Hi Jovian, why don't you use the time to give more information like what kind of business you are in now and what problems you are currently facing. Cashflow, employee, supplier, etc. Current COVID situation if you are doing retail business then I don't think have anything to do with Bazi.

The above belong to fengshui not bazi. They are trying to attract relevant energy into their life. Much like spells and other invocation. Does it work? Well that's depend on the skills and connection of the person who cast it.

Not saying that fengshui doesn't work but trying to say common sense needed to be practice.  I have yet to see any skillful person can cast a spell making an individual bazi's at a very dark point in life suddenly became rich and all problems settled. Most of them are well verse in bazi and an individual approached them at low point in life, they can see that the person's luck will change for the better in few months. These are the clients they will so much cling on to till the point of even providing free service. After the cast of spell and next few months later the client luck changes for the better... so it is the spell or the original luck at play here?

Almost the entire western hemisphere is fengshui-free setup and you don't see them doing worst than the eastern hemisphere. It's an art of manipulating the flow of Qi and if you are living on a 8th story apartment and someone tells you to put a toad figurine facing the door and your money luck will come rolling in... that's a big red flag!

Common sense is an underrated value in the metaphysics world.

your sentence:
Xin Metal DM Hurting Officer is Ren water. Hurting officer function is to attack direct officer, combine 7k and support indirect wealth.

Even if it is not important for reading the Bazi and you just told me 7k+HO = support indirect wealth like a formula.
Yes i can just take it, its fine in itself, and be happy to see this pattern another time somewhere-- nope.

I said combine 7k and support indirect wealth not 7k+HO = support indirect wealth. If you first ignore the reason but instead memorized the formula of (in this case Xin DM HO is Ren) Ren attacks Bing, Combine with Ding and Support Yi, then you will not read it as 7k+HO = support indirect wealth. As a Xin DM, DO is Bing, 7k is Ding and IW is Yi.

All I'm trying to say is, it's much easier to just clueless memorized these things mentioned previous post 1-7 then you start asking what is luck pillar. At this point you just have to know that LP governs 10 years and Yang DM for guys is moving forward from Bazi's month pillar and if Yin DM is reverse from month pillar. Trust me, it will be much easier to understand later. Searching for answer now like why DR meets HO they will attack or why Yin DM for guys LP will reverse is going to cause you so much more wasted time.

I googled "Bazi 10 Gods" and got this site: http://bazisifu.com/blog/ it might not be much information but just an example the abundance of information out there. Until you fully memorized the 10 heavenly stems and 12 earthly branches and their functions, I advise don't start reading those article that explaining how to decode bazi... it will not make any sense to you.

Hi Ari, sorry to stop you there...

I think your questions is too broad and difficult to explain. Just know that the five elements are talking about Jupiter, Saturn, Mercury, Mars, Venus. The movements of these five planets influence our behaviors and decisions making.

I fully understand your dilemma and this is where 95% of people gave up learning Bazi. I recommend the following rules...

1) Don't try to make sense of the reading. (What Jlim did for you up there is not a 1 day skill. Doesn't mean that you see people with similar setting will be having the same problems as you. Many factors comes into play. Strength, season, luck pillar, logics, common sense, etc.)

2) Start with memorizing the 10 heavenly stem and their function. (Jia Yang wood Combine Ji Ying earth, Ren Yang water attack Yang Bing fire, etc etc...)

3) Memorize 12 earthly branches. Directional combination, 3 combinations, 2 combination, clash, punishment, etc. REMEMBER them by heart!

4) Learn palm method for both heavenly stem and earthly branches. (youtube etc...)

5) Understand seasons (Wood is strong in spring, exhausted in summer, dead in autumn, incubating in winter, etc...)

At this point you will still be clueless what is all these about and if you still haven't give up learning, THEN you start to look at bazi strength.

6) Understand 得令，得地， 得势. (spend more time in this because if you cannot get this right, you can never read bazi.)

7) Memorized 10 Gods namely 比劫，食伤，财才，官杀，印枭.

At this point you had already spent 3 weeks to a month with 3-4 hrs each day memorizing things that doesn't make any sense. If you pressed on, congratulations, you are on your way to be the 5%. Now you can pick up any books and you will find that it's easier to understand. You are not ready to read bazi yet. Bazi learning is a journey that most probably you will never arrived at your desired destination. You will keep wanting more and trying to reach further. Point 1-7 is just merely building a vehicle so that you can start moving on its path.

9) Now you have the basic skills and functions of Bazi, I want you to focus on topic. E.g - google - famous people died of pneumonia. Spend a few days look at each persons bazi, establish their DM strength, look at when they start falling ill, when they died, etc. DON'T look at what kind of sickness yet. Keep looking and you will see a pattern forming. Don't get excited and don't start going around telling people when they are going to die...LOL. Now move on to the next topic, e.g List of famous people divorced and do the same...

10) Do not mix things together. If you are looking at someone why they became rich on a certain point in their life, focus on it and don't go look at their marriage. It's because the reading can be contradicting. A person can be striking rich but at the same time broke up with their marriage. A person can be obtaining huge fame and becoming sick at the same time.

By now you had already easily spent 6 months on bazi and you still don't have the confidence to read bazi for people. Trust me don't, you would probably be wrong. You can start discussing and debating bazi with people. You can start reading your own bazi on a DAILY BASIS. See, it's a journey. A very far one. You have to be very stubborn to pressed on with this hobby because it can take a long time before it is rewarding.   

And you think you are on your way with your journey and this is the time I have some bad news for you on the next post.

Cheers...     

Nope... it's not about Hans but since you pointed towards 3 punishments can also be good. Actually I'm talking about his IQ133 and look at his 3 punishment. You suggested that it depend on the born hour and also provided an example of a man born in 1926! How about if the punishment is completed due to hour pillar?

e.g - Born in Wei year/ Yin Month/ Shen day/ Si hour

Now it's the hour that make up 3 punishment, how do we see it's good or bad?

Some schools of Bazi consider a new Day Pillar after 11 pm

Yes I heard some practised that but I use the early and late Zi theory. 

I was browsing infographics in facebook and came across the escape of Frank Morris.
This group is probably the only prisoners that successfully escaped the Alcatraz prison.
They were never seen again since that fateful night. So either they successfully escaped or they drowned swimming to Angel Island.

Curious as always, I dugged up their birth date and had the following...

Frank Morris - 1st Sept 1926 (Look at his EB punishment)

John Anglin - 2nd May 1930

Clarence Anglin - 11th May 1931

Looking at their Bazi, obviously they didn't make it. It's so amazing that fate brought them together and Allen West(didn't manage to escape) was not destined to die.

Read up the stories when you have time... they are quite impressive executing the plans. Frank Morris also has an exceptional IQ level of 133!

If that's the case how did he win 3 major tournament in 2018 and 2019?
