Entering the Yi Wei month of the Bing Wu Horse Year of 2026 (approximately from July 7th to August 6th in the Gregorian calendar), the heavenly stem Yi wood generates the Bing fire, and the earthly branches Wu and Wei combine, the overall aura presents a state of wood and fire being clear and bright, and the earth energy gradually becoming prosperous. In the Nine Palaces Flying Stars chart of this month, the monthly star "Three Jade Star" enters the central palace, intersecting with the annual star "Five Yellow Star". Three Jade represents disputes, official lawsuits, and strife, while Five Yellow is a major ominous star. When the two meet, the energy field of this month becomes more turbulent. Therefore, precise home feng shui layout is particularly important to seek good fortune and avoid misfortune, in order to spend it peacefully.
Detailed Explanation of Auspicious and Inauspicious Directions of the Nine Palaces Flying Stars This Month
We need to combine the annual Flying Stars of 2026 with the monthly Flying Stars to comprehensively judge the auspicious and inauspicious conditions of each direction and take corresponding layout strategies.
Most Auspicious Directions
East (Annual Star Six White, Monthly Star One White): This month, the East welcomes the "One-Six combination". One White is the official star, and Six White is the power star, which is very beneficial for career, official luck, and wealth, especially suitable for people engaged in clerical, management, and planning work. The energy in this direction is powerful and should be used well.
Improvement Method: You can place a metal Wenchang Pagoda or a blue crystal ball in this direction to boost your career luck. Keep this place clean and bright, and spend more time working or studying here, which can be more effective.
Southwest (Annual Star Four Green, Monthly Star Nine Purple): The Four Green Wen Chang star and the Nine Purple celebratory star meet, forming a pattern of wood and fire being clear and bright. This direction is very beneficial for marriage, relationships, exams, and happy events in the family. For students, creative workers, and single people, this is the most important direction of the month.
Improvement Method: You can place four stems of water-cultured lucky bamboo or a pair of pink crystal mandarin ducks here to effectively promote peach blossom luck and Wen Chang luck. If you want to enhance family harmony, you can place a family photo.
Moderately Auspicious Directions
Northwest (Annual Star Eight White, Monthly Star Four Green): Eight White is the current wealth star, and Four Green is the Wen Chang star. Wealth and wisdom coexist. This direction is conducive to investment, learning, and creation, and can bring dual gains in wealth and literary reputation.
Improvement Method: You can place a yellow jade cornucopia or the Four Treasures of the Study here, which can not only increase wealth but also enlighten wisdom. Note that this direction should not be cluttered with too many sundries to avoid hindering the flow of the aura.
Northeast (Annual Star One White, Monthly Star Six White): Similar to the East direction, it is also a "One-Six combination", which is very beneficial for career and reputation. It is especially beneficial to the career development of the male head of the family or the eldest son.
Improvement Method: The layout method is similar to that of the East. You can place a metal wind chime or six emperor coins to enhance the power of gold and water, and promote power and travel luck.
Ominous Directions
West (Annual Star Nine Purple, Monthly Star Five Yellow): One of the most dangerous directions this month! The Five Yellow Star flies in, and the Nine Purple Fire Star promotes the Five Yellow Earth Star, doubling the ferocity, which is mainly related to accidents, diseases, financial losses, and official disputes. This direction should be static rather than dynamic.
Resolution Method: It is strictly forbidden to start construction, renovate, or place red or yellow objects in this direction. You must hang a string of copper wind chimes or place an An Ren water to use metal to vent the earth and resolve the Five Yellow evil energy. If the main door or bedroom of the house is in this direction, you need to pay special attention to the health and safety of family members when entering and leaving.
Central Palace (Annual Star Five Yellow, Monthly Star Three Jade): The annual and monthly Five Yellow and Three Jade intersect in the center, forming a combination of "Green Wind Demon" and "Lian Zhen", which mainly relates to disputes, lawsuits, family disharmony, and liver and gallbladder and foot diseases. It affects the stability of the family's fortune.
Resolution Method: Keep the central area clean and tidy, and do not pile up sundries. You can lay a gray or white carpet here and place a copper gourd to resolve the Fighting Cow evil. Avoid using green or blue decorations.
South (Annual Star Two Black, Monthly Star Seven Red): The Two Black sickness star and the Seven Red destructive star meet, forming an image of "Two-Seven combining to form fire", but in essence, it is still earth and metal generating each other, which promotes disease and gossip, easily causing respiratory system, oral problems, and injuries from metal instruments.
Resolution Method: This direction is not suitable for sitting or lying down for a long time. You can place a pair of copper unicorns or An Ren water to resolve it. Avoid placing plants or dynamic objects (such as fans, televisions).
Overall Precautions for This Month
- Avoid Construction: This month, the West and the Central Palace are the most heavily affected by annual and monthly evil energy. It is absolutely forbidden to carry out renovation, construction, or drilling walls, otherwise, it is very easy to attract evil spirits and bring disasters.
- Pay Attention to Health: Due to the rampant spread of the two major sickness stars, Two Black and Five Yellow, this month you need to pay special attention to the health of the elderly and children in the family, especially problems with the digestive and respiratory systems.
- Be Cautious in Words and Deeds: The Three Jade dispute star enters the central palace, and its influence spreads throughout the house. This month, it is easy to have quarrels and disputes with others. You should keep a low profile in work and life and avoid conflicts with others.
- Seize the Opportunities: Actively use the auspicious directions such as the East, Southwest, and Northwest, and place commonly used furniture such as desks, beds, and sofas in these areas, which will help absorb auspicious energy and improve your fortune.
Feng shui turns in cycles. Understanding and adapting to the energy changes of each month is our wisdom to seek good fortune and avoid misfortune and improve our quality of life. I hope the above analysis can provide you with useful references for your home life and career development in July 2026.
