The four positive Wandering Stars are balanced by four negative Wandering Stars. Whenever possible, it is best to locate the main door, bedrooms and study rooms where the positive Wandering Stars are located in the House Gua, and to locate areas like storerooms or bathrooms where the negative Wandering Stars reside.

The four negative Wandering Stars are:

• Huo Hai, which brings mishaps. Ironically, the classical texts refer to this Star as Lu Chun< meaning "rewards". It is represented by the Earth Phase and it is associated with mishaps, loss of wealth, sudden unfortunate changes or hassles and obstacles in one's work life. Generally, these setbacks are more of a nuisance than a major threat, and we can overcome the effects of this Star through the choices we make.
• Wu Gui, the "Five Ghosts". The Classical name for this Star, oddly enough, means "Chastity". Wu Gui is associated with the Fire Phase. It brings betrayal, gossip, rumors, backstabbing, the presence of petty people, and even subterfuge or sabotage. Wu Gui can also cause disloyalty and discord among family members. Negative external forms like pylons or jagged rooftops pointing towards the sector where Wu Gui resides can further exacerbate the effects.
• Liu Sha, the "Six Killings". The classical name for this Star is Wen Qu, meaning "Literary Arts". Liu Sha is associated with the Phase of Water and with afflictions like lawsuits, bodily injury, robbery, scandal, adultery and the need for surgery. The location of Liu Sha in relation to the Luo Shu or in relation to negative external forms can help us to determine which resident is most likely to be affected.
• Jue Ming, which represents the "severed fate". The classical name for this star is Po Jun, or "Broken Soldier". Jue Ming relates to the Metal Phase, and to accidents and illnesses. In severe cases, when aggravated by negative external forms, these accidents or illnesses can be fatal!
