1. What is a proper official in the eight characters
八字, an *ancient* form of numerology, is mainly used to project a person's fate and character through the year, month, day and hour of birth. There is an important concept of "Zheng Guan" in the 八字, which plays an important role in fortune telling. Zheng Guan plays an important role in fortune telling, and is known as the senior leader of the fortune, representing power and status in life. So, what is a Zheng Guan in Bazi? And what role does it play?
The Zheng Guan in Bazi simply refers to the earthly branch that corresponds to the heavenly stem of the yearly column. In the eight characters, there are ten stems and twelve branches, and the heavenly stems are A, B, C, D, E, F, G, C, N, N, K, and the earthly branches are Zi, U, C, D, C, S, W, W, S, Y, X, H, H, Hai. There is a certain pattern in determining the proper official, i.e., the combination of heavenly stems and earthly branches, such as A Zi, B Chou, C Yin, Ding Mao ...... and so on. Through the eight-character ranking, we can determine a person's proper official.
The Zheng Guan plays a crucial role in a person's destiny. It represents power, status, and career. The Earth's branch where the Zheng Guan is located reveals a person's position and achievements in life. For example, if the Zheng Guan in a person's Bazi is located in the Zi position (e.g. A Zi, B Chou, etc.) in the Natal Chart, then this person tends to have a certain degree of authority and influence, which makes him/her very suitable for jobs such as management and leadership. Whereas if the Zheng Guan is located in the Mao position (e.g. C Yin, Ding Mao, etc.), it means that the person develops his/her career more in life and may have a creative style of leadership. The position of the Zheng Guan, interacting with other factors in the natal chart, can have a profound effect on a person's character and destiny.
In addition to marking a person's status and official position, the Zheng Guan also affects a person's marital status. In traditional numerology, the Zheng Guan is regarded as the spouse representative, and the Earthly Branches where it is located can have a direct impact on one's marriage. If the Zheng Guan is located in the Yin position in the natal chart (e.g. C Yin, Ding Mao, etc.), then the person's married life may be gentle and smooth, while the Zheng Guan is located in the Shen position in the natal chart (e.g. Geng Shen, Xin You, etc.), which means that the person may have certain challenges and conflicts in the marriage. This is a test for those who seek harmony and needs to be faced and resolved positively.
The role of Zheng Guan in the Bazi is much more than that. It often interacts with other factors as well, such as the partial official and the lord god, to have a comprehensive impact on a person's destiny. The study of Bazi requires a comprehensive approach, looking not only at the position of the Zheng Guan in the fate, but also at the combination of other stems and branches, and the phases of the five elements, in order to come up with a relatively accurate deduction.
However, it is important to note that the Eight Character Numerology is only a reference, and destiny is something we need to grasp on our own. Regardless of the position of the Zhengguan in one's eight characters, we must understand that fate is in our own hands. Only through continuous learning and efforts to improve ourselves can we achieve better achievements and happiness on the road of life.
Overall, in the Bazi, Zheng Guan represents power, status and career, and the interplay between the Earthly Branches where it is located and other factors can have a profound impact on one's destiny. As a discipline of numerology, Bazi study helps us to understand our own character and destiny, but we should not completely rely on it to determine our own life, and more importantly, we need to shape our own destiny through our own efforts.
The Zheng Guan in the horoscope is just an important concept in numerology, it is not the only factor that determines fate. We cannot use it to simply categorize and judge people. Destiny is the result of many factors. We have to consider all factors together, define our goals and realize them through our own efforts. Only by positively facing and adapting to it can we achieve success and happiness later in life.
