The Year 2020 is known as The Year of the Yang Metal Rat - Geng Zi.
Rat is the 1st animal in the 12 Chinese Zodiac signs and is part of the Water cycle in the cycle of
the season of five elements in Feng shui. In the Year 2020, taking into account the elements in
combine and clash, based on the Feng shui Destiny Analysis known as the Four Pillars of Destiny
or Bazi ( Phat chee), the two main elements in clash are Water and Metal. The elements are
symbolized as Yang Metal element, sitting on top of Water Rat. |
Element Metal relates to weapons, Sword, Rock and Minerals. The characteristics of Yang Metal are
brave, steadfast, unyielding and righteous. The other traits of Yang Metal are heartless, flaunt, ruthless and
tyrannical. Yang Water Rat is connected to placid water, cold water or rain. Water is related to wisdom and
intelligence, Rat is a clever, tricky, and tactical animal. The combination of the yearly elements indicate a
year of mutually supporting year, with opportunities showing up in many fronts, but decisions need to be
taken with a clear mind as one may be misled.
The year is good to prepare for and do long term planning, hence being cautious and having a
clear vision will help. Try to be modest in your venture and do not be tempted to eat more than
you can chew. Emotional imbalances may surface; hence stay calm and do not over-react to situations. The
year is also strong in terms of attraction of opposite genders, which could lead to scandals, if proper care is
not exercised in interactions.
Industries, which may benefit are Fire-related like energy, power, restaurants, entertainment, Earth- related
Industries like Real estate, property development, mining, insurance software and metal element-related
like automobile, banking and heavy engineering will do good too. Water element related industries like
shipping, communication, transport and wood related like media, books, fashion and ecology and
environmental may fall below expectations in terms of performance.
Adapting Feng shui, one can avert the difficult phase in store in the Year of the Rat and mitigate its ill effects
and move towards prosperity. Primary focus to stay healthy, happy and contended would be quite achievable
through proper Feng shui protection both for the home and the occupants and the entire zodiac.
In the year 2020, the animal signs which receive good support from the year of Zodiac Rat are
Sheep, Rooster, monkey, dragon and Ox. The Zodiac which will have to protect and defend from
the clash with the annual Zodiac sign are the Rat and Horse; hence it is recommended to carry a
Jade pendant of Ox, to mitigate the negative afflictions. However with proper protection and care,
the afflicted Zodiac sign can also smoothly sail through the year.
 Feng Shui protection to your home
To ensure that the home is well protected, apart from the advice for the individual Zodiac, the following
basic Feng shui corrections would be extremely beneficial.
