FENG SHUI - GEN and DUI

The two youngest members Gen (son) and Dui (daughter) are the final trigrams of the family represented by the Ba Gua.
In the Early Heaven Ba Gua Gen is in the Northwest and Dui is in the Southeast.  In the Later Heaven Ba Gua Gen is in the Northeast and Dui is in the West. 
In the Early Heaven Arrangement Gen in the Northwest is the Mountain sitting directly opposite Dui, the Marsh or Lake located in the Southeast; static state of perfection.
The Later Heaven Arrangement moves Gen to the Northeast and Dui to the West.  Gen is the element of Earth and it is the trigram of the Mountain; it signifies the transition of the seasons from Winter to Spring.  Winter Earth is cold and hard with little growth; it is waiting.  Dui is the element of Metal and it is the trigram representing a lake or marsh.  This is the Autumn season when the earth is cooling in preparation for its season of rest and rejuvenation. 
GEN ()
Gen is the youngest son of the family.  The Gua of Gen is two broken Yin lines below a solid Yang line.  It represents the stillness and stability of the Mountain.  It also signifies hidden strength and a hidden storehouse;  think the metal element that is hidden deep within the mountain waiting to be discovered.  It also signifies a period of waiting and can indicate someone with a stubborn streak to their nature.
The Gua number of the Northeast is 8 and its colour is brown or ochre.
Within the body this trigram represents the backbone, nose and sinuses, fingers and toes.  A missing Northeast corner in the home will negatively affect the youngest son.  A negative external feature in the Northeast can also have a detrimental effect on the wellbeing of Gen during certain years.
DUI ()
Dui is the youngest daughter.  This Gua is made up of two Yang lines supporting a broken Yin line at the top.  It represents joy and celebration.
The Gua number of the West is Metal 7 and its colour is white or silver. This is the fine Metal of coins and jewellery; that valued for its beauty and desirability.
In the body Dui Gua represents the mouth, throat and voice.  A missing West corner or a harmful external feature will negatively affect the youngest daughter of the family. 
To the fulfillment of your dreams
