2024 marks the onset of the Period Nine era – the last 20 years of a grand cycle of 180 years – ushering in transformation, innovation and drastic change.
Businesses deemed to have the nature of metal and wood, such as finance, the stock market and property development, would find themselves suppressed during the year.
The new year could mean prosperous tidings for people in jobs regarded as having a fiery quality. These include everything from innovation and technology to artificial intelligence, cryptocurrency, religion, education and cosmetics.
Mainland China would encounter “many difficult problems” in the coming year and remain troubled by the negative impact of the world economy.
The start of Period 9, indicating the emergence of many new things and entirely unprecedented situations.
Conflicts between countries and political disruptions are bound to occur. There may be war, demonstrations and dissatisfaction with the government, as well as extreme weather, landslides and earthquakes.
The overall economic performance of the world will be quite moderate.
Careers related to rationality and sensibility will bring wealth. This bodes well for fields like technology and spirituality. Charitable organisations and religious groups will receive significant donations. Industries related to blood, including blood tests and businesses with bloodline connections, will see growth.
Global electricity shortages or disruptions may occur.
Indonesia is relocating its capital closer to East Malaysia, indicating boundless development prospects for East Malaysia.
War will be breaking out, especially in the centre of the world, that is, the Middle East area. The West will face challenges, and the United States will experience disasters such as earthquakes and typhoons. Having continuously increased interest rates, the US will also feel the repercussions of this vicious cycle.
In contrast, the East will be having a better year due to the presence of the much more benevolent Number 1 White Flying Star.
The Number 2 Black Illness Star in the Southeast in 2024 suggests that South-East Asia should be particularly cautious about the spread of diseases.
The Tong Sheng Chinese Almanac hints at the possibility of mutual sanctions between China and the United States, potentially leading to raw material shortages and hindering production.
The ‘9’ in the Later Heaven Bagua is situated in the South, prompting everyone to look southward. In Malaysia, the South includes Johor and Kuching, while in Asia, it encompasses India and Indonesia.
In 2024, caution is advised in real estate investments. Preserving financial strength for long-term investments is recommended, while short-term stock trading may not be suitable.
The year 2024 is a Universal Year 8 ruled by Saturn – the taskmaster planet concerned with long-term planning, achievements and foresight.
A number which is much-loved by the Chinese, Number 8 is about material riches, success, balance, authority, power, greed, structure and revolution. Meanwhile, Saturn signifies restrictions and limitations and is about self-discipline.
Recommends the use of gemstones such as onyx and amethyst this year.
Financial markets may see positive trends, with potential for gains in investments and business ventures. However, the energy of the Number 8 also warns against greed and excessive risk-taking, emphasising the importance of prudence in financial dealings.
The Number 8 is an Earth sign. Sectors related to real estate and infrastructure development may thrive this year, as the Number 8 is associated with tangible assets and long-term investments. Banking and finance sectors could thrive. Investments in technology, manufacturing and infrastructure could be particularly beneficial.
Investments in sustainable and green technologies will outpace all other sectors, driven by consumer demand, regulatory changes and technological advancements, marking a shift in global financial priorities.
This full moon falls in the area of the sky called Magha nakshatra, which is known for its generosity, loyalty and mysterious spiritual powers.
Magha is the home of the ancient Vedic deities called Pitris, the collective ancestral spirits and protectors of all life on the planet.
On this full moon, natural waters (like rivers and lakes) are imbued with the power to wash away accumulated negative karma, and the beneficial effects of charitable donations are said to be multiplied exponentially...
Good time for spiritual practices.
Dont be too critical of yourself.
Time to be introspective. Go slowly.
