Jia Wood Day Master, the Jia Zi December month represents your Friend star sitting on a Direct Resource star. The above, embodies the best qualities of the Friend star – the power of seeing the best in everyone.

DECEMBER 2023: GUI WATER DAY MASTERS AND THE SPIRIT OF AUTHENTICITY

To the Gui Water Day Master, December 2023’s Jia Zi month represents your Hurting Officer sitting on the Friend star. Thoughts about a spot of carolling? 😉 After all, the Hurting Officer is performative by nature! But beyond that, the Hurting Officer is about self-expression.

This Christmas, embrace the power of being heard by sharing your feelings. In the midst of festive celebrations and joyful gatherings, let authenticity be the true gift you offer to those around you.

Expressing your emotions creates a genuine connection that transcends the surface of holiday festivities. Whether it’s joy, gratitude, nostalgia, or even vulnerability, opening up and sharing your feelings can deepen the bonds with friends and family.

Take the time to articulate your thoughts and emotions, allowing others to witness the layers of your experiences. In turn, encourage and create a space for others to share their feelings as well. This mutual vulnerability fosters a sense of understanding, compassion, and connection that can make the holiday season truly meaningful.

Remember, the power of being seen lies not only in the joyous moments but also in acknowledging challenges. Share your highs and lows, and let others do the same. This creates an atmosphere of support and empathy, reminding everyone that they are valued and understood.

In this season of togetherness, let the exchange of feelings be a precious and authentic gift. By embracing vulnerability and openness, you contribute to the creation of lasting memories and a holiday season that resonates on a deeper, more meaningful level.

2024 CHINESE ZODIAC: GOAT

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

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.
