Rising Phoenix

For regeneration, renewal, and new opportunities

The Phoenix, King of Birds, is famed for its ability to rise from the ashes and rebuild from nothing. It is the epitome of Fire energy, the celestial guardian of the South, and one of the four creatures that form the basis of Landscape Feng Shui. In 2023, the South plays host to the auspicious Prosperity Star #8, and North in 2024, a Big Auspicious Star from the 24 Mountains, making this an extremely auspicious sector.

As we emerge from a difficult Tiger year and head towards a more conciliatory Rabbit Year, this is a year of rebuilding, and there is no symbol to better activate this kind of luck than the glorious rising phoenix. This king of winged creatures also represents many new opportunities on the horizon; more than that, it symbolizes the ability to capture those opportunities. 

As we are also in the advent of the Period of 9, which begins Feb 4^th, 2024, the #9 becomes more and more important and more auspicious, and the Phoenix is the personification of that star number.
