Feng Shui Auspicious Numbers


The numbers one to nine in Feng Shui are identified by colours, one of the Five Elements and individual meanings.  As well as appearing around the points of the compass as determined by the original Lo Shu Grid, they also reside in the constellation of the Big Dipper; Ursa Major.

The most auspicious numbers in Feng Shui are always the White Stars 1, 6 and 8.  This indicates a link between the Magic Ratio of 1:1.618 and the White Stars.

White Stars

Number Eight (8) We are currently in period eight of Flying Star Feng Shui and this means the number eight star is shining at its brightest from 2004-2024.  Always a lucky number much sought after in the Far East, its strength increases during this current period and when activated correctly has the potential to invite great good fortune.

The original compass location for this white star is the northeast which is also the location of the youngest son of the family.  Your youngest son can benefit greatly from activating this number.

To take full advantage of this earth element number, which is located in the centre of the period eight Lo Shu Grid; the centre of your home; infuse your home with light (which enhances earth,) sound and movement. Enhance your home, especially the centre, with the earth colours of ochre, pale yellow and shades of brown to infuse your space with the strength of this most auspicious of stars.

Avoid an excess of the metal element in the northeast and the centre as metal weakens the element of earth.

 Number One (1) Represents water and water means money, or wealth gained from your career

This star is second behind the number 8 because in Flying Star Feng Shui it will return to the centre from 2044-2064 when it will become a powerful and auspicious star to activate.

As it appears at the beginning of the 180-year Flying Star cycle the number one is said to represent new beginnings and new opportunities.

The original compass location for the number one white star is the north.  This is the location of the middle son.  When this star appears in its original location of the north the middle son will benefit and when he is working may well result in increased income coming from his chosen career.

Enhancing the north with water or metallic objects is auspicious (metal creates water in the Five Elements.)  Avoid placing earth element objects in the north as earth destroys water in the Five Elements.

Number Six (6) Is a metal element star and its original location in the Lo Shu Grid is the northwest.  In Flying Stars Feng Shui this number is furthest away from where we are now so its effects are weakened.  However the northwest is the area of the trigram Chien, the male, Heaven and Mentor. 

Chien and the metal element of the area signifies gold, riches and prosperity.  When this number ‘flies’ into its northwest home it represents good fortune for the man of the house. 

Enhancing this area with big metal, the big metal of our modern day technology such as televisions, games consoles, music systems, creates sound and movement and keeping the area light and bright will activate the power of this important star.  Just a word of caution, while the area should be bright, excessive bright lights or worse still, fire, are to be avoided.  Fire destroys metal in the Five Elements and this would cause any good fortune to go up in smoke.

The northwest of your home will also benefit from being painted white which is the ultimate Yang colour incorporating as it does all the other colours of the spectrum.  White is also one of the colours of the area along with grey, gold and bronze, metallic colours that will activate the positive features of the area.

To the fulfillment of your dreams
