FAQ: Are these Stars Destiny?

Q. If I have an Affliction Star, must I suffer its consequences from a past life?

A. No. The purpose of Myeongri (Saju) is to understand, prepare for, and transcend destiny. Affliction Stars represent a powerful energy that must be redirected.

Negative energies must be channeled into 'saving' professions (Hwalin-up), self-improvement, and charity to overcome the effects. Blessing Stars require continued virtuous action to ensure the luck is not squandered.
