    WOOD ON TOP OF FIREWith these two elements together,

    below are some of the possiblehighlights of 2014

    1. Growth and innovation

    Yang Wood Jia is the first of the

    ten heavenly stems; it symbolizes

    a new beginning. New innovations

    and breakthrough wi l l be

    introduced in the market.

    2. Excitement everywhere

    The economy and market ingeneral will have more positive

    outlook. People are more in the

    mood of spending, traveling,

    going holidays and having fun

    3. Escalated conflicts

    Due to the clash of Jia Wood and

    horse, the energy is very

    unsettling. Expect bigger conflicts

    everywhere, therefore hold yourtemper and do not act hastily

    4. Respiration diseases at bay

    Strong fire will burn metal, which

    relates to breathing organs. Do

    not forget your flu shots especially

    towards August!

    We have arrived at another horse year! Many people

    would wonder what this year will bring us, is it going to be

    an exciting year full of hope and surprises, or will it be

    another year of conflicts and accidents like the previous

    snake year? How is the market going to behave? What will

    be the lucky elements and directions for 2014? As usual, let

    us do a step by step analysis, starting with the elements of

    the year itself.

    SPECIAL EDITION FENG SHUI YEARLY FORECAST

    2014: yang wood on yang fireAt first glance this seems to be a harmonious year. Wood and fire are

    supporting one another, unlike the water and fire clash in 2013. Indeed,

    the general atmosphere will be somewhat more positive compared to last

    year.

    Yang wood element will kick start the year, together with the spring

    season from February to April 2014. This will be the time of growth, asYang Wood represents a sturdy tree growing tall. Many new businesses

    will thrive and new ideas will grow. After the unstable market condition

    especially at the end of 2013, the spring 2014 will bring new and high

    hopes. We can expect the first half year to be a spur of growths in many

    sectors but as it moves towards mid year, things will start to overheat. By

    the time fire comes and Jia wood is exhausted by fire, new businesses

    and ideas without proper foundation will crumble apart.

    Soon Yang Fire of horse will take over and carry with it a dynamic and

    passionate energy, but also free spirited and rather anxious. This

    contradicts Jia Yang Wood, which is very rigid and conservative. Because

    horse has hidden Yin Earth Ji that form a combination with Yang Wood

    Jia, at first there will be harmony. But soon the clash between the new

    movement against the status quo is unavoidable. Politically things will be

    even more explosive than last year especially after May: wars could be

    inevitable. Horse is also a Peach Blossom star according to Chinese

    Metaphysics, and will bring a strong romantic energy, from weddings to

    scandals. The presence of Jia wood will make fire becomes too strong and

    uncontrollable, hence if fire is your unfavourable element you need to be

    mindful of your luck and health. Expect 2014 to be a year of growth,

    excitement and explosion all in one.

    ICHING DIVINATION OF 2014

    Lesson from this hexagramWaterover thunder, is a very chaotic combination. Imagine sailing

    on a stormy sea! In this condition, the best thing we can do is to steer

    the ship carefully and not to go against the tides movement. At times,

    it is best to just hang on and do nothing at all! Thankfully the

    turbulence will be short-lived, and at the end it will give us a valuable

    learning experience.

    With optimistic market outlook and momentary euphoria at the

    beginning of 2014, many will be prompted to start something new or take their business to another level. Do

    not be hasty, as without a good foundation it can quickly go bust and drain our resources big time! The nature

    of the hexagram also implies that we should also expect temporary stumbling blocks along the way. Choose our

    allies carefully and listen to the advice of trustworthy people/ noblemen to reap our success at the end.

    This hexagram also denotes flexibility and strength. We have to be flexible under though situation, andcourageous enough to let our inner strength shine and take the chance outside of our comfort zone.

    The image of this hexagram depicts a seed

    sprouting, pushing agains the earth. It has been

    sleeping, but when it awakens it has the power to

    split even rocks. The growing seed needs to

    struggle and penetrate upwards through the hard

    soil before it can break free. It is a brief difficulty,

    but one needs to persevere for this is a learning

    curve everyone must experience to grow. The

    process is not without failures, but at the end with

    the right moves and some help one will succeed.

    This hexagram tells us that 2014 is a good year to

    start anew and with fresh mindset, but it also

    reminds us that obstacle is at bay. Everything

    worth doing will always be difficult at the

    beginning.

    TUNDIFFICULTY AT the beginning

    Furthering through perseverance

    Nothing should be undertaken

    It furthers one to appoint helpers

    YEAR OF 2014 - 4 PILLARS OF DESTINY

    4th February 2014, 06.04hr

    We will erect the birthchart of year 2014 using theactual time Li Chun begins, which is 4th February

    2014, at 06.04hr

    Although the lunar new year falls on the 31st January

    2014, the actual energy change will happen a few days

    afterwards according to the Hsia Calendar. From this

    date we will erect the Four Pillars to analyze year

    2014 more in depth

    At first glance, we have a very hot chart! The day stem is Bing, Yang Fire, and the rest of the chart is surrounded

    by wood and fire (with one lonely and under pressure Yin Metal). This chart further elaborates on how 2014 will be

    like - dynamic year full of growth and explosive nature. Fortunately, the season is E3 Yang Wood which is an early

    spring wood; it is still rather cold and wet. This will help balance the heat and make the fire burns steadily, as

    opposed to exploding randomly like firecrackers. H8 metal is also a balancing element, which together with self H3

    can combine into water. This implies that in 2014, more people will prone to exhaust their money for power and

    fame. All in all, wood and fire sectors will dominate the market and face stiff competitions. Sales and marketing in

    general will be tough; you will need to be creative to market your products and services especially if wood / fire is

    your unfavourable element. Metal and earth will be favourable and in demand for 2014, while water sectors will be

    neutral and rather stagnant.

    Forecast of 2014 in:

    politics

    economy

    This years chart will bring much political unrest. The presence of two sword stars in

    the chart denote many clashes between oppositions in many countries, which will

    bring about riots and even civil wars. Authoritative policies will bring aboutaggressions, and many existing conflicts such as in the Middle East will escalate

    further. Western countries such as Europe will continue to be under pressure until at

    least Autumn, while Eastern countries such as China will slowly start losing its power.

    The energy of wood and fire in 2014 will bring some boost of optimism, but it will still

    be unstable and short-lived. Market players will need to be careful of bubble burst

    because of unsustainable growth and impulsive profit taking by investors. Euro and

    US dollars will be stronger but at a too fast pace that some measures will need to be

    taken to cool it down. Chinas economy will be somehow weaker.

    other trades/ industries

    property developments

    stock market

    The property market in Singapore will be quite stagnant due to the cooling measures, but this will create

    more opportunities for those who want to buy or invest Those who want to sell may hold until price is better

    and situation is less competitive.

    Stock markets will be boosted at the beginning of the year with more stimulus and new policies introduced,

    and it may even hit record high by end of Q1. However we need to be careful as during Q1 fire will get too

    strong and it will be very unstable. If you are not a professional trader, best time to trade is during Q1/ early

    Q2, or during your favourable timing/ months.

    Banking and finance belong to metal elements, are still weak but are in demand for

    2014. Wait until August/ September if you want to make significant moves

    Travel, transport, tourism, shipping, logistics and other water related industries will

    also be in demand, although you have to be sharp enough to catch the opportunities

    Oil and gas prices will fluctuate and fare worse than last year

    Entertainment industries and hospitalitywill be very competitive this year

    Natural resourcesand miningwill be good in 2014. Gold prices will be under pressure

    during the first half of the year but will improve quite significantly by mid to end year

    Education, timber, agriculture, fashion and designis of wood nature and will also be

    very competitive this year. If you are in these industries, plan your move carefully. One

    wrong move and your resources can be drained easily.

    Apart from those, overly strong fire energy also bring many fire and hot air related

    disasters such as bush fire, typhoons and other significant environmental damages. It

    also signifies some major air/ sea transport accidents, although not as many as 2013.

    Domestic conflicts will need to be managed as this is a year full of short temper and hot

    in nature. With two peach blossoms stars, there will be double the weddings and

    romance scandals compared to last year! Singles born in the year of Ox, Snake and

    Rooster can expect joyous occasions this year for your romance, but beware of

    complicated relationship if you are attached. If wood and fire are not your favourableelements, pay attention of your house feng shui to minimize financial woes and ill

    health this year.

    Three animal signs in harmony with the horse:

    Ram,Tiger, Dog

    Those who are born in these years, depending on the overall birth chart,

    in general will have a smooth year with helpful people around. However,

    Rat, Horse, Rabbit, Ox (persecuting clashes)If you belong to these animal signs, you may face certain hiccups this

    year, or experience certain changes in some aspects of your life.

    Positively or negatively, again it will depend on your whole birth chart.

    To pacify the kicking horse, you can place a goat

    figurine at South West (203.5- 214.5) in your

    house at the living room. You may also place the

    goat on your office desk.

    3. Auspicious dates to resume business operation in 2014

    I AM BORN IN A

    HORSE YEAR!

    Those born in the year of horse are

    the most energetic, playful and

    passionate people! They are born

    leader and love challenges, but also

    get bored easily. Quick tempered at

    times and impulsive, they can offend

    others due to their loud and honest

    communicating style. However,

    horse people are quick to forget and

    easy to forgive. They make veryloyal friends and companions, and

    sure to brighten up any events you

    invite them to!
