Original Text
六丁日生时辛丑，库中财谷多陈朽；身无依倚不为凶，有托妻贤而富厚。
丁日辛丑时，丑为财库，辛为妻财，已为食神，丑旺金局，暗己得位，丁火无气，若失天时无倚托者，就妻而发；有倚托救助者，财食丰足。
丁丑日辛丑时，申酉月，财格，财旺生官，贵。午月，伤财身旺，主官禄。纯子寅，武贵三品。水月，艰辛劳苦。辰月贵戚。
丁卯日辛丑时，辰巳未年月，富贵，妻子迟。寅卯印助，戌库身旺，刑。丑丁，得倚托，大贵。
丁巳日辛丑时，因阴人致贵。巳酉丑申年月，财旺生官，富贵。卯月平常，行此运亦贵。丑月，西南运，大贵。
丁未日辛丑时，时日并冲，忧伤妻子。酉月，通水气，吉。岁运同。
丁酉日辛丑时，寅卯巳午，身旺有托，主文名高贵，宠遇非常。申酉戌，财旺从之，最吉。亥子，官旺亦吉。
丁亥日辛丑时，春印绶，吉，秋生，有火气亦吉，夏太旺，凶。冬官煞旺，吉。未戌月，冲开丑库，富。
辛丑遇丁为宝库，柱无匙钥难言富；刑冲运至遇高人，发迹他乡名誉著。丁日时逢辛丑，偏财库喜刑冲。若还不显有虚名，妻子宜尔相庆。父母雁行难睦，家门换改重新。发财发福见中兴，必是荣华之命。
Interpretation
Those born on the sixth - Ding day at the time of Xin - Chou have a lot of old and stored wealth and grains in the warehouse. If they have no support, it is not necessarily a bad thing. If they have support, they will have a virtuous wife and be wealthy.
On the Ding day and Xin Chou hour, Chou is the treasury of wealth, Xin represents the wife and wealth, and Ji is the God of Cookery. When Chou strengthens the metal - dominated situation, Ji is in a hidden and proper position, while the Ding fire loses its vitality. If one lacks favorable timing and has no support, one will achieve success through one's wife; if one has support and assistance, one will enjoy abundant wealth and food.
On the day of Ding Chou and at the hour of Xin Chou, if it is the month of Shen or You, it belongs to the pattern of wealth. With strong wealth generating the official, one will be noble. In the month of Wu, with the damage to wealth and strong body, it indicates official salary. If there are only Zi and Yin in the eight - character, one can reach the third - rank military nobility. In the water month, one will endure hardships. In the month of Chen, one can be related to the nobility.
On the day of Dingmao and at the hour of Xinchou, if the year and month are Chen, Si, or Wei, one will be wealthy and honored, but will get married and have children late. If there is the support of Yin and Mao for the seal element, and Xu is the storage for the strong body element, there will be punishments. When there is Chou and Ding, getting support, one will be extremely honored.
On the Xin Chou hour of the Ding Si day, one will gain honor through a woman. In the years and months of Si, You, Chou, and Shen, with prosperous wealth generating official positions, one will be wealthy and honored. In the Mao month, it is just ordinary, but if one experiences this fortune during this period, they can still be honored. In the Chou month, if one has a fortune in the southwest direction, they will achieve great honor.
On the day of Dingwei and at the time of Xinchou, there is a clash between the day and the time, which brings sorrow to one's wife. In the month of You, when there is the qi of water, it is auspicious. The same applies to the annual and seasonal cycles.
On the day of Dingyou and at the hour of Xinchou, if one is born in the years with the signs of Yin, Mao, Si, or Wu, they will have a strong physical constitution and good support. This indicates that they will achieve high - ranking in literary fame and receive extraordinary favors. If born in the years with the signs of Shen, You, or Xu, since wealth is prosperous and they can follow the prosperous trend of wealth, it is the most auspicious situation. If born in the years with the signs of Hai or Zi, as official luck is prosperous, it is also auspicious.
On the day of Dinghai and at the time of Xinchou, if one is born in spring when the seal - energy is present, it is auspicious. If born in autumn and there is the influence of the fire - energy, it is also auspicious. If born in summer when the energy is overly prosperous, it is inauspicious. If born in winter when the official - killing energy is strong, it is auspicious. If born in the months of Weixu, the Chou storage is opened by the conflict, and one will be wealthy.
In the Xin Chou year when encountering Ding, it is like a treasure vault. But if there are no "keys" in the pillars, it's hard to claim wealth. When the punishment and conflict occur in the fortune and one meets a noble person, one will make a fortune in a foreign land and gain a good reputation. When a person born on a Ding day meets Xin Chou at the hour, there is a fortune of partial wealth in the treasury, and it is happy to have punishment and conflict. If there is no obvious fortune but only a false name, one's wife and children should celebrate for each other. One's parents and siblings are hard to get along well, and the family situation will change. When one gets rich and prosperous and sees a revival, it must be a glorious life.
