Analysis of the Xin Si Hour on the Days of the Six Gengs
Original Text
六庚日生时辛巳，偏官合刃自身生；
为人刚毅妻财损，运到金乡贵禄享。
庚日辛巳时，阳刃偏官。庚以辛为刃，丙为杀。明辛暗丙，合煞为权。通身旺月，贵；不通，无贵，寿考。
庚子日辛巳时，春富；夏、秋贵；冬贫。辰戌丑未年月，印绶，行西南运，贵。
庚寅日辛巳时，巳酉丑月，身旺，贵。煞旺身弱月，贫。纯申年月，大贵悠久。亥月，东南运、主有权贵。
庚辰日辛巳时，巳酉丑月，身旺，贵。煞旺身弱月，贫。纯申年月，大贵悠久。亥月，东南运、主有权贵。
庚辰日辛巳时，终蹇。年月不见财，高。通木气，行西南运；未申，东北运，俱贵。一云先无后有。
庚午日辛巳时，巳午卯年月，进士风宪。巳申酉戌，行土木运，侯伯。
庚申日辛巳时，刑。巳酉丑月，特达。春夏，木火旺，财官得地，吉。辰戌丑未，印绶，行南运，贵。
庚戌日辛巳时，年月遇财，吉。午未，行东南运，文职操权，恐无好终。寅申、翰林宰辅；若行火运，亦难善终。庚日相逢时已生，为人福禄依稀平；刑冲破害柱如有，自立自成免祸惊。庚日时临辛巳，败财暗鬼偷寻。财去财来小人侵，祖父家基难荫。外合重行发福，兄弟雁行无音。妻迟子晚喜开心，先苦后荣之命。
Interpretation
On the day of the sixth Geng, when the hour is Xin Si, the partial official combines with the blade and the self is born.
A man of firm and resolute character may suffer losses in terms of wife and wealth, but when fortune arrives in the place of gold, he will enjoy high status and good fortune.
On the Geng day and Xin Si hour, it represents the Yang Blade and the Partial Officer. For Geng, Xin serves as the Blade, and Bing is the Slayer. With Xin being obvious and Bing being hidden, combining the Slayer brings power. If one's birth month is conducive to the prosperity of the body element, it indicates nobility; if not, there is no nobility, but one can enjoy a long life.
On the Gengzi day and Xinsi hour, those born in spring will be wealthy; those born in summer or autumn will be noble; those born in winter will be poor. If they are born in the years or months related to Chen, Xu, Chou, or Wei, with the influence of Yinshou (a concept in traditional Chinese fortune - telling), and when they experience the fortune in the southwest direction, they will be noble.
On the Gengyin day and Xinsi hour, if it is the time from the Siyou Chou months, the body is prosperous and the person will be noble. If it is the month when the evil influence is strong and the body is weak, the person will be poor. If the year and month are purely Shen, the person will be extremely noble and this nobility will last long. In the Hai month, with the fortune in the southeast, the person will have power and nobility.
On the Gengchen day and Xinsi hour, if it is the month in the period of Siyou Chou, the person will have a strong physical and mental state and will be noble. If it is a month when the inauspicious influence is strong while the person's own fortune is weak, the person will be poor. If the year and month are both Shen, the person will enjoy great and long - lasting nobility. In the month of Hai, with the fortune in the southeast direction, the person will have power and nobility.
On the Gengchen day and Xinsi hour, one will end up in a difficult situation. If there is no indication of wealth in the year and month pillars, the person will have a high status. If the chart is connected to the qi of wood and the person experiences the southwest fortune; or in the periods of Weishen and the northeast fortune, they will all achieve nobility. Another view is that one will have nothing at first and then gain something.
On the Gengwu day and Xinsi hour, if the year and month belong to the combination of Simaomao (referring to the relevant time in the Chinese zodiac calendar), one can become a Jinshi (a successful candidate in the highest imperial examination) and hold a position in the disciplinary inspection system. If the time involves Shenshenyouxu, and when the Earth and Wood fortune prevails, one can be conferred the title of Marquis or Earl.
On the Gengshen day and Xinsi hour, there is punishment. In the months of Siyou and Chou, one will achieve remarkable success. In spring and summer, when the wood and fire are prosperous and the wealth and official positions are well - placed, it is auspicious. In the months of Chen, Xu, Chou and Wei, with the seal and ribbon, if one travels in the southern direction, one will be noble.
On the Gengxu day and at the Xinsi hour, if there is wealth in the year and month columns, it is auspicious. If there are Wu and Wei in the columns and one travels in the southeast direction in terms of fortune, one will hold power in a civilian position, but may not end well. With Yin and Shen in the columns, one may become a high - ranking official in the imperial academy; however, if one travels in the fire - related fortune, it is also difficult to have a good ending. When a person is born on a Geng day at the Xinsi hour, his fortune and blessings are just so - so. If there are punishments, clashes, breakings, and harms in the columns, it is better to be self - reliant to avoid disasters. When a Geng day meets the Xinsi hour, there will be a loss of wealth and hidden misfortunes. Wealth comes and goes due to the intrusion of villains, and it is difficult to inherit the family foundation from grandparents. One may gain fortune through external cooperation, but there will be little contact with siblings. One will get married late and have children late, but will eventually be happy. It is a life of suffering first and then prosperity.
