When Heavenly Plate Gui (癸) adds to Earth Plate Wu (戊), Wu and Gui form a Heavenly Stem combination. It signifies auspiciousness in marriage and wealth, and assistance from benefactors in cooperative ventures. It is even more joyous if it falls into the three auspicious gates of Kai (开), Xiu (休), or Sheng (生).
Heavenly Plate Gui (癸) + Earth Plate Wu (戊)
Gui adds to Wu: With auspicious gates, it is favorable for seeking wealth, marriage is joyful and beautiful, and benefactors assist in forming alliances. If the gate is inauspicious or constrained, it will instead lead to official disputes.
Heavenly Yi Conjunction (天乙会合) is an auspicious formation where Heavenly Plate Gui (癸) adds to Earth Plate Wu (戊). Wu (戊) is the hidden stem of Jia Zi (甲子), also known as Heavenly Yi (天乙). Gui water (癸) and Wu earth (戊) form a Heavenly Stem combination, like a minister meeting his lord or a guest meeting his host, hence the name Heavenly Yi Conjunction. This formation signifies joy in harmony and union: marriages are easily formed, wealth accumulates, and endeavors receive assistance from benefactors. The principle of this formation lies in the Wu-Gui stem combination: Gui is the ultimate Yin water, and Wu is Yang earth. The harmonious pairing of Yin and Yang, and their interaction, symbolizes alliances, partnerships, and cooperation in human affairs. Any matter requiring two parties to come together will benefit from this formation. In terms of auspiciousness, the gate is crucial: with the three auspicious gates of Kai (开), Xiu (休), or Sheng (生), joy is multiplied, and both marriage and wealth are auspicious. If the palace falls into an inauspicious gate or is constrained, the union may turn into conflict, leading to official disputes and financial loss due to cooperation or contracts, as the classical text states: 'If the gate is inauspicious or constrained, it will instead lead to official disputes.' Important considerations: This formation favors cooperation, not solitary action; success comes from collaboration, and acting alone will diminish its auspiciousness. If it encounters Emptiness (空亡), the union is not substantial, and promises may fall through. Wu represents capital, and Gui represents liquidity; when both combine and are strong, matters of capital aggregation are particularly smooth. For actual divination, one must also consider the palace of Zhi Fu (值符) and the strength of the day stem to determine the speed of success.
Signifies appreciation and promotion from superiors and benefactors. It is favorable to be proactive in cooperative negotiations, signing alliances, and seeking promotions. If it falls into the three auspicious gates of Kai, Xiu, or Sheng, one can boldly pursue important positions. If the palace encounters an inauspicious gate or is constrained, cooperation may hide official disputes; it is advisable to sign and act slowly.
Seeking wealth will receive assistance from benefactors. Joint ventures, intermediary services, and wealth from weddings and celebrations are particularly prosperous. It is advisable to seize the opportunity to sign long-term contracts and expand cooperation. However, if an inauspicious gate constrains the palace, beware of contractual traps; review all terms carefully before signing.
The Wu-Gui stem combination signifies marriage, an extremely auspicious formation for love and relationships. It is favorable to choose this time for proposals, engagements, and marriage registration, often facilitated by matchmakers or benefactors. For married couples, it signifies harmony and added joy. However, under an inauspicious gate, beware of disputes over dowry or financial details.
Signifies harmonious qi and blood. Illnesses often improve with the help of good doctors. Chronic conditions show improvement with treatment and regular follow-ups. Under auspicious gates, medical treatment and surgeries are smooth. Under inauspicious gates, beware of misdiagnosis or missed diagnoses; it is advisable to get a second opinion for important conclusions.
Travelers receive assistance from companions. Business trips, appointments, and blind dates are smooth, and one often encounters helpful benefactors along the way. It is advisable to choose auspicious directions and times (Kai, Xiu, Sheng gates) for departure. Traveling with others is better than traveling alone, and visiting friends along the way may bring unexpected joy.
Lawsuits are better resolved through reconciliation than conflict. There will be intermediaries to mediate and facilitate a handshake settlement as the best strategy. Under auspicious gates, mediation can succeed, and losses can be negotiated or recovered. If an inauspicious gate constrains, beware of new disputes arising from the settlement agreement itself; ensure all terms are clearly implemented.
