Dear all,
Thanks for the replies, though the response is not as much as expected :) It is only thru' practice where we learn!
Below is my step to step analysis & reply to some of the postings :-
渊海子平之《五言独步》云(续):
建禄生提月,财官喜透天;
不宜身再旺,惟喜茂财源。
Analysis : -
癸 癸 壬 丁 坤
丑 丑 子 巳
26 16 6
乙 甲 癸
卯 寅 丑
1. First of all, we have to acknowledge that this is a female chart.
2. She is a Yin Water person (癸水命人) born in the Winter season of Zi month (冬季子月).
3. Zi (of the month branch) is also known as the Star of Prospect (十干禄) to DM.
4. This fulfilled the first condition described in this selected phrase (建禄生提月). Given that there is no other prominent controlling element exists in the natal chart, we are certain that this is a strong DM.
Some may disagree with me on the lacking of strong controlling element (namely, earth). In the event some may not be aware that there are TWO (2) types of earth :
1st Type = Wet Earth (Chou & Chen Earth) ; &
2nd Type = Dry Earth (Xu & Wei)
Chou is considered as one of the Wet Earth that born in the season of STRONG water. I would view Chou as mud than an earth.
5. Since this is a strong & cold chart, we are certain that it is preferrably to have Wealth Deity & Authority Deity to reside in this natal chart (财官喜透天).
6. You may, then, ask what are Wealth & Authority Deities? It is none other than the Fire & the Earth elements.
7. It is without doubt that both the Earth & the Fire do appear in this natal chart. We may, then, want to examine the 'quality' of both the elements? Does it of any help to the DM?
And this is the question I would like to pose to you :)
8. Since this is a strong chart, any addition of energy that further enhancing the strength of the DM is undesirable (不宜身再旺).
9. In this illustrated case, addition of Talent Deity would be beneficial.
10. To sum up : -
- this is a strong DM ;
- Wood, Fire & Earth are the favorable elements to DM ; and
- Metal & Water are unfavorable to DM.
WeiKee had correctly pointed out that Fire & Wood is needed in this chart. But, the concern is the introduction of more earth may not be good. Personally, I feel that the Water is too strong that needs some form of control - earth. To be more specific, dry earth is needed.
Ms/Mr Unknown, on the other hand, pointed out that this chart is being too cold & the elements can be frozen as a result.
In short, we can conclude that the DM is strong + the entire chart is cold & more warm (fire + wood) is needed + dry earth.
Lex felt that the DM, possibly, comes from a well to do family as the favorable elements (fire) are located in the Year Pillar, what do you think ?
