Hi Deslee!
You are correct that any area with drains is considered to flush the energy that resides there down the drain. This will occur with the monthly, yearly and 20 year stars.
Next year is actually the transitional year between Period 8 and Period 9, which starts in 2024. I noticed Chunyi Lin kept mentioning this year as the transitional year in his presentation and discussed that with Pete. Apparently Chunyi accidently wrote down the wrong year in his presentation notes and then put it on his power point!
2023 will be the last year in Period 8 and Period 9 will commence in 2024.
All the best!
