The Great Bell Chant
(May your heart be awakened by the Great
Bell Chant. And may all living things transcend the path of sorrow and
death.)
May the sound of this bell penetrate deep into the Cosmos...Even in the darkest spots, living beings are able to hear it clearly so that all suffering in them cease. Understanding comes to their heart and they transcend the path of sorrow and death. The universal Dharma door is already open. The sound of the rising tide is heard clearly. The miracle happens; a beautiful child appears in the heart of a lotus flower. One single drop of this compassionate water is enough to bring back the refreshing spring to our mountains. Listening to the bell, I feel the afflictions in me begin to dissolve. My mind calms, my body relaxes. A smile is born on my lips. Following the sound of the bell, my breath brings me back to the safe island of mindfulness. In the garden of my heart, the flowers of peace bloom beautifully.

Bazi DIY - Understanding the 4 Pillars of Destiny
Simple illustration on the 4 Pillars of Destinry
Basic principles that you have to understand before analysizing your Bazi Chart!
1) Leave me your date of birth with your birth time plus 2 best years so far as an anonymous source. I'll then generate the chart and post it on my blog for your viewing.
a) Heavenly Stem: Your career, wealth, status, achievements etc. that are visible and known to others. e.g. physical assets
b) Earthly Branch: The foundation of your wealth, career, relationships with family members including parents etc. that might not be visible or known to others.
2) Self Analysis: Identify your main element located on the heavenly stem of your day pillar. (refer to the red circle above). And determine whether your element belongs to the weak status or strong status - My software will auto determine your status but verification of good years is still required. Although, I'll rectify your actual element and its status but it'll be good for you to understand your day element. You can google on your day element to find out more (e.g. 甲木日柱旺）
3) Based on the chart I posted on my blog,
Red color element represents the element that you need to boost or reinforce your day element. Therefore, the red color elements or the 10-year elements are suppose to be auspicious for you theoretically.
Green color elements represents a mixture of auspicious and inauspisious elements. While the
Blue color elements represent the inauspicious elements. Please refer to the 10-year cycles chart below as reference.
4) The auspicious & inauspicious elements - Meanings and Definitions

5) Based on the above information, you should be able to perform simple analysis on your past years and the elements associated with it so to self-determine the auspicious and inauspicious years.
(note that te above information can only provide simple bazi analysis & not sufficient to go in depth)
6) Analyzing the auspicious luck cycle (10-year cycle)
Subject: Strong Yang Wood
Age: 44 - 53
Period: 甲辰
Analysis:
The wealth energy of the subject between 44-53 is rather auspicious as both Heavenly stem and Earthly branch are both 才. Hence, the strength of the element, 才, is reinforce due to the foundation or (有根). However, as indicated above, the wealth or income from 才 doesn't comes from your main career, job or business. The income generation comes from sidelines, partnership, stocks and bonds investment, assets investment, inheritance (if any), accidental wealth etc. resulting in surplus. If the subject is an employee and does not has much income coming from the sidelines, partnership or investments then the actual surplus might not be significant at all, and at most... an average year for the subject. But it wouldn't be a bad year.
Secondly, you probably have to check whether the original 4 pillars consist of 财/才. If it is present on the 4 pillar and you get to meet either one of the element on the 10-year cycle, it'll reinforce the original foundation and the enery will be stronger.
Thirdly, check the heavenly stem of the 4 pillars to find out whether there is a booster element, also an auspicious element. In the subject case, the boosters are either 伤 or 食. Do take note that each of the element has a Ying or Yang association. Hence, opposite element (伤-Yang + 才-Ying) or (食-Ying + 财-Yang) will generate a greater force and boost the auspicious energy further. While the impact for (食-Ying + 才Ying) or (伤-Yang + 财-Yang) are weaker but still auspicious.
Lastly, go down to the individual year and then eveluate based on the same principles. Do take the original 4 pillars and 10-year cycle into considerations. Hence, there are 4 Pillars + 10-Year Cycle Pillar (total of 5 pillars now).
7) How to determine a good 10-year cycle. Sample Case 101
Luck Cycle Analysis:
Subject: Male born in March 22, 1972
10-year Cycle: 2007 - 2016
As you can see from the above chart that instead of using 官 & 印, we adopt 财 instead,,, as both the elements 丁&未 have merged with other elements on the original four pillars of destiney to from 合财成化 & 半财成化 on the 10 year cycle. Hence, both Heavenly Stem and Earthly Branch are 财局, resulting in strong wealth energy.
In 2007, the 10-year cycle wealth energy is further boosted by the year element whereby 合财成化 on 2007 heavenly stem is reinforce by its root, 會财成化. Theoretically, the wealth energy is at its strongest in 2007.
So....how strong was the wealth generation? Did the subject becomes a millionaire? The answer is NO! In Bazi reading, you have to be logical and practical. No matter how strong the wealth energy was, if the subject was just an employee...then the income or wealth generation was limited or caped at a certain level. The only monetary return was bonus or at most, profit sharing with restriction. However, if the subject was running his own business or had other partnership businesses then it's a different story. The monetary return will definitely be stronger compare to an employee.
A) Employees - Middle Management staffs: Likely to be able to forecast the maximum return you can get from pay increment, bonus & profit sharing etc. if the above descrption in found within your chart. Be realistic on your analysis.
B) Senior Management: Bonus and profit sharing can varies among different MNCs. The paid out from MNCs is generally better then SMEs. Hence, the income generation will be better if the above description is found within your chart. But still, the monetary return might not be in millions unless you are board directors of many entities, collecting loyalty. Or you have other businesses and you are the majority shareholders.
C) Businessmen: Individuals running their own businesses are the most sensitive group to the above description above as it'll be their best time to capitalize on the positive wealth energy. Their monetary returns can varies from a decent return to millions of dollars. However, you will still be able to forecast the potential returns on your business. But there'll always be new and exciting business opportunities arising during this auspicious period. Hence, it's more difficult to predict the monetary gain.
D) The subject above is the Chief Operating Office of a foreign MNC in South-East Asia. He is a close friend of mine since childhood. In 2007, his monetary gain was only limited to bonus and profit sharing from his company. The monetary return from his main career is only at an average level. There was no other income from personal business or trade. Hence, when analyzing the wealth energy, please consider the potential return of his profession before drawing conclusion.
8) How to determine a bad 10-year cycle. Sample Case 102
Luck Cycle Analysis:
Subject: Former Procurement Director of MNC
Gender: Male
DOB: Jan. 18, 1964
10-year Cycle: 2007 - 2016 (Blue Color)
As you can see from the above highlighted period that both the Heavenly Stem and Earthly Branch form 合才成化 & 才杀食. Hence, both the pillars fall under the inauspicious wealth energy category. The subject was reassigned from a permanent role to a consultant role between 2007 to 2008. And the consultancy role was terminated in end 2008. Hence, the subject has remain unemploy for the past 4 years since 2009. The 10-year cycle was inauspicious for wealth and reinforced by the yearly cycle from 2009 - 2012. The income contribution of the subject was strictly from employment. There wasn't any other type of income from business or partnership. Even if the Earthly Branch (
比 ) is auspicious but, without other source of income....it doesn't help much. For the past 4-5 years, he has been on deficit without any other form of income. 2013 - 2014 might brings some reliefs but provided there are other source of monetary gain. He is currently attempting to generate some return from trade partnership. Would he be able to yield any return? We shall see......
9) How to determine a good 10-year cycle for Business. Sample Case 103
Luck Cycle Analysis:
Subject: Business Owner of a Fabricating Company in Singapore
Gender: Male
DOB: born on May 20, 1970
10-year Cycle: 2005 - 2014
Element: Weak Yang Mental
As you can see from the highlighted chart above, the 10-year cycle Heavenly Stem and Earthly Branch formed 合
劫成化 & 半
劫成化 at the fourth pillar dating 2005-2014. It is an auspicious period for monetary generation as the wealth energy is very strong. And given the fact that both
劫 & 比 are both presents on the original 4 pillars of Destiny, it is indeed auspicious.
The subject was able to secured funding from angel investors and started his business in 2005. The first 2 years were not easy as he was building up his portfolio and customers' base. Like many new setups, he was facing cash-flow issues & strong competitions. In 2007 & 2008, business slowly stabilized and sales volume increased. However, the returns were still below his expectation. Between 2009 -2011, his luck improved significantly....high volume based opportunities flooded in and he was working with developers on larger scale projects. As you can see from 2009-2012, it was 4 years of
劫 consecutively either on Heavenly stem, Earthly Branch or both. Sales demand was high but, the return was still below his expectation. This was due to the profit sharing arrangement that he had with with Angel investors. Most profit generated... flow out and back to the investors, leaving the company with cash flow shortage at times. Although his wealth generation was strong but, his return is still average.
In 2013, 合杀成化 on Heavenly Stem and 半
劫成化 on Earthly Branch. In the early part of 2013, sales demand suddenly increased 3-4 folds! It's the best year so far due to the sudden in-flood of big contracts. However, as he moves closer to 2014.....there might be a sudden occurance to his business that might cause serve impact to the future of the company based on my readings. Next year, Ziwei dou Shu reading indicates that the year star, 太阳化忌在午宫, turn negative. Although, the sun reaches its most auspicious palace at 午宫 and radiates the most energy in this palace...but once it turns negative, there is a high chance that it'll affect his career or his dad as the sun is the main star of the career palace in Ziwei Dou Shui and also represents the father. Bazi for 2014 is also not auspicious cause of 才and it is the last year of the 10-year cycle. Many of us consider this period as the transition year before moving into a new 10-year cycle. But I sincerely hope that he'll be able to overcome the future difficulties that he might face, if any.
