As we transition into the Yang Fire Dog Month from October 8 to November 6, 2025, the energy of the Chinese calendar shifts towards the end of autumn. This period marks a significant change in the seasonal cycle, bringing a deeper Yin energy that influences our environment and daily lives.
Seasonal Shift: Embracing the Yin
Following the Autumn Equinox on September 23, the Yang energy begins to wane, and Yin energy strengthens. Days become shorter, and the atmosphere turns cooler and more introspective. This seasonal shift encourages us to slow down, reflect, and prepare for the inner work that the approaching winter months will bring.
Flying Stars Analysis: Navigating the Energies
In the Flying Star chart for October 2025 (according to Chee Ba Flying Stars, Chue Style), the central star is Star 3, associated with conflict and arguments. This star combines with the annual Star 2, the Illness Star, creating a Wood-Earth clash. To mitigate these challenging energies, it’s advisable to enhance the Metal element and introduce Water (e.g. colour blue) elements in the affected areas.
Auspicious Directions:
- Southeast (1-4): Ideal for career advancements and personal growth.
- South (6-8): Supports health, wealth and fame.
- Southwest (8-6): Beneficial for health and wealth.
- West (4-1): Promotes creativity and academic pursuits.
Challenging Directions:
- Northeast (5-9) and East (9-5): These sectors are afflicted with the Chee Ba Flying Stars in Chue Style, indicating potential health issues and conflicts. It’s crucial to avoid using these areas for important activities, especially if the main door is located there. Remedies include placing Metal objects or Coin Charms to counteract the negative effects.
- North (7-7): The double Star 7 in the North brings potential for disputes and misunderstandings. Limit activities like negotiations or sensitive discussions in this area.
Bazi Insights: Understanding the Monthly Chart
The month begins on a Yang Metal Day, which influences the Bazi chart for October. The chart reveals a strong Metal presence, with Water (representing career and children) and Wood (representing wealth) being weak. This configuration suggests that, from a societal perspective, it’s not an optimal time for financial ventures or investments. It’s advisable to focus on consolidating existing resources and preparing for more favorable periods.
Practical Tips for the Month:
- Reflect and Reassess: Use this time to evaluate your goals and make necessary adjustments.
- Enhance Metal and Water Elements: Incorporate colors like white, gold, and blue in your environment at home.
- Avoid Major Financial Decisions: Given the weak Wood and Water elements, it’s prudent to delay significant investments.
- Practice Self-Care: With the increased Yin energy, prioritize rest and rejuvenation.
