Abandon the Seal for Wealth

Original Text

经云：弃印就财明偏正，印绶忌财，此理甚明。正印居月令者，决不可见财，若居年时，月令见财只用财格，喜印生身，敌财为福。若偏印，月令年时见财无妨，为弃印就财，舍轻用重。如壬生申月，丙生寅月，坐长生之地，年时得财，即身旺喜见财地，如此造化，必主弃祖基而自创别业立身。

Interpretation

The classic says: Abandoning the seal for wealth clarifies the distinction between the regular and the partial. The seal is averse to wealth, and this principle is quite clear. If the regular seal occupies the month pillar, it must never encounter wealth. If it is in the year or hour pillar and wealth is seen in the month pillar, then only the wealth pattern is considered. It is favorable for the seal to generate the self, and having the self resist wealth brings good fortune. As for the partial seal, it doesn't matter if wealth is seen in the month, year, or hour pillars. This is called abandoning the seal for wealth, choosing the more important over the less important. For example, when a person is born with the Ren element in the Shen month or the Bing element in the Yin month, sitting in the place of long - life. If wealth is obtained in the year or hour pillars, that is, when the self is strong and it is favorable to encounter the wealth position. With such a fortune, it is certain that the person will abandon the ancestral estate and create his own career to establish himself.
