2025 is expected to be a very good
year for those born in the Year of the Horse. Unmarried individuals will have
particularly strong romantic prospects, especially women, who may find their
ideal partner. Social relationships will also flourish. Additionally, Horses
will experience heightened wisdom, inspiration, and creativity, and they should
leverage this wisdom for success. If you plan to pursue any professional
certifications or further education, the Wenchang Star will provide helpful
support. Moreover, male benefactors will be especially favorable this year.
You’ll also enjoy many dining and social events, but be mindful of overeating,
which may impact your health, and avoid getting entangled in undesirable
romantic situations due to excessive socializing.
### Auspicious Stars
**[Sky (Tian Kong)]**
This star enhances creativity and
inspiration. For those in creative fields such as design, advertising, writing,
or screenwriting, your imagination will be boundless this year.
**[Sun (Tai Yang)]**
A powerful and traditional lucky
star, it represents widespread support and assistance from benefactors. It
suggests that you will shine in the workplace and are especially favored for
expanding into foreign markets. The Sun also represents male benefactors,
indicating strong support from men, and for women, it enhances romantic
prospects, increasing your charm and appeal. Male customers, bosses, colleagues,
relatives, and friends will be particularly helpful to you this year.
**[Wenchang Star]**
This star is beneficial for studying,
exams, and career advancement. It's a great time to pursue education and
prepare for the future. Wenchang symbolizes intelligence, meaning that this
year, Horses should win through wisdom. It also helps turn bad situations into
good ones, representing elegance and ambition. This star is especially
beneficial for students and those seeking promotions.
**[Heavenly Kitchen (Tian
Chu)]**
This star represents food and dining,
signifying plenty of socializing and enjoyment. You’ll have many opportunities
to attend social gatherings and enjoy good food. If you work in the food
industry, such as a chef or restaurant owner, this will be a successful year
for you.
### Inauspicious Stars
**[Annual Affliction]**
This star serves as a reminder to be
cautious with important decisions. Avoid acting impulsively to minimize the
negative impact of this star.
**[Misfortune]**
Misfortune may affect interpersonal
relationships, leading to misunderstandings due to poor communication. This
star represents bad luck or sickness, indicating unfavorable circumstances, so
be mindful of your health this year.
**[Xianchi Peach Blossom]**
This is an unstable romance star,
indicating fleeting romantic relationships. With strong romantic energy this
year, single individuals should seize the opportunity, but those who are
married should be wary of bad romantic entanglements. This year will bring a
vibrant social life, which is particularly beneficial for those in sales and
marketing, as your charm will help you succeed in your work.
The outlook for those born in the
Year of the Rat in 2025 is relatively positive, with auspicious stars like **Zi
Wei**, **Long De**, and **Yu Tang** offering protection. You will benefit from
helpful people and experience financial prosperity. The presence of the **Yu
Tang** star, which symbolizes abundance and wealth, indicates a chance to
achieve great success in both financial matters and personal talents. However,
it's crucial to remember that despite the favorable circumstances, you should
not become overconfident. Excessive pride may lead to unexpected setbacks, as
success followed by arrogance can bring about sudden misfortune.
### Auspicious Stars
**Zi Wei and Long De**: These two
powerful stars bring many opportunities in 2025. Challenges will turn into
opportunities, especially in your career, thanks to helpful figures around you.
**Zi Wei** is a star of dignity and status, representing promotions and
advancements at work. It is also known as the "Emperor Star," being
the brightest star in the Big Dipper, symbolizing power and influence. The
star's significance can be seen in the name of Beijing's Forbidden City, **Zi
Wei** Palace, underscoring its strength. **Long De**, the benefactor star,
particularly benefits those in administrative roles or salaried workers,
helping you showcase your talents and leadership. With **Zi Wei** guiding you,
it's essential to seize opportunities, push forward, and showcase your skills
to receive recognition and promotion.
**Yu Tang**: Symbolizing
"abundant wealth and talent," this star suggests that 2025 is a great
year to showcase your abilities and improve your financial situation. If you
have plans for investments or developments, they will likely be favorable,
especially for those born during the time pillar from 11 PM to 1 AM. Make sure
to capitalize on these opportunities.
### Inauspicious Stars
**Bao Bai**: This star warns Rat-born
individuals to be cautious of saying too much, as excessive confidence or pride
can create enemies and drag down your overall fortunes. It is essential to stay
humble at all times and avoid arrogance. As the **I Ching** (Book of Changes)
teaches, the best hexagram is the "Modesty" hexagram, emphasizing
humility. No matter what you achieve, maintaining a humble attitude will help
you move forward without issues. **Bao Bai** suggests that things that seem to
be going well may suddenly reverse, so it’s important to know when to pull back
and avoid being overly boastful or demeaning others, as this could provoke
jealousy or unnecessary trouble.
**Tian E**: This star represents the
possibility of minor accidents, and thus health and safety should be
prioritized. In 2025, Rat-born individuals should be mindful of changes in
their environment and be proactive in preventing sudden health issues or
mishaps. **Tian E** may also lead to mental stress or emotional turbulence, so
it's important to stay alert and manage your mindset to navigate the year
safely.
### Summary
In 2025, Rat-born individuals are
under the protection of auspicious stars, offering good opportunities in career
and financial matters. However, it is crucial to remain humble and cautious to
avoid setbacks caused by pride. Additionally, pay close attention to health and
safety to ensure a smooth and prosperous year.
**Feng Shui Prediction for the Year
2025 - Yi Si Green Snake Year**
On August 23, 2023, I published a
prediction for 2024 on my [blog](https://penangfengshui.blogspot.com/2023/08/2024-1-2024-feng-shui-prediction-1.html),
where I stated: The Four Pillars Bazi for the Start of Spring 2024 indicate
significant conflicts. The Heavenly Stems clash between Jia and Geng, while the
Earthly Branches clash between Chen and Xu, Yin and Shen. The Seven Killings
are revealed, signaling a volatile year ahead. Conflicts between nations and
political upheavals are inevitable, along with a heightened risk of terrorist activities
and wars, especially in the Middle East, as the annual Three Jade Conflict Star
will be in the center palace in 2024, indicating continuous warfare.
Earthquakes and landslides will frequently occur. The Bazi for the Start of
Spring shows no visible wealth star, meaning the global economy will not be good,
and I advise everyone to take a conservative approach.
2024 also marks the beginning of the
Ninth Period, with the timely Nine Star appearing in the Kun Palace,
symbolizing the rise of female power. Female leaders will demonstrate their
strength. Meanwhile, the Wen Chang Star will be in the Qian Palace (Northwest),
which represents male leadership, especially older leaders. This suggests that
elder leaders, such as 76-year-old Anwar, will have the wisdom to solve
problems. Compared to 2023, when the inauspicious Five Yellow Star was in the
Northwest, 2024 will be a much smoother year for elder leaders. Have these
predictions already come to pass?
1. **Tian Ji Star (Transformation
into Lu)**: Tian Ji, like Zhuge Liang, represents wisdom and strategy, while Lu
signifies wealth. Therefore, professionals such as accountants and lawyers are
likely to gain wealth in 2025. Industries that offer consultancy services, such
as Feng Shui and metaphysics, will also benefit. As Tian Ji belongs to the Wood
element, industries related to Wood, such as education, furniture, stationery,
and agriculture, will have a good year. Tian Ji also governs relationships
between siblings, meaning industries that rely on teamwork, such as marketing
and insurance, will perform well.
2. **Tian Liang Star (Transformation
into Quan)**: Tian Liang is akin to Sima Yi, symbolizing seasoned wisdom and
stability. In 2025, Tian Liang’s influence will grow, representing elder,
experienced figures asserting authority. These individuals may be stubborn and
traditional but also nurturing to younger generations—provided the young listen
to them. Therefore, the older generation will play a significant role in 2025.
In particular, Malaysia’s political scene will be worth watching, as it is
often dominated by older leaders.
3. **Zi Wei Star (Transformation into
Ke)**: Zi Wei is the Emperor Star, symbolizing authority and status. Ke
represents fame, indicating that 2025 will be a year in which academia and
scholars gain significant recognition. This is a favorable year for researchers
and academics to earn prestige.
4. **Tai Yin Star (Transformation
into Ji)**: Tai Yin is the star representing females and the moon, associated
with Yin energy. It also relates to problematic romantic relationships.
According to Zi Wei Dou Shu, 2025 may be challenging for women, with risks of
water-related disasters, as Tai Yin belongs to the Water element. Additionally,
the star also carries a mystical aspect that could cause emotional and
psychological unrest.
#### According to the Flying Star Chart
for 2025:
1. **One White Star** will be in the
Southeast, representing romance luck. This suggests that the eldest daughter or
older women in the family may experience an increase in romantic opportunities.
2. **Three Jade Conflict Star** will
be in the Northwest, indicating that elder men or male leaders will be involved
in disputes and conflicts. Fathers within families should also be cautious.
3. **Five Yellow Star** will be in
the Northeast, warning that younger sons or young men in the family may face
misfortune and accidents. They should especially be careful when driving.
Natural disasters may affect areas like China, Sabah, and Beijing.
4. **Three Sha** will be in the East,
suggesting that Taiwan, Japan, and the Philippines may face disasters. However,
the timely **Nine Purple Star** in the East offers protection, providing hope
that these regions will overcome difficulties.
5. The **Wen Chang Star** in the West
implies that Western nations might see new inventions or breakthroughs.
#### Bazi Prediction for the Start of
Spring in 2025:
The Bazi for 2025 shows that the
Heavenly Stem, Day Stem, and Year Stem are all Yin, making the year softer and
less stressful than 2024, which had stronger Yang energy. As a result, people
may adopt a more laid-back approach to life.
In 2025, both the Day Stem and Hour
Stem are Gui Water, competing to combine with the Wu Earth of the Month Stem.
Wu Earth represents the official star, which suggests people will compete to
flatter their superiors or leaders to gain benefits. Consequently, leaders may
become complacent due to excessive praise from subordinates, potentially
clouding their judgment. It is crucial for leaders to remain clear-headed in
2025.
#### 2025 Yi Si Year as the Green
Snake Year:
Unlike 2024, where the Heavenly Stem
clashed with the Earthly Branch, 2025 will see the Yin Wood (Yi) nurturing the
Yang Fire (Si). This Wood nourishing Fire signifies a year that will be
relatively stable and peaceful.
If time permits, I will continue to
share more insights into the Feng Shui predictions for 2025. Please stay tuned.
Today, I will teach you how to check
your zodiac fortune for each Lunar New Year. First, it’s crucial to understand
whether your zodiac sign will clash with Tai Sui (the Grand Duke Jupiter) or
face the Tai Sui clash in that year. You can refer to my previous video, which
explains the concepts of offending Tai Sui and clashing with Tai Sui in a
concise manner: Video Link(https://youtu.be/PPXJnucwBms)。
2025 is the Year of the Snake, so
people born under the Snake sign will face Tai Sui. The opposite sign of Snake
is Pig, which represents the clash with Tai Sui. Generally, those born in the
Year of the Pig will experience worse fortune because the negative energy of
the clash with Tai Sui is strongest. If you face Tai Sui or clash with Tai Sui
this year, you will usually encounter more troubles, feeling that one problem
is followed by another, with limited support and results that fall short of
expectations. However, there’s no need to worry excessively. Maintaining a calm
mind set and taking a defensive rather than aggressive approach is a wise
choice. It is recommended to visit a temple for prayers and good deeds before
the beginning of spring (February 3 2025), and to perform acts of charity such
as giving alms because “one must give to receive.” Another solution is to place
decorations or photos of the zodiac signs that are in harmony with Tai Sui in
the Tai Sui position of your home. To find the Tai Sui position in your home,
you can use a compass. Stand at the center of your home, open the compass on
your phone, and find the southeast position between 142.5 and 157.5 degrees.
Place decorations of the Ox and Rooster there to counteract Tai Sui's negative
energy. Also, avoid any construction or renovations in that area.
The Snake, Rooster, and Ox are in
harmony, so people born in the Year of the Rooster and Ox will have more
support in 2025. Those born in the Year of the Monkey will also have favorable
fortune since the Monkey and Snake have a harmonious relationship. However,
there is a conflict between Snake, Monkey, and Tiger which may affect the
Monkey’s fortune. ‘Conflict’ means potential penalties, including traffic
fines. The ‘conflict of power’ formed by the Snake, Monkey, and Tiger may lead
to efforts that exceed rewards, with others failing to appreciate your
contributions. To understand these zodiac relationships, including clashes,
harmonies, conflicts, and harms, you can refer to my Bazi book: Book Link ,https://penangfengshui.com/portfolio/book_004/
which explains these concepts in detail.
Additionally, the relationship
between the Snake and Tiger is one of mutual harm, which could lead to
encountering troublemakers, disputes, or jealousy from others. This
relationship will cause potential argument. Therefore, people born in the Year
of the Tiger will have worse fortune in the Year of the Snake and should focus
on doing good deeds, adopting a defensive approach rather than being
aggressive, and thinking carefully before taking action.
Of course, one should not judge a
year’s fortune solely based on zodiac signs, as the Bazi (Four Pillars of
Destiny) including the year, month, day, and time are also important. You can
use online tools to check your Bazi for an accurate understanding of your
year’s fortune. The year zodiac represents the environment, the month zodiac represents
capabilities, the day zodiac represents interpersonal relationships, and the
time zodiac represents plans.
After examining zodiac relationships,
we also need to consider the auspicious and inauspicious stars for each zodiac
sign this year.
In 2025, people born in the Year of
the Rat will have the best fortune due to the presence of the powerful
auspicious stars Zi Wei Star and Long De Star. Zi Wei Star is the brightest
star in the Big Dipper and is known as the Emperor Star, thus having the
strongest energy. People born in the Year of the Rat will have the most
favorable fortune and supportive environment in 2025.
Regarding wealth, people born in the
Year of the Rat, Rabbit, and Tiger will have good fortune. The Rat will have
opportunities for wealth due to the presence of the Yu Tang Star. People born
in the Year of the Rabbit and Tiger will also be blessed by fortune stars, as
they each have Lu Xing and Ba Zuo. Ba Zuo is like having a luxury car; although
Tigers have negative energy from conflicts and harms, they also have wealth
stars. People born in the Year of the Rabbit have the negative star Tian Gou,
so they should be particularly careful during solar and lunar eclipses, as Tian
Gou eating the Sun (also known as Tian Gou swallowing the Sun) brings negative
energy, especially affecting those born in the Year of the rabbit. Therefore, it
is advisable to donate to a stray dog protection association.
In terms of work and career, people
born in the Year of the Rooster, Dog, and Pig will perform well due to the
presence of auspicious stars related to power, with opportunities for
promotion. For support, those born in the Year of the Rat, Tiger, Horse,
Monkey, and Dog will have help from benefactors.
For romance, people born in the Year
of the Dragon and Dog will have good fortune. People born in the Year of the
Dog will have the Hong Luan Star, which may bring marriage or joyful events.
People born in the Year of the Dragon will have the Tian Xi Star, which may
bring new additions to the family or marriage. In terms of opposite-sex
relationships, people born in the Year of the Horse will be the most fortunate
but should beware of inappropriate relationships. People born in the Year of
the Horse will have both the Peach Blossom and Xian Chi stars, leading to more
social interactions, but they must be cautious of inappropriate relationships.
In terms of health, people born in
the Year of the Dragon, Snake, and Horse should pay particular attention to
their health. People born in the Year of the Horse are especially intelligent
due to the presence of the Wen Chang Star. People born in the Year of the
Sheep, after years of good fortune, will need to rely on their own efforts in
2025 due to the lack of auspicious stars and limited support.
In 2025, zodiac signs prone to
disputes and misfortune include the Ox, Tiger, and Rooster. Be cautious of
being misled or falling victim to fraud or complaints. To counteract this,
avoid placing trash bins in the northeast, as it is affected by the 5 Yellow Star
of Misfortune, which impacts the Tiger and Ox the most. Since San Sha (Three
Killings) is in the east, which is the direction of the Rabbit, people born in
the Year of the Rabbit should also guard against disasters by placing three
Qilin statues in the east to suppress the San Sha, especially those born in the
Year of the Rabbit.
People born in the Year of the Snake
should also be cautious of blood-related disasters and might need to undergo
surgery. It is advised for people born in the Year of the Snake to donate blood
this year to mitigate the effects.
If time permits, I will create
detailed videos for each zodiac sign’s fortune, sharing detailed insights on
each sign's luck. Stay tuned!
What can we expect in 2025? Just as
in previous years, we will use Feng Shui and metaphysical principles to make
predictions. The Lunar New Year of 2025 begins on January 29th, but technically,
the Year of the Snake doesn’t start until the Spring Festival on February 3rd
at 22:10 2024. Therefore, babies born on Lunar New Year's Day still belong to
the Year of the Dragon, not the Snake—a fact that many people often
misunderstand.
One method to predict the coming
year’s fortune is by analyzing the Spring Festival’s Bazi (Four Pillars of
Destiny). In my view, the Bazi of the 2025 Spring Festival looks more favorable
than that of 2024. This is because the 2025 Bazi shows more harmonious
interactions than clashes. The Bazi of 2024 had many conflicting elements,
making it a challenging year, with global economic difficulties that many
people felt in their daily lives. The 2025 Bazi shows harmony between Gui and
Wu, Yin and Hai, and Mao and Hai, while only Yin and Si, and Si and Hai show
clashes. If you understand Bazi, you’ll know that in every Year of the Snake,
there are usually some conflicts due to the Yin-Si clash during the Spring
Festival. This indicates potential criminal activities, disputes, and political
instability in 2025. Fraud and misleading events will continue to occur, so
everyone needs to be cautious.
However, I want to emphasize that the
Bazi for 2025 has more harmonious aspects. Therefore, compared to 2024, the
relationships between countries and people will likely improve, leading to
better cooperation and prosperity.
The 2025 Spring Festival Bazi shows
that the Food God star is prominent, symbolizing freedom, indulgence, and a
relaxed attitude. Many people will adopt a more laid-back approach, focusing on
enjoying life. This will be beneficial for the tourism, dining, and
entertainment industries.
According to the annual flying stars,
the ruling 9-star will appear in the East in 2025. This bodes well for the
economic development of East Malaysia, Taiwan, Japan, and the Philippines.
However, the East will also experience the Three Killings, bringing potential
disasters and conflicts to these regions. The most dangerous Five Yellow Star
appears in the Northeast, which is unfavorable for South Korea, North Korea,
and China, likely causing economic setbacks and continuous disasters. The
Illness Star (2 Black) occupies the center, meaning the world must be vigilant
about the spread of diseases in 2025. The Dispute Star (3 Jade) flies to the
Northwest, indicating possible political unrest in Penang, Malaysia. On the
other hand, Southeast Asia will benefit from auspicious stars, particularly the
1 White Star in the Southeast. Meanwhile, Russia in the North should be wary,
as the ongoing war with Ukraine will likely continue, leading to unfavorable
outcomes, symbolized by the 7 Breaking Army Star in the North, representing
destruction and conflicts. The northern Russia in 2025 needs to be wary of the negative impacts caused by the prolonged Russia-Ukraine war.
What does the 2025 Geomantic Mother
Classic say?
The Geomantic Mother Classic states:
High and low crops are lush,
Spring and summer see many floods;
Autumn and winter double the grain
yield,
Rice and wheat are abundant;
Mulberries are abandoned in Wu and
Hui,
Heavenly insects move inside baskets;
Silkworm women weep for the expensive
leaves,
Silk cotton doesn’t weigh,
The price of cloth is unmatched.
Basically, it predicts a good year
for agriculture, with abundant harvests. However, spring and autumn weather
will be unstable, with possible extreme weather or landslides. In the textile
industry, raw material prices are expected to rise, making business challenging
due to high costs.
I’ve long wanted to share a very
special metaphysical principle with you, which is Qi Men Dun Jia. Qi Men Dun
Jia is an advanced metaphysical knowledge that is difficult to master. If you
want to learn it, you must understand all aspects of the I Ching, Feng Shui,
Bazi, and metaphysics. Qi Men Dun Jia is an ancient Chinese mystical art used
for predicting the future and formulating strategies. It combines principles of
astronomy, calendar, Yin-Yang, and the Five Elements and is closely related to
military tactics and strategy. In ancient times, Qi Men Dun Jia was considered
a profound study, often applied in important decision-making areas such as
military, politics, and commerce.
The core of Qi Men Dun Jia lies in
the use of the "Nine Palaces and Eight Trigrams" concept, combined
with heavenly stems, earthly branches, eight gates, nine stars, six deities,
and three wonders to arrange a layout. Based on factors like time and location,
Qi Men Dun Jia can calculate auspicious and inauspicious directions and action
strategies to achieve good fortune and avoid misfortune.
Historically, Qi Men Dun Jia was
regarded as an essential tool for emperors and generals, even being called the
"Art of Emperors." However, due to its complexity and mystique, it
became a secret skill mastered by only a few. If we use the 2025 Spring
Festival time to create a Qi Men Dun Jia chart, we find that it is a Fuyin
chart. Fuyin represents stagnation, immobility, delay, and maintaining the
status quo. This result aligns with the earlier Bazi calculation, suggesting
that many people will adopt a less proactive and more conservative approach in
2025, leading to slow economic growth and a lack of motivation.
