Flying Star Feng Shui

 

There are many schools of Feng Shui. Perhaps the most powerful and sophisticated is Flying Star Feng Shui (Xuankong Feixing). These are the stars of the Big Dipper.  Each star has its own form of energy.  By utilizing the time the dwelling was built as well as where it is placed, a home can be analyzed in terms of both space and time. Some Stars are beneficial, some are not. They are said to “Fly” in relationship to the earth based on the rotation of the earth on its axis and movement around the Sun. This movement fluctuates North, South, East and West according to the time of year, month or day or hour. Every structure – house, office – church, has these energetic influences guided by when the structure was built. In addition, the structure is influenced by the energetic make-up of the current year, month and day. A Flying Star assessment will let you know where these energies are in your house and what you can do about them.

It is essential that a building respond to the landforms around it and Knowledge of Feng Shui can help determine these influences and help you prevent harmful Qi from affecting your space while encouraging positive Qi from the environment.

In the Feng Shui of a home or office, the structure is looked at much like a human being.  It has a time and place it was “born”(constructed or occupied) and this time and place influences it energetically throughout its existence. The structure is thus influenced by the energy of the year. The Chinese were Masters of observation and understood the inherent nature of landforms and their influence on a dwelling, grave, or office. Through literally thousands of years of careful observation and recording, these stars were observed to produce verifiable synchronistic probabilities. Thes probabilities are represented in the numerology associated with these stars and are constantly moving, changing and rotating in a repeated cycle of 180 years. Nothing is ever stagnant. It is ever changing, evolving and devolving.
There are 9 of these Stars and they move about on a yearly, monthly and hourly basis.
This is an actual house plan with the Stars as they fall in the house, including the yearly star.
