This should be a given, and it should be needless of me to say, but I have nothing against people suffering from mental ailments. A part of me will always feel sad for people who suffer from them, and I know I will always be helpless. I am not equipped to deal with...

I can’t tell you how happy and fulfilled I am right now. Everyone, meet Lucian. Lucian stems from the word “light” in Latin, and I kid you not, I fell in love with this name through a video game. He represents the Sun, and if and when I have a daughter, I’ll...

There are a few things I wish to say before I begin this case study: Please bear in mind a Singaporean died. She was brutally murdered. The news is still fresh in everyone’s minds, and I will not be flamboyant with my words as I don’t want to disrespect...

This year-end blog post is almost 15,000 words long. I suggest you find somewhere quiet if you wish to read it. You won’t be able to digest this while doing something else. There’s nothing important or profound in this post (I think), so do what you will...

Ah, yes, Feng Shui items. If the universe was a living entity with a digestive system and it took a shit, it’ll come out as Feng Shui items. Let me start off by saying that Feng Shui items are scams and do not work, and I will try to argue my point in this post....

I initially wanted this to be purely a case study of an unfortunate life, but I figured I’d bring in some relatable topics that anyone exposed to astrology would think of – the “nurture vs. nature” debate. I’ll need a PhD in either...

Everyone is talking about Feng Shui Period 9 right now. I get it. It is perhaps the most significant celestial and astrological event of 2024. Or is it really 2024? The situation we’re dealing with right now is as though someone gave birth but forgot she had a...

Death Emptiness, also known as 空亡 (kōng wáng), is perhaps one of the most enigmatic and perplexing topics in Chinese astrology. It’s one of those concepts in BaZi that has very little reliable source material for study. People often don’t know exactly what...

Everyone has been on my blog long enough to know there’s an apparent dichotomy in the quality and balance of BaZi charts. It’s why some people are high-functioning, whereas others aren’t and can barely get their act together. A key step in BaZi...

I am on a blogging roll thanks to Mercury Retrograde. I’ll be blunt like I always am. Doing a Qi Men Dun Jia divination on Singapore’s 2023 Presidential Election feels pointless. We all know who will win, although there is always a very, very small chance...

OK. As much as this is a case study on Lisa using BaZi, Zi Wei Dou Shu, and Western astrology, this has got to be the most complex and dangerous blog post I had to write because I don’t know if I will get doxxed, f***ed, slammed, or shat on. I might offend too...
