Divination

Plum Blossom Divination Case

Divination is one of the 5 key aspects of Chinese Metaphysics study. There are various methods to do a divination but the easiest and accurate method is the Plum Blossom Divination or 梅花易数. The other method that is now popularly marketed is the Qi Men Dun Jia method which is harder to learn and very dependent on the calendar availability something the Plum Blossom method do not require.

Divination is a method to guide us and give us a hint about a future outcome. Sometimes all we need is a hint so we are better prepared for the eventualities. Let me share with you a REAL case my student did after learning the art of Plum Blossom Divination.


As a former novice learner of QMDJ, I decided to invest in Plum Blossom Divination (PBD) course offered by Master Alan Chong recently. Strictly personal opinion only, I find that sometimes in life all we want to know is a YES or NO answer. The many formulas and formations of QMDJ can easily lead us down a wrong path if we interpret the formation inaccurately. One of the important facts that I have been convinced is this, if we have 3 person asking the same question at the same time, generally the answer is the same at the specific period of time due to QMDJ formation at that particular point in time. Whereas in Plum Blossom Divination, you are likely to get 3 different answers and formations.

Back to the divination, I was bringing the kids to pet adoption centre on the 31st December. While browsing through the web and screening the available pet for adoption, I have “two minds” about the trip tomorrow. It was there and then spontaneously I decided to do a PBD casting. Taken a glance at an “ object” ie my table clock I decided to use the number image there to do my casting and form my hexagram.

Tea Talk: Master Francis Leyau in 1992…

I was going through this YouTube video by Master Isaac Chung in 1992 and was surprised to hear him mentioning Master Francis’s name in his opening speech. Sifu’s Chinese name is 刘育才.

This video was a recorded in 1992 during a Feng Shui Conference in Malacca, Malaysia. Master Francis Leyau has been active in the Feng shui world long before it was popularized to the public. There was no ‘celebrity’ styled masters during that time, there were only masters true to their own works.

Francis specializes in San Yuan Feng Shui & San Yuan Qi Men Dun Jia (QMDJ).

In this part 1 Master Chung was talking about the common Chinese parables that 1. Destiny 2. Luck 3. Feng shui 4. Deeds 5. Education….based on the study of I-Ching.

It was a very profound speech even as Master Chung spoke in Cantonese his native language.

I have summarized into this simple diagram:
