Answers without, answers within

My mentor in Paht Chee / Ba Zi analysis would like to add / clarify the following, with reference to Ms R’s Four Pillars:

Hidden Water:
The Snake + Monkey = Water is valid only if they are next to each other in the earthly branch of the Four Pillars chart (the book I’m referring to doesn’t explicitly state that! Grrrr!). HOWEVER, there is hidden Water - I happened to be right but for the wrong reason. Turns out the Monkey & Dragon combo also has hidden Water Stems.  Phew!

Water as Wealth (for Earth self-element):
The wealth element of Earth is Water. Ideally, Ms R should work in industries associated with the Water Element in order to attain her wealth. This could be obviously water-based professions like oceanology, or conceptually related professions like the finance and banking industry.

Seasonal considerations:
Ms R is born in Spring.  During this time, Wood exerts a very strong effect.  But remember that Wood is very bad for Earth - it is considered as destroying Earth.  So, what is needed to dampen Wood’s effect on Ms R?  Metal destroys Wood, and Fire exhausts Wood.  But if you take a look at Ms R’s chart once again, you’ll see the Fire available is rather small and weak.  And the one Metal there is competing against a lot of Wood that’s already there PLUS the seasonal Wood effect as well.
What this means:  Ms R would benefit from wearing Metal in order to weaken the Wood effect on her.   Also, in order to maintain balance, she should directly enhance her Earth-ness in moderation, and instead look to enhancing her Fire aspect which would then support Earth.  Summertime is the best time for her, as the Fire of Summer helps support her Earth.

Other Zodiacal relationships:
The trio of Rat, Dragon and Monkey are allies.  In Ms R’s Four Pillars, you see that her spouse is indicated by a Monkey and her parents by a Dragon.  This indicates that her spouse will get long well with his in-laws - now isn’t that good news?!

My thanks to my mentor for the corrections, clarification and additional insights!  And to you, dear reader, I continue to invite you to get your own Paht Chee / Ba Zi chart analysed: I’ll do it to the best of my ability in the best of faith, and will not hesitate to include a supplemental section like this highlighting my mentor’s feedback should I receive it.  Remember to read Free Readings for You! carefully, then drop me a line, okay?  Cheers!

… and now the home stretch! After having looked at what Ms R’s Four Pillars / Eight Characters had to say in Parts One and Two, let’s turn our attention to what is called the Ten Luck Pillars:

The 10-year pillars give an indication of types of luck awaiting you over an 80-year period. The relationship between each element is indicated in the table undreneath - note that this is valid for Earth self-elements only.

Some noteworthy points from the pillars:

Age 10 - 29:
This is the time for Ms R to bloom, leveraging resources and building her authority. The 10-year Yang Fire period will be particularly bright for her.

Age 30 - 69:
Over the course of these years, Ms R’s life will expand to include many friends and colleagues.  She also has periods where her creativity will be enhanced, or tapped - either way, creativity comes into play strongly and often.

Age 70 - onwards:
It looks like only at a much later age will Ms R enjoy the fruits of her labour: it looks like a financial windfall, or maturity of smart investments made earlier in life, will occur after age 70.

Do note, however, that Wood only appears in the first 5 years.  As such, Ms R might go through life taking full advantage of opportunities, successfully capitalising on them, and yet she might feel as if she isn’t gaining the recognition she deserves.  Here I can only advise to hang in there: perhaps the prospect of the financial security in the later years will help keep her going.  After all, the pillars indicate a great combination of friends and tapping of creativity and intellect, and I think that provides satisfaction already for Ms R.

I would like to thank Ms R. for the opportunity to take a stab at her Paht Chee / Ba Zi chart analysis.  Should I receive comments or feedback about whether anything was spot-on, way off, etc, I hope to be able to share that feedback here.  In the meantime, I hope all of you who followed along weren’t too lost, and instead are intrigued enough to get your own charts read, hint hint! 

If you would like a free Paht Chee chart analysis of your own, I’ll be happy to provide you with one!  Please read Free Readings for You! carefully, then drop me a line, okay?  Cheers!
