Bazi: Attention drawing chart reading techniques

Note:  The following is an article that I have written for my Bazi/ 4P discussion groups.  I have removed the examples to save space here. 

Many of us may have lots of 4P knowledge but do not know where to start when facing a 4P chart.  Here are 5 major techniques for uncovering a client's past and future major fortunes and misfortunes to create "shock value" (getting attention) when you read a chart.

Technique 1:  Looking for critical "element'"(stem or branch)
Many 4P charts have a critical element that could affect chart balance when it is clashed or combined away.  When this happens, DM is likely running into disaster or misfortune.
  
Technique 2:  Looking for unfavorable element
Some charts are difficult to determine the favorable element, but unfavorable one is usually much easier to find.  In standard charts, the strongest element usually is the unfavorable element.  Look for an annual luck (AL ) with the unfavorable element WITHIN the same unfavorable  luck period (10YL), DM is very likely suffering major setback or disaster due to the doubling of unfavorable elements. 

Technique 3:  Looking for the years when favorable element is clashed/ combined away
The year when favorable element is clashed or combined, DM is likely to suffer misfortune or disaster because the favorable element cannot keep the chart balance. 

Technique 4:  Looking for combinations-- if they result in transformation or not.
1.   When natal chart has combination that cannot transform to new element and runs into annual luck or period luck which brings in the transformation element, DM should have major changes in his life.  The auspiciousness of the change depends on whether the transformed element is favorable to the chart or not.  Sometimes this new addition or quantity of elements may even change the favorable element, qi-flow and balance of the chart.  These are all reasons of major changes of DM's luck and life situations.

2.  When a natal chart has potential 3-unities/ 3-meeting formation that short one element and this missing element is bought to the chart by AL or 10YL, DM's luck and life will see changes regardless if the combination is successful or not.  This is due to the structure of origin natal chart goes through major change in structure and qi-flow, similar to #1 above.

3.  Existing successful combination is "broken" by AL/ 10YL in a natal chart will likely change the structure, qi-flow, balance and even the un/favorable elements.  DM will likely have changes in luck and life situations.

Technique 5:  Looking for qi-circulation
Many natal charts have their own route/s of qi-circulation within a Bazi chart (Note: circulation route of a chart must be forward or backward based on nurturing relationship for same level element; upward or downward for different level element.  There is no diagonal movement).  When this qi-flow route/s is/are interrupted by AL or 10YL, DM is likely to have change of luck and life situations.
