Analysis of the Gengyin Hour on the Six Bing Days
Original Text
六丙日生时庚寅，学堂生气助其身；运中有合通金局，必是荣华富贵人。
丙日庚寅时，生气学堂，丙寅上长生，文章秀气；丙以庚辛为财，寅上庚绝丙旺。若通月气金局者财旺，富贵双全，喜西方运；不通局者财薄。
丙子日庚寅时，生子月，近贵。癸酉月，行水木运，高贵；火木运，五品以上贵。未申、癸午年月，身居武职，大贵，寿浅。丙寅日庚寅时，贵不久。生酉申年月，世裔冷职。子丑寅未，贵显。纯寅尤吉。
丙辰日庚寅时，生寅午戌未年月，妻贤子孝，富贵双全。申子，行北运，大贵。酉丑，富。
丙午日庚寅时，年月无壬癸子未巳字，飞天禄马，贵。巳酉丑申，主文学，不贵即富。未月，伤官。辰月，先贫后富。亥月，行西运，贵显。
丙申日庚寅时，亥卯未、申子辰二局，官印两旺，大贵。巳丑财局，吉。寅午戌火局，平。
丙戌日庚寅时，生亥子月，贵显。申酉年月，行北方运；寅午戌，行官鬼运，俱大贵。若运临死绝，即入黄泉无疑。
丙庚相合遇寅时，险难消除福自随；运至寒门名将相，时来平步上云梯。丙日庚寅时准，双亲衰旺离乡。妻儿早害晚荣昌，白虎归山正旺。木有成林松柏，生涯广聚财粮。堆金积玉满高堂，共羡人言上样。」
Interpretation
Those born on the days of the six Bing (丙) with Gengyin (庚寅) as the birth hour are assisted by the "school hall" and the vital energy. If there is a combination in the fortune that leads to a metal - element situation, they are surely destined for wealth and honor.
On the Bing day and Gengyin hour, there is the qi of vitality and the school of learning. On the Bingyin day, it is the place of longevity, and one will have elegant literary talent. Bing takes Geng and Xin as wealth. On the Yin day, Geng is at its end while Bing is prosperous. If one's fate is connected to the metal - element situation according to the monthly qi, then the wealth will be prosperous, and one will enjoy both wealth and honor, and will benefit from the fortune in the western direction. If not connected to this situation, the wealth will be meager.
On the Bingzi day and Gengyin hour, if one is born in the Ziyue (the 11th lunar month), they will be close to the noble. If born in the Guiyouyue (the 10th lunar month), and the fortune is in the direction of Water and Wood, they will be of high status; if in the direction of Fire and Wood, they will be a noble above the fifth rank. In the years and months of Weishen and Guiwu, they will hold military positions, be extremely noble, but have a short lifespan. For those born on the Bingyin day and Gengyin hour, their nobility will not last long. If born in the years and months of Youshen, they will hold humble positions in the family's lineage. If born in the years and months of Zichou, Yinyu, and Weiyue, they will be noble and prominent. Being born in a year and month with all Yinyue is especially auspicious.
If one is born at the Gengyin hour on the Bingchen day, and the year and month fall into the combinations of Yin, Wu, Xu, or Wei, they will have a virtuous wife and filial children, and enjoy both wealth and honor. If born in the combinations of Shen and Zi and move northward in terms of fortune, they will achieve great nobility. If born in the combinations of You and Chou, they will be wealthy.
On the Bingwu day and Gengyin hour, if there are no characters of Ren, Gui, Zi, Wei, Si in the year and month, it indicates the Flying Heavenly Salary and Horse, which means nobility. If there are Si, You, Chou, Shen, it indicates proficiency in literature, and one will either be noble or wealthy. In the Wei month, it represents the Hurting Officer. In the Chen month, one will be poor first and then wealthy. In the Hai month, if one walks the Western Luck, one will be noble and prominent.
On the Bing Shen day and Geng Yin hour, in the two configurations of Hai Mao Wei and Shen Zi Chen, both the official and seal elements are prosperous, indicating great nobility. In the Ji Chou wealth configuration, it is auspicious. In the Yin Wu Xu fire configuration, it is mediocre.
On the day of Bingxu and at the hour of Gengyin, if one is born in the months of Haizi, they will be noble and prominent. If born in the years and months of Shenyou and travels in the northern direction in their fortune; or if born in the years and months related to Yinwuxu and travels in the fortune of official and ghost, they will all be extremely noble. However, if their fortune reaches the state of death and decline, there is no doubt that they will enter the underworld.
When Bing and Geng combine and it's the time of Yin, disasters will be eliminated and blessings will follow. When fortune arrives, even those from humble families can become famous officials; when good times come, one can rise to high positions easily. This prediction holds true for Bing days and Gengyin hours. One's parents may be in decline and one may leave one's hometown. One's wife and children may suffer early but there will be prosperity in later years. It's like the white tiger returning to the mountain in its prime. There will be a forest of pine and cypress, and one's career will gather a lot of wealth and grain. Gold and jade will fill the high - hall, and people will all envy and praise one as an outstanding example.
