Bazi Fengshui Series: What is Period 9?

In Bazi Fengshui, timing is one major important factor.


For every 20 years, there is a major energy change in the Universe. Each 20 years constitute a period and there are a total of 9 periods. The period change is due to the planetary movements and interactions between the Sun and the stars and every transition from one period to another will bring about prominent energetic changes in the world which can show up in changes of various aspects of life such as industry and business trends, culture, health, spirituality. Knowledge of such changes can then prepare us for the necessary changes in mindset, directions and actions to take which can then assist us to ride on the bandwagon of Period 9 energy instead of against it. Fengshui analysis and audits of housing and buildings with consideration of Period 9 energy will enhance the support of the people through the factor of earth.


Period 9 starts from 2024 and will last for 20 years till 2044. However the changes will have usually started to kick in a few years before the actual transition.


After 4 February 2024 for the next 20 years, Period 9 is under the influence of Li Trigram (离卦). Li Trigram is represented by South and Fire element which is related to fame and recognition.


Mindset Changes in Period 9


Period 9 is an awakening call & reshuffling of new priorities in life. There will be a shift in mindset from profit and wealth to purpose and from controlling to empowering and motivation.

In Period 8 which is represented by Ken Trigram and influenced by the Earth element, the general attitude of people is all about stability, working hard and be down-to-earth, working and growing with a good company, taking time to build trust and long-term relationship.


With the transition to Period 9 and just like the characteristics of fire, security and stability will be challenged just like how the fire flickers. Therefore career growth should be individually managed with continuous learning and experimentation and individual resilience should be built financially and mentally rather than being too over dependent on others. Hence health and well being is given more priority as that is the basis for every other form of development.


Period 9 is also an awakening call for morality, spirituality, societal consciousness, environment and culture as we reshuffle the priorities in life for higher level consciousness and inspirations rather than earthly pursuits such as money and possessions.  

 

Health in Period 9


Li Trigram is represented by fire element which has relations to heart, small intestine, eyes, tongue.

Heart is the organ that governs circulation, emotions and consciousness. In some traditions, Heart is related to the mind. Therefore during Period 9, mental and emotional health should be given its due attention just as you will be taking care of the physical Heart organ.

Small intestine is all about digestion and absorption of food, therefore it is important to not rush in your meals to allow enough time for absorption to fully take place.


Tongue has the ability to taste and for speech. Developing communication skills is important during this period.


Eyes are related to seeing and observing and also are the windows to the soul. So it is important to not to overuse them with electronics glare and spend more time looking at nature to nourish them.


Take extra precautions to ensure that all the vulnerable organs mentioned above are well taken care of during Period 9 as they may be more susceptible to illnesses and diseases.


House and Buildings in Period 9


As we enter the new period, houses and buildings that were built in Period 7 (between 4th Feb 1984 to 4th Feb 2004) or Period 8 (between 5th Feb 2004 to 4th Feb 2024)  will lose its chi energy and strength by the time we reach Period 9. Therefore Fengshui remedies and audits are necessary to rejuvenate the houses and buildings so that you are well supported by the earth factor.


If you intend to buy a house, it is advisable to look for one that is tall and located in the South direction. It will be a bonus if it is overlooking “water” in the North direction. 


Tall buildings are considered Mountains in Fengshui and location in South will signify health and benefactors. Overlooking Water in North signifies wealth can be garnered.


Conclusion


This article is written in December 2022 and transition to Period 9 is already taking place. What is not serving and unnecessary will be shed, paving way for new changes, growths, developments, relationships on a personal and also universal level.



It is important that preparations for changes should be done now instead of taking them head on when the full-blown transformation comes.
