Five Elements and Eight Characters is a kind of fortune-telling art in Chinese traditional culture, which analyzes the eight characters of a person's birth time, and deduces a person's character traits, the direction of destiny, and the state of health, etc., on the basis of the theory of the interplay of the five elements. Below I will introduce the algorithm and how to determine the direction of destiny through the eight characters of the five elements.
The algorithm of Five Elements and Eight Character can be divided into two steps: Eight Character Platooning and Eight Character Analysis. The eight-character ranking is based on the lunar calendar to determine the year of birth, month, day, time corresponding to the Heavenly Stems and Earthly Branches, and then according to the theory of the corresponding relationship between the Heavenly Stems and Earthly Branches and the Yin-Yang Five Elements to derive a person's eight characters. The analysis of the eight characters is to analyze the relationship between these eight characters to speculate a person's fate.
In the Five Elements Eight Characters, the Year Pillar represents a person's foundation and family background, the Month Pillar represents a person's external conditions and environment, the Day Pillar represents a person's personality traits and behaviors, and the Hour Pillar represents a person's destiny and fortune. By analyzing these four pillars, we can understand a person's personality traits, destiny direction and health condition and other information.
The five elements in the Five Elements Eight Characteristics are Wood, Fire, Earth, Gold and Water, which represent five different forces and characteristics. Phang Sheng refers to the mutually reinforcing relationship between the five elements, such as wood begets fire, fire begets earth, earth begets gold, gold begets water, and water begets wood. Phasing refers to the mutual constraints between the five elements, for example, wood grasps earth, fire grasps gold, earth grasps water, gold grasps wood, and water grasps fire. Through the phasing relationship of the five elements, we can deduce the developmental trends and the challenges a person may face in different years, months, days and hours.
So how can we determine the direction of destiny through the five elements and eight characters? We can determine a person's career development and wealth status by analyzing the relationship between the eight characters. For example, if a person has a lot of fire in the eight characters, it means that he may have a certain advantage in entrepreneurship; if he has a lot of gold, it may mean that he will have a better chance in wealth accumulation. We can determine the challenges and pressures a person may face by analyzing the relationship between the five elements in the eight characters. For example, if a person has more Earth but less Jin in the eight characters, it may mean that he may face some challenges in his family and relationships. We can also determine a person's health and lifestyle habits by analyzing the balanced and unbalanced relationships between the five elements in the eight characters. For example, if a person has a lot of water in the eight characters but less of the other four elements, it may mean that he needs to pay special attention to water-related health issues.
Five Elements Eight Characters, as a fortune telling technique in traditional Chinese culture, can help us understand information about a person's personality traits, fate direction and health condition. By analyzing the relationship between the eight characters, we can speculate on a person's career development, wealth, challenges, and health. : The Five Elements and Eight Characters is only a reference and we cannot fully rely on it to judge a person's destiny because a person's destiny is affected by a number of factors, of which the Five Elements and Eight Characters is only one of them. What is important is that we should believe in our own efforts and struggles to realize our dreams and goals through unremitting efforts.
