Thanks Mr. Cecil, It certainly looks like year of tiger will be better for me :-) ( well this year so far has been pretty good too, especially learning feng shui has been inspiring ) So, time dimension can have strong influence over sitting/facing stars. I will certainly look out for #2 and #5 stars in the west and the N I also read about 8-2 combination and 7-3 combination, the stars will cancel out each other's strength when they meet, do you think it's true? If so, then, annual 2 won't be as scary and the 8 sitting star might not be as helpful as they meet? Thanks for your advice. iv> Peter
