The 9 Purple (fire) star enters the West (metal) this year. The 9 is also known as the Growth Star because of it’s expansive nature. It is a very large character in the pantheon of Stars, and it encourages growth and happiness.

The 9 Purple Star has an expansive character. It supports achievement, growth, overall happiness, and success. It’s one of the four favorable/auspicious Stars and like the Fire element it represents, it can set things ablaze! The areas that would benefit from this Star are the main entry, the office or workroom, or any place where you want additional support and growth.

This Fire Star enters the Tui metal sector this year which is oppositional, according to the I Ching. But from the disorder of opposition can come order. This is observed in natural creation: male & female, sky and earth, etc. The path between yin and yang is where we try to reconcile both poles. Small steps and compromise will yield better results than advancing like a tank.

Take precautions if the Purple Star is in the kitchen, since the Fire Element in kitchens (cook-stove) can be a source of unintentional fires. Also, if a person suffers from emotional/mental disorders or has a tendency for violence, this Fire star is too much Yang energy in a bedroom. The 9 Purple Star also energizes the other stars in the natal chart, making the good ones better but the unfavorable ones even worse. It’s important to be judicious with the 9 Purple, so employing the service of a Feng Shui professional would be advisable.
