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.

DECEMBER 2023: JI EARTH DAY MASTERS AND THE SPIRIT OF SUPPORT

What does December 2023’s Jia Zi month represent for the Ji Earth Day Master? Your Direct Officer sitting on Indirect Resource. The Direct Officer is a prized star in classical Bazi. But today, it represents all the buzzkill words – discipline, authority, a feeling of being constrained, perhaps even collectivism. But beneath that wet blanket beats a heart that is sincere in wanting to support the people around you. Hence, for the Ji Earth Day Master, the Spirit of Support.

This Christmas, let yours be the hand that uplifts those around you. In a season filled with joy and celebration, let your actions echo the spirit of generosity and kindness, reaching out to lift others higher.

Amidst the festive decorations and joyful gatherings, take a moment to recognize those who may be in need of support. Be the hand that extends warmth to the lonely, comfort to the grieving, and encouragement to the disheartened. Sometimes, a simple gesture of compassion can make a world of difference.

As you share laughter and create memories with loved ones, be mindful of the opportunity to be a source of strength for others. Your words of encouragement, your acts of kindness, and your willingness to listen can be a beacon of hope, lighting up the lives of those who may be facing challenges.

And as you do so, may your actions create ripples of positivity, turning the holiday spirit into a force that lifts hearts and fosters a sense of community and connection.

NOVEMBER 2023 | WU 戊 AND JI 己 DAY MASTERS | CLARITY OF GOAL-SETTING

For the Earth Day Masters, November 2023 brings you an influx of Wealth energies. So be prepared for a busy month ahead. But it’s not about the number of hours you put in. It’s about the results you consistently produce. Within the energies of November 2023, lies a hidden opportunity to gain clarity in your goal-setting.

Without this clarity, you may find yourself swamped by a deluge of tasks – some of which may even serve to distract and divert you from your original goal. This lack of focus – distractions and competing priorities – is exactly what you can address in November 2023.

When Earth meets Water, mud ensues. This scenario suggests a lack of clarity which can make it difficult to set goals because it can be hard to identify what you want to achieve. When one lacks clarity, one may not have a clear understanding of your values, priorities, or strengths, all of which can make it difficult to set meaningful and achievable goals.

At the same time, unclear or vague goals can also impede your ability to identify what you need to do to achieve them, resulting in confusion and frustration. Therefore, let’s take the time in November 2023 to gain clarity about what you want to achieve and why. So that you can set goals that are aligned with your values and priorities, which in turn increases your chances of success.

To start, let’s first get a firm grasp on the lay of the land. Clarity of action begins with attaining a clear understanding of the situation at hand. Therefore, invest time to gather the information, seek feedback if you have to, so that you will be able to make quick decisions, prioritize and trouble-shoot effectively. It’s about gaining a strong understanding about the root cause of the obstacle in order to develop a clear plan of action that includes specific goals, timelines, and metrics for success.

WU EARTH DAY MASTER

Wu Earth Day Masters will meet with your Direct Wealth in the Heavenly Stems of the November 2023 Bazi Chart. Since Direct Wealth is directly related to productivity, this is the month to prioritize, delegate, outsource, automate, use tools, and set boundaries – all in an effort to make sure that it’s the results that count, not the number of hours. Otherwise, you end up busy being busy… for nothing! (LLB!)

JI EARTH DAY MASTER

For the Ji Earth Day Master, strategic planning is the name of the game in November 2023. Take the time to consider the long-term impact of your work and how it aligns with your medium- and long-term goals.

OCTOBER 2023: JI EARTH DAY MASTER

Ji Earth Day Masters is likely to be flooded by a wave of wealth energy in October 2023. The deluge of Water energies brought about by the Ren Xu month, and added to by the presence of the Gui Mao year, may feel a little overwhelming.

Ji Earth Day Masters may feel like overwhelmed by the sheer deluge of opportunities. In trying to grab every single one, there is a risk that you may make careless mistakes and resort to speculating instead of informed decisions.

But let’s not waste a perfectly good Wealth month!

JI EARTH DAY MASTER: BLENDING EXPERIENCE, CREATIVITY AND PLANNING

For the Ji Earth Day Masters, October 2023 starts by drawing on your leadership journey and the lessons you have learned to date. Think about how these experiences have and can inform your creative approach.

Creativity is the spark that ignites innovation and problem-solving. It is certainly a leadership asset. Leaders who embrace creativity inspire their teams to think outside the box, adapt to changing circumstances and devise ingenious solutions.

With the idea of encouraging creativity within your team, foster a workplace culture that values diversity of thought. Encourage your team members to contribute their creative ideas and perspectives.

And finally, when all the brainstorming is done, your most obvious job is the Direct Wealth on the Heavenly Stems – the planning, the alignment of goals, the resource allocation, the risk mitigation, as well as the measurement and adaptation.

SEPTEMBER 2023: JI EARTH DAY MASTER – XIN METAL IS REFINEMENT

A Bazi forecast for the month of September 2023 will revolve solely around the Xin Metal. The Month Master for September 2023 is the Xin You pillar which is a pure Xin Metal pillar. In essence, this month’s series, is almost akin to suggestions on how to use your Xin Metal.

JI EARTH DAY MASTER: XIN METAL IS REFINEMENT

Let’s talk about the art of being you! You, but perhaps just a tiny shade better? With a pure Eating God pillar coming into your hands, this could be a good time to take you best ideas and polish them up to a shiny sheen. Invest time into fine-tuning your ideas, tidying up the loose ends, or even polishing your sales pitch.

But what if you don’t really have something to sell? Well, perhaps a small investment in personal grooming and overall presentation? Another idea would be to take this opportunity to refine your communication skills by practicing active listening, speaking with clarity and precision, and choosing your words more thoughtfully.

We could also be mindful of your body language and nonverbal cues, as they also play a crucial role in effective communication. By refining how you express yourself, you’ll exude confidence and professionalism in all interactions.

JI EARTH DAY MASTER AND JUNE 2023

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

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

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

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

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

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

MARCH 2023: JI EARTH DAY MASTER – TEACHING SOMEONE TO FISH

The Ji Earth Day Master is one of the Useful Gods in the March 2023 chart. A pure 7 Killings month can herald the arrival of many people coming to you with their problems. An easy way out would be to solve their problems for them, which is a viable strategy. But let’s take this 7 Killings energy a step further. How about we empower people to solve their own problems instead?

Empowering people to solve problems is about helping them develop the skills, knowledge, and confidence they need to take control of their own situations and find their own solutions.

Provide education and training: Provide people with the education and training they need to develop the skills and knowledge required to solve problems. This can include workshops, courses, and mentoring programs.
Encourage creativity: Encourage people to think outside the box and come up with their own unique solutions to problems. Foster a culture of innovation and creativity that rewards new ideas and approaches.
Foster independence: Encourage people to take ownership of their problems and develop their own solutions. Avoid solving problems for them and instead provide guidance and support as they work towards resolving the issue.
Provide resources: Provide people with the resources they need to solve problems, such as access to information, tools, and technology. This can include providing access to experts, providing funding, or providing access to software tools and other resources.
Celebrate success: Celebrate people’s successes when they solve problems on their own. This can include recognizing their achievements publicly, rewarding them for their efforts, or simply acknowledging their hard work and dedication.
Provide ongoing support: Provide ongoing support and feedback to help people continue to develop their problem-solving skills. This can include providing coaching, mentoring, and regular check-ins to see how they’re progressing.

By empowering people to solve problems, you can help them develop the skills and confidence they need to overcome challenges and achieve their goals. It’s easy to solve other people’s problems for them. But that is a short-term solution. When you can empower people to solve their own problems, that is when you reach a higher status as a leader.

2023 AND THE JI EARTH DAY MASTER

The year of the Water Rabbit in 2023 is a year of expansion for the Ji Earth Day Master. Buoyed by two aggressive expansion stars, this is a year where crisis and opportunities are really two sides of the same coin.

WHAT’S GOING ON?

The 2023 Year of the Water Rabbit infuses each of our Bazi Charts with different types of energy. Its arrival, amps up or strengthens different parts of our charts. Think of your Bazi Chart as a reflection of the cosmos. With the arrival of the Gui Mao, certain aspects of your Chart lights up! From there, we can add another layer of strategy to make 2023 a success.

To make this easily applicable, I will share this in the form of keywords. At this juncture, you might ask, what if I don’t intend to follow these strategies? What if I don’t find these keywords applicable to my situation?

The answer: nothing! These keywords represent the broader energies brought to you by the Gui Mao. To use it or not, is your choice!

2023 AND THE JI EARTH DAY MASTER

For the Ji Earth Day Master, the Water Rabbit or Gui Mao, presents as Indirect Wealth sitting on 7 Killings. Admittedly, it will be easier for business owners to use these stars as opposed to career professionals. Because both these stars lean towards aggressive outward expansion.

Therefore, the key words for Indirect Wealth are LEVERAGE or INVESTORS or PROFITS.

The 7 Killings is a very decisive star. Right or wrong, it encourages action making 2023 a year for the Ji Earth to improve on your decision-making skills.

Next, the 7 Killings tears down boundaries. Like the Indirect Wealth, the 7 Killings can also represent expansion by attracting Investors. However, please note that investors will not come knocking on your door step just because 2023 is an Indirect Wealth year for you. You must still take steps to meet, converse, and convince the investors. The action part is on you!

For the career professionals, this may be the year for you to consider getting involved in business development.

Lastly, and perhaps most importantly, 2023 is a year for the Ji Earth Day Master to put into place the right systems, opportunities, and leverage to create long-term sustainability.

Here, I would like to add a caution. Indirect Wealth sitting on 7 Killings can create feelings of greed. The temptation to put all your eggs in a basket for a big, quick, easy win. You need to know this because both these stars are also quite optimistic.

The Ji Earth Day Master in 2023 is buoyed by two aggressive outward expansion stars. But your Bazi Chart only makes up 33% of your life. In the principle of Heaven-Earth-Man, humans still hold 33% of this equation. This is an important reminder for the Ji Earth. This is what has been given to you. Now the ball is in your court!
