Hi master,
Can I ask you what is a spa with massage business element ? Is It wood?
Thanks master

Yes, in my opinion, I would also consider the industry as belonging to the wood element.
As it is very close to the word "Healing" (perhaps for some feeling better after the massage? For some.. they may be sore but relieved... after the massage?)

Dear Master,
Thank you so much so the assistance, actually I'm a negative fire person which means I need wood and fire.
I am also thinking of opening a food business starting from scratch etc, a hawker business with dishes like fish soup with fire consistently needed for the cooking.
However I will be involve mostly in the growth of my business, marketing and strategic planning on the location of the stalls to be open. Is this trade suitable? Is there any other thing I should take note of? Direction of the stall facing, or anything to increase the wood element? Thank you Steven

These are some considerations:
1. In the past, careers were straight-forward. For example, a butcher is a butcher, a merchant is a merchant etc...
2. Nowadays, with both multi-skilling and management studies like strategic planning; Professor Porter's Five Forces to evaluate an industry and core-skills; things have become complicated.
3. In addition, it is often "complicated" by education and education system.
4. For example, in Singapore; our education system in the past, in my opinion is still more of reguritation of facts or reproducing them. And not very good for innovation.
5. And the majority would rely on their education certificate: for example, an accountant would often stick to their current career even if ba zi says that their careers are not that suitable to them. Of course, there are some who change careers in a drastic measure, such as a few lawyers who could not adapt to the stress of their career. Thus, this often limits one's scope to change job.
6. In addition, in Singapore, many who switch jobs and could not find employment may end up as Taxi drivers and even open food stalls.. due to low startup costs if any.
6. Furthermore, under the Holy Trinity of Luck:-
6.1. What you mentioned belong only to the Heaven Luck category and there are lots of escape clause to it. For example, as mentioned, your education, your relationship would change it somewhat.
6.2. Earth Luck is Feng Shui.
6.3. Human or man luck is another.
7. Thus, Heaven Luck or Ba zi is only 33.3 percent of the total luck.
8. In a business, what is more important also is the "product". For example, in Singapore, there are instances of famous food stalls were relocated to odd corners of Singapore and yet, they instantly become successful no matter where they are situation. Contrary to those not so good.. run of the mill food stalls.
