"Living Together with the God of Food"

Original Text

谓甲食丙，甲子人见丙子之类，十三位即同，乃本家物也，得此者不贵即富，月不如日，日不如时，若互换生旺带禄，贵者大贵。如韩魏公：戊申、庚申、庚辰、庚辰；宋秦桧：庚午、己丑、乙卯、壬午；又明王崇古少保：乙亥、辛巳、戊申、庚申是也。如倒食本家，甲子年见壬子时，庚子年见戊子时，亦贵，但损子。

Interpretation

It is said that when it is stated that A consumes C, such as a person born in the year of Jiazi encountering the year of Bingzi and so on. When there is a thirteen - position correspondence, it belongs to the same family. Those who have this kind of situation will either be noble or wealthy. The influence of the month is not as strong as that of the day, and the influence of the day is not as strong as that of the hour. If there is an exchange of prosperous and well - endowed positions with the salary star, the noble ones will be extremely noble. For example, Han Qi (Han Weigong): His birth date was Wushen, Gengshen, Gengchen, Gengchen; Qin Hui of the Song Dynasty: His birth date was Gengwu, Jichou, Yimao, Renwu; and Wang Chonggu, the grand protector of the Ming Dynasty: His birth date was Yihai, Xinsi, Wushen, Gengshen. If there is a reverse consumption within the same family, such as a person born in the year of Jiazi encountering the hour of Renzi, or a person born in the year of Gengzi encountering the hour of Wuzhi, it also indicates nobility, but it may lead to the loss of sons.
