The main star Polaris A is a huge, bright and ancient yellow Supergiant star. Polaris A is six times the mass of the sun, and if it is placed with the sun, its brightness is 2000 times that of the sun.

In addition to the nasty Huang Wu evil, there is another evil in Feng Shui that is also taboo, and that is Erhei disease. Because the direction of the two black stars generally brings disease and pain. So don't make too much movement where the sick sign flies. Under normal circumstances, it is more appropriate to let it stay quietly. The Year of the Loong, Erhei Fuxing arrived at Kanggong, which is called due north in life.
Erhei and Wuxing are also earthly branches, so red can't be seen in the direction of the symbol of Erhei disease. So, inside, the gate faces north or due north, try to avoid seeing red. Including some objects that often make noise, will not appear in the true north direction. For example, some people say that wind chimes and alarm clocks are the most taboo signs of appearing in the direction of Huang Wu and getting sick.
