What does it mean to moisten the soil?
Through the article "Four Pillars of heavenly stems and earthly branches", we know the origin of eight characters, that is, the heavenly stems and earthly branches value when a person is born, and the four values of year, month and day are eight characters, so it is called "eight characters". For example: Xin Chou Nian, Geng, Ding, Xin Chou Shi. So what about the five elements from the eight characters?
The five elements are wood, fire, earth, gold and water, which represent five material attributes and are abstract concepts. The theory of five elements has a long history in China. Five is a common number, five fingers, five senses, five internal organs and five tastes. . . There are many things that can be divided into five categories.
There is a traditional theory that there are five elements in a person's birth time. So how to deduce the number of five elements from the eight characters? The method is to find out the five-element attribute of heavenly stems and earthly branches, and then calculate the five-element attribute hidden in the earthly branch (the five-element attribute hidden in the earthly branch is related to heavenly stems, so it is called Tibetan heavenly stems because it is considered to be related to human activities).
(1) Main branch and five elements:
Ten-day dry five elements attribute:
A and B belong to wood; C and D belong to fire; 5. Belonging to soil; Geng and Xin are gold; Nonyl and decyl water;
Twelve branches and five elements attribute:
Yin and Mao belong to wood; It is fire in the afternoon; Shen, you belong to gold; Hai and Zi belong to water; Chen, Xu and Ugly do not belong to the soil;
(2) Five Elements in Tibet:
Five elements of "Yuan Mantian Gan" hidden in the earthly branch;
Son: Dnieper (Water)
Ugliness: Self-ugliness (dirt), Xin-ugliness (gold) and Gui-ugliness (water)
Yin: A (wood), C (fire) and E (earth).
Mao: B (wood)
Chen: Wu (earth), Gui (water) and B (wood).
C (fire), E (earth), G (gold)
Afternoon: Ding (fire), Ji (earth)
Wei: Ji (earth), B (wood) and D (fire)
Shen: Geng Xu (gold), Ren Xu (water), the Reform Movement of 1898 (earth)
Unitary: Xin (Jin)
Xu: Wu (Earth), Xin (Gold), Ding (Fire)
Hai: Ren (Shui) Jia (Mu)
For example:
Eight characters: Xin Chou nian, Geng, Ding, Xin Chou Shi, work out:
Branches and five elements: wood 2, fire 1, earth 2, gold 3, water 0 (the general name only looks at branches and five elements, among which five elements are short of water).
Together with supporting and storing the five elements, the total number of the five elements is: wood 4, fire 2, earth 5, gold 5 and water 2 (the total number of the five elements is related to the strength of human internal organs)
The key to a person is to nurse and work hard. There are many factors that determine a person, and birthdays are not credible.
