Your Kua number (卦数) reveals your four most auspicious and four most inauspicious directions for sleeping, working, sitting, and facing.
How to UseEnter your birth year and gender. The calculator computes your personal Kua number (1–9) using the traditional formula, then displays a compass rose showing your four lucky directions (Sheng Qi, Tian Yi, Yan Nian, Fu Wei) and four unlucky directions (Jue Ming, Wu Gui, Liu Sha, Huo Hai) with color-coded badges.
Cultural BackgroundEight Mansions Feng Shui (八宅风水, Bā Zhái) originated during the Tang Dynasty (618–907 CE). Master Yang Yun Song formalized the system that assigns every person a "life gua" based on birth year and gender. The Kua number determines which of the eight compass directions naturally support or drain your personal Qi (vital energy). This method remains one of the most widely practiced forms of Feng Shui across East and Southeast Asia.

Cultural BackgroundThe Luo Pan is the most iconic tool in Feng Shui practice, dating back over 2,000 years. Its concentric rings encode layers of geomantic data — from the early Heaven Bagua to the 24 Mountains (二十四山) that divide the horizon into 15° segments. Professional Feng Shui masters carry a Luo Pan with up to 36 rings. Our virtual version distills the essential layers for practical use while honoring the instrument's mathematical precision.

Step 2 — Select your house's sitting direction to overlay the house star map. Step 3 — Add multiple residents to check household compatibility and find optimal rooms for each person.
Cultural BackgroundBa Zhai (Eight Mansions) is one of the oldest Feng Shui schools, attributed to the Tang Dynasty monk Yi Xing (一行禅师). It classifies dwellings into two groups — East Life (东四命) and West Life (西四命) — each governed by four auspicious stars: Sheng Qi (生气), Tian Yi (天医), Yan Nian (延年), and Fu Wei (伏位). The system harmonizes a person's energy with their home's directional Qi flow.

Use this to plan renovations, desk placement, and bedroom orientation for the year.
Cultural BackgroundXuan Kong Flying Star (玄空飞星) is a time-dynamic Feng Shui system that tracks nine stars — each representing different energies — as they "fly" through a Lo Shu magic square pattern. The system originated from the Luo Shu legend, where a divine turtle emerged from the Luo River bearing a 3×3 number pattern on its shell. Each year, the stars rotate positions, making annual Feng Shui adjustments essential for maintaining harmony.
Advanced Flying Star analysis combining Period Star (运星), Mountain Star (山星), and Facing Star (向星) with Qi phase indicators for comprehensive property assessment.
How to UseEnter your property's construction period, sitting direction, and facing direction. The tool calculates the three-star combination for each of the 9 sectors. Each cell shows Period, Mountain, and Facing stars with their Qi phase (Current, Growth, Decline, Dead, Killing). Click any sector for detailed interpretation and remedial advice.
Cultural BackgroundXuan Kong Flying Star (玄空飞星) represents the most mathematically sophisticated branch of Feng Shui, developed during the Ming Dynasty. "Xuan Kong" (玄空) means "mysterious void," referring to the invisible forces that govern Qi movement through time and space. The three-star combination method considers the building's construction period (三元九运, a 180-year grand cycle) to determine long-term energetic qualities of each sector.
Find the best days for moving, weddings, business openings, and important events using the 60-day Sexagenary Cycle (干支) and traditional Chinese almanac principles.
How to UseSelect an activity type (moving, wedding, renovation, business opening, etc.) and a date range. The calculator cross-references the Sexagenary Cycle (天干地支), 12 Day Officers (十二建星), and 28 Lunar Mansions (二十八宿) to score each day. Results show auspicious days ranked by score with specific favorable and unfavorable activities listed.
Cultural BackgroundThe Chinese almanac (通胜, Tōng Shèng) has guided daily life for over 4,000 years. Its core is the Sexagenary Cycle — a 60-unit combination of 10 Heavenly Stems (天干) and 12 Earthly Branches (地支) that creates a repeating calendar pattern. Choosing an auspicious date (择日, Zé Rì) for weddings, moves, and business launches is deeply embedded in Chinese culture, with families often consulting a Feng Shui master or almanac before setting important dates.
Explore zodiac compatibility, romance luck, and personal name energy through traditional Chinese systems.
Analyze relationship dynamics between any two Chinese zodiac signs — Six Harmonies (六合), clashes (六冲), element interactions, and personalized advice.
How to UseSelect two zodiac animals from the grid. The tool calculates the overall compatibility score using Six Harmonies (六合), Three Harmonies (三合), Six Clashes (六冲), and Six Harms (六害). Results include a visual score circle, element relationship analysis, communication style comparison, and practical tips for improving harmony.
Cultural BackgroundChinese zodiac compatibility (生肖配对) is rooted in the Earthly Branches (地支) system. The 12 animals are organized into four harmony groups and six clash pairs based on their elemental and directional relationships. Families have consulted zodiac compatibility for marriage matching (合婚) since the Han Dynasty (206 BCE–220 CE). The Six Harmonies (六合) represent complementary energies, while Six Clashes (六冲) indicate potential friction — though skilled practitioners know that clashes can also create productive tension.
Discover your Peach Blossom Star (桃花星) — the Chinese astrology indicator for romance charm, social popularity, and interpersonal magnetism.
How to UseEnter your birth year and gender. The calculator identifies your Peach Blossom animal and its corresponding direction. You'll see your natural romantic charisma level, the best direction to activate romance luck, and practical Feng Shui tips — such as placing fresh flowers or a small water feature in your Peach Blossom sector to enhance attraction energy.
Cultural BackgroundSocial magnetism，The Peach Blossom Star (桃花星) derives from the Earthly Branches system. Each person has a "Peach Blossom animal" based on their birth year — Rat, Rabbit, Horse, or Rooster — corresponding to one of the four cardinal directions. The term "Peach Blossom Luck" (桃花运) is deeply woven into Chinese popular culture, describing a period of heightened romantic appeal. In classical poetry, peach blossoms symbolize love and beauty, as seen in the famous verse by Cui Hu (崔护): "The peach blossoms smile in the spring breeze."
Analyze a Chinese name using the Wu Ge (五格) Five-Grid system — Heaven, Earth, Person, External, and Total grids with stroke count numerology.
How to UseEnter a Chinese name (姓名). The tool calculates the stroke count for each character and derives the Five Grids: Tian Ge (天格, Heaven), Di Ge (地格, Earth), Ren Ge (人格, Person), Wai Ge (外格, External), and Zong Ge (总格, Total). Each grid receives an auspicious/neutral/inauspicious rating with element analysis and the Three Talents (三才) configuration.
Cultural BackgroundWu Ge Name Analysis (五格剖象法) was developed by Japanese scholar Kumazaki Kenō (熊崎健翁) in the early 20th century and quickly adopted in Chinese naming traditions. The system assigns numerical values to name strokes and maps them to the Five Elements. Parents often consult Wu Ge analysis when naming newborns, seeking to balance elemental energies and ensure auspicious stroke counts. The Three Talents (三才) — Heaven, Earth, and Human — represent the cosmic alignment of the name.

Your Kua number (卦数) is derived from your birth year and gender using the Eight Mansions (Ba Zhai) system. For males born after 2000, the formula differs from those born before 2000. The result (1–9) determines your four auspicious and four inauspicious compass directions. Use our Kua Number Calculator for instant results.
Flying Stars operate on three time scales: the 20-year Period Star (based on the current era in the 180-year cycle), the annual star (changes every Lunar New Year), and the monthly star (changes each lunar month). Our Annual Flying Star Chart shows positions from 2024 to 2030.
All calculators use traditional formulas documented in classical Feng Shui texts. They follow the same mathematical methods that professional Feng Shui masters use. However, a full property assessment also considers site-specific factors like landform, construction date, and individual occupant details that our tools cover in simplified form.
Ba Zhai (Eight Mansions) is a simpler system based on your personal Kua number — it's static and doesn't change over time. Xuan Kong Flying Star is more complex, incorporating time periods and the interplay of three stars per sector. Many practitioners use both systems together for a complete analysis.
Start with the Home Feng Shui Score to identify areas for improvement. Then use the Kua Calculator to find your best sleeping and working directions. Even in apartments, simple adjustments — like bed orientation, desk placement, and mirror positioning — can significantly improve your living experience.
