Dear All,
After Dong Zhi (冬至) aka Winter Solstice of Year 2010, all Paying of Gratitude to Lord Tai Sui of Geng Yin Year (庚寅年太歲) will end (for those who miss this, usually will do it before 16th Day of Lunar 12 Month of Geng Yin Year or the Day of Thanksgiving Ceremony 答謝神恩 or before 24th Day of Lunar 12 Month).
And after sending off of Deities on the 24th Day of Lunar 12 Month of Geng Yin Year (庚寅年), 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 Xin Mao Year - known as General Fan Ning (范寧).
So when is the Best timing or Accurate Day to pay respect to General Fan Ning?
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 Xin Mao Year?
Li Chun Day for Xin Mao Year falls on 2nd Day of Lunar 1 Month, 04 Feb 2011, after 12:32Pm.
Where can we pay respect to Lord Tai Sui of Xin Mao 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):
Yue Hai Qing Temple (粵海清廟) at Philip Road (in CBD, they got the oldest set of 60 Tai Sui in Singapore 六十太歲)
Yu Huang Temple (玉皇殿) at Havelock Road (with temporary tablet for Lord Tai Sui)
Jade Emperor Temple (天公廟) at Telok Blangah Road (2 Temples there, with Old statues of Dang Nian Tai Sui 當年太歲)
An Ji Sheng Wang Temple (安濟聖王廟) at West Coast (with 60 Tai Sui 六十太歲)
Lei Yin Temple (雷音寺) at Bukit Merah View (with One statue for Dang Nian Tai Sui)
Jin Lan Temple (金蘭廟) at Kim Tian Road Tiong Bahru (with the Biggest & Oldest Tai Sui)
& more…
So what are the Offerings that needed to prepare?
Usually the Temples that dedicate Altars to Lord Tai Sui will have set of offerings prepared for Devotees, but if you needed to get extra shares, here are the suggested items:
1 - One set of Mandarins (5 quantities 大吉)
2 - One set of Chinese Tea Leaves & Traditional Cookies (Jian He 餞盒)
3 - One set of Lord Tai Sui Incense-paper (optional 太歲金)
4 - One set of Lord Tai Sui Robe (in Blue Color 藍色太歲袍)
5 - One set of Lord Tai Sui Talisman (optional, beware that, only choose the Taoism one, not those mix with other Religions Wordings/Charms on it 正統道教太歲符)
6 - One set of Incense (not to short, medium length will be best - more than 48cm 富貴長命香)
7 - An Ang Bao with an amount of S$1.20 or S$12.00 (for Xin Mao Year, there are only 12 Lunar Months)
8 - A Spiritual Petition to report on the name, age, DOB and address of the person who paying respect to Lord Tai Sui (some Temples will prepare for the devotees, if not, can always look for any Taoist Spiritual People for one 安奉太歲疏文)

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:
http://javewu.multiply.com/photos/album/116
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 Fan Ning, All necessary blessings will be bestowed to you and your family.

after 12:32pm, you mean, 04 Feb 2011 AFTERNOON, right? May one also do it after 17:00? Thx.
ReplyDeletevery nice information
ReplyDeleteYup, afternoon. Yes, you can do after 1700hrs.
ReplyDeleteThank you :P
ReplyDeleteOne more place to pray taisui would be our famous LOYANG TUA PEK KONG..
ReplyDeleteHi Jave,I did not quite understand what you meant when you said this: "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 Xin Mao Year - known as General Fan Ning"
ReplyDeleteDo you mean everyone who was in conflict with Lord Tai Sui of Geng Yin, need also pay their respect this year to the Lord Tai Sui of Xin Mao?Is it not people who are in conflict this year(Xin Mao)need to pay respect,right?
Does a Tai Sui coin not need to be enhanced?
What does this Wooden Ru Yi Pendant from Zhen Ren Temple (真人宮木如意) look like? Do I just walk into the temple and buy it? What about the Spiritual Petition? Can I get it from you?
ReplyDeleteHow should we use the Spiritual Petition? What are the steps?
Yes, for those who are affected last yr, it is also a must to pay respect to the new year Tai Sui, cos some of the people will still get affected by the Tai Sui Energy for another 3-6 Months. So need the New Tai Sui's attention when the New Year started.
ReplyDeleteYes, a good Tai Sui Coin must be enhanced
For the moment, I dont think Zhen Ren Temple gives out the Ru Yi le, but for sure, it can be bought at Rochor or Waterlook areas.
ReplyDeleteOf cos you can get the Petition from me, I will prepare for you. Do write to me with your particulars, so that I can filled in for you and then guide you on the steps. Pls do write to me at my email javecxwu@gmail.com
So Jave
ReplyDeleteIf we got affected this year, then next year we still have to pay respect to the next year Tai Sui, right?
Yes yes.
ReplyDeleteDear Jave
ReplyDeleteIf a person reaches 60 year old and over, does he need to pay respect as well if his horoscope are affected this year?
Yes, pls do
ReplyDeleteJave
ReplyDeleteCan you tell me this xin mao year, which horoscopes need to visit the Tai Sui?
I can't find it on your blog.
hi Shifu jave, happy chinese new year to you.
ReplyDeletei would like to ask shifu a question.
i just helped my dad pray tai sui at loyang tua pek gong, but i did not bring my dad's shirt along.
but i did gave my dad's particulars like full chinese name, birth date, and time of birth to them.
is it ok for me not to bring my dad's shirt when praying tai sui?
cos the temple got give the tai sui coin(not sure if is it tai sui coin, but has the 12 zodiac ba gua engraved onto it) also, just that i have to give it to my dad.
thanks a lot master jave
Hi dasuka, I try to help u by answering your question. Rabbit and Rooster are considered having main conflict, while Rat and Horse have side conflict with Tai Sui this year. Thus these 4 horoscope need to pray to Tai Sui this year (2011 Xin Mao year)
ReplyDeleteBest regards
Hi ahdeck, I am not Jave, but I try to answer your question and hope it can help. As far as I know the spiritual petition (filled with one's name, birthdate, time of birth and address) is the original practice of praying Tai Sui, thus it is more important than shirt. Regarding the Tai Sui coin, usually it should be enhanced to activate the protection. Since it is from temple, it can be considered as already enhanced.
ReplyDeletemy 2 cents :-)
Thanks yangjia88
ReplyDeleteYou mentioned that in the offering to Tai Sui must have One set of Lord Tai Sui Robe (in Blue Color 藍色太歲袍). Every morning I chanted the Tai Sui Mantra and cloth I wear is blue colour also worn it during offering to Tai Sui.Is it ok?Blue is my lucky colour
ReplyDeleteSorry for the late reply.
ReplyDeleteThis Year is Rat, Rabbit, Horse & Rooster.
Very good reply. Yup, Ahdeck, like what yang had mentioned, once the particulars are being fill-up, it will be fine and the after effect will be good. So do not worry if there is no shirt or anything personal belongings.
ReplyDeleteIt is ok, so no worries :P
ReplyDelete@yangjia thank you so much bro, i feel more relieved now :) you are really knowledgeable!
ReplyDelete@jave shifu thank you so much shi fu! i was really worried before that, thank goodness i bump into your wonderful website, must be fate :)
Thanks for the support. Do not worry in the future. Cos Lord Tai Sui will understand de.
ReplyDeleteHope you and your family had a Wonderful Lunar New Year.
thanks jave shifu :D hope you have a great lunar new year too, and a great rabbit year ahead!
ReplyDeleteThank you :P
ReplyDeleteHello Master Jave Wu
ReplyDeleteDo all temple chant the same Tai Sui mantra as yours or different?Cause I pray to Tai Sui and China priest at Chye Sen Temple at Senoko area chanted using their native language,trying to understand what the chant but unable to understand. Interesting parts was 2 priests using different method to enhanting the tailismen as Ist priests chanted Huat Ah, Huat Ah on it but 2 priests (which enhanting my tailismen) do some chanting on it. So Huat Ah,Huat Ah is part of mantra enhanting the tailismen?
Hahaha, almost the same, just that we need to see their Lineage, such as Zheng Yi Sect or Quan Zhen Sect.
ReplyDeleteHuat is a very local form of Blessing word. It does not include in any of the Taoist Mantras or Scriptures.
Hello Master Jave Wu
ReplyDeleteMay I ask what your lineage - Zheng Yi Sect or Quan Zhen Sect?Maybe you can share about this two sect
I'm Zheng Yi. I did share before in this Web, maybe you can search around.
ReplyDeleteIf not, you can visit Taoist Mission Website at http://www.taoism.org.sg/
They will be able to assist you more on their Culture on Quan Zhen.
ahdeck, you are welcome :-) My knowledge is just like a drop of water
ReplyDeleteDasuka, you are welcome :-)
ReplyDeleteHello Master Jave Wu,
ReplyDeleteI knew Diety Tai Sui from a fortune teller in Toa Payoh in 1990. Those time my career and luck was down.True to his word, I won lottery. The fortune teller never advice me to thank him cause I do not have the knowledge of worshipping him those day. I admitted to SGH for one month. After analysis,I gave thank to Diety Tai Sui after I discharged. I have smooth sailing in career and luck is good after thanking him. Many ppl ask to pray to Diety Tai Sui but not told to thank him.
Dear All,
ReplyDeleteFor those who have requested for the Spiritual Petition for Honouring Lord Tai Sui, the Petitions had been sent and Lord Tai Sui had been honoured on behalf of the Individual Person. For those who wished to make contribution to LSM, Jave appreciate the Sincerity. Due to LSM is not making profit on the Honouring, so for those who really wish to contribute, you all can proceed to any nearby Temples around your place to make the donation. Last of ALL, Million Thanks and wishes everyone having a Good Year ahead.
Hi Master, for this Tai Sui talisman, is it burned off with the offerings or is it pasted onto the home altar? Also, some people write their names and date of birth at the bottom corner of the talisman. Is it necessary? Thanks.
ReplyDeleteIt will needed to be paste on the Home Altar for a Year, till after Dong Zhi, then we send it off. Not necessary to write the name.
