Year of Ox 2009

Next year 2009 is Year of Ox, but this Ox will arrive slightly later. To be exact, Year of Ox will commence on the tenth day of Lunar New Year. The first day of Lunar New Year is 26 Jan 2009. And Year of Ox will start only on 4 Feb 2009 at 0052hrs.

So do not be mistaken that babies born within the period of 26 Jan 2009 to 03 Feb 2009 are babies ox, they are in fact still babies rat! Only babies that are born on 4 Feb 2009 after 0052hrs are considered as babies ox.

Next year, is Ji Chou Nian 己丑年, which means that is an Earth Ox. It will be both earth on the Heavenly Stem and Earthly Branch, the earth chou 丑 underneath earth Ji 己 is soggy earth, just like after a heavy downpour, earth chou is wet and soft. This soggy earth contains too much water therefore it cannot hold anything heavy, by putting anything heavy on top it, it will sink.

With such illustration, you can imagine what is going to be in store next year! However, Earth Chou welcomes summer, only with hot sun shining on it, it will not be wet and soft. So metal industry and property industry will reach its peak during this period.

For health matter, do pay special attention to the following illness: mouth, lung, reproductive organs, bladder, kidney and ears. Terminated illness will rise.

Additional information for those who are born in year of Ox, Dragon, Goat and Dog, it is believed that those who are born in the above-mentioned year, they Fang, Chong and Xing Tai Sui (犯，冲，刑太岁).

Note : Above article is written based on yearly heavenly stem and earthly branch. A person's luck still depend very much on each own individual's bazi. If you want to know your future well-being, please consult a professional Ming Li Shi, master for advise.

Tying the knots

Did you know that it is important to pick an auspicious date to tie the knot (to get married)? One common question which people like to ask is," The auspicious date should goes to ROM (Register of Marriage) or Customary?" In my opinion, which ever comes first. For instance, if you are planning to get registered this year and hold your customary wedding next year. Then in this instance, you should choose an auspicious date for your ROM. However, if you can get another auspicious date for customary date, then that will be a bonus!

I know there are couples that did not pay special attention when come to their ROM date. Some couples would simply pick a date just to mark a certain occasion of their relationship such as their first day of relationship, first time they met or even birthday! Others would choose a date that is easy to remember, like for example 20 Aug 2008, which can be read as 20/08/2008 :- 20082008.

Getting a date without considering the fact whether is auspicious for both married parties could spell disaster in the later of their relationship! Especially in the case when both parties' bazi show signs of clash in their house of spouse. In additional to that, if the chosen date also collided with their bazi (house of spouse). Chances of having a blissful marriage will become slimmer.

So if you are planning to tie the knot soon, my advise is, consult a reputed fengshui master that would advise an auspicious date only after he had look through your bazi and your spouse-to-be bazi.

With that note, I would like to wish those getting married couples, A Happy Marriage! And I would like to take this opportunity to wish my following friends:

1. Chor Lee
2. Hui Ying
3. Jeffery
4. Kalai
5. Paul


Wish you a blissful marriage. Congratulations! Cheers!

Beijing Olympic Closing Ceremony

A big round of applause to the Beijing Olympic Games Organisers' Committee and the performers. I felt touched when I watched the closing ceremony, the performances were full of surprises and I felt proud for them. I must say that both opening and closing ceremony were fantastic!

Thank you Beijing for making this Olympic Games a great success!

Tower

We were heading for an exhibition, while on the way there. I saw this signal tower and electrical cable towers. These are common sightings in bigger countries, where electrical cables are not underground.

Do you think such towers will have any impact on you?

Toilet located in the centre

When I just started my fengshui research, there were records stated that toilet should be ideally located outside of the house. In fact, back in the olden days, toilets were never located inside any dwellings. Let alone, having a toilet next to a bedroom.

It is believed that toilet contains the most negative energy in any part of dwelling. Therefore, having a toilet close to you will bring problems. But in our modern living, having a toilet nearer to us can bring us alot of convenience! Especially for places that experience 4 seasons, for example; winter time, toilet located in the centre of the house is really a must! Which I did not realise this when I was in Brisbane and that was in year 2000.

Now, having through another winter season. I realise the importance of having a toilet located right inside the house.
