The month of May has the 2 Star joining the 3 Star in the centre of the chart, bringing challenges in the form of illness, accidents and setbacks. Marriages and close relationships could suffer from the pressure caused by the clash of elements, and those in business may find the month more challenging. Continue to keep this sector quiet and undisturbed, and place the Abundance Wu Lou or Pair of Cranes with Peaches & Bamboo here. We also suggest wearing or carrying protective amulets through May. Those who are elderly or unwell should take extra care with their health and avoid spending time in this part of the home.
Danger sectors also include the NE-NORTH-NW corridor. The NE plays host to the Five Yellow, the North receives the Loss Star and the NW is afflicted with the Quarrelsome Star. Install appropriate feng shui cures and keep the lighting around these sectors dim.
The SE-SOUTH-SW corridor, however, is exceptionally lucky with the presence of the three white stars. Hence, homes facing South will do well in May. The East emits wealth and completion luck, while the West shores up romance and scholastic luck. Plan your activities around these parts of the home.
MATRIARCH’S LUCK STRONGER THAN PATRIARCH’S The chart indicates that the luck of the Matriarch is stronger than that of the Patriarch. With two prosperity stars in the SW, mothers will be bringing everyone together and restoring harmony in the home. The NW, the sector that represents fathers and leaders, gets afflicted with the Quarrelsome Star 3, causing all kinds of problems within families and in the workplace. Ensure its bad effects are properly subdued! Harmony symbols are needed here, and do not over activate the NW with noise.
In each of the 9 grids, you will find 2 numbers. The number in the upper left corner indicates the annual star and the number in the lower right corner indicates the monthly star. Use a reliable compass to determine yourdirections or locations; the relevant grid for the kind of luck that will affect everyone in the household during that particular month. Also, if the room you occupy is located in the north sector, then you will be experiencing the kind of luck indicated by the stars there.
