What Does "Throwing Away Old Things" Mean in the Feng Shui Fortune Calendar?

In feng shui, old unneeded things are a source of stagnation: they "hold on" to the past and keep the new from coming. But throwing them away should also be done on the right day. On a lucky day the heaviness attached to things is believed to leave with them, while on an unlucky day you may "throw out" something valuable or lose your luck.

This query has a logic similar to "cleaning": days that "close", "destroy" and "remove" are good, and days that "fill" and "establish" are bad.

What the query covers:

• taking out old furniture and broken appliances;
• throwing away old clothes, shoes and dishes;
• clearing storerooms, balconies and garages of junk;
• taking things to recycling or collection points;
• getting rid of things tied to painful memories;
• deleting old files, emails and documents.

When to use a different query:

• sorting through accumulated things before deciding what to keep: "analysis of old rubble";
• cleaning, washing and laundry: "cleaning, laundry";
• selling unneeded things: "sale of property";
• giving things to people in need: "charity";
• rearranging: "rearrangement of furniture".

How the Calendar rates the day. For throwing away old things the favourable Day Officers are Close, Danger, Destruction and Remove. The unfavourable ones are Full, Open, Stable and Establish: on such days it is better not to carry anything out of the house. Among the lunar mansions, Ox, Maiden, Ghost, Willow, Turtle Beak, Astride, Void and Heart, usually unfavourable, are good, while Star, Dipper, Bow, Orion, Room, Chariot, Horn, Wall and Guardian are unfavourable. The Star of Losses, the Separating Day, the Personal Destroyer and Personal Robbery Sha are favourable: you deliberately "lose" and "separate" yourself from what you do not need.

Tip. First sort your things on a day that suits "analysis of old rubble", then take out what you do not need on a lucky day for this query. Such a "release" is especially helpful before important new beginnings.
