In a Zi Wei Dou Shu chart, there are a total of 12 palaces and each represents a 10 years luck cycle. Hence, one can agree that an average human being will not live for more than 120 years of age. But on the other hand, we can also applaud the fact that it is possible for human beings to live beyond the age of 100 years old!

 It might sound impossible today to live to such a ripe old age due to the following reasons:

1)      we battled our lives for money and fame  and the notion of health care becomes meaningless until we fall ill.

2)      We are so embroiled in our hate/love relationship with the people around us until we become emotionally drained.

3)      And of course, there are people who chose to give up their live for some reasons.

Are there people who managed to live beyond a hundred of age? Jeanne Louise Calment was a French woman with the longest confirmed lifespan in history at age 122 years 164 days and she is not the only centenarian in our history. In fact, The United States currently has the greatest number of centenarians in the world, numbering over 55,000 in the year 2005. This is followed closely by Japan, China and France. Inspired?

According to Taiwan famed physician Hu Ren Wen, one is sick because the heart is sick. Modern people do not like to discover more about the condition of their body. They only start to panic when they have been confirmed by the doctors to be terminally ill.

Chinese Astrology can help us in the battle against sickness. It is the tool to allowing us to live to a ripe old age. For example, a  Zi Wei Dou Shu chart is designed with a health palace. This health palace allows us to detect any health defect that a person may be born with. Not too long ago, I managed to detect that one forum member might have been born with a persistent health problem or even hereditary disease. And it was proven correct! However, the strange thing is even the doctors could not manage to diagnose what was the source of the health problem.

Having said that, the luck cycle in a Zi Wei Dou Shu can help us to identify health problems that might not have surfaced until a later stage of life.  knowing  your health problem beforehand is not to frighten you but to help you seek the necessary precaution or treatment before it actually happens.

In today’s materialistic society, health becomes less and less important as compared to wealth and fame. But without health, what can one do with all the money and power in this world? Hence, I strongly advise everyone to pay more attention to their health whether or not they believe in the Science of Chinese Metaphysics. As the saying goes ‘Prevention is better than Cure.’

 Do Bazi and Zi Wei Dou Shu(ZWDS) come into play?  Well…the answer is Yes! If you have been following this website closely and visit our forum , you would have been amazed by how much information we can obtain just by reading a person’ s birthchart. There have been many forum members who have been amazed by the accuracy of our reading not just about career, wealth,relationship but health as well!

Bazi and Zi Wei Dou Shu(ZWDS) hold the key towards a comprehensive diagnosis of the health problem and medical prescription.  Like Master Ken ,we are  firm believers of the adage that “prevention is better than cure”. 

Bazi and Zi Wei Dou Shu(ZWDS) will be able to identify the inherent health deficiency and medical problem of a person even way before the symptoms or the illness sets in.  They can also help to identify the Fengshui aspects of the house or environment that the person lives in that will prevent such illnesses from setting in. 

 An understanding of Bazi and Zi Wei Dou Shu(ZWDS) also holds the key to prescription of a comprehensive cure.  This is because the patient may not articulate the medical problem clearly enough and an effective cure can only be achieved when the TCM practitioner understands how the energy flows within the organs and their yin & yang predisposition.

So in summary, how do Bazi and Zi Wei Dou Shu(ZWDS) complement Chinese Traditional Medicine?

-identify the inherent health deficiency  way before the symptoms or the illness sets in

-identify the Fengshui aspects of the house to prevent illnesses from setting in

-identify a medical condition that the person migh not even know of himself

To most people, Western Medicine is scientific, more widely accepted and belongs to the main stream tools toward health and wellness.  Hence, it is the defacto choice for them. 

 While I have utmost respect for the advancement Western Medicine have made until today, I have come across enough cases that makes me convinced that TCM is the superior choice to Western Medicine when it comes to achieving good health.  I will say TCM is more effective at keeping people in the pink of health while Western Medicine is better in treating sick people.  When people are severely ill, Western Medicine is the better choice of treatment as it works faster on the symptoms. 

What is my basis for concluding so?  Western medicine treats symptoms but do not get to the root of the problem.  For someone suffering from headache they usually prescribe pain killers but falls short of addressing the real cause of the headaches.  When a patient has high fever, sometimes they ask the patient to dip in cold water or stay in cold air-conditioned rooms to combat the rising temperature.  I will be the first to lend my experience that the type of fever I suffers always get worse if I treat myself with cold water or cold air.  Proponents of Western Medicine may challenge me to say why make a fuss when the illness is “cured”.  I will say the symptoms may be cured but the root cause of the illness is merely subdued.  The result of which is a weaker health constitution in the long term.

TCM is very different as it seeks to identify the underlying health deficiencies.  TCM acknowledge that the body consists of organs that are all interlinked and their yin & yang composition determines how the energy flows within the organs of the body. 

TCM thus goes right to the root of the health problem instead of just treating the symptoms.  Rome is not built in a day, and neither should we expect our health problems to be fully cured by a TCM practitioner within a short period of time.  For those that have developed to a critically late stage of illnesses, I still advocate they rely on Western Medicine but use TCM as the longer term fallback solution.
