According to 三元风水 where Xuan Kong Flying Stars had originated from, energy patterns follow a fixed “schedule” of 3 Ages and 9 Periods - 三元九运.
This golden schedule runs for 180 years and the period will change every 20 years. Currently we are in Period of 8, which will last from 2004 - 2023.
In Period of 8, symbolically it represents youthful energy, the element Earth, mountain (艮卦）and energy of 8 is prosperous in the NorthEast direction.
In real life number 8 is regarded as universally lucky for the chinese, we also see many young (youthful) leaders raising to prominence e.g. Google’s Larry Page and Facebook’s Mark Zuckerberg, successfully building empires which in the past will had taken at least a few decades of hard work.
Fact: Currently today, the network of Mark Zuckerburg is a billion (USD) more than Hong Kong Tycoon Li Ka Shing. Mark is certainly much youthful compared to Mr Li.
Earth also represents properties and high tech industries.
Like medicine, beneficial properties often comes with side effects. Unfortunately also, earth-based calamities will take centre stage in Period of 8.
Therefore from perspective of Xuan Kong Flying Stars, masters will adjust Residential Feng Shui to take advantage of the period 8 energy where ever possible, depending on the configuration of residence.
Although landforms might remain the same but good Feng Shui energies surrounding the spot do not last forever ... at least according to compass school of thought.
So yes, Feng Shui does have an expiry date. Do take note of that.
Energy patterns will change its path when transiting into a new period in 2024. Locations enjoying current good feng shui will shift to another facet then, in another period.
However in many cases, it does not warrant big changes e.g. demolishing the house for rebuilt. In most cases, minor changes only are sufficient to exposure the habitants to good area. E.g. opening a door in prosperous direction.
Xuan Kong Flying Stars is one of the most commonly practiced in the market today.
It is slightly more complicated than much-loved 8 mansions Feng Shui, takes effect faster and seemingly a lot of more accurate as it looks at of 24 mountains, each mountain occupying 15 degrees versus of big directions of East and West Groups only.
From 2024 - 2043, we will progress into the age of 9, where the prosperous energy move to the Fire element, which is celebratory in nature, the 离卦 and in the South direction.
Till then, Period of 8 is the King.
