CARDINAL COMPASS POINTS

FENG SHUI  8 MANSIONS

CARDINAL COMPASS POINTS

Clockwise around the compass the four cardinal points are North, East, South and West.

The Five Elements of Feng Shui are said to be 'all that is'.  These elements are Wood, Fire, Earth, Metal and Water.

The cardinal points of North (N2), South (S2), West (W2) and East (E2) contain only pure elemental Qi.  Water in the North, Wood in the East, Fire in the South and Metal in the West. 

Are they all created the same?  The answer to that would be 'no'!

North contains water, South contains fire, West contains metal and East contains wood.  Notice anything significant?  These opposites also happen to represent the controlling cycle of the Five Elements, hence the water of the North controls the fire of the South and the metal of the West controls the wood of the East.  Oh that it were so simple!  Welcome Yin and Yang.

Yang water cannot control yang fire because yang fire is the sun, the source of our existence.  However, yin water, the water of mist, fog, clouds and so on can exert some control over the sun in as much as it can hide it from our view.

Yang metal, the hard and hewn metal turned into machinery and axes for example can certainly wield force and control over yang wood (wood of tall majestic trees of the forest) yet would find it hard to do anything more than bend and flatten yin wood.  This is the wood of grasses and ivy, wood that is more than capable of taking over anything it comes into contact with given time. 

The four cardinal compass points also represent what is termed Peach Blossom (Tao Hua) Stars.  Each person has a specific Peach Blossom Star depending on their birth date.  Peach Blossom refers to how attractive, likeable, popular and approachable a person appears and is not the be all and end all when it comes to looking for love.     

The Chinese Astrological Animals of the Peach Blossom Stars are the Rat (North), Rabbit (East), Horse (South) and Rooster (West).

The numbers associated with the cardinal directions are 1 in the North, 3 in the East, 9 in the South and 7 in the West, all odd numbers hence all yang.

In terms of the seasons North represents the dark days of winter, East belongs to the awakening season of spring.  South opposes the North and brings us to the light, bright days at the height of summer and West moves us gradually through the year into the cooler and changing days of autumn.

This is only a small part of the significance of the cardinal compass points.  Consider times of the day, member of the family, health, colour, shapes and much more.  These are also part of the rich tapestry of the compass points when working with Feng Shui...and we have yet to look at the remaining sectors or the element of earth.

FENG SHUI - KAN and LI

The middle son and the middle daughter of the family.

Kan and Li are unique among the trigrams.  They are the only two who are opposite on another in both the Early Heaven and the Later Heaven Arrangements.

In the Early Heaven Ba Gua Kan is in the West and Li is in the East.  In the Later Heaven Ba Gua Kan is in the North and Li is in the South. 

These elements are the easiest to explain in their interaction.  In the Early Heaven Arrangement, the sequences create a situation of the status quo.  There is no movement and everything is in a state of perfection.  There is no life and no death.  Fire in the West and Water in the East represent balance.  They neither help or hinder one another.

In the Later Heaven Arrangement Fire is in the South.  It represents the height of the Summer season; a time when the sun is highest in the sky; the ultimate Yang.  In Summer Fire Qi is powerful and Water Qi is ineffective, Water being unable to control the power of the Sun.  Water in contrast is in the North.  In the Later Heaven Ba Gua it represents the height of the Winter season; a time when the sun is at its lowest in the sky; the ultimate Yin.  In Winter Water Qi is strong and Fire Qi is weak.

KAN (☵)

Kan is the middle son of the family.  The Gua (trigram) of Kan is represented by a lower broken line (Yin) followed by a solid Yang line and an upper broken line.  The Yin below and above is still and unmoving yet the Yang in the middle is moving.  Representing Water this trigram has hidden depths.  Kan Gua suggests struggle and danger.  Having the Yang line in the centre and being unable to break free signifies difficulty; in this case thoughts, feelings, emotions are all affected.  These are the things that cannot be seen, they are not obvious. 

The Gua number of the North is 1 and its colour is blue or black.

Within the body this trigram represents blood and the kidneys.  A missing North corner or a harmful external feature will negatively affect the middle son of the family. 

LI (☲)

Li is the trigram of the middle daughter.  This Gua is made up of two Yang lines at the bottom and top with a broken Yin line in the centre.  This is the trigram of Fire; obvious on the outside and hollow inside.  Li Gua is showy and likes to be seen; to be the centre of attraction.  Li Gua represents 'what you see is what you get' it is all on the outside.  Appearance is all important to this trigram. The saying 'wearing your heart on your sleeve' means you let your feelings show. 

The Gua number of the South is 9 and its colour is red or orange.

In the body Li Gua represents the heart and the eyes.  A missing South corner or a harmful external feature will negatively affect the middle daughter of the family.  A protrusion or obvious Yang feature in the South can be as harmful as a missing sector.

FENG SHUI - QIAN and KUN

Let us take a look at each trigram individually to find out more about them.

QIAN (☰)

Qian represents the ultimate Yang.  This Gua consists of three solid lines signifying strength.

In the Early Heaven Arrangement this Gua was placed in the South, the location of fire and midsummer, the hottest and most Yang time of the year.

Under the Later Heaven Arrangement this was moved to the Northwest to take account of the cyclical nature of the Universe.  Qian is Heaven, the sky.  Its Gua number is 6.  It signifies the male in a position of authority, exerting power and dominance over others, whether it is the leader of a country, company chairmen, business owners, the father or oldest male in a family.  In the animal kingdom Qian is the lion, elephant, the horse; strong and powerful creatures.

The element of Qian is strong Metal, hard and unyielding and its associated season is late Autumn.  This is the time of year when the ground hardens and there is little growth.  Metal is a sharp, piercing element yet its shape is round, signifying no beginning and no end.  The colours of this Gua are white (the colour that encompasses all others), silver and gold. 

The head and brain are part of Qian Gua.  If there is a missing Northwest corner in a property, or a negative feature, such as a lamppost, pointing towards the Northwest corner they will have a negative impact on the male particularly related to the head.

KUN (☷)

Kun is the Yin as Qian is the Yang.  They represent male and female; mother and father.  Kun Gua consists of three broken lines which identifies the yielding nature of this feminine trigram.

In the Early Heaven Arrangement this Gua sat directly opposite Qian in the North, the location of water and midwinter; the coldest and most Yin time of the year.   

The Later Heaven Arrangement sees Kun in the Southwest, the Earth element location; the area that signifies nurturing and caring by the mother or the eldest female in a family.  Its Gua number is 2. 

Qian is the creative; Kun is the receptive.   The location of Kun is the area of late Summer.  It is the transition point of the seasons when the earth begins to cool.  Earth is represented by the square, a solid and stable shape that is favoured as the best for homes.  The colours of Earth are yellow, ochre and brown.

The stomach and the flesh are part of Kun Gua.  If there is a missing Southwest corner in a property, or a negative feature, such as a single tree, pointing towards the Southwest corner these will have a negative impact on the female head of the family.  Stomach and flesh related issues can result from negative features in the immediate environment.

FENG SHUI and GUA

What is a Gua?

It is three lines one on top of the other (a trigram) with Yin and/or Yang characteristics.  The Yin is a broken line representing the female and the Yang is a solid line representing the male (example: ☲ Li Gua.)

In total there are eight Gua (also called Trigrams or Kua) used in Feng Shui analysis.   They are known as Qian, Kan, Gen, Zhen, Xun, Li, Kun and Dui. 

The Ba Gua consists of one of the 8 trigrams situated at the centre of each sector (Northwest, North, Northeast, East, Southeast, South, Southwest and West) and each has a multitude of meanings.  These range from a family member, body part, season, number, colour and one of the five elements.  This is by no means an exhaustive list. 

There are two Ba Gua; one is known as the Early Heaven arrangement and it is mainly associated with Yin House Feng Shui (Feng Shui for burial sites.)  Its layout represents a perfect state where everything is in balance.  There is no time or movement and no growth.

From this state of perfection the second Ba Gua was created and it is known as the Later Heaven arrangement.  The San Yuan School of Classical Feng Shui is also called the Three Cycles.  It signifies the dynamic and cyclical nature of Qi; it is Yang. The layout of this Ba Gua represents the cyclical nature of the Universe; the seasonal changes where everything is in constant motion.  It shows the movement of time.  Nothing remains static. 

The saying 'what goes around comes around' accurately depicts the influence of time and in Feng Shui a full cycle is 9 x 20 years=180 years. 

Within these 180 years there are three periods of 60 years each, further split into three 20-year periods and these are known as the Upper, Middle and Lower periods.  We are currently in the middle of the Lower period, in the 20-year period 8, when the element of Earth dominates and which represents current prosperity. 

The next period is 9, a Fire element which will commence in 2024 until 2043.  Currently this signifies future prosperity and it will complete the final period of this 60 year cycle as well as one complete cycle of 180 years.

Period 1 a Water element currently represents distant prosperity and will be the first of a new Upper Cycle, the start of the next 180-year period.

The number 8 and the number 1 are both known as White Stars and are usually auspicious.  The number 9, on its own is generally auspicious, it is a Purple Star; a magnifying star.  This means that when it is joined by other stars it will magnify their effect, whether good or bad.  The remaining stars from 2-7 are currently distant so their influence is weaker.

FENG SHUI NORTH and SOUTH

Which Way is South?

Most books and information on Feng Shui will always show the direction of South at the top, the traditional place of the North on a compass.  Does this alter directions 180⁰ when applying Feng Shui?  The quick answer is of course, 'No!'  North is North and South is South wherever in the world you live and North is always based on magnetic North. 

Feng Shui practice works according to the Five Elements, Yin and Yang and the Eight Trigrams (each one representing a member of the household as well as points around the compass.)  

In the Early Heaven Arrangement of the Ba Gua the sequence is based on a state of perfection with each opposing trigram creating balance. Qian (male, power, authority and pure Yang) is placed at the top while still representing South and is directly opposite Kun (female, yielding and pure Yin) placed at the bottom and signifying North. 

So why have South at the top?

Qian represents Heaven, space, light, the sun and above while Kun represents Earth, dark, night, stillness and below, together they are in complete harmony. 

The Ba Gua of the Later Heaven Arrangement was created to reflect the constantly changing conditions on earth formed by the movement of earth around the sun.   

In the cycle of the Later Heaven Arrangement the South represents Li Trigram which in turn represents fire; mid-summer and midday; the hottest and the most Yang times.  The Fire element rises, it moves upward and outward.  In contrast Kan Trigram is water; it is mid-winter and midnight; it is cold and darkness; the time of maximum Yin.  The Water element flows downward.

Whether it is the Ba Gua of the Early Heaven or the Later Heaven Arrangement they naturally gravitate towards showing South at the top and North at the bottom.

FENG SHUI and EIGHT MANSIONS-East Group

“If we are facing in the right direction, all we have to do is keep on walking”

Buddhist Saying

Personal Eight Mansions is well-known in Feng Shui.  Your date of birth identifies your Gua number which in turn identifies your four good and four bad locations. 

Knowing the Eight Mansions of your home, which takes into consideration the distribution of energy throughout the building will determine whether you and your home are meant for one another. 

Looking at an example of a person with Gua number 1; your personal east group locations and directions and how you can live in a home inauspicious for you based on its sitting direction.

Gua number 1 auspicious directions are southeast, east, south and north; the inauspicious directions are west, northeast, northwest and southwest.  Looking at the worst scenario of your house you would be living in a Kun House (facing northeast/sitting southwest.)  In effect your house is sitting in your total loss location.  Before you run away screaming let’s take a more in-depth look at the situation.

Remembering that location is more important than direction, the first thing to do is consider the internal layout of your home.  Can you arrange it such that you --- a) Have your living area in the southeast (your best direction); b) Have your bedroom in the east (your health direction); c) Place your kitchen in the southwest (your total loss direction)?

This allows you the luxury of choosing which of your four auspicious directions you face when sitting, playing and sleeping, which will in turn bring harmony and positive energy into your life.  Having your kitchen in the southwest will press down on your bad luck (total loss) associated with the southwest.  It is important to remember to have the stove facing one of your auspicious directions, depending on the aspiration important to you at this particular time in your life.  If bad health is an issue for you then having the stove facing* your tien yi (doctor from heaven) or nien yen (longevity) directions will benefit you.  *The facing direction of the stove means the direction the knobs are pointing.)

Another thing to consider is the direction your living room door (unless you have an open plan layout in which case it will mean the direction the entire space is facing), and your bedroom door, face.  It is beneficial if they face one of your auspicious directions.  This is inviting positive Qi into the space each time the door is opened and closed.

So although you may live in a house that is not in harmony with you and your personal directions you can see it is still possible to arrange the internal space such that it beneficial for you.

Looking briefly at Chinese Astrology, if you are born in the year of the Sheep (SW1) or the year of the Monkey (SW3) you will gain some benefit from the Southwest regardless of your Kua number.  Just be aware of the annual afflictions for each year and take suitable measures to avoid misfortune when it comes calling, in your animal location.

FENG SHUI and MISSING CORNERS-Family

As well as the Eight Aspirations each of the four primary and four secondary corners of the Lo-Shu grid relate to members of the family.      

Last time we highlighted the importance of the Northwest and Southwest and their effect on the male and the female (the mother and father) of the home.  Now we will complete the family picture and discover who will be impacted by missing corners in the remaining six locations.

East                        The East is the location of the eldest son, the Dragon of the family.  This is the best place to locate the bedroom for your first son to thrive.  When missing it will make it difficult for him to grow; an important point in this big wood area of the Pa Kua.  As well as the eldest son this could easily refer to a young protégé in the business world and when the area is missing in the home it will seriously affect his path up the corporate ladder.

Southeast           This is the location of the eldest daughter of the family.  She represents the wind which brings positive energy into the area, helping her thrive.  Her positive growth will be seriously depleted if this corner is missing.  In a business environment she will struggle to be heard if she lacks the support of the southeast at home.

South                    Your middle daughter will benefit from a bedroom located in this area.  The south is the fire area relating to fame, recognition and a place in the limelight.  Your middle daughter will not be overlooked at home or at work when she spends time in this location.  When it is missing she will be seen but not heard and her natural exuberance will be suppressed.

West                     The West is the corner of the youngest daughter.  Nestled safely between the locations of the mother (Southwest) and father (Northwest) she represents the lake and when this corner is not missing she is well cared for and nurtured.  A missing corner in the West however will not only affect the wellbeing of the youngest daughter it will also impact family harmony.

North                    Your middle son will be adversely affected when the North corner is missing.  This is the area of water and is connected to career and a constant flow of money.  All working members of the family will feel the negative impact if the area is missing.

Northeast           The Northeast relates to the youngest son.  Having a bedroom in this area will help him thrive at school and beyond.  The area of personal growth is important to ensure there is no lack of focus when studying and learning.  This small earth area signifying the mountain will provide solid support when it is present; however when it is missing direction and focus is uncertain.   

Depending on the size of your family missing corners may not have any negative effect; if you only have one son then the East is the important area and the North/Northeast will not have a significant impact.  They will however impact the aspiration associated with those areas.  Missing corners in the Big Tai Chi of your home will always have a negative effect on some aspect of life.  The Small Tai Chi will then take on greater importance.  Determine the aspiration, or aspirations, you seek to achieve and then locate your main door or your living area in that corner of your home.  Your front door will activate positive energy each time it is used and spending lots of time in the living area will activate positive energy and attract positive experiences.  Your personal impact will also play a large part in achieving success, whether it be in finding the job of your dreams, your ideal partner (work or personal) or gaining recognition and receiving acknowledgement for your endeavours.

Feng Shui and the Lo-Shu Grid 7-9

Continuing on with numbers and elements around the compass from seven to nine.

Remember all odd numbers represent yang energies and all even numbers represent yin energies even when the area itself may be the opposite. 

When energising locations around the compass you can be imaginative when using symbolic Feng Shui.  Use the number of the area to decide the number of enhancers you place there.  For example; 1 water feature, 2 crystal hearts, 3 plants.  Whether you live in a traditional, modern or contemporary home; whether you like lots of trinkets on display or a minimalist design you can still incorporate symbolic enhancements for each area with careful thought and planning.  These do not have to be oriental, they can be western symbols associated with each aspiration.  

  

Number Seven (7) – The number of the west and the youngest daughter (Tui) this is the small metal area.  The number 7 Red Star in the practice of Flying Star Feng Shui is currently an inauspicious number connected to violence and robbery; anything connected with metal.  However, particularly in the western world it is historically a lucky number.  It is also a lucky number for anyone who has it as their Kua number.  7 is said to be a number relating to wisdom.  Seeing it on a regular basis is an indication that you should be focusing on your goals and not be diverted from your ultimate aim.  Doing this will ensure you will succeed.  The west is also the area relating to the family, to descendants luck.  

Number Eight (8) – The auspicious number 8 is an indicator of wealth and prosperity coming in to the home when it is correctly enhanced.  Its location is the small earth area of the northeast, the area of Ken (the youngest son of the family.)  It is the education and study luck location.  Because of its similarity with the infinity symbol, or interlinking rings, the number 8 is a cyclical number indicating a recurrence of positive experiences.  It will also bring good fortune to the youngest son of the home as well as any member of the family undertaking further education or learning of any kind in college, university or in a work situation.  

Number Nine (9) – Nine is a number which signifies completion.  It is a magnifying number and this suggests that a double 9 will multiply the good fortune associated with this auspicious number.  Its home is the south, a part of the home that represents fame and recognition.  It is the area of the middle daughter (Li) and when properly enhanced the south will bring good fortune to all the family but more specifically, the daughters, the females of the family.  When the number 9 appears on a regular basis it is an indicator to be confident in your ventures with assurance of their ultimate success.  The fire element is associated with the south as is the majestic horse. You can also introduce plants into the area to feed the fire of success.  Take care of this important number, a number that can neither be destroyed or changed to bring your desires to ultimate fruition.

Feng Shui Inauspicious Numbers

Now we have covered the Auspicious Star numbers in Feng Shui and their attributes, its time to turn our thoughts to those numbers to be wary of, numbers that bring bad luck and misfortune with them.  These are all concerned with the numbers of Flying Star Feng Shui and not individual Kua numbers.

Number Two (2) Black Star The number two is a balancing number.  It is yin and yang, female and male, odd and even, it is all about completion.  In Feng Shui it is an Earth number, its home location is the Southwest and it is the number relating to the female, the mother of the family; it signifies love and relationships, in all their many forms.  It is an auspicious star during period two Flying Star Feng Shui when it brings with it wealth and good fortune, especially for females.

 

At its darkest, the number two star brings with it illness, particularly concerned with the stomach or the womb.  This can affect all the family if the number two is the annual star located in the centre of the home, based on a Flying Star chart or if it ‘flies’ into the location of your front or your back door.  As an Earth number it is strengthened by the number nine Fire star of the South.  The best suppressant is the Metal element, that is yin (still) metal such as coins.

      

Number Three (3) Jade Star During the current period eight the number 3 Jade Star brings with it a tendency to malicious gossip and injuries to legs, hands, fingers and toes.  This is a wood star and its ‘home’ is the east which is the area of the eldest son of the family so when period three comes around the eldest son can maximise his good fortune and wealth by making full use of this star.

The Jade Star is known as the argumentative star and if it combines with the number two Black Star in a Flying Star Chart it has the effect of creating what is known as quarrelsome energy; a fierce energy that brings the worst out of both numbers.  In the Five Elements Wood destroys Earth and if this appears in either the centre, the facing (front door) or the sitting (back door) locations it will cause severe misfortune for businesses or homes with this combination.

Exhaust the number three star with Fire energy.  Lights or any yin fire elements will suppress the negative qualities of this difficult star.  If you are unable to use lights, red cushions, curtains or any image that has predominantly red tones will work as well.

In a positive light, the number three is the number of the trinity of Heaven, Earth and Mankind Luck; translating as Karma, Feng Shui and Personal Contribution to the luck of the life of every person.

The number 3 is the number of Saturn, multiplied by itself it reveals the number 9.  In its original sequence of numbers the Lo-Shu Grid of Feng Shui shows each line up, down and diagonal, adding up to 15.   The total of all nine numbers adds up to 45.  Divide 45 by the number of Saturn, 3, and the sum is 15, the number of days it takes for the moon to wax then wane.  3 is one of the main numbers associated with the Lo-Shu Square; the 3 x 3 grid used to analyse many of the secrets of Time Dimension or Flying Star Feng Shui.  This square is an important ingredient to revealing the changes in energy over different time periods.

Feng Shui Auspicious Numbers 4-9

As well as the auspicious White Stars 1, 6 and 8 there are two further Stars we can mention for their positive benefits.

Number Four (4) Green Star This star is generally positively associated with learning, literary activities, writing skills and academic success.  These positive connotations are constant although the strength of their effect varies with the Flying Star period.  Being in period eight of Flying Star Feng Shui the number four star is said to be dead.  What this generally means is that because we are a long way from period four in the Flying Stars this Green Star has no power or potency; rather than ‘dead’ a better description might be that it is dormant; hibernating ready to awaken when the time is right.  On its own it can create mental stress to manifest in individuals during this dormant period.  It will not be necessary to wait until period four comes around again before being able maximise its beneficial associations.  The next time the number four will come alive in Flying Star Feng Shui is when period one takes centre stage during the 20-year period of 2044-2064.

Whatever period we are in when the number 4 Green Star combines with the number 1 White Star it is revitalised by this auspicious Water Star which serves to activate all its positive literary and academic benefits.  The reason for this is that the number 4 is a Wood star and its location is the southeast, the compass area of Small Wood.  The number 1 star is a Water star and in the productive cycle of the Five Elements – Water ‘feeds’ Wood – hence when these two flying stars combine they unleash the positive benefits of the Green Wood Star.  A word of warning however, too much water can bring with it scandals relating to personal relationships.  However to finish on a positive note during period eight when the annual Flying Star chart brings the 1 and 4 combination it brings fame for those people associated with writing and the media.

Number Nine (9) Purple Star During the current period eight the number 9 Purple Star is a ‘star in waiting.’  It is waiting to take over the mantle of the 20-year period from 2024-2044.  The number nine star is a future prosperity star that expands and multiplies whichever other star it combines with – this can be good or bad depending on the star it partners.  When combined with auspicious stars it enhances fame and recognition, success and the fulfilment of desires.  When combined with inauspicious stars it invites arguments, fire and sickness of the heart and problems with the eyes.

Much like the number eight star, the number nine star is a perennial favourite.  It is a number that will always return to ‘self.’  However you add, multiply or divide the number 9 it will always return to 9 when the total is reduced to single figures, therefore it can never be corrupted. As an example: 9x9=81; 81x9=729; 7+2+9=18; 1+8=9.  Try it, it really does work. 

When certain numbers combine and create what is known as the ‘Sum of Ten’ it is an extremely auspicious indication.  For example, when the number 1 Water Star combines with the number 9 Fire Star in Flying Star Feng Shui this indication comes to life.  On the face of it Fire and Water are directly opposite on the compass and the water destroys fire in the destructive cycle of the Five Elements however on this occasion it brings a balance of Yin and Yang and will ultimately invite family harmony.  There may be outbursts of anger caused by the fire element of the number nine star, but these will be short-lived.

There is a further combination that, when they combine, they bring long-lasting wealth.  This combination is the two stars we are discussing here the 4 and the 9.  The number 4 Wood star which lives in the long-term wealth area of the southeast, feeds the number 9 Fire star of the south in the productive cycle of the Five Elements to activate its power to magnify whatever it comes into contact with.  Therefore when the Flying Star of the period or of the year indicates this combination keep the area auspicious to activate the combined power of these stars.
