Star 6
Star 6, White Metal, Wu Qu. The star of authority, patrons and orderly income. In the classics it's linked with the Qian trigram — the father, the leader, authority.
What the star means
The 6 is read as support from above: management, mentors, useful connections, official decisions in your favor. The 6 and 8 pairing is considered favorable for money, while 6 and 7, on the contrary, is conflictual: the tradition associates two metals together with harshness and injuries.
When it's favorable
In Period 9 the 6 behaves calmly: it isn't the main prosperous star, but it isn't harmful either. It works well in a study and in the entryway.
How to activate it
With metal and earth: metal decor, round shapes, white and gray tones, ceramics. Earth nourishes metal, so a combination of stone and metal is considered a good one.
What to avoid
Flooding it with fire: fire melts metal. A bright red area and open flame in this palace weaken the 6.
