According to Flying Star feng shui, Period 9 runs from 2024 to 2043, and the digits 9, 1 and 8 are considered the lucky stars of this period. The system therefore adds a few points when the last digit is one of these three. This is an interpretation based on the star periods, not a fixed rule, and it may change when the next period begins.
