The Rooster month (Sept 8 - Oct 7) in the Rabbit year is known as the Sui Po or Year Breaker. It’s the month that’s directly opposite the annual zodiac animal on the compass. The Rabbit occupies the East 2 position and the Rooster occupies the West 2 position. This creates energy known as Clash, which can bring change and challenge. So this month will most likely be one with ups and downs. The Yin Water of the year will wash over the Yin Metal of the month and make it shine. Since the Rooster is connected to pride, value, romance, talent, and beauty, these sectors and values will come to the forefront this month as the ambitious Yin Metal Rooster pursues perfection. There could be dramatic events this month as a result of the energetic interaction of metal and water combined with the flamboyant Rooster.

The Rooster month also marks the peak of Autumn, according to the Chinese calendar. And this year the Yin Metal core element of the Rooster is augmented by the Yin Metal Heavenly Stem. Yin Metal is associated with jewelry, as opposed to Yang Metal, which is associated with forged metal, such as in weaponry. Yin metal is more pliable and yielding while seeking perfection.

The Yin Metal Rooster (Xin You 辛酉) month combined with a Dragon in your chart forms a 6 Combination that basically cures any clashes and supports you through this month.

If you have a Rooster in your chart, this is a Self Penalty month for you. That means that you need to be mindful of any negative self-speak and self-sabotaging behavior.

If you have Monkey, Rat, or Dragon in your chart, this could be a great month for your social life as it forms a Peach Blossom with Rooster.

If you have Yin Fire or Yang Fire in your chart, or were born in a year ending with 1, this is a Nobleman month for you. Use this helpful energy wisely. Reach out for outside support/help for anything in which you may need assistance.

Feng Shui Analysis for the Month of the Rooster in the Year of the Rabbit:

The universal Feng Shui Chart for September is ruled by the 1 White Star (career). It combines with the Annual 4 Green Star (academics, relationships) to enhance academic and relationship support. This is the most supportive area of your home or office this month and a great place for activities that pertain to relationships or academics. It’s also a good area for gatherings of friends and family. There is also a 10 Combination in the Southeast, which supports is supportive for all activities.

Sectors of concern this month:

Northwest: The most inauspicious sector since the annual 5 Yellow Malicious Star (Wu Wang) combines with the Monthly 2 Black Illness Star. Avoid activating this sector through activity. If it’s the location of your front door, use an alternate entry this month.

Southwest: The 7 Red Star (robbery, loss, violence) is hosted by the Annual 1 White. Since the SW sector (Earth) supports the 7 (Metal) and diminishes the 1 (Water), be mindful of security and be careful with knives or weaponry here.
