When Heavenly Stem Xin (辛) is above Earthly Stem Gui (癸). Xin (辛) represents the Heavenly Prison, and Gui (癸) represents the Heavenly Canopy (also known as Heavenly Net). These two inauspicious elements combine, indicating a formation where the sun and moon are obscured, one mistakenly enters the Heavenly Net, and all actions and movements are erratic and without basis.
Heavenly Stem Xin (辛) + Earthly Stem Gui (癸)
Heavenly Prison and Canopy refers to Heavenly Stem Xin (辛) above Earthly Stem Gui (癸). Xin (辛) is the Heavenly Prison, signifying crimes, punishments, and penalties. Gui (癸) is the Heavenly Net, also known as the Heavenly Canopy, signifying concealment, darkness, and restraint. With the Heavenly Prison above and the Heavenly Net below, a person within this formation is like being caught in a double net. Ancient texts state that it leads to the obscuring of the sun and moon, mistakenly entering the Heavenly Net, and erratic movements: the immediate future is dim, direction is unclear, and every action is ill-timed. The inauspiciousness of this formation lies in the word 'concealment'; it's not an overt disaster but a series of errors stemming from distorted information and misjudgment. Its inauspicious level is severe, especially for decision-making matters such as signing contracts, making final decisions, choosing a career, or selecting a partner, as what is seen at this time is often not the full picture. Based on the principle of formation, Gui water is produced by Xin metal; as metal generates water, the water becomes darker, and the inauspicious energy circulates endlessly, making it difficult to resolve quickly. If the palace encounters an auspicious door, it's like the clouds parting to reveal the moon, reducing the inauspiciousness by three parts, and it's advisable to wait for information to become clear. If it encounters the Death Door or Obstruction Door, the blockage is doubled, making progress almost impossible. In terms of application, whenever this formation occurs, the first priority is to verify information and suspend decisions. For those already caught in the net, it's best to retreat to advance, accepting small mistakes to avoid major disasters. If it encounters Emptiness, there is a breach in the net, which conversely indicates a loosening of restraint, allowing for an escape. The inauspiciousness is strongest during the transition from autumn to winter when both Xin and Gui are prosperous.
The workplace is shrouded in fog, and most of the information received is likely distorted. Career decisions made at this time are prone to pitfalls. It's not advisable to change jobs or take on projects with unclear origins. It's best to hold back, verify information from multiple sources, and act only when the situation becomes clear.
The path to wealth is obscured, investment targets may have hidden issues, and accounts may have unseen discrepancies. Contracts signed and money invested under this formation often lead to regret later. It's advisable to stop and observe. For those who have already invested, quickly audit and investigate, and withdraw as soon as problems are discovered.
There is concealment in the relationship; the other person is hiding something from you, or the image you see is very different from reality. For new relationships, get to know the person deeply before committing. For marriage, do not make major decisions about separation or reconciliation recently; instead, talk things through openly.
Illness may be hidden; surface symptoms might be mild, but underlying problems could be significant, with a high risk of misdiagnosis or missed diagnosis. Primarily affects kidneys, endocrine system, eye diseases, and emotional depression. It's advisable to undergo comprehensive and in-depth examinations, and a second opinion from another hospital is also worthwhile.
Travel is highly unfavorable. Prone to getting lost, delays, and being trapped. Risks are doubled at night and in rainy or foggy weather. This formation suggests mistakenly entering the Heavenly Net; do not easily trust guides in unfamiliar places. If possible, reschedule. If travel is essential, go with companions and maintain communication.
Lawsuits are inauspicious. The case may be deliberately muddled, key evidence concealed, and the case files seen by your side may not be complete. Guard against the opposing party setting traps to induce you to speak carelessly. It's advisable to have a lawyer verify each item, not to trust verbal promises, and to ensure all settlement terms are in writing.
