Ba Zi And Feng Shui

Ba Zi can be literal translate as 'Eight Characters'. Basically, Ba Zi is derived from birth date: the year, month, day and time you were born. Each consists of a distinct pair of characters, hence making up the eight characters. From these eight characters, thousands of combination is possible. Ba Zi is derived from four pair of character, thus, sometime people refer to it as the Four Pillars or Si Zhu as well.

To the Chinese, a period of sixty year is known as one Jia Zi. In ancient China, from experience and by observing the nature, the Chinese discovered a phenomenon. A cycle of climatic or chronology event seem to repeat every sixty year. Meaning if year 2000 is a full of rainfall, the climate for 2060 would be similar. With this knowledge, prevention can be make. Especially, since the weather has an impact on the agriculture, economy and health.

The eight characters are make up of Yin and Yang variation of the Five Elements: Yang Wood, Yin Wood, Yang Fire, Yin Fire, Yang Earth, Yin Earth, Yang Metal, Yin Metal, Yang Water and Yin Water. By analyzing the combination of these eight characters, the personality, destiny of a person can be determine.

With a deeper understanding of ones own personality, you can open up potential and maximize growth. Have better emotional control and decision making. With the knowledge of upcoming influence forces, you are more ready to react and bring out the best performance and avoid unnecessary set back. Knowing your destiny does not mean "That is it. I am fate to be..." This knowledge should be view as a guidance, a map, a motivation booster.

Destiny can be change. But you have to put in a lot of hard work, a lot of perseverance, a lot of determination. There is no free lunch. For example, you have a Ba Zi which indicates that you will be rich. Each day passes by, you dream about what you are going to do when you are rich. You dream about how you are going to spend the money. BUT, you do nothing to make your dream come true. You say to yourself "I am fated to be rich one day... it does not matter if I work hard or not ..." Soon, one day, when your are too old and weak, you will find that you are not rich at all, instead, you are in debt, facing bankruptcy!

What does Ba Zi got to do with Feng Shui? You might ask? Think of Ba Zi as a map, with road sign and indicators to guide you along your life path. Feng Shui becomes the tool that would help you to overcome any obstacle and let you have a smooth journey. For example, if your Ba Zi indicates that you are a hot-tempered person and you find that your relationship with others is not too good. You are constantly angry and it seems like everybody come looking for a fight. The Feng Shui consultant would analysis your Ba Zi and might advice you to wear a sapphire ring, for example. Slowly you would find that there is a change to your life. You find that you have lesser argument with the people around you. You feel good. You can focus on your personal growth. You can do the things that truly resonate with your heart.

Creating Wealth the Feng Shui Way

Creating wealth and prosperity is something many of us spend a lifetime trying to achieve, but did you know you can actually incorporate some natural methods to encourage personal wealth?

It's true!

Feng shui is an ancient art. It strives for balance in all things connected to your life, about your life.

The secrets of this ancient philosophy are many, but here are the top 4 business tips for creating wealth:

1. Where's your front door?

Now, while I'm not advocating moving if your front door isn't currently in the proper location, it is a well-known "good chi/bad chi" piece of advice that north or south facing front doors invite good chi. This, of course, leaves the rest of us with east/west facing front doors to cope with this slight setback. There is a phrase, "money in/money out" associated with east/west facing doors. Something to keep in mind during your next house buying expedition or hunt for a rental.

2. Like water?

Positioning a fountain at the front door can be helpful, if it's not directly across from the door. Make sure you have positioned it to "flow into" your house. If you've installed something for drama, and it points outward, try turning it for the best positive effects.

3. Mirrors are great, but are yours hung correctly?

Many people use mirrors to enhance room dimensions and bring a sparkle into their homes. However, and again according to sources, make sure you never put a mirror directly opposite your front door. It may look nice, but "bad chi" can be a result. My interpretation is that when you open the door, and it reflects the outside, you're sort of pushing your good luck back out the door. Sounds like a definite detriment to creating wealth, and also sounds entirely plausible.

And... last but not least, the top creating wealth tip of the day is...

4. Where is your computer sitting?

Believe it or not, position your computer in the wrong spot in your home or office and you may be inviting "bad chi." This bad chi may be preventing you from creating and sustaining your wealth building business. The ideal spot for your computer? Check to see, or trying moving it to, a southeast corner of your home (or in the southeast corner of any room in your home). If yours isn't there, trying moving it and see what happens.

Life is built on all the little pieces. Creating wealth, and having a life of prosperity can be yours... if you pay attention to even the smallest details.
