Does BaZi Conflict Really Affect Fortune? 3 Key Points You Need to Know

As a long-time analyst in BaZi (Four Pillars of Destiny) readings, I am often asked about the issue of "conflict." Many people get anxious upon hearing that their BaZi chart has conflicts, worried that it might affect their fortune. Today, I'd like to discuss this topic from a rational perspective.

What is Conflict in BaZi?

In BaZi calculations, conflict refers to a specific opposing relationship between the twelve Earthly Branches. Simply put, it is like an interaction effect created by two energies under specific combinations.

The six pairs of conflicts among the Earthly Branches include:

1. Zi-Wu Conflict
2. Chou-Wei Conflict
3. Yin-Shen Conflict
4. Mao-You Conflict
5. Chen-Xu Conflict
6. Si-Hai Conflict

These conflict relationships essentially reflect the interactions between the Five Elements (Wu Xing) and oppositions in directional energies. Remember, it is not a mystical curse but a manifestation of energy.

What Practical Impacts Can Conflict Bring?

From my analytical experience, conflicts mainly manifest as changes in three areas:

1. Change and Instability

Conflicts often imply change. This change could be:

• Adjustments in job positions
• Relocation of living environments
• Reorganization of interpersonal relationships
• Alterations in life rhythms

Modern Case: One of my clients experienced a conflict in the Day Pillar (Marriage Palace) during an Annual Fortune, coinciding with her career transition from a stable corporate job to freelancing. Although there was some initial discomfort, this "conflict" opened new career opportunities for her.

2. Conflict and Opposition

Conflicts may also result in:

• Tensions in relationships
• Obstacles at work
• Dilemmas in decision-making
• Inner contradictions

Modern Case: Another client, during a Mao-You conflict year, found himself in ideological conflicts with his business partner, ultimately leading to a project reorganization. Yet this "conflict" prompted him to reassess his business model, leading to a more suitable path for development.

3. Redistribution of Energy

The outcome of conflicts depends on the comparative strengths of the parties involved:

• The weaker may be dispersed, requiring adjustment and recovery
• The stronger may be stimulated, gaining new momentum
• The key lies in the balance of the entire chart

How to Rationally View and Manage Conflict?

Based on years of I Ching and Fortune Analysis, I believe dealing with conflict requires rational thinking:

1. Do Not Overreact with Fear

Conflict does not inherently indicate disaster; it is merely a form of energy change. Like weather changes affect our mood, they do not determine our lives.

2. Proactively Adapt to Changes

When encountering conflict years, consider:

1. Preparing mentally for possible changes
2. Maintaining flexibility and not clinging too rigidly to the status quo
3. Seeing "conflict" as a chance for transformation, not merely a threat

3. Enhance Subjective Initiative

How to Improve Wealth and Overall Fortune through the I Ching? The key:

• Understand your energy traits and leverage your strengths
• Focus on inner balance during conflict periods
• Face challenges with a positive mindset
• Utilize external resources (such as professional guidance) to aid decision-making

My Rational Suggestions

After years of practice in BaZi Fortune Reading, I believe:

1. Conflict is a dynamic expression of energy, not a definitive sentence of fate
2. Rational analysis is more valuable than blind fear
3. Personal effort and wise choices always surpass the constraints of a BaZi chart
4. Understanding Annual Fortune is to better plan life, not to passively wait

Remember, BaZi Calculations provide us not with a decree of destiny, but rather a reference guide for life. During conflict years, keeping a clear mind and a positive attitude can often turn challenges into opportunities, making changes catalysts for growth.

If you have questions about your BaZi, it is advisable to seek professional I Ching Fortune-Telling guidance, but more importantly, learn to interpret and utilize these ancient wisdoms with a rational perspective.
