Analysis of the Bichou Hour on the Liujia Days
Original Text
六甲日生时乙丑，劫财羊刃不宜有；
柱中逢火带辛金，制伏和平贵亦久。
甲日乙丑时，辛金为官，己土为财，丑中暗己，被明乙劫夺，乙丑金神，若年日时合成火局，得制伏，主德性纯和而贵；无火凶狠；如合水局凶恶损家。
甲子日乙丑时，连珠得合妻贤子贵。春月身旺，财帛破散。夏月甲衰，金神有制，贵。秋生，近侍之贵。丑月最吉，亥、子多凶。
甲寅日乙丑时，春贫，秋贵，冬富，夏火制金神，吉。
甲辰日乙丑时，主富厚有财，通火气年月，贵。
甲午日乙丑时，金神入火局，身弱贫夭。寅戌会火，是一木叠逢火位，不吉。若单寅单戌，或申酉亥月，四五品贵。
甲申日乙丑时，带疾平常。子月生，南方运，贵。秋生化煞，天乾透印绶，尤贵。
甲戌日乙丑时，田连阡陌，贯朽粟陈，但未免先刑。寅年月，父子俱显。子月，西方运，金紫。
劫财羊刃忌时垣，宫内财官锁闭门；辰未相逢为大吉，如无随意度晨昏。甲日时逢乙丑，库中金玉收藏。贵人天乙劫财伤，皎月云遮光荡。火局南方运贵，金神制伏相当。木枯水盛且平常，背祖离乡晚旺。
Interpretation
For those born on the six Jia days at the time of Yi Chou, it's not advisable to have the robbery wealth and the yang blade.
If there is fire and Xin Metal in the pillar, when the fire restrains the metal moderately, one can enjoy long - lasting nobility.
On the day of Jia with the hour of Yichou, Xin metal serves as the official, and Ji earth is the wealth. There is hidden Ji earth in Chou, which is seized by the obvious Yi. Yichou is the divine metal. If the year, day, and hour combine to form a fire trigram, and it is controlled, it indicates that the person has a pure and harmonious virtue and will be noble. Without fire, the person will be fierce. If it combines to form a water trigram, it will be evil and bring harm to the family.
On the day of Jiazǐ and at the time of Yichǒu, with the successive combination of celestial stems and earthly branches, one will have a virtuous wife and a noble son. In spring, when the energy of the wood (represented by Jia) is strong, one's wealth will be scattered. In summer, when the energy of Jia weakens and the "Golden Deity" is under control, one will achieve nobility. Born in autumn, one will attain the nobility of being a close attendant to the ruler. Being born in the month of Chǒu is the most auspicious, while being born in the months of Hài and Zǐ brings many misfortunes.
On the day of Jiayin and at the time of Yichou, one will be poor in spring, noble in autumn, wealthy in winter. In summer, the fire restrains the Metal Deity, which is auspicious.
On the day of Jiachen and at the time of Yichou, it indicates that one will be wealthy and have abundant property. If the year and month are associated with the fire element, one will be noble.
On the day of Jiawu and at the time of Yichou, the Metal God enters the Fire Bureau. If one's body is weak, they will be poor and die young. When Yin and Xu combine to form the Fire trigram, it means one piece of wood is repeatedly placed in the Fire position, which is inauspicious. If there is only Yin or only Xu, or if it is in the months of Shen, You, or Hai, one can reach the rank of fourth or fifth grade and be noble.
If a person is born at the time of Yichou on the day of Jiashen, they may have some health problems and an ordinary life. If born in the month of Ziyue and has a fortune in the southern direction, they will be noble. If born in autumn when the inauspicious qi is transformed, and the Seal Character is revealed in the Heavenly Stems, they will be even more noble.
On the day of Jiaxu and at the time of Yichou, one will own vast tracts of land and have abundant wealth with money in the treasury so old that the strings rot and grain in the granaries piled up to rot. However, one will inevitably suffer some setbacks at first. If one is born in the year and month with the earthly branch of Yin, both the father and the son will gain prominence. If one is born in the month with the earthly branch of Zi and has a fortune in the Western direction, one will attain high - ranking official positions.
It is inauspicious to have the "Rob Wealth" and "Yang Blade" in the hour position. When the wealth and official stars are locked in the palace, it seems like the doors are shut. Meeting the Earthly Branches Chen and Wei is extremely auspicious. Without such favorable conditions, one just drifts through days and nights casually. For those born on a Jia day and in a Yi Chou hour, it's like treasures are stored in the treasury. There are noble stars like Tianyi, yet the "Rob Wealth" brings harm, just like the bright moon being obscured by clouds. When there is a Fire trigram in the southern direction in the fortune - cycle, it indicates noble status. When the "Metal Deity" is properly controlled, it's also quite suitable. If the Wood element is withered and the Water element is overly abundant, the situation is just ordinary. One may leave the ancestral home and achieve prosperity in later years.
