Carrying Out Investments
"Carrying out investments" is the fourth most popular query in our Chinese Fortune Calendar and the most popular financial one. It means that you put your own money to work so that it brings income. In Chinese metaphysics money is energy that must not only arrive but also be kept. That is why an investment day should both "fill" and "store".
What the query covers:
- buying stocks, bonds, fund units, currency or precious metals;
- investing in your own or someone else's business, buying a stake in a company;
- buying property as an income investment;
- topping up a brokerage or investment account;
- in a broader sense, any investment of resources that you expect to pay off, such as a major equipment purchase for your business.
When to use a different query:
- you are looking for money, such as a loan or an investor for your project: "applying for a loan, investment";
- you are putting money on a savings deposit: "placing money in a bank";
- you are opening an account: "opening a bank account";
- you are selling assets and withdrawing money: "withdrawing money from an account, closing an account";
- you are lending money to a specific person: "lending money to someone".
How the Calendar rates the day. For investments the favourable Day Officers are Full, Stable and Success. The unfavourable ones are Close, Control, Destruction and Remove. Note Remove: it is a good day for treatment and cleaning, but not for investing, because it "removes" what you put in. The day is supported by the Storage stars (Year, Monthly and Personal Storage Star), the Heavenly Star of Wealth, the Star of Prosperity and the Travelling Horse. It is weakened by Robbery Sha, the No Wealth Day, the Nonreturn Day and the Star of Losses.
Important. The Chinese Fortune Calendar helps you choose a favourable time, but it does not replace analysis of the investment itself and is not financial advice. A good date strengthens a good decision but will not fix a bad one. With the Personal Calendar connected, your Bazi chart is taken into account, including your Personal Storage Star and Personal Robbery Sha.
