Our bedroom facts:

1. at NW sector

2. No building/houses next to it, at least not within 125 feet. There is a slight elevation close to our lot but between the houses that are 125 feet away and our bedroom. There are small rocks at exterior NW with some pine trees (fire) and maple trees (don't know what element is maple)

3. Mountain Star 5, Water Star 2, Base/Time/Ruling Star 9, Yearly Star 7, Monthly Star 4 (March).

4. The HeTu 2 and 7 make fire, which activate earth

5. My husband Kua number 8, mine 3.

6. Although it wouldn't be too bad for my husband's 8 kua number with 5 or 2, I was using more metal to countermeasure the excess earth of yellow 5 and sickness Last year for me who felt tired all the time. NW in a metal area; it has metal already. It might be too much metal, especially for this year. This year I have been debating myself whether or not to take some metal away because all the metal element I put it in the bedroom would strengthen the potential robbery 7 annual star. The best to do it is using water element to balance earth, metal, and water better. However, I cannot use water element in a bedroom. I could use the water associated COLORS or shape to balance a little. However, since colors and shapes are not as effective as the real water, I have not done so.

Please advise. Thanks

Hi chueh,

In my opinion you need to first determine (using Purple-White Script) whether this sector is auspicious, inauspicious or mixed. You want to be able to evaluate the strength and attitude of that 5Mountain.

You also should look carefully at the 8 pie chart of the house to determine if the room is entirely within NW or whether other sectors have a role. Especially at the door.

These two pieces of information may give you better understanding of the qi at work here.

Now my first thought would be that if you two are getting ill in this 5mountain room you need to change rooms (I know that may be awkward, but it is the one cure guaranteed to work)
Adding metal to the NW is a little pointless as the NW is where the 6 resides. Now there is the annual 7 as well. Weakening the 5 with metal is not a goal.

A different approach might be to look for the 8mountain or 9mountain in the house and see how you can support them (assuming that they are located where they can be useful)

Yet another approach is to analyze how and who the 5mountain in the NW might affect and take life style measures to support that person's health.

A third idea is to look to your bazi(s) and see whether (and what) health issues suggest themselves. If this is a strong time for good health then the house will not have much effect.

Good luck

Thank you Devadog. All you said are good points. I will look into them. Thanks bunch

Chueh, some more thoughts:

The 7 star cannot do much without appropriate qi to support it. So without a 7 mountain form outside it is not really going to promote robbery. A more generic metal form outside to the NW would support 6 not 7.

Why water? There doesn't seem to be any here to balance. And wouldn't it weaken metal and aggravate Earth?

Now the big question: if you are already living in this room, have you or your husband seen any evidence of unusual illness associated with NW or possibly the 2? If not then why drive yourself nuts with "curing" something?
