Analysis of the Wuxu Hour on the Six Bing Days
Original Text
六丙日生时戊戌，火局之中遇食神；月气火通为福寿，不通逢吉亦常人。
丙日戊戌时，寿永，名利不失。寅亥卯未印及申酉戌已年月生，贵。
丙寅日戊戌时，庙堂食神，丙以戊为食神寿星，戌上丙火入库，戊土专位，若通火气月及东南运，福厚有寿；不通，平常。
丙子日戊戌时，寿永，名利不失。家亥卯未印及申酉戌已年胜，贵。
丙子日戊戌时，夏月，福寿双全。春，木克土，食神被枭。寅月，丙戊俱长生，最吉。有申庚制甲，大贵。秋冬火衰贫下。巳申亥年月，风宪极品。
丙辰日戊戌时，午月，丙火有气，土厚地方，五六品贵。亥月，金火运，风宪。
丙午日戊戌时，羊刃食神健旺，名利骤发，亥未辰戌年月，西方运，风宪。
丙申日戊戌时，亥月，东方运，贵。寅午身旺，乾透财，吉。丑辰刑冲戌库，发于晚年。
丙戌日戊戌时贫，若通寅巳午戌火局，福寿双全，大贵。见财亦吉。时上食神局，楼台店舍中；茶房饼酒肆，几度立家风。
丙日戌时财库开，少年未遇且沈埋；运通早晚通官爵，设若无官也发财。丙日时逢戊戌，就中仓库兼全。重重福禄自天然，富贵妻贤子羡。君子文章早立，常人财物绵延。天孤父母早淹连，辰戌钥匙开显。
Interpretation
When a person is born on a day of the sixth Bing (in the sexagenary cycle) at the Wuxu hour, they encounter the "Food God" in the fire trigram. If the qi of the month is in harmony with fire, it brings blessings and longevity. If not, even with good omens, they are just ordinary people.
If one is born in the Wuxu period on a Bing day, they will have a long life and not lose fame and fortune. Those born in the months and years related to the Earthly Branches Yin, Hai, Mao, and Wei which represent the Seal element, or in the months and years of Shen, You, Xu, and Si, will achieve nobility.
On the Wuxu hour of the Bingyin day, it represents the "Courtly Eater of God". Bing takes Wu as the Eater of God and the Star of Longevity. On Xu, the Bing fire enters the storage, and Wu earth occupies its proper position. If there is a connection with the fire - qi month and the movement towards the southeast, one will enjoy great fortune and a long life; if not, one will have an ordinary life.
On the Bingzi day and Wuxu hour, one will have a long life and retain both fame and fortune. Having family members born in the years of the Pig, Rabbit, or Goat as well as those born in the years of the Monkey, Rooster, Dog, or Snake is auspicious, and it indicates nobility.
On the Bingzi day and Wuxu hour, in summer, one will enjoy both good fortune and longevity. In spring, wood overcomes earth, and the Gourmet God is counteracted by the Owl. In the Yin month, both Bing and Wu are in their prosperous stages, which is the most auspicious. If there are Shen and Geng to control Jia, one will achieve great nobility. In autumn and winter, when fire is weak, one will be poor. If the year and month are Si, Shen, or Hai, one will reach the highest position in the judicial system.
On the Bingchen day and Wuxu hour, if it is the Wuyue month, the Bing fire has qi. In places with thick earth, one can reach the fifth or sixth rank of nobility. If it is the Haiyue month and during the period of the metal and fire fortune, one can hold a position in the disciplinary inspection system.
On the day of Bingwu and at the hour of Wuxu, the Yangren and the Gourmet God are strong and prosperous, bringing sudden fame and fortune. If one is born in the years and months of Hai, Wei, Chen, or Xu and travels in the western direction, they will hold a high - ranking official position.
On the Bing Shen day and Wu Xu time, in the Hai month, with the fortune in the east, one will be noble. If one is born in the Yin, Wu, or Maosheng years and has a strong body, and there is wealth revealed in the Heavenly Stems, it is auspicious. If there is a conflict between Chou and Chen with the Xu storehouse, one will achieve success in old age.
If one is born in the Wuxu hour on the Bingxu day, they will be poor. However, if the fire trigram of Yin, Si, Wu, and Xu is connected, they will enjoy both longevity and good fortune and achieve great nobility. It is also auspicious to see wealth. When there is a prosperous situation of the earthly branch being the granary of the heavenly stem at the hour pillar, one may be engaged in businesses related to buildings, inns, teahouses, bakeries, and wine shops, and establish a family reputation several times.
On a Bing day at the Xushi hour, the treasury of wealth opens. In youth, one has not yet met with good fortune and lies buried in obscurity. When luck turns, sooner or later one will attain official rank. Even if there is no official position, one will still make a fortune. When a Bing day coincides with the Wuxu hour, there is both a warehouse and completeness. Abundant blessings and good fortune come naturally. One will be wealthy, with a virtuous wife and enviable children. A gentleman will establish his literary reputation early, and an ordinary person will have a continuous flow of wealth. One will be separated from one's parents early due to misfortune. The keys of Chen and Xu will unlock the obvious.
