A Comprehensive Discussion on the Positive and Partial Wealth

Original Text

《精纪》有生成财,如甲乙见戊己土为财,申子辰上坐生旺库,戊申、戊辰、戊子支乾成合是也。凡命入贵格,除贵外,须主大富,仍多历钱谷之任;若不入贵格,又无福神助,亦是富豪百姓。若自生自旺,甲人见戊午、己亥之例,主富。馀仿此。有生合财,如甲人见戊癸,己人见癸戊,庚人见甲己等类,主成立富贵。有子母财,如木命人见火月、土日时之类,主平生多见喜事。有类财煞,寅午戌人见乙庚,巳酉丑人见丁壬,申子辰人见戊癸,亥卯未人见甲号,一名幽微煞,主名利并行。有财会煞,寅午戌人见辛丑,巳酉丑人见乙未,申子辰人见丙戌,亥卯未人见戊辰,此妻财聚会之神,遇者主富足及有美妻横财,却防妻人毒药害命。有名位财,乃食神中见库,如戊子火人见庚戌,戊食庚,火库在戌,克金为财,逢此者一生受禄。有长生财,如甲用戊己为财见戊申,癸用丙丁为财见丙寅之例,此类多得外财。又曰:术者多以甲见戊、乙见己类为财,不知甲己见丙辛、丙辛见戊癸等类为真财,生居有气旺相之位,主富盛。又纳音本干自见真五行,如乙亥人月日时中见庚,乙亥纳音火,乙庚真金,干头自是财也,此名天财,主富足优逸。若纳音反制克干头,如丁卯火却能制乙庚金,此名鬼财,主一生得世财,或为豪猾胥吏起家。戊寅、戊申得丙辛,乙酉、乙卯得戊癸,准此。更带辰戌丑未,主为艺术,大获世财。

Interpretation

In "Jing Ji", there is the concept of "generated wealth". For example, when Jia and Yi encounter Wu and Ji (representing earth in the Five - Elements theory), it is considered wealth. When Shen, Zi, and Chen are in the positions of birth, prosperity, and storage, such as Wushen, Wuchen, and Wuzhi where the branches and stems form combinations. For those whose birth charts fall into the noble category, besides the nobility, they must be extremely wealthy and often hold positions related to finance. If they do not fall into the noble category and have no auspicious deities to assist, they can still be wealthy commoners. If one is in a state of self - birth and self - prosperity, like a person with Jia as the main element encountering Wuwu and Jihai, it indicates wealth. The rest can be inferred by analogy. There is "generated and combined wealth". For example, when a person with Jia as the main element encounters Wu and Gui, a person with Ji encounters Gui and Wu, and a person with Geng encounters Jia and Ji, etc., it indicates the establishment of wealth and honor. There is "mother - child wealth". For example, for a person with a wood - based life, encountering a fire - month and an earth - day and hour, etc., it indicates that they will encounter many happy events in their life. There is "similar wealth and evil star". For those born in the years of Yin, Wu, and Xu encountering Yi and Geng; those born in the years of Si, You, and Chou encountering Ding and Ren; those born in the years of Shen, Zi, and Chen encountering Wu and Gui; and those born in the years of Hai, Mao, and Wei encountering Jia. This is also called the "mysterious evil star", which indicates that both fame and wealth will come. There is "wealth meeting evil star". For those born in the years of Yin, Wu, and Xu encountering Xin Chou; those born in the years of Si, You, and Chou encountering Yi Wei; those born in the years of Shen, Zi, and Chen encountering Bing Xu; and those born in the years of Hai, Mao, and Wei encountering Wu Chen. This is the deity of the gathering of wife and wealth. Those who encounter it will be wealthy and have a beautiful wife and unexpected wealth, but they should beware of being poisoned by their wives. There is "fame and position wealth", which is when the treasury is found in the "eating god" (a term in fortune - telling). For example, for a person with Wuzi (representing fire) encountering Gengxu. Wu eats Geng, and the fire treasury is in Xu. The metal (represented by Geng) is overcome by fire, which is considered wealth. Those who encounter this will receive official salaries throughout their lives. There is "long - life wealth". For example, when Jia uses Wu and Ji as wealth and encounters Wushen; when Gui uses Bing and Ding as wealth and encounters Bingyin. People of this kind often get external wealth. It is also said that many fortune - tellers consider Jia encountering Wu and Yi encountering Ji as wealth, but they don't know that Jia and Yi encountering Bing and Xin, and Bing and Xin encountering Wu and Gui, etc., are the real wealth. When they are in the prosperous and energetic positions, it indicates great wealth. Moreover, when the original stem of the "na - yin" (a way of classifying the Five - Elements in traditional Chinese culture) meets the true Five - Elements. For example, for a person born in the year of Yihai, if they encounter Geng in the month, day, or hour. The na - yin of Yihai is fire, and Yi and Geng represent true metal. The stem itself represents wealth. This is called "heavenly wealth", which indicates wealth and a comfortable life. If the na - yin restricts and overcomes the stem, such as Dingmao fire being able to restrict Yi and Geng metal, this is called "ghost wealth", which indicates that one will obtain worldly wealth in their life, or start a business as a shrewd and cunning official clerk. For those born in the years of Wuyin and Wushen encountering Bing and Xin, and those born in the years of Yiyou and Yimao encountering Wu and Gui, the same principle applies. If they are also associated with Chen, Xu, Chou, and Wei, it indicates that they will be engaged in arts and obtain a large amount of worldly wealth.
