Bazi: Who will benefit you most?

With Bazi knowledge, you may be able to figure out who will help you or benefit you most if you know their animal signs or birthday.  The term "nobleman" is used in Bazi to represent one's helpful person, mentor and supporter.

1.  People with Chinese zodiac animal sign that combines with your animal sign
-- you are likely to get along with them easily and help each other out.   For example, if your animal sign is rat, people with ox, monkey, or dragon are likely your helpful people.  Below are animal pairs that combine with each other.

• rat and ox      
• tiger and pig
• rabbit and dog
• dragon and rooster
• snake and monkey
• horse and ram
• rat and dragon
• monkey and rat
• snake and rooster
• rooster and ox
• tiger and horse
• horse and dog
• rabbit and pig
• rabbit and ram
• tiger and horse
• horse and dog

2.  People with birth season that nurtures or enhances the favorable elements of your birth chart.   For example, if your favorable element is wood, people who were born in water or winter season or in wood or spring season, will be your "noblemen". 

3.  People who come from the direction represented by your favorable element are likely to be your "noblemen".   For example, if wood is your favorable element, people coming from east and southeast of your city (or birth place, country) are likely your "noblemen" (Note:  you need Bazi knowledge or find a Bazi reader to figure out your favorable element). 

4.  The transformation star ("10-gods") represented by the favorable element ("yong-shen" or "useful god") of your chart is your "nobleman" or helpful person.    For example, if you are a metal daymaster (DM) and wood is your favorable element-- wood stands for "wealth" for you.  Wealth also represents wife, lover and father.  So these people are likely helpful to you.  Below is the people represented by corresponding transformation stars:

TRANSFORMATION STAR (Your favorable element)	PEOPLE REPRESENTED (your likely helpful people)
ZY +resource= Zheng-yin 正印 PY –resource= Pian-yin 偏印	Old generation, teachers, mother
JC +peer= Jie-cai  劫财 BJ –peer= Bi-jian 比肩	Coworkers, competitions, friends, business partners, siblings, classmates
SS +output= Shi-shen 食神 SG +output= Shang-guan 伤官	Junior generation, students, subordinates, kids for female
ZC +wealth= Zheng-cai 正财 PC –wealth= Pian-cai 偏财	Wife/ mistress for male; father

5.  This is more for Chinese or Japanese people-- people's name with the element of your favorable element are likely your noblemen.  For example, water is your favorable element.  Someone with water prefix or element in their name will be your "nobleman".

How to find your helpful people and directions

In Bazi, there is a symbolic star called "Tian-yi Nobleman" that stands for helpful people available when a person is in trouble or danger.

The calculation of Tian-yi Nobleman requires knowledge of Bazi and construction of a Bazi natal chart.  This may be too much for some people.  Here is a simple method to figure out your noblemen or helpful people based on your Chinese zodiac animal sign.

Nobleman animal sign:  dragon, snake, ox
Nobleman Direction:  SE, SE, NE 

DOG (years born: 1934, 1946, 1958, 1970,  1982, 1994, 2006, 2018, 2030, 2042)

Nobleman animal sign:  tiger, rooster, ram
Nobleman Direction:  NE, E, SW 

NOTE:  If a person was born between January 1 and February 3 of the year, his/ her animal sign would be the sign of previous year (due to the Chinese solar calendar).  For example, someone born in January 1 of 2016 (year of monkey) should have the ram sign of 2015.

HOW TO USE NOBLEMAN DATA AND DIRECTION
After you have located your "nobleman" animal signs and direction, you can use it the following ways:
1.  People with animal signs that match your nobleman are likely get along with you better and helpful to you.  So you try to make friend and partner with people with these animal signs.
2.  Nobleman directions are the direction for you to:  i.) seek help;  ii.) escape;  iii.) looking for opportunities/ profits/ wealth

10 birthdays that attract helpful people or mentors

"Birthdays" here are in terms of 60 binomials.  This also means day pillar in a birth chart.

 A Bazi chart consists of year, month, day and hour pillars.  Day pillar represents the daymaster (DM) and his/ her spouse.  For example, Geng-wu, Geng-metal represents the daymaster, Wu-fire represents the spouse.

There are 10 day pillars that can get helpful people or mentors easily, especially with the help of spouse.  They are listed as follows:

Jia-zi:  Zi-water stands for resource ("yin" 印) for Jia-wood DM.
Yi-hai:  Hai-water stands for resource ("yin" 印) for Yi-wood DM.
Bing-zi:  Zi-water represents power ("guan" 官) for Bing-fire DM
Ding-hai:  Hai-water represents power ("guan" 官) for Ding-fire DM.
Wu-zi:  Zi-water stands for wealth ("cai" 财) for Wu-earth DM.
Ji-hai:  Hai-water stands for wealth ("cai" 财) for Ji-earth DM.
Geng-wu:  Wu-fire represents power ("guan" 官)for Geng-metal DM.
Xin-si:  Si-fire represents power ("guan" 官)for Xin-metal DM.
Ren-wu:  Wu-fire stands for wealth ("cai" 财) for Ren-water DM.
Gui-si:  Si-fire stands for wealth ("cai" 财) for Gui-water DM.

Wealth ("cai" 财), power ("guan" 官)and resource ("yin" 印) are considered the three auspicious or desirable items in Bazi.  DM sits on any one of these transformation stars ("10-gods"), if favorable, means at least a helpful spouse for him/ her.

You have a one in six chances of getting one of these day pillars.

Please check the Appendix below on how to figure out your day-pillar from your birthday.

Will I get my millionaire mentor?

We see the words "millionaire" and "mentor" a lot lately. So I did a "google" search on "millionaire mentorship program". I'm amazed by the varieties of "flavors" out there. But most are associated with real estate investment and charge from US$1500- 15,000 for the program. I stumbled into this site which rates popular real estate "gurus" and their seminars/courses. http://www.johntreed.com/rateseminars.html

You may want to check out the article "The real estate B.S. artist detection checklist". If we change the words "real estate" into "Chinese Metaphysics," at least half of the list are just applicable.

I think the most interesting article on this site is the analysis on Robert T. Kiyosaki’ s book "Rich Dad, Poor Dad". Like everyone else, I want to know the real identity of Kiyosaki's "Rich Dad".

OK, how do we find out if we have mentor luck? In BaZi (4P), Tian-yi Nobleman represents mentor luck or helpful people. Here is the formula to find out:

If the heavenly stem of your day pillar is:

Jia, your day/month/hour pillar's earthly branches has/ have chou/ wei;

Chou/ wei is your Tian-yi.

Yi, zi/shen

Bing, hai/you

Ding, hai/you

Wu, chou/wei

Ji, zi/shen

Geng, chou/wei

Xin, wu/yin

Ren, mao/si

Gui, mao/si

Tian-yi Nobleman that is in the day pillar is more powerful in terms of predictive power.

However, women with more than 2 Tian-yi Nobleman could be prostitute OR very sociable.

People with Tian-yi Nobleman are sociable, have good mentor luck and likely become rich outside their hometown.

What if I got no Tian-yi Nobleman in my 4P? Does it mean I won't get my millionaire mentor?

Don't panic, you will get your chance. For example, if you were a Bing person, hai/ you are your Tian-yi Nobleman. When Hai (pig) or You (Rooster) year comes, you may have better mentor luck.

“I want to go to school”

Note: This was written on Nov 28, 2003

Many of us in the United States are probably enjoying big Thanksgiving feasts today. Amid our material abundance, I hope the following story will bring inspiration to our life. Here are the links to the same story with different perspective:

http://www.china.org.cn/english/NM-e/79512.htm

http://www.atimes.com/atimes/China/EA16Ad01.html

This story reminds me of Farmer Li, the farmer who had discovered the tomb of the first emperor of China. Farmer Li had remained almost anonymous and poor until President Clinton met him. Li did not do anything to make thing "happen" and just let fate took over.

Ma Yan, on the other hand, does not quit or surrender to fate and keep fighting. Things changed when she met her "helpful person" from an unlikely source.

Some people in Ma Yan's village are mad at the French assistance. They all ask, "Why Ma Yan and not me? I'm just as poor. She is just lucky."

We may try to explain Ma Yan's good fortune as fate, destiny or even good Feng Shui, that she may sleep in "Wen Chang" (academic) position of her home.

Ma's teacher explains, "It could be luck partially. But given the same opportunity to others, nothing would have happened since most children here do not write diary. Ma Yan has been writing diary since grade 4. She is also persistent and strong-willed to chase after her simple dream of going to school."

Can you imagine how many destinies have been changed by Ma Yan's diary-- at least 16 in her own village alone, not to mention the inspiration that she give to other girls in China for years to come.

A few months ago I saw a report on CNN TV news that a New York cab driver, who is an immigrant from India, donates all his income and tips to run a girl school in India. He does that because, like other countries, girls are more likely left without schooling, become illiterate mothers and perpetuate the same fate to their daughters.

We hear people ask for Feng Shui tips for better wealth and health lucks all the time. One of the better tips is to do good deed and charity work. When you do something good, you feel good. This good-feeling will strengthen your personal "qi field" to fend off bad qi and attract good qi.

Happy Thanksgiving!
