In the period 8, I would like to activate the sector of my house with water star 8, however it comes with a combination of mountain star 1, water star 8 and base star 5. As earth controls water and weaken self, prosperity will be withhold or weakened. I was told to place metal to neutralize the effect, but I wonder by implementing metal will it strengthen water and further weaken prosperity star 8? What is the best solution? This sector is painted green. Would appreciate advice.

Dear Theresa,

Yes, metal is a good solution given that it creates a three-element flow ie.

Under the productive sequence, there is a three combination, "auspicious" flow

Earth -

Quote

Metal -
Water (and this supports water star #8)

Therefore, I agree that this is a reasonably good solution since you also have wood (green).

Thus, it makes a four-cycle flow:

Earth -

Quote

Metal -
Water -
Wood

(Optional is also the use of "fire" to create a full 5 element flow - which is the most auspicious combination flow!)

Thus, you can also go for:

Earth - Metal -
Water -
Wood -
Fire

Here, 3 element flow is good

4 element flow is better

5 element flow is a continous flow - very good

Frankly, sometimes, if we are at a total lost of what to apply, we could apply all five elements at a sector to create a continous harmonious five elements flow.

Warmest Regards,

Cecil
