Every year in Feng Shui, the annual flying Stars change location around February 4, according to the Chinese solar calendar. Throughout the 12 months of the year of the Metal Rat Geng Zi 庚子 2020, there will be 4 sectors within your home or work place that will be affected by unfavorable energies and others that will be occupied by more positive stars. You must first understand the effects of negative stars and know how to submit them using elementary cures. Then, be interested in the favorable stars and how to activate them.
And a little extra remark: do not put elementary cures in a negative area of your home will not pose any problems if you can avoid using it! So simply remember to spend more time in the so-called favorable areas and to avoid as much as possible the areas occupied by unfavorable stars. As we often repeat, for an energy to have an effect on you you first have to be in contact with it. This is valid for both favorable and unfavourable energies.
Star 6 in the Southeast
The Celestial Star
Synonymous with power, authority, status but also success with a lot of hard work and perseverance. It also brings sudden changes, so you can use the Southeast if you need these changes and especially professional ones. Your bedroom should not be in this area this year because you might feel alone. The Dragons and Snakes as well as the Gua 4 people will be mainly under its influence.
Star 2 in the South
The Illness Star
Synonymous with health problems (and especially for elderly women and pregnant women), it can also bring money losses related to real estate investments. In 2020, it resides in the South and is strengthened by the sector! Elderly people, or those who already have health problems should at most avoid residing in this sector, If your bedroom is in the South and you can not change, it is advisable to place a salt water cure or metallic objects to counter the harmful effects of this star. Also be sure to remove any Fire element from this area. Persons born under the sign of the Horse as well as Gua 9 people will be under its adverse influence.
Star 4 in the Southwest
The Academic and Relationship Star
It promotes learning, academic, and literary successes, as well as romance and romantic relationships. If you have things to learn this year or if you have children at school, it’s the Southwest that will be needed to support learning and achieve good results. People born under the sign of the Goat or Monkey as well as Gua 2 people will be under its beneficial influence.
Star 5 in the East
The Star of Bad Luck
As the name suggests, it brings bad news, bad luck, money losses, health problems and other disasters. The 5 yellow star elects residence in the East in 2020 making this sector the worst of your home. Avoid using or spending too much time here, if possible, avoid this area completely. Place Metal or a salt water cure in the East and remove any Fire element! Do not undertake major renovations in this area and avoid moving large furniture. This year the people born under the sign of the Rabbit and Gua 3 people will have the most to suffer from its harmful influence.
Star 7 in the Center
The Star of Violence
Carrying volatile emotions, it causes violence, disputes, thefts but also the risk of fires and injuries. If you are in a relationship, avoid using the Center at the risk of conflict. At work it can bring bad competition and rivals. Remove any Earth and Metal element from the center of your home and place a Yin Water cure.
Star 9 in the West
The Multiplicative Star
It brings good news, promotion and happy events, it also represents fame, popularity and beauty. It encourages new departures and is synonymous with prosperity. If you want to get into something new or want to boost your finances in the long run, you will need to spend time in the west in 2020. It will particularly affect people born under the sign of the Rooster as well as the Gua 7 people.
Star 1 in the Northeast
The Heavenly Gift Star
Synonymous with nobility, status and good reputation, it also represents wisdom, intelligence, thoughts, emotions. The energies of this star are excellent in terms of recognition, and prosperity. If your front door is in the Northeast sector of your home you can expect good things for this year. If at work your location is in the Northeast, your colleagues and supervisors will recognize the value of your work. If you are from Gua 8 or born an Ox or Tiger year, you will particularly benefit from the effects of this star.
Star 3 in the North
The Quarrelsome Star
It brings lawsuits, slander, arguments, bad luck and therefore money losses related to these problems. It takes up residence in the North this year and is also reinforced by the sector in which it resides. Remove any Water element from this area and use the Fire element to correct the adverse effects of this star. Do not spend time in this area if you have health problems related to the liver or limbs. The people born under the sign of the Rat and the people of Gua 1 will be under its harmful influence this year.
Star 8 in the Northwest
The Star of Prosperity
Synonymous with wealth, fame and happiness, results of your efforts and your work. The Northwest is the area to use if you want progress in your work, better returns on your investments or if you want to improve your reputation. People born under the sign of the Dog, and the Pig and people of Gua 6 will benefit from its benefits.

Hi, iìll move to another town very soon cause i’m going to live in another town next year (just for one year). I’m still looking for the right apartament and i’m wondering which front door direction would be the best for me. I’m a gua 1 so my best direction are N, S, SE and E but they are going to be influenced by negative flying stars in 2020 so my dilemma is: is it beter to search for a main entrance facing the most auspicious directions like for example NW or SW, or should I give priority to the directions of my GUA number even if i would need to use some remedies to reduce the negative impact? Thanks for replying me
Hello Anna,
sorry for the delay, I was quite busy preparing a lot of stuff for next year 🙂 If it’s just for a short period of time I won’t bother about facing directions. I would work with my best personal directions according to my Gua inside the home. But if you want to choose a good home for you for a year, I would check if the main door is located in the Southeast, or facing Southeast which is a good sector next year and also a good direction for you. I hope this give you your answer ?
Have a great month of the Fire Rat !
