Can we homo sapiens exist as a singular blob of meat? Can a single human being roam the surface of a planet and survive with its sanity intact? Say for some oddness this human miraculously survives on his own, since birth, how will he learn, from whom or what will he learn from? Perhaps innate instinct? Well even the term “homo sapiens” does not exist in a singular form. So there you go, we must coexist and exchange our energy with one another, with other species, with the environment to feed the continuous cycle of life itself. In this post I’m not advocating that we ought to be social butterflies, rather, we need people around us to form symbiotic relationships. The exchange of energy is what keeps the cogs of this universe alive and kicking! That my friends, is when we turn to the Nobleman Star. In Feng Shui, the Nobleman Star is the 1 White Star. The term “Nobleman” used here does not mean rank or title, rather, it means helpful people. So let’s put our egos (for better or worse) aside and accept that we need to help and need to receive help one way or another, at some points in our lives.

Application
It really now depends on which stage of life you are at. Say you are a working adult, receiving support from people at the workplace is crucial for you to gain your standing and be worthy of your keep. If you think you’re the smartest around and don’t need nobody, then you should really wake up as you’re being delusional and downright immature. Now say you’re an honest business owner, you’d need customers and you’d need inspiration, motivation and dexterity to continuously innovate to remain relevant in the market. Can you do all that alone?
Looking at the short term, in that particular year, we take into consideration the annual star configuration. For instance, in 2020, Metal Rat year, Star 1 visits the North East palace. Now you know where to work from. By utilizing / activating Star 1, you will soon receive support however bear in mind that the support that comes seeking for you may not be in the form that you so desire or anticipate. Say, you are about to launch a product when a supplier casually says that he doesn’t like the color. Did you already have adequate market research data to support your color choice, or did you wing it? The supplier casually giving his comment could’ve helped you from a lack luster launch!
