Animal compability 2
Have you ever wonder why there are times you encounter tension and disagreement with someone? This can also be explained within the animal signs as they are directly confronting each other when displayed like the twelve hours of a clock. Here are the six likely situations: Rat/Horse, Ox/Goat, Tiger/Monkey, Rabbit/Rooster, Dragon/Dog, and Snake/Pig.
Exception to the rules… please bear in mind that they may not be always there to confront you, I tend to find my opposite animal among some of my good friends 
Animals compatibility
These are the twelve animals of the Chinese horoscope in the following sequence… Rat, Ox, Tiger, Rabbit, Dragon, Snake, Horse, Goat, Monkey, Rooster, Dog and Pig.
The image on the left shows the four compatible animals vertically, namely: Rat, Dragon and Monkey; Ox, Snake and Rooster; Tiger, Horse and Dog; lastly Rabbit, Goat and Pig. In these group of threes are friends, this explains why there is empathy in our relationship with others.
Besides the two friends in each group, there is one additional secret friend. They are: Rat/Ox, Tiger/Pig, Rabbit/Dog, Dragon/Rooster, Snake/Monkey, and Horse/Goat.

Flowers and potted Plants
Flowers and potted plants in our home not only beautify our living space, they also bring life and growth to the occupants. I prefer potted plants because they are easy to maintain, also plants with nice rounded leaves as opposed to sharp pointed leaves. Cut flowers are acceptable provided you change the water daily and throw them away as soon as they withered. The colors of the flowers and plants play an important role as well, for example, in the east and southeast sectors of the house which belong to the wood element under the Five Elements theory, white flowers are not too welcoming here because they do not encourage the smooth qi flow in these two sectors. Dark blue and red color plants are more suitable here. Remember? Feng Shui is all about balance and harmony in our living space.
What is considered clutter?
We all know that we cannot avoid collecting clutter; it is like dust sneaking under the sofas or gathered on top of our beautiful furniture. We clean our houses ever so often, so must we clear the clutter from time to time.
Look into your cupboards, chest of drawers, kitchen drawers, garage shelves, wardrobes, attic, under the beds, and any place where you piled up boxes of stuff which you can’t bear to throw away. I bet you will find a lot of junk which you have collected unconsciously through years of your life. So get started… throw out or give away the bits and pieces that you haven’t used to date. The broken tools and apparatus that will never get fixed; toys from when your children were young; old clothes and shoes; old magazines, newspaper, brochures, the list can go on.
Equally important is your emotional clutter… throw away those old love letters, photos of old loves, especially anything that reminds you of the bad times.
Once you’ve gone through that, you’ll be surprised to find that your house brightens up immediately, you will feel more comfortable and peaceful. This is simply because the stagnant energies are now replaced by the fresh energies and flowing freely. Now you know J
Wu lou or Calabash
Here’s a picture of Wu lou that I use to counter the sickness star #2 in the Flying Star Feng Shui. As a matter of fact, I have several wu lous in my house… I put one in the North-East sector (home of star #2 in the current Period 8 – from February 2004 to February 2024) of our house; another one in the North-West sector for 2008 where annual star #2 resides, and which I will move to the West sector where the star #2 will be located next February; I have a third one which I move monthly to the different sector according to the Monthly Flying Star, for example it is in the South-East sector for this month. Finally, I also place one each on our children’s and our night tables to ensure good health.
This is no superstition and can be explained by Yi Jing (The Book of Changes). Master Joseph Yu has written an article on this, just click on the following link if you’re interested:

A question of interpretation…
A friend emailed me the following story… “Two wolves”
One evening an old Cherokee told his grandson about a battle that goes on inside people.
He said, ‘My son, the battle is between two ‘wolves’ inside us all.
One is Evil.. It is anger, envy, jealousy, sorrow, regret, greed, arrogance, self-pity, guilt, resentment, inferiority, lies, false pride, superiority, and ego.
The other is Good. It is joy, peace, love, hope, serenity, humility, kindness, benevolence, empathy, generosity, truth, compassion and faith.’
The grandson thought about it for a minute and then asked his grandfather: ‘Which wolf wins?’
The old Cherokee simply replied, ‘The one you feed.’

Auspicious dates
I was looking at my calendar and wow… we have four consecutive auspicious days this week:
The given hours must be respected to gain maximum effects. Good luck Monthly star 5 & Annual Star 2
On June 6, I woke up with a sore throat. It took me a couple of days to realize that the Monthly star 5 is meeting annual star 2 in the NW sector this solar month starting June 5 at 4:12pm to end on July 7 at 2:35am. This NW direction happens to be our bedroom. So if your bedroom, living room, dining room, study, any or most of your activities is found in this NW area, please try to keep it as calm as possible. Remove red color or triangular shape objects as they would stimulate the earth energies of these two stars, thus aggravating the situation. I also suggest placing a metal wu lou here. You can also place five golden balls in a golden basket to pacify star 5.
May you have good health
