What do we do with this information?

In every building, there are good and bad palaces that affect our daily lives. How and who gets affected (good or bad) depends on who occupies which area of the home or business. The best Cure is to be aware of the influences each month and know how to capitalise on the beneficial energies or avoid the unfavourable influences either through enhancers or cures or avoidance. Knowing the effects of the influences allows us to take appropriate measures and actions to calm interactions.

So, do not get too worried when you come across a particularly bad sector – sometimes, with thought, care and the appropriate elements, we can balance any conflict of energies or compensate for the lack of an element to bring harmony to a palace. If a palace is particularly bad, avoidance is the best cure. Please do not panic when you find that your bedroom is located in an affected sector for the month. This is only a temporary influence and can be avoided.

• Use the beneficial areas more and the areas of negative influences less. For example, if the living room is affected by conflicting energies, try not to play loud music in this room for the month. By keeping the area quiet, you successfully manipulate the effect of the energies.
• If possible, use another door if your main door is affected this month.
• Use the good sectors to solve existing problems, whether they concern relationships or money matters.

If your main door is affected and this is the only door you have on your property, you should take extra care in what you do during the affected month. You will know it may not be a good time to take risks, and also to take extra care of your health.

Xuan Kong Flying Stars September 2026

From the 7th of September to the 7th of October 2026, it is the eighth month of the year of the Yang Fire Horse – Ding You (Yin Fire Rooster) month, with the ruling energy of #1 in the central grid.

During September 2026, the monthly Flying stars will match up with the annual stars, creating double energy in each compass sector for the month. 

If you already have your annual cures and enhancers in place, you can leave the home as it is this month and would not need to make any changes for the monthly stars.

If you haven’t treated the annual Flying Stars this year, I have added the annual analysis for 2026, which is filled with great advice for making the most of the visiting influence in September 2026.

The best locations for candles in September are the east, northeast, west and southeast.

The best location for crystals in September is in the east, northeast, north and west.

The best location for plants in September is the southwest and southeast.

Kan 1 White  In 2026, Kan trigram flies into the central palace 

Kan #1 is a water element. In the physical body, it is the ear. The internal organ is the kidneys, and it is also blood. It also affects career and luck.

In period 9, the #1 star is the secondary wealth star, and when activated correctly, it can bring success in both career and finances.

The #1 star during period 9 Feng Shui
Auspicious or inauspicious – Auspicious
Influence, when activated – Enhances career, wealth, and overall luck
Enhance with – water and metal cures

Kan water #1 (Tang Lang) has flown into the central palace; this has an inherent earth energy which will be trying to destroy the #1 stars water energy, and we will need to enhance the centre with water and metal cures in 2026 to help strengthen and activate this #1 star.

The central palace will have a direct influence on the whole household and workplace, making this an essential area to correctly enhance this year. When activated, the centre helps to bring luck and advancements to career, finances and relationships.

Colour choices for the centre in 2026 – white, silver, gold, copper, bronze, black, grey, blue
Colours to avoid in the centre in 2026 – green, brown, terracotta, beige, yellow, red, orange, purple, pink, burgundy, lilac
Elements to use in the centre in 2026 – Metal and water
Elements to avoid in the centre in 2026 – Wood, fire and earth

The centre is especially important to enhance in 2026, as when we have an auspicious star here, activating the area will help the energy to permeate across the whole building; this is especially important if you have an important room here, which you likely will.

Traditionally, you would use metal cures to strengthen and water cures to nourish the inherent energy of the #1 star, bringing powerful luck in new opportunities for the occupants, resulting in success in financial ventures and academic pursuits, and enhancing romance and relationships.

If you have any poison arrows outside your home that have a clear path towards the centre of the building, such as large windows that show the centre or a main door, place a Ba Gua mirror on the exterior wall directly facing the direction of the poison arrow. Common examples of poison arrows include a busy road, a sharp corner of another building, or power lines directed at your home. The safest option is a Ba Gua wealth protection mirror, especially if you are new to using Ba Gua mirrors. Avoid using convex or concave mirrors unless specifically recommended by a professional.

If you prefer not to use the Wu Lou Hugua Bottle Gourd Amulet or other traditional cures in your home or office in 2026, you can place colours and decorations that represent the elements of water or metal. Suitable colours include grey, black, blue, white, silver, gold, copper, and bronze, which can be introduced through items such as cushions, throws, artwork, or decorative accessories. If your bedroom or office is located in the centre, please try to place some form of brass Wu Lou here to protect and enhance wealth.

When working with colours in the centre this year, please avoid anything that represents wood, earth or fire colours such as green, brown, terracotta, beige, yellow, red, orange, purple, pink, burgundy, or lilac, as these will drain energy from the #1 star this year, causing a loss of wealth. If you already have these colours present in the central palace of your home and they cannot be easily changed, you can leave them as they are, but try to balance them by adding complementary colours, such as water or metal colours. For example, if you have a beige carpet, you can introduce a black or white rug to create better harmony and balance in this area.

If you are introducing furniture and ornaments as cures in the centre this year, I would try choosing objects with waves and ripples or round objects, as these shapes bring good water and metal influence. If you have any heavy metal furniture, this will work well in the centre.

Businesses involved in investments, trading, jewellery, or online retailing can expect better times if they have an office or main door facing east this year.

Enhancement summary and advice for the #1 visiting the centre in 2026

• If your bedroom falls into the centre in 2026, place a brass Wu Lou on your bedside table or beneath your bed, and use bedding in water or metal colours such as white, silver, gold, copper, bronze, black, blue, grey, or charcoal.
• If you prefer not to use a Wu Lou, consider positioning a heavy, round metal object near your bed. A simple and effective alternative is to place a good-quality frying pan under your bed.
• To enhance and protect future wealth, place a Wu Lou Hugua Bottle Gourd Amulet in the centre of your home or office.
• Avoid using earth, fire, or wood colours such as green, red, pink, purple, orange, burgundy, beige, and terracotta. Instead, choose blues, blacks, greys, charcoal, white, silver, and gold shades.
• Place 6 Chinese I-Ching coins tied in a row in the centre to strengthen auspicious energy for the year.
• Try to avoid burning candles too often in the centre unless the monthly flying stars indicate it is safe to do so.
• Place a metal Feng Shui singing bowl in the centre of your home or workplace to enhance and protect the energy of the #1 star. Try to chime this when possible to help activate the area.
• Metal objects and furniture are beneficial when placed in the centre this year.
• Avoid using large crystals in this sector, as they can weaken the positive energy of the #1 star.

• If preferred, you can use round metal shapes as substitutes for traditional Feng Shui items, though they will not be as effective. Please avoid sharp or aggressive-looking metal objects.

Kun 2 Black (Ju Men) visits the northwest in 2026

The #2 star is taking on an auspicious role during period 9 and has taken on a timely role. There will be many websites and masters who say that this star can be activated straight away with fire cures, bringing lots of luck to the occupants; please, please do not take this advice as the #2 star is still an unstable one and should not be activated this way without extremely specialist advice with a full consultation done for period 9 beforehand.

The #2 star during period 9 Feng Shui
Auspicious or inauspicious – Auspicious, although this will need to be enhanced carefully for the first few years of period 9
Influence when activated – Enhances health, luck, relationships and wealth
Enhance with –earth cures combined with metal

While the northwest will have an auspicious influence in 2026, this area must be treated with care and activated with the correct cures and enhancers. For the first few years, we will need to activate the annual #2 star with a careful balance of earth and metal cures to maintain the inherent energy’s stability without creating excessive strength in this star. Whatever you do, please avoid introducing new fire colours in the northwest in 2026, as this will bring excessive energy. If you already have these colours in place and they cannot be easily removed, you can leave them; however, please balance them by introducing some complementary metal colours.

When introducing cures into the northwest in 2026, it is important that you get a good balance between metal and earth; having a majority of one of these elements can cause adverse effects with regard to health, luck, relationships and wealth, so please be careful when treating this area.

Colour choices for the northwest in 2026 – A mix of white, silver, gold, copper, bronze, along with brown, terracotta, beige and yellow
Colours to avoid in the northwest in 2026 – green, red, orange, purple, pink, burgundy, lilac, black, grey, blue
Elements to use in the northwest in 2026 – Metal combined with earth
Elements to avoid in the northwest in 2026 – Wood, fire and water

If you prefer to use colours and elements over traditional cures and enhancers in the northwest this year, you can place good quality metal items here, such as rust-free raw metal along with crystals or earth colours; try to make sure that the items don’t have too many imperfections. A good example would be to place a handful of crystals on a metal tray that is in proportion.

When using large furniture or decorative items this year, try to select pieces that are smooth in shape and rectangular, as these will support the required elements during the year of the Horse. Please do not worry if the existing furniture or shapes in this area do not align with these recommendations and cannot be moved; simply introduce the suggested colours and elements to create balance.

Please remember that although the #2 star has become timely in period 9 (2026 – 2044), we still need to treat this star with care for the next few years before we can use it to its full potential. A good balance of metal along with earth will help to activate the #2 star, without causing issues.

Enhancers and advice for the #2 visiting the northwest in 2026

• Place a Shuangjian Zhongnian Coin Talisman in the northwest during 2026 to help protect and stabilise the energies here.
• A very effective cure for the #2 star in the early years of Period 9 is to place a metal wish bowl filled with eight small crystals.
• Place a Hexie Ling Harmony bell Talisman in the northwest in 2026 to strengthen positive energy and attract good fortune. Try to chime the bell when you walk past it, as this will help activate the northwest.
• If you prefer not to use traditional cures and enhancers in the northwest for 2026, you can introduce good-quality metal objects and colours, along with crystals or earth-coloured items that are smooth or square in shape, ensuring both elements are used in equal balance.
• Avoid using red tones in this area and refrain from displaying triangular shapes or fiery images.
• Avoid burning candles or using bright lights in the northwest this year; if you already have these colours or lights in place and they cannot be removed, balance the energy by introducing metal.

Chen 3 Jade, the sound of Lu Chun #3 Jade will fly into the West in 2026

In 2026, we will have the annual #3 star fly into the west palace of homes, business and workplaces across the world, and when left untreated and activated by noise, disruption or incorrect elements, this can bring problems for all occupants,  stress, legal issues, disputes, loss of wealth, theft and arguments. Although the West has the potential to cause problems in 2026, this is an easy area to treat in 2026.

The #3 star during period 9 Feng Shui
Auspicious or inauspicious – Inauspicious
Influence when activated – stress, legal issues, disputes, loss of wealth, theft and arguments
Weaken with –Fire and earth cures.

In period 9, the #3 star will remain untimely and can cause issues when activated in our home or workplace, such as loud renovations or the use of water or wood cures. You may have come across websites saying that the #3 star will be usable during period 9. While there is some truth to this in special circumstances, this is extremely hard to get right and not something that I will be advising to anyone during period 9; this is the same as how we have always avoided activating the #2 star during period 8.

The West will affect all occupants of the home and workplace this year when activated, although this will be especially harmful to females and the youngest daughter in particular. Therefore, please treat this area carefully in 2026.

Colour choices for the West in 2026 – red, orange, purple, burgundy, pink, lilac, brown, terracotta, yellow, beige
Colours to avoid in the West in 2026 – green, white, silver, gold, copper, bronze, black, grey, blue
Elements to use in the West in 2026 – fire and earth
Elements to avoid in the West in 2026 – wood, metal and water

To remedy the effects of the annual #3 star in 2026, you should introduce fire and earth cures, such as crystals and candles, this year to weaken or drain the wood star. Lamps, candles, and LED lighting will work well in the West this year as the fire energy will weaken the annual star.

The upside to having the #3 star fall into this area is if you follow our advice each year, there is little to change here from last year, as we had the annual #4 star in the West last year, and the two stars share the same element and will be treated the same way with fire and earth cures.

If you have a bedroom, office, living room, kitchen or other important room in the West this year, I would suggest placing a Red Pi Yao statue to control and weaken the influence of the #3 star in 2026.

If possible, try to avoid any renovation or ground-breaking work in the West this year. This includes activities such as building an extension, knocking down internal walls, laying a patio, replacing a bathroom suite, or undertaking similar projects. If it is unavoidable and you must carry out work, aim to do so when a favourable monthly star visits the West — during February, March, April, June, October, November, December, or January 2027.

Please avoid having wood, water or metal cures in the West during 2026 as the water will enhance the bad annual star, and the metal will destroy the annual star, which is too strong of an energy and will cause much more severe problems.

If you have a water feature or fish tank in the West of your home or workplace during 2026, please consider removing this, as this will enhance the annual #3 star, causing the malevolent influence to strengthen. If you are unable to move the water, please make sure that you introduce some strong fire colours by the water feature or fish tank.

Remedies and advice for the #3 visiting the West in 2026

•  A quick and effective cure is to place a light in the West of your home or office. If possible, choose a lamp with a wooden base and a peach or red shade for the best results.
• Place a Red Pi Yao statue in the West of your home or workplace throughout 2026 to protect against negative influences.
• Avoid using metal cures in the West this year, and do not hang windchimes in this area.
• Take extra security precautions for your home or business during 2026, and ensure that smoke alarms are checked regularly.
• Regularly lighting a candle in the West of your home or office will help to weaken the effects of the annual #3 star.
• Read all documents carefully before signing anything, especially if your office is located in the West in 2026.
• Be cautious of potential backstabbing or hidden conflict, as it may come from someone you thought you could trust.
• Avoid placing water features in the West unless you are confident in interpreting your fixed flying stars.
• Introduce fire and earth colours in the West to help weaken the negative influence of the #3 wood star.

Sun 4 Green has flown into the northeast of the Lo Shu square in 2026

In period 9, the #4 star becomes inauspicious, and when activated, this star can cause issues related to romance, friendship, career, general well-being and focus. We will now be weakening the #4 star throughout period 9 (2024–2044) to ensure that this untimely star remains settled and does not cause problems in our home and workplace.

The #4 star during period 9 Feng Shui
Auspicious or inauspicious – Inauspicious
Influence when activated – Issues related to romance, friendship, career, general well-being and focus
Weaken with –Fire and earth cures.

While it is still possible to activate the #4 star to enhance relationships during period 9, it is not advised to do this with the annual star, and this should be reserved for someone with a lot of knowledge about their natal chart.

When the #4 star is activated during Period 9, it can bring challenges in relationships and careers, and may even lead to affairs or breakups in romantic partnerships. If your bedroom or another important room is located in the northeast this year, introduce fire colours in this area to weaken the negative influence, and try to keep the space calm and quiet throughout the year.

Colour choices for the northeast in 2026 – Red, orange, purple, burgundy, lilac, pink, brown, terracotta, beige, yellow
Colours to avoid in the northeast in 2026 – white, silver, gold, copper, bronze, all shades of green, blue, black, grey
Elements to use in the northeast in 2026 – Fire and earth
Elements to avoid in the northeast in 2026 – Wood, metal and water

If you still have wish enhancers from previous years, you can place those made of earth materials, such as slate, in this area for 2026. However, they will be more effective in the east, where the annual #8 star resides and has become the Peach Blossom star during Period 9. Please avoid reusing any wooden wish enhancers for the #4 star in Period 9, as wood will activate its inauspicious energy. Wooden wish enhancers and cures can instead be used for the annual #9 star, which will be located in the southeast in 2026. Suitable cures for the northeast this year are the same as those used to treat the #3 star, such as a red Buddha or candles.

Please do not introduce any wood, metal, or water colours into the northeast of your home or workplace in 2026, as these will aggravate the wood element of the annual #4 star. Suitable colours for the northeast this year include red, orange, purple, burgundy, lilac, pink, brown, terracotta, beige, and yellow. Avoid using white, silver, gold, copper, bronze, all shades of green, blue, black, and grey in this area. If these colours are already present and cannot be easily changed, balance the energy by introducing fire and earth colours and related cures.

Recommendations and cures for the #4 visiting the northeast in 2026

• Use red, orange, purple, burgundy, lilac, pink, brown, terracotta, beige, and yellow in your décor in the northeast of your home or office during 2026.
• Place an Aochutou Protection amulet in the northeast of your home or office for the year.
• The northeast is an ideal area to burn candles in 2026, as this will help to weaken the negative influence of the annual #4 star.
• Avoid placing large potted plants in the northeast this year, as they will strengthen the unwanted wood energy.
• Display Red Buddhas, such as the Paijie Laughing Protection Buddha, to help reduce the effects of the #4 star in 2026.
• Avoid using too many green or metal colours in the northeast, as these will aggravate the annual #4 star.
• Maintain calm and quiet in the northeast throughout the year.

The 5 Yellow In 2026 – The annual 5 Yellow Lian Zhen star of tragedy is located in the south.

In 2026, the south will become a very troublesome area, as we will have the annual #5 star fly here along with Tai Sui. When this area is kept settled and the correct cures are placed, it will stay dormant and not cause issues. However, if the south has a lot of activity here throughout the year, this can cause illness, financial problems and even fatalities in some cases, although this area is pretty straightforward to cure this year.

In period 9, the #5 star remains an inauspicious star, and care and powerful metal cures will be needed to keep this influence at bay. The #5 star will still be as inauspicious during period 9 (2024 – 2044).

The #5 star during period 9 Feng Shui
Auspicious or inauspicious – Inauspicious
Influence when activated – Issues related to illness, accidents, fatalities or bankruptcy
Weaken with –Metal cures.

The best way to weaken and negate the influence of #5 star is to introduce three potent cures in the same sector; this is a tried and tested method that we have been using for decades, and we have personally got great results from this, along with tens of thousands of others. For 2026, I would recommend placing a Six-rod hollow metal wind chime, salt water cure and Six Chinese I-Ching coins tied in a row in the south of your home to keep the influence of the annual #5 star settled.

Colour choices for the south in 2026 – white, silver, gold, copper, bronze, blue
Colours to avoid in the south in 2026 – Red, orange, purple, burgundy, pink, lilac, brown, terracotta, beige, yellow, green
Elements to use in the south in 2026 – Metal and water
Elements to avoid in the south in 2026 – Wood, fire and earth

We have Tai Sui located in the south in 2026 and will need to keep this area calm and quiet in order to avoid angering Tai Sui. Please make sure that you avoid any major ground-breaking and renovation work in the south, as this is a quick way to bring issues into your home or workplace due to activating the wrath of Tai Sui. A very powerful and traditional cure for the south this year is to place a Wen Zhe Tai Sui gold plated plaque in this sector to appease Tai Sui for the year. The Tai Sui plaque will also help to weaken the energy of the #5 star here.

While having two inauspicious influences in the same palace is frustrating if you have an important room here, it actually works out well this year, as we can cure two afflictions in the same way, leaving more palaces free from potential issues around the home.

If you have a main door in the south of your home or workplace this year, please avoid slamming the door, as this is one of the easiest ways to activate the wrath of Tai Sui and the annual #5. Frequent loud noises, such as banging doors and practising musical instruments regularly, will likely bring issues, so please try to avoid this as much as possible.

If you cannot avoid loud work in the south this year, try to do this in a month where we have an auspicious monthly star fly-in; the best months for this are in March, April, May, June, August, December and January (2027).

For 2026, the ruling Tai Sui general will be Wen Zhe, and he will be seated in the south (172.5 – 187.5) palace of every home and workplace, making the south a volatile area for the year and especially so if you have a bedroom, office or other active area here, as we also have the annual #5 star located here, causing a lot of issues when this area is activated by human activity.

Wen Zhe is the Tai Sui general for 2026 and falls into the south sector (172.5 – 187.5 degrees) as of the 4th of February 2026, and we must place a Wen Zhe Tai Sui gold plated plaque in the south sector of our home and workplace for the entire year until the 3rd of February 2027. When we disturb Tai Sui, we can manifest various problems, including disagreements, lawsuits, divorce, and other malicious influences.

The animals that will be significantly affected by Wen Zhe when activated this year are the Rat, Rabbit, Horse and Rooster as they are in conflict with Tai Sui in different ways and have a greater chance of disturbing Tai Sui this year. However, this is equally important for the rest of the Chinese zodiac animals, especially the Horse, as they are the Ben Ming Nian animal in 2026.

If your bedroom, office, living room, kitchen, or any other frequently used room is located in the south during 2026, the best option would be to keep this area as undisturbed as possible. While leaving the room unused may not be practical for most, try to keep noise levels low and place good quality metal cures here for the year to help reduce negative influences.

If possible, avoid any renovation or ground-breaking work in the south during 2026. This includes building extensions, knocking through internal walls, laying patios, replacing bathroom suites, or carrying out similar projects. As a general rule, when performing small tasks such as hammering a nail or drilling a hole, keep noise to a minimum — using a manual hand drill where possible is a safer option.

If you would rather not work with traditional cures in your home or workplace, you can place some good quality heavy metal items and decorations that are free of rust in the south this year. Good examples of heavy metal items are a saucepan, metal weight lifting plates, cookery measuring weights or any metal furniture that you already have. Good shapes associated with the metal element are anything round, such as a saucepan.

A pendulum chiming clock in the south of your home or workplace is a fantastic cure for the annual #5 star as the low noise level is not enough to activate the annual #5. In the old days, they would have had someone striking a gong quietly every 15 to 60 minutes.

Please avoid using candles and fire colours in the south during 2026, as this will enhance the #5 star and bring problems. If you have a fireplace in the south and cannot avoid using this, please make sure that you introduce strong metal cures here to help negate this influence. If you have a read or orange piece of large furniture, try to cover this with metal colours to set a good balance. Avoid using crystals here in 2026, as this will feed the #5 stars inherent earth energy.

recommendations and cures for the #5 visiting the south in 2026

• Avoid having the TV or radio at too high a volume in the south in 2026
• Keep the south of your home clear and tidy throughout the year.
• Place a Wen Zhe Tai Sui gold plated plaque to appease Tai Sui for the year
• Do not introduce any red or earth colours to the south this year. Silver, gold or white beddings and curtains are good colours to use.
• Place a salt water cure in the south of the building, along with six Chinese coins tied in a row with red ribbon and six hollow metal rod wind chime.
• The six coins in a row and salt cure are crucial cures to place in 2026; please do not forget them.
• Place a Brass Wu-Lou in the south, especially if your bedroom falls into this area.
• Avoid fire colours and candles in the south this year.
• Tsai Shen Yeh (God of wealth) in gold colour is very effective at reducing the bad earth and protecting your wealth.

Ch’ien 6 White – The star of Heaven Chien 6 White (Wu Qu) sits in the north palace in 2026.

The annual #6 star will fly into the north palace in 2026, and although we can enjoy auspicious energy from this area, we will also have the Three Killings and Sui Po located here for the year and will need to be very careful with this area to avoid activating the annual afflictions located here.

To get the most out of the north in 2026, I would recommend activating this area with strong metal cures and keep this sector calm and quiet. When the #6 star is activated correctly in 2026, star can bring substantial wealth and career luck, especially for those involved in politics, leadership roles, jewellers or anyone in a high-up position. It is important to remember that we can still benefit from the influence of the #6 star in 2026, even with the annual afflictions visiting the same palace.

In period 9, the #6 star will remain an auspicious star, and while there will be some websites claiming that this positive energy is fading and becoming inauspicious towards the end of period 9, this is still an auspicious star and we will be activating this throughout period 9 to make full use of the energy from this star.

The #6 star during period 9 Feng Shui
Auspicious or inauspicious – Auspicious
Influence when activated – Career and wealth luck
enhance with –Metal and earth cures

To enhance the annual #6 star in 2026, we can introduce metal and earth cures in the north to enhance the metal energy of the #6 star and produce very strong wealth and career luck for all occupants of the home and workplace, especially the middle son and males in general.

The #6 star can be activated by human activity in 2026, and while we have the Three Killings and Sui Po located here, we can still activate this by If you have a main entrance door in the north, this is very good and I would advise you to make use of this door when entering and exiting as human interaction can help enhance this area as long as you are mindful not to slam the door.

Colour choices for the north in 2026 – brown, terracotta, beige, yellow, white, silver, gold, copper, bronze
Colours to avoid in the north in 2026 – black, grey, blue, green, red, orange, purple, burgundy, pink, lilac
Elements to use in the north in 2026 – Metal and earth
Elements to avoid in the north in 2026 – Wood, fire and water

The north of your home should be kept calm and quiet this year, as we have Sui Po and the Three Killings located here for the year. I’ve added a list of what you can and cannot do to give you a better idea of how Sui Po can be disturbed.

Please avoid introducing any candles or fire colours into the north this year, as these will weaken the auspicious energy of the #6 star and may lead to issues related to the liver and legs. If you already have fire colours or a fireplace in the north, you can balance this energy by adding metal and earth colours such as brown, terracotta, beige, yellow, white, silver, gold, copper, or bronze.

If your bedroom is located in the north of your home, the annual #6 star can bring excessive yang energy to this area, which may result in restless or disturbed sleep. To help balance this, introduce water colours such as blue or black — a small throw at the end of the bed or a pillow in these shades will be sufficient to harmonise the energy.

recommendations and cures for the #6 visiting the north in 2026

• If your bedroom is located in the north this year, incorporating shades of blue or black into your furnishings or décor can help support your health. A blue painting (not depicting water) is also a good choice.
• Keep the north quiet during 2026 and avoid renovations here if possible.
• Place a Gongwanxingman Sheng Chi Cure in the north of your home or office to enhance and protect wealth and career opportunities.
• Crystals are highly effective in the north during 2026 and will help strengthen the positive energy of this area.
• Place Fuqi Baota Three-Tier Pagoda bell in the north during 2026 to attract prosperity and good fortune.
• Avoid using fire colours such as red, and refrain from lighting candles in the north unless the monthly stars indicate it is safe to do so, as this may cause health issues related to the lungs.

Tui 7 Red – The Lofty Wind of Tui (Po Jun) flies into the southwest in 2026

The #7 argumentative star will fly into the southwest of all homes and workplaces in 2026, and when activated, it can bring problems related to assault, deceit, violence, and robbery. The southwest will also be an unfavourable area for those who suffer from lung conditions such as COPD or asthma, as the #7 star can aggravate respiratory issues when its energy is disturbed.

In period 9, the #7 star will retain its inauspicious nature, and we will be treating this star the same way as in period 8 by using water and wood cures and colours to drain energy from the metal energy.

The #7 star during period 9 Feng Shui
Auspicious or inauspicious – Inauspicious
Influence when activated – burglary, deception, copyright theft, gossip and backstabbing
weaken with – Wood and water cures

Please take care with the southwest this year, especially if you have an important room here, as this area can strengthen chances of burglary, deception, copyright theft, gossip and backstabbing from others when it is left untreated or activated. To weaken the influence of the #7 star, it is best to introduce water and wood cures and colours here; please avoid flowing water, as this will introduce too much active Qi. Colours and elements that should be avoided in the southwest this year are earth, metal and fire cures and colours.

Colour choices for the southwest in 2026 – green, black, grey, blue
Colours to avoid in the southwest in 2026 – brown, terracotta, beige, yellow, white, silver, gold, copper, yellow, red, orange, burgundy, purple, pink, lilac
Elements to use in the southwest in 2026 – Wood and water
Elements to avoid in the southwest in 2026 – Metal, fire and earth

If you have a door that leads to the outside that is often used in the southwest this year, a good cure for this is to place a Ba Gua wealth protection mirror, although please only use this if there is clear space around the door outside; more than 2 metres is a good general rule. I would also avoid slamming the door as much as possible, as frequent banging noise is likely to activate the #7 star.

The #7 star is notorious for causing security issues, so please make sure that your locks, alarms, cameras, smoke alarms, etc, are all in good order around the home before the New Year. With Feng Shui, some of the simplest solutions are the best cure, and pre-empting potential issues will help a great deal.

If you use colours to activate or weaken stars, please avoid using metal, fire, and earth colours in the southwest this year. If these colours are already present and cannot be easily changed, balance the energy by introducing strong water colours such as blue, black, or grey in the southwest.

If you cannot avoid carrying out noisy or disruptive work in the southwest this year, try to schedule it for a month when an auspicious monthly star visits this sector — in 2026, these will occur during May, June, July, August, and October.

It is also wise to be cautious and avoid taking unnecessary risks if an important room, such as an office, bedroom, living room, or kitchen, is located in the southwest, as there may be deceitful individuals or hidden challenges working against you. This area also shows signs of misunderstandings, pressure, and potential business rivalries that could lead to financial or relationship losses.

Recommendations and cures for the #7 visiting the southwest in 2026:

• Place water and wood colours in the southwest during 2026 to help balance and control the energy of the annual #7 star.
• Having plants in the southwest will also help to drain and weaken the negative energy of this star.
• Try to introduce water colours, such as blue, into your décor. You can do this through cushions, rugs, bed covers, or doormats.
• Avoid using anything related to the fire element or the colour red, as this will only aggravate the #7 star.
• Do not light candles in the southwest this year, as this will strengthen its negative influence.
• Place a Xiaochoujiemen Rice cure in the southwest of your home or office for protection against the harmful effects of the #7 star.
• Make sure to install, service, or upgrade smoke alarms and security systems to safeguard your home or business.

Ken 8 White has flown into the east for 2026

In 2026, the annual #8 star will fly into the east palace, bringing fantastic wealth and Peach Blossom luck when correctly activated. This is a fantastic area this year to spend a lot of time in, as this star is a fantastic area for manifesting wishes and goals during the year of the Horse.

In period 9, the #8 star remains an auspicious star, and while this will be slightly less powerful with regards to wealth prospects, we will still be able to make good use of this star for existing wealth. The #8 star will take on the role of the Peach Blossom star during period 9, as the #4 star has become inauspicious, and this is the star we will be activating to enhance love life, relationships with others and friendship prospects.

The #8 star during period 9 Feng Shui
Auspicious or inauspicious – Auspicious
Influence when activated – wealth and strong Peach Blossom luck
Enhance with – Fire and earth cures

In period 9, the #8 star took on the role of our Peach Blossom star, which will be enhanced with the same earth and fire cures to enhance relationships, social prospects and friendships.

To enhance the fantastic qualities of the #8 star in the east this year, you can introduce earth and fire cures and colours into this area. The easiest way to introduce these colours is to use crystals and candles in the east of your home or business place to strengthen the influence of this area.

If your main entrance door is located in the east in 2026, this is very auspicious, as the activity of people coming and going will naturally activate the positive energy of this star. To make the most of this good fortune, keep the front door area clean, tidy, and free from clutter throughout the year, as this will encourage a smooth and continuous flow of fresh Qi into your home.

Great news if you have a bedroom, office, living room, kitchen or other room where you spend a lot of time in the east, as this will help strengthen the #8 star, bringing romance, relationship, social, career and wealth luck throughout 2026.

Although the annual #8 star can bring fantastic luck in 2026, please be aware that this can cause occupants to overwork, leading to health issues. It is important to have a good balance in lifestyle and work in 2026, so please make sure that the added workload doesn’t lead to stress, high blood pressure and kidney problems; if this is the case, it is important to take time out to unwind.

Colour choices for the east in 2026 – brown, terracotta, beige, yellow, red, orange, purple, pink, burgundy, lilac
Colours to avoid in the east in 2026 – green, white, silver, gold, copper, bronze, black, grey, blue
Elements to use in the east in 2026 – Earth and Fire
Elements to avoid in the east in 2026 – Metal, Water and Wood

To activate the annual #8 star, place crystals in the east during 2026, as they will help to strengthen its prosperous energy. This is also an excellent area to burn candles throughout the year to further enhance the auspicious influence, although it is important to check the monthly stars, as there will be certain months when it is best to avoid using candles in this area.

The east remains a powerful area for wealth, success, and romance in 2026 when properly activated, so it is an ideal place to store important financial documents such as pension files, investment records, or stock portfolios. Thr east, where the annual #9 star is located, is also an excellent position for storing paperwork, although the east will work well too.

If you use symbolic cures, place your three-legged toad here, facing your Sheng Chi direction to attract wealth, or display a pair of rose quartz crystal hearts to enhance love and romance.

Li 9 Purple You Bi Li 9 Purple is found in the southeast in 2026

The #9 annual star brings a beautiful energy into the southeast of your home or office in 2026, and I highly recommend making the most of this space throughout the year. Even if the southeast falls within a garage or kitchen, try to spend as much time here as possible — whether working, relaxing, exercising, or studying — to fully benefit from the prosperous and uplifting energy of this star.

I hope you all enjoyed reading and have a great month.
