Analysis of the Yi Hai Hour on the Six Ji Days
Original Text
六己日生时乙亥，官藏煞见未为奇；
逢金制煞方为吉，身不旺兮凶可知。
己日乙亥时，煞见官藏。己以甲为官，乙为鬼。亥上有明乙暗甲，为官煞混杂。柱中见辛制乙，去煞留官；通月气者，贵显。亥上水旺土虚，漂流失业，见财不聚，成败进退；要身鬼两停，方吉。不通月气，通运气，亦吉。
己丑日乙亥时，巳酉丑月，制煞留官，贵。午月，身旺，亦贵。子月、火运、七、八品，贵。卯未，透辛制乙，大贵。
己卯日乙亥时，卯月，偏官格，煞重身柔，作弃命看。壬字暗逢，志气轩昂；柱有制伏，行土金运，官至三、四品。丑月，杂气。辰、巳，西运，金紫。亥月，水运，夭。
己巳日乙亥时，寅午戌月，金神入火乡，贵。巳月、西北运，官至公卿。卯午，风宪。纯子亥年月，以财党煞，作弃看，主大兵权。
己未日乙亥时，无刑破混杂，清高、富贵，文学堪夸。
己酉日乙亥时，春夏，显达；秋，制伏太过，贫儒；冬，财旺。午巳戌年月，六、七品，贵。寅月，行金火运，四、五品，贵。
己亥日乙亥时，年月透辛制，贵；无制，亦主特达。戌月，风宪。已，亦贵。丑，土厚之宫，官至三品。一云自刑，多成败，晚富。
天元乙亥在时间，驿马长生不等闲；身旺煞强骈福禄，功名显达自欢颜。己日时逢乙亥，偏官喜遇正财。若逢身旺亦为佳，混杂天元减半。行藏进退无定，六亲雁侣兴衰。运行禄马自然来，富贵清闲自在。
Interpretation
When a person is born on a day with the Heavenly Stem of Ji and the Hour Stem of Yi and the Earthly Branch of Hai, the official qi is hidden and the killing qi is visible, which is not particularly remarkable.
It is auspicious when metal is encountered to counteract the inauspicious influence. If one's vital energy is not strong, the misfortune can be foreseen.
On a day with the Heavenly Stem Ji and the Earthly Branch Hai in the hour of Yi, the malevolent influence (killing qi) is apparent while the official qi is hidden. Ji takes Jia as the official and Yi as the malevolent influence (ghost). On the Earthly Branch Hai, there is the visible Yi and the hidden Jia, resulting in a mixture of the official and the malevolent influence. If there is Xin in the Pillar to control Yi, it means removing the malevolent influence and keeping the official. Those who have the qi of the month in harmony will be noble and prominent. On Hai, the water is strong while the earth is weak, which may lead to drifting and unemployment. When encountering wealth, it cannot be gathered, and there will be success, failure, advancement, and retreat. It is only auspicious when the qi of the self and the malevolent influence are in balance. Those who do not have the qi of the month in harmony but have favorable qi in the luck cycle will also have good fortune.
On the Jichou day and Yihai hour, if it is in the months when the earthly branches are Si, You, and Chou, the malevolent influence is restricted while the favorable influence is retained, which indicates nobility. In the Wu month, with a strong personal element, it also indicates nobility. In the Zi month or during the fire - dominated period, one can attain the seventh or eighth rank of nobility. In the Mao and Wei months, if Xin is revealed to restrict Yi, it indicates great nobility.
On the day of Jǐmǎo and at the hour of Yǐhài, if it is the Mao month, it belongs to the pattern of partial official. With a strong evil influence and a weak self, it should be regarded as a case of giving up one's fate. If the character Rén is secretly present, one will be full of lofty aspirations. If there are restraining elements in the Bazi, and when one walks through the earthly and metal luck periods, one can reach the third or fourth rank in officialdom. In the Chǒu month, it is a mixed qi situation. In the Chén, Sì months, and when walking through the Western luck, one can attain high - ranking official positions. In the Hài month, during the water luck period, one may die young.
On the day of Jisi and at the hour of Yihai, if it is in the months of Yin, Wu, or Xu, the "Golden God" enters the "Fire Region", which indicates nobility. In the month of Si and with a northwest fortune, one can reach the position of a high - ranking official. In the years or months with Mao and Wu, one can hold a position in the judicial and disciplinary system. If the years and months are purely Zi and Hai, since wealth supports the inauspicious "killing qi", it is regarded as a situation of "abandonment", and it means one will hold great military power.
On the day of Jǐwèi and at the time of Yǐhài, if there is no punishment, destruction, or confusion, one will be noble and wealthy, and their literary talent is praiseworthy.
On the day of Jiyou and at the hour of Yihai, if born in spring or summer, one will be prominent and successful; if born in autumn, being overly restricted, one will be a poor scholar; if born in winter, one will have prosperous wealth. If the year and month are Wusi or Xugou, one will hold a sixth or seventh - rank official position and be noble. If born in the month of Yin and moving in the fortune of metal and fire, one will hold a fourth or fifth - rank official position and be noble.
On the day of Jihai and at the hour of Yihai, if Xin appears in the year and month columns to counteract, it indicates nobility; if there is no counteraction, it still means outstanding achievements. In the Xu month, one may hold a position in the disciplinary department. In the Si month, one is also noble. In the Chou month, which represents a palace of thick earth, one can reach the third - rank official position. Another view is that self - punishment may lead to many setbacks and successes, and wealth will come in old age.
In the year of Yihai under Tianyuan in the time cycle, the lucky star of traveling and the stage of "Longsheng" are no ordinary signs. When one's body (in the context of fortune - related concepts) is strong and the inauspicious star is also powerful, both fortune and blessings will come together. One will achieve prominent fame and enjoy a happy countenance. For those born on a Ji - day and at the Yihai hour, the inauspicious star (partial official) happily meets the proper wealth star. If one's body is strong, it is also a good situation. However, if there is a mixture of elements in Tianyuan, the fortune will be halved. One's actions and decisions are uncertain, and the fortunes of relatives and friends will rise and fall. When the lucky stars of salary and traveling appear in the fortune - cycle, wealth and honor will come naturally, and one will live a leisurely and care - free life.
