May 2021 Yin Water Snake (Gui Si 癸 巳)

May 5 - Apr 4 2021 is the month of the Yin Water Snake. Snake element is Yin Fire, so this month has the energy of rain over fire. Picture droplets of water dancing on a hot pavement. This characterization depicts movement; May will be a month of movement. This can play out in a literal sense such as physical movement from place to place/travel, an ideological movement, a change of heart or enlightenment, changes in employment status, or even changes due to diplomacy or communications.

The Snake marks the transition to summer. Its character is graceful, calm, composed, expressive, sensible, intellectual,but she moves with purpose and strength according to plan. As such, the movement of this month will most likely have a certain elegance to it. Rather than violent upheavals, it will come thoughtfully, through decent, sophisticated, eloquence. While the water droplets of Yin Water may dance on the Yin Fire of Snake, use this energy as you seek changes in your own life. The gentle, deliberate nature of Snake can help your deliberations and underscore your movement with the strength of your convictions within a composed and thoughtful framework.

BAZI:

This is a clash month if you have Pig in your year, month, day, or hour of your BaZi. A clash has the potential for discomfort and obstacles. Often a clash month is one of growth so if this is a clash month for you, use this month to be more vigilant of your actions, re-assess your past actions, and take a close look at your current trajectory.

This is a nobleman month if you have Yin Water or Yang water in your year or day pillar of your BaZi. You’ll have guardian angels at your disposal if you meet them half way.

Be cautious this month if you were born in the year of the Tiger, Horse, or Dog. It’s not a good month for making important decisions, but if you have no other choice, move slowly, deliberately, and take precautions. Avoid anything that’s high risk.

FENG SHUI:

The Center Palace of every building this month brings potential for illness as the 2 Black Illness Star (earth) visits, where it is fed by the earth of the Center Palace and the annual 9 Purple Star (fire). The dense, damp earth can definitely put a damper on things. It’s advisable to avoid taking risks.

The least favorable locations in the building are the Center (Illness) and the Northeast (Misfortune) sectors. Avoid activating or occupying these areas. Place 6 round metal coins of any denomination or origin in each of these two sectors to reduce the dense earth. This metal acts as acupuncture for your home or office, reducing the the dense earth and opening meridians to enhance qi flow.

The most favorable sector this month is the East, where the expansive 9 Purple star visits a wood sector with a wood annual star to “feed the fire” of this expansive star. This is a great sector to spend time, for planning, doing business, and gatherings. If your front door is located here, it will activate a joyful, celebratory energy.
