Biweekly Navigation Weekly Fortune Strategy: Red and Black List Years and This Week's Dos & Don'ts
Introduction: This Week, Focus on "Control"
To be honest, many people think that fortune is like a blind box, but it’s more like a navigation system. If the road conditions are bad, pressing the gas pedal harder will only increase your anxiety; if the road is clear, not daring to change lanes will waste your time as well. The rhythm of this week is more "strategic": make fewer emotional decisions and focus more on resource allocation.
I look at this week's atmosphere using the Life Palace (命宮) as a guide, with the core key being "how do I stabilize and allocate resources." The directional reference falls on the flavor of Geng Shen (庚申), like sharpening a knife, streamlining processes, and cutting off what needs to be cut. I resonate with this because when work and interpersonal relationships hit a snag, what’s needed most is not more effort, but more precise choices.
At the end of the article, I remind you that astrology ultimately has its discrepancies; treat it as a reference for life strategies.
Overall Fortune Rhythm This Week: Pruning with a Sharp Knife, Returning to Control
The keywords for these seven days are three:
- Convergence: Bring back scattered fronts; don’t try to manage everything.
- Identification: Distinguish who is a resource and who is noise; be clear.
- Implementation: No matter how good the idea is, without a timeline and execution points, it’s just a comfort.
In fact, many may not know that even during good fortune, things can go wrong, often because of being "overconfident" and becoming lax; conversely, bad fortune can turn around, usually because of being "willing to let go" and becoming flexible. This week, the biggest fear isn’t external resistance, but complicating things for yourself.
Red and Black List Years: Who's Riding the Wind, Who Needs to Hit the Brakes
I provide you with a practical life version of the red and black list based on the "last digit of the year." This isn’t about superstition, but rather about facilitating risk management.
Red List: Suitable for Taking Initiative, Negotiating Terms, and Advancing Progress
- Last digits 0, 4, 8 (e.g., 1990, 1994, 1998, 2000, 2004, 2008, 2010…)
- The energy this week feels more like "someone is helping you open the door." Proposals, negotiations, and resource requests have a higher success rate than usual.
Black List: Suitable for Conservative Adjustments, Stopping the Bleeding, and Making Fewer Big Promises
- Last digits 1, 3, 6, 9 (e.g., 1991, 1993, 1996, 1999, 2001, 2003, 2006, 2009…)
- This week, it’s easy to fall into the trap of "I thought we had a deal," but the details fall apart. Contracts, deadlines, and verbal agreements all need to be reconfirmed.
Neutral and Cautious: Suitable for Organizing, Reviewing, and Testing the Waters
- Last digits 2, 5, 7 (e.g., 1992, 1995, 1997, 2002, 2005, 2007…)
- This week may not see drastic ups and downs, but it heavily depends on whether you follow the steps correctly. If the process is smooth, it will go well; if chaotic, it will be stuck.
If you want to be more precise, look at your own natal chart (命盤) on the day of the Life Palace (命宮) stars for better accuracy; here, I’ll guide you with weekly strategies to find direction.
This Week's Dos & Don'ts: Follow These to Regain Control of Your Fortune
Dos: 7 Recommended Actions
Schedule "Important but Not Urgent" Tasks To be honest, what truly changes your fortune is often not a last-minute sprint, but your willingness to allocate fixed time slots for health check-ups, financial organization, learning, and relationship repairs.
When Negotiating Collaborations, Ask: What Are the Delivery Standards? This week, it’s easy to suffer from "assuming the other party understands." Clearly define success criteria to avoid endless backtracking later.
Spend 30 Minutes for a Resource Inventory List three types of resources you have: time, connections, cash flow. Then ask yourself one thing: which one is being wasted?
Deeply Advance One Theme Choose one thing that can yield results within seven days and focus on it. Trying to juggle ten things will only leave you exhausted.
Change Communication to "Short Sentences + Conclusions" The energy of Geng Shen (庚申) calls for efficiency. The longer the message, the easier it is to misunderstand and lose the main point.
Leave a Backup Plan for Yourself There’s no need to be pessimistic; it’s mature. Keep flexibility in schedules, deadlines, and budgets; you’ll need it this week.
Take Care of Your Health Before Discussing Momentum I feel strongly about this. Staying up late can impair your judgment, making your fortune seem worse when it’s really just that you’re too tired to make choices.
Don'ts: 7 Pitfalls to Avoid
Don’t Make Decisions Based on Emotions This week, arguments, resignations, breakups, and cutting collaborations can easily lead to regret afterward. If you must, sleep on it first.
Don’t Promise Deadlines When Information Is Incomplete Black list years are particularly prone to getting stuck here. You want to perform, but it ends up being you who bears the brunt.
Don’t Treat Personal Relationships as Contracts Verbal promises, tacit understandings, and good feelings do not equate to implementation. Write it down if you can, confirm it if you can.
Don’t Open Too Many New Ventures at Once Launching new projects, courses, side businesses, and communities all at once can easily lead to chaos, with nothing truly taking off.
Don’t Let Provocation Control Your Rhythm When someone provokes you, you might feel the urge to prove yourself. Strategic weeks require stability, not a rush to win.
Don’t Spend Money on "Seemingly Necessary" Anxiety Purchases For example, buying a bunch of tools, courses, or equipment without a practical usage plan. Set the process first before buying.
Don’t Ignore Minor Ailments Toothaches, shoulder and neck pain, stomach discomfort can easily escalate this week. If your body is out of sync, the rhythm for the entire week will be disrupted.
Action Suggestions: A Control List for This Week
Here’s a practical approach you can use tonight:
- Write down the one thing you care about most this week.
- Set three deliverables (the kind that can be checked).
- Dedicate 45 minutes each day to deeply focus on just this one thing.
- Spend 5 minutes each night reviewing: Which choice today made me feel more in control?
You’ll find that fortune often doesn’t get better; it’s that you start to no longer be pushed around.
