One of my Chinese Horoscope clients asked me the following question:
What is the difference between professional Chinese Astrology Predictions and fortune telling?
I thought it was worth answering it in the form of a research and a practical example.
I wish to debunk an old myth.
There is a big difference between predictions and fortune tellings. Over the years, I have been following Master Chan’s yearly predictions. I experienced that the predictions are not like fortune telling just the opposite.
What is fortune telling?
Fortune-telling is the practice of fortelling an event in a person’s life. The term fortune-telling implies a less serious setting, even one of popular culture, where there is a belief in occult workings of mysterious forces over the individual’s life. The individual has no responsibility or freedom to act against those forces.
How do Chinese astrological predictions differ?
Personal predictions
Master Chan’s immense knowledge is how to do personal predictions in the right form. So they are like suggestions of spiritual or practical advisory art considering the BA ZI , the Yearly Life House method of the individual. We are able to benefit from the ancient skill of Predictions practiced in the Imperial Court of China since Great Grandmaster Chue Yuen entrusted these secrets to our Grand Master Chan.
Global predictions
By using different methods Grand Master Chan is able to predict forthcoming events in the financial, political field for the whole globe. Just as well for personal relationships and human behavior or global weather changes for the year. These methods include the 24 Heaven Stars method with the Jee Ba Flying Star method, the Ba Zi and the Yearly Life House analysis, the Chue Yik and the month-by-month method of Prediction using the I Ching 6 Kinships Hexagrams.
What is the purpose of the yearly personal prediction?
I was able to make an important life decision based upon the analysis of my yearly prediction. So I could decide if the year and any month of the year in question was auspicious for the life decision or not. It helped me in the Tai Soy year to be aware how to organize my yearly plans to avoid a bad luck.
This kind of prediction could help my family members and friends as well to make the right choice of action to avoid bad fortune while travelling or planning to get married and by family planning.
In my circle of friends and family relations there are examples of happy marriages and childbirth according to the individual prediction advice I gave them.
Examples of predictions of forthcoming events in 2016 Fire Monkey year
What is the quality of the Fire Monkey energy?
The energy of the Fire Monkey year is characterized by speed, constant mobility and hyperactivity. Have you heard of Monkey business? Changing all the time?
This year of the Fire Monkey brought us the Fire Monkey month in the lunar calendar as well! So the fiery energy affected all of us with double power. The Fire symbolizes the spirituality, which is positive, but the fast-moving energy as well the Monkey. Therefore the danger is to experience reckless and very quick decisions or emotions in human relationships as well as in politics.
Sudden changes in human relationships and in politics
Fire Yang which represents also joy, passion, but it can mean vehemence, impulsiveness. In Western astrology the planet ruling this year is Mars planet of warfare in ancient Roman mythology.
So it is not surprising that intense emotions and sudden changes in human relations can happen. For example, Ozzy Osbourne (British singer) and Sharon Osbourne (British television host) announced in May that they will divorce after 33 years of marriage.
Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt also announced their split after 12 years together on 15th September.
The people of Great Britain is voted for Brexit.
Split between UK and EU Countries.
Case study example of Tai Soy Year
My research is ongoing in this deep subject as there is so much hidden information to be learned from the yearly Chue style predictions.
The article published in the in Lap Chun 2016 newsletter is an example for my one of the research subjects related to predictions and specially to Tai Soy Years . The article analyses Sir Richard Branson’s BA ZI and his personal luck chances in 2016 in his Tai Soy year.
It was a reminder for Richard Branson who loves adventure to be careful and be less adventurous. Especially in August, the Fire Monkey month of the Fire monkey year.
Sir Richard Branson’s Life Philosophy
“My interest in life comes from setting myself huge, apparently unachievable challenges and trying to rise above them … from the perspective of wanting to live life to the full, I felt that I had to attempt it.” – Sir Richard Branson
Prediction for 2016 regarding Sir Richard’s upcoming Tai Soy year
2016 is his Tai Soi year, because he has double Tiger in his horoscope. How does it relate to the Monkey year? The Monkey and the Tiger are in opposition to each other. These are polarized souls exactly in opposition. The Monkey in opposition to the Tiger means dangers, mishaps or calamities to the Tiger. As it was shown above in 2011 and in 2012, the Monkey months did not bring Sir Richard any good luck.
It was advised for Sir Richard to be extremely careful in his manners, avoid adventurous behavior in the Fire Monkey month between 8th August 2016 and 8th September 2016 and also to wear red color and protective stones all year around.
What happened to Sir Richard in the Fire monkey month 2016?
Sir Richard published an article on www.virgin.com about his “unfortunate adventure” on Gorda Virgin Island 24th August 2016. The article “MY LIFE FLASHED BEFORE MY EYES” describes his accident that almost cost his life. It happened to be of the 5th anniversary of the fire on Necker Island where his multimillion Great Mansion burned down.
So it is easy to understand the benefits of the yearly predictions from the above examples.
But it is not enough to understand the teachings only!
There is freedom of choice for action and it is the person’s responsibility to follow the advice in the prediction. It is his/her responsibility to recognize the wrong track of habits or behavior and change them.
