Yin Wood Goat (Yi Wei)

Yi Wei (乙 未 ) Month

July 7 - Aug 6 is the Yin Wood Goat/Sheep/Ram Month. July is the end of the Summer season and the Fire element. This forms the Contemplation Hexagram (#20) of Wind over Earth, which brings an energy of contemplation…of observation, introspection, perception, and contemplation of the world and work. Contemplate your motivations and discern the purity of your intent. Be an example, looking outward from within. Make adjustments/changes to thinking or actions that aren’t supporting you in context with the greater good. Remember that you are connected on a cellular level with the world around you. Your actions have a ripple effect.

Hexagram 20 - Contemplation

This is your Nobleman month if you were born in a year ending with 0, 4, or 8, or if you have Yang Wood (Jia 甲), Yang Earth (Wu 戊 ), or Yang Metal (Geng 庚) in the day of your birth. Helpful people will be around you if you need them.

This is your Clash month if you have Ox in your year, month (December), day, or hour (1a-3am). Overall, however, this is a Year Breaker clash month. This can create obstacles or disturbances. Clash often results in changes or growth but both are uncomfortable. Be careful not to put yourself in harms way or take risks. Leverage the clash energy to your benefit.

This is an Earth Penalty month for those with both the Dog & Ox in their birth chart and/or luck charts (10-yr or annual). If you have this combination, this month can be challenging, so stay focused and don’t let the day-to-day drama unnerve and derail you. This, too, shall pass and the results may be an opportunity. Your behavior/actions will determine the outcome.

The overall Feng Shui energy for this month is expansive and celebratory, as the 9 Purple Star (Fire) of Growth enters. There’s a bit of tension due to the dominance of the annual 6 White metal, but the Earth element of the Center Palace mitigates this into a productive, harmonious cycle that will support inner work. between the BaZi and Feng Shui energy this month, it’s overall very supportive. Make good use of it through your actions. Stay focused and firm, but flexible in your approach. 2021 Is a year for spiritual alignment, so be willing to do the inner and outer work that will align you spiritually with the approaching Era 9, and the so-called “Age of Aquarius.” There’s much work to do!

Add or move your monthly adjustments of 6 metal coins each to the North (misfortune) and West (illness). These coins can be of any denomination, just as long as they’re round and made of metal. Keep in mind that this monthly adjustment is in addition to your annual adjustments and don’t affect them.

Qi Men Dun Jia for July

The Qi Men Dun Jia sector that offers the most opportunity in July is North. The Black Tortoise Deity that pulls in positive energy and filters out negative energy resides here this month. There are three stars that Black Tortoise boosts this month:

The Assistant Star attracts Noblemen, or helpful people. It’s also helpful in education/learning. So if you want to attract the right teacher, doctor, or other helpful people into your life this month, this star is active.

The Scenary Star attracts an optimistic mindset. Some call it the star of hope or faith. If you need a healthy dose of optimism, use this star this month.

The Wu Earth Star attracts wealth. If you’re trying to attract investors, ideas, or a fresh cash flow, command this star’s assistance this month.

To use the energy of the North, sit with your back to the north and settle into a quiet meditation. Command the star of choice to assist you in whatever it is you want to attract. Spend a little time in meditation to clarify your command. The best time of day is between 7a-9a, local time, but you may do this at any time.
