Dear Cecil and Robert, I found some uncosistency between the 8 houses theory and the 5 elements cycles. According to my gua number(3) my favorable directions are north,east,souhteast and south. Taking into consideration that I am a wood person, how the south can a favorable direction? The fire element would not weakening my energy? And why southwest and north east are unfavorable direction? Wood is not controlling earth? Thanking you in advance, Best regards Luigi
