Applying Auspicious Symbology
To Stimulate Your Eight Mansions

Lui Sha (Six Killings)

The Six Killings or Lui Sha star brings spiteful relationships, petty disputes and disharmony to the family. In Eight Mansions principles, the Lui Sha is associated with the Wen Cu star which is the element of Water.

Feng Shui Masters often advised that the Main Door, Bedroom or house stove not face the Lui Sha direction or malicious influence can be expected. The best solution is to place the toilet or wash room in this sector to suppress the evil influences of the Lui Sha. Unfortunately, it is not always possible and thus the alternative ways to minimize the evil effects would be to use the Five Element Theory or Auspicious Feng Shui Symbolism.

Feng Shui Master in Hong Kong and Taiwan advocate some of the following methods to negate the Lui Sha:

• Indoor Plants
  Live leafy and robust plants can exert good wood chi that can weaken the water based Lui Sha star

• Dragons
  Dragons in Feng Shui symbology is associated with the East, which is the Element of Wood, spring Wood to be exact. Of course there are various types of Dragons, some say that they are of the Water element while some are adamant they belong to the Wood category.
  
  Dragons being BOTH wood and water can be utilized to enfeeble the evil forces of the Lui Sha.
  
  Dragons symbolize more than just good fortune. They are associated with nobility, honor, fame and recognition. A perfect form of symbology for the home.

• Matreiya The Happy Buddha
  The Nature of the Lui Sha is to bring about unhappiness in the form of dispute and spiteful relationships. To cure depression and unrest, the Happy Buddha is the one of the best deity to resort to.
  
  Matreiya brings not only Happiness in abundance, he is also believed to bring material gains and infinite wisdom. If you want good relationships, suppress the Lui Sha (Six Killings) with the help of the Happy Buddha.

• Kuan Yin Bells
  The Kuan Yin bells give a blissful and joyful jingle. It is believed that each jingle  exerts a sutra line that is inscribed on the Bell portraying the great Goddess of Mercy.
  
  The Metallic Chi exerted from the bells is excellent in pacifying the Wo Hai star.
