How to Survive in a Bad Luck

No matter how good or bad you are now. Your luck won't be the same for years to come. The outside world is changing. We need to adjust our approach to overcome any obstruction in each stage of our life. Otherwise, we cannot catch up the world. for example, the scientific calculators are not in demand any more. Their customers all disappear. People count on the knowledge of the calculator shouldn't complain born in wrong time or condemn the bad luck today.

There are three factors connect to our luck. They are Heaven, Earth and People. Heaven is the sky. Sky has the Sun. Human invented the time using the position of the Sun. Therefore, Heaven is connected to the TIME. Earth is the soil or ground. People stand and live on it. Thus, Earth is connected to the PLACE.

When you are at the right place at the right time, and something happens to you and makes you happy. That must be PEOPLE there giving you the opportunity. If right people are also around at that moment, then they will help you to pump up the atmosphere of joy. So the joyous time, place and people will be embedded into the memory. We say that perfect timing is the good luck.

In the other hand, if wrong people are around you at the wrong time and place, then that probably is the moment of bad luck. If the wrong place causes a bad luck, we can choose the leave the wrong place. If the bad person causes a bad luck, we can choose to leave the person. If a place brings we good luck, we can move to there. If a person helps your luck, we can close to the person as possible. We always have the choice and opportunity to manage the place and people. However, if we remember the lucky time, we cannot go back that time or create that time in the future to get the same feeling. We just cannot do anything on the time of Heaven.

Although we cannot change the time. But we have right to study the counting system of time and the relationship with us. Chinese Yin Yang Five Element scholars discovered the relationship between time and people's fortune thousand years ago. They invented the astrology calendar to help us to know the cycle of good luck and bad luck.

We apply the Chinese Five Element (Metal, Water, Wood, Fire and Earth) theory in this website to reveal people's Chinese Astrology Rise and Fall Life Chart . This chart is the time schedule regarding good and bad periods. We can verify we are in bad cycle when things go wrong.

The Rise and Fall Chart tells us which Five Element brings good luck to us. Five Elements exist between Heaven and Earth. Five Elements have their life cycles. Knowing their cycle will help us to know when the bad luck will end. If a person has a bad luck and the current cycle is Fire, then the bad luck won't go away until Fire cycle is over.

Chinese Astrology also tells us 12 stages of the life cycle. This is a cycle of life time. This can apply on the cycle of Five Elements, too. The 12 stages show different strength of each period. So we can know how strong impact to our life from the bad luck.

Chinese Astrology 12-Stage Cycle

Now how to handle the existing bad luck? No matter the luck is related to money, career, business, relationship, fame, health or reputation. Firstly you should agree that Rain, Fire, Wind and Earthquake will stop naturally. So you need the faith that the bad luck will disappear eventually. The 12-Stage cycle shows us the same thing. The bad luck will end, then our luck will be reborn.

Therefore, you have to calm down your mind. You can find a quiet place for contemplation to reflect yourself about your faults. If you have a poor health for a while, then you must mistreat your body. If you become poor or lose job, then you must mistreat people or forget to upgrade your knowledge, and then decline popularity. Otherwise, if you have many friends around supporting you, you won't feel you are in bad luck. If you think you didn't do anything wrong, then you had better ask a friend with wisdom to examine yourself any improper comment, a negligent act, an unintentional omission or mistake on someone. You must rebuild yourself a new body and mind, show your virtue and courtesy to people, and then you will earn back your reputation from people. Thus, the factor of PEOPLE will push you toward the direction of good fortune.

If a place has the safety, health, business development or job opportunity issues you can consider to move to new location. Feng Shui is a Chinese philosophy theory of Earth, place and environment. It can help people to bring their spirit and luck after fixing the problem place. Basically, if you remove junk, clean up and redecorate your place, it will help your luck months later. If you want to speed the process, then consider to ask the advices from the Feng Shui professional. It also helps to improve people relationship. But it cannot change the TIME of Heaven.

The boarder meaning of the PLACE is all objects around your location. If you are in the office, then the products your sell, the tools you use, the material you buy are the objects. If they are below the requirements and standards, then they have to fix too. If you cannot fix, then keep the distance from them.

The Cycles of Four Seasons

The Chinese astrology 12-Stage Life Cycle is little bit complicate. It's easy to understand the cycle of tree by four seasons, since the lifecycle of tree and human are similar.





The luck cycles of career, wealth, health, fame and love always have their beginning point and ending point. We can treat their growth cycles as from the spring to the winter. They may have different durations. The birth is toward the death. The death is toward the rebirth. The seed of tree in the winter time reserves and accumulates the energy for spring's germination. Therefore, if your luck is in the winter time, then you just have to prepare for next great cycle. If you don't do something, you might not survive during the winter. Therefore, the bad luck is the time for preparing next rebounce.

The Cycles of I-Ching

To manage the back luck, I-Ching Hexagrams give us some good advices. The scene of the bad luck is similar to Hexagram #23 Mountain-EarthBo Kua, which combines Ken and Kun. Ken is Mountain on the top and Kun is Earth at the bottom. That means the soil of mountain falls down to the ground. This sign is also similar that aged painting on the wall is peeling off piece by piece. If we don't do anything, the wall will decay. When this happens, we need to stop new adventures and fix the foundation first.

The next scene will appear is the Hexagram #24 Earth-ThunderFu Kua, which combines Kun and Gen. Kun is Earth and Gen is Thunder. The Yang (Long Bar) on the top of Mountain-Earth Bo Kua has fallen down to the bottom of Fu Kua. The scene is the seed of the fruit fallen on the ground. This is the sign of returning to the beginning point. Therefore, you need to review, repair and recharge everything from the bottom. You should choose the practical approach. You must not to rush for the pipe dream.

Later, the attractive shortcuts may come toward you. But remember that your falseness or misbehavior during this period will cause you unexpected bigger trouble. This is the period of Hexagram #25 Heaven-ThunderWu-Wang Kua, which means Thunder under Sky. It's still danger outside during the thunder season. The seed is still in the process of the germination on the ground. If you can survive after this phase, the potential prosperity and success will come to you.

The Cycles of Five Elements

The Chinese Astrology Rise and Fall Life Chart reveals the secret of your Five Elements. That lets you know which element is connected to yourself, parents, children, career and money. Those relationships of Five Elements can connect to your Knowledge, Friend, Expression, Money and Career cycles. If you know your astrological cycle and you are in bad luck, then you will know how to plan the next step. It's the time to ask help from parents, friends or mentors. Or its the time to take education, switch direction, take care your family or take care your health.
