Detecting mean woman from her birthday 泼妇八字

This article lists the Bazi characteristics of mean or difficult woman.   Chinese uses "pōfù" (泼妇) or "fierce and unreasonable woman" to denote this type of woman.  The closest English word to match this Chinese word is "bitch".  The contents here do not mean for strong and/ or career women.

This article enables you to check if someone is a mean woman by using her birthday without meeting her.  This is helpful in making hiring, partnership or dating decisions.

BAZI CHARACTERISTICS OF MEAN WOMAN
1.  Chart with strong +output star (shang-guan) in both stem and branch levels:
  • Jia-wood daymaster with strong Ding-fire
  • Yi-wood daymaster with strong Bing-fire
  • Bing-fire daymaster with strong Ji-earth
  • Ding-fire daymaster with strong Wu-earth
  • Wu-earth daymaster with strong Xin-metal
  • Ji-earth daymaster with strong Geng-metal
  • Geng-metal daymaster with strong Gui-water
  • Xin-metal daymaster with strong Ren-water
  • Ren-water daymaster with strong Yi-wood
  • Gui-water daymaster with strong Jia-wood
Woman with strong +output star has bad temperament, opinionated and likes to handle things HER ways.  Other people have extreme difficult to sway her decisions.  If this chart also have +power star, this stubborn and strong characters will be more evident.

2.  Chart with yang-knife (+peer/ jie-cai) in branch level:
  • Jia-wood daymaster with Mao-wood in any branch
  • Yi-wood daymaster with Yin-wood in any branch
  • Bing-fire daymaster with Wu-fire in any branch
  • Ding-fire daymaster with Si-fire in any branch
  • Wu-earth daymaster with Wu-fire in any branch
  • Ji-earth daymaster with  Si-fire in any branch
  • Geng-metal daymaster with You-metal in any branch
  • Xin-metal daymaster with Shen-metal in any branch
  • Ren-water daymaster with Zi-water in any branch
  • Gui-water daymaster with Hai-water in any branch
Woman with yang-knife in her chart has strong individuality/ personality.  If this yang-knife is penalized or clashed, she is even more bitchy, confrontative and resistant.  If chart has yang-knife, -power (qi-sha) and -resource (pian-yin), this woman is calculative, arbitrary and very difficult to interact with.

3.  Chart with mixing of + and - power stars (guan-sha mixing up) and DM is strong:
  • Jia- or yi-wood daymaster with Geng-metal and Xin-metal in stem level and Yin-wood and Mao-wood in branch level.   Birth month is Yin, Mao, Hai or Zi.
  • Bing- or Ding-fire daymaster with Ren-water and Gui-water in stem level and Si-fire and Wu-fire in branch level. Birth month is Yin, Mao, Si or Wu.
  • Wu- or Ji-earth daymaster with Jia-wood and Yi-wood in stem level and Chen-, Wei-, Xu-, Chou-earth,  Si-fire and Wu-fire in branch level. Birth month is Chen, Wei, Xu, or Chou.
  • Geng- or Xin-metal daymaster with Bing-fire and Ding-fire in stem level and Shen-metal and You-metal in branch level. Birth month is Chen, Shen, You, Xu or Chou.
  • Ren- or Gui-water daymaster with Wu-earth and Ji-earth in stem level and Hai-water and Zi-water in branch level. Birth month is Hai, Zi, Shen or You.
Woman with this "guan-sha mixing up" in her chart has no principle and plays tricks.  It is difficult to get rid of her once she "attaches" to you.

4.  Chart with numerous + and - peer stars (bi-jian/ jie-cai):
  • Jia- or yi-wood daymaster with numerous Jia-, Yi-, Yin- and Mao-wood 
  • Bing- or Ding-fire daymaster with numerous Bing-, Ding-, Si- and Wu-fire 
  • Wu- or Ji-earth daymaster with numerous Wu-, Ji-, Chen-, Xu-, Chou- and Wei-earth
  • Geng- or Xin-metal daymaster with numerous Geng-, Xin-, Shen- and You-metal
  • Ren- or Gui-water daymaster with numerous Ren-, Gui-, hai and Zi-water 
Woman with numerous peer stars in her chart lacks reasoning, thinking/ planning, is impulsive and likes to do things rashly.

Don't get mad if your chart matches one or more of the above features.  One should look at the WHOLE chart and not just the features above to determine DM is a mean person or not.  Very often, the presence of certain star can turn these mean features into advantages.  For example, a chart with numerous peer stars but also with at least a power star to keep peer star in check, DM can accomplish great feats.

Finally, women have no monopoly of being mean.  Men could also be mean and hideous. But the male version of Bazi characteristics are different to certain extent.

How to check one loves his wife or mistress more?

There is a saying in Taiwan about the nature of man-- "Nine out of ten men cheat.  The 10th man is impotent."

While this may be a sweeping generalization, but it is pretty close to the truth or world population would have been much smaller.

In this article, we utilize the power of Bazi or 4-pillars astrology to find out if a man loves his wife or mistress/ girl friend more by examining certain feature in his birth chart.  "Mistress or girl friend" here is defined as a woman who have repeated sexual relationship with a married man.  This does NOT include the one-night stand affairs.

BAZI FEATURES OF MAN WITH MISTRESS/ GIRL FRIEND

1.  Chart with -wealth star (pian-cai) stronger than +wealth star (zheng-cai):  -Wealth star represents mistress and +wealth star wife for a male chart.  When -wealth star is stronger than +wealth, it implies his mistress is more capable than wife.  Hence this man tends to prefer or love the mistress more.

2.  Chart with -wealth star (pian-cai) exposed in stem level and  +wealth star (zheng-cai) hidden in branch level:  -Wealth star showing up in stem level means mistress is visually seen in public with this man. This also means husband interacts with mistress more in public.  This may also be a type of showing off.   +Wealth star is hidden in stem level means husband rarely goes out with wife.  He may be uncomfortable to show off wife in public with him.  In short, this implies mistress has higher priority or status in this man's mind.

3.  Chart with  +wealth star (zheng-cai) "gaining position妻星得位 and strong:   In Bazi, "gaining position" happens when a +wealth star sits in spouse palace or day-branch.  If a husband chart with +wealth wife star gaining position or with nurturing by other star or with multiple +wealth stars,  this means wife is strong, capable and intolerant of a mistress.  This husband is also likely a "wife-fearing" person or even bullied by his wife.

4.  Chart with multiple -wealth stars (pian-cai):  This means -wealth mistress star is strong and with stronger karma connection with husband.  He is likely to love the mistress more than the wife.  He may even have no love or feeling for wife.

The above info is useful for any woman to weed out potential unfaithful partner before investing too much energy and resources on the guy.

Bazi can also predicts who will win in a love triangle like 2 women fight for a husband, 2 men fight for a wife, who will cheat in a marriage plus many other life events and even Feng Shui and date-selection!

Quick check of people with good temperament 速断好脾氣

Below is a quick way to identify people with good temperament based on the day of birth of their Bazi birth charts.  This info is helpful when dating a new person, making a new friend/ partner or hiring a new employee.

Before we go further, please note that "good temperament" is NOT equal to "good personality".  Although people with good personality are more likely to have good temperament.  Good tempered people could also be cunning, deceitful, lazy, mean and etc..

4 TYPES OF DAY-PILLARS WITH GOOD TEMPERAMENT

1.  Day-pillar with +power star (zheng-guan) at the branch (日支坐下正官):  geng-wu, bing-zi, xin-si and ding-hai days.

2.  Day-pillar with +resource star (zheng-yin) at the branch (日支坐下正印):  jia-zi, ji-si, yi-hai and wu-wu days.

3.  Day-pillar with -resource star (pian-yin) at the branch (日支坐下偏印):  bing-yin, ding-mao, geng-chen, xin-chou, ren-shen and gui-you days.

4.  Day-pillar with +wealth star (zheng-cai) at the branch (日支坐下正財):  wu-zi, ren-wu, ji-hai and gui-si days.  

3 TYPES OF DAY-PILLARS WITH GOOD TEMPERAMENT SOCIALLY BUT ARE RUDE/ IMPATIENT TO FAMILY MEMBERS

The following day pillars put up a facade of good temperament to outside world but are rude and even vicious to their own family members or people close to them .

1.  Day-pillar with -power star (qi-sha) at the branch (日支坐下七殺):   wu-yin, ji-mao, jia-shen, yi-you, ren-xu, ren-chen, gui-wei   and   gui-chou   days.

2.  Day-pillar with -wealth star (pian-cai) at the branch (日支坐下偏財): jia-xu, jia-chen, yi-chou, yi-wei, bing-shen, ding-you, geng-yin   and  xin-mao   days.

3.  Day-pillar with -output star (shi-shen) at the branch (日支坐下食神):   bing-chen, bing-xu, ding-chou, wu-shen, ji-you, ren-yin, gui-mao   and   ding-wei   days (these day-pillars are mostly impatient, anxious and not rude).

Please note that this is a "quick check" only.  A more accurate reading should be reading the whole birth chart and not just the day branch.

Missing element/s and personality 五行命理解說

In previous article we have discussed what may happen when a chart has missing transformation stars or "10-gods".  In this article we focus on the missing element in a Bazi chart.

According to Chinese cosmology, the world is formed with 5 basic elements or primal energies represented by water, wood, fire, earth and metal.  Human destiny is determined by the interplay of this 5 basic energies.  All living organisms survive under the natural rules and restrictions of 5-elements.

For the Chinese Daoists, the only way to achieving true freedom and immortality is to: 

"Hop out of the 3 realms and live outside the boundary of 5-elements 跳出三界外,不在五行中".   (Note: 三界 "3-realms" is triloka-- sensory, form and formless realms)

Whereas missing transformation star focuses primarily on the social and family aspect, missing elements are more onto the personality of the chart owner or daymaster. 

People with a completed set of 5-elements in their birth charts are the relatively blessed group and have long life expectancy.  They are likely to live a stable/ peaceful life with no major ups and downs (but not necessarily rich and famous).  If they run into obstacles or setbacks, they are likely going through them without a scratch.

If one's chart has a weak or missing element, one is likely has some aspects of life missing or obstacles related to that element.  Below are the meanings of missing a element in a chart

MEANINGS OF WEAK OR MISSING ELEMENT

1.  Weak or missing water element:  Water element is exemplified as ocean, sea, river, lake and stream in nature.  Water stands for intelligence in Chinese metaphysics.  Water flows downward and has no shape.  It's form changes with the container holding it.  When applying water nature to the personality of an individual with strong water, it implies s/he is smart, flexible, a quick learner, adaptive to changes and sociable.  But s/he could be flowery, promiscuous and cunning if water is too strong.  In contrary, one with weak or missing water element will be rigid, inflexible, having problems adapting to changes, lacking planning and not too smart.

2.  Weak or missing wood element:  Wood element is exemplified as trees, plants, grass and flowers in nature.  Wood stands for kindness in Chinese metaphysics.  Wood is solid and grows upward.  When applying wood nature to the personality of an individual with strong wood, it implies s/he is upright, kind, moving forward and not a quitter.  But s/he could be stubborn, cruel and inflexible if wood is too strong.  In contrary, one with weak or missing wood element will be indecisive, unkind, lacking stamina and motivation to achieve goals, prone to withdrawal and lacking persistence.

3.  Weak or missing fire element Fire element is exemplified as the sun, moon, stars and flames in nature.  Fire stands for courtesy in Chinese metaphysics.  Fire or flame is "hollow" and burns upward.  It is the strongest form of yang energy.  When applying fire nature to the personality of an individual with strong fire, it implies s/he is polite, cultured, proactive, enthusiastic and cheerful.  But s/he could be impatient and hot-tempered if fire is too strong.  In contrary, one with weak or missing fire element will be a laggard, impolite, lazy, lacking enthusiasm and has problems achieving goals.

4.  Weak or missing earth element:  Earth element is exemplified as the field, plains, soil, sands, mountain and rocks in nature.  Earth stands for trust/ faith in Chinese metaphysics.  Earth is stable and gives rise to "everything"  ("mother earth" gives rise to plants/ metal and etc.).   When applying earth nature to the personality of an individual with strong earth, it implies s/he is trustworthy, keeping promise, honest, reliable, inclusive, reputable and stable.  But s/he could be inflexible and rigid if earth is too strong.  In contrary, one with weak or missing earth element will be lacking credibility/ trust and impulsive.

5.  Weak or missing metal element:  Metal element is exemplified as the metal ores and precious stones in nature.  Metal stands for righteousness in Chinese metaphysics.  Metal is rough and tough.  When applying metal nature to the personality of an individual with strong metal, it implies s/he is full of righteousness, authoritative, loyalty,  fighting injustice, not hesitating to take action against evils/ criminals, can achieve major feats and is leadership material.  But s/he could be rigid and vengeful if metal is too strong.  In contrary, one with weak or missing metal element will be lacking authority, indecisive and worrying too much.

In conclusion, a weak or missing element in a chart can release critical social, familial and personality data of the daymaster or chart-owner.  This info is very useful for looking for friendship, dating and business partners.

Missing a transformation star or "10-god" in a Bazi chart

Bazi astrology reading is based on the interplay of the basic 5-elements and the 10 transformation stars or "10-gods" represented by these 5-elements.  It is not uncommon for a Bazi chart missing one or more of the five elements (water, wood, fire, earth and earth).  What are the implications of this missing element or transformation star?

In this article we focus on the missing transformation star first.  10-transformation stars represent a person's social aspects and family linkages like wealth luck, career, siblings, love relationship and the likes.  Missing a transformation star due to a missing element will affect the luck trend represented by that transformation star.

Below are the meanings of missing a certain transformation star in a chart:

1.  Missing  peer stars (bi-jian/ jie-cai):  Peer stars represent one's (daymaster or DM) siblings, friends, co-workers, peer group and sociability.  Missing peer star means DM has poor social skill, problem making friends, indecisive, lacking initiative and vision, following but not taking charge, over-cautious and not generous.

2.  Missing  output stars (shi-shen/ shang-guan):  Output stars represents DM's EQ, smart, talent, imagination, creativity and juniors/ subordinates.  Missing output star means DM lacking talent and opportunity to utilize his/her talent, is ineloquent and not good at generate money.  If DM is a female, may have problem raising kids or lack relationship with her children.

3.  Missing  wealth stars (pian-cai/ zheng-cai):  Wealth stars represents DM's wealth luck, wealth management power and opportunity.  It also represents DM's father.  Missing wealth star means DM lacking money management skills and wealth opportunities, and has little or no relationship/ karma with father.  If DM is a male, may have problem getting married or lacking relationship/ karma with wife.

4.  Missing  power stars (qi-sha/ zheng-guan): Power stars represents DM's social status, executive power, self-control, career and superiors.  Missing power star means DM lacks self-control, inconsiderate, prone to laziness, big swing of ups and downs skills and is difficult to get social approval and recognition.  If DM is a female, may have problem getting married or lacking relationship/ karma with husband.

5.  Missing  resource stars (pian-yin/ zheng-yin): Resource stars represents DM's education, career, family, parents, senior generation and helpful mentors.  Missing resource star means DM lacks relationship with mother, problem getting academic achievement and real estate, instability in career and feeling insecure.   

The above observations focus mainly on the missing star is favorable to the chart.  If the missing element is unfavorable and does not show up, DM may get the benefit of that missing element.  The degree of positivity or negativity due to a missing star also depends on chart composition and whether DM is strong or weak.

There are some remedies for missing transformation star or element that you may find in this course:

Grand Duke Talisman Charity Drive 2024

 This post is based on my past posts about "Grand Duke Talisman charity drive" with updates for 2024.

If you have read my old message about functions of Grand Duke, you know that there are two Grand Dukes watching over your shoulder, counting the good and bad deeds that you have done and executing rewards and misfortunes accordingly.  Our Grand Duketalismans are consecrated with the energy from Grand Duke and his mother Dou-mou (mother or commander of 60 Grand Dukes).  Hopefully, our talismans will motivate Grand Duke to be easy and generous on you when his mother is around him.
Why do we ask for a charitable donation for this talisman?  When your talisman is grounded with a charitable deed, GD is less likely to execute any misfortunes due from your karma account. The rationale for donation is an exchange of energy-- using a charitable deed in exchange of protection energy from Grand Duke.  One cannot get something out of nothing.
2024 GRAND DUKE GENERAL LI-CHENG      
2024 is Jia-chen or year of wooden-dragon.  Grand Duke for the year is General Li-cheng who was a county official during  Yuan Dynasty (1271-1368).  Li was venerated for his honest and upright administration.
DO YOU NEED A 2023  GRAND DUKE TALISMAN? 
Anyone can use a Grand Duke talisman for enhancing luck and protection.  But for 2024, five groups of people need Grand Duke Talismans:

1. "Fu-yin" or same animal sign of Grand Duke 值太岁-- people with dragon sign
  • Birth years: 1940, 1952, 1964, 1976, 1988, 2000, 2012  
  • Symptoms: obstacles, stagnation or running "reverse" instead of forward and not suitable for travels. 
2. "Fan-yin" or "clashing" the animal sign of Grand Duke 冲太岁-- people with dog sign
  • Birth years 1946, 1958, 1970, 1982, 1994, 2006, 2018
  • Symptoms: big fluctuations in luck, accident, sickness, surgery, losing competitions/wealth, moving, death, changing job
3.  "Hai" or "harming" the animal sign of Grand Duke 害太岁-- people with rabbit sign 
  • Birth years: 1939, 1951, 1963, 1975, 1987, 1999, 2011, 2023
  • Symptoms: interpersonal relationship problems, negative romance, marital problem, backstabbing  
4. "Po" or "breaking" the animal sign of Grand Duke 破太岁-- -- people with ox sign
  • Birth years:  1949, 1961, 1973, 1985, 1997, 2009, 2021   
  • Symptoms: backstabbing at work, over-consumption, no luck in non-regular income like gambling/ stock and success slips away in the last minute
5.  "Xing" or "penalizing" the animal sign of Grand Duke 太岁---- people with dragon sign
  • Birth years:  1940, 1952, 1964, 1976, 1988, 2000, 2012  
  • Symptoms: big fluctuations in luck, wealth, career, relationship and health; traffic accident, sickness, surgery, losing competitions/wealth, moving, death,  negative romance, quarrels and etc.
GRAND DUKE TALISMAN FOR FENG SHUI REMEDY

Click to enlarge
House violating Grand Duke
In 2024 Jia-chen year, if your house faces chen-dragon mountain or SE1  (112.5- 127.5 degree) direction, your house is said to be "violating Grand Duke."  House violating GD will affect the overall luck, health and well-being of the people living inside.  The remedy is either avoiding movement, construction, earth-digging and demolition there or put up a Grand Duke talisman facing SE1 direction.  The opposite side of Grand Duke is Year-breaker (Sui-po, NW1 or Xu-dog mountain).  This location should avoid digging and activities too. 

Even with the GD talisman, if you need to do construction, you still need to do a date-selection for an auspicious date and start digging on a non-GD direction and finish last on the GD direction. 

Desk violating Grand Duke 
If your desk or wherever you sit for an extended time faces Chen-dragon mountain or SE1 direction, you can put up a Grand Duke talisman there for protection. It is not auspicious to face the Grand Duke direction.  It weakens your competition power in business/career and examinations. However, if you arrange your seat so that SE1 will be at your back (and put a Grand Duke talisman there), you will get Grand Duke as support and is good for competition and business (not recommended for people with dog animal sign). 

GRAND DUKE TALISMAN OFFERS
This year we use digital delivery of Grand Duke Talismans because "snail mail" is slow and prone to losses.  Ken Lai will create a GD Talisman, blessed and "activated" on screen digitally. This activated GD file will be emailed to you with notes.  You can print as many copies as you want (but for one unique-named person only).  In this way, you can replace soiled or damaged talismans.  You can carry one talisman in your wallet and post one in your home and/or office for Feng Shui remedy.  You get more "mileage" from a single donation this way.
Below are some charities that you can send your donation to.  But you can always support your local charities like food-shelf or soup kitchens, especially during the current COVID-19 pandemic.
  • homeless shelter
  • Save-the-Children (www.savethechildren.org) 
  • UNICEF (United Nation Children's Fund)
  • Smile Train (www.smiletrain.org) 
  • children hospital
  • food shelves/soup kitchen
  • Red Cross
  • animal shelter/ humane society
  • Doctors without border (https://donate.doctorswithoutborders.org/onetime.cfm) 
  • Your local COVID-19 pandemic charity.
Donation made to help alleviate an urgent human/ animal need or suffering (e.g., feeding the hungry, tornado/ typhoon victims or homeless) gets you more karma credits than donation for public good or improvement of public life like church/ temple or public radio/TV.
If you are worried about privacy issues and future solicitations-- please be assured that no future solicitation or email will be sent to you in the future. You send me NO money. You send your donation directly to your favorite local or international charity.  No purchase involved.  This offer is for people who have no access to Daoist temples.  Please support your local temple if you have access to one.

SUGGESTED DONATION  (same old 2010 pricing!)
If you need more than one Grand Duke Talismans, here is the discount schedule:
 --one talisman US$30 donation (US$5 if you are unemployed/under-employed)
 --two talismans US$50 donation ($10 if unemployed/under-employed )
 --three talismans US$60 donation ($15 if unemployed/under-employed )
You may go to www.xe.com to calculate the equivalent of US$30 to your local currency.
NOTE:  People from countries with annual personal income per capita income below US$8000.00 can use the "under-employed and unemployed rate".
NO MONEY?  NO PROBLEM
Simply perform an act of kindness like visit a senior citizen, feed a homeless animal, buy a meal for the hungry,  tutor a needy student-- any help or emotional support to all living being and the like can be a substitute of a monetary donation.  Email me what you have done (great if you show photo, but not compulsory) and I shall email you the talisman.
Talisman that is grounded with a charitable event works more effectively because it has an exchange of one type of energy for protection energy.

Day pillars that are prone to marital disharmony 婚姻不顺日柱

A Bazi natal chart consists of  year, month, day and hour "pillars" derived from the birthday and birth hour of an individual.  Each pillar has a "stem" and "branch".  The stem of day pillar represents the "daymaster" (DM) or the chart owner.  The branch of day pillar is the "spouse palace" which represents DM's spouse.  Bazi reading sometimes uses only the day pillar to predict a person's marital blessing or problems.

Please check the Appendix below if you do not know how to calculate your day pillar.

There are 60 possible day pillars.  The list below shows specific day pillars that tend to have more marital problems and disharmonies: 

1.  Day pillar with yang-ren (yang-knife): hurts or jinxes spouse
Male day-pillars with Ren-zi and Bing-wu; female with Ding-si and Gui-hai-- have unsettling marital relationship.   If the branch element is unfavorable-- DM's spouse may be maimed or even died.  If favorable, spouse is helpful but still prone to disability or chronic illness.
 
2.  Day pillar sits on peer star (bi-jian/ jie-cai):  spouse is prone to affair
DM sits on peer star means someone similar to DM sitting in spouse palace with your spouse.  This means spousal infidelity.   Here are the day pillars sitting on peer star:  Jia-yin, Yi-mao, Wu-chen, Wu-xu, Ji-wei, Ji-chou, Geng-shen and Xin-you.

However, if peer star is favorable, this means DM and spouse are united, helpful and sharing same ideals.  If unfavorable, spouse likes to cheat and gives money to his/ her lover.

3.  Day pillar with stem and branch battling each other: disharmony

Battling stem and branch with hidden combination:  This means even the couple does not get along well,  they nonetheless put up with each other due to this hidden combination.   Here are the pillars with hidden combination between stem and branch:  Ding-hai, Wu-zi, Xin-si, Ren-wu, Ji-hai and Gui-si.

4.  Female Day pillar with +output (shang-guan) stem
+Power star (Zheng-guan) is the husband of a female DM.  +Output star "hurts" +power star and sits in spouse palace means jinxing husband.  Day pillar with +output branch are: Jia-wu, Yi-si, Geng-zi and Xin-hai.
