1. How to count five elements in eight characters
The Eight Character and Five Elements is a method of fortune telling in traditional culture and is also widely used in numerology and feng shui. The eight elements, i.e. the heavenly stems and earthly branches on the four pillars of the year, month, day and hour, are used to project an individual's destiny and character traits. The Five Elements, i.e. Jin, Mu, Shui, Huo and Tu, represent the five basic elements of nature and are interrelated with the Heavenly Stems and Earthly Branches of the Eight Characters and are used to analyze the attributes of an individual's destiny. The algorithm of the Five Elements of the Eight Characters can be divided into three main steps: determining the Heavenly Stems and Earthly Branches of the Eight Characters, corresponding to the Five Elements based on their interrelationships, and interpreting the effects of the Five Elements attributes on the individual.
Determining the Heavenly Stems and Earthly Branches of the Eight Characters is the first step in the Five Elements Algorithm for the Eight Characters. The Heavenly Stems and Earthly Branches of the Eight Characters are determined based on the Heavenly Stems and Earthly Branches of the year, month, day, and hour of birth. There are ten Heavenly Stems: A, B, C, D, E, F, G, C, N, N, K. There are twelve Earthly Branches: Zi, U, C, D, C, S, W, W, S, Y, H, X, H. The combination of these Heavenly Stems and Earthly Branches is the first step in the Bazi Five Elements Algorithm. By combining these heavenly stems and earthly branches, you can get a person's eight characters.
Secondly, the correspondence is based on the relationship between the five elements. The five elements are mutually reinforcing and supportive, while the five elements are mutually restraining and destructive. The order of the five elements is wood begets fire, fire begets earth, earth begets gold, gold begets water, and water begets wood. And the relationship between the five elements of mutual restraint is that Jin grasps Wood, Wood grasps Earth, Earth grasps Water, Water grasps Fire, and Fire grasps Gold. According to the relationship between the Heavenly Stems and Earthly Branches and the Five Elements in the Eight Characters, we can calculate the Five Elements attributes of an individual's Eight Characters.
Interpreting the effects on the individual based on the five elements. According to the Five Elements and their interactions, there are certain relationships between the Five Elements in each individual's Eight Characteristics. These relationships will have an impact on an individual's personality, fate and fortune. For example, if a person has a lot of Fire in his or her Eight Character Elements, then he or she may possess a passionate, energetic and impulsive personality; if a person has a lot of Earth in his or her Eight Character Elements, then he or she may possess a down-to-earth, stable and family-oriented personality. By interpreting the five elements of the eight characters, it can help people better understand their character traits and the direction of their destiny.
It is important to note that Bazi Five Elements fortune telling can only be used as a reference and cannot fully determine a person's destiny. It is only an algorithm of fortune telling and cannot replace personal efforts and choices. People should make reasonable use of the theory of Eight Character and Five Elements to adjust and develop themselves according to their actual situation.
The Eight Character Five Elements algorithm is an important method of fortune telling in traditional culture. By determining the Heavenly Stems and Earthly Branches of the Eight Characters, corresponding to the Five Elements according to their phasing relationships, and interpreting the effects of the Five Elements attributes on an individual, it can help people understand their own character traits and the direction of their destiny. However, it should be noted that the fortune-telling of the eight characters and five elements is only a reference and cannot completely determine the fate of an individual. Everyone should make reasonable use of the theory of the eight characters and five elements according to their own actual situation, and make choices and efforts that suit them.
