Physical misfortune here refers to bodily harm attributed to the interactions or specific conditions of 5-elements inside one’s birth or Bazi chart. This bodily harm is further distinguished by whether it is a “sickness” or “injury” caused by this Bazi condition. Both sickness and injury could possibly lead to death, but in general, injury could result in quicker death like in an auto accident.

The question arises: How do we tell if the physical misfortune of a chart is an “injury” or “sickness“?

This article is written for my “Sickness Bazi” course members. Here I show you how to identify potential injury misfortune in a Bazi chart reading. This one is more complicated than spotting out sickness misfortune.

CHARACTERISTICS OF INJURY MISFORTUNE

This is characterized by two elements with strong energy battling each other without a mediator to dissipate the animosity. For example, a chart with strong water and fire elements but no wood to mediate.

Below isa list of 2-elements battling and possible injuries:

Metal and wood battling: limbs, tendon, bone and head external injuries
Wood and earth battling: skin and muscle injury; injury from falling object
Wood and fire battling: burn by fire or hot object, also bloody injury
Metal and fire battling: bleeding injury with scars later on.
Water and fire battling: bleeding, burnt and traffic accident.
Earth and water battling: landslide or flooding injury/death; drowning

Sickness misfortune is much easier to discern. Smart readers here could have figured out already. If not, take this course:

“Single Ding-fire or lone Jia-wood implies blindness or lameness” 单丁独甲不瞎也跛

Posted by kenlai under Bazi | Tags: 4P, asthma, Bazi, blindness, chronic illness, 男怕单丁, disability, 脚跛眼瞎, hypertension, Ken Lai, lameness, scar, 单丁独甲, 女怕独甲 |
Leave a Comment

In traditional China, street Bazi readers, especially the blind ones, has a saying:

“Single Ding or lone Jia implies lameness or blindness.” (单丁独甲，脚跛眼瞎)

“Male is scare of single ding and female is afraid of lone jia.” (男怕单丁,女怕独甲)

What it means is: when a Bazi birth chart has only one ding-fire and/ or one jia-wood, the chart owner (“daymaster” or DM) is likely blind or lame. Further extended meanings are: DM or DM’s close relative is likely to have chronic or long term illness or disability.

“Chronic or long term illness” refers to illnesses that have no cure but require long term care and medication like hypertension, heart diseases, stomach ulcer, asthma and the likes.

“Disability” here refers to missing a certain body parts like chopped finger, facial scars, broken limbs and the like.

If ding-fire or jia-wood represents +output star (shang-guan) or power stars (+/- power), the disability or injury will be a major one. If not, the effect will be minor.

This “single ding and lone jia” theory is not based on any logic but empirical observations. People with this chart condition, they or their close relative are likely blind, lame or suffering long term illness. If they have not run into this problem during their younger years, they are likely to suffer such event during middle or old age.

You can check if your Bazi birth chart has single ding or lone jia easily even if you know nothing about Bazi. Simply log into http://www.bazi-calculator.com, key in your birth day and birth hour and click the “calculate” box. Then you check the Bazi chart in the left side of the screen for red box or green box like the ones shown here.

If you have only one red ding-fire box or one green jia-wood box OR you have 1 red ding-fire and one green jia-wood box– you hit the minor misfortune jackpot. If you have 2 or more red ding-fire boxes or 2 or more green jia-wood boxes, you are OK.

There are Bazi guidelines to decipher:

who suffers (the chart owner or his/her close relative)?
which type of illness?
where in the body (organ or body part) suffers?

These guidelines are posted in my Bazi discussion lists.

Bathroom location and related sickness 厠所与疾病

Posted by kenlai under bagua, Feng Shui, Ken Lai | Tags: Bagua representations, bathroom Feng Shui, bathroom location and health, bathroom location and illness, COVID-19, Ken Lai, toilet location and illness |
Leave a Comment

I have written about bathroom Feng Shui in 2017:

http://kenlaifengshui.blogspot.com/2017/11/feng-shui-bad-locations-for-bathroom.html

Bathroom is probably the most likely location to spread germs and bacteria in a house if hygiene is neglected.

A few days ago, there is an article on how the University of Arizona predicts COVID-19 outbreak by checking the sewage system of its campus buildings.

https://www.theverge.com/21283825/sewer-systems-coronavirus-seawge-data-warning-signs-cities

In Chinese Feng Shui, we can predict the likely illnesses associated with the location of toilet.

This article discusses the likely illnesses attributed to specific bathroom locations.

BATHROOM IN:

North: Residents are prone to ear, blood, kidney, reproductive and excretory system illnesses. Middle son or middle-aged male family member is likely to get these illnesses.
South: Residents are prone to eye, heart and blood related illnesses. Middle daughter or middle-aged female family member is likely to get these illnesses.
East: Residents are prone to hand, foot, liver, gallbladder, eyes and nervous system sicknesses. Elder son or late middle-aged male family member is likely to get these illnesses.
West: Residents are prone to mouth, respiratory organs, lungs, throat, teeth and skeleton related illnesses. Youngest daughter or teenager female member is likely to get these illnesses.
Northeast: Residents are prone to skin, nose, hand, foot, stomach, spleen and intestinal illnesses. Youngest son or teenager male member is likely to get these illnesses.
Northwest: Residents are prone to mouth, respiratory organs, lungs, throat, teeth and skeleton related illnesses. Household male head or oldest male in the house is likely to get these illnesses. Bathroom in this location may create runaway/ weak husband and no husband for single female household.
Southeast: Residents are prone to hand, foot, liver, gallbladder, eyes and nervous system sicknesses. Elder daughter or late middle-aged female family member is likely to get these illnesses. Bathroom in this location also affects academic and career performance.
Southwest: Residents are prone to skin, nose, hand, foot, stomach, spleen and intestinal illnesses. Household female head or oldest female in the house is likely to get these illnesses.
Center: This is the worst location for a bathroom. Center is like the “heart” of a house and should be kept quiet, clean, minimized movements, no heavy objects, no staircase and no bathroom. Sickness like heart problem and acute illness resulting in death may occur to the residents if a bathroom is put in this location. This is also the most difficult problem to fix here. Walk away if you find a new house with a bathroom in the house center.

You should know how the above illnesses are derived if you know the representations of Bauga or “8-trigrams” in Chinese metaphysics.

You may consult your Feng Shui teacher or practitioner for remedies. Simple and inexpensive remedies are posted in my Feng Shui discussion groups. Membership for the group requires taking at least one Feng Shui course from Ken Lai.

There are some solutions for bathroom Feng Shui in my “Advanced Visual Form Feng Shui” video course (please check below for details).

In traditional China, blind fortune-tellers recite the coded poems from the exclusive Blindman Bazi library to give “iron mouth no-holds-barred revelation 铁口直断” in readings. Below are rare to find meanings of multiple identical “10-Gods” or transformation stars within a chart– taken from this Blindman Bazi library. For example, what is the possible meaning for a chart with 6 +wealth (zheng-cai) ?

THE AUSPICIOUS 10-GODS GROUP

+Wealth (zheng-cai 正财): this refers to wealth, regular income and wife

one +wealth element means wealth 一财是财
two +wealth mean mistresses 二财是妾
three +wealth mean lust 三财是色
four +wealth mean greed 四财是贪
five +wealth mean disasters due to chasing/ losing wealth 五财聚散成灾
six +wealth mean poverty when daymaster (DM, the person) is weak 六财身弱当贫
seven +wealth mean “follow wealth” profile and the person is likely wealthy 七财从势金玉满堂

+Power (zheng-guan 正官): this refers to superior/ boss or career luck

one +power element means power/ official 一官是官
two +power mean narrow or tight-minded 二官是狭
three +power mean sinister 三官是鬼
four +power mean too much self-control or self-suppressive 四官是难
five +power mean inevitable prison terms 五官牢刑难免
six +power mean unnatural death 六官死于非命

+Resource (zheng-yin 正印): this refers to mother, education or documents

one +resource element means official or real power 一印是权
two +resource represent parents 二印椿萱
three +resource mean indecisive personality 三印少决
four +resource mean handicap or disability 四印伤残
five +resource mean burying sons and no descendant 五印埋儿断后
six +resource mean laziness and eating disorder/ indulgement 六印懒惰偷馋
seven +resource mean “extreme strong” profile and the person becomes religious 七印势极反到佛前

-Peer (bi-jian 比肩): this refers to sibling, friends, coworkers and peers

one -peer element means loyalty and kindness 一比仁义
two -peer mean sociable and easy-going 二比和气

four -peer mean lacking profit/ interest 四比乏利
five -peer mean leaving hometown to survive 五比离乡背井
six -peer mean struggling in poverty 六比贫困无疑

-Output (shi-shen 食神): this refers to children, talent, students

one -output element means the person is a scholar/ learned 一食才子
two -output mean the person likes eating 二食吃吃
three -output mean the person is stupid and swollen/ overweighted 三食愚肿
four -output mean the person is not too smart 四食弱智

six -output mean the person tarnishing his family name and has a short life expectancy 六食妨祖短世
seven -output mean “follow output” profile and the person becomes a capable official 七食花红反到治世

THE INAUSPICIOUS 10-GODS GROUP

-Power (qi-sha 七杀): this refers to unofficial power
-Resource (pian-yin 偏印): this refers to step mother
+Peer (jie-cai 劫财): this refers to sibling, friends, coworkers and peers
+Output (shang-guan 伤官): this refers to children, talent, IQ, students
-Wealth (pian-cai 偏财): this refers to non-regular income and mistress (partially negative)

We only disclose the secret multiple meanings of “positive” or auspicious “10-Gods” here. The “negative” or inauspicious ones will be posted in my Bazi discussion groups. Membership in these groups requires taking at least one Bazi course from me.

Generally speaking, +wealth, +resource, -output, -peer and +power are categorically considered “positive” or auspicious. -Wealth is more positive than negative because it usually involves bigger wealth opportunities. -Resource, +output, +peer and -power are relatively “negative” or inauspicious. But all these assigned meanings are relative and not absolute. All could be positive or negative depending on the composition of a Bazi chart.

“This woman will marry 7 times and kill 7 husbands”

Posted by kenlai under 4P, Bazi, Chinese metaphysics, marital relationship, marriage, mate-selection | Tags: jinxing husband, marital relationship, mate-selection, serial polygamy |
Leave a Comment

Note: Below is a case study posted in my Bazi discussion groups.

“This woman will marry 7 times and kill 7 husbands.” A blind fortune-teller in China told a Bazi enthusiast about one of his unusual readings.

This reading was done around 2009, so the woman was 28 (Ji-hai 10-years-luck) at that time. Here is her chart:

Female born: August 30, 1981, zi hour

Void Branch: shen/ you

10-years-luck when reading is done: Ji-hai

昨天他和我聊天,说他看了个女命,1981年8月初二子时的,他说她杀七夫,要结七次婚!果然那个跑了一二百里路来的女同志已经是结第六次婚了!

At time of reading, this woman had already married 6 times. “Kill 7 husbands” does not mean this woman is a serial killer. It means she jinxes 7 men to death eventually through marriage.

Could you figure out how does this blind fortune-teller arrived at jinxing 7 husbands?

Ken Lai

****************************************

Below is one of the possible explanations written by a group member:

Hi Ken,

I had a look at this interesting chart for the women who jinxes 7 husbands:

Here’s my observations:

Geng – Chen (Already a Strong day master- fai kong)

I note an outstanding feature of this chart: Full water formation, the rat, dragon and monkey – very strong water – in addition, it is the August – Metal month, so water is in season too.

Also her Bing (month stem ) and Xin (year stem) combine to form Water as it is also “in season” (monkey month).

Her chart is almost made up entirely of water – Because fire and water battle each other – the Water will win as it is in season.

Water is her Shi-shen and Shang-guan (her children ) so these in a woman’s chart can be naturally very overpowering (note: Water shang-guan hurts fire husband or power star). In her case water is super strong! It will kill her husband/partner element (he doesn’t stand a chance)

Metal and water are so strong in the chart, can mean – strong sex drive, very active organs and children. I could only think that she has :

Water elements : Zi (gui), Wu (gui) (Ren hidden in the Shen)

Then the combination – of Bing + Xin = 1 more water4 water features
Then I realised for the last she has metal : 3 strong metal elements which both support water. (metal her DM, Geng in (shen) and Xin (You) So I calculated in total 7 husbands/boyfriends. As the water and metal kill off the husbands!

xxxxxxxx (name)
****************************************

This is a great explanation written by the wife of a lucky fellow. I have asked her if she has found any “lethal weapons” in her own natal chart.

There are more mind-boggling explanations on how to arrive at 7 husbands in the original discussion. There is another “7-husbands woman” bonus case in the discussion posted in the forum. This is a great case study that I cannot resist putting this into that message:

“This tutorial alone worth the price paid for your course! Time to buy my “Sickness Bazi” or “Wealth Bazi” course if you have missed it. These two courses have 100’s of case studies that would catapult your 4P skills to another level.”

Self-penalty Secrets 自刑秘中秘

Posted by kenlai under 4-Pillars, 4P Bootcamp, Bazi, self-penalty | Tags: anxiety, autistic, chen-chen self-penalty, depression, hai-hai self penalty, humiliation, mass suicide, narcissism, obese, wu-wu self-penalty, you-you self-penalty |
Leave a Comment

Self-penalty is one of the mysterious topic in Bazi. The main manifestations of self-penalty are:

suicidal (自杀)
self-harm/ destruct (自残)
self-abuse/ torture (自虐)
autistic (自闭)
narcissism (自恋)
egoistic/ selfishness (自私)
worrisome/ anxiety (自寻烦恼)

When the self-penalty element is favorable (“yong-shen“) the person will have major achievements in arts and law. But s/he is also likely to have at least one major deficiency in life either physically or in relationship..

Here are the four self-penalties:

CHEN-CHEN SELF-PENALITY

Chen is earth energy which “sinks” or burying underground. When Chen is inauspicious to an individual, s/he tries to shun reality.

psychological manifestations: unable to get full play of one’s talent, enduring humiliation, submission to external pressure, inability to resist unfair treatment, feeling of inferiority, losing interests to study or life, pessimistic, depressive and autistic.
physical manifestations: obese, beer belly, zen meditation, binge eating disorder, dieting, weight-loss, taking medication, drug-addiction, self-poisoning, alcoholism, stomach cancer, breast tumor and fasting.

WU-WU SELF-PENALITY

Wu is fire energy which has the image of brightness and emptiness (空明之象). When Wu is inauspicious to an individual, s/he feels “lost” and alienated.

psychological manifestations: losing self-esteem, especially for formerly famous and successful people who have suffered strings of failures. They feel “losing face” and disappear or commit suicides.
physical manifestations: hot temper, irritable, impatience, fire burnt, chain-smoking, insomnia, myopia, tachycardia, fantasizing, mental depression, self-scare, autistic, hanging and self-immolation.

YOU-YOU SELF-PENALITY

You is metal energy which has the image of toughness and belligerence. When You is inauspicious to an individual, s/he acts impulsively or violates social norms/ laws and tries to escape legal responsibility.

psychological manifestations: committing suicide to avoid facing justice, overcame by anger or emotion and committed suicide, suicide due to a lapse of judgement or impulse resulting from argument, conflict or “feeling slighted” with relatives or friends.
physical manifestations: self-abuse through car collusion, cutting veins, jumping from building, cosmetic surgery, tattooing. shooting self with a gun, panting, skin scar, yelling and practicing martial arts.

HAI-HAI SELF-PENALITY

Hai is water energy which has the image of rushing water and “desire” (奔流欲望). When Hai is inauspicious to an individual, s/he feels suicidal when not getting his/ her love or desire fulfilled.

psychological manifestations: suicide due to: interference in mate-selection, unhappy marriage, mistress/ lover interference in a marriage or dying together with the mistress/ lover. Water “follows” others– this could also be mass or group suicide due to the leader wanted to die.
physical manifestations: too many desires, over-sexed, sexually-transmitted-illnesses, apathy, worrisome, forgetful, shooting oneself on the foot, suicide by poison/ gas/ jumping river or sea,

Will you marry a great wife?

Posted by kenlai under 4P, Bazi, marriage | Tags: 4P, Bazi, 禄, dating, 财入妻宫, 财星当令, 财为用神, follow wealth, good wife, Ken Lai, marital Bazi, mate-selection, power star, spouse palace, wealth star, wealthy wife, 官入妻宫 |

“Will I marry a good wife?” is a common question asked by many single men. You may find the answer in your own birthday Bazi chart.

To check marital relationship in Bazi for men, the place to look at is the spouse palace of the day-pillar and wealth stars (zheng-cai/ pian-cai). Wealth star represents wife or mistress.

Below are chart features that bring you a good wife:

1. Wealth star is favorable (“yong-shen”) in natal chart (财为用神): “Favorable” here means wealth star is good for the balance of your natal chart. This will bring you a pretty and virtuous wife with marital bliss.

2. Wealth star is “in season” in natal chart (财星当令): “In season” here means the birth month is also a wealth month. Man born in a wealth month usually are good at building relationship with women. If wealth star is favorable, this man is likely marrying early with a pretty wife. Wife’s family is likely rich or prominent in local region.

3. Wealth star sits in spouse palace (财入妻宫): “Spouse palace” is the day-branch element. Wealth star stands for wife. When wealth star sits in the spouse palace means “star and palace matching” and is auspicious. This man will get a capable and virtuous wife with good education and probably affluent family background. Wife will bring good luck and wealth to him after marriage.

4. Power star sits in spouse palace (官入妻宫): “Power star“, besides means husband for female, also represents “luk 禄“. “Luk” means wealth and fame derived from career or government positions. When a man’s spouse palace is occupied by a power star, it means he may derive his blessing and fame from wife’s connection or social background.

You must also check the daymaster (DM) strength of the chart before applying the above features. The features above are mostly applicable to charts with a strong or special “follow wealth” daymaster.

Leave a Comment

cougar Men with certain personality characteristics can handle older women as lover or wives better than others. Most of these specific personalty traits are innate or born with. By checking the natal chart of a man, we can predict if he is a better candidate to date or marry older woman or “cougar“.

Below are the Bazi characteristics of men for dating older women. Please check the personality section of your Bazi books or ask your teacher for explanation.

(Daymaster or DM below means the man in question)

1. Daymaster (DM) sits on -power star (qi-sha)

People with the following day-pillars sit on -power star: Yi-you, Wu-yin, JI-mao, Ren-xu, Gui-wei and Gui-chou.

2. DM sits on +power star (zheng-guan)

People with the following day-pillars sit on +power star: Bing-zi, Ding-hai, Geng-wu and Xin-si.

3. DM sits on +resource star (zheng-yin)

People with the following day-pillar sit on +resource star: Ji-zi, Yi-hai, Wu-wu and Ji-si.

4. DM sits on -resource star (pian-yin)

People with the following day-pillar sit on -resource star: Bing-Yin, Ding-mao, Geng-chen, Geng-xu, Xin-wei, Xin-chou, Ren-shen and Gui-you.

5. DM combines with a nearby stem

Below are the two types of DM combinations

a. Yang DM combines with wealth element (zheng-cai) sitting in month or hour pillar:

Jia-wood DM combines with Ji-earth
Bing-fire DM combines with Xin-metal
Wu-earth DM combines with Gui-water
Geng-metal DM combines with Yi-wood
Ren-water DM combines with Ding-fire

b. Yin DM combines with power element (zheng-guan) sitting in month or hour pillar:

Yi-wood DM combines with Geng-metal
Ding-fire DM combines with Ren-water
Ji-earth DM combines with Jia-wood
Xin-metal DM combines with Bing-fire
Gui-water DM combines with Wu-earth

If it is too late for you to find an older woman now, you at the least know who you should date when you are “free” again.

Friendly reminder: You may go to a bottomless hell for eternity if you use this article as pretext to divorce your wife.

Money Emergency? Help is hidden in your own home!

Posted by kenlai under earth deity, Ken Lai, wealth god, Wealth luck | Tags: 福德公, daoism, earth-god mantra, earth-god wealth enhancement, emergency money, God of Blessing and Virtue, human consciousness, Ken Lai, money emergency, wealth |
Leave a Comment

“Money emergency” here does not include no money for beer, cigarettes, I-Phone or the likes. It refers to money for food, rent and other basic necessities.

Many cultures have the belief of “earth-god“. Chinese believes that every household has an earth-god stationing inside. He is the first line of defense against intrusion of malignant spirits, ghosts and other beings for your house.

Earth-God is a relatively low rank deity. He is commonly selected from “enlightened spirit or ghost” (including animal spirit). This includes the spirits of people who were righteous and pious when they were alive. They are granted the title of “Fu-De-Gong” (福德公, God of blessing and virtue, the official name of earth-god) by local spiritual authority and are worshiped in temples after they had died.

Earth-God

Earth-god is also regarded as “wealth-god” who takes care of the material and social well-being of the household he watches over. So there is a tremendous mass-consciousness about the power and function of earth-god for centuries— he is the protector and wealth-god of the household. It is quite common to see earth-god altars everywhere in Hong Kong, Taiwan and many SE Asian countries.

In terms of consciousness, earth-god is more close to human level and is sympathetic to human needs and suffering. Hence, earth-god and other lower level deities actually are more responsive to your prayers than higher rank deities like Bodhistsattva (equivalent of St. Mary) and Buddha. Some people have joked that you may get poorer praying to Buddhist and Daoist deities because they emphasize “nothingness” and “emptiness” (don’t cling to materials and money!).

Hence if you are suffering from money emergency during the current pandemic, help is surprisingly close to you– your own earth-god inside your house.

Higher level deities are more concerned with your overall well-being like health or spirituality and are not too responsive to minor requests, especially plea for money. My Daoist sifu had taught me that earth-god is good for bringing small fortunes and I did not believe him until I have set up an earth-god altar. Within a week of setting up the altar, I got a rush of orders for my correspondence courses AFTER Christmas (people normally are broke after holiday spending).

EARTH-GOD MANTRA (transliteration of Sanskrit)

“NaMo SanManDor, WuDaiNam. OM. DuLuDuLu. DeViSoHa”

—- Recite the mantra 7 times to enhance your plea.

HOW TO SETUP A SIMPLE EARTH-GOD ALTAR

1. Print out the earth-god picture here or do a Google-search on “Chinese earth-god” and select the image you like. Print the image out (at least 5 x 7 inches size). Alternatively, you may simply write “EARTH GOD” in your own language on a piece of paper instead of an image.

2. Go to a nearby temple to have the earth-god picture rotate on top of burning incenses 3 times and at the same time, visualize (imagine) an earth-god descends from heaven and enters into the picture (if there is no temples around you, you can light 3 incenses or candles and do the same procedure at home).

3. Put a dollar bill or a small size local currency into a red packet or envelop, stick it to the back of the earth-god picture.

4. Put the earth-god picture with the red envelop into a picture frame

5. Normally, earth-god altar is put outside your house, close to your main door. If you have problem doing that (like weather or someone may steal it), you can put it inside your house in a location that faces the main door.

6. Earth-god altar should be put close to the ground (or even on the ground). You may put the picture frame against a wall on a clean tray or in the lowest level of a bookshelf.

7. Select a good date to set up the altar (a day that does not clash your animal sign).

HOW TO MAINTAIN AN EARTH-GOD ALTAR

a. Minimal maintenance: put 3 small cups (like 2 oz size) of water or tea in front of the altar and change the liquid daily (prefer in the morning).

b. Basic maintenance: doing “a” plus lighting 3 sticks of incense

c. Normal maintenance: doing “a and b”, plus offering candies, cake and fruit (no tomato or fruit with seeds carried by bird feces) on the second and 16th days of the Moon (lunar month). Also special offerings (more varieties) during major festivals like Chinese New Year, Winter Solstice, 15th day of the 8th Moon…

d. Recite the Earth-God mantra 7 times: Pray to him if you have any request.

The offerings do not need to be huge portions, just a few pieces of candies, small cakes or a few fruits. Remember this works best for small fortune, especially legitimate emergency help. It probably works better if you make offering. Earth-god is pretty close to human consciousness in terms of thinking. So a little bit “grease” (offering) will probably keep things “smoother” for you! I always find new buying orders coming in after I have made an offering. However, your requests must be reasonable and based on good intention. Do not make ridiculous request like hitting the first prize of lottery. You may wear out your welcome mat if you keep on asking for money and/or not doing anything positive to push up your good “karma score”, like donating or volunteering for charity works. I guess treating earth-god as if he is one of your family members will help tremendously for the physical, spiritual and material well-being of your whole family.

WHERE DOES YOUR EARTH GOD MONEY COME FROM?

Chinese belief thinks how much wealth or money one enjoys is pretty much predetermined or fixed. So how does earth-god find money for you? He cannot grant you more money than your destiny is assigned. Based on my personal experience, I think he shuffles your money sources by:

prompting people who owe your money to repay you
prompting people who will buy your product/ service in the future to buy it NOW
giving you advance payment from your future entitlement

I also think earth-god cannot do this too often except when you are in urgent need.

SOME EXAMPLES OF THE EFFECTS OF EARTH-GOD MANTRA

Besides emergency money, earth-god may also do other miracles for you if he likes you. Below are some recorded examples:

Someone recites the mantra for an extended period and got rid of his 10 year old chronic skin problem.
Someone who had bad luck throughout his life and after recites the mantra regularly, his luck has changed and become rich from poor.
Someone who has problem getting pregnant for 10 years, gave birth to a baby boy after reciting the mantra for a while.
Someone’s life was full of obstacles and become smoother after reciting the mantra regularly.
Someone find a good spouse after reciting the mantra regularly.

PRECAUTIONS

You should not kill any snake or small reptile in your property as sometimes earth-god shows up as a snake or reptile. You get very bad luck if you accidentally kill your earth-god!

If you use this article to set up an altar, please make a donation of any size to your local charity or temple or church in the name of God of Blessing and Virtue. This provides the good beginning for your altar and exchange of good energy with the universe.

Good luck and Blessing!

“Strong” here is the politically correct way of saying “bitches/ shrews” or women that overwhelm both “average” men and woman. bossy

CHARACTERISTICS OF “STRONG” WOMEN

Over-strong output stars (食伤星太强 shang-guan/ shi-shen)
Day-stem daymaster (DM, the person) sits on -power star (qi-sha) or yang-knife (日坐七杀或阳刃)
Strong DM with “mixing of guan-sha” (mixing of zheng-guan and qi-sha 身强官杀混杂)
Chart with numerous +peer stars (jie-cai 劫财重重)

Please check your Bazi books for explanations or take my Bazi courses like “4P-Bootcamp” listed below.

You probably want to stay away from women with with 2+ of the above characteristics in their Bazi charts– unless you like to serve/ follow order or you have pleasant personality and can put up with any craps.

Actually, male charts with #1, 2 and 3 above are equally “strong“.
