Analysis of the Gengwu Hour on the Six Ji Days
Original Text
六己日生时遇午，禄归时地主昌荣；
柱中怕有官星见，若是伏晶另一评。
己日庚午时，日禄归时。已见庚为伤官，乙为正鬼；午上有明庚合乙，伤官合煞，主人独立有成。若年月无乙而伤官临于败地，柱有甲、丙二字，伏晶格，不损格局无冲破，主大贵。
己丑日庚午时，寅月生，贵；夏凶；秋暴；冬，财旺子少。
己卯日庚午时，已禄居午，年月有甲丙及寅午者，大贵。卯月，煞旺庚合，权贵。
己巳日庚午时，贵。寅午戌月，金神入火乡，作印绶论，贵显，辰戌丑未年月，侯伯。若逢合煞运，必不善终。酉月、东南运，贵。
己未日庚午时，背禄伤官，六亲刑克；无破，晚年发旺。未戌年月，贵。
己亥日庚午时，午戌年月，财官禄印，大贵。寅年午月，巨富。卯月，西运。贵。己逢庚午时归禄，无破无冲能发福；柱中丙申若相逢，德润身兮富润屋。己日时逢庚午，名为背禄伤官。冲刑破害祸多端，骨肉六亲冰炭。甲丙柱中如遇，伏晶之格清闲。月中丹桂任高攀，富贵不须推算。
Interpretation
For those born on the six days with the Heavenly Stem "Ji" and the hour being "Wu", the "lu" (good fortune and prosperity) is concentrated at the hour, which indicates prosperity and glory in the main.
In the pillars, one should be wary of the appearance of the official star. If it is in a hidden state, it calls for a different assessment.
If the day is Ji and the hour is Gengwu, it means the day's good fortune (lu) returns to the hour. When Ji meets Geng, it forms a condition of "hurting officials" (shangguan), and when it meets Yi, it forms a "rightful ghost" (zhenggui). On Wu, there is an obvious Geng that combines with Yi. When the "hurting official" combines with the "evil star" (sha), it indicates that the person can achieve success independently. If there is no Yi in the year and month columns and the "hurting official" is in a declining position, and there are the characters Jia and Bing in the pillar, it forms a "hidden crystal pattern" (fulingge). If the pattern is not damaged and there are no break - throughs, it indicates great nobility.
If a person is born at Gengwu hour on Jichou day in the first lunar month, they will have a noble status; if born in summer, they will face misfortune; if born in autumn, they will have a violent life; if born in winter, they will be wealthy but have few children.
On the day of Jǐmǎo and at the hour of Gēngwǔ, the lucky star of Jǐ resides in Wǔ. If there are Jiǎ and Bǐng in the year and month columns, as well as Yín and Wǔ, it indicates great nobility. In the month of Mǎo, the malevolent star is strong and Gēng forms a combination, which means power and high status.
On the day of Jisi and at the hour of Gengwu, one will be noble. In the months of Yin, Wu, and Xu, when the Golden Deity enters the Fire Region and is regarded as the Seal Ribbon, one will be noble and prominent. If the year and month belong to Chen, Xu, Chou, or Wei, one can be a marquis or earl. If one encounters a fortune that combines with the inauspicious influence, one will surely meet an unhappy end. In the month of You and with the fortune in the southeast, one will be noble.
On the day of Jǐwèi and at the hour of Gēngwǔ, one has the situation of "losing the official salary and having the damaging officer", which leads to conflicts and misfortunes among relatives. If there are no negative disruptions, one will prosper in old age. If one is born in the months related to Wèi and Xū, one will be of noble status.
On the day of Jihai and at the time of Gengwu, if the year and month are Wuxu, with wealth, official rank, emolument, and seal, one will achieve great nobility. If the year is Yin and the month is Wu, one will amass great wealth. In the month of Mao, with a westward fortune, one will be noble. When Ji meets Gengwu at the hour, it is the return of emolument. Without breakage or conflict, one can gain good fortune. If Bing and Shen in the horoscope are encountered, virtue will adorn the person and wealth will adorn the house. When Ji meets Gengwu at the hour, it is called the back - emolument and hurting - official pattern. With clashes, punishments, breakages, and harms, there will be many disasters, and relations with relatives will be as cold as ice and charcoal. If Jia and Bing are encountered in the horoscope, it is the pattern of hiding the essence, leading to a leisurely life. One can reach for the laurel in the moon, and there is no need to calculate for wealth and nobility.
