On March 3, there will be a total lunar eclipse. It also falls on the 15th day of the Chinese New Year, Chap Goh Mei. This combination is interesting.

Lunar eclipses are not a cause for panic: they are generally milder than solar eclipses.
However, they tend to affect the emotional level more than the structural one.

In simple terms, people may perceive things more intensely.
Reactions can be sharper.

It is not a day to force outcomes.
If you can, avoid making important and irreversible decisions during that time window. Avoid escalating tension.

Let conversations settle before responding.

This is not superstition. It is a matter of timing.

When the rhythm pauses, it is wiser to slow down.

Classical Feng Shui. The Fortune of the House. Volume 1: A Translation and Commentary of a Chinese Text from 1928

A unique work on the international stage…
For those who choose to purchase it, a review would be deeply appreciated…
(Available on Amazon)

FENG SHUI CLASSIC – THE FORTUNE OF THE HOUSE

It was 2007, during a study journey to Hong Kong, when I met Master Paul Hung Lik Pui.
At the time, I could not have imagined that this encounter would so profoundly shape my path of research and teaching, nor that it would eventually lead me, years later, to translate this rare text of Classical Feng Shui.

Among specialized bookstores and volumes rescued from the oblivion of history, a rare work emerges—written in 1928—gathering ancient teachings of Classical Feng Shui.
For years, that book remained waiting.

Only time, experience, and decades of study made possible the right moment to bring it back to light.
This volume is born from that waiting.

It is the translation and commentary of a text that preserves the authentic roots of Feng Shui—a body of knowledge once reserved for a few, surviving persecutions, destruction, and silence, and reaching us through an unbroken transmission.

Not a manual. Not a trend. But a return to the origins.

A work conceived for those who wish to understand Feng Shui in its true depth—as a discipline of Qi, time, and dwelling—and for those who feel that certain teachings do not arrive by chance, but only when one is ready to receive them.

When yin shows the characteristics of yang: the Matterhorn with its pointed pyramid shape is a fire mountain

In physiognomy, the ears correspond to the first 14 years of life...for the ancients, the energy of the spine develops starting from the sacrum like a river at its source, up to the brain which is the arrival at the sea...

From the Feng Shui Canon: unpublished book of 1928, in translation

玄者何。一也。空者何。九也。自一至九。極數之能，事窮。

What is the Mystery? It is the One.
What is the Void? It is the Nine.
From one to nine.
When the extreme numbers are reached, things come to their end.

Note:
In the context of classical Chinese cosmology and the numerological language of the Yi Jing (易經) and Feng Shui, the number 9 is associated with the concept of the Void (空) for several symbolic reasons:

Numbers and cyclicity
In ancient texts it is often said: 始一而終九 (“one begins with the One and concludes with the Nine”).
One represents the beginning, the sprouting of Qi.
Nine represents the maximum completion of the numerical cycle before returning to zero or the Void.
Therefore, after nine there is nothing else except the return to the Void, to the principle.

Nine as the maximum of Yang
In the cycles of the Later Heaven, nine is the most Yang number (阳).
When Yang reaches its culmination, it can only transform again.
That moment of extreme transition is compared to the Void (空), that is, the point at which form is annulled in order to allow a new cycle.

The energy of the physical, when it comes to an end, passes into the subtle, and then re-enters the physical in another cycle.

If you were born in the Year of the Horse, or if the Horse appears in any sector of your Destiny Chart, the year 2026 formally places you at the center of attention.

This is your Grand Duke year: visibility increases, along with the level of expectations placed upon you.

As a result, the decisions you make during this period carry greater significance and long-term impact than usual.

Many people know that 2026 is the Year of the Fire Horse.
As a result, those born in 2026 are commonly identified as being born under the sign of the Fire Horse.

This is the so-called Year Sign, and it is the most widely known and commonly used reference.

What is often overlooked, however, is that every person also has a Month Sign, a Day Sign, and even an Hour Sign.

Therefore, an individual may be born in the Year of the Fire Horse, in the Month of the Tiger, on the Day of the Rat, and during the Hour of the Ox.

Each of these zodiacal layers contributes in a distinct way to an individual’s overall configuration, influencing personal traits, modes of action, timing, and life direction.

For this reason, when analyzing forecasts for 2026, it is not sufficient to focus on a single factor: an accurate reading requires considering the complete framework, not just one sign.

When people are asked about their sign, horoscope, or astrology, they usually respond with statements such as “I am a Leo” or “She is such a Libra.”

This creates the impression that the entire human population can be divided into only twelve categories, which seems highly implausible. How could billions of individuals share just twelve personalities?

The truth is that this idea originates from the most simplified and publicly visible layer of Western astrology, not from the system in its full and authentic complexity.

Western Astrology Is Far More Than the Sun Sign

Western astrology is not limited to the Sun sign alone. It includes the Moon, the Ascendant, planetary positions, houses, and angular relationships. Taken together, these elements generate millions of unique natal chart combinations. This is why Western astrology can be effective in identifying personality patterns, emotional responses, and inner motivations.

It is also remarkably accessible to beginners. Even someone with no prior study of astrology can grasp the core structure of their chart within minutes. This accessibility represents one of Western astrology’s principal strengths.

And it works. Millions of individuals have gained greater clarity regarding their strengths, desires, tendencies, and emotional landscape through engagement with Western astrology.

Western and Chinese astrology arise from different cultural traditions, yet they were developed for the same fundamental purpose. Human beings have long sought to understand themselves and the world they inhabit. Our ancestors first turned their gaze toward the sky, and both systems translated celestial observation into practical, usable frameworks.

Chinese Astrology Addresses a Different Question

Whereas Western astrology asks who you are, Chinese astrology asks who you are within a specific period of time.

Chinese astrology examines how personal energy interacts with the year, month, day, and even the hour of birth. It functions as a timing system, a strategic framework, and a navigational tool for life.

A BaZi chart consists of four pillars, each containing an animal sign and an element. These combinations create millions of possible chart variations, each mapping how personal energy rises, declines, transforms, and shifts throughout the course of life.

A simplified interpretation of the Four Pillars is as follows:

• The Year Pillar represents the external world and social environment
• The Month Pillar reflects career and immediate surroundings
• The Day Pillar represents the inner self and personal relationships
• The Hour Pillar indicates ambitions, ideas, and future direction

Together, these pillars provide a structured overview of an individual’s life cycle.

The Role of the Twelve Animal Signs

Each new year introduces a shift in Qi. The twelve animal signs represent distinct energetic patterns that interact with the Four Pillars. This explains why certain years feel smooth and supportive, while others feel intense or challenging.

Some signs experience increased opportunities. Others encounter obstacles. Some gain allies, while others enter periods of transformation.

Forecasting, in this context, is about understanding the timing of one’s personal energy in order to make informed decisions, take appropriate action, and navigate the year with greater awareness.

Did you know that your Chinese zodiac is not defined by a single animal sign? In fact, you have four, and each one reveals a different dimension of your life.

The word “lunatic” derives from *Luna*, the Latin term for the Moon.

For millennia, humanity has associated the Moon with changes in human behavior. Not as mere superstition, but as the result of observation. Even today, during full Moons, emergency rooms report an increase in admissions, law enforcement agencies reinforce their shifts, and teachers prepare for greater instability.

Coincidence? Those who work daily within these dynamics rarely consider it so.

The essential point is this: the Moon moves the oceans. This is not symbolism, but physical law. Its gravitational force is sufficient to shift billions of liters of water along coastlines, every single day.

The Earth is composed of approximately 70% water.
The human body is as well.

Blood, organs, the brain: systems that are largely fluid, contained by solid structures yet governed by subtle dynamics. If the Moon can influence entire oceans, it is unreasonable to assume that human beings are completely immune to its effects.

They are not.

The ancient Chinese did not fear the Moon. They observed it and made use of it.

The Lunar New Year begins with the new Moon. Festivals, rituals, agricultural cycles, and crucial decisions were all established according to lunar rhythms. Nothing was accidental; this was a deliberate strategy of alignment.

Energy expresses itself through recurring patterns. The Moon represents the most visible and accessible of these cycles. Understanding its rhythm allows one to move in harmony with the flow, rather than against it.

Yet this is only the most immediate level.

From an astrological perspective, the Moon is among the least powerful celestial bodies influencing us. Jupiter is more than 1,300 times the size of Earth. Saturn could contain approximately 760 Earths within it. Ancient astrologers observed the movements of these giants with great care, recognizing a consistent correspondence between planetary cycles and major terrestrial events: wars, harvests, economic and social transformations.

It is within this framework that the 12 Animal Signs emerge—not as folkloric symbols, but as temporal markers. They describe how energy is distributed and transformed throughout the year, offering guidance on how to position oneself consciously within each phase of the cycle.

The New Year is approaching.

There is far more within this cosmic rhythm, and understanding it enables clearer, more strategic navigation.

Most people assume that the twelve zodiac signs were chosen simply because they sounded good together. In reality, their origin is far more precise. The number twelve was not selected at random, nor was it an arbitrary invention. It was adopted because ancient Chinese thinkers were deeply focused on understanding the flow of time, nature, and the cosmos, and they observed that many of life’s fundamental cycles unfolded in groups of twelve.

Let us begin with the basics. A year is made up of twelve months, a fact that alone was sufficient to anchor early calendar systems. To this was added the observation of Jupiter’s orbit. Jupiter was known as the “Star of the Year,” and its movement across the sky was divided into twelve principal phases. When a planet takes nearly twelve years to complete a full orbit around the Sun, it naturally draws attention, especially in a world where astronomy and survival were closely intertwined.

The same logic applied to space itself. Rather than limiting their orientation to north, south, east, and west, the Chinese divided space into twelve directional sectors, including the diagonal directions. This allowed for a much more nuanced understanding of environmental Qi than the simplified compass model most people imagine today.

Time, too, followed this structure. A day was divided into twelve two-hour periods, known as Shi Chen 时辰. Through these segments, people observed the movement of Qi, human activity, the rise and fall of energy, and the natural rhythms of daily life.

When sky, earth, and human experience are considered together, the number twelve appears repeatedly and consistently. Twelve made sense. Twelve worked. It was not a random choice, but the result of astronomical observation, mathematical coherence, and practical necessity. This is why the zodiac is composed of twelve animals, rather than ten, fifteen, or any other number chosen arbitrarily.
