How to check spouse quality from Bazi birth chart 八字看配偶吉凶

Below is a no BS and straight-talk list of how to check the marital quality of one's spouse:

1.  Month pillar of a female chart has stem shang-guan (+output) and branch qi-sha (-power)-- She will marry multiple times.
2.  Female daymaster sits on shang-guan (+output), regardless of its favorability ("yong-shen"), She likely has marital problems and/or jinxing husband.
3.  Male daymaster sits on peer star (bi-jian/ jie-cai)-- He has marital problems.
4.  Female with Jia-yin or Wu-shen day pillar-- Her husband may die of unexpected disaster.
5.  Male daymaster sits on pian-cai (-wealth) is amorous.  He loves mistress more than wife.
6.  Male daymaster sits resource star (zheng-yin/ pian-yin) hindering wife.  Wife does not get along with his mother.
7.  Female chart with both zheng-guan and qi-sha (power stars) in stem level-- This is called "guan-sha mixing up".  She will have marital disharmony, likely marry twice or has lover.
8.  Male chart with both zheng-cai and pian-cai (wealth stars) in stem level-- he will have marital disharmony, likely marry twice or has mistress.
9.  Female chart has strong shang-guan (+output) stars but no wealth star-- She jinxes her husband or marry again.
10.  When day branch (spouse palace) is clashed-- This implies marital disharmony and separation is likely. 
11.  When day branch (spouse palace) is combined--  This implies spouse has affair.
12.  When a male chart day branch has a wealth star (zheng-cai/ piain-cai), regardless the strength of this daymaster, gets a good/ helpful wife.  This is called "wife palace stationed by a wife 妻宫妻守"
13.  When a female chart day branch has a wealth star (zheng-cai/ piain-cai) and is favorable ("yong-shen"),  gets a helpful and capable husband.

Feng Shui Battle: Flying Scissors Vs. Big Cannon 大炮對飛剪

 

A house owner in China had found his neighbor putting up a pair of sharp scissors and mirror facing his front door.  He had responded with a big cannon pointing at the neighbor.

From the pictures, we can guess how this Feng Shui battle is activated.

The "cannon house" has a big 6 panels RED door with 2 lions guarding.  In terms of Form Feng Shui, this red door looks like a giant bloody mouth engulfing anything in its path to this neighbor.  This might, at the least, subconsciously affects the hormonal health of the neighbor.

Red color is regarded as auspicious in Chinese culture.  However, putting too much or excessive red color in the main door of a house could draw misfortune to its residents.  

Red also represents fire and blood.  Misfortunes like sickness, fire and bloody events when annual star like 2-sickness, 5-disaster or 9-purple fire lands on the door region.  

Could the flying scissors with mirror overcome this strong fire energy?  Of course not.  Fire burns the metal scissors.  The mirror is flat which draws the fire image (and energy) TO the "scissor house".  Hence the "cannon house" does not really need the cannon to counter this flying scissors.  But it helps to drain excessive fire energy by "burning" the metal cannon.

My "Advanced Visual Form Feng Shui" course has a chapter on Feng Shui battle.  It can help you to handle Feng Shui battle like this one using inexpensive and low profile everyday items.  In this case, we can help the "scissors house" to turn the hostile fire energy into supporting energy without using hostile or noticeable remedies (3 possible fixes are posted in the "Advanced Visual Form Feng Shui Discussion Group").

Client-based calculation of favorable elements ("Useful Gods") 八字喜用神经验查法

This method of calculating favorable elements is based on client's real life experience.  The Bazi reader asks his client's subjective rating of his/ her experience for at least five years (the more years the better) based on the following questions:

1.  Do you have better luck in the first half OR second half of year xxxx?  (repeat this question for 5+ years).  Note:  "Year" here refers to solar year.  First half is from February to July; second half is from August to January.

2.  Do you have better luck in AM (noon / morning) OR PM (afternoon/ evening)?

FAVORABLE ELEMENTS

  • Better luck in first half of the year-- favorable elements are likely wood and/ or fire
  • Better luck in second half of the year-- favorable elements are likely metal and/ or water
  • Better luck during AM of the day-- favorable elements are likely wood and/ or fire
  • Better luck during PM of the day-- favorable elements are likely metal and/ or water

You need to compare the favorable elements found with this method to the ones based on Bazi theory calculation to see if they match.  If the results do not match, you check if the years under consideration spread across two 10-years luck periods (10YL).  It is also possible that favorable elements of this chart change from one 10YL to another.

In general, client's subjective rating is a more accurate reflection of reality than the result from Bazi theory.  This is because theory cannot take into account of the social and physical environments (Feng Shui) of the client into consideration.  The energies from these environment can affect the balance of a Bazi chart.

Annual luck reading secrets 八字流年秘訣

How do you interpret the combinations between a Bazi chart and annual luck period?  The following pointers should help you to do Bazi annual luck readings.  This article assumes you have basic Bazi knowledge and will not explain the why and how.

While 10-years-luck put emphasis on the branches, annual luck reading focuses on the stems.  It reflects the event types of the interactions between each pillar stem for the year.  

1.  Annual luck combines with the daymaster (DM, chart owner) 流年合日主:  For example, Geng-metal DM combines with the annual luck Yi-wood of 2025.  DM does not feel good emotionally, face obstacles and make wrong decisions.  DM should be conservative and avoid new venture or take risk for the year.   

2.  Annual luck combines with the +wealth star (zheng-cai) of natal chart 流年合正财:  For example, Geng-metal DM's +wealth star is Yi-wood, combines with the annual luck Geng-metal of 2030--  DM may suffer major wealth losses.  If Yi-wood is in year pillar, DM may suffer total loss of ancestral wealth.  DM's wife may have chronic illness.  Single male is prone to romance failure, married male's wife may have affairs or high chance of getting divorced.  Older male may become widower.

3.  Annual luck combines with the -wealth star (pian-cai) of natal chart 流年合:  For example, Geng-metal DM's -wealth star is Jia-wood, combines with the annual luck Ji-earth of 2029--  DM's father suffers illness or DM faces major wealth losses.  Young male DM may get caught with affair or losing money due to lust or sexual traps.  Older DM should wary of his/ her father's health condition.  He may not survive.

4.  Annual luck combines with the +power star (zheng-guan) of natal chart 流年合正官:  For example, Geng-metal DM's +power star is Ding-fire, combines with the annual luck Ren-water of 2032-- Male DM may suffer legal problems, single woman is prone to romance setback, married woman's husband may have affairs or high chance of getting divorced.  Older woman may become widow.

5.  Annual luck combines with the -power star (Qi-sha) of natal chart 流年合七杀:  For example, Geng-metal DM's -power star is Bing-fire, combines with the annual luck Xin-metal of 2031-- is favorable for weak but not strong DM.  Female DM with only -power and no +power star, should beware of marital problems.

6.  Annual luck combines with the +resource star (zheng-yin) of natal chart 流年合正:  For example, Geng-metal DM's +resource star is Ji-earth, combines with the annual Jia-wood  of 2024 -- DM should pay attention to the health of his/ her mother, including the in-law.  Weak DM may have problem getting helpful mentors/ noblemen.

7.  Annual luck combines with the -resource star (pian-yin) of natal chart 流年合:  For example, Geng-metal DM's -resource star is Wu-earth, combines with the annual Gui-water of 2033 -- DM should keep his/her idiosyncrasies or temperaments private.  Weak DM is unable to get helpful mentors/ noblemen.

8.  Annual luck combines with the + or -peer star (bi-jian/ jie-cai) of natal chart 流年合比劫:  For example, Geng-metal DM's +/- peer star are  Geng- and Xin-metal combines with the annual Yi-wood  of 2025 or Bing-fire of 2026-- DM should stay away from peers/ friends to block his/ her money leaking/losing channels.

9.  Annual luck combines with the +output star (shang-guan) of natal chart 流年合伤官:  For example, Geng-metal DM's +output star is Gui-water combines with the annual Wu-earth of 2028 -- single female DM will not be picky as before in mate-selection.  Married couple would temporary stop bickering to fix marital relationship.

When there is no interaction between annual luck and the natal chart, DM will act out the characteristics of that annual luck.  However, there are 3 scenarios meriting serious attention:

1.  +Output star meeting +power star 伤官见官为祸百端:  "Numerous disasters created when Shang-guan meets Zheng-guan".  These disasters include predictable legal, wealth-losing, life-threatening and health problems.

2.  -Resource star meeting -output star 枭印夺食:   These disasters include unpredictable legal, wealth-losing, life-threatening and health problems.

3. Weak DM running into -power luck:   DM suffers bloody event, lawsuits, backstabbing, losing wealth, divorce, accident and the likes.

The topic on how to interpret annual luck clashing the natal chart could be a possible future topic.

WHAT TO LOOK FOR ANNUAL READING:

  1. 10 transformation stars ("10-gods") auspiciousness or inauspiciousness in terms of Yi-si annual luck.

2025 BRANCH CLASH, PENALTIES, DAMAGE AND HARM

  • Si clashes Hai

Above interaction on:

  • Year Pillar:  changes in ancestral, grandparents/ parents
  • Month Pillar:  work/ career changes
  • Day Pillar:  changes in DM or marriage
  • Hour Pillar:  changes within family or children 

This is a basic "generic" annual reading outline of all 10 possible DMs without explanations.  You could use the same basic format to read other years too.  You or your Bazi reader would add the explanations, remedies and enhancements for the client (detail of the reading depends on how much is charged).   A more accurate reading should also integrate your client's current 10-year-luck and natal chart into the analysis.  

Please be aware that when adding annual luck and 10YL to the natal chart for analysis, there are possibilities that the favorable/ unfavorable elements may change for the year!  For example, if fire is the favorable element in the natal chart, by change both annual luck and 10YL bring in 4 fire elements into the system, fire may become unfavorable!
