Link to this month

Monthly flying stars, explained

Xuan Kong Flying Stars (Xuan Kong Fei Xing) follows nine stars as they move through the nine palaces of the Lo Shu square: once a year for the annual chart and once a month for the monthly chart. Each star has an element and a traditional character. 1 White, 4 Green, 6 White, 8 White and 9 Purple are usually read as supportive; 2 Black, 3 Jade, 5 Yellow and 7 Red as stars to calm rather than activate.

The grid above shows the whole house for the year and the month, with a short traditional tip for every sector. Choose a sector, such as the direction of your front door or bedroom, to see both stars for it at once.

Why the months don't match the calendar

Flying-star months follow the solar terms, the same calendar used in BaZi. The Tiger month (month 1) starts at Li Chun around 4 February and the Rat month (month 11) starts at Major Snow around 7 December. The start of a Gregorian month therefore usually still belongs to the previous flying-star month, which is why every page lists its exact dates.

Monthly pages such as /tools/flying-stars/2026-12 contain no personal data, so they can be shared and bookmarked. Flying stars describe the time layer of a building; for the personal layer, start with the Kua number calculator. Both are traditional cultural practices, not building, health or financial advice.
