Applying Auspicious Symbology
To Stimulate Your Eight Mansions

Nien Yin - Relationships

The Nien Yin sector is responsible for social and personal relationships. In the Eight Mansions Classical Literature "Pa Cai Ming Jing" (Ming Dynasty), it is stated that Nien  Yin can bring forth harmony in the family, marriage and filial offspring.

For those who want to improve their Relationships, activate the Nien Yin sector. When correctly activated, the Nien Yin star can improve successful networking in business, relationships with loved ones and kinship in the family.

To activate your Nien Yin (Relationships) sector with Auspicious Feng Shui Symbology, Feng Shui masters recommend the following:

• Matreiya the Laughing Buddha
  Nobody has a happier and more jovial personality than the great Matreiya. Matreiya is a symbol of happiness. He is also known to bestow wealth and abundance to those who are sincere and virtuous. Matreiya, the Laughing Buddha endows the most harmonious relationships among family and friends.

• The Eight Immortals
  The Eight Immortals is regarded as the emblem to tranquillity. Eight Immortals representing Eight Aspirations of Life, is a definitive Feng Shui Symbology in most Chinese homes today.
  
  The Eight Immortals also represent the Eight Trigrams of the Bagua, where all theories of Feng Shui are derived. The presence of the Eight Immortals can help bring about balance and harmony within your relationships.
  
  For those who wish to advocate the Five Element Theory, activate your Nien Yin star with the Element of Earth. The Nien Yin is related to the "Wu-Chu" Star, which is of the element of Metal. And following the Five Element theory, Metal is produced by Earth. Thus to employ the use of Earth Chi in enhancing your relationship, you can use:

• Natural Crystals
  As Natural Crystals are found from the Earth, they exert powerful Earth Chi.

• China Ware or Clay Objects
  These objects emit a reasonable amount of Earth Chi, and can be useful for the Nien Yin Star. Alternatively, you may use the Metal Element to strenghten the Nien Yin Star (which is also Metal).

• The Brass Incense Burner
  When lit, the Fire Element produces Earth Chi whilst the Metal Element of the Brass strengthens the Nien Yin Star.

• Chinese I-Ching Coins
  Traditional Chinese coins are regarded as a popular Metal remedy whenever the Element of Metal is needed in a Feng Shui assessment. They would normally use 6 coins tied in a gold or red string because the Number 6 is recognized as the Chien trigram which is of Strong Metal influence.

• The Kei-Loon
  The Mythical creature known as Kei-Loon is yet another traditional favourite when it comes to introducing Metal Chi into the environment. Kei-Loon (Chinese Unicorns) are normally painted bronze or gold in color to express its benign glittering gold influence. They are a very popular Metal cure.
