What does each star, 1 to 9, mean? ↓

Flying Star is a traditional practice. Use it as a prompt for thoughtful choices about how you arrange and use your space, not as a guarantee of outcomes.

Each star's nature (星性)

Every sector of your chart carries several of these nine numbers. These cards describe each star's own nature, which is how the year's visiting star is read. Your property's natal stars and the Period star are also read by timing: the ★ 旺 and ★ 生气 badges on your chart mark the ones in season this period, and each card's last line gives its timeliness now. What a star does still depends on the sector it sits in and the stars beside it, so treat these as a starting point, not a verdict.

What is Flying Star feng shui?

Flying Star feng shui (玄空飞星, Xuan Kong Fei Xing) is one of the most widely used classical systems for reading a building. It treats time as part of the space: the same home carries different energy as the years pass, and Flying Star tracks that change with a grid of nine numbered stars laid over the floor plan.

Why a property has its own chart

Every building has a natal chart fixed at the moment its energy is considered to begin. It depends on two things: which way the main entrance faces, and which 20-year period the property belongs to, based on the year it was built. Two homes on the same street can have very different charts if they face different directions or belong to different periods.

How the chart is built

The nine palaces cover the eight compass directions and the centre. Each palace holds a Mountain star, traditionally read for people and the household (人丁), and a Water star, read for wealth (财), alongside the base star of the period. On top of this natal chart sits the annual star, which moves to a new palace each year when the solar new year begins on Feb 4 (立春).
