BaZi: SMTH - 官煞混杂 Devil and Officer mixed

人命官煞俱有谓之混杂，只取财印为用，柱元有财，运行财发，大要身强胜任其财方可，身弱官煞混，多夭贫。

When a chart has both Officer and Devil, it is called 'mixed', only Wealth and Seal can be used, if there's no Wealth in the natal chart, seeing Wealth in Luck would be successful, largely, Self must be strong to take on the Wealth, if Self is weak with Officer and Devil mixed, mostly denotes short life or poverty.


身旺有制亦好，无制，成印局化煞亦可。

If Self is prosperous, it's good to have restraint, if there's no restraint, forming a Seal structure to transform Devil is also ok.

诗曰：官煞交加用命推，个中消息要详之，得时身旺分轻重，贵财分明辨别知。

The poem says: When Officer and Devil are together, chart is difficult to be read, the 'news' from the chart has to be analyzed carefully, prosperous Self that has support from the season should be categorized into either light or heavy, noble and wealth have to be distinguished clearly.


如壬辰、丙午、丙辰、癸巳，身煞俱旺，官从戊化，德秀兼备。
