Posted January 31, 200520 yr Staff Dear Sophia,Actually, many of the beliefs centres around the Grand Duke of Jupiter or the concern of Tai Sui. In fact, this year Tai Sui resides at SW sector until after the 15th day of the 1st lunar month.And because of this, this is why the idea of not "confronting Tai Sui" at SW on the 1st day of Chinese New Year.For next year i.e. in 2006 before the 15th day of the next 1st lunar month in 2006, Tai Sui will be at the West direction.Thus the belief is that one should not antagonise Tai Sui during the new year. There is no harm in playing safe. But one has to be practical, here. Imagine! if this is the only door, then looks like one should'nt leave the house for whatever reason on the first day.Imagine this "bad luck": A fire and need to exit the home! Unfortunate also, the tomb-stone on this silly person's grave reads:" To scared to offend Grand Duke (Tai Sui). Refused to run-out of his home with windows or main door at SW."In italics ....
