You will then also know that, where we may rely on a formula to find annual Stars, there does not seem to be a clear cut formula by which to obtain monthly Stars. This article finally offers a short-cut to find the month Stars. Finally, because most may still be carrying around a table for monthly Stars such as the one shown here, or they will have commited the table to memory, which is fine but I will try make this into a much smoother endeavor. This table for month Stars first assumes that you know your annual Star. Your annual Star can be then located in the top row in either of the columns showing Stars 1,4,7 - 2,5,8 or 3,6,9. If you refer column belonging to your annual Star with your month of birth this will then give your Nine Star Ki month (second) Star. Of course you need to still check exactly in which Solar month you are born according to the Qi (Ki), because you may need to assume the Star of the previous month if you are born between the first up to the ninth of a month: find table at the end). Example birthdate: born March 1973. Nine Star Ki annual Star is 9 Fire, which you locate in the second column (3,6,9). Go down until you find March: month Star 4. Finding Your Second Star To find your month Star you need your annual (first) Star. When this first Star is either 1, 4, or 7 check the second column. When your first Star is either 3, 6, or 9 check the third column. When your first Star is either 2, 5, of 8 check the last column. Go to the column that hosts your first Star and look up your month of birth. Cross column and row to find your second (or ‘Child’) Star. Months February March April May June July August September October November December January Locate your annual and month Star here 1, 4, 7 3, 6, 9 2, 5, 8 8 7 6 5 4 3 2 1 9 8 7 6 5 4 3 2 1 9 8 7 6 5 4 3 2 1 9 8 7 6 5 4 3 2 1 9 Unlike for annual Stars, there seems to have been no formula to calculate monthly Stars, i.e. not that I know of. Not satisfied with this, I once asked a mathematician to find a month formula, but he came back with a neat formula, but one that was more complicated than perhaps anything combined so far. If you are aware of any month formula, please contact me so that future readers may benefit. So, at long last I then found my own ‘trick song’ that I want you to have – as well as a tiny calculation that you will find here also - because it will help you get rid of the month table altogether. Then, we will also show you how to work with monthly Stars using your fingers and how you can use your fingers to locate the Earthly Branches, more popularily the Chinese zodiac signs (also known as animals), and how to project the Luoshu on your fingers. On account of locating Branches on your hand, we are aware that there are more formal formats, but the one proposed here is for sake of simplicity. * To obtain formulae and your three personal Stars go to: 9 Star Divination – personal and global events. Bigger and smaller bucket Since any cycle of month Stars relies on and lies within a cycle of year Stars (earth orbit around the sun) and any cycle of hour Stars lies within a cycle of day Stars (earth’s rotation along its own axis), you can see from the table that February will be always either 8 Earth, 2 Earth or 5 Earth, depending on the annual Star. You will also note Earth Stars for May, August and November. Earth Stars start a ‘season’ and be governing the digestive system and later on in the article we hope to then also share with you what must be one of lost applications for these Earth months. You will further note affinity between Stars 1,4,7 – 2,5,8 and 3,6,9. Popularily, if you are a sports instructor and you want to divide your team of nine players into three smaller teams you would ask numbers 1,2 and 3 to step forward and then ask number 4 to join number 1, you would ask number 5 to join number 2 and so on until you have your three sub-groups. In other words, certain months form a smaller Qi cycle of affinity within a larger year cycle of related Qi, or we say, Stars may either belong to the Upper-, the Middle- or the Lower cycle. Thus, if we want to determine Nine Star Ki month Stars, we relate to the Nine Star Ki year Star. Each of the 9 Stars – Jiǔ Xīng 九星 - links to one of the Five Transformations - Wǔ Xíng 五行 - phases. Stars 1, 4 and 7 are master of their respective cycles.

We will show this diagram a little further down, by which you will see how the monthly Stars table used here is in fact a spiral and you will once more appreciate how Nine Star Ki time cycles eventually coincide with Chinese time cycles. Why start this table in February, rather than have this table start with January? The month of January may carry significance in Gregorian timing and calendric principles, as well as for our times January may contain the all important event of Perihelion (earth’s closest approach to the sun on its annual orbit) but it is to again signify how the month of February starts a Solar year in our Qi studies. Chinese calendric timing is based in the 24 Solar Terms, dividing a year into 24 units of 15 days approximately, such that a year be defined to start when the sun reaches 15 degrees into the zodiac sign of Aquarius (February), just as each month will start when the sun reaches 15 degrees into its respective zodiac sign. This is why for the start of Solar months, you need use the table at the end of this article. 7 – 2. or they may be making a phone call. Here then is the rhyme.7 – 2. this may help.4.6.7 – 2. .3 to read 1.which by itself is not too complicated to memorize even.

Let me suggest this definition for Man Qi. it is clear that some Westerners think and live more ‘Oriental’ than most Asians still would and how many people from the East adopted ‘Western’ type of thinking. you could broaden your studies into this direction and read about Traditional Chinese Medicine. Nowadays both Westerners and Asians* may perhaps smile and nod their heads over anecdotes such as where a zen master in his last days selects a successor. or how an apprentice was required to stick with the master for fifteen years or longer. but which would be then yet a smaller bucket. while the biological-physiological component of our studies becomes apparent even from tables such as the one shared further down.

It would be better to abandon terms such as Eastern and Western and replace it by dualistic thinking and monistic thinking. ‘study’. we would come across such explanations as ‘luck’. practitioners of Zen just only sitting on a cushion. so to speak. which statements we may consider. where Heaven and Earth are defined. therefore it could hint towards proper diet and activity.
