Dealing
with jetlag
Much can be said about jetlag. Jetlag occurs when we travel
over a great distance at enormous speed. Here, no opportunity
is left for our body to adapt.
One
particular explanation I picked up along the way is that,
whenever I am jetlagged it means that my body has arrived
but my soul did not. My soul is not catching up, so to speak,
and so jetlag is a type of dissociation. One of the ‘cures’
to do on arrival is to position my solar plexus into the direction
of origin and rub and massage my head and crown chakra while
calling out my name aloud a few times. Be sure no-one is around
when you do this.
Chinese
zodiac directionology
You
may want to combine Nine Star Ki directionology with techniques
used in Chinese astrology.
Twelve
Earthly Branches
Here
are the Twelve Earthly Branches, commonly known as the 12
animal signs of the Chinese zodiac. Each Earthly Branch is
assigned 30 degrees over the chinese compass or Luo Pan. A
person born in the year of the Rat will have most affinity
with Qi from the North. Qi from the South may not be looked
upon as hostile to Rat, but it is the least auspicious Qi.
The South has a different ‘agenda’ than the North. Rat has
most affinity with Dragon and Monkey. You may wish to extend
this example to your own year Branch and count away four signs
from your own sign to find your affinity signs and six Branches
away from your own sigh to find the energy frequency that
is least auspicious to you.
Here
I projected the octagon sometimes used in Japanese Nine Star
Ki within the Chinese compass, or Luo Pan. The Chinese Ba
gua – or octagon – shows eight directions of 45 degrees each,
whereas the Japanese version may show 30 degrees in the cardinal
direction to include one Chinese zodiac sign and 60 degrees
in the secondary directions to include two Chinese zodiac
signs. There is no difference however in the actual degrees
the signs cover over the compass, as both the Chinese and
Japanese versions use 30 degrees for each Chinese zodiac sign.

Cosmograph
and Jupiter
The
earth’s rotation causes for 12 distinguishable energies to
surface from different directions. To link these energies
to certain planets the ancient Chinese first designed the
cosmograph. The cosmograph dates from the Former Han dynasty,
and can be considered the grandfather of the later Chinese
compass or Luo Pan.
It
shows the coupled rotatable Heaven plate and the fixed Earth
plate we still find on the Luo Pan and it was a rather more
astrological than astronomical device for observing the skies
and in particular the journey of Jupiter. It also followed
the great Dipper through the 28 Lunar lodges, but its main
purpose was maybe to chart the motion of Jupiter.
Several
techniques for positioning and directionology were adopted
by the San Yuan Feng Shui school from the San He Feng Shui
system during late Ming Dynasty. One is Tai Sui or Grand Duke
of Jupiter.
Jupiter
is the Wood Star or sometimes called Sui Xing. It travels
anti-clockwise along the Luo Pan, and progresses from Rat,
Pig, Dog, Rooster etc. or North, Northwest, West respectively.
This route of Jupiter cannot be observed from the earth, so
a contra-Jupiter by name of Tai Sui was invented to determine
Jupiter’s position.
Tai
Sui travels in a clockwise direction along the Luo Pan and
this path was followed on the cosmograph. It progresses from
Rat, Ox, Tiger, Rabbit etc. or North, Northeast, East respectively.
Tai
Sui occupies the exact Branch of the year, its harmful influence
covering the entire 30° of a Branch. Therefore, Tai Sui occupies
the East in 1999, the year of the Rabbit. It will occupy the
South in 2002, in the year of the Horse.
Tai
Sui is an unfavourable direction to sit in of travel into,
however it is less detrimental to sit with your back towards
Tai Sui than it is to face Tai Sui. In itself, Tai Sui is
not powerful to be harmful. It needs some action to be annoyed.
So, it is advised not to ‘break the ground’ or have renovations
done into the Tai Sui direction.
Miscellaneous
Directionology
is not at all limited to actual travelling, or you facing
or not facing a certain direction while awake or asleep. Directionology
is the understanding that we are moving Qi the moment we seperate
two phenomena that had been closely linked together and that
we are moving Qi when one phenomenon is introduced to join
another phenomenon. The moment we change Qi by our action,
we are executing directionology, like when we move residence,
take a trip, build a wall. Constructing a wall means you are
playing with and changing Qi flow.
Directionology
is planning of Time, Space and Action or: “Doing the right
thing at the right Time and Place”. Doing the right thing
at the right time and place and in the right spirit, is the
ultimate performance of directionology.
-
Directionology is also noticing why a particular person (Nine
Star Ki Number) called you on that particular day.
- Directionology tells you whom to contact or whom to avoid
contact with for certain directions or times.
- Directionology is knowing how to build a team around your
choice of people.
- Directionology is knowing how to plan time, space and
action to reach a desired future goal.
- In Feng Shui, directionology furthermore means, the
direction your house is facing, location and direction of
your main entryway and interior doors, like that of master
bedroom.
- Also in Feng Shui, directionology means location, direction
and time of placement of any items.
- Directionology is knowing how to activate or re-activate,
direct or re-direct Qi in built structures according to the
basic rules of Qi flow: strengthening cycle, controlling
cycle etc., and how to make the best use of this in diet,
acupunture and other systems for physical and emotional
health.
- If you choose not to travel in the opposite direction of
5,
but you call someone who’s Number is opposite the 5 in the
Luo Shu, you may be considered to be travelling opposite
the 5 and it may be difficult to deal with this person.
Ultimate
directionology comes from our memory. Memory does not just
mean you remember anything from the past, because time is
not linear. Cosmic memory means, you remember your future.
Where did I come from and where am I going. Finding, planning
and executing your – and perhaps other’s - Ultimate Life Dream
is the main issue in any type of directionology.
Directionology
is based on a firm understanding of ‘who I am’, ‘who you are’
and ‘where we are’. I have a territory that I can call mine.
No-one is allowed into my territory without my consent and
no-one is allowed to desintegrate my physical, emotional or
spiritual integrity. Likewise, I will not desintegrate your
integrity, nor will I desintegrate the Earth’s integrity.
This way, Qi between people is emitted freely.
The
Aboriginals have a saying: ‘The Earth does not belong to us,
we belong to the Earth’. Supreme directionology is the understanding
that the planet is our mother, the sun our father. Whatever
the planet brings forth, is the Earth’s fruit, including peoples
and their resources. We cannot continue to rape our mother,
her children, her resources.
