Understanding the Energies of Flying Stars in Feng Shui
Flying Stars Feng Shui evaluates the dynamic energy influences present in a space, both permanent (Base Star, Mountain Star, and Water Star) and temporary (Annual and Monthly Stars). Among these, Annual Star 5, associated with the Earth element and influenced by Fire characteristics, is considered the most dangerous. Think of volcanic lava: unpredictable, volatile, and best avoided.
The Essence of Flying Stars in Feng Shui
In Feng Shui, the term "stars" refers to various manifestations of Qi energy, categorized by specific attributes based on Yin and Yang principles. These stars symbolize the interplay of energies, with both positive and negative impacts. Soon, we will provide a detailed article explaining the attributes of these stars comprehensively.

Star 5’s Dual Role in Your Space
Star 5 appears in every home or office as both the Mountain Star and Water Star. In rare cases, these two manifestations of Star 5 occupy the same sector, creating a perilous and persistent energetic influence.
Unlike other stars, Star 5 cannot be effectively neutralized using conventional Feng Shui remedies such as metal objects. The best approach is to avoid activity, clutter, or intense movement in the affected sector. External Sha Qi forms can further amplify the negative energy, intensifying challenges. Additionally, Annual Star 5 should be avoided for renovations or furniture rearrangements.
In the Year of the Wood Snake (beginning February 3, 2025), Annual Star 5 will dominate the Northeast sector. The opening month of this year will also feature Monthly Star 5 in the same area, creating a highly charged atmosphere prone to disruptions and challenges that may lead to significant changes in life.
Key Dates and Energy Movements
The following image illustrates the positioning of the Annual, Monthly, and Daily Stars on February 28, 2025. The Annual Stars will remain fixed until February 4, 2026. Monthly Stars will shift to new positions on March 3. As for Daily Stars, their effects are too short-lived to fully manifest their energy.

The Impact of Star 5 Combinations in Feng Shui
What Is Star 5?
Star #5, known as Wu Ji (the "Star of Catastrophe"), belongs to the Earth element and is considered the most harmful among the nine Flying Stars. Its threatening, aggressive energy is likened to a volatile force capable of causing catastrophic financial losses, severe illnesses, and misfortune. However, in rare circumstances, it may provide support for high-powered leaders, enhancing authority and influence.
The Dreaded 5-5 Combination
When two Star 5 energies ("The Malevolent Yellow Star") combine, the effects are profoundly destructive. While not linked to a specific hexagram, this combination is the most detrimental of all. Extreme caution and swift intervention are essential to mitigate its impact, as it can lead to chronic diseases, prolonged illnesses (lasting over a year), severe injuries, internal hemorrhages, and persistent anxiety or insomnia.
Effects of the 5-5 Combination on Daily Life
Health:
- May cause severe health problems, including cancer, poisoning, or chronic conditions.
- Significant risk for pregnant women and individuals with pre-existing health issues residing in affected sectors.
Family and Relationships:
- Persistent tension and frequent disagreements within the family.
- Lack of harmony can escalate conflicts or even lead to relationship breakdowns.
Career:
- Workplace politics may become a significant source of stress.
- Avoid conflicts and maintain professional, cordial relationships.
Finances:
- Increased risk of financial losses. Avoid large investments and review all decisions carefully.
- Steer clear of lending or borrowing money during this period.
Business:
- Heightened competition and challenges in maintaining customer loyalty.
- Exercise caution in negotiations to avoid hidden agendas.
Travel:
- Potential disputes or misunderstandings may disrupt travel plans. Ensure thorough preparation beforehand.
Academic Performance:
- Academic results may fall short of expectations, impacting future goals.
- Persistence and support from peers are crucial.
Legal Matters:
- Complex legal issues may arise, requiring heightened vigilance and thorough preparation to avoid pitfalls.
Prevention and Remedies
- Avoid spending too much time in the areas of your home affected by the 5-5 combination.
- Properly prepare for the arrival of Star 5 in this sector: tidy and clean the NE sector and carry out any necessary repairs before February 3rd. If this is not possible, wait until next year, or, if this is not feasible, at least wait until February has passed and March 3rd arrives when the collateral damage will be less significant.
- Identify whether there are Sha Qi elements outside your home, such as electric poles, chimneys, or aggressive corners pointing towards this sector. If these elements are present, it is recommended to consult a specialist to assess the possibility of neutralizing them or, at the very least, cover the window so that they are no longer visible, adhering to the principle: “What is not seen harms you less.”
- Apply appropriate Feng Shui remedies, such as placing solid metal objects to weaken the Earth element.
- Consult a specialist to analyze the layout of your home and implement personalized solutions.
