After 2002 according to Flying Star Feng Shui and the I Ching

In Flying Star Feng Shui we use the ‘3 Round 9 Fortune’ - a cycle of energy lasting 180 years - to look at how conditions will change. Each Round of 60 years contains 3 Fortunes of 20 years. Each Round and Fortune will bring different conditions. We are currently in the Lower Round, 7th fortune, which will be finished in 2003. In 2004, we will move into the 8th fortune. This means that as we move toward the end of the Lower Round in 40 years time, everything will get more and more difficult.

We can also use the I Ching ‘2 Round 8 Fortune’ to look ahead. We are currently in the I Ching Lower Round, 8th Fortune, which began in 1996 and is heading toward the 9th Fortune in 2016. Both Flying Star 3 Round 9 Fortune and I Ching 2 Round 8 Fortune total 180 years as a cycle, so in about 40 years time a new cycle will start. This period will give rise to recession, mass unemployment, violent attacks and crime, growing drug abuse, more Islamic fundamentalist attacks, environmental pollution, rising divorce rates, growing numbers of transexuals, an increase in AIDS and other illnesses, natural disasters, and after the EU, burgeoning globalisation.

There will be a polarisation of ideologies towards Islam or Christianity. With the end of the cold war, and both Russia and China not posing a threat to the West, fundamentalist Islamic countries will be the source of most tension.

These countries will fight against non-islamic countries and Islam will clash with all the other religions. Even within China the Islamic fundamentalists will still be causing a lot of problems, and so the Chinese will support the West against them. There will be a lot of political game-playing as each country tries to make the best of the situation for themselves.

From the I Ching, we can see that the current climate of global unrest is set to continue until 2005. After that time we will enter a more peaceful period lasting until 2025. The Third World War will start from 2025. The Islamic Fundamentalists will be defeated.
