South is at the top, as feng shui charts are drawn. The year runs from 4 February 2027 to 3 February 2028.
When does the 2027 feng shui year begin?
On 4 February 2027, not on 1 January. The yearly numbers change at Li Chun, the start of spring in the Chinese solar calendar. Li Chun falls on 3, 4 or 5 February depending on the year, and Flying Stars takes 4 February, the same date it uses for kua numbers. So the 2026 numbers still apply in January 2027, and the 2027 numbers apply until 3 February 2028.
Where is the 5 in 2027?
In the north. The 5, the Yellow Five, is traditionally the most troublesome of the nine: the app describes it as standing for misfortune, obstacles and illness, and is the most troublesome number of all. In every period the app's rule for it is the same, to weaken it rather than fight it:
Add metal — brass or copper, a six-rod metal wind chime or a metal bowl or sculpture — which draws it off quietly. Avoid fire and earth here, which feed it.
Where is the 2 in 2027?
In the west. The 2, the Black Two, traditionally stands for illness: it governs health, and wellbeing is what it takes away. The app weakens it in the same way:
Add metal — brass or copper, a six-rod metal wind chime or a metal bowl or sculpture — which draws it off quietly. Avoid fire and earth here, which feed it.
What does each area's number stand for in 2027?
Every area of a building carries one of the nine numbers for the year. The table gives each number's traditional meaning as the app words it, and what the app's rules add there.
North: 5, the Yellow Five
Traditionally stands for misfortune, obstacles and illness, and is the most troublesome number of all.
Aim: weaken it. Add metal — brass or copper, a six-rod metal wind chime or a metal bowl or sculpture — which draws it off quietly. Avoid fire and earth here, which feed it.
North-east: 3, the Jade Three
Traditionally stands for disagreement — quarrels, complaints and legal disputes.
Aim: weaken it. Add fire — a steady lamp, candles where safe or red textiles — which draws it off quietly. Avoid water and wood here, which feed it.
East: 7, the Red Seven
Traditionally stands for the blade: loss, theft and harsh words.
Aim: weaken it. Add water — a still water feature, a small fountain or a glass bowl of water — which draws it off quietly. Avoid earth and metal here, which feed it.
South-east: 8, the White Eight
Traditionally stands for wealth and property — steady, lasting gain.
Aim: calm it. Add metal — brass or copper, a six-rod metal wind chime or a metal bowl or sculpture. Avoid fire and earth here, which feed it.
South: 4, the Green Four
Traditionally stands for study, writing and examinations, and romance.
Aim: calm it. Add fire — a steady lamp, candles where safe or red textiles. Avoid water and wood here, which feed it.
South-west: 6, the White Six
Traditionally stands for heaven: authority, discipline and support from people above.
Aim: calm it. Add water — a still water feature, a small fountain or a glass bowl of water. Avoid earth and metal here, which feed it.
West: 2, the Black Two
Traditionally stands for illness: it governs health, and wellbeing is what it takes away.
Aim: weaken it. Add metal — brass or copper, a six-rod metal wind chime or a metal bowl or sculpture — which draws it off quietly. Avoid fire and earth here, which feed it.
North-west: 1, the White One
Traditionally stands for career, new beginnings and clear thinking.
Aim: strengthen it. Add metal and water — brass or copper, a six-rod metal wind chime, a metal bowl or sculpture, a still water feature, a small fountain or a glass bowl of water. Avoid earth here, which works against it.
Centre: 9, the Purple Nine
Traditionally stands for celebration, recognition and visibility.
Aim: strengthen it. Add wood and fire — a healthy living plant, fresh flowers, timber furniture, a steady lamp, candles where safe or red textiles. Avoid water here, which works against it.
Whether a number is strengthened, weakened or calmed follows the app's rules for Period 9, which runs until 3 February 2044. The 9 is at its peak and the 1 is rising, so both are strengthened. The 2, 3, 5 and 7 are the troublesome numbers and are weakened. The 8 has just passed its peak, and the 4 and the 6 are further from theirs, so those are calmed rather than fed.
How is the yearly chart worked out?
The centre number falls by one every year: 1 in 2026, 9 in 2027 and 8 in 2028, and after 1 it goes back to 9. The centre number then moves through the other eight areas in a fixed order, adding one at each step: the centre, north-west, west, north-east, south, north, south-west, east and south-east. It is the same order the app uses for a building's own chart.
How do I find the north of my home?
The numbers belong to compass directions, not to rooms. The north of a home is the part of the floor plan that lies north of its centre, whatever room happens to be there. To find it you need a compass reading and the plan: in the app you take the reading standing inside the front door, looking out, and then fit the nine areas over the plan by hand.
Does the yearly chart replace my building's own chart?
No. The yearly numbers are the same for every building and change each February. A building's own chart comes from the way it faces and the date it was built or renovated, and it stays the same for as long as the building does. The app calculates that chart and reads it room by room. It does not yet add the yearly numbers to it, so this page is where to find them.
These notes follow traditional flying star practice and describe the feel of a space. They are not medical, legal or financial advice, and they are not predictions about any particular person.
These are the year's numbers, the same for every building. Your home also has its own chart, fixed by the way it faces and the date it was built, and the app reads that one room by room.
