In Feng Shui circles, folks generally know of the following annual 3 Big Sha (三大杀) which are:
- The Grand Duke Jupiter or Tai Sui (太岁)
- Three Killings or San Sha (三杀）
- Five Yellow (五黄)
In this article or post, we shall talk about the effects of the Five Yellow on the household. The Five Yellow is also known as the Lian Zhen (廉贞) star. The effect of the Five Yellow is several times greater than the Three Killings and the Grand Duke Jupiter Star. Therefore, folks must be extra mindful not to trigger its negative energies.
If there is any digging of the ground, drilling of holes or wall breaking taking place in the house sector where the Five Yellow resides, the health and luck of the household will suffer i.e. turn bad. In particular, the health effects on the household’s occupants would be negative. It is said that the negative effects would be seen and felt within 100 days of the earth digging, wall breaking or hole drilling event.
The table below shows the sector which the Five Yellow (五黄) occupies for the years from 2011 to 2023.

The Five Yellow flies into Gen sector next year. So, refer to part 3 above for the potential adverse effects. Occupants whose houses with their main door here and folks with rooms in the NE sector should take extra precautions to keep the sector as quiet as possible i.e. avoid any drilling, renovation, wall breaking or ground digging.

Cures for the Five Yellow
The following cures are normally used to counter the Five Yellow. They are:
- Salt with coins cure
- Wind-Chime
- A pair of bronze Pi-Xie (辟邪)
Have either of these items ready for placement before Feb 2016. Of the above three, I find the wind-chime to be the simplest to install. If you need to drill a hole to place a hook to install, please do so before the li chun (立春) of 2016.
In the meantime, it’s going to be Oktoberfest soon. So, don’t worry, be happy. :))
