"Good things come to those who wait" is a popular saying, as is "patience pays." But when most people study feng shui, they want to learn what kinds of things they can change in their environment to create immediate benefits. And in fact, that is part of the mystique of feng shui, that people make a few alterations to their surroundings and within days or weeks their luck changes. The concept of "current luck" includes tapping into current timely energies that can help a person generate or harness right now. Be it health, money or love most of us want to see what we can improve with tangible results right away. There is also a concept called "future luck," where you sow the seeds and reap the rewards some time further down the road. In a traditional feng shui analysis, it sometimes becomes evident that an occupant's house will help them garner good luck in the future. That future might be years away or decades away, but it is still a positive. Some of these current and future luck formulas are revealed through observations of the surrounding natural landscape and sometimes they are revealed with the orientation of a house. For example, we are currently living in what is known as Period 8. Period 8 is a 20-year Era that started in 2004 and will go until 2024. This Period 8 Era is associated with the direction of Northeast. Right now, during Period 8, if a house faces Northeast (facing between 205-245 degrees), then it is considered a little extra lucky right now for financial luck. If a house is "sitting" Northeast, meaning the back side faces Northeast, then this house type is right now a little extra supportive for the health and relationships of the occupants. This aspect to orientation is only one of about 50 things to check in the analysis of a house; it is one of many layers. Other aspects to defining the current or future luck potential of an occupant requires training in assessing the floor plan since every single house will have areas that can generate current and future luck. In the upcoming Period 9, which begins in fiften years (2024), that Era is currently considered the near future. The number 9 is associated with the direction of South, so if a house had some very auspicious features to its south sector, that could be one indication that the future money luck is on tis way. Houses go through a number of different phases throughout their complete cycle which lasts for 180 years and then starts repeating. These phases and cycles are discussed in all of Kartar Diamond's books.
