How to apply it at home
Li is fire, light and visibility. A 9 is traditionally advised not to darken the southern area: heavy curtains and a cluttered corner there read as a fire that's been put out. Place the workspace facing east and the bed with the headboard to the southeast or south.
Wood feeds fire, so plants in the east and southeast areas are considered supportive for a 9. Water puts out fire: the tradition advises against large aquariums in the south.
What to keep in mind
Period 9 began in 2024, and star 9 became the main prosperous star. This has nothing to do with the Kua number, although the matching digits regularly confuse readers.
