How to check career and residential changes

"When will I change career?"  "When will I buy or build a house?"  These are common questions in a Bazi consultation.

Career and residential changes are checked through  branch clashes in one's Bazi chart with luck periods.  Whether the results are positive or negative depends on the favorableness of the luck period.

• Zi, wu, mao and you regional clashes:  stand for residential change but no career change.
• Yin, shen, si and hai career clashes:  stand for both career change and residential change.
• Chen, xu, chou and wei career clashes:  stand for career change but no residential change.

Resource stars (zheng-yin/ pian-yin) represent house or property in Bazi.  The clashing and combination of resource star reflect changes in property ownership or movement (not elaborated here for this article).

WORK OR CAREER CHANGES BASED ON 10-GODS

Career or employer is represented by power stars (zheng-guan/ qi-sha) in terms of transformation stars ("10-Gods").  Career changes are likely to occur when:

• 10-years-luck/ annual luck bring in output star (shang-guan/ shi-shen)--  career or job duty changes
• 10-years-luck/ annual luck branch clashing the power stars (zheng-guan/ qi-sha) in the chart--  career or job duty changes
• 10-years-luck/ annual luck pillars clashing or modifying the power stars (zheng-guan/ qi-sha) and resource stars (zheng-yin/ pian-yin) in the chart--  both career and residential changes

When to fire your boss or change job

"When will I change job,  get a promotion, get a raise" and the likes are popular questions during a Bazi reading.  People have never asked me when they get a demotion or salary cut.

Today is your lucky day, below are the secrets of career and income changes.

You may have career and income changes when:

1.  Annual luck or 10-years-luck period clash or combine with the power star (Zheng-guan/qi-sha) in your Bazi chart:  +Power star stands for your current stable job and -power for unsteady job.  If power star is favorable to your chart, it implies the change is in the negative direction like demotion, salary decrease or harsh working environment.  If power star is unfavorable, it implies the change is in the positive direction like promotion, salary increase or improvements in working environment.

2.  Annual luck or 10-years-luck period clash or combine the resource star (Zheng-yin/pian-yin) in your Bazi chart:   Resource star stands documents, rights, order, official seal (authority) and the like.  In short, it stands for authority based on a position.   When resource star is clashed or combined, it means changes in your job or career.  If resource star is favorable to your chart, it implies demotion, salary decrease or work pressure due to job changes.  If resource star is unfavorable, it means promotion, salary increases or better work conditions due to the changes.

3.  Traveling horse star is clashed or combined by luck period/s or luck period/s bring in traveling horse star:  This implies your living environment is changed.  Traveling horse star represents mobility and usually associated with relocation.  Traveling horse stars are: yin, shen, si and hai.  If traveling star is favorable to your chart, you are likely to leave hometown for wealth and make it big (hence dislikes clashing or combination).  If unfavorable, you work hard and hectically for money.

Bazi: Predicting Career or Job Changes

In modern age, few people stay in one job or company for life.  Most of us would change careers, jump to another company, getting promoted/ fired/ relocation or start our own business.  One may want to predict when such change is likely to happen-- consult your own Bazi chart and luck period.

Below are what to check for career changes in one's Bazi chart:

Year that -power star (qi-sha) shows up:  +power (zheng-guan) stands for stable job.  -power stands for innovation, new career, new plan or new business.  Hence annual luck that brings -power usually signifies changes in one's career.

Year that +power star (zheng-guan) combines with daymaster:  Examples are: yi-DM with geng power star; ding-DM with ren, ji-DM with jia.  When a luck period brings a +power star,  it usually has something to do with career, especially if power star is favorable to the chart.  When power star combines with DM, it is likely related to promotion or new opportunities.

Year when power stars (zheng-guan/ qi-sha) is clashed or combined:  Power stars represent work, position, duties and etc. Interactions with power star usually signifies changes in one's career.  If luck period has interaction with the power stars in natal chart, it will also brings changes in one's career.  If the interaction is from 10-year luck period, it means these changes could last for 10 years (or means frequent changes).

Year when resource star (zheng-yin/ pian-yin) is clashed or combined:  Resource stars represent contracts, documents, regulation, power, order and etc.  It also represents living and working environment.  Hence when annual luck clashes or combines with resource star, will likely prompt changes in career, including relocation of residence.  If annual luck creates "power and resource mutual nurturing 官印相生", DM is likely to have promotion. If the interaction is from 10-year luck period, it means these changes could last for 10 years (or means frequent changes).

Year with strong +output (shang-guan):  Strong +output will make DM think of changes and likely feel dissatisfied with current career or  cause disharmony in interpersonal relationship.  This could result in changing career due to DM's state of mind or simply pissing off the boss (and get fired).

Year with "traveling horse star":   "Traveling horse star" refers to the propensity to travel or moving (check below for details).  When annual luck brings a traveling horse star, DM is likely have changes in career.  If the star is from 10-year luck period, it means DM is prone to career changes or relocation in this 10 years.  Below is how to calculate your traveling horse star:

• year or day branch is yin, wu or xu, your traveling horse is shen
• year or day branch is si, you or chou, your traveling horse is hai
• year or day branch is hai, mao or wei, your traveling horse is si
• year or day branch is shen, zi or chen, your traveling horse is yin

Note for females:  Power stars mean husband or lover for female. So when power star is clashed, combined or showing up in your chart,  besides career changes, it could also mean something happens in your relationship department-- marriage, divorce, separation, lover, mistress and etc.
