This article is only talking about Earth DM born in Chen , Xu , Chou , Wei month right?
ReplyDeleteNot about follow vibrant structure?
This article talks about 稼穑格, Sowing Harvesting Structure. It's an Earth DM with a complete earth frame Chen-Xu-Chou-Wei.
ReplyDeleteThis is often called 独象, the solitary image, when one element command most of the Qi in a chart. Some books refer this as 一方秀气, the elegant Qi from one direction.
A chart like this favors its own Qi, Seal, Wealth and very weak authority.
How often do we get 4 earths? Most of the time is 2 earth, 2 fire with an HO penetrate w/o any authority. Does it qualify?
ReplyDeleteNot often, but it happens. Without complete Chen Xu Chou Wei, it cannot be this structure.
ReplyDeletemy branches are all earth.Im confused about follow son structure as some texts claim that DM doesnt have to be weak,so long theres no major resource,but others claim this is inconsistente with the basic idea that follow types must be extremely weak.
Deletesee my own exemple
