BaZi: NaYin 桑拓木 Wood of mulberry and maclura - Year Pillar Ren Zi or Gui Chou



壬子, 癸丑 桑拓木
Ren Zi, Gui Chou - Wood of mulberry and maclura

桑柘木者,缯彩镒基,绮罗根本,士民飘飘之袂,圣贤楚楚之衣,此木供蚕为弧,其用甚大。
Mulberry and maclura wood, colorful with bases of taels (I have no idea what this means), silk-like root formation, the lightly sleeves of robes for the common people, the neat and lovely cloth for the saints and sages, this wood feeds the silkworm, so its uses is great.

最爱砂土,以为根基,又以辰已为蚕食之地,不宜刑冲互破,路旁、大驿二土次吉,余土无益。
Loves earth inside sand the most, as it can be the root foundation, also Chen and Si as places where silkworm feeds, not beneficial are punishments, clashes and breakage, roadside earth and great post earn are less auspicious, other earths are not beneficial.

水喜天河,为雨露之滋,长流、溪涧、井泉诸水皆可相依,亦须先得土为基,更加禄贵为妙,沧海水漂泛无定,无土主夭。
As for water, it likes heavenly river, as they represent the nourishment from rain and dew, long-lastingly flowing water, stream and gorge water, well and fountain water are all reliable, but first there must be earth as the foundation, then one's fortune can be greater, ocean water floats aimlessly, without earth it represent disaster

见火灯头最吉,亦以辰已之中为蚕位故也;炉中位居寅卯,木之旺地;天上、霹雳二火与此木干支有合化之情,有坎离交媾之妙,俱吉,但诸火不宜叠见。
As for fire, seeing lamp fire is most auspicious, as Chen and Si are places where silkworm feeds; inside furnace fire resides and Yin and Mao, places where wood is prosperous; Fire in heaven and lightning fire can combine and transform with the stems and branches of this wood and thus is affectionate, it has the wonder of Kan and Li copulating (???), that is auspicious, but for all fires, it is not good to be seen repetitively. 

以金言之,砂中第一,剑锋能修整此木,为次,钗泊二金须得土为基,如逢冲破,又凶。
As for metal, metal inside sand as the first, sword metal can repair this wood, thus as second, hairpin and foil metal must have earth as the foundation, if seeing clashes and breakages, it is inauspicious.

木喜庚寅辛卯,为以弱就强,以小变大,作贵格论,纵无砂土,亦吉;
As for wood, it likes Geng Yin and Xin Mao, that is 'the weak following the strong', the little becomes great, and thus is regarded as noble structure, even without sandy earth, it is still auspicious.

平地、石榴,无土则凶;
Wood of flat land, wood of pomegranate, without earth is inauspicious.

大林乃东南蚕食之位,有土资生,主大贵;遇杨柳为桑柳成林,亦是贵格,须生春夏方吉。
Wood of great forest is South East, places where silkworm feeds, if there is earth to support, it denotes great nobility; seeing willow will result in 'mulberry and willow becoming forest', which is a noble structure, but it must be born in either spring or summer to be auspicious.
