ABOUT NINE STAR KI
Nine Star Ki uses nine "stars," representing the five elements (Wood, Fire, Earth, Metal, Water) in yin-yang configurations, to map energy flow across nine directions. Each year, month, and day has its own pattern, and your Life Star — determined by your birth date — interacts with that pattern uniquely.
Note: Direction readings follow one common interpretation; schools differ, so please use them as a reference and judge from the position of the stars. Map bearings become less precise over longer distances.
Find your direction. Move with intention. Live with the seasons.
