24 Mountains Compass

二十四山 — The foundation of all compass-school feng shui.

The Luo Pan divides 360 degrees into 24 sectors of 15 degrees each. Every sector is named with a Heavenly Stem, Earthly Branch, or corner Trigram. This classification underlies Flying Stars, San He, and all compass-school analysis. Knowing your exact sector is the first step to any serious feng shui reading.
