JANUARY 2025, FENG SHUI FLYING STARS & CHINESE ASTROLOGY FORECAST
Welcome to the Final Month of the Year of the Dragon!
What a dynamic and eventful month we have ahead!
It’s a Yin Fire on an Earth ox month beginning 5th January at 10:35am.
It’s fascinating to note that the month begins on a Yang Wood day paired with an Earth Dog, while the year is Yang Wood on an Earth Dragon—a powerful clash of energies. Yang Wood is the head symbolizes leadership, governance, and authority, while the Dog and Dragon represent opposing forces. This cosmic alignment mirrors significant political transitions, particularly in the United States, where the inauguration of the 47th President, Donald Trump, takes place on January 20, 2025. Let’s hope for a peaceful transfer of power amidst recent unsettling events, including the Tesla CyberTracker explosion outside Trump International Hotel in Las Vegas and the tragic incident in Texas that claimed 15 lives. Prayers go to all those affected.
Globally, other leaders, including those in Canada and France, may find their positions challenged, as the clash energy manifests prominently in political arenas.
Adding to the intensity, the monthly flying stars align with the yearly stars, amplifying their energies. Each sector is strengthened this month, but certain areas demand extra attention. The central energy Star #3 (wood) signifies thunderstorms, hurricanes, and strong winds, and given our Period 9 fire element cycle (2024–2044), the combined wood energies of the month and year could fuel fires, explosions, and volcanic eruptions which is relevant with the Yin fire energy of the month. Yin fire is like a candle which can be fickle and explosive at the same time, like a spark can ignite a bush fire.
Pay special attention to the Southeast, West, Center, and South sectors of your home, particularly if these areas are under renovation, house your front door, or contain your bedroom. It’s crucial to keep these spaces calm this month.
Looking ahead, the Year of the Wood Snake slithers in on February 3, 2025, promising transformation and renewal as the Snake sheds its skin.

Nobleman Month-
Nobleman is described as ‘helpful people’. This month the Ox brings a Nobleman to people born
- Day of Yang Metal, Yang Metal & Yang Earth
- Years ending in a 0, 4 & 8.
Clash Animal
The Ox & Goat are a Clash in Chinese Astrology. If you have a Horse in your chart then you are in Clash with the month, it can fall in the:
– Day you are born,
-Month (6/7 June to 7/8 August).
– Hour (between 1 pm- 3 pm) and,
– Years 1943, 1955, 1967, 1979, 1991, 2003, 2015.
It is recommended that you take extra care this month and carry the charm of a Rat as it is friends with the Ox in Chinese Astrology.
If you have Yin Water in your Chinese Astrology Chart, you are in Clash with the Yin Fire of this month. This is especially significant if you were born on a Yin Water day. Depending on whether Yin Fire is favourable or not, this Clash can be positive, activating aspects associated with the element. For a deeper understanding, consider booking a Chinese Astrology reading.
Combinations with the Ox
The Ox & Rat are best of friends in Chinese Astrology, therefore, anticipate a smoother month, especially if it’s on the Day you are born.
The Ox combines with the Snake and the Rooster forming a Metal Element Trine combination- what does Metal represent in your chart? Is it money, intelligence, resources, power, or self?
(A Chinese Astrology reading can give you more information. See below for services)
Yin Fire and Yang Water combine with one another to generate more wood.
They have a bond with one another that symbolises unity, partnership and can instigate a relationship. They can also be unavailable to each other in certain circumstance.
Flying Stars January 2025
This month the stars are amplified as they double up with the yearly stars. This means that all sectors are strengthened by the monthly energies. The sectors to pay particular attention as they come with challenges to are the Southeast, West , Centre, and the South.
The prosperous sectors this month are the Southwest & East.
SOUTHEAST –representing ill- health & fertility- 6 coins are recommended as a cure for this direction. Take care of your health this month/year and build up your immune system with antioxidants.
WEST –represents difficulty, obstacles & destructive energy- 6 metal bells, or a 6-metal piped wind chime is recommended to disperse negative energy.
The West is also western countries or state like Western Australia, USA, western Europe, etc.
CENTRE- The Star #3 is related to conflict, fighting, & robbery, avoid any serious conversations in the centre sector this month. We will see more activity and fighting in the central countries as well, especially in the middle east. Let’s pray this fighting ends soon.
SOUTH– The Star #7 (Metal) is associated with financial loss, robbery, theft, betrayal, violence and as it teams up with the annual Star 7.
NORHTEAST- the Star 6 (metal) representing law, governments, military, CEOs, and the father trigram. We may see power shifts in government or military action with countries or states that sit in the NE of the world this month.
EAST- the Star 1 brings prosperity and promotions in the east.
SOUTHWEST- the Star 9 multiplies in the SW this month bringing wealth and prosperity.
On a global scale the countries that lie in the Southeast, West , Centre, and the South of a country/state can anticipate unrest and/or natural disasters.
Take extra care if these energies fall into your bedroom, front door, or kitchen.
AOVID disturbing the land, digging, or renovating these sectors for the month as it can lead to money loss, or misfortune.

Health Tips for January 2025
January is Yin Fire on Earth Ox, Yin Fire is the heart, common related issues are anxiety & palpitations. The Earth Ox is the Belly and the Spleen, which are key to digestion and energy production in TCM. During January, this area may need extra care to prevent imbalances such as bloating, poor appetite, sluggish digestion, low energy, and weight gain.
The combination of Yin Fire and Earth Ox highlights the interplay between emotional well-being and physical digestion. To harmonize these energies, focus on creating balance between heart and spleen health.
Key Tips for January Health
- Stay Grounded: Incorporate routines that promote emotional stability, such as journaling or connecting with nature.
- Support Digestion: Eat mindfully and at regular intervals to support spleen function and reduce digestive strain.
- Manage Stress: Use TCM tools like acupuncture or calming herbal formulas to address both anxiety and digestive discomfort.
- Embrace Warmth: Protect your belly and chest from cold drafts and opt for warming drinks like ginger tea to support your inner fire.
May this month bring your health, harmony, and a strong foundation for the year ahead!
