Dear All,

After Dong Zhi (冬至) aka Winter Solstice of Year 2009, all Paying of Gratitude to Lord Tai Sui of Ji Chou Year (己丑年太歲) will end (for those who miss this, usually will do it before 16th Day of Lunar 12 Month of Ji Chou Year or the Day of Thanksgiving Ceremony 答謝神恩).

And after sending off of Deities on the 24th Day of Lunar 12 Month of Ji Chou Year (己丑年), all those who got the Effect of Conflict with Lord Tai Sui of Geng Yin Year (庚寅年), can prepared to pay their respect to Lord Tai Sui of Ji Chou Year - known as General Wu Huan (鄔桓).

So when is the Best timing or Accurate Day to pay respect to General Wu Huan?

According to Chinese Custom & Taoist Practice Records, the Best & Accurate Day to pay respect to a the Lord Tai Sui of the New Lunar Year starts on Li Chun Day (立春) - which means that, the Initial Starts of the Spring Season (a lot of people may think that the 1st Day of Lunar 1 Month is the start of a New Lunar Year, but actually is not, if we are to go according to the Old Ancient Calendar, Li Chun shall be the actual day of the arrival of Spring Season).

So when is Li Chun Day for Geng Yin Year?

Li Chun Day for Geng Yin Year falls on 21st Day of Lunar 12 Month, 04 Feb 2010, after 06:42Am.

So for those who needed to pay respect to Lord Tai Sui of Geng Yin Year, you can do it in Morning of the 22nd Day of Lunar 12 Month, 05 Feb 2010.

Where can we pay respect to Lord Tai Sui of Ji Chou Year?

Here’re a few recommended Official Temples that oneself can visit (remember, while Paying Respect to Lord Tai Sui of a New Year, do not go to any Temples that got the Nether World Deities as the Main Deity):

Protection & Blessing Items for Oneself

Recently, many People had approached me for the enquiry of what Items to be bought in-order to do Self-protection for the Conflict-issue against the Lord Tai Sui.

Here are a few items that oneself can get:

1) Wu Di Qian aka The Five Emperors Coin (五帝錢)

Pls refer to link: http://javewu.multiply.com/reviews/item/70

2) Wooden Pendant (木制墜子)

For example, Wooden Ru Yi Pendant from Zhen Ren Temple (真人宮木如意)

3) Golden Jewelry (金飾)

For example, Gold Chain with a Chinese Character of Fu aka Prosperity

4) Tai Sui Coin (太歲錢)

This can be bought from All Feng Shui Stores.

5) A Copy of Lord Tai Sui Praise Mantra (太歲寶誥)

Remember, the Tai Sui Mantra must be written by oneself, do not ask anyone to do the copying or writing on behalf of you. This Mantra can be written or copy after 24th Day of Lunar 12 Month.

The Mantra can be found in:

Copy it on a Red or Yellow Paper with the dimension of 10cm by 10cm.

After complete writing, on the Day of Paying Respect to Lord Tai Sui, bring it along and then before burning off the Paper Offerings, bring out the Mantra and bring it on top of the Urn, go 3 rounds on top of the Incense Fume and then keep it in the Wallet.

Whenever Oneself feels uneasy or frustrated, take it out and recite once, the Issues that you faced will somehow be solved.

Last of All, wish everyone after paying respect to General Wu Huan, All necessary blessings will be bestowed to you and your family.
