Hi there! I am a novice student in Bazi, and I would like to get advice about these competing interpretations of my chart.

I've consulted several masters before taking a short course on reading my chart.

Previously, 2 masters have told me that I have a Strong Wu earth daymaster as I was born in a fire month. It also helped that the Wu is rooted in Xu. One told me that I have a "Hurting officer generates wealth structure". This seemed to validate my life (entrepreneur who did really well during metal/water periods and had a really bad time during the last 2 wood years). I have been told by many people that my thought processes and way I tend to succeed at things is typically not conventional.

Today, I asked the master teaching the course to help me figure out my chart, because according to his methodology, my chart is a weak Earth dm for these reasons:

• Massive metal output in the hour and year pillars
• The Si-You half combination converting the fire month into metal, removing the seasonal support for the daymaster. So it turns into a weak DM chart due to the amount of drain.
• He said the Wuxu Kuigang has no effect on strength, it only indicates the personality. The Xu root isn't as strong as the season element, which is now metal.
  

He also said that the HO produces wealth structure is not present as the Gui water in the month Heavenly stem has been combined away into Fire due to the Wu Gui Combination succeeding.
I told him that interpretation of a weak Earth dm did not fit my life (fire/earth/wood years tend to be pretty bad for me), and he tested the shi chen before I was born, which was Geng Shen.

He told me in that scenario, the Shen hour combines with Xu and You to form a metal seasonal combination, turning my chart into a fake follow chart, which would also explain why I had great metal/water years.

He's pretty convinced my birth time has a delay or was recorded wrongly, although my mother told me it was recorded on the spot.

Which master was correct? Is the HO producing wealth structure still present in the chart, or should I consider the Gui as a fire element now? Pretty confused at this point.

Thanks so much for any advice in advance!

Hi nin99,

Wow, very nice chart!

Based on Mangpai, this chart works by controlling You Metal and Gui Water.  A very smooth-working chart.
