Nothing is taken for granted more than the time we spend. Our context of time – that it flows in a linear succession format of past, present and future, may turn out to be an oversimplification of how the Universe works. Modern science has proven that time passes faster in some places (a mountain) when compared to others (below sea level). The difference is tiny, but with precise tools it can be measured.
In the study of Chinese Metaphysics, time or more specifically, The Art of Date Selection is the missing piece that connects all systems including Qi Men Dun Jia, BaZi and Feng Shui. Time is one of the 4 realms; Spirit, Universe, Earth and Man (aka time, space, matter and events) with each having the power to influence one another.
Time is always in flux, constantly interacting and changing the compositions of the other 3 realms. By understanding how these vibrational energies work, you allow the Universe to work in your favour and not against it.
