Feng Shui, BaZi and matchmaking
In ancient Chinese traditions, it is believed that Ba-Zi(Ba-Zhi) and Feng Shui can control one’s destiny. Feng Shui, while involves re-arranging your physical living environments such as furnitures and house, is controllable. On the other hand, Ba-Zi is fixed and it is determined once you’re born.
What exactly is Ba-Zi?
Ba-Zi (or eight characters) is an ancient astrology measure translated from the exact time of your birth. Basically Ba-Zi consist of eight elements such has year, hour, season, and other things. It is believed that these eight elements set one’s destiny in life. So this pretty much means that there’s not much you can do about it if you’re born with a bad Ba-Zi. It is also believed that you should make the best life decisions based on your own Ba-Zi in regards to career, travel, relationship and living. For all you techies out there, here’s a link to a sourceforge site that has a software that you can use calculate your ownBa-Zi!
The most interesting thing is that Ba-Zi is also used in traditional Chinese matchmaking. For example, when two people are about to get married or get setup with a pre-arranged date, both can have their Ba-Zi analyzed to see if they are compatible. It is believed that a campatible Ba-Zi between two peoples in a relationship will result in a marriage with more happieness and better fortune. The idea is actually pretty similiar to western astrological signs.
Have you and your loved one analyzed your Ba-Zi yet?

Quoted for truth. -_-
These Astrological thingies can be more or less used as a guide, if one is strong of will, one is able to break past these so called pre-destined thingies.
Cheers!
