Understanding Kua Numbers: A Step-by-Step Guide to Calculate Your Feng Shui Destiny Number
difference in calculation for males and females. Wait, I need to recall
the exact formula. For males, add the last two digits of the birth year,
reduce to a single digit, then subtract from 10. For females, add the
last two digits, reduce, then add 5. If the result is a two-digit
number, reduce again. Also, remember that for years after 2000, the
formulas adjust. For example, males subtract from 9 and females add 6
instead.
Take
the last two digits of your year of birth and add them together. Keep
adding till you get a single number. Deduct this from 10 if you were
born before 2000, and from 9 for those born in the year 2000 or later.
This gives your Kua number.
Take
the last two digits of your year of birth and add them together. Keep
adding till you get a single number. Add 5 to this number if you were
born before 2000, add 6 for those born in the year 2000 or later. If the
result is a two-digit number, keep adding till get a single number.
This is your Kua number.
Steps to Calculate Your Kua Number:
-
Determine Your Birth Year:
Use the Gregorian calendar year of your birth (e.g., 1990, 2005). Note: Some traditions use the lunar year, so confirm if unsure. -
Add the Last Two Digits of Your Birth Year:
-
Example: For 1987, add 8 + 7 = 15.
-
-
Reduce to a Single Digit:
-
Sum the digits of the result: 1 + 5 = 6.
-
Repeat until you get a single digit (1–9).
-
-
Apply the Gender Formula:
-
For Males (Born 1900–1999): Subtract the single-digit result from 10.
-
Example: 10 – 6 = 4 (Kua 4).
-
-
For Females (Born 1900–1999): Add 5 to the single-digit result. Reduce again if needed.
-
Example: 6 + 5 = 11 → 1 + 1 = 2 (Kua 2).
-
Adjustments for Birth Years 2000 and Later:
-
Males: Subtract from 9 instead of 10.
-
Females: Add 6 instead of 5.
-
-
Special Case for Kua 5:
-
If the result is 5, use:
-
Males: Substitute with 2.
-
Females: Substitute with 8.
-
-
Example Calculation (1995 Birth):
-
Male: 9 + 5 = 14 → 1 + 4 = 5 → Substitute with 2.
-
Female: 9 + 5 = 14 → 1 + 4 = 5 → 5 + 5 = 10 → 1 + 0 = 1 (no substitution).
