How to Appease the Tai Sui 2018

The Tai Sui, also known as Grand Duke Jupiter, or “God of the Year” moves to Northwest 1 in 2018, astrological home of the Dog.
Thus, the Tai Sui is very helpful to all those born in the Year of the Dog - you have his support! However, those of you born in the Year of the Dragon are in direct confrontation with the Tai sui and could get hurt since it is considered unlucky to “face” the Tai sui. Anyone whose house faces NW is in direct confrontation with the Tai Sui.

Although NW is also a favorable direction for those of you who are of the “west” group, in 2018 you should not face this direction even if it is your personal sheng chi or one of your other good directions. Note that confronting the Tai Sui brings loss and misfortune and even friends may turn against you so please move your desk or bed if necessary and do not face NW1. It’s important to get the Tai Sui on your side at the beginning of the year.

The Tai Sui has been recognized for over 2000 years and the location where the Tai Sui resides as well as the location the Tai Sui has just vacated are considered lucky. This implies that it is lucky to be in NW1 location in 2018 or in the West 2 location (where the Tai Sui resided in 2017). Anyone whose room of office is located here will benefit.

There are certain “rules” we follow with regard to the Tai Sui:

Tai Sui Plaque 2018

1. Everyone, no matter what your animal sign, should not directly face NW 1 where the Tai Sui is located (especially if you are a Dragon). This also applies to when you are sleeping – your head should not face NW1. You may however face SE1, and thus have your back protected by the Tai Sui!
2. There should be no digging or renovating in the NW1 in 2018 – keep this area quiet and thus you will not disturb the Tai Sui.
3. Display the Tai Sui Plaque for the year. This year, it should be displayed in the Northwest sector of any room - the living room or dining room are good choices. By doing so, you are invoking the support of the Tai Sui for whatever you are doing and he will bring you luck.’

Carry the Tai Sui Amulet in 2018

4. Carry the Tai Sui Amulet with you! It brings good energy and protection from danger, and appeases the Tai Sui. You can use as a key chain or a beautiful bag tag to clip on your handbag or backpack. It is especially crucial if your house faces NW, and for everyone born under the sign of the Dog, Dragon, Sheep and Ox (direct and side conflicts with the Tai Sui), but is beneficial for everyone to carry in 2018.
5. It is also beneficial to place a beautiful Pi Yao in the Northwest. This will help you get on the good side of the Tai Su and this celestial chimera is also very auspicious – especially if you are born in the year of the Dragon.

Good luck!
