Sheep Strikes Pig and Snake

Original Text

此格乃辛未、癸未二日，以二三未字合起亥字，冲出巳中丙戊为辛癸之官，柱有酉丑一字合住贵气为妙，怕填实冲刑。如甲戌、辛未、癸未、癸丑，庚申、癸未、辛未、乙未，二命合格，俱贵。诗曰：羊击猪蛇格最强，日逢辛癸未相当，柱中再逢酉申字，合禄无伤入庙堂。以上诸格，须柱中无财官方用，有则不取。

Interpretation

This pattern applies to the days of Xinwei and Guiwei. When two or three Wei characters combine to form the Hai character, it forces out Bing and Wu in the Si position, which serve as the official stars for Xin and Gui. It is excellent if there is a You or Chou character in the natal chart to hold in the noble qi. It is feared that the pattern will be filled, counter - attacked, or in conflict. For example, in the natal charts of Jiaxu, Xinwei, Guiwei, Guichou and Gengshen, Guiwei, Xinwei, Yimao, these two charts match the pattern and both indicate nobility. There is a poem saying: "The pattern of the Goat striking the Pig and the Snake is extremely powerful. It is appropriate when the day stems are Xin and Gui and the day branches are Wei. If there are You or Shen characters in the chart, with the combined good fortune intact, one can enter the court." For all the above patterns, they can only be used when there are no wealth and official stars in the natal chart. If there are, they should not be considered.
