Happy New Year 2016 - what's coming up

Blessing for a beautiful start to the new year for everyone, everywhere. An intention for the new year need not be about you at all...maybe take the pressure off yourself (your Self) and make 2016 a year where you focus on what you can do for other people, places and spaces. Good idea?

The ability to be flexible like this can help you achieve more for yourself in the long run. Giving always means the natural balance is at work, and so you shall receive in some way, always, from giving of your time, energy, money or self. This is SO supported this coming year.

Here's something from the introduction to the Annual Influences Guide 2016 that might explain a little...

It is with great pleasure that I again introduce you to the Ruling Annual Energy Influence for the coming year. 2016 sees Star 2 light up the Centre Palace of our homes, dwellings and workplaces. It is the Mother Influence, related to Earth, and the Trigram ‘Xun’, sometimes related to weakness, it is the  triple Yin line that identifies ultimate flexibility, but also the potential for instability.

The power to create security, peace and prosperity is in your hands

So Star 2, 'Xun', in the Southwest sector, is a very receptive energy. It can lead to a lot of daydreaming (my favourite past-time I must say) and is on the opposite side of the Bagua to the sector of the NE, which is the 'Knowledge & Self Cultivation' / 'Contemplation' life aspect. I love this approach to looking at the Bagua and use it whenever I am performing an assessment of charts for Annual Influences or even buildings. Star 2 will have us reviewing our Connections in all contexts from our personal relationships to our connection with Earth, Heaven and ourselves. 'On the flipside', the Contemplation sector in the NE is hosting the Star 5 of Pure Potential. This energy often gets a very bad wrap, because it often deserves it really, ...but in context everything has it's Yin and Yang expression.

What do I see when I observe the Change Star 5 entering the NE? Well, two things actually. 

Firstly, the NE is the natural home of Star 8, so generally, Star 5 energy has to behave quite well in conjunction with this benevolent influence. The natural energy of the NE is strong and stable, still, reliable...so it is going to be very much a balancing, slowing energy for the Annual Influence. However, the Period Star 2 has been in residence in the NE since 2004, and is well and truly ensconced, so it will be ready to link with this new Annual Star 2. If you've studied any Flying Stars Feng Shui then you'll know the alarm bells that go off when we see a 2,5 combination, but take a breath, a deep one, and relax. Both 2 and 5 in conjunction with an 8 will theoretically 'behave'. However, I'm still suggesting we input a Wealth Bringer Bowl in the NE this year as a precaution...

Secondly, the sector of the NE is all about our ability to stop and review. To observe. To take the mental note, the emotional truth and the intangible sixth sense message and interpret them. If we have been having difficulty in processing our innate wisdom, then this year offers us an opportunity to tap into Star 5 and change this. Star 2 has been offering us the connections we need in order to gain a better hold of how we nurture our Self and in what way we cultivate our self-improvement strategies for over 10 years now. It has been an energy in society that has built steadily over the last decade to the point now where 'self-improvement retreat' is as natural as saying 'a weekend away'.

For more feng shui insights using the Flying Stars theory I invite you to purchase the Annual Influences Guide 2016 or, take a look at one for free from the download on the website. They are always full of information that can assist you in navigating the changing energy layers of the year ahead, and help you plan for success and support. Written in plain speaking language with many explanations, you will also find a glossary of elemental balancing ideas at the back of the guide to help you tweak your spaces for maximum harmony. With Kuan Yin, a representation of the feminine Divine, on the cover this year radiating the bright glory of pure nurturing, support and protection.

May your 2016 be filled with abundance, light and beauty!

Many Blessings

Nette
