🧭 Compass Chart Insights
In August 2025, Star #8 is located in the northeast, directly above its original position, which enhances the energy of Hakai Power—the power of pause and transformation, revolution, unexpected events, mountains, towers, family, and home. This energy mainly affects your self.
The influence of Hakai Power brings unexpected changes. These can be avoided by accepting them and responding flexibly.
On the yearly compass, Star #8 is positioned above Star #5, which represents the power of kingship, decay and renewal, past ,love, the elderly, and emptiness—affecting your environment.
The opposite point is Star #2, bringing the power of foundation, femininity, motherly love, earth, nurturing, and supportive roles.
Star #2 also locates atop Star #8 on the annual chart.People around you expect you this month.Star#2 people or action will open doors for future luck.
Taking these four stars and the Yi-Ching message into account, we decode the fortune for August.
🧿 Yi-Ching Messages
🔸 Yourself (Hexagram 52):
“A mountain is immovable” is good. Moving is not the only ability. It is important to quietly observe your current situation and your own heart. This leads directly to future progress.
🔸 Your Environment (Hexagrams 52 for men, 23 for women):
- For men (or women at work): Same message—“A mountain is immovable.” Stay calm, reflect, and refrain from rushing.
- For women (or men in private life): Now is the time to be defensive. Pushing things forward will backfire. If you rush, everything you’ve built may collapse. Recognize that your current foundation is unstable, and realize what must be addressed first.
📌 Advice & Key Points
1. 🛑 Pause and Change
This year, you’ve overcome challenges through the power of Anken (stability). But now, both July and August are influenced by Hakai (destructive) energy.
You may experience a sense of stagnation, limits, or emotional fatigue—but these are signs that you need rest and transformation. A new beginning will emerge toward the end of August, in an improved form.
Don’t resist this pause—it’s your soul signaling that change is necessary.
Whether it’s joint pain, chronic fatigue, a plateau in your growth, or an unclear direction—now is the time to stop, reflect, and restructure. These pauses are not failures, but stepping stones toward something greater.
This month offers a rare chance to clearly see your environment and yourself. After this pause, reform and positive change will begin.
Be prepared for changes in your direction—some may be internal, others may come from the outside. You might not like all of them at first, but they’re all beneficial. Please accept them with grace.
This is also a good time for job changes, relocation, home renovation, or trying new shops or salons. Embrace change proactively. (Check the Lucky Direction before moving.)
2. 💪 Don’t Lose Heart
Even if you face a problem that feels like a dead end, it is not something you cannot overcome.
Life only gives us challenges we are ready to handle.
This month’s problems are also opportunities for growth—so don’t give up.
When seeking advice, turn to your mother, wife, or an older woman. These people can give you guidance that boosts your luck.
3. 🤝 Accept Differences in Values
Star #8 people often have high goals and structure their actions around them. That’s a wonderful trait—but others may not share your mindset.
Star #8 people who can see the big picture from the mountaintop—but this month, try descending the mountain and looking at life from the perspective of others.
Avoid deciding actions solely based on your ideal “what should be.” Instead, talk to others and get their opinions.
Star #8 is careful and thoughtful—like walking with a cane before tripping. That’s great foresight, but this month, try not to act based on problems that haven’t happened yet.
Instead, listen to the people around you. Let their feedback guide your actions.
The big transformation needed this month is within you.
