Feng Shui 2007
Come 4th of February 2007 and we usher in the new Chinese Solar year of Ding Hai. The heavenly stem Ding is classified as Yin Fire, while Hai is Pig. Hence 2007 is also known as the year of the Fire Pig! Please note that the Chinese New Year celebration falls on the 18th February 2007 which coincides with the 1st day of the Chinese Lunar Calendar.
From a Feng Shui 2007 perspective, the new solar year brings in a new set of auspicious and inauspicious annual energies (or qi). The auspicious star 8 that is associated with wealth and prosperity moves to the south west. Therefore if your main door faces the direction southwest, or the door is in the southwest or if your bedroom is located in the southwest sector of the house then you should (in theory) have a better 2007. Other factors such as destiny, luck pillar, energy of the sector etc will of course moderate the effect positively or negatively!
To enhance this auspicious energy, you can place earthenware items such as porcelains, clay pots or yellow colored crystal in the southwest sector of the house.
The inauspicious energy of Three Killings and Five Yellow strikes the west and north east sector respectively in 2007. Li Shi (Muscleman) also lands in the north east and it combines with Five Yellow to make the sector highly inauspicious.
If your main door faces the directions west or north east, of the door is in the west or north east or if your bedroom is located in these sectors then you can expected a tougher year in 2007.
How do we mitigate these inauspicious energies?
You can move to another room! But if you do not have the luxury, here is what you should do. For the five yellow you can use a metal wind chime especially if the area is located near a window. Five Yellow is earth and the metal wind chime will help to exhaust the inauspicious energy. If it is not near to a window, you can place six ancient Chinese coins or the salt water cure in the north east.
To counter the three killings that occupy the entire west sector plus the sub-sector of SW3 (SWW) and NW1 (NWW), you can place a plant (money plant, bamboo), a small bucket of water and ancient metal coins in the west. Alternatively you can replace the metal coins with three metal Chi Lins (Dragon Dogs) which you can easily obtain at Feng Shui shops.
Then there is the Tai Sui which is in NW3 in 2007. If your house is facing NW3 (sitting SE3), then you should expect a slightly tougher 2007. More importantly you should not renovate any parts of your house during 2007. You should also not renovate your house in 2007 if your house sits at the Five Yellow (NE) or Three Killings (W).
The renovation rules above apply to a currently tenanted house. For a new or vacant house, you can carry out the renovations. Just select an auspicious day to start work!
