Deity-sits-on-deity analysis How to use the Deity-Sit-On-Deity

Deity A sits on Deity B means A is Stem and B is HHS inside the Branch. There are schools that take the main Qi as the HHS, but there are schools that take the dominant HHS as B. Dominant HHS is often shortened to DHHS, which is the active HHS in that specific pillar. How to determine the active HHS is another long story, but this is not necessarily same as main Qi.

Let's take Jia Yin Pillar, for example. A being Jia Stem is clear. But what is B, or the HHS to take in the Yin Branch?

- If you always take the main Qi, then the HHS is simply Jia inside of Yin. - But in the other school, HHS can be either Jia, Bing or Wu, in which case you would have three different setups of Deity-Sit-On-Deity.

Why three different setups in the other school? Let's say Daymaster is Gui Water, these are the three different relations between Jia Yin Pillar and DM:

1) DHHS is Jia: the Pillar is Shang Guan sitting on Shang Guan 2) DHHS is Bing: the Pillar is Shang Guan sitting on Zheng Cai 3) DHHS is Wu: the Pillar is Shang Guan sitting on Zheng Guan

At any given time, only one relation 1, 2 or 3 is to be used for Ten Deity interpretation.

The next step for Ten Deity analysis is to look at the relative strengths between A and B: - A and B are equally strong - A is stronger than B - A is weaker than B. Strength is usually assessed using Qi phases (Twelve Life Stages). There are three different Qi phases, and you have to use the correct Qi phase for Ten Deity analysis. Understanding Qi phases is another long story. I finish my story here, and hope that I have not bored readers. Hey Art, IMHO, The Frd sitting on XX series is valid for all pillars. Since the day pillar must always be Frd sitting on XX, It is the only patter used for the Day. All other series are not valid. The other series are valid for Hour, Month and Year pillars and not the day pillar. HO sitting on HO is not a valid day pillar so the HO sitting on XX series is not used. 正官坐正官：正官为命局喜用神时，那么多呈现吉象，主其人做事认真负责，一心一意，秉公尚义，客观理性， 富有领导才能，受人爱戴，职场上易掌权力；如果正官为命局忌神，那么其人个性懦弱刻板，优柔寡断，求事多 磨，女命也主婚姻感情波折，他柱再见伤官的话，则离婚再嫁难免。 DO sits on DO = If DO is Useful god, mostly it would bring auspicious influences like person is responsible, serious in doing things, concentrating in one mind, impartial, rational, full of leadership, well-received by others, easily gain authority and rank in career.

正官坐七杀：官杀同柱，官杀为喜为忌均非吉象。如果为忌神时，则更凶，生平多劳少成，为官不长久，容易遭 人诽谤排斥，口舌是非多，精神集中力差，做事优柔寡断，犹豫不决，顛三倒四，缺乏决断力，生平求谋多费力 。女命恐有桃色之灾，再见伤官，易有不贞之嫌。 DO sits on 7K = When in the same pillar, regardless of DO and 7K are Useful god or Harmful god, it isn’t auspicious. When they are Harmful gods, it is even worse. Person’s life would be meet with many hardships and obstacles yet few/no achievements. Like doesn’t stay long on any job, easily prone to other people’s slander, gossips and discrimination, lacks concentration and indecisive in doing things, procrastinate, overall a hard and toiling life.

Regardless of gender or daymaster’s strength, it is auspicious. Person is impartial, rational, virtuous, honest, doesn’t bully the weak. As resource element is in branch, person easily gains “indirect authority” (eg; junior crew but alot of people respect and listen to him/her), alot of benefactors to help, able to achieve social status and rank and well-respected. 正官坐偏印：偏印与正官皆为异性，身弱时用偏印泄官星生身，是为吉象，其人头脑清晰，机智灵敏，聪明好学 ，善于谋略，有着优秀的理解力和创作力，以及对事 物有着敏锐的感受力，在公职或企划或学术研究方面多有 发展。如果正官为命局喜用，那么偏印泄官则以不吉论，为人多有口舌之忧，容易与人发生误会，招致他人 反 感。 DO sits on IR = As IR and DO are of different polarity (one yin, one yang), for a weak daymaster it is auspicious because IR weakens DO; person is mentally clear and alert, intelligent and quick thinking, fast-learner, able to strategize, great analytical skills, pioneering ability, great sensitivity, suitable for academic research fields. If DO is useful god, it is inauspicious for IR to weaken DO; person is prone to gossips and slander, easily misunderstood and incur other people’s resentment. 正官坐正财：正财正官相生，财官双美，为命局喜用神时是大吉之配置，主其人信用良好，受人尊敬，物质丰裕 。如果身弱时，那么财官必为忌神，吉性不但减小，同时由于身弱不胜财官而致主钱财破耗，官为事业也为压力 ，一生之中易有财务方面的波折，男命感情不顺。 DO sits on DW = As DW supports DO, person gains both wealth and authority. Even better if they are Useful gods, person is trustworthy, well-respected and has no lack of material wealth. If daymaster is weak, both DW and DO would be Harmful gods and their positive influences will greatly diminish; weak daymaster person will have wealth losses, pressure from career and whole life subjected to financial instability. For male person, romance/marriage won’t be smoothsailing. 正官坐偏财：偏财正官相生，同样为财官双美，为命局喜用神时是大吉的配置，主其人有卓著的信用，圆滑而有 原则，善于交际，人缘极佳，富有领导魅力。女命夫 缘不错，但夫星坐偏财，宜注意丈夫的健康，同时也主感 情不安。如果正官偏财为命局之忌神，那么吉性减小，行运不济也会因财或女色而招是非。 DO sits on IW = As IW supports DO, person gains both wealth and authority. Even better if they are Useful gods, person is trustworthy, sleek but principled, good at socialising, good human relations and has charismatic leadership. For female person, romance/marriage luck is not bad but as spouse star sits on IW, need to watch out for spouse’s health and emotional unstability. If

DO and IW are Harmful gods, their positive influences will greatly diminish; person will have poor luck in terms of wealth and career, and prone to troubles related to romance. 正官坐伤官：伤官见官，不论身强身弱，皆为凶象，特别是伤官在他柱天干透出或以官星为用神时更是严重，主 其人生涯求事挫折，小人陷害，多有口舌是非，一生之中恐有官灾或名誉受损之事。男女皆不利配偶，特别是女 命，主夫妻感情不和，配偶健康不佳，中年有离婚或死别之忧。 DO sits on HO = When HO meet DO, regardless of daymaster’s strength, it is inauspicious especially if HO also resides in other pillars’ stem or DO is Useful god. In person’s life, there will be numerous setbacks and obstacles, prone to being setup by petty people, prone to gossips/slander and have lawsuits or loss of reputation. Regardless of gender, romance/marriage luck will be bad, incompatibility between spouse, spouse’s poor health and spouse’s death/separation during middle age. 正官坐食神：日主身强，命局中正官食神一抑一泄是为吉象，一般来说阴日干之人较吉利，必有功名；阳日干之 人命局中有财星透出转化时，也为吉论，主其人平易 近人，温和乐观，有着良好的人际关际，职场上，左右团 结，同心协力。女命夫缘不错，阳日干之人宜注意丈夫之健康以及感情的问题。如果日主根气弱，那么官星 食 神皆为忌神，克泄交加，反而不吉。 DO sits on EG = If daymaster is weak, DO’s and EG’s suppression & weakening of each other is auspicious. Generally speaking, it is more auspicious for yin polarity daymaster as person would have achievements and fame in life. For yang polarity daymaster, if there is presence of wealth element (stem or branch, it didn’t specify), it changes the situation to favourable; person is gentle, optimistic, good human relations and able to gain cooperation from colleagues in career. For female person, her romance/marriage luck is not bad; if daymaster is of yang polarity, she needs to take note of her spouse’s health and emotional issues. If daymaster has weak rooting, then DO and EG would be considered as Harmful gods, their suppression & weakening of each other is inauspicious instead. 正官坐劫财：身强时，命局中再有比肩劫财透出，通常不做吉论，主兄弟姐妹之间不易和睦相处，在外也易受朋 友拖累，职场上竞争大，一生之中宜防色情之灾；身 强时没有比肩劫财透出，多主权柄，但易遭小人陷害。如 果日主根气弱时，劫财助身为用，但正官盖干压制，纵然想帮助也难以尽其力，正官再通根得生的话，则兄 弟 姐妹之中，易有刑克。 DO sits on RW = If daymaster is strong, presence of RW or Frd is generally inauspicious. Person doesn’t get along well with siblings, when outside he/she is also prone to be dragged into trouble by friends, at work there is intense competition with colleagues and overall prone to problems related to romance. If daymaster is strong, absence of RW or Frd means person is able to gain rank/authority but prone to being setup by petty people. If daymaster’s rooting is weak, RW will be useful to help but due to DO’s suppression, the help is minimum. If DO has strong rooting, among person’s siblings will have legal entanglements. 正官坐比肩：正官约身，比肩助身，正官比肩又同为异性，一般情况下为吉论，主其人性情光明，正直诚恳，严 于律己，细心谨慎，有自知之明，且具有领导和管理 的才能。女命日主中和或稍弱也吉利，淑和温柔，配得良 偶，相夫教子；但命局身强而比肩透出时，则个性倔强好争，缺乏人和，多有抗夫之嫌。 DO sits on Frd = As DO suppress while Frd supports daymaster and they are of opposite polarity, generally speaking it is considered auspicious. Person is honest and sincere, righteous, disciplined, merticulous and careful, awareness of self’s limits and has leadership capabilities. For female person’s day pillar to weaken is considered as auspicious too, person is easy-going and gentle, has affinity with good spouse, supports her family. But if daymaster is strong, presence

of Frd means female person is stubborn and competitive, lack of benefactors and likely to jinx husband. --------------------------------------------------------------------------七杀坐七杀：不论身强或身弱，都不是很吉的配置，最忌身弱，旺杀攻身，不利身心健康，容易使人心性变得阴 沉冷漠，偏激极端，求事多磨，进退失据，压力大而 多烦恼，他柱如果有财星透出，男命易因钱财或女人而招 灾；如果七杀居于时柱，则易为子女的事情而烦心。女命身旺尚可，但不免感情波动，纷争冷战；身弱则易 因 为男人而生灾，不得男人之爱，易误交男人。 7K sits on 7K = Regardless of daymaster’s strength, this is inauspicious; especially worse if daymaster is weak. For strong daymaster, 7K attacks daymaster and it is bad for health, person easily changes mood to become depressed, extremist, lots of hardships and obstacles in life, often in dilemma, pressurized and lots of mental troubles. If other pillars have wealth element, male person easily have financial issues or romance-related problems. If 7K resides in Hour Pillar, person is prone to be worrisome about his/her children’s matters. For female person, this is not so bad but still not spared from problems and cold wars involving romance. 七杀坐食神：七杀有制化为权，只是较适合于身旺者而言，如果身弱，则不免克泄交加，益性大为减少，以平常 论之。另外，命局中如果身旺杀弱，而他柱再有食神 透出时，则七杀受制太过，其优点则会大打折扣，为人变 得外刚内却，优柔寡断，喜欢幻想，人生之中多成多败。如果是女命，则夫缘薄弱，婚姻感情发展难以顺心 称 意，必有风波挫折。 7K sits on EG = Seven Killing is liken to authority but is suitable and favourable for strong daymaster. For weak daymaster, it is subjected to its negative suppressing effects and its positive influences will be minimum. If daymaster is strong but 7K is weak and other pillars have EG, 7K will be overly suppressed and controlled; thus diminishing its positive influences, person will be having a strong confident exterior but weak character, indecisive, prone to day-dreaming and lots of failures/setbacks in life. For female person, weak affinity with spouse, romance is hard to blossom to marriage, a turbulent rocky romance path. 七杀坐偏印：杀枭相生的组合，多成多败，其人个性虽有魄力，但行为内向古怪，工于心计，独来独往，喜欢远 行，有背井离乡的现象，格局组合佳者，多能发富于他乡。女命身旺身弱者都以平常论之，唯不喜他柱再有伤官 透出。 7K sits on IR = As 7K and IR supports each other, person’s life will have lots of ups and downs, charismatic but elusive and odd character, calculative, solitary, enjoys travelling and venturing overseas. If other configurations of the birth chart is favourable, person is likely to gain prosperity overseas. For female person, regardless of daymaster’s strength, to be interpreted as per, though it is unfavourable to have HO in other pillars. 七杀坐正财：身强杀弱，喜财滋弱杀最为美妙，或以七杀为喜用也佳，正财七杀为异性关系，是很吉的配置，主 固守信用，讲究原则，多受他人提拔，经营工商或从 事文职行政多有成就，易掌权柄。男命可得到配偶相助， 女命可配良夫，丈夫资性聪明，能在社会中出类拔萃，博得名声。但是如果身弱，七杀坐财则不以吉性论 之， 杀泄财攻身，身心与钱财皆有不良影响，信用不佳，投资不顺，为财烦恼。 7K sits on DW = If daymaster is strong while 7K is weak, it is auspicious to have wealth elements around as they support 7K or when 7K is actually Useful god. As DW and 7K are of opposite polarity, it is an auspicious combination. Person is trustworthy, principled, receives grooming from people, would have achievements in business/commerce jobs and easily gain authority/rank/promotion. For male person, he receives support from spouse. For female person,

she has affinity with good spouse who is intelligent and has exceptional achievements and gain fame. But if daymaster is weak, it is inauspicious for 7K to sit on DW as 7K drains DW and attacks daymaster, resulting in unfavourable influences to person’s well-being and financial aspects, he/she is also not trustworthy, poor in investing and often have monetary problems. 七杀坐劫财：身强者稍吉，特别是阳干之人，劫财为羊刃，七杀制之，可得权柄，但依然对兄弟手足有刑克，七 杀居于年月两柱更明显。身弱用劫财者，最不喜七杀 制劫财，自己求谋多磨，不易成功，也不利兄弟手足健康 ，月令再现七杀者，恐兄弟之中有损丧者。女命身旺者，夫缘不佳，有受夫拖累之象。 7K sits on RW = It is auspicious for strong daymaster, especially when daymaster is of yang polarity, RW is Ram Knife star and 7K suppresses it; person would gain authority/promotion but would bring legal troubles to siblings; especially worse if 7K resides in Year or Month pillar. For weak daymaster, it is inauspicious for 7K to suppress RW as it means lots of hardships and struggles in life, and doesn’t benefit siblings’s health. If there is another 7K in month branch (“月 令” is month branch), it is likely to have a death among person’s siblings. For female person and strong daymaster, her romance luck is bad and prone to be dragged into misfortunes by her spouse. 七杀坐比肩：身强者稍吉，可得权柄，但对兄弟手足恐有刑克或因兄弟朋友而分心分力，事业合作方面容易受到 损失，特别是七杀居年月柱者更明显。身弱者用比肩 者，七杀盖上压制比肩则不吉，为人处事心有力而不足， 同时也暗示兄弟朋友相助无力或有损丧，月令再见官杀则更验。女命身旺者，夫缘不佳，夫多劳累。 7K sits on Frd = It is auspicious for strong daymaster, person would gain authority/promotion but would bring legal troubles to his/her siblings or loses concentration due to his/her siblings’ matters, losses in business ventures/partnerships, especially if 7K resides in month pillar. For weak daymaster, Frd would be beneficial but is suppressed by 7K, thus it is inauspicious; person lacks capability/ability in endeavours, at the same time siblings/friends would be of no help or loss due to death, especially worse if there is another 7K in month branch. For female person and strong daymaster, her romance luck is bad and she would sacrifice/toil much for spouse. 七杀坐正印：不论身强身弱都是很吉的配置，杀为武艺，印为文彩，杀印相生，能文能武，其人有强烈的责任感 ，不屈不挠，决断力强，勇于突破困境，开创新局 面，同时内心中也是多愁善感的一面（印星的影响）。不论 男女，聪明智慧，在文职或工商性质行业之中都能博得地位，获得成就。同时，女命除自己豪迈过人之 外，也 主配得良偶，夫有作为。 7K sits on DR = Regardless of daymaster’s strength, it is an auspicious combination. 7K represents military/martial arts, DR represents intelligence, hence person would be proficient in both martial arts/sports/military fields and literary subjects with a strong sense of responsibility, perseverance, strongly decisive, courageous to overcome difficulties, pioneering spirit, at the same time having an emotional/sentimental side of him/her (due to DR’s influence). Regardless of gender, person is intelligent and knowledgeable, able to gain status/rank and achievements in career. For female person, she has an exceptional ability and has affinity with good spouse who has achievements of his own. 七杀坐偏财：身强杀弱者最为吉象，能得异性之助，也晓得运用钱财为自己谋事，在外多逢异性贵人相助或提拔 。如果身弱，则财生杀旺为忌最为可怕，在年月主父 缘薄弱，也主钱财破耗，身心多疾病，谋事三心两意，不 易成功，会因为金钱或女人而影响事业，特别是影响信用。女命多会受丈夫或父母受拖累（在年月者比较明 显 ）而压力重重。 7K sits on IW = It is auspicious for strong daymaster with weak 7K, person receives support from opposite sex and able to make use of wealth to work for himself/herself. When oustide,

person has many benefactors to help and receives grooming from them. If daymaster is weak, 七杀坐正官：与正官坐七杀同个道理，官杀不纯，不论身强或身弱，都不是很吉的配置，尤以身弱最忌，七杀坐 官星，祸端最大。同时，官杀重逢，一正一偏，一柔 一刚，会使其人的内心世界经常出现矛盾，优柔寡断，精 神不易集中，做事魄力与决断力不足，即使外表坚定，内心也是空虚。对女命来说，七杀坐正官更不合适， 感 情难以专一，纠结困扰，有再婚或外遇的可能。 7K sits on DO = Due to DO and 7K are of the same type, this combination is impure. Regardless of strength of daymaster, it is not very auspicious, especially worse if daymaster is weak. At the same time, the union of DO and 7K is of different polarity, thus it brings emotional conflicts and dilemmas to the person, resulting in indecisiveness, lack of concentration and determination in endeavours. Even if person is confident in appearance, emotionally he/she has confusions and instability. For female person, this is also unfavourable, she is prone to be two-timer in relationships, romantic entanglements, re-marriage and commit infidelity. 七杀坐伤官：不论身强身弱都非吉利，身强者尚可，七杀可制身，伤官可泄秀，名利自成，再有羊刃或正印出现 ，多为非常之命。然而身弱者却不相同，七杀攻身， 伤官盗气，克泄交加，最为麻烦，恐有官灾是非之忧，容 易受他人欺骗而蒙受损失。女命不论身强身弱皆不利婚姻，他柱再有伤官或正官透出，恐有感情风波。 7K sits on HO = Regardless of daymaster’s strength, it is inauspicious, though not so bad for strong daymaster. As 7K suppress while HO exhausts self element (to release the strong energy), person achieves fame and wealth by own efforts, plus with presence of Ram Knife star or DR, it is an exceptional destiny. However for weak daymaster, it is the reverse fortune; 7K attacks while HO exhausts the already weak self element, it is double whammy! Person is likely to have legal troubles and easily conned to lose wealth. For female person, regardless of daymaster’s strength, it is unfavourable for marriage, especially worse if other pillars have another HO or DO, it would bring unstable romance path.

七杀坐偏财：身强杀弱者最为吉象，能得异性之助，也晓得运用钱财为自己谋事，在外多 逢异性贵人相助或提拔。如果身弱，则财生杀旺为忌最为可怕，在年月主父 缘薄弱，也 主钱财破耗，身心多疾病，谋事三心两意，不易成功，会因为金钱或女人而影响事业，特 别是影响信用。女命多会受丈夫或父母受拖累（在年月者比较明 显）而压力重重。 7K sits on IW = It is auspicious for strong daymaster with weak 7K, person receives support from opposite sex and able to make use of wealth to work for himself/herself. When oustide, person has many benefactors to help and receives grooming from them. If daymaster is weak, IW supports 7K is a frightening sign. If this is at Year/Month pillar, person’s relationship with father is weak, has wealth losses, poor health, fickle-minded, hard to gain successes, will affect career and trustworthiness due to romance/money issues. For female person, she is prone to be dragged into troubles because of spouse/father (if at Year/Month pillar, this would be more severe) and subject to pressurizing situations.

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

劫財坐正官：吉凶參半，女命則以凶論，身強者具有口才與社交能力，能夠發達。身弱者 ，若取劫財為用，則被官破矣，所謂「有子不能跨灶」子女不肖，求謀不順，與部屬不和 ，有破財，病災或被免職之災害，女命則不助夫，且有遭丈夫背棄或凌虐之苦。 RW sits on DO = A mix of good and bad fortunes but for female person, it is inauspicious. For strong daymaster, person has verbal talent and socialising skills and able to gain prosperity. For weak daymaster who use RW as favourable element, RW would be “broken” by DO, hence person’s offspring will be unfilial and unable to help much. Person will not get along well with subordinates, there will be wealth loss, serious illness or retrenchment/loss of job. For female person, she will be abandoned or abused by spouse.

劫財坐七殺：現於年月兩柱者，兄弟手足中易有夭折，病弱或傷殘者，劫財為喜用者更驗 。生平運勢，起伏不定，縱使才高志大，也因不得賞識，以致懷才不遇，憂悶終生。 RW sits on 7K = Only applicable to Year and Month pillars. Among person’s siblings, there are few with premature death, serious illness or handicapped, especially worse if RW is a favourable element. Person’s life will be subjected to alot of ups and downs, even if he/she is ambitious or capable, it is hard to gain recognition and would be underappreciated and leading a miserable life.

劫財坐正印：身弱者為福，身強者忌。身弱時較喜現於時柱，若身強者，則外華內虛，有 因他人之事而蒙受損失或受到冷落排擠者。身弱現於時柱的話，則可得子與部屬之力，在 經歷不番艱苦努力之後，獲得遲來的幸福。 RW sits on DR = For weak daymaster, it is auspicious and more favourable for this to appear in Hour pillar; person is able to gain support/help from his/her offspring and subordinates, and after hard work, there will be success and fortune. For strong daymaster it is inauspicious; person has an elegant disposition but not materially rich and prone to be dragged into trouble or snubbed due to other people’s affairs.

劫財坐偏印：身弱者較無害，身強者不吉矣！身強者個性倔強，一意孤行，盲目衝動，以 致求謀多逢挫折，生活也難安定，事業多波折，終至失敗而妻離子散。

RW sits on IR = For weak daymaster, it is not-so-harmful or almost neutral effect. For strong daymaster, it is inauspicious; person is solitary, acts on blind impulse, life’s is full of hardships/obstacles, unsettling life, unstable difficult career path and eventually end up in poverty and family separation.

劫財坐正財：不論身強身弱，均非佳配，身強者更凶，有刑妻、破財、敗業之憂，生平多 損耗，財難聚，遇詐欺損財或因他人之事而受損失。 RW sits on DW = Regardless of strength of daymaster, it is an inauspicious formation; especially worse for strong daymaster which would jinx spouse, loss of wealth, career failure, lots of ups and downs in life, hard to accumulate great wealth, prone to meet fraud or loss of wealth due to other reasons.

Person’s character would be like a strong exterior hides a gentle soul, he/she is also able to receive grooming/support from benefactors and elders, occasionally able to receive unexpected opportunity or material gift, able to enjoy an abundant material life and build a happy and blissful family. Another interpretation is that for female person, her 1st marriage will end in divorce and after re-marry, her 2nd marriage will be blissful.

劫財坐傷官：劫財與傷官同柱是不吉之配置，因劫財會生傷官，更加重傷官之特性，這種 配置者，每都目無法紀，違規越法，身敗名裂，女命有妨夫敗夫之虞，男命 現於時柱則

有傷妻損子之兆，女命會因子女之事與鄰居搞得不愉快，是眾人的「歹鄰居」，若是劫財 ，傷官再與日刃同在一柱者，其人衝動莽撞，有勇無謀，做事反 覆，言語惡毒，唯利是 圖，乃無賴宵小之輩，恐有凶殺、牢獄、短命、凶死之憂。 RW sits on HO = RW and HO is an inauspicious combination as RW will support HO, and in a way, intensify HO’s [negative] traits. Under this, generally person would be a lawless individual who will violate laws and commit crimes;- a ruined life of broken reputation. For female person, she has the likelihood of jinx husband. For male person, only apply to Hour pillar,

Person is a very ferocious violent individual, solitary, unscrupulous, jinx father/spouse, toiling life with hardships, indulges in gambling and investments. Person’s father/spouse is prone to poor health; if it is severe, jinx spouse, lots of poverty and failures in life.

正印坐劫财：命局身弱以大吉论之，劫财是表里不一之星，又代表日主隐藏的另一面，正 印生之，更加强日主外在的行为方式，表现出优异的外交和随机应变能力， 口才优秀， 富有说服力，人际关系极佳，魄力十足，业务称意，外力多助。其组合最宜在时柱透出， 主晚来荣华，诸事顺心，且子女发达。如果身强见之则大打折 扣，反主人生多破耗，易 受兄弟或朋友之拖累。 DR sits on RW = For a weak daymaster, this is very auspicious as RW is not just representive of a single aspect, it also represent another hidden side of daymaster. As DR supports RW, this reinforces daymaster’s exterior traits like strong socialising skills and adaptability, verbal talents, persuasiveness, excellent human relations, courageous, good career luck and has benefactors to help. This is most favourable to occur at Hour pillar as this means person has luxurious life from middle age onwards and his/her offsprings would be prosperous. For strong daymaster, all these good influences would reverse; person would have poor wealth luck, plagued by numerous wealth losses and easily gets into trouble due to siblings/friends.

正印坐比肩：命局身弱以大吉论之，比肩性情光明，表里如一，是日主自我意识与自尊的 体现，正印生之，更加强日主旺盛的独立自主意识的体现，为人正直刚健， 有自知之明 ，乐观进取，人际关系极佳，多他人帮助，也乐意对他人施以援助。其组合最宜在时柱透 出，不仅晚来荣昌，而且子孝贤顺。而身强者见之，也无妨，多 主因人际交往而破费钱 财。 DR sits on Frd = For a weak daymaster, this is very auspicious as Frd is bright and single-minded. Person would be independent, has self-awareness, self-esteem, righteous, knows his/her limits, optimistic, diligent, excellent human relations and loves helping others as DR supports Frd, thus reinforcing these traits. It is more favourable for this to occur at Hour pillar, as not only this means a prosperous old age but also having filial offspring. For strong daymaster, it is almost harmless, person incur wealth losses due to socialising.

正印坐偏印：身弱者多以吉论，其人有优异的领悟力和企划设计能力。身强者虽无妨，但 由于正印偏印性情之不同，以致其人精神不易集中专一，容易想东想西，偏于幻想，虎头 蛇尾，缺乏果断的决策能力，优柔寡断，有多愁善感的一面。女命身强见之，易与子女无 缘，或多生女孩；同时，印星泄官也不利丈夫的健康或事业。 DR sits on IR = For a weak daymaster, this is auspicious as it implies person has strong enlightening/analysing skills and planning skills. For strong daymaster, it is almost harmless but DR and IR are of different polarity which results in lack of concentration in person, he/she is prone to let thoughts drift out of focus and indulges in fantasy, lacks motivation to complete endeavours, indecisive and having an emotional side. For female person with strong daymaster, she has weak affinity with offspring or prone to have more daughters, at the same time, the resource elements exhausts DO which doesn’t spell good for her spouse’s health/career.

正印坐偏财：正印坐偏财虽然受克，但与正印坐正财者不同，正印与偏财互为阴阳异性， 阳干生人者上下暗合，互相牵制，不论男女，不论身强身弱都不是尽善尽 美，其人优柔 寡断，遇事多思多虑，常常顾此失彼；而阴干生人者，正印偏财相制，阴阳调剂，不论男 女，不论身强身弱多以吉论，在外颇得人缘，利于业务的拓展。 DR sits on IW = Though DR sits on IW would be a controlling relationship, due to the difference in polarity, for yang daymasters there is hidden harmony thus regardless of

gender and daymaster’s strength, person doesn’t put in 100% effort in endeavours, indecisive, hesitant and often incurring losses and defeats. Whereas for yin daymasters, regardless of gender, this is auspicious; person has good human relations and good career luck.

正印坐食神：正印与食神互为阴阳异性，阳干生人者，福寿双全之象，不论男女，不论身 强身弱多以吉论，其人生性善良，通情达理，胸怀宽广，精神和畅，才艺优 秀，大智若 愚，多受他人尊敬，在职场上也易获上司赏识而提拔。而阴干生人者，上下暗合，互相牵 制，其组合发挥出来的效力减少，美中不足。 DR sits on EG = Due to difference in polarity, regardless of gender and daymaster’s strength, this is auspicious. For yang daymasters, person has both good fortune and longevity. He/She is kind-hearted, understanding, big-hearted, good well-being, talented, intelligent, well-respected and receives grooming from superiors at work. For yin daymasters, the positive influences as mentioned are lessened and there would be imperfections.

正印坐伤官：命局伤官为忌者，正印盖上制之，多是吉象，其人言谈有力，晓明事理，令 人佩服。而命局伤官为喜用神者，不论身强身弱，多为不宜，其人精神压力 大，易有压 抑感或忧郁症，多有怀才不遇的心态，处理事务心有力而不足，多有挫折，得失明显。他 柱再透印者，多有智慧晚开的一面，领悟力较差。 DR sits on HO = If HO is Harmful god, DR can suppress HO and it is mostly auspicious; person has weight in his/her speech, understanding and gains admiration from people around. If HO is Useful god, regardless of strength of daymaster, it is mostly inauspicious; person often suffers from great mental pressure, prone to depression, often feels underappreciated, lacks capability, life is mostly fraught with difficulties, great losses and gains. If resource elements are present in other pillars, person would be a late-bloomer in terms of intelligence and comprehension skills are quite bad.

正印坐正财：命局身强印旺喜财制印反得印星的益处，但如果身弱用印者，则坐下财星为 大忌。财星破印，印星无力，是贪财破印之象，家无宁日，在年月柱出现者 多主父母不 和，易吵闹争执。也主妻子与母亲不和，自身左右为难。同时，其人一生谋事求财有心无

力，多有波折起伏，事倍功半，岁运再遇财星时，易为健康而因 忧，或因财而滋祸，贪 污落职。女命身弱用印者，见财星破印，难有贤惠内助之德。 DR sits on DW = If daymaster and DR are strong, when wealth element controls resource element, it comes off as beneficial/[auspicious]. But if daymaster is weak and DR is Useful god, DR sitting on DW is an extremely inauspicious sign; DR would be broken and weakened by DW, person would incur losses due to greed and having a chaotic domestic climate at home. If this sitting occurs at Year/Month pillar, person’s parents would be quarrelsome and disharmonious among themselves, his/her spouse and mother would have such quarrelsome too, thus leaving person in a tight spot. At the same time, person lacks capability in his/her pursue of prosperity, often would meet with obstacles and difficulties, with unsatisfactory results. If in annual/decade pillars, there is wealth element, person should be concerned with health or trouble related to wealth like corruption. For female person with weak daymaster, wealth element will damage resource element which means person would have no affinity getting a good virtuous wife.

正印坐正印：身弱见之多以吉论，其人沉默寡言，知识丰富，心地仁慈，禀性淡泊，不与 人斤斤计较，宁可人负我不可我负人。而身强见之也无妨，只不过印过旺会 侧重精神方 面的追求，其人自负清高，带有孤僻，易陶醉在不切实际的幻想之中，常因自视清高而轻 视金钱，以致常常遭遇失败，生涯多劳。女命印旺耗官以及克制 食神伤官，更宜注意丈 夫的健康与子女的养育。 DR sits on DR = It is auspicious for weak daymaster; person would be quiet with few words, knowledgeable, kind, charitable, calm disposition, generous and rather be bullied than to bully others. If daymaster is strong, it is almost harmless expect if DR is strong, person values emotional enjoyment, conceited, aloof, solitary, indulges in impractical thoughts/fantasy, doesn’t highly regard material wealth and often meet with failures and hardships. For female person, strong DR will exhaust power elements and suppress EG & HO; she needs to take note of spouse’s health and offspring’s upbringing.

-------------------------------------------------------------------------

偏印坐比肩: 八字身弱者偏印比肩皆能帮身，以吉论之，多得贵人朋友相帮，但由于偏印 比肩与日主为同性的关系，为无情之配置，主帮扶力不强，贵人朋友力不从心，或者碍于

各种因素而不得不相帮，为不情愿之帮，效果一般，总体上以吉性论之。身强遇之，则不 以吉论之，偏印比肩为忌，一生之中难得他人之力，更易与长辈或朋友发生 矛盾，甚至 出现争执，求谋劳碌，易遇挫折，难以清闲，最不利经商。女命个性倔强，独立自主，身 弱尚好，身强最为忌，外柔内刚，有欺夫之象。 IR sits on Frd = For weak daymaster, both would be favourable and thus is considered quite auspicious; person would receive help/support from friends but as IR and Frd are of same polarity with daymaster, it is considered as “emotionless pairing” this means help/support rendered would minimal or forced to help under circumstances. As it is not of their own will to help, its effects would be limited. For strong daymaster, this is inauspicious as both are unfavourable elements; person would have lack of benefactors when in need of help, there would be conflicts and fights between person and friends/elders, a toiling life fraught with hardships and difficults, and person is not suitable to be own boss. For female person, she has a stubborn personality, solitary, a gentle disposition hides a strong character and prone to abuse spouse; more favourable for weak daymaster while unfavourable for strong daymaster.

偏印坐七杀: 杀枭相生为无情之生，偏印化杀力不从心，不论八字身强或身弱，均非吉象 。为人虚浮，华而不实，不懂得理财之术，假如经商则有入不敷出而发生夸损的现象。生 平找事多成多败，易遭人利用而不知所以然。在交际方面，其人处事易遭人误解，施恩反 得不到好报，更易遇朋友反目相害。八字命局中假如有天德月德或天乙贵人 相临，则能 化解其凶性。 IR sits on 7K = The supporting relationship between both is considered “emotionless support” which lacks effectiveness. Regardless of daymaster’s strength, it isn’t auspicious at all. Person is shallow, has an elegant air but without material riches, unable to manage own finance and if set up own business will make losses than gains. Overall a life fraught with numerous losses & failures but few/no gains. Person is also easily manipulated by other people without being aware of it. In human relations, person is easily misunderstood, receives no thanks/repayment when helping others and will experience betrayal and sabotage from friends. In the chart, if there is presence of benevolent stars like Heavenly Virtue, Moon Virtue or Heavenly Nobleman, it can help to lessen the negative influences.

偏印坐正财: 正财约束偏印，偏印对命局的作用受到牵制，八字身强用财者多以吉论。偏 印有制反主得偏印的益处，其人多得长辈之人欣赏和提拔，他柱见财星透出者，主有异路 功名，在艺术或研究设计方面易有出乎意料的成就，是名利双全之象。而身弱用偏印生身 者，则不以吉论之，偏印为喜为贵人，受财星制之，有贵人被劫之象，主贵 人欲助无力 ，找事难免奔波磨折。 IR sits on DW = DW suppresses IR and IR’s influence on the chart would be hampered. For strong daymaster (wealth elements are Useful god), this is auspicious as IR is suppressed, daymaster receives the positive influences from IR instead;- person receives favour/grooming from elders/superior, and if other pillars have another wealth element, person has affinity with fame and recognitions, especially in art/research/design fields where he/she would have exceptional achievements and gains. For weak daymaster, as IR is favourable element, it is inauspicious; IR is liken to benefactors when subjected to DW’s suppression, benefactors are “suppressed” in a sense. Hence person has poor benefactors luck and living a life fraught with hardships, obstacles and difficulties.

偏印坐正官: 在八字中，偏印盜泄正官，身強用正官者不吉，身弱喜偏印相生者吉，但相 對女命來說，正官為夫星，不論八字身強或身弱，均是吉兇參半的配置。正官星被偏印盜 泄，命局中正官弱時最忌，多主不吉，主丈夫事業發展不順或健康不佳，他柱見傷官或七 殺者，主自己易做出對不起丈夫的事情而令丈夫傷心，以致被丈夫冷落。偏印本性善于掩 飾自身，加上善于盜泄代表修身榮身的 正官星，故其人外在華麗，內在空虛，虛有其表 而已。經商的人表面看起來很有錢，但實際沒什么錢，當官的人表面看起來權重位高，但 實際卻掌不到實權。 IR sits on DO = In this combination, IR weakens DO. For strong daymaster, it is inauspicious. For weak daymaster, it is auspicious. However for female person, DO represents spouse and regardless of daymaster’s strength, it is a mix of good and bad fortunes. In charts where DO is weak, it is the most inauspicious; person’s husband has poor career luck and poor health. If other pillar has another HO or DO, she will do some things that will let her husband down, thus hurting her husband in the process and ruin person’s relationship with her husband. IR originally is good at concealing itself plus weakening DO (which represent self-cultivation), hence person is an elegant disposition but lacking capability/substance or material wealth. If person engages in business/commerce, he/she would look wealthy but in actual fact is not. If person holds official position, he/she looks to have authority but lacks the capability to sustain it.

偏印坐食神: 枭神夺食，不论八字身强或身弱皆非吉论，尤其是身强以食神泄秀者，此配 置最凶，其人情绪压抑，偏激极端，一生之中遇事闷闷不乐，经常受到长辈的干涉干与阻 碍，难言自由，难以按照自己的意愿或理想去做事情，进退失据，多成多败，虎头蛇尾。 食神也为生财之工具，偏印破坏食神，不利经商，否则易遭失败倒闭。身弱用偏印生身者 ，吉处藏凶，富贵难料。女命者，有克子女之象，或有产厄之忧，日时再现偏印者更验。 IR sits on EG = As IR triumphs over EG, regardless of daymaster’s strength, it is inauspicious. For strong daymaster it is worse due to EG’s weakening; person is gloomy, depressed, extremist, suffers from depression, often hampered by parents’/superior’s interferences, always felt restricted, difficult to act according to own wishes, often in dilemmas, lots of ups and downs and seldom finishes what he/she started. As EG is also a tool to grow wealth, IR’s damage to EG will mean person is not suitable to be own boss or involved in business due to high possibility of failure and closure. For weak daymaster who uses IR as favourable element, it is inauspiciousness hidden among auspiciousness; hard to determine if person would be wealthy. For female person, she has tendency to jinx her offspring or difficulty in giving birth.

偏印坐偏财: 偏財破壞偏印，偏印在八字命局的影響力減弱，命局中以偏印克制食神傷官 或以偏印泄正官生身者，這種情況最為不吉，代表功敗垂成。然而假如偏印為忌神，則偏 印有制為吉，反主得偏印的益處，意味家庭和穆，凡事能逢兇化吉，多得長輩貴人的欣賞 和提拔，有異路功名之象。 IR sits on IW = As IW damages and weakens IR, IR’s influence would be lessened in the chart. And if IR is there to control EG & HO or weaken DO, it is mostly inauspicious as it brings failures and losses to person. But if IR is a Harmful god and its weakening brings auspiciousness like harmonious family, ability to turn adversity to favourable situations, receives favour/grooming from elders/superiors and likely to achieve fame and success.

偏印坐伤官: 不论八字身强或身弱均不以吉论之，身强者用伤官泄秀，伤官为智慧，为生 财手段，偏印压制伤官最忌，代表找事多受阻碍，多是非口舌，有判定错误或意料不到的 事情发生，以致钱财损失，甚至连生计温饱都成问题。同时家庭动荡，难以和穆相处，多 有难言之隐。此种命局不利于经商，否则多主破败。八字身弱用偏印生身者，阳干之人伤

官暗合偏印，喜神受牵制，不以吉论，阴干之人无妨。女命不论八字身强身弱，皆不喜欢 偏印伤官的组合，对丈夫子女多为不利，他柱再透出伤官或 日主坐下伤官者，一生多有 口舌之灾，口德不佳。 IR sits on HO = Regardless of strength of daymaster, it is inauspicious. For strong daymaster who need HO to release some of the strong energy and as a tool to gain wealth, IR’s damaging effect on HO is most inauspicious which brings obstacles, difficulties, gossips, slanders, misjudgments, unexpected troubles which causes wealth losses to person. At the same time, domestic life at home is turbulent and disharmonious to point of difficult to salvage. Person is also not suitable to start own business as it will incur losses and failures. For weak daymaster who need IR to support; for yang DM it is inauspicious as Useful god is being weakened, while for yin DM, it is almost harmless. For female person, regardless of daymaster’s strength, it is inauspicious as she would jinx husband and offspring; if other pillars have another HO or daymaster sits on HO, person’s life would have numerous troubles due to speech and person has lack of verbal tact.

偏印坐正印: 正偏印混雜，八字身弱者遇之為吉，其人聰明智慧，喜歡思考，有著優秀的 才華和學識，領悟能力和理解能力甚強，既有傳統的思維，又有獨特的風格，易在學術研 究、創造設計方面獲得發展。身強者遇之為忌，其人做事三心兩意，想東想西，易陷于糾 結，更是喜歡幻想而不切實際，臨事精力不集中，優柔寡斷，進退失據，更易虎頭蛇尾， 有始無終。女命者，正偏印星耗泄正官星并克制食神傷官，命局中正官或食神傷官弱者尤 忌。 IR sits on DR = For weak daymaster, it is auspicious as person is intelligent, enjoys mental activities, has exceptional talent and good academic results, strong comprehension skills, has traditional thinking and individual style and is suitable to venture into research/pioneering/design fields. For strong daymaster, it is inauspicious as person is fickle-minded, prone to random thoughts, entanglements/dilemmas, enjoys indulging in impractical fantasy/thoughts, lack concentration, indecisive and seldom complete what he/she started. For female person, as resource elements exhaust power and output elements, if there are weak power and output elements in the chart, it is very inauspicious.

偏印坐劫财: 劫财能受偏印的阴阳调和，故能尽泄偏印的元气，八字身弱用劫财者，尚可 ，主其人机智灵敏，喜欢说谎言，善于察颜观色和见风使舵，能快速迎合环境和时尚的变 化，随机反应能力极强。八字身强者遇之为凶，枭生劫旺，其人个性刚强，阴晴不定，神 气骄横，急躁冲动，好争好斗，嗜爱投契，求谋费力，多遭阻碍，尤其是不利于合伙经营 ，多主先热后冷，不欢而散。不论男女，婚姻感情易出现波折。 IR sits on RW = RW will absorb IR’s soothing (and IR weakens), for weak daymaster who use RW as Useful god, it is not so bad as person is intelligent and mentally agile, good at adapting and act according to situation, able to quickly adapt and survive. For strong daymaster, it is very inauspicious, RW would be strong which means person has strong unpredictable character, is arrogant, impulsive, highly competitive, enjoys gambling/risks, hard toiling life with many obstacles, not suitable to set up own business or venture into partnerships as it will mostly end up in neglect, unhappiness and closure. Regardless of gender, person’s marriage and romance path would be turbulent and rocky.

偏印坐偏印: 主生活不安定，辛苦奔波，易遭盗贼火灾，易患暗疾。若偏印多更不吉。偏 印过盛少男儿，岁运重遇大失利，财星压制方为吉，比劫脱泄也为宜。 IR sits on IR = Person’s life is unstable, toiling and hard, prone to meet thieves and fire calamity, prone to hidden illnesses/diseases. If IR are many in the chart, it is even worse; offspring is likely to be more females than males, if meet IR again in annual/decade pillars there will be great losses. If there is presence of wealth element to suppress the resource elements, it would lessen its negative influences. Parallel element can also help in this regard. 正财坐正官：身强者为大吉之象，身弱通根者也吉，但身太弱无根无印而不入从弱格者， 则官星克身不为福象。一般来说，正财生正官，同为正气之物，其人具有高尚的品德，温 雅的资质，能得下属的助力，能得众人的支持，更能得上司或客户的信赖、欣赏与提拔， 事业上发展顺利。身强者，行运逢正财正官的组合，必定升职或发财。对于女命而言，正 官为夫星，得正财之生，聪慧善良，必嫁贤夫，其本人也能善尽内助的功，生活和谐，圆 满幸福。 DW sits on DO = This is very auspicious for strong daymaster; also considered auspicious for weak daymaster with rooting, but for an extremely weak daymaster without rooting/resource/follow-chart it is inauspicious. Generally speaking, DW supports DO means person has good morals, righteous, refined disposition, receives support from subordinates & others, receives trust/favour/grooming from

elders/superiors/clients and overall smooth career path. For strong daymaster, when meet DW & DO combo again in annual/decade pillars, person will gain career promotion or windfall. For female person, DO represents spouse and DW supports it, she is intelligent, kind and has affinity to marry good husband, overall a fortunate and blissful life.

正财坐七杀：身弱者最为忌，杀旺攻身，一生求谋辛苦，身带暗疾。身强杀弱最为福，以 财资弱杀，其人晓得利用钱财作为交际手段为自己谋求利益，在外发展可得贵人资助，经 商易得丰厚利润，在企事业单位就职也能得到部属的敬爱，以及上司之器重与提拔。对女 命而言，七杀一位出现又得正财之生，其本人钟情于丈夫，能尽内助之功，守妇道，丈夫 事业有成，夫妻感情恩爱，但如果身弱根气不足或正官混杂时，则不以福论。 DW sits on 7K = It is inauspicious for weak daymaster as the strengthened 7K attacks daymaster, this means person will live a toiling life full of hardships and hidden illness/disease. For strong daymaster with weak 7K, this is most auspicious as DW nurtures the weak 7K; person is able to use wealth as means of manipulation to gain personal benefits, has benefactors to help/support, business ventures will be profitable, able to gain respect among colleagues/subordinates and receives favour/support from elders/superiors. For female person, presence of 7K strengthened by DW means she loves her husband very much and receives help/support from her husband, she is also faithful to him and his career would be successful. But [for female person?] if weak daymaster doesn’t have rooting or there is presence of DO (DO & 7K will be “mixed”), it is inauspicious.

正财坐正印：不论身强身弱，不论男女，均不是吉祥的配置，特别是以正印为用神者，财 星破印，主凶灾，与母缘分薄，自小家庭有破败迹象，自身感情婚姻不顺， 而且妻子与 母亲关系不佳，不能相互容忍。正印为助力为贵人，受财星破坏，生平求谋，屡遭阻碍， 以致心愿不能实现，在事业上也不能得到长辈的爱护与支持，在 生意上更常因大意而招 来祸患。 DW sits on DR = Regardless of daymaster’s strength and person’s gender, it is inauspicious especially if DR is Useful god as DW suppresses DR; person has severe calamity, has weak affinity with mother, in early years family is prone to break up, person’s own marriage is also rocky and spouse’s relations with mother is unharmonious. DR represents benefactors and when subjected to suppression by DW

person’s life would be fraught with obstacles and things not going as per wished, in career person won’t receive elders’/superiors’ favour/support and prone to series of calamities due to own mistake made in business. *Weak affinity with someone means, including but not limited to: severance of relationship, incompatibility, poor relations, physical separation due to work/travel or even death of that someone.

正财坐偏印：由于正财与偏印为异性关系，故不会发生直接冲突，相对正财坐偏印的组合 为佳，但以身强者较有福，正财约束偏印可以消除偏印孤癖孤疑的个性，发挥偏印优异的 理解力和领悟力，利于创造设计调查；而在交际方面，也能开朗地结交朋友，广结人缘。 只是偏印喜欢掩饰自己，其人不免有点古怪，表里不一，做人不诚实，而且不太有耐性， 对于需要长时间谈判交涉的工作很不适合，往往半途而废。 DW sits on IR = Due to difference in polarity, there won’t be direct clash/damage between DW and IR. On the contrary, this combo is auspicious (even more auspicious for strong daymaster). By DW’s suppression of IR, it can get rid of IR’s solitude character while enhancing IR’s comprehension and analytical skills; person would be suitable to venture in fields related to invention/pioneering/design. In terms of socialising, person is also able to make friends and has good human relations. However, IR has a hidden side; person’s character have certain oddity, doublestandards, dishonesty, impatient (not suitable for negotiation jobs and often gives up halfway).

正财坐正财：身强者为大吉的配置，其人诚信踏实，勤劳刻苦，利于经商，生意兴隆，财 源滚滚，必定发富，对男命而言，正财为妻，妻美而贤惠，婚姻幸福。再者，此组合出现 在月柱者，父母多为有福之人，在时柱者福力减小，但也主子孙发达。身弱以印星为用神 时，最忌此种组合，多不利母，特别是正财透于时柱，恐自身晚运不佳，晚节不保。女命 八字中食神弱而遇此组合，主子女缘分薄。 DW sits on DW = For strong daymaster, it is extremely auspicious; person is honest, trustworthy, practical, able to withstand hardships, suitable to be own boss as it would be prosperous and profitable. For male person, as DW represent wife, he has affinity with beautiful virtuous wife and his marriage will be happy and blissful. And if this combo occurs at Month pillar, person’s parents would have good fortune. And if this occurs at Hour pillar, its positive influences would be lesser but it means person’s offspring would have good fortune. For weak daymaster who needs resource element as favourable

element, it is most inauspicious; person would jinx mother, worse if this occurs at Hour pillar as it denotes person’s old age would be difficult and prone to do things against moral ethnics. For female daymaster who has weak EG, she has weak affinity with her offspring. *Weak affinity with someone means, including but not limited to: severance of relationship, incompatibility, poor relations, physical separation due to work/travel or even death of that someone.

正财坐偏财：身强者是吉祥的配置，事业经商方面稳重且灵活，进退自如，喜欢不断扩大 经营规模，多能获取厚利，但其人豪爽慷慨大方，态度轻佻，多因交际而耗财。再者，其 人不免多情，心思不定，喜欢在外拈花惹草，不免家庭不安。身弱者用印星者不以吉论， 暗示着有因女性而遭受损失之忧。 DW sits on IW = For strong daymaster, it is auspicious; when person is in business industry he/she would be stable yet flexible, enjoys expanding own business, often would be profitable but person is very generous, forthright, easy-going and hence prone to wealth losses due to socialising. And person is a philanderer, has changing preference for different sexual partners and hence likely to have a messy domestic climate at home. For weak daymaster who needs resource elements as favourable elements, this is inauspicious; this hints at losses due to romance and opposite sex.

正财坐食神：食神生财，专一有情，福份深厚，大吉之配置，身弱者多有一技之长，很适 合从事研究、商务会计或写作之类的工作。身强者发富之象，人际关系良 好，为人稳重 正直，温和踏实，心思细腻，求谋如意，头脑灵活，适应能力佳，一生没有多大的灾难， 适宜经营。感情顺利，也主多得妻子内助。相对女命来说，此配置也十分吉祥，夫贤子孝 。 DW sits on EG = As EG supports DW, this combo is extremely auspicious; person is faithful to spouse and has great fortune. For weak daymaster, person has a special talent/skill, attentive, agile mind, great adaptability, suitable to be own boss and overall a smooth-sailing life without serious calamities. Romance wise, person has good romance luck and good marriage luck, able to receive help/support from spouse. For female person, this combo is also very auspicious, she has affinity with good spouse and good offspring.

正财坐伤官：伤官生财，身弱者耗泄交加不吉，易因口舌之灾而招来麻烦，或者因求财而 发生是非。身强财弱者则为吉祥配置，财源称意，求财易得，多有意外之收益，借他人之 手而发自己的财，诸如从他人的失败之中获得利益。伤官为偏神带有动荡性质，也主谋略 和手段，急于求成，与正财之稳重沉着正直不符，因此其人内心常常发生矛盾，以致做事 忽冷忽热，人生也是起起伏伏，但终可获得成就。 DW sits on HO = As HO supports DW, for weak daymaster, it is inauspicious; person is plagued by troubles related to gossips and slanders. For strong daymaster with weak wealth element, it is auspicious; person has smooth easy wealth flow and luck, unexpected gains, able to gain wealth through other people’s efforts or loss. As HO is of a star of unstable nature, it brings turbulence; person uses undertable means to gain success. As DW is of stable nature, it brings dilemmas and contradictory thoughts to person, in endeavours person has changing warm and cold attitudes and his/her life will also be prone to many ups and downs but eventually will have success.

正财坐比肩：正财与比肩不会发生直接冲突，为有情之克的配置，一般来说身弱者较吉， 身强者平常。身弱财旺用比肩的人是得财之象，其人财运佳，求财易得，大运再逢生助， 事业会得到发展扩张，多能成为大富，而且异性缘极旺。身强财弱者，此配置则为平常， 暗示一生之中易因兄弟或亲友连累而蒙受损失，但由于比肩克正财为有情之克，故损失不 大，只是对男命来说，正财为妻，比肩克正财，则配偶易有早失身或婚后外遇之象，阳干 之人比肩暗合正财最为明显。 DW sits on Frd = DW and Frd won’t have direct clash/damage due to different polarities. Generally speaking for weak daymaster, it is quite auspicious; this is a sign of wealth gain, person has good wealth luck and has easy money gains, when decade pillar meet resource elements, person’s career will progress greatly, likely to become millionaire and romance luck is very strong too. For strong daymaster with weak wealth elements, it is neutral; also hints at troubles and losses related to his/her siblings/friends. However as Frd suppress DW, losses won’t be too great. For male person, as DW represents wife, it denotes spouse won’t be virgin or prone to commit infidelity. It is more prominent for yang daymaster as Frd indirectly combines with DW.

正财坐劫财：正财劫财相互冲突，为无情之克，不论身强身弱，均不是吉祥的配置，特别 是身强之人，财星受破坏，生平多逢破耗，蓄财不易，求谋多阻力，不宜从事经商。而且

劫财克正财，配偶多病灾或有不轨行为，他柱再透出劫财者，有死別之忧。此配置如果出 现在年月时，则其父事业不顺或身体欠佳，尤其是阴干生人， 重者有早別之象。 DW sits on RW = As both directly clash and damage each other, regardless of daymaster’s strength, it is inauspicious. DW receives damage which denotes person’s life would be fraught with wealth losses, difficulty to save money and not suitable to start own business. And person’s spouse would have numerous illnesses/calamities or prone to do things which are against morals [infidelity?]. If other pillar has another RW, person is prone to be separated from spouse due to spouse’s death. If this combo appears at Year/Month pillar, person’s father has poor health or poor career luck, especially for yin daymaster who is prone to be separated from father.

------------------------------------------------------------------------------

偏財坐正官：財官為吉則為喜，外出求謀，多貴人之助，謀事順遂，凡事發達，頭腦聰明 、具責任憑，且能得父力之助。若為忌則理財能力不佳，求謀多波折，易受人中傷或陷害 而招來官訟之災。 IW sits on DO = If IW and DO are favourable elements, this combination is auspicious; person has benefactors to help, smooth-sailing career, agile and intelligent mind, responsible and able to receive help from father. If IW and DO are unfavourable elements; person has poor wealth management, toiling life with numerous obstacles, prone to slander/sabotage by petty people which results in lawsuits.

偏財坐偏官：身強殺弱取財資殺時以吉論之，主具有開拓能力，懂得利用錢財驅使他人為 己辦事，營業上利潤頗豐，但為忌時則相當不吉，所謂「財來檔殺」主其人用錢大方示知珍 惜，容易破家敗業。而且易因女性而招來損失。又有認為女性會有配錯婚姻，而招致離婚 再嫁之暗示。 IW sits on 7K = For strong daymaster with weak 7K, due to IW supporting 7K, it is auspicious; person has pioneering capability, able to make use of resources to accomplish goals and his/her business ventures will be profitable. But if IW and 7K are unfavourable elements [for weak daymaster], it is inauspicious; person is a spendthrift,

prone to be prodigal and will incur losses due to opposite sex. For female person, she has a mismatch in marriage and prone to divorce and re-marriage.

偏財坐正印：不論身強身弱，均可以吉論之，主其人做事溫和理智，在外得貴人之助，在 內家庭和諧，婚姻美滿，家和萬事興。唯以身強者福較大。 IW sits on DR = Regardless of daymaster’s strength, it can be considered auspicious. Person is gentle and rational, able to receive help from benefactors, has harmonious family and blissful marriage. However for strong daymaster, the positive influences are greater than for weak daymaster.

偏財坐偏印：兩者直接剋制，命局自然不安，內心經常自我矛盾，以致頭腦亂糟糟而缺乏 決斷力與判斷力，縱得小利也頗多苦勞，常因他人之連累而受到損失，且與生父不投緣。 但命局以食神洩秀時，能見偏財制住偏印者，以吉論之，唯怕比肩來傷偏財而使命局失去 平衡。 IW sits on IR = As both IW and IR are of opposing nature, it brings unstability and negative influences to the chart (and person). Person has contradictory messy thoughts, lacks decisiveness and judgment, only has small gain after lots of hardships and toil, prone to be implicated by others and incur losses as a result and person also has weak affinity with father. But if there is presence of EG to support IW’s controlling of IR, it would then be auspicious. Only fear to have presence of Frd to damage IW as this would bring imbalance to the chart. *Weak affinity with someone means, including but not limited to: severance of relationship, incompatibility, poor relations, physical separation due to work/travel or even death of that someone.

偏財坐正財：財星為喜者吉利之配置，意味著其人財緣甚佳，具經濟眼光，生意興隆，利 達三江。富足之命，但命局若再有正財或偏財時，則外華內虛。若財星是忌神時，則多破 耗，易因女性而招來損失，生涯中感情複雜，婚姻不安定。 IW sits on DW = If wealth element is a favourable element, it is auspicious; person has excellent wealth luck, has ‘Midas Touch’ and business ventures will be extremely

prosperous. Overall, a wealthy and abundant destiny. But if other pillars have DW or IW, person would appear rich but is actually financially empty. If wealth element is an unfavourable element, person has many wealth losses, easily incur losses due to romance, complicated romance life and unstable marriage.

偏財坐偏財：日主健旺者大吉之兆。其人必富經濟頭腦，交際手腕高明，高朋滿座，且是 外鄉發跡，衣錦還鄉之人，常得意外財。若偏財是忌神，則其人花錢大方，花花公子，奸 滑狡詐，生涯多逢破耗。 IW sits on IW = For strong daymaster, person has ‘Midas Touch’, strong social and networking skills, has many distinguished friends, even if person venture overseas he would have unexpected gains/wealth. But if IW is Harmful god [for weak daymaster], person is a spendthrift, philanderer, cunny, unscrupulous and his/her life is fraught with many failures and losses.

偏財坐食神：身強者大吉之配，為人溫和，富於社交，人緣極佳，聰明機智，謀財高明， 生涯順遂，富命之徵。從政則官運亨通，經營事業則興盛繁榮。 IW sits on EG = For strong daymaster, it is extremely auspicious; person is easy-going, gentle, strong social and networking skills, excellent human relations, intelligent and quick thinking, has clever means to gain wealth, generally a smooth-sailing life and wealthy destiny. Has good career luck and suitable to be own boss as it would be profitable. (Not mentioned for weak daymaster, I guess it would be the reverse fortunes.)

偏財坐傷官：身強者大吉之配置，其人必有圓滑流利之表達能力，圓熟高明之社交手腕， 聰明發達的經濟頭腦，是謀財的最高手。常因他人之失敗，幾經曲折之後，卻給自己帶來 頗多的利益。但若是身弱，則往往將其頭腦往壞方面發揮，作奸犯科，更易為女性而損財 甚至影響家庭之安危。 IW sits on HO = For strong daymaster, it is extremely auspicious; person has good verbal and communication skills, good social skills, intelligent, has strong business acumen, has clever means to gain wealth and able to gain from other people’s

losses/failures. For weak daymaster, person has negative thoughts, prone to commit crimes and prone to have losses or family chaos due to opposite sex.

偏財坐劫財：偏財最忌比劫，逢之生平必多破耗，易損財敗業，男命因女性問題而招來家 庭的不安，陽干之肩財與劫財者，父有破財敗業之虞。女命則嫁夫不佳，丈夫不發達，婚 姻會突發發生變化，易遭盜難。 IW sits on RW = As IW is most incompatible with parallel elements (Frd & RW), person’s life is fraught with failures and losses and career path is prone to failure. For male person, he would have upheavels in his family due to romance problems, for yang daymaster, his father would have failure in career too. For female person, she has affinity with bad spouse who is not prosperous, her marriage would be prone to changes and calamities.

偏財坐比肩：不論身強身弱都不以吉論，身強財為喜者更忌，暗示著父親病弱或父運不揚 ，或與父有代溝，父親飄零，重者死於異鄉，產業之繼承多紛爭，男命有色情風波之患。 IW sits on Frd = Regardless of strength of daymaster, it is inauspicious; even worse for strong daymaster. Person’s father has poor health or poor luck, has generation gap or incompatibility with father, person’s father also prone to live a wandering aimless life or even worse, death in a foreign land and also prone to lawsuit due to legal battle over assets. For male person, also prone to have romantic upheavals. TPY is right and "sitting" must be within the same pillar.

Finally completed! This is also good revision for me as it forces me to recap and reinforce bazi concepts I learnt 12 years ago.

As 7K suffers from EG’s suppression, person has difficulty exploiting his full potential and as times goes by, it accumulates to frustrations and bad temper. Person is also a trouble-maker, his/her career path is fraught with unexpected obstacles and neverending difficulties.

Such misfortunes will be an endless cycle in person’s life that he/she eventually ends up in poverty, hardships and failures.

1st part of my english translation: Alot of introductory text but the important contents are.... Ghost Valley sect says, if House of Conception: - has salary star/wealth, person is born in a wealthy family. - has Heaven Void (kong wang), person is born in poor family. - has Nobleman star, person has inheritance from family.

-

clash with day/year pillar, person has a life of hardships. and hour pillar’s nayin are supportive, person has a long lifespan. and hour pillar clash with each other, person has a short lifespan. and year pillar’s nayin are destructive, parents of person has short lifespan.

Use of House of Conception: - As it is foundation of Four Pillars, it is not favourable for it to clash with any pillar. If it does, the kins as represented by that particular pillar will be inauspicious. - If it clash with day pillar, person has a life of hardships. - If it contains auspicious stars, like Heaven Virtue star, it is greatly auspicious. - If its elements are supportive with year and hour pillar, person has blessings from ancestors and has long lifespan. If hour pillar clash with HC, parents’ lifespan are short. - Any of four pillars’ nayin are not favourable to clash with HC’s nayin, if there are 3 or more pillars’ nayin clash, person is born in poor family, weak affinity with parents or orphan. House of Conception Aura: (HCA) - Its stem is derived by the stem that combines with day stem, while its branch is derived by the branch that combines with day branch. Eg; Bing Zi day pillar’s HCA is Xin Chou. - HC represents innate aspects, HCA represent acquired aspects. HC is primary while HCA is secondary influence. - HC and HCA should not clash as it would be inauspicious. Each of their elements should be supportive to be auspicious. - HC and HCA originates from some itinerant website’s “Direct Interpret Chapter”, belong to a fortune-telling sect’s terminology. Blindman sect places great importance on them and regards as “trade secrets”. Although they have certain level of influence in fortune-telling, in most traditional sects they regard HC more than HCA. Itinerant fortune-telling methods regards House of Life, House of Conception and House of Body (Body palace) as the 3 most important ones, but place less emphasis on HCA. English translation: - HC meet clashes = person has a difficult youth and poor health. - HC meet Heaven Void = person has poor health and spending alot of money. - HC clash year pillar = One of person's parents might have short lifespan. - HC is the same stem and branch with year pillar = person's parents are improper. - HC clash with yin branch = person's mother adopted her sibling's son - HC clash with yang branch = person's father adopted his sibling's son - HL or HB has Heaven Void = person is a low profile individual, has few successes in life and is solitary. - HL or HB has clashes = person has a toiling life, likely to have surgery or accident. - HL or HB has combinations = person receives help/grooming from benefactor. - HL, HB or HC clash with each other = person has a toiling life, tend to be travelling around often. (last 3 points I'm not sure of the terms used.)

什么叫胎元？原始的本人的状态就叫胎元。也就是说你本质上来讲你这人是好是坏，是善是恶，不看后天的教育 和接触的朋友、后天风水，以及后天接触的其他的事 都不看，就是纯粹的你就叫胎元。纯粹没有被污染的你生 的那个状态，就叫胎元。但是很多人都不是自己本人的胎元了。只要你这个人接触社会，基本上你的胎元不是你 ，你不是胎元。因为都被社会大染缸给染了。

What is House of Conception? It is the beginning, original state of the person. [Think of it as You version 1.0] That means your innate character and traits – whether you’re good or bad, kind or evil, regardless of later education/influence you received, regardless of your environment/fengshui – that is what the House of Conception pillar is all about. The pure original you, in yet unpolluted and unaffected state, that is what the House of Conception pillar represents. But alot of people now are no longer their original self, after being in contact with society. Technically speaking, House of Conception doesn’t represent the current you and the current you are no longer represented by that pillar. All due to being “polluted” by society. [No wonder most ancient masters preferred to live in the mountains, as a hermit, away from the common crowd and their “impurities”.] 那么什么叫命宫？你这个命和这个胎又有什么关系呢？是决定你一生事业大小的一个宫位。你有 没有事业，以 及你的事业能做多大，或者干不干得下去，全都看命宫。就这两个字就够了，你都不用看什么八字分析。所以其 实学到最后这八字很容易的，只不过不 点破你永远不知道。但这块我也先不点破，你们先去慢慢悟。这是命宫 ，记住它是决定事业的。 Then what is House of Life? And how is it related to House of Conception? It is to determine generally a person’s career; how great or small the career will be, the general career path, all depends on House of Life pillar. Just the 2 characters [stem & branch] of House of Life pillar would suffice, no need to see the whole chart. Hence after learning this, everything becomes clear and easy. But without knowing this, you will never know. It would be disclosed later for now, just remember House of Life is all about a person’s career. 身宫也很重要。身宫是什么？你这人一生当中财的 大小多寡全都在身宫体现。你这人趁十个亿还是没有钱都在 身宫这两个字体现出来了。就这两个字就够了，但实际上还要看他的天干地支相互的作用。那么这个身宫 决定 财，财在命学上来讲代表什么？养命之源。你没有钱是不是活不下去？你就说了你这人很清高，你再清高，没有 钱你寸步难行。你就算跑深山老林里修行，你也得会辟谷。不辟谷你也得想办法要钱去，当个拣破烂的先要两块 钱买个二手面包吃。没有钱不行。钱是养命之源，所以身宫是财源大小，命宫是事业大小。 House of Body is also important. What is House of Body pillar? It represents how much wealth a person will in life. Worked so hard still lacking money? All is seen through this pillar and just this pillar is enough. But technically, still need to look at other pillars’ interactions. House of Body pillar determines wealth of a person and what does wealth represents in metaphysics? The source of life. [Very true because without water the fish dies, without wealth human dies.] Are you unable to continue living without wealth? You can say you’re spiritual and don’t need money, even how spiritual you are, without wealth you can progress and live further. Even if you’re a hermit living in the mountains/forest, you will eventually quit it. Even if you don’t, you will find ways to get money to buy food. Can’t do without money. It is the source of life, so House of Body pillar represents the source of life, while House of Life pillar represents career. 胎元是你本质的东西，那是什么？是你的灵魂。你这人灵魂到底去向何方？就看胎元。很多人的灵魂一进入到社 会，尤其是大都市，北京、上海，深圳这样的城市，或 者去国外那样的大城市，他的灵魂都会慢慢慢慢的变化 ，没了，找不到自我了。八字是让你寻找灵魂的，寻找你内在本质的，寻找真实的自我。过去你要是这个人不懂 命，这辈子你都不知道在哪儿，你都不知道干吗。各位，你一定要知命。 House of Conception is the original you and what is that exactly? It is your soul. Where is it headed? Look at House of Conception pillar. Many people when they enter the working society, especially in big cities like Beijing, Shanghai, Shenzhen or foreign big cities, their souls slowly changes and vanishes; they eventually lost their original self. Bazi will let you find your original self, your soul and the pure you. In the past if you are unaware of Bazi, in this life you would

lose direction, hence you must know your bazi (destiny). 所以孔子说了四个字，“乐天知命”。他这个命不是讲的八字，那时候 还没有八字呢。是宋朝的李虚中才研究的 八字，最早是六字，只有年月日，后来才有了时辰，年月日时。那么孔子所说的这个命不止是说咱们个人的命， 他指的是人生的一种命运，不是指的个人。研究八字的人一定要懂得人的内在灵魂，心理学上讲叫做心灵。如果 研究人的命却不研究活生生的内在灵魂，血肉又何存？我们的中 国也有中国的灵魂，所以叫中国魂。 Which is why Confucius said, “Know your destiny and be contented.” When he spoke of destiny, he wasn’t referring to Bazi because at his time, Bazi wasn’t invented yet. It was during the Song dynasty, Li Xuzhong began researching about Bazi. Its earlier form was only “Liu Zi” (Six Characters); only of Year, Month and Day pillar. Some time later, the Hour Pillar was then added. Hence Confucius was not only referring to human’s destiny, he was referring to a kind of unseen force. Practitioner of Bazi must understand and know about the inner soul of a person, in psychology, it is called “inner spirit”. If practitioners of destiny doesn’t know about inner soul, how would flesh and blood come into place? Our country also have a soul, it is called “China soul”. [No wonder practitioners also use Bazi and ZWDS charts to plot the destiny chart of a country.] 胎元、命宫、身宫是人的真实的内在。什么意思？我再讲的细一点，你可能就明白一些了。比如说经常你看这个 人穿得 特别好，可是你一旦了解他之后你发现他没有钱，他就是一个假充大爷那种。他没有钱，拿那个包也特 好，手表也特好，可回家一看，没地儿住，这样的人还真不少呢。那么这时候你就通过胎命身直接看，管他穿得 多好，一看命宫没事业，身宫没有钱，就知道这是装的，直接就能读出来了，特别明显。还有的人他穿得可能很 一般，但是真有钱，他的身宫就在这儿摆着呢，真不一样。这就是人和人的差距。还有的人比较相配，就是表面 上和事实真是一致的，这种人现在不多了。 Houses of Life, Body and Conception are a person’s innate traits. What does that mean? We’ll come to that later and you’ll understand. For example, you’ve always noticed a certain guy who is always well-dressed but when you get to know him, you discovered he is actually in poverty and he was merely keeping up appearances. Such person are aplenty. At this point of time, you can see directly via those 3 houses despite how well-dressed he is; his House of Life denotes poor career, his House of Body denotes poverty, you’ll know it’s all obviously made up. There are also people who are dressed ordinarily, but in actual, they are wealthy, their House of Body will show the same. This is what set people apart from one another. There are also people who dressed according to their actual wealth status but such people are getting lesser.

House of Conception Aura’s generic interpretations: - Basically, its stem is derived by the stem that combines with day stem, while its branch is derived by the branch that liu he (Six Combination) combines with day branch. Eg; Bing Zi day pillar’s House of Conception Aura pillar is Xin Chou. - House of Conception represents innate aspects, House of Conception Aura represent acquired aspects. House of Conception is primary influence (main), while House of Conception Aura is secondary influence. - House of Conception and House of Conception Aura should not clash as it would be inauspicious. Each of their elements should be supportive to be auspicious. - Both originated from some itinerant website’s “Direct Interpret Chapter”, belong to a fortunetelling sect’s terminology. Blindman sect places great importance on them and regards as “trade secrets”. Although they have certain level of influence in fortune-telling, in most traditional sects they regard House of Conception more than House of Conception Aura. Itinerant fortune-telling

methods regards House of Life, House of Conception and House of Body as the 3 most important ones, but place less emphasis on House of Conception Aura.

1. 胎元的吉凶断法 House of Conception analysis laws: ①胎元是四柱根基，不宜与四柱相克，若与命局某一柱相冲相克则主某一柱的六亲不吉。 1. House of Conception is the 4 main pillars’ foundation and root. Therefore it is not favourable for them to clash with House of Conception. If any of the 4 pillars do clash with House of Conception, the respective kins as represented by the pillar is inauspicious (has negative influences). ②胎元最不宜与日柱相冲相穿，遇之则主此人一生辛苦劳碌。 2. It is most unfavourable for House of Conception to clash with Day pillar, person’s life will be toiling and full of hardships. ③胎元遇吉星大吉，如与天德月德贵人相临，必得福猄护佑。 3. It is most auspicious for House of Conception to have auspicious symbolic stars. For example, if auspicious stars like Heavenly Virtue, Moon Virtue or Nobleman resides in House of Conception pillar, person will be very protected with good fortune. ④胎元干支与年柱和时柱干支相生，得以祖上庇佑而且长寿，如与生时干支刑冲克害，主父母寿命不长。 4. When House of Conception’s stem & branch elements are of supporting and harmonious nature with Year and Hour pillars’, person will be blessed with longevity by ancestors. If clash with Hour pillar [Typo error? I think should be year pillar?], person’s parents have short lifespan.

⑤四柱纳音不宜与胎元纳音相克，如柱有三个纳音与胎元纳音相克，主此人祖上贫穷，父母早丧，本人应为孤儿 ，幼年家贫如洗。 5. The na yin elements of the 4 main pillars should be not of conflicting nature with House of Conception’s. If there are 3 pillars [or more] which do, person is born in a poor family, parents have short lifespan, person is prone to be orphan and his/her family is very poor during his/her childhood. -----------------------------------------------------------------------------看身宫； Look at House of Body: （一）以日柱定空亡，身宫落空亡，主一生钱财不聚，漂浮不定，财来财去，即使有钱也是柱中其它人创造出来 的。 1. Using Day pillar to determine Heaven Void, if House of Body has Heaven Boid, person’s life would be generally in poverty, poor wealth luck, wealth comes and goes, even if there is wealth gain, it is due to other pillars’ influence. （二）身宫地支被刑冲穿绝，主一生财运不济（空亡另论）。 2. House of Body has clash or “chuan jue”, person’s wealth luck for whole life is unfavourable. For Heaven Void, to be interpreted separately. （三）身宫干支的十二神，均为吉星，身干生比日干，财产百万；身干克泄耗日干，财过去时百万。 3. House of Body’s deities/elements are favourable and Body’s stem supports daymaster, person will be very wealthy. If Body’s stem and daymaster’s elements are of conflicting nature, person has huge wealth loss. （四）身宫干支十二均为凶星，身干比和日干，主财运不济；身干克泄耗日干，财过百万。 4. House of Body’s elements are unfavourable and Body stem supports daymaster, person’s wealth luck is unfavourable. If Body’s stem and daymaster’s elements are of conflicting nature, person has huge wealth loss. （五）身宫天干为吉神，地支为凶星，身干比和日干，财产几十万；身干克泄耗日干，平民。 5. House of Body’s stem is a favourable element while branch is unfavourable element, Body stem supports daymaster, person is wealthy. But if Body stem and daymaster are of conflicting nature, person is an average joe. （六）日干与身干相合，一生财运佳。 6. House of Body’s stem and daymaster are involved in a combination, person has good wealth luck for life. -----------------------------------------------------------------------------看命宫: Look at House of Life: 命宫是八字的主宰，是八字的灵魂。我们把一个八字比作一个人，则命宫就是八字的房子。既然八字代表了我们

自己，则命宫就全息我们的房子。所以看迁居、买卖房产，看命宫是第一要旨。 House of Life is bazi’s most influential aspect and soul of the chart. If we think of bazi as a person, House of Life is his/her house. Hence, to look at moving or sale/purchase of house, we must look at House of Life. 命宫带有华盖和空亡, 并且有孤辰寡宿, 特适合学艺之研究,成就也大. 为人雅洁高致, 财业自微, 故应主名不主利 . 此格主孤独, 虽贵少子, 六亲亦属无情, 可能将以沙门终老. If Arts star and Heaven Void reside in House of Life, together with Solitary star or Lonesome star, person is especially suitable to venture in research field and there will be great achievements. Person has an air of elegant, refined, has good wealth luck but prone to solitude, has few/no offspring, weak affinity with kins and prone to live a solitary life. 命宫带羊刃, 且命旺无依, 性情刚烈, 易于冲动, 应注意流年与命宫支相冲克, 以防意外灾祸. 如八字清纯不杂, 七 杀化印相生且驾刃,则胆略才干, 堪负方面责任, 延誉四方, 无论创办新事业, 或任重大之职, 皆能举轻若重. If Ram Knife star resides in House of Life, person has a strong, impulsive and aggressive character. Be wary if annual pillar and House of Life’s branch clashes, prone to have accidents. If the 4 main pillars are free from clashes and penalties, and 7 Killing & resource elements are present to control Ram Knife star, person is capable, responsible, well-respected, regardless of industry or job requirements, he/she will do it whole-heartedly. 命宫有驿马, 必远走他乡发展; 命支座财星, 主发财快速, 事业有成, 每可聚获横财而富. 命支座七杀, 可能成为外 交官或出外征战的将领. If Travelling Horse star resides in House of Life, person will venture overseas. If wealth element resides in House of Life’s branch, person achieves prosperity rapidly, has achievements in career and has affinity with windfalls. If 7 Killing resides in House of Life’s branch, person is like to become diplomat or government official sent for overseas assignments. 法诀是：命宫与大运流年逢值时，有迁居、换房、建屋；命宫与大运流年逢冲时，有迁居、换房、建屋；命宫与 大运流年逢合时，有迁居、换房、建屋。其中，以大运流年与命宫天同地同、天克地冲、天合地合最为灵验。 The rule is: If House of Life pillar clashes or combines with decade/annual pillar, in that 10-year or 1-year period person is prone to be moving house or building a new house. If House of Life pillar is the exact pillar as decade/annual pillar OR stem clash with stem & branch clash with branch OR stem combines with stem & branch combines with branch, the influence has higher chance of coming true. 命宫的妙用之二，就是看人的死亡时间。这有意思吧？以命宫看人的死亡时间或命悬一线之灾，看命宫最为快捷 。凡是命宫与四柱之中的任何一柱天克地冲、天同地同的，命主在此柱限之内，必有生死大灾。 House of Life’s 2nd clever use: To see when person’s death is imminent or person is on verge of death. To use House of Life for life-and-death issue is the most clear-cut way. If House of Life clashes completely with any of main 4 pillars (both stem & stem clash, branch & branch also clash) OR House of Life pillar is exact pillar as any of main 4 pillars, in that period as represented by that pillar, person will likely have a possible death year. [“天同地同” (“same heaven, same earth”) meaning the exact same pillar; same stem same branch.] [Year pillar = age 1-15, Month pillar = age 16-30, Day pillar = age 31-45, Hour pillar = age 4660. Basically each of the main pillar represents 15 years of person’s life.]

我们来看下面的例子： Let’s look at the following examples: – yr – mth – day – hr 辛丑，乙未，丙寅，辛卯 (male 男命) H8-E2, H2-E8, H3-E3, H8-E4 命宫乙未。 House of Life = H2-E8 此命命宫乙未，与月柱天同地同，且与年柱天克地冲。则在月柱柱限之内，必有生死大灾。（18岁死。大运甲 午，流年戊午） House of Life is exact pillar as Month pillar and also clashes completely with Year pillar. In years between 16-30 years of age, person will have a possible death year. He died at age of 18, decade pillar = H1-E7, annual pillar = H5-E7. ---------------------------------------------------------– yr – mth – day – hr 癸巳，乙卯，辛丑，己亥(male 男命) H10-E6, H2-E4, H8-E2, H6-E12 命宫乙卯。 House of Life = H2-E4 此命命宫乙卯，与月柱天同地同，则16－30岁，命主必有生死大灾。（此命于19岁丙辰年溺死。大运在丁丑） House of Life is exact pillar as Month pillar. In years between 16-30 years of age, person will have a possible death year. He drowned at age of 19 , decade pillar = H4-E2, annual pillar = H3E5. ---------------------------------------------------------女命： – yr – mth – day – hr 乙卯，戊寅，甲辰，庚午 (female 女命) H2-E4, H5-E3, H1-E5, H7-E7 命宫乙酉。 House of Life = H2-E10 此命仅是命宫与年柱天比地冲。不至于死。不幸的是，3岁行大运己卯，又与命宫天克地冲。所以三岁病死。 As House of Life’s stem is same with Year pillar, only branches of both pillars are clashing (E4 clash E10), she shouldn’t have any dangers in age 1-15. But unfortunately, at age 3 it is in decade H6-E4 which clashes completely with House of Life; decade stem clashes with Life stem and decade branch clashes with Life branch. Hence, she died at age 3 due to illness. ---------------------------------------------------------除命宫与四柱天同地同、天克地冲有大灾之外，大运流年与命宫天克地冲有时也有生死大灾。 Hence, as long as any pillar is: 1. exact pillar as House of Life (applicable for 4 main pillars only) 2. clashes completely with House of Life (applicable for 4 main pillars, decade pillars and annual pillars)

...person will have a possible death year. 1、流年，大运与命宫天克地冲者，生命有危险。 1. as above. 2、命宫与日支或年支如犯刑冲，贫贱、体弱、短寿。 2. House of Life’s branch clashes with day branch = poverty, poor health or short lifespan. 3、命宫与亡神或劫煞同柱者，或短命或多病。 3. Death star or Robbing star resides in House of Life = poor health or short lifespan. 4、男命，命宫是卯或酉且有凶煞者，妻缘必变。 4. For male person, if House of Life’s branch is E4 or E10 AND has bad stars residing, person has changing affinity with spouse. 5、命宫坐桃花，好色淫乱。驿马同柱者，远走他乡。 5. If House of Life has Flower of Romance star, person is a lecherous philanderer. Has Travelling Horse, person ventures overseas. 6、命宫地支为日干之财星者，主财源旺盛。 6. House of Life’s branch is wealth element, person has a strong source of wealth. [Strength of daymaster not mentioned, I guess not required.] 7、命宫地支与月支相同者，主其人果断智能。 7. House of Life’s branch is exact branch as month’s branch, person is decisive and intelligent. 8、命宫有天乙贵人而坐长生，冠带者，学问丰富。 8. House of Life has Nobleman star with Birth/Attire lifestage, person is knowledgeable.

Additional text from Master Ghost Valley: Ghost Valley sect says, if House of Conception: - has salary star/wealth, person is born in a wealthy family. - has Heaven Void (kong wang), person is born in poor family. - has Nobleman star, person has inheritance from family. - clash with day/year pillar, person has a life of hardships. - and hour pillar’s nayin are supportive, person has a long lifespan. - and hour pillar clash with each other, person has a short lifespan. - and year pillar’s nayin are destructive, parents of person has short lifespan. Use of House of Conception: - As it is foundation of Four Pillars, it is not favourable for it to clash with any pillar. If it does, the kins as represented by that particular pillar will be inauspicious. - If it clash with day pillar, person has a life of hardships. - If it contains auspicious stars, like Heaven Virtue star, it is greatly auspicious. - If its elements are supportive with year and hour pillar, person has blessings from ancestors and has long lifespan. If hour pillar clash with HC, parents’ lifespan are short. - Any of four pillars’ nayin are not favourable to clash with HC’s nayin, if there are 3 or more pillars’ nayin clash, person is born in poor family, weak affinity with parents or orphan.

- House of Conception meet clashes = person has a difficult youth and poor health. - House of Conception meet Heaven Void = person has poor health and spending alot of money. - House of Conception clash year pillar = One of person's parents might have short lifespan.

- House of Conception is the same stem and branch with year pillar = person's parents are improper. - House of Conception clash with yin branch = person's mother adopted her sibling's son - House of Conception clash with yang branch = person's father adopted his sibling's son - House of Life or House of Body has Heaven Void = person is a low profile individual, has few successes in life and is solitary. - House of Life or House of Body has clashes = person has a toiling life, likely to have surgery or accident. - House of Life or House of Body has combinations = person receives help/grooming from benefactor. - House of Life, Body and Conception clash with each other = person has a toiling life, tend to be travelling around often. (last 3 points I'm not sure of the terms used.)

Simplified "Chuan Jue" table:

什么叫胎元？原始的本人的状态就叫胎元。也就是说你本质上来讲你这人是好是坏，是善是恶，不看后天的教育 和接触的朋友、后天风水，以及后天接触的其他的事 都不看，就是纯粹的你就叫胎元。纯粹没有被污染的你生 的那个状态，就叫胎元。但是很多人都不是自己本人的胎元了。只要你这个人接触社会，基本上你的胎元不是你

，你不是胎元。因为都被社会大染缸给染了。 What is House of Conception? It is the beginning, original state of the person. [Think of it as You version 1.0] That means your innate character and traits – whether you’re good or bad, kind or evil, regardless of later education/influence you received, regardless of your environment/fengshui – that is what the House of Conception pillar is all about. The pure original you, in yet unpolluted and unaffected state, that is what the House of Conception pillar represents. But alot of people now are no longer their original self, after being in contact with society. Technically speaking, House of Conception doesn’t represent the current you and the current you are no longer represented by that pillar. All due to being “polluted” by society. [No wonder most ancient masters preferred to live in the mountains, as a hermit, away from the common crowd and their “impurities”.] 那么什么叫命宫？你这个命和这个胎又有什么关系呢？是决定你一生事业大小的一个宫位。你有 没有事业，以 及你的事业能做多大，或者干不干得下去，全都看命宫。就这两个字就够了，你都不用看什么八字分析。所以其 实学到最后这八字很容易的，只不过不 点破你永远不知道。但这块我也先不点破，你们先去慢慢悟。这是命宫 ，记住它是决定事业的。 Then what is House of Life? And how is it related to House of Conception? It is to determine generally a person’s career; how great or small the career will be, the general career path, all depends on House of Life pillar. Just the 2 characters [stem & branch] of House of Life pillar would suffice, no need to see the whole chart. Hence after learning this, everything becomes clear and easy. But without knowing this, you will never know. It would be disclosed later for now, just remember House of Life is all about a person’s career. 身宫也很重要。身宫是什么？你这人一生当中财的 大小多寡全都在身宫体现。你这人趁十个亿还是没有钱都在 身宫这两个字体现出来了。就这两个字就够了，但实际上还要看他的天干地支相互的作用。那么这个身宫 决定 财，财在命学上来讲代表什么？养命之源。你没有钱是不是活不下去？你就说了你这人很清高，你再清高，没有 钱你寸步难行。你就算跑深山老林里修行，你也得会辟谷。不辟谷你也得想办法要钱去，当个拣破烂的先要两块 钱买个二手面包吃。没有钱不行。钱是养命之源，所以身宫是财源大小，命宫是事业大小。 House of Body is also important. What is House of Body pillar? It represents how much wealth a person will in life. Worked so hard still lacking money? All is seen through this pillar and just this pillar is enough. But technically, still need to look at other pillars’ interactions. House of Body pillar determines wealth of a person and what does wealth represents in metaphysics? The source of life. [Very true because without water the fish dies, without wealth human dies.] Are you unable to continue living without wealth? You can say you’re spiritual and don’t need money, even how spiritual you are, without wealth you can progress and live further. Even if you’re a hermit living in the mountains/forest, you will eventually quit it. Even if you don’t, you will find ways to get money to buy food. Can’t do without money. It is the source of life, so House of Body pillar represents the source of life, while House of Life pillar represents career. 胎元是你本质的东西，那是什么？是你的灵魂。你这人灵魂到底去向何方？就看胎元。很多人的灵魂一进入到社 会，尤其是大都市，北京、上海，深圳这样的城市，或 者去国外那样的大城市，他的灵魂都会慢慢慢慢的变化 ，没了，找不到自我了。八字是让你寻找灵魂的，寻找你内在本质的，寻找真实的自我。过去你要是这个人不懂 命，这辈子你都不知道在哪儿，你都不知道干吗。各位，你一定要知命。 House of Conception is the original you and what is that exactly? It is your soul. Where is it headed? Look at House of Conception pillar. Many people when they enter the working society, especially in big cities like Beijing, Shanghai, Shenzhen or foreign big cities, their souls slowly

changes and vanishes; they eventually lost their original self. Bazi will let you find your original self, your soul and the pure you. In the past if you are unaware of Bazi, in this life you would lose direction, hence you must know your bazi (destiny). 所以孔子说了四个字，“乐天知命”。他这个命不是讲的八字，那时候 还没有八字呢。是宋朝的李虚中才研究的 八字，最早是六字，只有年月日，后来才有了时辰，年月日时。那么孔子所说的这个命不止是说咱们个人的命， 他指的是人生的一种命运，不是指的个人。研究八字的人一定要懂得人的内在灵魂，心理学上讲叫做心灵。如果 研究人的命却不研究活生生的内在灵魂，血肉又何存？我们的中 国也有中国的灵魂，所以叫中国魂。 Which is why Confucius said, “Know your destiny and be contented.” When he spoke of destiny, he wasn’t referring to Bazi because at his time, Bazi wasn’t invented yet. It was during the Song dynasty, Li Xuzhong began researching about Bazi. Its earlier form was only “Liu Zi” (Six Characters); only of Year, Month and Day pillar. Some time later, the Hour Pillar was then added. Hence Confucius was not only referring to human’s destiny, he was referring to a kind of unseen force. Practitioner of Bazi must understand and know about the inner soul of a person, in psychology, it is called “inner spirit”. If practitioners of destiny doesn’t know about inner soul, how would flesh and blood come into place? Our country also have a soul, it is called “China soul”. [No wonder practitioners also use Bazi and ZWDS charts to plot the destiny chart of a country.] 胎元、命宫、身宫是人的真实的内在。什么意思？我再讲的细一点，你可能就明白一些了。比如说经常你看这个 人穿得 特别好，可是你一旦了解他之后你发现他没有钱，他就是一个假充大爷那种。他没有钱，拿那个包也特 好，手表也特好，可回家一看，没地儿住，这样的人还真不少呢。那么这时候你就通过胎命身直接看，管他穿得 多好，一看命宫没事业，身宫没有钱，就知道这是装的，直接就能读出来了，特别明显。还有的人他穿得可能很 一般，但是真有钱，他的身宫就在这儿摆着呢，真不一样。这就是人和人的差距。还有的人比较相配，就是表面 上和事实真是一致的，这种人现在不多了。 Houses of Life, Body and Conception are a person’s innate traits. What does that mean? We’ll come to that later and you’ll understand. For example, you’ve always noticed a certain guy who is always well-dressed but when you get to know him, you discovered he is actually in poverty and he was merely keeping up appearances. Such person are aplenty. At this point of time, you can see directly via those 3 houses despite how well-dressed he is; his House of Life denotes poor career, his House of Body denotes poverty, you’ll know it’s all obviously made up. There are also people who are dressed ordinarily, but in actual, they are wealthy, their House of Body will show the same. This is what set people apart from one another. There are also people who dressed according to their actual wealth status but such people are getting lesser. 身胎命不仅对四柱作用应事，三者之间亦发生作用关系。 The 3 houses not only have interactions with the main 4 pillars (year, month, day, hour); they also interact between one another. 胎身命相冲一生奔波，多动之人。 The 3 houses clash with each other = person has a life of toils and hardships, often travelling/moving/changing jobs. 胎身命穿绝体弱多病。 The 3 houses “chuan jue” with each other = person has poor health and many illnesses. [*Finally found the meaning of “chuan jue”, see table at end. Had to split table as photobucket will auto-resize.]

胎身命相战体弱多疾。 The 3 houses are at odds with each other = person has poor health and many illnesses. 胎身命相合聪明贤达睿智。 The 3 houses are harmonious with each other = person is highly intelligent. – yr – mth – day – hr 壬子 癸卯 壬寅 丙午 H9-E1, H10-E4, H9-E3, H3-E7 胎元 Conception：甲午 H1-E7 命宫 Life：戊申 H5-E9 身宫 Body：庚戌 H7-E11 胎元冲年父母不全(实际：已亡)。命宫遇冲马星冲动，远离家乡．身宫遇合较得贵人相助。 House of Conception clash Year pillar = parents of person are incomplete.

It is most unfavourable for House of Conception to clash with Day pillar, person’s life will be toiling and full of hardships. ③胎元遇吉星大吉，如与天德月德贵人相临，必得福猄护佑。 3. It is most auspicious for House of Conception to have auspicious symbolic stars. For example, if auspicious stars like Heavenly Virtue, Moon Virtue or Nobleman resides in House of Conception pillar, person will be very protected with good fortune. ④胎元干支与年柱和时柱干支相生，得以祖上庇佑而且长寿，如与生时干支刑冲克害，主父母寿命不长。 4. When House of Conception’s stem & branch elements are of supporting and harmonious nature with Year and Hour pillars’, person will be blessed with longevity by ancestors. If clash with Hour pillar [Typo error? I think should be year pillar?], person’s parents have short lifespan. ⑤四柱纳音不宜与胎元纳音相克，如柱有三个纳音与胎元纳音相克，主此人祖上贫穷，父母早丧，本人应为孤儿 ，幼年家贫如洗。 5. The na yin elements of the 4 main pillars should be not of conflicting nature with House of Conception’s. If there are 3 pillars [or more] which do, person is born in a poor family, parents have short lifespan, person is prone to be orphan and his/her family is very poor during his/her childhood. -----------------------------------------------------------------------------看身宫； Look at House of Body: （一）以日柱定空亡，身宫落空亡，主一生钱财不聚，漂浮不定，财来财去，即使有钱也是柱中其它人创造出来 的。 1. Using Day pillar to determine Heaven Void, if House of Body has Heaven Boid, person’s life would be generally in poverty, poor wealth luck, wealth comes and goes, even if there is wealth gain, it is due to other pillars’ influence. （二）身宫地支被刑冲穿绝，主一生财运不济（空亡另论）。 2. House of Body has clash or “chuan jue”, person’s wealth luck for whole life is unfavourable. For Heaven Void, to be interpreted separately. （三）身宫干支的十二神，均为吉星，身干生比日干，财产百万；身干克泄耗日干，财过去时百万。

3. House of Body’s deities/elements are favourable and Body’s stem supports daymaster, person will be very wealthy. If Body’s stem and daymaster’s elements are of conflicting nature, person has huge wealth loss. （四）身宫干支十二均为凶星，身干比和日干，主财运不济；身干克泄耗日干，财过百万。 4. House of Body’s elements are unfavourable and Body stem supports daymaster, person’s wealth luck is unfavourable. If Body’s stem and daymaster’s elements are of conflicting nature, person has huge wealth loss. （五）身宫天干为吉神，地支为凶星，身干比和日干，财产几十万；身干克泄耗日干，平民。 5. House of Body’s stem is a favourable element while branch is unfavourable element, Body stem supports daymaster, person is wealthy. But if Body stem and daymaster are of conflicting nature, person is an average joe. （六）日干与身干相合，一生财运佳。 6. House of Body’s stem and daymaster are involved in a combination, person has good wealth luck for life. -----------------------------------------------------------------------------看命宫: Look at House of Life: 命宫是八字的主宰，是八字的灵魂。我们把一个八字比作一个人，则命宫就是八字的房子。既然八字代表了我们 自己，则命宫就全息我们的房子。所以看迁居、买卖房产，看命宫是第一要旨。 House of Life is bazi’s most influential aspect and soul of the chart. If we think of bazi as a person, House of Life is his/her house. Hence, to look at moving or sale/purchase of house, we must look at House of Life. 命宫带有华盖和空亡, 并且有孤辰寡宿, 特适合学艺之研究,成就也大. 为人雅洁高致, 财业自微, 故应主名不主利 . 此格主孤独, 虽贵少子, 六亲亦属无情, 可能将以沙门终老. If Arts star and Heaven Void reside in House of Life, together with Solitary star or Lonesome star, person is especially suitable to venture in research field and there will be great achievements. Person has an air of elegant, refined, has good wealth luck but prone to solitude, has few/no offspring, weak affinity with kins and prone to live a solitary life. 命宫带羊刃, 且命旺无依, 性情刚烈, 易于冲动, 应注意流年与命宫支相冲克, 以防意外灾祸. 如八字清纯不杂, 七 杀化印相生且驾刃,则胆略才干, 堪负方面责任, 延誉四方, 无论创办新事业, 或任重大之职, 皆能举轻若重. If Ram Knife star resides in House of Life, person has a strong, impulsive and aggressive character. Be wary if annual pillar and House of Life’s branch clashes, prone to have accidents. If the 4 main pillars are free from clashes and penalties, and 7 Killing & resource elements are present to control Ram Knife star, person is capable, responsible, well-respected, regardless of industry or job requirements, he/she will do it whole-heartedly. 命宫有驿马, 必远走他乡发展; 命支座财星, 主发财快速, 事业有成, 每可聚获横财而富. 命支座七杀, 可能成为外 交官或出外征战的将领. If Travelling Horse star resides in House of Life, person will venture overseas. If wealth element resides in House of Life’s branch, person achieves prosperity rapidly, has achievements in career and has affinity with windfalls. If 7 Killing resides in House of Life’s branch, person is like to become diplomat or government official sent for overseas assignments. 法诀是：命宫与大运流年逢值时，有迁居、换房、建屋；命宫与大运流年逢冲时，有迁居、换房、建屋；命宫与 大运流年逢合时，有迁居、换房、建屋。其中，以大运流年与命宫天同地同、天克地冲、天合地合最为灵验。 The rule is: If House of Life pillar clashes or combines with decade/annual pillar, in that 10-year or 1-year period person is prone to be moving house or building a new house. If House of Life

pillar is the exact pillar as decade/annual pillar OR stem clash with stem & branch clash with branch OR stem combines with stem & branch combines with branch, the influence has higher chance of coming true. 命宫的妙用之二，就是看人的死亡时间。这有意思吧？以命宫看人的死亡时间或命悬一线之灾，看命宫最为快捷 。凡是命宫与四柱之中的任何一柱天克地冲、天同地同的，命主在此柱限之内，必有生死大灾。 House of Life’s 2nd clever use: To see when person’s death is imminent or person is on verge of death. To use House of Life for life-and-death issue is the most clear-cut way. If House of Life clashes completely with any of main 4 pillars (both stem & stem clash, branch & branch also clash) OR House of Life pillar is exact pillar as any of main 4 pillars, in that period as represented by that pillar, person will likely have a possible death year. [“天同地同” (“same heaven, same earth”) meaning the exact same pillar; same stem same branch.] [Year pillar = age 1-15, Month pillar = age 16-30, Day pillar = age 31-45, Hour pillar = age 4660. Basically each of the main pillar represents 15 years of person’s life.] 我们来看下面的例子： Let’s look at the following examples: – yr – mth – day – hr 辛丑，乙未，丙寅，辛卯 (male 男命) H8-E2, H2-E8, H3-E3, H8-E4 命宫乙未。 House of Life = H2-E8 此命命宫乙未，与月柱天同地同，且与年柱天克地冲。则在月柱柱限之内，必有生死大灾。（18岁死。大运甲 午，流年戊午） House of Life is exact pillar as Month pillar and also clashes completely with Year pillar. In years between 16-30 years of age, person will have a possible death year. He died at age of 18, decade pillar = H1-E7, annual pillar = H5-E7. ---------------------------------------------------------– yr – mth – day – hr 癸巳，乙卯，辛丑，己亥(male 男命) H10-E6, H2-E4, H8-E2, H6-E12 命宫乙卯。 House of Life = H2-E4 此命命宫乙卯，与月柱天同地同，则16－30岁，命主必有生死大灾。（此命于19岁丙辰年溺死。大运在丁丑） House of Life is exact pillar as Month pillar. In years between 16-30 years of age, person will have a possible death year. He drowned at age of 19 , decade pillar = H4-E2, annual pillar = H3E5. ---------------------------------------------------------女命： – yr – mth – day – hr 乙卯，戊寅，甲辰，庚午 (female 女命)

H2-E4, H5-E3, H1-E5, H7-E7 命宫乙酉。 House of Life = H2-E10 此命仅是命宫与年柱天比地冲。不至于死。不幸的是，3岁行大运己卯，又与命宫天克地冲。所以三岁病死。 As House of Life’s stem is same with Year pillar, only branches of both pillars are clashing (E4 clash E10), she shouldn’t have any dangers in age 1-15. But unfortunately, at age 3 it is in decade H6-E4 which clashes completely with House of Life; decade stem clashes with Life stem and decade branch clashes with Life branch. Hence, she died at age 3 due to illness. ---------------------------------------------------------除命宫与四柱天同地同、天克地冲有大灾之外，大运流年与命宫天克地冲有时也有生死大灾。 Hence, as long as any pillar is: 1. exact pillar as House of Life (applicable for 4 main pillars only) 2. clashes completely with House of Life (applicable for 4 main pillars, decade pillars and annual pillars) ...person will have a possible death year. 1、流年，大运与命宫天克地冲者，生命有危险。 1. as above. 2、命宫与日支或年支如犯刑冲，贫贱、体弱、短寿。 2. House of Life’s branch clashes with day branch = poverty, poor health or short lifespan. 3、命宫与亡神或劫煞同柱者，或短命或多病。 3. Death star or Robbing star resides in House of Life = poor health or short lifespan. 4、男命，命宫是卯或酉且有凶煞者，妻缘必变。 4. For male person, if House of Life’s branch is E4 or E10 AND has bad stars residing, person has changing affinity with spouse. 5、命宫坐桃花，好色淫乱。驿马同柱者，远走他乡。 5. If House of Life has Flower of Romance star, person is a lecherous philanderer. Has Travelling Horse, person ventures overseas. 6、命宫地支为日干之财星者，主财源旺盛。 6. House of Life’s branch is wealth element, person has a strong source of wealth. [Strength of daymaster not mentioned, I guess not required.] 7、命宫地支与月支相同者，主其人果断智能。 7. House of Life’s branch is exact branch as month’s branch, person is decisive and intelligent. 8、命宫有天乙贵人而坐长生，冠带者，学问丰富。 8. House of Life has Nobleman star with Birth/Attire lifestage, person is knowledgeable. Bazi may need to be renamed as Bazhu (Eight Pillars) because all 8 pillars are recommended to be plotted for full analysis. Or else you’ll feel that something is missing. Bazi is a method which really “need to see whole chart”, unlike Ghost Valley, OLKA and 27-Constellation. While at it, why not see the full whole chart which is 8 pillars? House of Conception’s melodic element is of harmonious nature with Hour, Month and Day pillars’ = person enjoys longevity, maybe that’s why he survived Gui-Si decade pillar though it is same pillar as House of Life (implying a possible death year in that decade). According to a bazi book I read before, a person having lived past 60 years of age is considered as having longevity. Why? Because he/she has lived past all 4 pillars.

House of Body stem combines with daymaster = person has good wealth luck for life. More on the additional 4 pillars... House of Life = DO sits on RW: If daymaster is strong, presence of RW or Frd is generally inauspicious. Person doesn’t get along well with siblings, when outside he/she is also prone to be dragged into trouble by friends, at work there is intense competition with colleagues and overall prone to problems related to romance. If daymaster is strong, absence of RW or Frd means person is able to gain rank/authority but prone to being setup by petty people. If daymaster’s rooting is weak, RW will be useful to help but due to DO’s suppression, the help is minimum. If DO has strong rooting, among person’s siblings will have legal entanglements. House of Conception = DO sits on HO: When HO meet DO, regardless of daymaster’s strength, it is inauspicious especially if HO also resides in other pillars’ stem or DO is Useful god. In person’s life, there will be numerous setbacks and obstacles, prone to being setup by petty people, prone to gossips/slander and have lawsuits or loss of reputation. Regardless of gender, romance/marriage luck will be bad, incompatibility between spouse, spouse’s poor health and spouse’s death/separation during middle age. House of Body = DW sits on HO: As HO supports DW, for weak daymaster, it is inauspicious; person is plagued by troubles related to gossips and slanders. For strong daymaster with weak wealth element, it is auspicious; person has smooth easy wealth flow and luck, unexpected gains, able to gain wealth through other people’s efforts or loss. As HO is of a star of unstable nature, it brings turbulence; person uses undertable means to gain success. As DW is of stable nature, it brings dilemmas and contradictory thoughts to person, in endeavours person has changing warm and cold attitudes and his/her life will also be prone to many ups and downs but eventually will have success. House of Conception Aura = DW sits on RW: As both directly clash and damage each other, regardless of daymaster’s strength, it is inauspicious. DW receives damage which denotes person’s life would be fraught with wealth losses, difficulty to save money and not suitable to start own business. And person’s spouse would have numerous illnesses/calamities or prone to do things which are against morals [infidelity?]. If other pillar has another RW, person is prone to be separated from spouse due to spouse’s death. If this combo appears at Year/Month pillar, person’s father has poor health or poor career luck, especially for yin daymaster who is prone to be separated from father.
