This chart is a combination of items learned by Chinese astrology, Flying Star and Feng Shui, and I put it all together to help me have everything in one place for multiple purposes (personal alignment, personal astrology, home alignment, etc), though all info does not necessarily connect to each other, and using the information requires knowledge of the impacts of personal alignment, house alignment, annual energies and other considerations.
