‘八’運當頭The period of 8

大家看到‘八’了嗎？

祖師們長年累月研究地球和其他星象，發現每20年地球的事物發展會有一個趨勢，進而斷定地球每隔20年會換一次地運。從2004年開始，地球就進入了為期20年的八運，一直到2023年。

這八運由八白星掌管 ，是個大財星。此星所到的方位，號为当时得令。懂得如何去催旺這顆八白星，自然可以接到大財氣，生活自然安逸。這‘八’字在華人文化裏，象徵着 ‘發’，而在這20年的八運，‘8’ 的數字也代表得令。更妙的是，‘8’ 橫着寫時為‘∞’，意味無窮無限的意思。

在新加坡，已有3大購物中心將這‘8 ’字運用在它們的商標裏，連來自香港的堡獅龍也不甘示弱。衆多商標當中，我個人覺得NEX的設計最了得。它不但用了五行相生的顔色，還很巧妙地把X字拉成一連串的‘8’，很有意思。Centrepoint 商標裏的 ‘8’ 雖讓一般人看不出有風水的寓意在裏頭，但可惜不正如不倒翁也沒有連接在一起。‘8 ’字以紅、橙、紫等色搭配才會有力量。 如果堡獅龍是有意將 ‘8’ 字注入在商標裏，可惜選的顔色無法催旺‘8’的財氣。

但請注意，這並非代表每個人用‘8’都會有一樣的效果，還是得配合個人八字為準。

八運已走到一半，在這期間，還會有越來越多年輕的男百萬富翁（尤其是來自中國和中東國家），我们更會看到電腦時代不斷地擴展，大街上的大熒幕更會层出不穷。

2024年，進入九運時，電腦科技的發展將會出乎我們的意料，勢必攀上另一個高峰。

Can you see the “8” in the photos?

Over centuries, past ancient masters have observed the movement of our planet and the stars and discovered a trending pattern every 20 years. Every 20 years, our planet Earth undergoes a shift in energy. Since Year 2004, we have already stepped into a new 20-year cycle, known as the Period of Eight, which will carry us through to 2023.

The Period of 8 is governed by the 8 Prosperity Star, which brings great wealth. The sector that the star flies to is known to be the most in luck. If you know how to activate this 8 Prosperity Star, it will bring you wealth and consequently an easier and more comfortable life. The number 8 in Chinese culture signifies ‘strike it rich’, and in the Period of 8, it has evolved to be the most auspicious number. Interestingly, the number 8 written horizontally, ‘∞’, means infinite and boundless.

In Singapore, 3 big shopping malls have been using ‘8’ in their logos. Even Bossini from Hong Kong seemed to have jumped on the bandwagon. My personal favourite is the logo of NEX shopping mall. It uses complementary elemental colours and the character ‘X’ was cleverly extended to form a chain of ‘8’. The logo of Centrepoint may have incorporated ‘8’ in a subtle manner but the ‘8’ is topsy turvy and does not connect together. The favorable colors for the number 8 are red, orange and purple. If Bossini designed its logo with the intention of putting an ‘8’ in it, its white colour, however, failed to give the strength required to activate the energy of ‘8’.

But a precautionary note for all: not all who use the number 8 will have the same positive effect. It has to complement your personal birth chart for the best results.

We are at the halfway mark into the Period of 8. The world will continue to witness the emergence of more young male millionaires, especially from China and the Middle East. Information technology will continue to scale new peaks and more mega screens will be sprouting up on our buildings.

Come Year 2024 when our planet enters the period of 9, the digital age will hit a new unimaginable crescendo.
