Business is often equated with financial freedom, which many people aspire to. Therefore, it is not surprising that many dream of becoming successful business owners. And while some work hard to gain financial freedom, some reach significant results in no time. Certainly, experience, necessary funds, determination, and commitment play a key role, yet what about luck or destiny? Do they influence our life choices?
Before referring to metaphysics, I recommend thinking over practical issues. Hence, if you want to build a business, start your journey by asking questions to those who have already established their businesses to gain perspective and identify potential next steps. You may ask whether their path to success was thorny or smooth. Does everything go the way they plan? Does the business bring a desired income?
Once you know the answers, consider whether you are willing to accept the risk of losing stable income to spend years trying to succeed as a business owner. In other words, you must be ready to embrace the risk of falling if you want to climb higher. Once you decide to embrace the unknown, consider using metaphysics to glimpse behind the curtain. The ancient metaphysical art known as Mystical Doors or Qi Men Dun Jia may help you with that.
In particular, this art serves as a means to determine whether a person has enough chances to succeed as a business owner before embarking on this entrepreneurial journey. If you have never heard about Qi Men Dun Jia before, this art allows us to read a person’s destiny using the Qi Men chart. Consequently, the first step would be to plot the Qi Men chart in the web app at the link finastro.io (free of charge).
Once you have the chart, analyze the interactions between the Palaces. For instance, in the example below, we focus on three Palaces: Destiny Palace (DP), Wealth Palace (the one that contains Life Door), and the one that contains Open Door:
If you have not seen the Qi Men chart before, the first thing you should know is that it consists of eight Palaces, each of which represents a cardinal direction and one of the trigrams. Palaces help us to understand what can be achieved easily and what cannot.
In turn, in each Palace, you can find one out of eight Qi Men Doors, which help us analyze the Qi Men chart more profoundly.
For instance, the Life Door is associated with profit and growth, while the Death Door signifies the end and the beginning. A detailed description of each Door can be found in the book “In The Access Zone: How To Turn ‘NO’ Into ‘YES’”.
Going back to our example, first, we analyze the interaction between Destiny Palace and Wealth Palace. In this case, Wealth Palace controls Destiny Palace, which is not good in terms of wealth. It means that it will not be easy to earn money. Consequently, I would not recommend starting a business unless the chart contains an intermediary element that we can use to mitigate the effect and make it possible to run a business.
Now we have to analyse other Palaces to determine an intermediary element. In this example, a Li Palace is a good option, as Xun Palace produces Li Palace, while Li Palace produces Kun Palace. A person can use this element as an intermediary to find ways to run a business, although it may require special techniques to make it work, which goes beyond the scope of this article’s topic.
Overall, it is not recommended to run a business if you have the same chart. The situation would be different if Wealth Palace contained good elements and produced Destiny Palace, or, at least, was equal to it in terms of elements. For instance, if Xun Palace and Zhen Palace were equal by the elements, or produced the Destiny Palace, a person would naturally attract money, even without having a job. Consequently, the next step would be to define the appropriate type of business.
I can roughly divide businesses into two categories. The first one relates to startups, when a person works on a unique idea and invents something new. In this case, you have an idea, a product, or a service to sell, which is new to the market. You spend many hours trying to succeed in what you do, learning through trial and error. If you are lucky enough, success might come quickly, and your startup could grow into a well-known company such as PayPal or Facebook.
Another option is when you open a business and start inventing something. You ponder over profitability, marketing, and the most effective upsell techniques. You choose an appropriate hiring system, etc. In other words, you build your own business. And I would not recommend doing it if you have the same chart, as it will not be easy to become a successful entrepreneur.
Hence, what kind of business can we recommend for someone who has this chart? We can recommend buying a franchise or exploring other people’s business models. You can learn how the entire business works, its structure, marketing, and recruitment system. Use this knowledge to create something similar. Another option, which might be even better, is to buy a ready-made business.
However, make sure the business you buy is successful, otherwise, you may lose a substantial amount of money. As practice shows, some businesses fail within the first five years, and those who survive may still go out of business within the subsequent five years. Hence, if you buy a profitable company that has survived the first five-year period, your chances of succeeding are significantly higher.
If you want to work as a freelancer or work for yourself, pay attention to the Open Door of the Qi Men chart. The same concerns those who seek employment. Analyze the interactions of the Wealth Palace and Open Door Palace with the Destiny Palace to determine the best combination. Use this as a basis for your future decision.
In the given example, the interaction between Destiny Palace and Open Door Palace is better than the other one. Open Door Palace also seems good. However, everything around the Open Door does not look that good. This means that even though the result can be easily obtained, it will not be of the highest quality.
