I Ching : A six combination kwa is not always good
The I Ching is used to guide us on many questions and has been in use for thousands of years. There are so many translations of the ‘Book of changes’ available, each with its own interpretation of the 64 hexagrams. Practitioners of the I Ching today, rely solely on the book to interpretate the kwa, and have no clue that the true knowledge is written within each of the 6 lines.
This is another specialty of Chue Style - the I Ching and the 64 hexagrams. The interpretation is based on each individual line, as well as their kinships, Lok San animals, 12 palaces, combinations, the season and all the inside information each line carries. This in-depth interpretation of the I Ching was developed by Grand Master Chan Kun Wah, after many decades of research. It shows to be very accurate, when we know how to read the kwa correctly.
The 64 kwas used in the I Ching are the same as we use in our Chue Style compass, for Feng Shui, as well as for predictions. These are very precise instruments or tools that we learn to use throughout many years of intense studies of Chue Style Feng Shui. In order to understand the I Ching properly, we must first master Ba Zi, Date selection and understand the 64 kwas in detail. Currently, there is nobody else teaching these valuable and precise skills, but Grand Master Chan Kun Wah. We are very fortunate to be able to benefit from his teachings!
In the example above Grand Master Chan reveals how to use the I Ching for property hunting. It is a real case example, which was asked recently before viewing a property for purchase. Before Grand Master Chan goes on any consultation, he would ask the I Ching about the property or land. It is impressive how much information it is revealed even before viewing the location!
In this example the I Ching shows 8-fate/7 water above lake 節, a 6-combination kwa. Normally, this is very good for the house. However, the 6-combination kwa doesn’t always mean it’s a good house! In this example Grand Master Chan teaches us why.
We need to investigate each individual line, the Sy 世 and Ying 应, the combinations and their outcome. We also need to consider the moving line and its changes; to which element, the kinships and their strengths.
First thing we need to know if this house is good or bad. It is much better if inside the kwa we find all the kinships. It means nothing is missing and all the family is there.
Secondly, kinships chee ⼦ and choi 才 need to be strong. Choi 才 is where the energy comes from and chee ⼦ is where the energy is stored in the property. They are both very important for a property. In this case, we have energy coming from 巳 position in the south and it is stored in the east (卯). The position where the energy comes from is weak, because the monthly leader 寅 is crushing to Ying 应 申 and the latter combines to 巳 position, turning it into water; gip choi 却財. Because the 巳 position changes to water, the choi 才 is not strong. The east position 卯, 子kinship is also not good, as it moves backwards to 寅 in the changing kwa. Neither 卯, nor 寅 are empty however in 卯 year and 寅 month.
Third, we need to look at 2nd and 5th lines. They represent the property and the occupant respectively. In this case they are represented by 卯 wood and 戌 earth. In theory they combine, but there is no movement, so they actually crush each other. The wood crush to earth, meaning the property controls the occupant. This is not good. Further, we look at the whole kwa. Which kinship is represented the most? It is the Kun 官, earth. It also happens that the third line is moving, which is 官, the earth. The third line represents the inside main door. When 丑 moves, it goes forward into ⾠, 墓 tomb. It is the water tomb and the 8-fate/7 kwa belongs to Kam, water family. It is also composed of water trigram above lake trigram - more water.
It turns out the house was full of humidity, the walls were damp and it had a very bad smell, which Grand Master Chan noticed right away when he entered that door.
The back wall of the ground floor also had no windows at the back, as it was in the same level as back garden - hence the correlation with the tomb. The house was full of water, as the I Ching suggested in the trigrams, also we can see the water in the tombs - 丑 has 癸 water inside, and ⾠ is the water tomb. The house was North site, facing South. Because the garden was in the North, it does not receive enough warmth and sun, so the energy was very damp. In a cold country we need more exposure to the south.
The energy of this house is declining, this is shown by the I Ching as well. The Sy 世 is the occupant and the Ying 应 is the future. When they combine: 巳申 ⽔ water results. Water is the gip choi 却財 for this kwa. When 巳 choi才, the energy, changes to gip choi, it is no good at all. All energy is gone, declining!
Moreover, the season is very important in the I Ching. Here, the month is 甲寅 and it crushes to 申, ⽗ kinship. The 寅 is chee ⼦ kinship, the future generation and now is crushing with foo ⽗ which represents the health. It means this house is not good for health and does not benefit the future generation! Another indication of the house not being good for health is that there is 官 - sickness with Ba Fu (white tiger).
We can see how the 6-combination kwa doesn’t benefit the occupant in this case. There is no more choi 才 left, as the combinations result in gip choi 却財 (巳申 ⽔), or 官 (⼦丑 ⼟). No energy gets into the property and even worse is that the changing kwa is 3 fate - called ‘the spirit messing about’.
At first the house looks nice, from the outside. The I Ching also shows that it is high at the back, we can see the top line ⼦ has a far away view (red bird). This was the case, as there was a very good and open view from the back garden. The inside condition was not good at all, as the house was very neglected. The owners never invested in any renovation or maintenance. This can be seen again in the I Ching, as the 官 line is moving into 墓 tomb, suggesting the organisation is not good in the house. Also because the earth (官 kinship) is empty in spring.
At first, the house was good, but because of poor properties, they last much longer and can provide us with good energy. We can now understand why this 6 combination kwa doesn’t show a suitable house at all! It is all written in the lines. This useful knowledge can save us a fortune, as seen in this example when hunting for property.
