In Feng Shui tradition, Tai Sui is the commander of the year, changing every year and having the power to bring luck, health, and well-being or to prevent accidents, quarrels, and misfortunes.
It is why, every year, it is necessary to have it on our side. We must wear its image under different dorms: Tai Sui card, Tai Sui amulet, or Tai Sui plaque or painting for the house and office.
According to the Chinese Horoscope, the Chinese New Year 2023 is the Year of the Water Rabbit, starting on January 22, 2023, and ending on February 9, 2024. In 2023, the Chinese zodiac sign governing the lunar year is the Rabbit and is associated with the Yin Water element.
What is Fan Tai Sui?
According to traditional Chinese astrology, the 8th day of the first lunar month is an important time to pray to Fan Tai Sui. This is because the 8th day is believed to be when the God of the Year arrives and begins to exert its influence on the world. Praying to Fan Tai Sui on this day is thought to help protect against the negative effects of the annual celestial influence and bring good luck and fortune for the coming year.
There are many different ways to pray to Fan Tai Sui, such as by offering incense, performing rituals, making offerings, or reciting mantras. Some people may also choose to wear special talismans or amulets to protect themselves from the negative effects of Fan Tai Sui.
The Feng Shui year of 2023 (from February 4, 2023, to February 3, 2024) corresponds to the Kua number 4.
In 2023, Tai Sui will be Pi Shi and will affect the North-East sector. The animal in direct conflict is the Rooster, and the animals in indirect conflict are the Tiger and Rat.

In Feng Shui, the creature known to appease Tai Sui is the celestial animal Pi Yao, so our recommendation is to always place one in the house or office.
Pi Yao statuette, amulet, or keyring are Feng Shui remedies recommended to all the zodiac signs for permanent protection. They have the energy to stimulate the inner force, motivation, strength, and determination, allowing you to take full advantage of all other types of luck.

When to Pray to the Tai Sui
Praying to Fan Tai Sui is a traditional practice in Chinese astrology that is believed to help mitigate the negative effects of the annual celestial influence on a person’s luck and fortune. However, the specific timing and methods of prayer can vary depending on the individual and the cultural context.
In general, it is common to pray to Fan Tai Sui at the beginning of the Chinese New Year, which is the first day of the lunar calendar and coincides with the start of the new year in the Chinese zodiac cycle. This is because the God of the Year is believed to take effect on this day, and praying to Fan Tai Sui is thought to provide protection and blessings for the coming year.
There are many different ways to pray to Fan Tai Sui, such as by offering incense, performing rituals, making offerings, or reciting mantras. Some people may also choose to wear special talismans or amulets to protect themselves from the negative effects of Fan Tai Sui. It is important to note that the concept of Fan Tai Sui is based on traditional Chinese astrology and is not supported by scientific evidence.
The Most Affected Zodiac Signs by Tai Sui in 2023
In traditional Chinese astrology, each Chinese zodiac sign is believed to be associated with a specific direction, element, and annual celestial influence. The annual celestial influence, or Fan Tai Sui, is believed to have a greater impact on certain zodiac signs than others.
For example, it is believed that the zodiac signs most affected by Fan Tai Sui directly conflict with the God of the Year. This includes the zodiac signs opposite the God of the Year on the Chinese zodiac wheel and those located in the same direction as the God of the Year but are of a different element.
It is also believed that the zodiac signs that are most affected by Fan Tai Sui are those that are in the “Three Killings” position, which is the direction opposite the God of the Year. The “Three Killings” are thought to bring bad luck and obstacles to those born under these zodiac signs.
Again, it is essential to note that the concept of Fan Tai Sui is based on traditional Chinese astrology and is not supported by scientific evidence.
Rooster
The Roosters will have much to deal with in the Water Rabbit year. They will have to make considerable efforts to get what they want and work twice as hard.
Tiger
Family-wise, the Tigers will suffer immense and irreversible loss. Healing will take a long time, but they go forwards with their heads held up.
Things will not go well financially either because they will lose a significant amount of money at the beginning of the year.
