According to Master Ken 2024 is a unique year as the year is characterised by all Yang energies, which are symbolic of masculine, rash, and far-reaching decisions. This is due to the Yang Wood controlling the Yang Earth, which is a conflicting pair of elements that signify control, pride, and territorial dominance.
The combining factors of the first day of the Dragon year indicate that 2024 is classified as a commander-in-chief of the system that is domineering in behaviour. The personality of the year falls under the Seven Killing profile, which suggests that it will be a year filled with competition, assertion & manipulation.
The dominating element in 2024 is Earth, which is stubborn and proud. This indicates a pattern of camaraderie among the dominating players of power and control. Fire comes next, so the resources of these power brokers are likely to continue their struggles and bring their fights to new levels in the year.
From a Feng Shui perspective, Master Ken said the conflict star also suggests potential flare-ups in the Middle East. However, things will eventually cool down, and optimism shall make its way back. The world can look forward to an upswing by the third quarter of the year.
Metal Industries
In the year of the Wood Dragon, the Wood element will be prominent and will bring prosperity to the Metal industries. The Yang Metal element will benefit the banking, engineering, mining, automotive (including electric and high-end vehicles), private jets, hardware, and military equipment sectors. The Yin Metal element will benefit beauty products and services, cosmetic treatments, jewellery, luxury brands, luxury watches, and minting.
Those who are well-informed and courageous will be favoured by fortune. The wealth potential will be revealed in July and will peak in November 2024. This year presents a great investment opportunity for those who are ready to pick up fair values. The first half of the year provides the best opportunities for those who wish to benefit from the upcoming
economic rebound, which can take up to five years to fully realise.
Earth Industries
There are two key sectors on Earth – one is related to businesses in real estate, property, estate management funds, data storage facilities and human resources, while the other deals with crop production, urban farming, plant-based food,
recycling, waste management and home-based businesses, and is known as Yin Earth. Despite rising interest rates and inflationary costs, the dominant Earth industries have shown resilience and continue to break new grounds. In 2024, with the promise of easing interest rates, inflation and good fiscal management, the support for Earth industries, especially property, will continue to rise. Looking ahead, the next twenty years will see the rise of Fire energies, providing support for Earth industries to evolve into sustainable businesses, contributing to society with the better use of technology and artificial intelligence. Physical possession will plateau in around ten years from now, transitioning into transient ownership, paving
the way for a new generation of exponential growth.
