How to Quickly Master the Core Points of Birth Chart Analysis?
Hello everyone! As a senior analyst at Beidou No. 9 Calendar, I am delighted to share methods for rapidly memorizing key knowledge of birth chart analysis. Although this system is extensive, by grasping the core concepts and utilizing some techniques, you can achieve greater efficiency.
What are Some Memory Techniques for Heavenly Stems and Earthly Branches?
Core Framework Memory Method: Remember the "Four Major Pillars"
Birth chart analysis is like a house supported by four pillars: year, month, day, and hour. Each pillar consists of a Heavenly Stem and an Earthly Branch.
Quick Memorization Rhyme:
"Year, month, day, hour form four pillars, remember stems and branches clearly. With the day's stem clear as fate, analyze the Five Elements to judge fortune and misfortune."
Fast Memory Method for Heavenly Stems and Earthly Branches
Memory of Ten Heavenly Stems:
- Wood: Jia (Yang Wood, large tree), Yi (Yin Wood, flowers and grass)
- Fire: Bing (Yang Fire, the sun), Ding (Yin Fire, candlelight)
- Earth: Wu (Yang Earth, walls), Ji (Yin Earth, farmland)
- Metal: Geng (Yang Metal, steel), Xin (Yin Metal, jewelry)
- Water: Ren (Yang Water, rivers), Gui (Yin Water, rain and dew)
Memory of Twelve Earthly Branches:
The quickest method is through association with zodiac animals: Zi Rat, Chou Ox, Yin Tiger, Mao Rabbit, Chen Dragon, Si Snake, Wu Horse, Wei Goat, Shen Monkey, You Rooster, Xu Dog, Hai Pig.
How to Understand the Interactions of the Five Elements?
Five Elements Generating Cycle
Wood → Fire → Earth → Metal → Water → Wood
Memory Rhyme: "Wood burns to produce fire, ashes form earth, earth conceals metal, metal melts to water, water nourishes wood."
Five Elements Controlling Cycle
Wood → Earth → Water → Fire → Metal → Wood
Memory Rhyme: "Wood roots control earth, earth dams control water, water extinguishes fire, fire melts metal, metal axes control wood."
What Insights Do the Ten Gods Offer for Modern Life?
Core Rule: Use the day's stem as the reference point, examining the interactions of other Heavenly Stems with the Five Elements relative to oneself.
Simplified Memory Table:
- Those that generate me: Resource Star (mother, mentors, learning)
- Similar to me: Competitors (siblings, friends, peers)
