Impact of travelling

       Because directionology is about my alignment with the earth magnetic force, it is only natural that a permanent move will have more impact, than a short trip into town. If you have to make a trip into a harmful direction and you are planning a prolongued stay in your destination, it is advised to travel halfway and remain there for 49 days. Let us again use the example of the North. As you remember, you are advised to travel into the Northwest first and then proceed your journey into the Northeast. In between, and before you proceed, you will take a 49 days rest to adjust.

       We see this figure of 49 re-occur in all kinds of Qi studies. In Xuan Kong Feng Shui an important technique is used in which the roof of a house is removed in order for the house to adopt a new horoscope. Some say the roof must come off at least 24 hours, before a new flying star chart for the house is justified, others mention days, weeks or months even. Re-occuring here also is a time period of 49 days.

       Because the ancients well understood that our personal Qi has to be in alignment with the earth magnetic force and because they knew the deciding link between Heaven and Earth Qi and Man Qi was food, I believe the 49 days are likely to be pointing to some biological-physiological reality. Our blood, for instance, totally renews itself each 30 days, so after 49 days, surely our whole system should have had sufficient time to adapt to any new environment.

       It is only natural that the House of the Magic Square that you find your Number in for the year is much more influencial than the House that your Number will be in for a month or day. Keeping with the big picture, you would probably not rely on the day Number for permanent decisions. Please understand, however, that the Annual stars are quite powerful, but that this does not mean at all that day or hour Numbers are without impact. Also day and hour Numbers can trigger great effect and can cause events to happen, because any Qi you are moving into or away from will also impact your temperament and decisions.

       Without conceptualizing Qi and certainly without quantifying Qi – because naturally this cannot be done -, we can try to determine our do’s and do not’s for initiative by estimating the probable intensity and impact of year-, month- or day Numbers.

Use Year Number for permanent movement.
Use Month Number for shorter movement.
Use Day Number for impulsive movement.

       Impulsive movement may mean many things, it applies to sudden opportunity, helping or at least not stagnating a greater goal. It can be a telephone call you make. Please, do understand that day Numbers can have permanent impact.

       This square shows a 6 Metal day in a 7 Metal month in a 9 Fire year. Look at where the 5’s are: Annual 5 in North, Monthly 5 in East, Daily 5 in Southeast.

       Suppose you want to plan a trip or any other initiative on this day. If you are moving over greater distance and you are planning to stay at your destination for a prolongued time, then you will best not decide to move into the North (directly). You will also not do so if you want to have something done in the North and you want for this initiative to be successful and lasting over a longer period of time.

       You also like to avoid travelling East, because Number 5 is in the East for the month and pretty influencial. Although you will be probably facing some difficulty, if you have to, you could decide to move into the Southeast, as long as you take precautions and anticipate on possible problems prior to your action.

       The effect of travelling towards or away from the 5 may be the most long lasting, also if you decide to start any project that you would like to survive for longer times, you like to avoid challenging the 5, like when you start a relationship, a business, moving your home.

       Directionology is fun and should be nothing more than that. It is a tool that helps us realize that we have free choice at all times and that we have control over the 5 transformations and yin and yang and the energies surrounding us.

       The ultimate goal of our knowledge of directions should be that we truly feel free to travel into whichever direction without fear, choosing success if you want to, choosing problems if you want to.

       Remember we use a compass in directionology and the purpose of a compass is to have you on your feet and moving, not remaining in one location out of fear.

       If your personal Qi – organs, body functions, meridians, chakras, emotional condition – is harmonious, you will be able to adapt yourself to any energy. When you are seriously tired or experienced significant Qi imbalance, even your best direction may give you some difficulty.
