8 Houses

8th Houses school is in accordance to Late Heaven Ba Gua giving rise to 8 different directions. Residences are divided into East/West four houses.
East Four houses are: Li, Zhen, Sun & Kan.
West Four houses are: Qian, Tui, Kun, Gen

Life Gua is also divided into East/West Four Life. Theoretically Life Gua should match House Gua for perfection:

1. Taking readings for East/West Four Houses
   Taking measurement with Lo Pan parallel to main door. Direction on towards the house is the sitting while direction outside main door facing.
   
   
2. To calculate East/West Four Life
   
   a) Male
   Use 100 to take away last 2 digits from birth year and divide by 9. The remainder gives Life Gua.
   e.g. Born in 1978, male

(100-78)/9 = Remainder is 4, East Four Life

b) Female
Use last 2 digits from birth year and minus 4 and divide by 9. The remainder give Life Gua
e.g. Born in 1978, female

(78-4)/9 = Remainder is 2, West Four Life

c) East/West Four Life Gua

Below is listed life Gua for both male/female, when remainder is 0, take Gua to be 9, if remainder is 5, West Four Life, with male classified under Kun Gua and female Ken Gua.

East Four Life	Life Gua	West Four Life	Life Gua
Zhen	4	Tui	7
Sun	3	Kun	2
Li	9	Qian	6
Kan		Gen	8
