For female person, this is also unfavourable, she is prone to be two-timer in relationships, romantic entanglements, re-marriage and commit infidelity. 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’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.

Frd sits on DW = It is inauspicious more for strong daymaster; hard to accumulate great wealth, has hints of “broken prosperity”.

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.

Whereas for yin daymasters, regardless of gender, this is auspicious; person has good human relations and good career luck.

For yin daymasters, the positive influences as mentioned are lessened and there would be imperfections. 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. 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.

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. -------------------------------------------------------------------------

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. 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. 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. 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. 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. 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. 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. 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. 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. 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. 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. 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. 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. 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, double-standards, dishonesty, impatient (not suitable for negotiation jobs and often gives up halfway). 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. 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. 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. 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. 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. 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. -----------------------------------------------------------------------------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.

For female person, she has a mismatch in marriage and prone to divorce and re-marriage. 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.

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. 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.
