Let's talk about what is the number of Gua in Feng Shui.

The number of Gua is a number calculated personally for each person, depending on year of birth.

The definition of an individual number of GUA will help to understand the most favorable directions in life for a person. Of the eight existing compass directions, the first four favorable a person, and the other four - on the contrary.

Having learned and taking into account new knowledge gained, it is possible to significantly improve life, avoid troubles and direct the course of events, and fate for the better. .

The number of Gua will help to answer many questions: why sleep or rest do not bring full-fledged relaxation, or for what reason the personal life is not laid, or things are going to work.

The number of Gua is calculated quickly and easily. You just need to know the year of your birth and take into account a few features.

1. The number of GUA for men and women differ, as well as they differ in those who were born until 2000. There are differences for girls and guys who were born after 2000. All are calculated in different ways.
2. The Chinese lunar calendar is somewhat different from our, to which we are accustomed. They have the date of the new year periodically changing and can be timed to the days, starting on January 21, ending the 20th of February. Thus, those people who were born until February 20 should order with the Chinese calendar to begin. In case China has come in China after your date of birth, it is necessary to take the previous one for the initial year, that is, a year before the occurrence of January 1.

Example: Your birth date is January 30, 1985. It turns out, on the lunar calendar, the Chinese New Year has come on February 20, 1985. So, when calculating GUA, you should take 1984.

Calculate the number of Gua to women who were born until 2000

1. You need to fold the last two digits from year of birth. As a result, you need to get an unambiguous number. If the result was the number consisting of 2 digits, for the same principle, add these numbers again to bring them to one.

For example: You were born in 1992: 9 + 2 \u003d 11, then 1 + 1 \u003d 2.

1. Now I add to the resulting number 5. The final result is again necessary to lead to one digit if a two-digit number came out.

Example: year of birth - 1978: 7 + 8 \u003d 15; 1 + 5 \u003d 6; 6 + 5 \u003d 11; 1 + 1 \u003d 2

As a result, the number of Gua - 2.

The number of GUA for girls born in 2000 and later

Similarly, fold the last two figures of the year of birth, only the resulting result is not enough 5, as an example above, but 6.

The number of Gua Men who were born earlier than 2000

Slip the last two birthday figures. Must leave a number, as a result, consisting of the 1st digit.

The result is required from 10.

Example: 1969 year of birth. 6 + 9 \u003d 15; 1 + 5 \u003d 6; 10 - 6 \u003d 4.

As a result, the number of GUA - 4.

Calculate the number of gua boys born in 2000 and later

The result, resulting from the addition of the last two years of birth, this time takes away from 10, and out of 9.

Important notes

The number of Gua 0 simply does not exist, for this reason, the young man who was born in 2009, the GUA will be equal to 9.

For women, if the result is in the end is 5, the number of Gua is equal to 8, and for men to 2.

2 groups of people are allocated depending on their GUA number:

1) If Guo 9, 4, 3, or 1, then, accordingly, you are the representative of the Eastern Group. Favorable for such people of the South-East and South, East and North.

2) If Guo 8, 7, 6 or 2, then you are a representative of the Western Group. The favorable directions of the northeast and the West, the North-West and the South-West.

Favorable directions

Personal development - Direction contributing to self-improvement, disclosure of domestic reserves, the development of creative and professional abilities

Success - The most favorable of all directions, promises good luck in all endeavors, wealth and luck. Feng Shui advises as often as possible to look in this direction, for example, for the working or dining table, the face is to sit in this direction.

Five spirits May lead to monetary difficulties, loss, fires.

Obstacles - This direction promises small quarrels and troubles.

Six killers Threaten serious problems, diseases, legal and financial difficulties.

As the Feng Shui says, for the desired improvement of any of their areas of your life, you should watch, eat, work and sleep face in favorable directions, which of them, you can choose yourself. And, on the contrary, in order to avoid poor consequences from unfavorable areas, avoid looking throughout these parties, especially during sleep, work, study, food, and other important matters.

For proper divination: focus on the subconscious and do not think about at least 1-2 minutes.

As you will be ready - pull the map:

The GUA number is a key indicator that characterizes the person in the technique of Ba Zhai. It is calculated based on birth dates. It is very important when appointing and executing recommendation on Feng Shui take into account the number of GUA of this person. A favorable direction for one person can be destructive for another.
The number of Gua is the basis of the Ba-Zhai technician - eight palaces, is based on Ba-Gua - eight trigms. Ba-Zhai technique takes into account that the focus of his dwelling is influenced by a person, i.e. Those energies that penetrate the house from the side of the world on which it is oriented. The basis for such a calculation is the back side of the house, i.e. The opposite facade. Accordingly, housing and people are divided into groups - Eastern and Western. In addition to the standard Ba-Zhai, which divides the space on 8 sectors of 45 degrees, exists and extended Ba-Zhai, dividing the space on the 15 degree sector, referring to the equipment of 24 mountains.

IMPORTANT: The number of Gua 5 does not exist. Therefore, if when counting the final result is 5, then the number of Gua for men is considered 2, and for women - 8.

NOT LESS IMPORTANT : If you are born between January 1 and February 4-5 (New Year's Day on the Chinese calendar), then you need to make calculations as if you were born in the previous year.

For woman - Fold four birth numbers in the same way, give the result to one digit and add a number 4.

East - Your best direction is responsible for prosperity and material well-being. Masters Feng Shui advise always to sit face east even while eating. Put your desktop according to the direction, and you will noticeably improve your financial tributaries.

Southeast - responsible for health. If you often sick, put your bed so to sleep your head in this direction.

North - It will help to get rid of loneliness and attract love in your life.

South - Develop your mental abilities. The best direction for learning.

As you have already noticed, each number of Gua has adverse directions. On our example,
Northeast - It is considered the most unlucky place in the house. You are in it now, and sit back to it.

West, South-West and North-West - can attract many troubles for you: collapse, ruin, disease, etc. The names of "Five Ghosts" and "Six Killers" - small collections of structures such as parting, quarrels, etc. We will not list them.

It should be noted that the GUA works with the directions, that is, you can activate any sectors according to the Bagua grid and not be afraid of the consequences (of course, if there are no unfortunate flying stars).

You just need to look into your side of the world when you think about desires, or do something important. Do study, eat, sign important paper, sleep face for the best direction, and you will attract a huge luck in your life!

Anastasia VolkovaFor rubrics

Hello!

My name is Alexander. I will be very grateful if you answer me one question. You as a professional could not clarify how the personal number of Gua is calculated correctly?

In the books of Richard Webster, for example, is calculated so.

Below is a simple formula for determining the person's personal trigram. The formula for men is somewhat different from the formula for women.If you are a man, take away the last two digits of the year of your birth from 100, and the difference is divided into 9. We are interested in non-division, but the residue. If there is no residue, then the human trigram is.For example, if you were born in 1954, take 54 from 100 - it will turn out to be 46. Delim 46 to 9 and we get the residue 1. So the trigram of this person is cany.Another example is for a man born in 1964. 100 - 64 \u003d 36, 36 is divided into 9 without a residue. The trigram of this person is.For women, the formula is somewhat different: they should be between the last two digits of the year of their birth and divide the difference by 9. And again we are interested only in the residue.Example for a woman born in 1973: 73 - 4 \u003d 69. We divide 69 by 9, we get in the residue 6.Another example: for a woman born in 1950. 50 - 4 \u003d 46. 46 is divided into 9 with the residue 1.

And in other sources are calculated so.

1. Take the year of my birth. If you were born in January or the first days of February, then deposit your birth date with the lunar calendar. If your number falls on the previous lunar year, then for the number of Gua, you should take the previous year. For example, you were born on January 20, 1982. In accordance with the lunar calendar, 1982 begins only on January 25, and therefore for the calculation of the number of Gua in this case should be taken in 1981.

2. Fold the last two recent digits of your birthday. If it turned out a two-digit number, fold the numbers of the resulting number again. For example, you were born in 1975: 7 + 5 \u003d 12, 1 + 2 \u003d 3.

3. Now it depends on your floor. For men, the resulting number should be subtracted from 10. In the example of 1975, it is 10 - 3 \u003d 7. The resulting number of Gua 7. If the calculation is carried out for boys born after 2000, it should be deducted from 10, and out of 9.

4. For women, the resulting number should be added 5. In Example 1975, it is 5 + 3 \u003d 8. The resulting number of Gua 8.

In this regard, different figures are obtained in some cases.

Many thanks!!!

Hello, Alexander!

Diffuses when counting the number of Gua usually appear in two cases.

1. Different Masters Feng Shui can use different calendars for counting Gua. Some believe that the solar calendar, starting on February 4-5 of each year, is more appropriate. And others believe that the lunar calendar needs to be used, the scatter of which began to be much larger. But still, as far as I know, most Feng Shui masters prefer to use the sun calendar.

2. Some formulas used in Feng Shui until 2000 are not suitable for counting after 2000, that is, they will give erroneous numbers.

Each person belongs to one of the 8 types of magnetic decline depending on his year of birth. Only in China, the sunny year begins at the time of the "coming of spring" (this is the middle of the interval between the winter solstice and the spring equinox), which is usually falling on February 4-5. Therefore, those people whose birthdays come to the interval from January 1 and on February 3 belong to the type of decline in the previous year. If the date of your birth falls on February 4-5, email us to clarify.

To determine your magnetic decline (the number of Gua, Gua of Life) is necessary:

1) Fold all birthday figures. For example, 1999 - 1 + 9 + 9 + 9 \u003d 28

2) to fold until one digit 2 + 8 \u003d 10 remains; 1 + 0 \u003d 1

But, if the calculation is obtained by number 5 (as in the above case), then for a woman the number of Gua will be 8, and for a man 2.

Two numbers should be remembered: for men 11, from which one should deduct the amount of birth numbers, and for women - 4, to which the amount of birth numbers should be added. All these arithmetic acts serve to simply calculate the number of GUA. In fact, Gua has a natural distribution by year:

Year	Gua for men	Gua for women
1990	1	8 (5)
1991	9	6
1992	8	7
1993	7	8
1994	6	9
1995	2 (5)	1
1996	4	2
1997	3	3
1998	2	4
1999	1	8 (5)
2000	9	6
2001	8	7
2002	7	8
2003	6	9
2004	2 (5)	1

(In this table, I have already replaced 5 to 2 for men and 8 for women.)

Why not gua 5?

Gua in Chinese is a trigram. There are only 8 trigms - Bagua ("Ba" - eight). Why not exactly 5 gua? Because in the Lo-Shu Square (the nine-sector square Lo-shu with numbers from 1 to 9 is the basis of Fengshui formulas) Figure 5 is in the middle and it cannot be compared to any trigram (direction).

Square Lo-Shu:

		south
east	4	9	2	west
	3	5	7
	8	1	6
		north

8 types of magnetic decline are divided into Eastern - Gua Life 1, 3, 4, 9 and Western - 2, 6, 7, 8 groups. Successful directions for people belonging to one group coincide, but differ in the degree of influence.

There are 8 directions in total: 4 successful and 4 unsuccessful.
Successful (in descending order of influence):
1. Shen Qi ("Producing Good Qi"). This is the most successful direction.
2. Tian and ("Heavenly Doctor").
3. Nyan Yan ("longevity").
4. Fu Vei ("Good Life"). Least good direction.

Unsuccessful (in order to reduce harm):
5. Jew Min ("Unhappy Fate"). The most unfavorable direction.
6. GUi ("Five Ghosts").
7. Liu Sha ("Six Demons").
8. Ho Hai ("misfortune"). Least harmful direction. "

In order to determine their best / worst directions, it is necessary to find your number of Gua in the left column, which is written "the number of Gua". On one line with your number of Gua, your best / worst directions will be indicated: in the column under the number 1 - the best (Shen Qi), under the number 2 - Tien and etc.

Number of Gua.	Direction
	1	2	3	4	5	6	7	8
1	Yow	IN	YU	FROM	Yuz	St.	SZ	Z.
2	St.	Z.	SZ	Yuz	FROM	Yow	YU	IN
3	YU	FROM	Yow	IN	Z.	SZ	St.	Yuz
4	FROM	YU	IN	Yow	St.	Yuz	Z.	SZ
6	Z.	St.	Yuz	SZ	YU	IN	FROM	Yow
7	SZ	Yuz	St.	Z.	IN	YU	Yow	FROM
8	Yuz	SZ	Z.	St.	Yow	FROM	IN	YU
9	IN	Yow	FROM	YU	SZ	Z.	Yuz	St.

Try most of the time to pursue your face in your favorable side, as well as while sleeping heads in good for you.

There are different opinions about what time the direction (from 4 favorable) is the best for sleep? Someone says that the most appropriate is the best (1), but so that you are not exactly in this direction, but would be shifted by several degrees to any side. Someone believes that it is best to 4 direction. And if you have, for example, health problems, it is better to sleep in the direction 2 (Heavenly Doctor). Now you can experiment, because the main thing is that you know what directions are good for you, and which - no.
