October 2025 Qi Men Dun Jia Chart Overview Analysis
October brings an intense energy. The month stem Bing fire located in the Southwest with the Fear Door & Surging Snake, signaling stress, pressure, and a lot of people pushing to be seen. Leaders will feel the heat as promises get contradicted and decisions face opposition. What was once declared firmly might suddenly flip. This sets the tone for chaos, manipulation, and a flood of confusing narratives.
The monthly Dog branch sits in the Northwest palace this month. With the Black Tortoise in play, leadership faces rebellion from within. The top may try to enforce decisions, but those responsible for executing plans could push back with their own agenda. It is not surprising if new voices start rising or if aggressive moves appear from unexpected corners. The Surging Snake energy adds drama, fueling disputes and heated conflicts. Global leadership will likely look messy, reactive, and full of contradictions.
For ordinary people, the focus shifts to the South palace where the Green Dragon brings some hope. Despite the turbulence at the top, most people still have opportunities to recover and find support. The advice here is simple: be resourceful, save more, and avoid risky actions. Relying only on old methods or conventional solutions may not work. This is the time to explore alternatives, conserve energy, and prepare for the months ahead.
There is also a hidden warning. The South palace carries a risk of weak strategies from leadership and policies that may not last. Decisions by governments or corporations could face backlash and fail to deliver long-term stability. We may see this play out in areas tied to technology, energy, or automotive industries, where changes or disruptions are likely.
We are already seeing this pattern. For instance, at the very start of October, the news broke about the pause in the US government operations, highlighting exactly the kind of instability this month’s chart points to.
In short, October is a month of contradiction and adjustment. Leadership will stumble and play games, while regular people are advised to play safe, save, and look for smarter alternatives. The best strategy now is to stay alert, resourceful, and cautious while waiting for the storm to pass.
