Ox 2018 Chinese Animal PredictionsOx 2018 Chinese Animal Predictions

Hard-working, persistent, conservative, loyal and private; the year of the Yang Earth Dog will be a busy one for the Ox, which includes some pleasurable social occasions and travel.   The year will arrive with some unexpected challenges and pressures but be assured, Ox, that your rewards will come in the long-term.

Work Life for the Ox in 2018

Chinese animal career predictions for 2018There will be much to achieve and accomplish during the year, and the strength and perseverance characteristics of the Ox will help see him through any challenges.  The Ox will have much to gain by applying his usual tenacity to projects.

The Dog year will be a demanding one, and the Ox could find additional expectations placed on him which could increase workload.   Once again, the Ox will discover new abilities and strengths by taking on any new demands.   He will enjoy the benefits from his efforts in upcoming years.

The Dog year will not be the best year for work change.  If the Ox is determined to change employment, then he will need to be prepared to work hard.  The Ox can maximise a positive outcome by keeping an open mind when job hunting as he may find himself in an entirely new, unexpected position.  He may even commence training for something new, and this will be an opportunity for the Ox to develop further skills and expand his work associate circle.  If work is a priority this year April, May, September and November will be the ideal months.

Finances for the Ox in 2018

Many Oxen will enjoy an increase in income during the year of the Dog.  However, this is not the time to overspend or be frivolous.   The Ox will need to budget wisely and most especially if he plans to make any significant purchases, participate in the share market, consider home renovations or travel.  The Ox is by nature a methodical creature, and this will serve him well when it comes to any financial papers including Tax Returns.

Domestic and Social Life for the Ox in 2018

Chinese animal social predictions for 2018Home-life is very important to the Ox and the year of the Dog will be an active one.  The organisational skills of the Ox will be called upon and appreciated, especially with regards to travel arrangements for a special family holiday.

There could also be an occasion when a relative decides to visit.  The Ox needs to temper his feelings if experiencing frustration over attitude, plans or viewpoint.   The Ox will benefit by taking a deep breath, calming himself down and having a quiet discussion to enable all to express their thoughts and feelings.  Master your temper Ox and all will appreciate and pay more heed to your viewpoint.

Invitations to events and an increase in the Oxen’s social circle will also be a highlight this year.  Many will take up a new interest or participate in community activities which will ultimately initiate new connections and friendships.

Chinese animal social predictions for 2018The Year of the Dog will also find many Oxen enjoying a new relationship and settle down.  2018, however, is not the best time to plan or have a baby, so consider waiting a couple of years.  Plan the arrival of your new baby for the year of the Rat which will be a perfect time.   If planning a wedding then March, April, May, and September will be an excellent time.

Although some Oxen are not fans of travel, there will be opportunities to visit and explore various countries both near and far.   The break in routine will bring many benefits to the Ox, and he will feel inspired with increased creativity.  There may also be occasions to travel for work which could cause some frustration.

Overall, the year of the Yang Earth Dog will be a busy but favourable time for the Ox.  Travel, new friends and special occasions with the family will be enjoyed and appreciated.   There will be challenges at work but nothing that the resolute Ox can’t handle.   If the Ox learns to control his outbursts of anger and impatience, he will learn much and connect deeper with work-mates, family, and friends.

As an Ox you are in affinity with the Rat. For your protection, you should have a key chain pendant of a Rat or a Gold plated Chinese Animal protection Talisman of a Rat with you at all times throughout the year.

Your lucky sectors: (astrological zone) is the Northeast (22.5º – 37.5º) of the home or office. For full details on 2018 flying star analysis follow this link.

2018 Cures and Enhancers for the year of the Yang Earth Dog

To enhance wealth, luck, business and career for the Ox in 2018:

Wealth cures 2017

The last Wu Xu You Yang Earth Dog years were in 1958, 1898 and 1838, each of the years were unstable with severe clashes of energies and this year very special cures and enhancers are need more than ever and the most influential and crucial cure and enhancer in 2018 is called a  Jiebaopinchuan Master Cure and can only to be used in a Yang Earth Dog Wu Xu years. The last time that this powerful cure and enhancer would have been used was in 1958 which was also a Yang Earth Dog year although only a privileged few got to use it.

This cure is used to protect and enhance wealth and good luck in 2018, especially for the eldest daughter or female of the home or office if a daughter is not present although equally needed for males especially for wealth.

This Cure is only known to a few specialist Feng Shui Grand Masters and in the old days and even now in Asia, you would need to employ a specialist Feng Shui Grand Master to call at your home or business where they would come along with a specialist zhuanke (seal carver) who would spend many hours carving the secret inscriptions on to the square earth plate with a powerful Taoist inscription for the Wu Xu year and would be carved on a large piece of polished clear quartz crystal. The seal carver (zhuanke) and Feng Shui Master was traditionally hired by emperors and the very wealthy and was seen as a symbol of great wealth and power and this took many years of studying to perfect this specialist art form.

This is an extremely powerful enhancer and said to create wealth and also prevent its loss and avoid bad luck in 2018.

The most crucial part of this cure and enhancer is the thought form quartz crystals and engravings which are used to draw in the #8 star energy and permeate to the other eight palaces of the Lo shu making this a very powerful enhancer and one that we have gone to lengths creating and sourcing the correct elements which took us over two years.

This is one of the most powerful and commanding cure and enhancer for wealth, health, relationships and protection and because this cure is very important for wealth in 2018 we included it standard in all our 2018 cures and enhancers kits.

To enhance romance for the Ox in 2018:

How to enhance romance in 2018

Romance, academic and creative studies can be enhanced in the south (#4 star) of your home, click here for further details. Whilst this #4 star is very auspicious, without the necessary cures, the #4 star can bring both wanted and unwanted romantic opportunities to the household if the correct cures are not put in place especially if you have a main entrance or an important room like a master bedroom or living room.

To enhance romance and career in 2018, place Taohua Mandarin Ducks along with the Shou Kun Qi Fu picture frame in the south of your home or business, you should also introduce some water colours like shades of blue, black, grey,  you can introduce these colours with a doormat, rug, cushion cover, sofa throw, curtains or similar, it really is very easy to do.

Make sure you follow the 2018 Flying Star (Xuan Kong) recommendations. If your office or bedroom is located in the south, please be aware that in the months of June and September 2018 you should make sure you at least place a Six Chinese i-ching coins In a row  tied in a row with red ribbon, especially if you are not in good health or very stressed and especially for the eldest male or any male of a home or business.

Avoiding bad luck in 2018

How to avoid danger in 2018

As we have the #2 black star enter the west of the lo shu in 2018, special cures and enhancers are needed more than ever but at the very least to help disperse the negative effects, you should hang a set of six Chinese coins tied with red ribbon and a salt water cure in the west and north of your home or office this year to control the #5 and #2 stars. For full details on 2018 flying star analysis follow this link. This is very important in 2018 especially if you have a main door, bedroom, office, lounge or other important room in the west, east, north or northeast.

This is just a small part of what you can do to ensure 2018 will be a good year and to further enhance 2018 I would suggest checking out the monthly almanac, flying stars and animal predictions as it not only recommends good and bad days to carry out certain tasks, it will also advise if it is good for your animal sign.

If you would like to be informed in advance of the monthly, annual and fixed flying stars giving you the ultimate control of your home or business, you should consider our 2018 advanced Feng Shui software; it is used by thousands of Feng Shui Masters, Practitioners and students throughout the world.

The Three Killings – north (322.5 – 37.5)

Where can I dig in 2018

 

It is important that you try not to make any form of noisy renovations or re-decorative work in the north part of your house or office between February 4th 2018 and February 4th 2019 as we have the Three Killings located in the north together with  the annual 5 yellow for the year. You should not disturb the ground by digging holes, digging foundations or conduct any maintenance work with any noisy equipment in this area inside or outside your property or garden. If you have no option but to perform work in the north, I would advise that you place a 6 Metal rod wind chime during 2018 around the time the work is being carried out. This is the worst out of all the annual afflictions and in our home and business we take this very seriously as in our 37 years’ experience with Feng Shui, we have seen some pretty nasty events from this energy when disturbed and this is usually the reason of the problem when people trace back the Flying stars for their home when problems occur.

There are also another two other rules that you should follow regarding the Three Killings in 2018. Firstly, if you are moving your desk around this year, never sit with your back towards the north, it is better to face north instead.

  • Do not sit with your back to the three killings in 2o18
  • Sit facing the three killings (north)
  • Try to keep noise to a minimum in the north in 2018

What direction door is good feng shui in 2018If the front door of your home or office faces the north, you should take care not to slam the door as the Three Killings can be a lot more settled if the door is opened and shut calmly; this also applies to internal doors and definitely the case if the north of your home is a children’s bedroom or play room. The best cures for the north in 2018 are to place a six rod hollow metal wind chime  along with a salt water cure and six Chinese i-ching coins in a row from the 4th February 2018 to the 4th February 2019. The 6 metal rod wind chime should be tapped often to make the chimes jingle and will not activate the three killings as this is only a slight noise. You can also place a pair of Fu Dogs or a Ba Gua Mirror if you have a door located here.

If you need to urgently carry out repairs to your home or office in the north, you should place a six hollow metal rod wind chime between the buildings and where the work is being carried out and ideally you should contact a professional Feng Shui Consultant to select an auspicious date to start the work or you can use our Tong Shu software.

 

Tai Sui (The Grand Duke of Jupiter) – northwest (292.5º – 307.5º)

Like the Three Killings, Tai Sui does not like to be disturbed either. The effects of Tai Sui can be good or bad depending on the annual flying stars that coincide with its location and in 2018, we also have the visiting Kan 1 White Kan (Tang Lang) water star in the northwest which can cause problems for the middle son and it could affect ears, kidneys or blood related. If you have any poison arrows like lamp post, pylons or large comers of house’s pointing toward this area consider hanging a flat ba gua mirror outside pointing towards the offending object.

What areas should I keep quiet in 2018If your property or front door faces northwest in 2018, you must try to avoid the doors from slamming when entering or leaving your home or office as this will almost certainly disturb Tai Sui and cause problems for the members of the home or office. You should avoid digging or renovating your property in this area at all costs if possible. If you have an office or shop door in the northwest this year, I would strongly recommend installing a soft close attachment if possible and if you have children in your home, try to keep these doors from being slammed. Laura’s daughter has her bedroom located in the northwest although they are quite lucky as she is only two and a half years old and spends the majority of her time in the living room when she is playing. The traditional Chinese method to appease Tai Sui is to place a Jiang Wu Tai Sui gold plated plaque for 2018 to pay respect and appease the Deity along with an Arowana fish sitting on bed of coins to enhance the annual #1 star. By paying respect to Grand Duke of Jupiter, we can weaken or avoid the problems that this can bring. This is really important this year and we have included the Jiang Wu Tai Sui plaque in all our annual cures and enhancers kits. In 2018, the ruling Tai Sui is great general Jiang Wu who is one of 60 heavenly generals. The Tai Sui plaque is plated in gold to represent wealth and was specially made for 2018, year of the Yang Earth Dog to be placed in the northwest. The slate stand is used to represent earth which creates a cycle of earth feeding Metal which in turn enhances the #1 annual water star to enhance wealth in the northwest in the year of the Dog.

Sui Po (Year Breaker) – southeast (112.5º – 127.5º)

Loud noises sui po 2018

Sui Po year breaker occupies the division directly opposite Tai Sui Grand Duke, in 2018 is in the southeast with Tai Sui located in the northwest for the year of the Yang Earth Dog. You should treat this area the same as any other annual afflictions with no ground-breaking work, renovations or any noisy activities in the southeast this year. If disturbed, this area can and usually will cause immediate health problems especially with regards to the elderly, so please be very careful. Traditionally to appease Sui Po in a Dog year, you would need to display a Jiebaopinchuan Master Cure and Cai Leishui crystal talisman which we have included in all of our 2018 Cures and Enhancers kits.

If you have to carry out work or emergency repairs in the southeast, place a 6 Metal rod wind chime between the buildings and where the work is being carried out and ideally you should contact a professional Feng Shui Practitioner to select an auspicious date to start the work or consult our Tong Shu date selection software.

The annual five yellow star – north (337.5 – 22.5)

The annual five yellow star has flown into the north in 2018 along with the Three Killings so it is vital that the north is looked after this year with the appropriate cures and enhancers. The Annual #5 yellow enters the north, we have the inherent water energy of the north destroying the visiting energy of the #5 earth star which will weaken the influence of the annual #5 slightly although please do not leave this area untreated as there could still be problems such as sickness, lawsuits and major loss of wealth.  It is vital that the north has as much protection as possible as the Three Killings is also located here for 2018. It is highly recommended not to disturb the north of your home or business with noisy activities, renovations or maintenance work. When disturbed, the Five Yellow can bring disaster, sickness, lawsuit and major loss of wealth so please be very careful as it is very afflicted. You must place Six Chinese i-ching coins in a row , a six rod hollow metal wind chime and a salt water cure in the north to avoid the problems that are associated the #5 yellow disaster star in 2018.

Please do not start panicking if you have a bedroom or office that is located in the north, southeast or northwest, just start preparing to place your 2018 cures and enhancers kit from the 4th February 2018 to ensure a trouble free year and also cleanse any old cures that you will be reusing this year, and of course make sure you sign up for our free newsletter so you are kept up to date with the monthly flying stars giving you even more control of your destiny. To give you even better control, use our advanced Feng Shui 2018 software as this gives advanced analysis of every home or office facing any direction in any part of the world.

  1. Hello,

    I am 32/F Wood Ox.
    What sign and element would I be most compatible with and what is my love outlook for the rest of 2018?
    Please let me know what other info I can provide. Thank you!

    1. Hi Anne,

      You are most compatible with the Rat. Relationships are looking good for the wood ox this year although it is important that you let things progress naturally rather than rush them.

      If you would like to know more about the Wood Oxen’s predictions for the year, here is a link to our 2018 Feng Shui guide – https://www.fengshuiweb.co.uk/shop/fengshuikits/chinese-astrology-tong-shu-almanac-and-feng-shui-recommendations-for-yang-earth-dog-2018

      Kind regards,
      Daniel

    1. Hi Hannah,

      The Ox has a lot of respect for the Dog’s many fine qualities but both possess a sense of stubbornness and relations between these two animals may not always be the easiest because of this.

      In a parent and child relationship, the Ox parent will often encourage the young Dog, although the Ox parent will not always fully appreciate the Dogs sensitive nature. These two animals will need to handle their relations carefully and with contemplation.

      At work, the Ox and Dog have different outlooks and without the Ox sharing the Dogs idealistic views or having patience for the Dogs negative moods this could cause arguments at times. These two animals will often prefer to work with someone more in tune with their own attitudes although they can be quite compatible if they learn to settle their differences.

      In love, these two animals are loyal and faithful to each other and have a great deal to learn from each other. The Ox will feel reassured by the Dogs helpful nature and will also value their cautious and loving ways. However, the Ox may not always be so patient with the Dogs tendency to worry about everything and will sometimes lose their patience over this, although it is usually short-lived. With understanding and compromise, this relationship can be very good as long as both animals are willing to make adjustments.

  2. Hi Michael,
    I live in a townhouse and north is a common wall shared with my neighbour. How would I place my wind chime this year. I have always thought that wind chimes should never be hung indoors.
    Thank you
    Sally

    1. Hi Sally,

      You can place your wind chimes indoors on the north wall; just remember to chime them every now and again softly when you walk past.

      The wind chimes are fine inside; it is Ba Gua mirrors that should not be placed inside the home.

      Kind regards,
      Daniel

    Thank you,
    Anna

    1. Hi Anna,

      Your best directions to face are: west, northeast, southwest and northwest.

      For 2018, you should not face Tai Sui (northwest and ideally so I would recommend facing the west, northeast or southwest in 2018.
