9 Star Ki

What is the "9 Star Ki"?

Your 9 Star Ki is the often called 'the Feng Shui of your birthdate' or 'Chinese astrology.' Like western astrology or the Ennegram, it gives us a fascinating overview of our personalities, a lens through which we can see aspects of ourselves more clearly.

There are nine possible numbers (they correspond to the nine gua's or areas of the Bagua). Your individual 9 Star Ki consists of three numbers and is based on the year, month and day you were born.

What does the position of the numbers mean?

The position of each number in your Nine Star Ki is important to understand. Each position has an archetype, or meaning. It's easy to grasp if we compare your life to a car.

  • First number = the model car you chose. (The major gifts you took birth to bring the world.)
  • Second number = who is inside, driving the car. This number represents how we were as children and who we become under stress.
  • Third number = how you drive. How you show up for others (at work and home). How you give your gifts to the world.

Each number represents an element and has a yin or a yang quality.

  • Yang = active, dynamic, 'masculine' qualities.
  • Yin = passive, reflective, 'feminine' qualities.

Each element has a specific gift for the world and its challenge:

  • The gift of the water element is being. The challenge is fear, hurt.
  • The gift of the wood element is doing. The challenge is frustration, anger.
  • The gift of the fire element is playing. The challenge is anxiety, scattered.
  • The gift of the earth element is relating, nurturing. The challenge is depletion (2's), excess (5's), or getting stuck (8's).
  • The gift of the metal element is inspiring. The challenge is perfectionism, grief.

How each number manifests in personality:

  1. Yin Water: deep; intuitive; spiritual; good communicators; flexible; sensitive; easily hurt.
  2. Yin Earth: the Mother Archetype; nurturing; caring; easily depleted.
  3. Yang Wood: 'thunder' wood temper; makes things happen; easily frustrated.
  4. Yin Wood: makes things happen, one at a time; inspiring; determined; vulnerable; flexible.
  5. Yin/Yang Earth: Primal Life Force energy; charisma; connects with others; at the center of things.
  6. Yang Metal: Father Archetype; strong will; perfectionist; artistic; responsible.
  7. Yin Metal: caretakers (esp. middle position); perfectionist; reflective; sensitive.
  8. Yang Earth: 'mountain' Rock-of-Gibraltar quality; take the hard road; long view.
  9. Yang Fire: fun; passionate; joyful; vivacious; colorful; in the spotlight; temper.

What would a 9 Star Ki reading do for me?

Your personalized 9 Star Ki Guide will detail your strengths, your challenges, health recommendations, what you need to do to stay in balance, and specific feng shui recommendations for your space.

How much does it cost?

I charge $100 an hour for a one hour session, $50 for a half hour session.

I want to understand myself better. How do I arrange a 9 Star Ki reading?

To do a 9 Star Ki consultation, I need the names and birthdates of everyone living in the home, and a floor plan of the space (it can be hand drawn). After doing research, I will mail or email you a booklet describing each person, their strengths, weaknesses, dietary recommendations, and feng shui recommendations.

We will set up a phone consultation to talk about how to create unity and harmony in the space, between family members, and how to bring each person into balance.
