So POP NEWS PHILIPPINES talked to Asia's most trusted Feng Shui Master Hanz Cua to help us determine the fate of these candidates through Chinese astrology which is the system of computing one's destiny based on birthday and birth season. For our astrology reading, we requested Cua to read the stars of five candidates of the 2018 Miss Universe 2018 pageant for the preliminaries (Dec. 13) and the finale (Dec. 17).
