1. Four Gems-2014
A season of Four Distinctive Workshops to enhance your Practice
by Sherry Merchant
23 April – 1 May 2014
If you are looking for a bouquet of courses that will help your Feng Shui career, this
is one that will infinitely increase your consulting value. Diverse and essential; each
one of them will be useful to you, either used collectively or individually.
The material included in each of the courses is comprehensive, and is condensed
into a shorter course format taking into consideration that you are all busy
practitioners and appreciate saving time (and money) and yet making your
journey worthwhile.
Sherry Merchants teaching style is direct and cuts out all the unnecessary
“window dressing”. You get to the matter directly, in a “pre digested” format
where she has taken out the hard work and done the heavy lifting for you, and
presents the matter in a concise, easy-to-understand structure.
The heaviness of these intensely serious topics are relieved by Sherry Merchant’s
humorous and realistic manner of imparting knowledge. The courses will be
peppered by constant references to actual cases, and case studies will be used
to demonstrate how to apply everything.
Don’t let the short time frame fool you, the workshops are extensive in content.
You will be given notes, tables and templates to use and apply instantly, all you
have to do is sit back and enjoy the explanations, without stressing about having
taken down your notes correctly.

2. 1. Xuan Kong Da Gua
Course Syllabus:
64 Hexagrams:
(4 days) You will be taken through a deep insightful study of the 64 Hexagrams,
the most basic element of any Metaphysical Study, which will help you break
down the 360 degrees of the Luopan into 64 meaningful sectors thereby adding a
further dimension to your knowledge.
Did you know: Each of the 24 mountains cover 2 and a half hexagrams so even if
you use Advanced 8 mansions, and pick the right sub-sector of the trigram, you
could still be using hit and miss method, as one or more of the 3 possible
hexagrams in that 24 mountains sub sector could be unusable, and even is a
usable mountain, there are usable and unusable degrees? This is what makes the
difference in your results.
Concept of Yin and Yang:
In Xuan Kong Da Gua this is different, and very critical to know.
Hexagram Groupings:
Different sets and styles of grouping of Hexagrams with specific uses and
applications.
Connecting land-formations:
From the outside to the inside, and combining with date selection and seeing its
relevance to Yi Jing, this is an important facet of the subject.
Real-Life Application Methods with Case studies:
Telling you how to actually apply Xuan Kong Da Gua using whatever little you
have, in a fail proof method, that is simple and practical. You will not go home
with an armful of “formulas” with no clue how to apply, instead you will be given
templates that you simply place over your floor plan and mark positions. Of
course you will be taught how to make those templates yourself.
Concept of “water” and “mountain”:
Understand once and for all what qualifies “water” and “mountain” and where it
can be placed and what constitutes a Xuan Kong Da Gua compliant water
/mountain feature. Learn how to place water and other “stimulation features” to
get your Xuan Kong Da Gua going.
Blind application:
Can’t get an accurate reading? Don’t have access to a Luopan? You can still do
something, you learnt it here first!
Wednesday 23 to Saturday 26 April 2014
Xuan Kong Da Gua (4 days)

3. 2. Life palace Assessment
Course Syllabus:
What’s your Gua?
A fun but accurate way to chart out a persons characteristic traits and
predictable reactions to a situation based on their Ming Gua, you will also learn
how people typically react to one another based on their individual Ming Guas.
We use this information to further see how they react to different properties based
on the property’s orientation and flying star chart.
Basic Revision of Flying Stars:
Just in case you are rusty, a reminder of how to fly and use the flying star system
which will form the basis of the Life Palace Assessment system. Sherry Merchant’s
system is a bit different, she ignores the 81 combinations (finds them too generic)
and teaches you how to derive your own accurate assessment of different star
combinations and interactions and how to accurately assess their outcome.
Annual & Monthly Flying stars:
Look at how to construct your own Annual and Monthly Flying Star charts each
year. You will be taught how to dynamically assess a flying star chart by
overlaying the Annual and Monthly charts over the Natal Chart and layering in
other factors to get a new insightful and deadly accurate reading.
Judging the house:
Use the flying Stars of the house to see how each person based on their Ming Gua
will relate to the house chart. This is a great way to select a house just in case you
are not able to view it yourself.
Prediction:
Use the flying star chart to predict accurately the potential and events likely to
take place in the house.
This is an exciting system and you can use it exclusively to predict anything at all,
and answer any question using several methods and approaches including
“shifting palace”.
Monday 28 To Tuesday 29 April 2014
Life Palace Assessment (2 days)

4. 3. 60 Jia Tzi in depth
Course Syllabus:
This one day workshop is aimed at familiarizing you with the 60 Jia Tzi as individual
entities.
You will learn to discriminate between good and bad pillars (yes all are not
created equally )
You will learn that each pillar belongs to a grouping and has a potential
relationship with each of the other pillars which is pre-destined, and you will learn
how to work this out.
Essential learning for each and every BaZi student, after this you will wonder how
you ever did without this information.

60 Jia Tzi In Depth (1 day)
4. Date Selection Express
Course Syllabus:
Date Selection is an integral part of a Feng Shui Practitioners practice. You should
not proceed without this handy little tool, as correct date selection is what makes
your Feng Shui advice work or backfire.
While a complete Date Selection module with Joey Yap (highly recommended, if
you have never taken it) takes 4 days, this express version will see you through.
It covers the most important aspects of Date Selection that you need in your day
to day practice, and tells you how to make the maximum use of all the tools
available at hand, tong shu, online tools etc.
Whether you want to apply this immediately or plan on doing the more
advanced Joey Yap version, this is a good place to begin.
