Flying Stars Forecast for June




Some truly lovely energy in the Centre Palace this month with the combination called ‘Young Romance’ taking up residence. This combination of influences sees the Trigram for Youngest Daughter, Star 7, meeting the Trigram for Youngest Son, Star 8. These two energies bring together Joy and Stillness. Nice hey…

The good stuff continues to flow on through the West, and NW sectors and a potentially helpful situation in the NE...but it is a bit of a month to beware of potential conflict and brush up on those diplomacy skills,...and deep breathing.

Lets get the potential irritations out of our way first, and that will leave some lovely things to talk about at the end of the forecast ;)

East has the combination that can leave people in Authority positions feeling disillusioned, resentful or just bring one massive ‘headache’ due to too much going on. The 5 Star links up with the Star 6 related to the Head and Lungs, so it is also a situation where illness can creep in for the Authority personalities in a family situation. Hyperventilation and Headaches can be a result of an active Star 5,6 combo, but the remedy is as easy as supporting the Star 6 with a good dose of Metal energy. Use White, Gold, Silver, or iridescent colours (like a dragonfly’s wings) in beautiful curved or globular shapes.

Southeast and the Growth and Wealth sector is potentially a source of tension and fighting. Don’t continue contentious conversations regarding money during June. Allow it to flow away and dissipate. Budgets and restraint are required. Metal 6 with Metal 7 means you’ll need to drain the Metal energy away with Water element. Use Blacks, Dark Blues in wavy and irregular shapes. Throw rugs and curtains are easy ways of imbuing this energy.

In the South Reputation sector there is the potential for arguments and contention. 2, 3 is known as The Fighting Bull Sha (Sha meaning unfavourable, low level energy). Remedy using Metal energy again, and avoid using this area of the building if you can. If it is a main door entry you may need to ‘up the dosage of remedy’ by installing a few different Metal agents. The Salt Water Cure is helpful for Star 2 energy if it is needed.

There is potential conflict in the North Career sector relating to two energies that are very similar fighting over resources. Learn to identify petty behanviour and call upon your Higher Self to gain a mature approach to any issues arising concerning your Career or Life Purpose aspects. Acting in a way that will make you pride yourself on your behaviour when you look back on it, is a excellent way of setting up a fantastic Resonant Effect in this aspect of your Life. Enhance this energy combination with Pale Fire colour and soft shapes like the cherry blossom.

The Relationships sector is going through a phase of change all this year, but during June it is visited by the Passions Star 4. This energy assists with matters of Romance and Academia, promoting focus on what your true loves are. Usually the way to enhance this Star 4 is by using Pale Fire energy, however with the Star 5 in residence, the use of any Fire in the SW this year is not advisable. So instead of the usual ‘cherry blossom’ enhancer for Star 4, use apple blossom. You will still get that beautiful soft and romantic energy, but without the Fire colour. For academic pursuits simply use some essential oils like Peppermint, Spearmint, Basil, Rosemary or Fennel to help you stay focused and improve concentration.

The West has a great combination of inspirational influences with Star 9’s Vivacity & Vigour mixing it up in the Creative sector with Star 1’s Wisdom & Ideas. (Both Angel numbers, Star 1 is the Angel of Sheng Chi, and Star 9 the Angel of Vivacity) Good stuff for anyone with a career that requires a little imaginative thinking. Not just for artists, this vibe can bring in the kind of ‘brainwaves’ that make you stand out! Tweak it with Fire and Water agents, as well as some Wood and Metal to get a beautiful flow of energy going.

The NW is just glowing with potential opportunity this month having the Wealth Star 8 visit the Future Wealth Star 9 in the Progression sector! Be on the lookout to acknowledge help from a mentor, or from a source that you have been looking to for assistance. This energy responds well to Angel representations (both Star 8 and Star 9 are Angel numbers again), or you can use a beautiful Affirmation written down and placed in a prominent place in this area, to invite in more help for your endeavours. Burning sacred oils like Frankincense, Benzoin, Myrrh, Sage, Hyssop, Spikenard, Cedarwood, etc., will also create that Divine frequency allowing more flow between the ethereal realm and your reality.

The NE Contemplation sector receives the wise Star 1 this June. While this is a wonderful energy to reside in the NE to assist with contemplative times and meditations, it will not be assisted by the combination of Star 2 with it. Star 2 needs to be drained using Metal energy, or enhanced with the use of medicinal plants in this area like Tulsi Rama, Rubber Plant, Spider Fern, Boston Fern, or the Madonna (Arum) Lily.

Home Spa Salt Rub


Its time to love you.
Winter in Australia is a time of calm and peace, where the extreme Yang nature of our climate here is subdued.
It’s a time when our energy slows down, moves inwards, and in reflection, our environment has the plants looking darker shades of green; and the colours seem to be able to show off without the blinding heat of the Summer months.

There seems to be a contrasting vibrancy to the environment. Its quiet energetically, but visually its louder!
Home Spa Days can be a source of pure and necessary self indulgence, and you can often do a great job at a very low price, yet still get the maximum benefits of using holistic and natural remedies to soothe, nurture and uplift YOU.

There is just way too much ‘out there’ that demands our attention, our submission and our connections, and it rarely gives back for the amount it takes out of us. Acknowledging the need for replenishment without Guilt is a big step towards providing yourself with the support for good health.
Salt scrubs made at home are a fantastically simple and effective way of sloughing off the day, or the week, and renewing your physical, emotional and energetic body. A simple scrub using Celtic Sea Salt or Himalayan Salt will provide you with an instant ‘cleanse and clearing’ . Mixing that with a herb like Tulsi Rama, Parsley, Lavender or Chamomile (depending on what you need) is as easy as squishing it all up in a mortar and pestle (or a food processor if you want to) and applying it to wet skin with brisk rubbing motions. It sloughs off dead skin cells, removes negative energy, improves positive ions (good for health) and generally makes you feel ‘clear’.

The Feng Shui of your body is so important to your overall Feng Shui, as it is equivalent to one third of the influence on your Life Experience. Take notice of when you are feeling ‘sapped’, and restore yourself asap! Reinstate that good quality one third of energy so that it resonates into your whole life! J

Home Spa Salt Rub
60g to 80g of Celtic Sea Salt or Himalayan Salt (these contain massive amounts of trace elements and minerals essential for good health)
10 to 15 drops of your favourite soothing or calming essential oil, or a handful of your favourite healing herbs
Whizzed in a spice grinder, or ground together in a mortar and pestle till the granules are fine
Use a small teaspoon of the mixture for each major body area
Rub briskly but gently over wet skin until dissolved. Rinse off with warm water. Pat skin dry with a soft cloth.

Establishing a 'Bright Hall'


There are a few fantastic Feng Shui ‘rules’ out there that can be applied regardless of your situation right now. Establishing a Bright Hall is one of them. Contrary to the title, a Bright Hall doesn’t just mean the entrance hallway of your home. It actually refers to the whole of the Mouth of Chi...the entrance to your home or building inside and outside. This entrance is the invitation you send out to the world, and it needs to reflect the kind of energy you wish to attract. In Holistic Feng Shui this is called establishing a Resonance Effect.

A Bright Hall is typified by a few general things:

1. Natural light easily enters and moves through this area.

2. The flow of energy is unobstructed by Sha or Si energy. (low level or ‘bad’ energy)

3. It provides a feeling of welcome and well-being.

The reasons for a Bright Hall are twofold. It will encourage high quality energy towards your home, and once there, will encourage it to move in through the Mouth of Chi and nourish the building, which in turn provides high quality energy for the occupants to benefit from.

Mirrors in the Bright Hall inside work to ‘bounce energy’ around, and while functionally, they provide a place where you can check your appearance before leaving the house, they can also be used to reflect a pleasing view in the interior of the house. The use of mirrors to reflect ‘bad’ Qi out of the house is a bit of a misconception. If there is something so bad outside your front door that you don’t want it there, then a mirror ain’t really going to shift it. (as an ‘energetic stop-gap’, yes, it may help you feel that you are at least doing something) You may need to consider blocking the unfavourable thing or if possible, removing it from the Bright Hall / Mouth of Chi area altogether!

Long, straight hallways or pathways in the Bright Hall area need to be softened or gently curved so that Chi meanders from various focal points, slowing down its travel to the house and through the front door. Simply by using such energetic remedies like grouping frames on a wall, and implementing structures, like the bench-seat shown here; can slow down the flow of energy, and provide the sense of welcome and calm.

And it does not matter if your home is humble, comfortable, or modern and chic, if your Bright Hall isn’t bright, well, then the energy of your building and your own experiences suffer as a result.

The things to remember are:

· De-clutter & soften edges

· ‘Curve’ your entry energy

· Make it light

· Keep it clean & simple

· Love it!

The Feng Shui of your home is mostly made up of how you feel about it, and that resonates from how you perceive it looks. If you can follow a few simple rules regarding the Bright Hall, you’ll reap the rewards of high quality chi.
