Core Energies of 2025
- Elemental Mix: Yin Wood (growth, flexibility) fuels the Snake’s Fire (transformation, vitality), amplified by Period 9’s Fire. Balance with Water (to nourish Wood), Earth (to ground Fire), and Metal (to control excess).
- Focus: Renewal, strategy, and creativity.
- Key Afflictions: Tai Sui (Southeast), Sui Po (Northwest), San Sha (East), Five Yellow (Northeast).
- Lucky Stars: Star 9 (East), Star 8 (Southwest), Star 6 (South), Star 1 (Southeast).
10 Feng Shui Tips for 2025
- Declutter: Clear entryways and living spaces to shed old energy, mirroring the Snake’s renewal. Aim for nine items removed to kickstart fresh Chi.
- East (Star 9 – Prosperity): Add plants (e.g., bamboo) and a small water feature for growth. Keep it quiet due to San Sha overlap—use a metal vase to suppress negativity.
- Northeast (Five Yellow – Misfortune): Place a six-rod metal wind chime or brass object to weaken this Earth star. Avoid red decor or noise.
- Southeast (Tai Sui & Star 1 – Career): No renovations; respect the Grand Duke. Add wooden decor or a Lapis Lazuli stone for subtle career boosts.
- Southwest (Star 8 – Wealth): Activate with a ceramic bowl of coins or a metal wind chime to draw financial luck.
- Northwest (Sui Po): Keep calm and uncluttered. A blue rug (Water) softens tension.
- South (Star 6 – Authority): Light a candle or place a quartz crystal to enhance leadership and recognition.
- Balance Elements: Pair Wood (plants) and Water (fountain) in the North or East to nourish Yi, and Earth tones (beige) in the Center to stabilize Fire.
- Protect Health: Hang a Wu Lou in the Northeast or bedroom to counter Five Yellow’s illness risk.
- Snake Symbol: Place a wooden Snake figurine in the East or Southwest to honor the year and attract luck.
Room-by-Room Quick Guide
- Living Room: Plants in East, metal in Northeast, earthy tones in Southwest.
- Bedroom: Avoid Southeast headboard (Tai Sui); use pastel blues or greens for calm.
- Office: Desk facing South (Star 6) or Southeast (Star 1, back to Tai Sui for support), with a citrine stone.
- Entrance: Clear, with a water feature in North (if unafflicted) to welcome opportunity.
Personal Adjustments
- Zodiac Clashes: Snake, Pig, Tiger, Monkey (Tai Sui conflicts) should carry protective charms (e.g., Tiger’s Eye) and avoid Southeast renovations.
- Intentions:
- Wealth: Focus on Southwest and East.
- Health: Northeast suppression and Wu Lou.
- Love: Rose Quartz in Southwest or bedroom.
Monthly Maintenance
- Check Afflictions: Monthly Flying Stars shift (e.g., Five Yellow moves each month—track it via a Feng Shui almanac).
- Refresh: Cleanse decor (e.g., with water or sunlight) around March 20 (spring equinox) to keep energy vibrant.
