In Feng Shui, the Flying Stars represent changing energy patterns that influence different areas of a home or workplace. Two of the most important stars to understand are Star #1 yearly star and Star #5 monthly star because they carry very different energies and are both in the centre of your home.
Flying Star #1 – The Water Star
Meaning:
Star #1 is connected with:
• career opportunities
• wisdom and learning
• communication
• new beginnings
• helpful connections
It is considered an auspicious star, bringing gentle supportive energy, especially for people wanting progress in life or business.
How to improve Star #1
To strengthen the positive influence of Star #1:
• Add water elements such as:
o a small water feature
o images of water
o glass décor
• Keep this area:
o clean
o bright
o calm
• Metal can also support this star because metal nourishes water in the Five Elements cycle.
This can help enhance:
• clarity
• flow
• abundance
• opportunities
Flying Star #5 – The Misfortune Star
Meaning:
Star #5 is often called the Five Yellow and is considered the most challenging star. It can bring:
• obstacles
• financial setbacks
• accidents
• illness
• emotional stress
• delays
Because it belongs to the Earth element, its heavy energy can create stagnation.
How to minimise the impact of Star #5
The best way to weaken Star #5 is with the Metal element, because:
Metal weakens Earth.
Recommended cures:
• Place metal objects in that sector:
o brass bowl
o metal ornaments
• Use:
o silver
o gold
o white
o grey colours
• A traditional salt water cure
• Keep the area:
o quiet
o uncluttered
o undisturbed
Avoid in that area: digging or renovations
