Weekly Navigation: Red and Black List Years and Dos & Don'ts

Introduction: This Week Is About "Taking Back Control"

To be honest, the rhythm of this week feels like "the steering wheel is a bit loose": you think you're driving straight, but the road keeps throwing small bends at you. Looking at the Life Palace (命宮) as a guide, the focus is not on whether luck is good or bad, but on "whether you are willing to take back decision-making power."

The direction of Ji Hai (己亥) gives a straightforward reminder: external circumstances can change, but your own rhythm must remain stable. Hai (亥) brings water, which excels in flow and integration, but its weaknesses are being soft-hearted and procrastination. This week, just focus on two things: keep information clean and commitments moderate. You will find that luck is not as mysterious as it seems; much of it depends on how you choose.

Also, a reminder: the language of astrology can be misleading, so treat it as a reference for life, not something to scare yourself with.

Overall Fortune Rhythm This Week: Two-Phase Progression

1) First Half of the Week: More Noise, Suitable for "Calibration"

In the next few days, you may encounter an overwhelming amount of information, last-minute changes, and half-finished conversations. What many may not realize is that this chaos in the first half of the week is not about working harder, but about being more precise.

I feel this strongly; the more eager someone is to reply, the more likely they are to fall into someone else's rhythm. The most beneficial approach in the first half of the week is to "break things down and write out options". You don’t need to do a lot, just do it right.

2) Second Half of the Week: Resources Flow Back, Suitable for "Landing"

Starting in the second half of the week, things that were previously stuck will gradually clear up, especially regarding collaboration, payments, scheduling, and progress reports. The benefit of water energy here is that it will connect fragmented elements.

But it will also test you on one thing: are you soft-hearted again, taking on demands you shouldn’t? Once you agree, you’ll be tied down for the next seven days. The winning strategy this week is "fewer commitments, more deliveries"; if you deliver results, you regain control.

Red and Black List Years: Who Thrives and Who Needs to Reign It In

I’ll provide a useful method using "last digits of the year" for quick reference. The year is based on the Gregorian birth year.

Red List: Last Digits 1, 4, 7

Last Digit 1: To be honest, this week is very suitable for starting new ventures, especially proposals, job applications, and negotiations. The clearer you are about what you want, the easier it is for others to concede.
Last Digit 4: Your strength lies in stability; correct processes in the first half of the week and amplify outputs in the second half, making you easily noticeable. Don’t be afraid to appear "conservative"; being conservative is actually your tactic.
Last Digit 7: Connections and resources will flow towards you, but the prerequisite is that you must be selective. Once you learn to refuse inappropriate invitations, the right collaborations will come closer.

Black List: Last Digits 0, 3, 6, 9

Last Digit 0: You may easily be dragged by noise, especially household chores, personal favors, and last-minute tasks. You need to be firmer; clear boundaries will prevent internal exhaustion.
Last Digit 3: Impulsive spending and impulsive agreements are the biggest pitfalls. It’s not that you can’t be impulsive, but you need to have a stop-loss point.
Last Digit 6: Emotional and relational issues may become sticky; the more you try to clarify everything at once, the easier it is to argue. This week is suitable for "first living well"; relationships will naturally return to the right track.
Last Digit 9: You may encounter repeated revisions and unclear responsibilities at work. What you need to do is keep records and clarify your statements; don’t rely on tacit understanding.

Dos & Don'ts: Specific Actions for the Next Seven Days

Dos: Follow These for Smooth Sailing

Turn Decisions into Written Words: Convert all verbal commitments into messages or documents, even three lines will do. This week, the biggest fear is "you think they understand."
Set Aside Quiet Time Daily to Clear Information: Ten minutes is enough; delete unnecessary group notifications and organize your to-do list. The fortune of a water element week flows smoothly when it’s clean.
Use a "Two-Phase" Approach for Important Tasks: In the first half of the week, calibrate direction and data; in the second half, push forward and deliver. This will save you a lot of rework time.
Have Boundaries When Discussing Money and Resources: Clearly state quotes, working hours, and deliverables. I feel strongly about this; being clear is not distrust, it’s about protecting each other.
Use "Hydration" for "Stable Fortune": Sleep less, drink more water, and avoid heavy flavors. Don’t laugh; this week, the stability of your Life Palace is highly tied to your physical condition.

Don'ts: Stepping on These Will Bring Bad Luck

Don’t Reply to Messages with Emotion: Especially when being pressured, criticized, or misunderstood. If you respond quickly, others will seize your weaknesses.
Don’t Make Major Commitments in the First Half of the Week: For example, signing long contracts, taking on big projects, or agreeing to unreasonable deadlines. The second half of the week is more suitable for finalizing deals.
Don’t Be the "Firefighter": If you help once, you’ll have to help until the end. This week, you need to practice throwing problems back to the responsible person.
Don’t Treat Relationships as Performance: No matter how much you do, if the other party doesn’t appreciate it, you’ll still feel inadequate. Focus your energy on quantifiable results.

Action Suggestion: A Small Ritual to Take Back Control

What many may not know is that the most effective way to change your fortune is not to seek something, but to "manage your life well." This week, I suggest you do a very simple thing:

Tonight, find a piece of paper and write down three sentences:

What is the most important thing for me this week?
What energy-draining thing am I willing to let go of?
Who do I need to provide what resources?

After writing, take a photo and save it; look at it again in three days, and you will find that your choices start to become clearer, and your fortune will follow suit.
