Introducing myself, I am a four pillar/bazi hobbist, chinese, from Singapore in my mid 30s.
Started the hobby for almost 2 years now, bc i am amaze how accuracy of the bazi can tell a person's character and life/fortune.
Havin research on internet for English software that plots 4P, only found 4P with most comprehensive coverage.
Only found 1 small thing lacking; deity not shown for each of the pillar; e.g. for a Yin Wood Day master, if the day pillar (heavenly stem) is Yang Wood, then the deit…

Veronica is her name and she is Xin day master with drastic on the hour and gracious output on the month. The year un-becoming power with a very strong root. She has Chen, Si, Mao and Wei in the branches. I have gracious output on the hour and proper power with no root until recently on the year. The point I am trying to make is "V" as I call her, is most interesting. She is so animated! Her output is drastic. She does attack her husband. Joseph Yu said, "In the old days, her chart would be disc…

Hello Everybody,
On May 5th, at 2:45pm CST (DST), I will be opening the website Hellenistic-Astrology.com. Although this may sound like a site about western astrology, it is not entirely. I hope that the site will draw together both Eastern astrologers (which includes feng shui practitioners) and Western astrologers, to retrace the origin of all astrologies. There are a lot of little breadcrumbs between the ancient Hellenistic tradition (which is radically different than the western astrology t…

A friend send me this link, and it is a nice program so I pass it on for those who are interested in tarot.
www.orphalese.net
One of the decks has 64 I Ching cards.
It is also possible to create own card decks, so one could experiment with card decks that use the 12 Branches, 10 Stems, 28 lunar mansions, etcetera...
Have fun.
Danny

What is this thing, the gap? Threw my coins and the Yi gave moi. I shall quote the author "Carol K. Anthony" from her book, "A guide to the I Ching."
# 56 Lu- The Wanderer.
(We are uneasy about trusting the unknown.)
"In the inner universe we are ever wanderers and strangers. Although we can observe and catalog the cause and events in the outer world, that which governs their coming and going-The great Tao-is unknowable. Even though we have worked hard to serve the good, we cannot assume that ou…

Are we trying to step into the gap? I am referring to the term used to desribe that space between the upper and lower bound of our destiny. It is all about timing, they say. Are we, with this meta-physics, trying to step into the gap and alter the time/space matrix of our future? For better or for worse. How we attempt to manage our expectations. This gap. The world of intention. Giant cosmic soup. I shall consult the I-Ching and see what it has to say about this idea of the gap. "Step into the…

What's a girl to do? I want to leave Planet Clifton at times but then I look at Mark and I am so infatuated with him. I just love that stage 5 Xin. Maybe one day I will get over it. Shackled by the chains desire. I could be without him but the flow to be with him is so strong. I wanted him to guide the abundant waters but now I feel hemmed in. Funny how that works. You get what you want then you don't want it anymore. I laugh inside. I will work on what I can control and let go of what I cannot.…

I read my last blog and I start to defend myself from a Western astrology point of view. The planet Pluto has moved into the constellation of Capricorn and is currently @ one degree. Do you have any idea what this means? Apocolyptic might come close. During the time of my birth the planets Venus and Mars were in conjunction in the constellation of Capricorn @ 27 degrees. Plus, Saturn was close by @ 15 degrees Capricorn. Pluto who is also called Hades is about to sweep through and transform. Ouch…

Yesterday, my flight was cancelled to Toronto. I stepped off the shuttle at the airport and was told American had downed all jets for maintenance issues. I am sure you have heard about the debaucle in the news. I am back in Clifton with Ebee-sneezer. (He has the worst allergies). It is terrible as I was suppose to be sharing a room and taxi with Betinna from Germany. Poor girl, had to wait at the airport for three hours until she finally left. I called her as soon as I found out but could not le…

If you only knew what it is like for me. I read the posts on the Yahoo/four-pillars list and my head drops down and I ache for complete comprehension. To be as astute in Chinese four-pillars as some of my colleagues. I am in Clifton, Arizona, otherwise know as BFE. Breathtaking is an accurate adjective. The mountains, hills and cliffs create an amphitheater for the light to cascade shadows off of the rivers and trees. The lighting in the desert is so magical. Mark will take me to caves and there…

With great intrepidation I seek to find the source of the 8ws energy. The reason I am so tentative in my opinion is the more I think I know the less I understand. For a house period 6 with 73 degrees facing I find the 8ws to be in the north. The room luckily has a window, albeit it could be bigger. The living room with a fire-place and entertainment systems. I have my laptop set up and I practice ashtanga yoga here. I used to do the yoga in the kitchen/dining room area. This is the west part of…

Hello, I believe I might have found out the true period of the house. In my last post, I originally thought the house was period 1 because Mr. Chandler told me the house was 133 years old! Granny get your gun! Funny, how you think you know what is going on when in reality you are wrong. "Will the real period of this house please stand up!" IMHO the house is period 6 because the paneling on the inside of the house is very 60's. I have not had a chance to go down to city hall but last nite I had a…

O.k. Today, I took the measurements of the house specifically. Before, I conjectured the facing to be in the direction of the cars coming up the road because they bring the chi. Later, I decided I was wrong in my assessment. It is important to look at the structure of the building and then from that vantage point you assume the facing. I took the reading along the line of the house that receives the most chi from the sun which my luopan said was 73 degrees east. With my guess of the house being…

Don't you just love it. The forms, it's all about the forms. Imagine being surrounded by cliffs less than one hundred yards away except the front is a park and river then a big mountain. I really like Clifton and the house is very pleasant but honestly where is the facing? When I first came here I thought it was 132 degrees and the house was period 1. So I set up the cures. The usual calabash and the chiming clock. Two months later, upon closer inspection I realize that where one enters the hous…

I am now in living in Clifton, Arizona, an old mining town. Morenci, the next town over is owned by Freeport MacMoran mining company. They are mining copper. Living in south-eastern Arizona has been an experience of a life time because rather than experiencing the flow of the Chinese five elements through pure rhetoric I am able to see what the earth does with time. Creating metals or even rocks such as banded agate. The filtration systems through terra firma are mind boggling. I wish to underst…

Dolphin guides whales to safety
By David Brooks AFP - Wednesday, March 12 07:03 am WELLINGTON (AFP) -
A dolphin guided two stranded whales to safety after human attempts
to keep the animals off a New Zealand beach failed, a conservation
official said Wednesday.
"I've never heard of anything like this before, it was amazing,"
Conservation Department officer Malcolm Smith said.
The actions of the dolphin, well known locally for playing with
swimmers at Mahia beach on the east coast of the North…

More people are posting pictures, which is very nice to see.
I have found it is possible to set up separate "Albums" in the photos section, so I have now done so in order to keep the photos a bit more organized.
Everybody is welcome to create more different albums, for example if you post photos about very specific topic.
This makes much easier for the viewers.
As example I have added a picture walk with photos I have taken in a rare Bulgarian town last year.
You can find it via "Photos" tab, t…

Hi Friends,
Accepting Danny's invitation, I've uploaded three songs I love, and believe they can contribute to make this network's qi even better. The songs are from a client of mine, who hired me to evaluate his new house before buying it, and to guide him through a big renovation. I hope to have enough time to describe the whole experience to you soon, as it was a nice experience. The remodeling isn't finished yet...

Thank you, Herman for your best wishes; my journey will never end, and I know that this life’s journey was not the first one in which I spent my life trying to unravel the mysteries of the Universe, and of the ancients.
Danny, the Hellenistic era astrologers all referred back to King Nechepso, who ruled Egypt around 600B.C., and Petosiris, an Egyptian priest of the 4th century B.C. Scholars even believe that most references made to "The Ancients"; "The King"; or "The Great, Wise, and/or Sage,"…

I have a background in Hellenistic astrology. Not an extensive one, no deep knowledge, but I’m involved. I feel fortunate, because my introduction to astrology, was to the Hellenistic system, because it is the original system of western astrology, and it has a firm foundation of mathematics and logic. It’s possible that I am the first person to be introduced to western astrology this way, as most learn modern first. Although the system has only been being researched since the early 1990s, much p…

Earth stars come in the front and rear doors and meet in the living room in this house...it's indeed very earthy. Since moving in we've become more and more like a couple of pigs wallowing in their happy little mudhole. It's getting disgusting.
But, at least my husband has fine-tuned his resume and has a couple of prospects. Retirement is not good for him...but he loves it. I'm thinking if he's home much longer I'm joining the Peace Corps...or the French Foreign Leigon. One of us has to leave th…

Hello,
This blog is a story about the struggles and triumphs within the context of remodeling a 1940's home that was once a church. The house is located in Laguna Beach, California on the North side of town on Coast Highway.
Marinko, my late husband gave me the home six years ago. The house was a church in the 60's and was in a complete state of disrepair. I have spent much time and money to improve the house. Classical feng shui told me the house was in a condition that was equivalent to a co…

Thanks Danny! My blog on the real estate network is working out great. I agree...this is the way to go. We as Feng Shui professionals have a lot to say. As we blog on we will learn more about putting in links, pictures, and ways to bring more traffic to our home pages. It's all connected, and we're making a bump in the blogosphere now...by this time next year we'll be experts.
