What is so different about 9 Star Ki Astrology as opposed to others?
It is probably the oldest form of astrology and the astrological counterpart to the practice of Feng Shui. You are reminded that as a human being, you are part of nature and that it is of utmost importance that you learn to direct your movements so that they are in harmony with nature and not in conflict with it.
9 Star Ki assumes that there is a universal “Ki-energy” that originates in the cosmos and has two basic natures. One that emanates from the “earth” and gives rise to landscape, water and soil, and another that comes from “heaven” and determines seasons and climate.
It is believed that changes within these cycles have an impact on the year we were born and the year we are currently in. It is believed that this universal “Ki-energy” is filtered through nine stars – hence 9 Star Ki.
9 Star Ki Astrology is used to understand and define your personality, relationships, proclivities, and real-life potentials, as well as to predict the future and advise you on the proper course of action in all areas of your life.
You are assigned three Star energies !
In the 9-star Ki, three stars are assigned to you at birth. These star energies give you different characteristics and traits. This system of astrology is based on the influence of a perceived nine-year cycle.
- First Star Ki: The first Star Ki energy represents your fundamental personality traits throughout your life and relates to your natal year. It is the essence of “Who you are meant to be” – what your potentials and weaknesses are, what you are supposed to live up to!
- Second Star Ki: This number is drawn from your birth month and represents your childhood and the patterns that were formed during that time. Therefore, it determines how you interact with your environment, especially under pressure. It is the driving force behind your personality.
- Third Star Ki: The number is known as your energetic number. It expresses the way how you are perceived by the world, how you appear to others. It can reveal habits and behavioral tendencies.
These three numbers combine to give a unique perspective on yourself.
Once you figured out your three Star Ki energies, you can begin to improve your life by taking advantage of the nine-year and nine-month Star Ki cycles.
Yin & Yang
In 9 Star KI astrology, the qualities of yin & yang lie behind the understanding of the cycles of change we go through in life.
The nature of yang is to descend from heaven to earth, while the natural tendency of yin is to ascend and return to heaven.
It describes the opposite yet complementary nature of Ki energy, which is believed to be behind every manifestation in nature – the creation of structures, actions, seasons, emotions and movement.
The Five transformation Stages / elements
A deeper look at Yin & Yang includes the stages of transformation (elements) that occur during a cycle.
The ascending (Yin) cycle was given the element “Tree”, while the upper and outward part of the cycle was assigned the element of “Fire”. The descending quarter of the cycle was given the contacting element of “Metal”, and finally the lower and resting part of the cycle was assigned the the element of “Water”.
Although these stages can be seen as representing the four seasons, a fifth stage was seen as the pivotal point for all stages or seasons. It was given a unique position at the center of the cycle. As each transformation moved into the next, it passed through the “Soil” stage.
The earth stage was understood to be the nuclear phase between seasons, when weather and climate could easily return to the previous season for a few days.
Each of these transformations relates to the nine principal Star energies that we use in 9 star Ki astrology.
I Ching or the Book of Changes
The I Ching is one of the oldest books in the world and it was used as an oracle.
The book is based on eight basic structures called trigrams, which include the elements of yin and yang. The diviner’s task was to interpret combinations of these trigrams.
In 9 Star Ki astrology, the eight trigrams represent the eight traditional members of the family;
father, mother, eldest son, eldest daughter, middle son, middle daughter, youngest son & youngest daughter.
However, the gender is irrelevant. The information drawn from the trigrams, together with the transformational stage helps to determine the character of the nine star energies.
