Sudoku Astrology: Creating Happiness and Succeeding in Love, Sex, and Relationships

I liked the book very much but I am a bit confused as this book and its calculations which is based on planetary energies that dominate at any point in time, placed me in the metal gua. In some of my Feng Shui books I am ruled by the earth element - gua. That is my confusion. This book is great and goes into a bit more detail than my other books but I am trying now to understand why in the chinese divination processes that I come up with two different guas. Since using chinese philosophical practices in the need to understand myself though, you come to realise that the western philosophical practices are pretty much useless. But never the one to give up, now I am on to the Chinese birthday book, maybe that can fill in the hole I find myself in. Possibly I am right in the middle of earth and metal since they do lie next to each other. In western astrology I am right on a cusp which makes it rather difficult to pinpoint anything. Onward.....
