Analysis of the Dinghai Hour on the Liugeng Days
Original Text
六庚日生时丁亥，官星失地自身衰；
不通月气难成福，若见魁罡却妙哉。
庚日丁亥时，庚以甲为财，壬为食，丁为官。亥上丁火无气，壬旺甲生，庚金失地，难任财食。若不通身旺月，不能成福；通月气、有阴土扶身者，发财。官星有助，稍贵。庚戌，庚辰此二日魁罡，不宜财官生旺；时逢丁亥，反贵。
庚子日丁亥时，贵。申子辰月，伤官、劳碌。卯月、金火运、五六品贵。
庚寅日丁亥时，平，初贫，中秀，末主富旺。辰戌年月，贵显。申酉亥卯已午年月，乾透乙已者，大贵。
庚辰日丁亥时，纯未，显达。已午，西北运，风宪、金紫。亥卯、金紫，有权。申月，建禄，最吉。
庚午日丁亥时，贵。辰戌丑未月，土能生金，荣显。申亥酉月，行木火运，极品。
庚申日丁亥时，秋生，南运，贵显；北运，平常。
庚戌日丁亥时，辰已午月，官煞虽混，亦主武贵。丑月，西运，郎官。辰月，西北运，方面。
丁亥时逢庚日排，重重喜色照朱扉；桃红烂漫日时绽，一阵春风自显威。庚日时逢丁亥，柱中暗合三奇。要知子旺并三妻，父母雁行可美。癸已戊辛不遇，文章博览多知。无冲无破贵人提，终末亨通吉利。
Interpretation
On the day when the Heavenly Stem is the sixth Geng and the time is Dinghai, the official star loses its proper position and one's own fortune declines.
Without understanding the monthly qi, it's hard to achieve good fortune. If the Kui and Gang stars are seen, it's truly wonderful.
On a Geng day and Ding - Hai hour, for Geng, Jia represents wealth, Ren represents food, and Ding represents an official position. On Hai, the Ding fire has no energy, Ren is prosperous and Jia is born, while Geng metal loses its proper position and has difficulty in taking on wealth and food. If it is not in a month when the body (Geng) is prosperous, it cannot bring good fortune. If it is in a month with the appropriate qi and there is Yin earth to support the body, one can make a fortune. If the official star has support, one can be a little noble. For Geng - Xu and Geng - Chen, these two days are Kui - Gang days, and it is not suitable for wealth and official positions to be prosperous. When the hour is Ding - Hai, it can instead lead to nobility.
If one is born at the Dinghai time on the Gengzi day, they will be noble. If born in the Shen, Zi, or Chen months, they will have the influence of the "Shangguan" and lead a toilsome life. If born in the Mao month and experience the Jin and Huo fortune periods, they can reach the rank of the fifth or sixth grade of nobility.
On the day of Gengyin and at the hour of Dinghai, it is an average situation. One will be poor at the beginning, show talent in the middle, and become wealthy and prosperous in the end. If the year and month are Chen or Xu, one will be noble and prominent. If the year and month are Shen, You, Hai, Mao, Ji, or Wu, and there is Yi and Ji showing on the Heavenly Stems, one will be extremely noble.
On the day of Gengchen and at the hour of Dinghai, if the earthly branches are all Wei, one will achieve prominence and success. If there are Si and Wu, and one has a fortune in the northwest direction, one can become an official in charge of supervision and gain high - ranking titles. If there are Hai and Mao, one can gain high - ranking titles and hold power. In the month of Shen, with the establishment of the prosperous Qi (as in the theory of Bazi), it is the most auspicious situation.
On the day of Gengwu and at the hour of Dinghai, one will be noble. In the months corresponding to Chen, Xu, Chou, and Wei, the earth can generate metal, leading to honor and prominence. In the months of Shen, Hai, and You, when one experiences the fortune of the wood and fire elements, one can reach the highest rank.
On the day of Gengshen and at the hour of Dinghai, if one is born in autumn and has a southern fortune, they will achieve noble status and prominence; if they have a northern fortune, they will have an ordinary life.
On the Gengxu day and at the Dinghai hour, if it is in the Chen, Si, or Wu months, although the official and evil stars are mixed, it still indicates martial nobility. In the Chou month and with the westward fortune, one can become a court official. In the Chen month and with the fortune towards the northwest, one can hold a high - ranking regional position.
When the Dinghai hour falls on a Geng day, numerous joys shine upon the red doors; The peach blossoms are in full bloom at this time, and a gust of spring wind shows its might. When the Geng day meets the Dinghai hour, there are three hidden combinations in the Bazi. If you want to know about having many sons and three wives, the relationship among parents and siblings is quite good. If there is no encounter with Gui, Yi, Wu, and Xin, one is well - read and knowledgeable. Without conflicts or breaks and with the support of noble people, one will enjoy prosperity and good fortune in the end.
