Each year a certain direction is said to be “afflicted” and is known to bring negative energy called in Feng Shui terms as “Shar Qi”.
In order to avoid the ill effects of this negative energy, a salt water cure is useful to suppress this negativity.
This phenomenon is called the visiting annual star #5.
The size of the salt-water cure depends on the size of the area to be treated. For a house, 8 kg of salt is enough per floor.
The traditional saltwater cure can be easily made at home.
You take an appropriately sized container filled with coarse kitchen salt.
You then insert 2 handfuls of copper or brass coins and one silver coin if you have one. Or old silverware.
Fill water till it goes over the salt for 1 inch. You may notice that in the process, the salt had settled down.
Within the first week, you will notice some activity, even if you don’t actually touch or move the salt-water cure.
You may notice splattering around the container, hardening of the salt to a rock-like state or simply, either the salt or the water disappearing.
In all cases, either replenish the salt or the water!
In 2025, you keep it in the NORTH EASTsector of your property.
The Chinese year ends on the 3rd of February 2026 next year.
Do not keep the salt cure in the NORTH EAST after Feb 2026. Put it in the SOUTHin 2026.
