此木根基唯喜砂土,见艮山则依倚摇金,遇寅卯东方得地;
For the root foundation of this wood, only Sandy Earth is good, seeing Gen (8gua) mountain would have to rely on swaying metal (??), seeing eastern places like Yin and Mao would be obtaining the earth (getting support)

辛丑有山,庚子不如;戊寅虽吉,已卯尤胜;
Xin Chou has mountain, Geng Zi is not as well; Wu Yin even though is auspicious, Ji Mao is much better;

丙辰丁已却嫌戌亥对冲;
Bing Chen and Ding Si dislike Xu and Hai clashing.

若见大驿,有丑为山边之驿,稍可,无丑独见此土,主夭贱;
If seeing Great Post (earth), Chou as the relay station besides the mountain, it is okay, if this earth is seen without Chou, it denotes dying young or lowliness.

路旁就位,复值死墓,日时遇之,主人卑弱;

Bing Wu and Ding Wei, bing Ding are real Fire, Wu and Wei are also fire, when this wood arrives at Wu and Wei, it is 'Death' and 'Tomb', Ren Wu seeing this is greatly inauspicious, with Gui, there's some difference, when water is helping, there's no harm.

此木午未已自有火,更见别火,恐引起伤寿,灯头乙已有风木折,主夭;
This wood already has fire in Wu and Wei, seeing more fires probably will injure lifespan, Lamp fire Yi Si has wind, wood can be broken, denotes short life.

炉中寅卯本位,木旺反吉;霹火如壬午见己丑,癸未见戊子,阴阳交遇,更有砂土为基,主贵,若子午丑未对冲则不为吉。
Inside Furnace fire Yin and Mao as wood's original place, when wood is prosperous it is in turn, aupicious; Lightning Fire is like Ren Wu seeing Ji chou, Gui Wei seeing Wu Zi, Yin and Yang meeting each other, with Sand Earth as foundation, denotes nobility, if Zi, Wu, Chou and Wei are clashing, then it is not auspicious.

金见木无造化,钗钏、金泊却喜成功,海、蜡、剑、砂虽忌见之,其间轻重当以禄贵德煞,参祥见松柏木,为脱体化神之格也,主贵。
As for metal, when wood sees metal there's no goodness, Hairpin and bracelet, Gold Foil would like to be successful,Ocean, Wax, Sword, Sand are dreadful to be seen, to analyze these would need to look at 'Lu' (Officer), Gui (Nobility Noblemen), De (Virtuos Noblemen) or Sha (Devils), if this wood sees Pine Wood, it becomes a structure that 'shed off its body and transformed', denotes nobility.

桑柘癸丑为山,作倚傍成林,主吉;
With Mulberry Wood, Chou can be the mountain, Willow can depend on Mulberry and they become forest, denotes auspiciousness.

庚申辛酉木既死绝,又逢金克,以弱遇小,其人必贱。
Geng Shen and Xin You wood are 'Dead' and 'Extinct', furthermore, they are countered by metal, something that is weak seeing something small, thus the person must be lowly.

妙选有花红柳禄格,是以此木遇石榴,生于春夏,不以贱论;
The book of 'Miao Xuan' has a 'Red Flower Willow Fortune' structure, which is this Wood (Willow) seeing Pomegranate wood and is born in spring or summer, this should not be analyzed as lowly.

有杨柳拖金格,是以此木生于三春而时得一金,辛亥、甲子、癸卯、辛已最妙,乃壬癸禄贵之地故也。
Also there's a structure called 'Poplars and Willows trailing on Gold', which is Willow Wood being born in 3 springs and getting only one Metal, like

Xin    Gui       Jia       Xin

BaZi: SMTH - 天元坐煞 Heavenly Origin sitting on Devil

天元坐煞
DayMaster sitting on 7K


谓甲申、乙酉等日。
It's like Day Pillar Jia Shen, Yi You etc.


如乙丑日,丑中自坐辛金为煞,喜生春夏,乙木健旺,煞自有制,不喜明见丙丁,生秋月雕零,坐下藏鬼,岂不为害?
Like Yi Chou day, within Chou the DM sits on Xin metal which is the devil, it likes to be born in Spring or Summer where Yi wood is healthy and prosperous, in that way 7K automatically is controlled, it does not like to see apparent Bing or Ding, if it is born the months of Autumn it will be withered and because it sits on hidden ghost, how can it not be harmful?


凡值此等日,要日干倚旺,再无官煞复克,喜印化煞,财旺身旺,为福。
So when the day pillars are like this, DM must be prosperous and not repeated countered by Officer and Devil, it likes Seal to transform Devil, Prosperous Wealth and prosperous Self, that is blessing.


如煞旺,有伤官合制,亦贵,如无助化,再行煞旺运,或再见煞克,为人必面目瘢痕,侏儒跛鳖,骈指瘤赘,奸贪猛暴,恃强不惮,累犯宪章。
If Devil is prosperous with Hurting Officer to combine or counter, it is noble, if there's nothing to assists or transform, and further Luck goes to Devil or seeing more devil, the persons face is scarred, or he's a midget, lame or inferior person, useless (like something that takes up space but useless), unethical, greedy and tyrannical, (??), (??) (I don't understand the last 2 phrases)


克重多夭,合格为武贵。但为人心多性急,阴险怀毒,僭伪谋害,不近人情。
When counter is heavy, is mostly short-lived, when it falls into a good structure, it denotes martial nobility. But the person would be impatient, treacherous and sinister, pretentious and scheming (to harm), does not get close to people's emotion (or does not reciprocate)

BaZi: ZPZQ - 论偏官 Discussing Indirect Officer

ZPZQ says:


原文:煞以攻身,似非美物,而大贵之格,多存七煞。盖控制得宜,煞为我用,如大英雄大豪杰,似难驾驭,而处之有方,则惊天动地之功,忽焉而就。此王侯将相所以多存七煞也。
Devil attacks Self, so it is not a good thing, but structures of great nobility usually contain Devil. That is because when it is restrained, it is beneficial, Devil will become what I can use, it's like people of great talents are difficult to be managed, if they can be handled properly, they can achieve greatness. Charts of Kings, Dukes, Generals and Ministers generally contain 7K.


原文:七煞之格局亦不一:煞用食制者,上也,煞旺食强而身健,极为贵格。如乙亥、乙酉、乙卯、丁丑,极等之贵也。
There are more than 1 type of 7K structure, the one that uses Food to control, is a high grade chart, when Devil is prosperous and Food is strong and Self is healthy, that is an extremely noble chart. Like


Ding   Yi     Yi    Yi
Chou Mao You Hai


Extremely noble.

原文:煞用食制,不要露财透印,以财能转食生煞,而印能去食护煞也。
Devil that uses Food to restrain, does not want to have exposed Wealth or protruded Seal, as Wealth can transform Food to Devil and Seal can counter Food to save Devil.


然而财先食后,财生煞而食以制之,或印先食后,食太旺而印制,则格成大贵。
And if Wealth is First and Food is after, Wealth can engender 7K for Food to counter, or Seal First and Food after, Food is too prosperous and is restrained by Seal, the structure becomes greatly noble.


如脱丞相命,壬辰、甲辰、丙戌、戊戌,辰中暗煞,壬以透之,戊坐四支,食太重而透甲印,以损太过,岂非贵格?
Like the chart of Prime Minister Tuo:

Wu Bing Jia Ren
Xu Xu Chen Chen

Within Chen there's an obscured Devil, with Ren protruding, and Wu sitting on 4 EBs, thus Food is too heavy and so Jia Seal is protruded to damage the overly strong (Seal), how can it not be a noble structure?


若煞强食泄而印露,则破局矣。
If Devil is strong, Food is exhausted and Seal protrudes, it is a broken structure.


亦有煞重身轻,用食则身不能当,不若转而就印,虽不通根月令,亦为无情而有情。格亦许贵,但不大耳。
There's also charts where Devil is heavy while Self is light, to use Food would be extra burden for the DM, thus it is better to turn to use Seal instead, even though Seal will not be rooted in Month's decree, which is not affectionate but it is still a little affectionate, the structure can be noble but would not be great.


原文:有煞而用财者,财以党煞,本非所喜,而或食被制,不能伏煞,而财以去印存食,便为贵格。
There are also charts with Devil using Wealth, Wealth can shield devil and thus it is not good, but when Food is being countered it cannot restrain Devil, Wealth can get rid of Seal to save Food and that becomes a noble structure.


如周丞相命,戊戌、甲子,丁未、庚戌,戊被制不能伏煞,时透庚财,即以清食者,生不足之煞。生煞即以制煞,两得其用,尤为大贵
Like the chart of Prime Minister Zhou,
Geng Ding   Jia  Wu
Xu     Wei   Zi    Xu

Wu is restrained and thus it cannot manage the Devil, on the hour pillar Geng Wealth protrudes, thus it 'clears the Food' (from being countered by Seal), and then it engenders the inadequate Devil. Engendered 7K is being controlled, both are being used, and thus it is greatly noble.


原文:又有身重煞轻,煞又化印,用神不清,而借财以清格,亦为贵格。如甲申、乙亥、丙戌、庚寅,刘运使命是也。
Also there are charts with heavy DM and light Devil, Devil is further transformed to Seal, thus the Useful God is not clean, and it borrows wealth to clear the chart and it becomes noble.

Like

Geng   Bing   Yi      Jia
Bing    Xu    Hai    Shen


The chart of transportation minister(?) Liu

原文:更有杂气七煞,干头不透财以清用,亦可取贵。
Also, there's mixed Qi 7K, when Wealth is not protruding in the stems, it can be used in a clean manner, and thus it can be noble.


原文:有煞而杂官者,或去官,或去煞,取清则贵。
There are charts with Devil mixed with Officer, when Officer is gone, or when Devil is gone, the chart clears up and becomes noble

Trey: 'gone' means been combined away or countered away.

如岳统制命,癸卯、丁巳、庚寅、庚辰,去官留煞也。
Like the chart of General Yue

Geng  Geng   Ding     Gui
Chen  Yin      Si        Mao

Officer is gone and Devil stays. (Ding is countered by Gui and Si is saved)

夫官为贵气,去官何如去煞?
When Officer represents the Qi of nobility, how can getting rid of Officer can be compared to getting rid of Devil?

岂知月令偏官,煞为用而官非用,各从其重。
When the Month's Decree is Indirect Officer, Devil is used and Officer is not used, and that is how we weigh (the importance)


若官格杂煞而去官留煞,不能如是之清矣。
If it is an Officer structure that is mixed with Devil, and then Officer is gotten rid of while Devil is saved, it is not as clean.

如沈郎中命,丙子、甲午、辛亥、辛卯,子冲午而克煞,是去煞留官也。
Like the chart of Imperial Guard(?) Shen,

Xin   Xin    Jia    Bing
Mao Hai   Wu    Zi

Zi is clashed with Wu and thus it counters Devil, the devil is gone and Officer saved.


原文:有煞无食制而用印当者,如戊辰、甲寅、戊寅、戊午、赵员外命是也。
Also, there's Devil that is not restrained by Food, but it's useful to Seal,

Such as

Wu   Wu   Jia    Wu
Wu   Yin   Yin  Chen

Chart of ministry councillor Zhao

原文:至书有制煞不可太过之说,虽亦有理,然运行财印,亦能发福,不可执一也,乃若弃命从煞,则于外格详之。
In books, there's a saying that Devil must not be overly restraint, this is reasonable, thus when Luck goes to Wealth or Seal, one can be successful, then there's 'Abandoning Life to Follow Devil structure (follow 7K)'. This should be analyzed as external (special) structure.

End of chapter

假令甲寅生人为身旺,岁月见庚申为煞旺,柱中不透火制,地支子辰会印成局,则煞生印,印生身,作权贵看。
If Jia Yin person is born as prosperous Self, in Year or Month pillar seeing Geng Shen as prosperous Devil, and within the pillar fire does not protrude to counter Devil but seeing Zi Chen on EB to meet as the frame of Seal, then Devil will engender seal and seal engender Self, this is looked as having authority and status.


年干露煞与月令时支不同,太岁乃一生之主,最重。.
When Devil is exposed on the Year HS, it is different from being exposed on Month or Hour, as the Grand Duke (TaiSui) is the Master of one's life, it is the heaviest.

If DM is born in the month of Yin, Wu or Xu or the months where wood is prosperous, fire restraining(7K) and self is strong, the extinct metal cannot cause harm, so it is auspicious

又云:五行遇月支偏官,只许地支一位,多则不佳,四柱纯煞有制,定居一品之尊。
Also it is said: Five elements seeing month EB as Indirect Officer, it should only be one, more is not good, if the four pillars has the pure 7K that is restrained, the person will be as noble as the first grade officials (the highest government office in ancient china)


略见一位正官,官煞混杂,反贱。
But if it also sees one Direct Officer, Officer and Devil mixed, is lowly instead.


四柱煞旺,运纯身旺,为官清贵。
When the Devil is prosperous in the 4P, and LP cause Self to be prosperous, one will become a clean and noble government official.


又云:身煞俱旺,无制伏,又行煞旺运,虽贵不久。
It is also said: When Self and Devil are equally strong, without restrained, and LP goes Devil prosperous, even if noble, it will not last.


That's all for today's translation
