SOUTH has the fortunate purple 9 star in 2013, which is a fire element annual star. Be sure not to put down the fire element of this star with water feng shui element items, such as mirrors, colors black and blue, or actual water features or images of water in the South. Also avoid a strong presence of the earth feng shui element here.
Fresh flowers, candles, happy images, etc - all the good vibe items - will only strengthen the already happy potential of this auspicious area. Work with number 9 to multiply the benefits. For example, you can have an arrangement of 9 red or purple candles, or an image of 9 pink flowers. 9 Chinese coins are also welcome here in 2013, as well as various designs with the very auspicious mystic knot. Another traditional Chinese feng shui cure - the crystal tree (in fire colour crystals such as amethyst or citrine) - can go well here.
As in 2013 all stars / numbers are in their original houses ( see the Lo Shu Square), most of the bagua guidelines for South area (and any other area) can be used for annual cures in 2013.
