This page explains what Fan Tai Sui means in Saam Law Tao, how it affects your Yuen Sun, the Fan Tai Sui types in 2026, and what to do about it.
Use our Fan Tai Sui DIY Calculator to check your status and type. It tells you which pillar is being hit, then guides you to the right FU setup and remedies.
Your Yuen Sun 元神 (spiritual planetary body) is located where our sun is, but in another dimension behind it. According to the year, your Yuen Sun might orbit into a bad position. When that happens, the “signal” it sends you becomes weak or distorted.
Think of it like your phone losing signal because you are in a blind spot. The problem is not your phone — it is the positioning.
The Tai Sui “Lord” (太歲) is the major luck’s Yuen Sun for that year. Imagine a clock floating vertically above your head:
If the Tai Sui lord is at 6 o’clock, and your personal Yuen Sun is at 12 o’clock, then you are Fan Tai Sui (犯太歲). The major luck blocks your signal like an eclipse.
Besides this direct opposing situation, there are other Fan Tai Sui types that also cause problems in different ways.
In Saam Law Tao, we read Fan Tai Sui by the earthling branches (animal side) in your four pillars: year, month, day, and time of birth. For 2026 (Fire Horse year), the list is:
Each pillar controls a different layer of your life. When that pillar is Fan Tai Sui, that part gets affected for the year:
If more than one pillar is affected, take it seriously and do not neglect it.
Example pillars:
Here, year + month + day are all on the Fan Tai Sui list (Rabbit, Rat, Ox). That is a big problem. For the whole year, it can feel like life pushes back constantly — plans jam, the body feels strained, and the environment keeps blocking.
When your own Yuen Sun is blocked, it is like your home not getting electricity. What do you do? You use a generator — a secondary power source.
This is why we have the Taai Sui Deity 太歲星君 in our sect. This deity is assigned from our Saam Law system to help you and become your secondary Yuen Sun for the year.
To connect to this help, you use the Fan Tai Sui FU. Even if your own Yuen Sun is blocked, you still have a strong, clean power source watching over you.
Depending on which pillar is Fan Tai Sui, you use the Fan Tai Sui FU in different ways. You can also do all of them together as a full package for stronger protection.
The year pillar controls what comes toward you. If this is hit, your general luck is more unstable.
The month pillar affects the process of things, especially work and the mental stage.
The day pillar is your body and daily life manifestations.
The time pillar affects where results lead to next and your future follow-up events.
Sometimes you should do all of the above as a full package. More is fine, less is not — that is how we treat Fan Tai Sui in our lineage.
