Staff Cecil Lee Posted October 9, 2003 Staff Share Posted October 9, 2003 Dear Carlos,Please see below:- Quote On 10/9/2003 8:47:07 PM, Anonymous wrote:Dear Master:I have come across some termswhose meaning is difficult forme to grasp.Could you be sokind to explain them?.If theyare too basic please forgivemy ignorance.the terms are:Yun / Mingcommander ( timely) / "Losingthe yun" ( untimely )This is based on the interpretation of one of the I-Ching hexagrams. There are a total of 64 hexagrams in the I-Ching oracle. You can purchase books on I-Ching to find the combination of the base hexagrams and their combinations on each other.Purple white starSome authors say that star 2black belongs to water elementand others say it belongs toearth element, the samehappens with star 7 some sayit's metal others say it'sfire. Please note that there are two categories here:-1. Actual, academic interpretation of each of the numbers based on the Flying Star numerology.The Flying Star numbers and their significance:-1 = water (blue, black or grey)2 = strong earth (yellow)3 = strong wood (green)4 = weak wood (green)5 = strong earth (Bad Yellow)6 = strong metal (gold)7 = weak metal (gold)8 = small earth (yellow)9 = fire (red, pink or purple)2. What you may be confused about is about the Chinese `rhyme' or `verse' created to give a practitioner a sense of what is "good" and what is "bad".This has much to do, with trying to create something which one can remember.For those who were born around 1960s or earlier, would recall the "Black and White Mistrel Show". Where the singers and dancers are (white) but painted themselves black.Here, this verse or rhyme wanted to educate or let the user easily memorise terms.The Nine Star Colour TERMS:1 = white2 = black3 = Primary Green colour4 = Light Green5 = dull yellow6 = white7 = brown or sometimes maroon8 = white9 = purpleIf one looks carefully, WHITE is suppose to represent goodness or auspicious. For example, a wedding glown is often white (virgin).Thus under this verse, which one memories: 1, 6 and 8 are considered auspicious since they are White.The other "dark" colours (so long as they are not white) perhaps no longer "virgin" colours? They are suppose to represent Bad stars or numbers.This is why, sometimes, a Feng Shui master would like to recommend the use of 1 black fish with 6 gold fish. Since 1 and 6 are "white" or clean or auspicious numbers. Quote I also came across thefollowing sentences , one ofthem belongs to you:"a weakmetal person's wealth careeris in the wood area but betterif associated with earthelement".What does that mean?could you please explain?the next one says: "goodfortune always and withoutexception reveals itself as 5or multiply of 5"Please do more homework, and search my previous postings. You should able to find what I meant, here. Warmest Regards,Cecil Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
