In 2026, Star 2 flies into the Northwest. Traditionally known as an illness star, Star 2 is also associated with passive income that comes from stable and well-maintained systems.
If you’re operating heavily in this sector, you may experience some form of delays and misalignment, misunderstandings, and effort that feels disproportionate to results.
Star 2 in the Northwest does not make it a growth sector. Instead, this is a maintenance and defense sector.
If the Northwest is your main working area, the recommended strategy in 2026 is to:
* Focus on upkeep
* Strengthen weak links
* Prevent small problems from escalating
No amount of sales or marketing campaigns will help if your production line keeps failing due to poor maintenance. How can you run your business well if your body and health are neglected?
Mitigation strategy? Metal cures – either Metal vases/urns or cast-iron gym weights – will be the go-to for the Northwest.
One dumb joke to close 😄
Star 2 doesn’t hate growth — it just insists you fix the plumbing first.

In 2026, Star 3 flies into the West, bringing success through adaptation and alignment.
If your office or main work space is in the West, progress in 2026 will come from making like a surfer – catching the right wave at exactly the right time. Going with the flow.
But what does ‘going with the flow’ really mean? Blind compliance? Nope! People-pleasing? Definitely not! Switching off your brain? Highly not recommended!
Success in 2026 comes from being a part of people already in motion, trends that are already forming, situations that are already unfolding. Almost like jumping onto the right bandwagon (or yes, catching the right wave at the right time). Which means that listening, timing, and responsiveness to external changes is going to be the key behind your success.
Business-wise, the West sector supports market-attuned strategies that co-create with your customers:
* Listening to customer feedback and demand
* Observing what people are already asking for
* Let Q&A, feedback, and live responses shape what you build.
Career-wise, this is a strong year to:
* Align with a capable mentor
* Join a strong team
* Rise a rising industry wave
Basically, catching a wave and allowing the wave to lift you (effortlessly). Excellent for apprenticeship, role transitions, and learning from proximity to competence.
One dumb joke to end 😄
Star 3 in the West says: you can swim upstream… but why, when there’s a perfectly good boat right there?

In 2026, Star 4, the star of information, knowledge, and self-improvement flies into the Northeast where the upskill energy feels almost… non-negotiable.
If your office or main work area is in the Northeast, ask yourself honestly:
* What is the next skill I need to take my business or career to the next level?
* What knowledge gap is limiting my progress?
This is a strong year to:
* Upskill intentionally
* Acquire new information to correct outdated strategy
* Retrain your staff
* Rebuild the core systems
The location of Star 4 in 2026 supports learning that fixes structural rot.
Caution: expect some tension between strong ideas or intellectual plans against practical limitations or daily routines. This could easily spiral into frustration. Upskill with purpose. Apply what you learn. Move on.
No activation necessary for the 2026 Star 4. Just using the sector in the right manner – eg: for studying, research, acquiring new information – is enough.
One dumb joke to close 😄
Star 4 doesn’t care how smart you are — it wants to know if you’re still running last year’s software.

In 2026, Star 5, known as the Emperor Star, flies into the South. But in 2026, the emperor is in a bad mood.
Out of an abundance of caution, the South is considered a reset sector in 2026. This is one area we prefer not to activate. Star 5 is highly sensitive to disruptions and its effects tend to spike the moment the sector is disturbed.
If your office or main work area is in the South, this year is about buffering and containment. Be especially mindful of:
* Issues with cash flow – audit or compliance issues, delayed payments, duplicated payments
* Decision lag – constant strategy changes, flip-flopping decision-making
* Lower-than-expected conversion.
To keep your foundation strong, ensure none of the following occur in the South sector of your office in 2026:
* Drilling, hacking, or renovation
* Frequent heavy rearranging of furniture
* Moving activations such as fans
This is one of the few sectors where doing less is doing it right.
Any way to mitigate? Yes, with Metal. Can either be Metal vases or urns. Can also be cast-iron gym weights. But even with the Metal in place, do not carry out any renovations in the South for the duration of 2026.
One dumb joke to close 😄
Star 5 isn’t asking for attention — it’s asking you to stop poking it.

In 2026, Star 6, the star of leadership, authority, and execution, lands in the North.
This is the ‘make things happen’ type of star. When it shows up in the North, it brings the disciplined required to turn concepts and strategies into tangible results. It brings the energy of clear leadership, owning decisions, and most importantly, getting the work over the line.
If your office or main work area is in the North, treat 2026 as a year to tighten and sharpen:
* Optimize cost-efficiency. Clean up waste, plug financial leaks
* Double down on execution. Refine systems, SOPs, workflows
* Commit to follow-through. Fewer half-built projects, more completed ones.
In simple terms: this is the year to get things done.
Activation? For the North in 2026, I don’t recommend any specific ‘activation’ beyond using the sector well. Reason? The presence of the Three Killings in this sector makes it an unattractive sector to activate, in spite of the positive Star 6. Spending focused, disciplined work time here is more than enough to tap into the Star 6 energy.
Dumb joke to close:
Star 6 doesn’t care about your vision board — it wants your task list. 😄

Yes, Star 7 is often labelled as the “Little Thief”. Also called a “Robbery Star”
Yes, unmanaged, it can show up as wealth leakage.
But that’s only half the story.
Star 7 is also a star of communication, networking, and connection. For historical reference, the inter-connected world we have today with its 24-horus news cycles and social media, began in Period 7 when Star 7 was at it’s strongest.
So here’s the real story: In 2026, the Southwest becomes the Social Capital sector.
This is where:
* Help arrives through people
* Opportunities surface via conversations
* Momentum builds through relationships
Star 7 brings approaching success, favourable conditions after stagnation, allies, resources, and opportunities drawing closer.
Which then begs the question (assuming you got this far): if assistance is coming towards you, wouldn’t your job be to take one step out the door and meet it halfway?
The Southwest can be activated using either Water or Fire. Water Activation requires a pail of water with an aquarium pump inside to keep the water flowing. Fire can be candles, or if you are worried about fire safety, then a Salt Lamp would also do the trick. But remember: no activation replaces behaviour. Once the activations are in place, you need to invest in relationship-building as well.

While considered a ‘past’ Wealth star in Period 9, it’s still a Wealth star, albeit not as sexy as Star 9. This is a star of steady transactions, practical outcomes, and tangible returns. It rewards consistent and grounded action.
The East in 2026 favours:
* revenue that comes from repeat actions
* assets that compound over time
This is a strong sector for ongoing client work and repeat transactions
If your office or main work area is located in the East, this is a signal to tighten cost, refine your product, optimize your funnels, correct small leaks, make small tiny improvements, fine-tune your offer. Think mass market and repeat purchases as opposed to one big project.
If your office is not in the East, Star 8 can still be activated through a Water Activation. This involves a large pail of water with a basic aquarium pump to keep the water flowing, moving, and alive.

In 2026, the current wealth star of the period, Star 9, flies into the Southeast sector.
This means the Southeast carries an energy that accelerates visibility, momentum, and exposure. Ideas surface and convert faster here. Projects gain attention more easily. Caveat: results — good or bad — become harder to hide.
This makes the Southeast a powerful sector for:
Marketing and brand expansion
Launching initiatives that need attention
Scaling projects that are already in progress
Practically speaking, this is a year to activate momentum in the Southeast. Interestingly, on a global scale, Southeast Asia itself is experiencing rapid economic growth — a macro reflection of this same energy.
Activation can be done by:
Spending more time working in the Southeast sector, or
Using it intentionally as a high-action zone
If your office or main work area is located in the Southeast, this is a strong signal to:
Take decisive action in marketing and visibility
Push initiatives that are ready to be seen
Say yes to larger opportunities that require presence and speed
If your office or main work area is not located in the Southeast, the usual activation method is a Water Activation.
This involves a large pail of water with a basic aquarium pump to keep the water flowing, moving, and alive. Without guidance from a Feng Shui practitioner, be 100% certain the activation is placed in the Southeast. Important caveat: in 2026, we do not want Water touching the South sector.
Finally, Star 9 as a wealth star is unforgiving of weak foundations. Visibility without structure exposes cracks in operational systems.
Before pushing harder, ask:
Can my systems handle increased demand?
Are my processes ready if opportunities land quickly?

The ability to control our time is the highest dividend. We’ve been primarily using Bazi for most of this series, and we will continue to do so. But for this one chapter, Chapter 7 of The Psychology of Money by Morgan Housel, we will be deploying some Feng Shui techniques to help you identify potential wealth-building barriers.
Because, in order to help us get to a space where we experience Financial Freedom, Financial Liberation, and Financial Independence, we need to first clear the mindset.
KEY EXCERPTS FROM THE PSYCHOLOGY OF MONEY (CHAPTER 7)
“The highest form of wealth is the ability to wake up every morning and say, “I can do whatever I want today.”
“People want to become wealthier to make them happier. Happiness is a complicated subject because everyone’s different.”
“The ability to do what you want, when you want, with who you want, for as long as you want, is priceless. It is the highest dividend money pays.”
“Money’s greatest intrinsic value is its ability to give you control over your time.”
In today’s world of non-stop work (hustle culture call it work-life integration), there is seemingly no boundaries between our work and life. Because most of us are knowledge workers. We no longer work with our hands. We work with our heads. When we work with our hands, we can easily down tools and switch off. Like for example, an auto worker in the 50s, once they leave a factory, they’re done. They’ve clocked out.
But today, no thanks to things like emails, whatsapp, social media, we can’t get away! Our control over our time has diminished.
“A small amount of wealth means the ability to take a few days off work when you’re sick without breaking the bank. A bit more wealth means waiting for a good job opportunity to come around, rather than being forced to take the first one you find.”
FIND YOUR LIFE GUA
To get started, we need you plot your Bazi Chart. And find your Life Gua. All online Bazi plotters will give you this piece of information.
In the above example, we have noted that this person’s Life Gua is South. Which means that in any home, the South sector represents the person.
Next, use the compass app on your phone (set it to Magnetic North) and stand in the middle of your house and turn around looking for your sector.
And we want to identify – are there any negative forms externally – pylons, dead trees, road curves, road clash. Now before you panic, I know we cannot do anything about external negative forms. But awareness of the impact of these negative forms can be your first step. Meaning, I know that I have this issue, I start taking action to remedy.
Similarly, look for internal negative forms – clutter, mess, anything that causes a blockage and stagnation of Qi. Internal negative forms, we can certainly do something about. It’s called Marie Kondo your Identity Sector.
Clutter in our Identity Sector is clutter in our head. And this clutter in our heads could be one of the wealth barriers standing in the way of our financial freedom.
WEALTH BUILDING BLOCKS IN YOUR IDENTITY SECTOR
Let’s drill down to the Life Guas. By now, I hope you have plotted your Chart and found out what is your direction.
North (Gua 1)
Blockages in the North creates a fear of taking risk. Every time you need to take a calculated risk, your imagination goes bonkers, and you find yourself assailed by so many emotions, that you cannot see clearly what you are doing. When we can’t see our way out of a bind, it creates fear.
Southwest (Gua 2 and Gua 5 men)
Any negative forms here causes a negative relationship with money. Somehow, somewhere in the past, you may have inculcated yourself with a poor money mindset or limiting beliefs. This could be cynical and negative attitudes. Example: money is dirty.
East (Gua 3)
The wealth barriers here could come in the form of lack of long-term planning. No comprehensive financial planning. Just getting by, living day to day. Erratic action-taking, no consistency.
Southeast (Gua 4)
Negative forms here causes a lack of financial education. Not enough knowledge. As I said, this one is easy – clean up the area, and then go and learn!
Northwest (Gua 6)
Clutter here causes problems related to obligations. You experience a heavy burden with money. Maybe took on too much debt, graciously acted as guarantor for people, still financially supporting your grown children, basically, took on too much! Remedy for this? Clean up the area, and go restructure your debts
West (Gua 7)
Negative forms here causes a lack of financial discipline. Basically, very good at spending, don’t know how to save or invest or budget. Just going with the flow all the time.
Northeast (Gua 8 or Gua 5 women)
Clutter here causes a lack of income diversification. Over-dependence on a single source of income. For some strange reason, you think that there is only one way to make money. Other ways cannot. Solution: clean up the area, and get into exploratory mode. Put on your thinking cap. Get creative.
South (Gua 9)
Clutter here could result in procrastination, lack of action caused by an overwhelming need for control. Again, this one is an easy fix. Clean up the area, sit yourself down, create a plan of action, and then follow through! Give yourself a deadline to follow through. Better yet, reward yourself when you follow through. When we reward ourselves for positive behaviour, it creates a new feedback loop into the brain.
KEY TAKEAWAY (CHAPTER 7)
Feng Shui is not a magic pill. But Feng Shui can support. In this case, clearing up our identity palaces can effectively clear our minds. Like a refreshing breeze sweeping away the old cobwebs.
But after the cleanup, for sure, there is a need to take corresponding action. All the barriers I’ve described in this post are not unfixable.

The September 2024 Flying Star chart is full of HeTu combinations. Which means that the same collaboration theme happening in the month’s Bazi chart is being reinforced by the Flying Star combinations.
West (5 – 9):
With Star 9 visiting the West in September 2024, this is perhaps the only month when the Star 5 could potentially turn positive. Provided, of course, if you do not have any negative forms in that area. Now this does not mean you get to do funny stuff (construction, renovation, or activations) in the West.
Star 5 (as an annual star) is generally considered a negative star. Star 9 (especially in Period 9) is a happy star. Together, these two creates an addiction to escapism especially if you are using the West sector regularly. Now before you jump straight into that bottomless rabbit hole of escapism, let’s think about this for a second. This addiction can just as easily be channelled externally instead of internally. You can use this to turn the addiction into the positive by getting fans addicted to your product or service.
Northwest (4 – 8):
When a wealth star (8) meets an intellectual star (4), this combination is highly supportive of wealth generated through intellectual properties. So if you have an ebook to launch, go for it!
North (8 – 3):
The 8-3 is a HeTu combination that produces Wood. This is a highly intelligent combination as Star 3 represents good performance while Star 8 represents a steady income. When a HeTu combination comes along, collaboration is always the key. Seek out collaborations (be it business or career) that can serve to drive further growth for you.
Northeast (6 – 1):
Another HeTu Combination. The 6-1 combination produces Water. Star 1 brings wisdom to complement Star 6’s management qualities. Together, this combination is great for better financial literacy and mastery. Also, Star 6 represents discipline and Star 1 represents creativity and ideas. Together, they enhance our ability to be disciplined about taking action on our ideas.
East (1 – 5):
Avoid new activations in the East for the month of September 2024. The arrival of Star 5 (challenges) to counter Star 1 (nobleman) can temporarily kick up relationship challenges and miscommunications. This combination can also cause mental and emotional stress. But please understand, sometimes these challenges come to force us to become better versions of ourselves. We grow when we overcome challenges. If we can exhibit self-control and self-mastery, there is no reason why the one month combination of 1-5 can cause too much issues.
Southeast (2 – 6):
The 2-6 combination in the Southeast is supportive of career advancement. However, the type of leadership that the 2-6 best supports is the type that leads from the back. Star 2 is nurturing, while Star 6 is discipline. This is a fantastic combination to use for manager-coaches who wants to take a step back and let your team shine.
South (7 – 2)
The Fire HeTu Combination in the South palace brings a boost in passion, inspiration and optimism. But because Fire is so strong, it also brings (if you have negative forms in the sector), impatience. Potential for collaborations, certainly. In this case, seek collaborations that enhances your brand, reputation and visibility.
Southwest (9 – 4):
The last He Tu combination for the month. The 9-4 in the Southwest is a Metal combination which is all about action-taking. So seek out short-term collaborations with other people who are already working hard to make things happen. This is also the best combination for networking and building relationships that could lead to joint ventures.
