Ba Zhai
After passing a couple of “Pro” courses I started thinking that probably Ba Zhai school was something quite oversimplified. I even omitted that level of analysis in a couple of consultations.
But then once I visited my parents in Saint-Petersburg. My father was on the business trip and so I could freely stay in the room he usually uses.
Objectively that was the perfect situation: the native country, native city, which is far more than just beautiful, my mother’s care and kitchen, friends…
But despite all this I fell down in the terrible depression. I am not a depressive kind of person, because I use some thousands years old methods to discover inner joy, bliss and wisdom and I can admit they work. So any sign of depression for me is an event.
So I decided to check up the Feng Shui.
The stars were quite acceptable, but the room’s door, apartment’s door, floor’s door at the elevator spot, passage to the other part of a house through the open balcony — all of them were my personal Jue Ming. I’ve spent just a couple of nights in the room, that pulled me in one of the bluest depressions I’ve ever felt.
Since then I always try to take it into account. Sometimes I even use the full Ba Zhai method — with mountain and water stars, stars’ matches — I am not sure what was the Chinese name though. The teacher was European and was calling it just “Flying stars Ba Zhai”.

Hi Aleksei,
You looked at the reason of depressión with Yi Jing?
. This book sheds light on the accurate reasons in most cases.
Andrew. Thanks for reply.
I didn’t check it with Yi Jing, because the situation was urgent, everything was clear and I didn’t have any interest in deeper studying the situation then.
Concerning Yi Jing itself as a method, I prefer to use Peach Blossom method, which is beautiful, artistic and very intuitive. Or Wen Wang Gua Divination method (also known as 6-yao or Najia method), which is as logical as Ba Zi.
I don’t use the book itself.
