Eight Mansions Feng Shui: The Fate Trigram, the East and West Groups, and the Eight Stars

The room pages on this site keep arriving at the same question. What Is Feng Shui closes its survey of the compass school by naming its two best-known methods — the eight mansions (八宅, bazhai) and the flying stars — and leaving both unopened. The bedroom page points the headboard’s direction question at “the occupant’s mingua”; the home office page parks the desk-facing question at the same term; the front door page defers the door’s favorable sector to “the resident’s own kua number.” Three pages, one deferral: this page is where the deferral ends.
