FENG SHUI Xceptions (That’s Exceptions)


Xception Number 1:
If you have even a basic knowledge of the Eight Mansions Formula of Feng Shui, you will know that each person has a Kua number based on their date of birth.  This also identifies whether you are an East Group or a West Group person.
East Group auspicious directions are North, East, Southeast and South.
West Group auspicious directions are Northeast, Southwest, West and Northwest.
What you may not be aware of is that each person is one of the 12 Chinese astrological animals based on their year of birth*.
Each of these 12 animals has a set 15o location around the compass. 
For example the Rabbit occupies 82.6 – 97.5o in the East.  If you are a West group person based on your Kua number it appears that your astrological animal is against you.  This is not the case.  Under normal circumstances ‘facing’ the East would be inauspicious for you however sitting in the West and facing your astrological animal in the East is auspicious for you.  When in doubt your astrological animal takes precedent.
This can be applied whatever your Chinese animal and your Group.
*If you were born in January or the beginning of February your astrological animal will be the one applicable in the previous year.  This is based on the Chinese lunar Yin calendar together with the solar Yang calendar which begins on or around 4 February each year.  Go to our website to identify your animal sign based on your date of birth.
Xception Number 2:
Based on your Kua number it is auspicious to face any of your good directions.
However, if this represents you ‘facing’ what is known as the Grand Duke Jupiter (Tai Sui) in any given year, it becomes inauspicious for you.  Facing the Grand Duke who occupies 15 degrees around the compass will invite his wrath.  He will be happy to support you if you sit with your back to him but do not under any circumstances face him directly.  It will bring bad luck to you for the year.
Keep the area of the Grand Duke quiet and undisturbed for the year.
During 2012, the Year of the Water Dragon, the Grand Duke occupies the location of the Dragon (112.6 – 127.5o.)
Xception Number 3:
The most inauspicious location in any year is that occupied by the Five Yellow (or Wu Wang in Chinese.)  This affliction occupies 45o of the compass and in 2012 is in the Southeast.
It is important not to disturb the ground in the Southeast during 2012 to avoid upsetting the Grand Duke Jupiter and inviting the negative consequences associated with the Five Yellow.  The Five Yellow invites five types of bad luck and is the most inauspicious affliction of all. 
Digging the ground occupied by the Five Yellow causes illness, cutting down trees can cause sickness, accident or a sudden and serious downturn in your business.  Any noise, excessive light, digging or renovation carried out in the area occupied by the Five Yellow causes serious misfortune.
Xception Number 4:
The final exception is the Three Killings or Sarm Saat in Chinese.  It occupies a massive 90o around the compass and during 2012 sits between 142.5º and 217.5º.
Just like in the area occupied by the Five Yellow the area housing the Three Killings should be kept quiet and undisturbed during the year.
It has been suggested that the Three Killings represent loss of wealth, loss of a loved one and loss of reputation.
Unlike the Grand Duke Jupiter it is better to face the Three Killings head on.  Sitting with your back to this inauspicious affliction can result in being symbolically ‘stabbed’ in the back.
