It's not about your chart, it's how you use it

12.96 million chart possibilities, 7 billion people

Newbies commonly ask about whether they will become rich, when they will meet their soulmate, when they will marry, what type of soulmate they'll get, etc

There are only 12.96 million Ba Zi chart possibilities, while there are more than 7 billion people in this world. The Ba Zi chart only show potentials, not the end results. Two people born in exactly same hour, same day, same month and same year can have totally different lives.

To me personally, Ba Zi is a tool to find out your potentials and maximize your life, not a tool to do fortune-telling life story.

Let use some examples to explain:

Example 1: About wealth potentials

Mr A and Mr B born in the same hour, day, month and year (same chart). For this example, let's just say they don't have Wealth Stars in their chart, but they have favorable Eating God stars in their chart.

Mr A did BaZi reading and decided that he would write novels. Mr A studies about writing and does a lot of research, and he eventually writes and publishes his own books. He becomes rich.

Mr B didn't do Ba Zi reading, and he decided to be a businessman, which is not his talent. Mr B didn't become rich.

Two people with same chart, ending up differently, because they made different decisions about what to do with their lives. It's not about your chart, it's about how you use it.

Example 2: About happiness potentials

Miss C and Miss D born in the same hour, day, month, year (same chart).

Miss C doesn't understand the importance of Ba Zi chart compatibility for potential partners, so she often has relationship problems. She thinks that's how her life should be.

Miss D chooses a potential partner based on his chart compatibility with her chart. She decides to enter a relationship with someone whose chart has strong compatibility with hers. She has a very happy relationship.

Two people with same chart, ending up differently, because they made different decisions about what to do with their lives. It's not about your chart, it's about how you use it.

 

Example 3: About timing

Mr E and Mr F born in the same hour, day, month, year (same chart). Let's just say they're both investors.

Mr E doesn't care about Ba Zi chart. He invests in a year that's not favorable for him to do investment. He suffers a loss.

Mr F invests on a favorable year based on his Ba Zi chart. His investment gains good profit.

Two people with same chart, ending up differently, because they made different decisions about what to do with their lives. It's not about your chart, it's about how you use it.

It's not about your chart, it's about how you use it.
With those examples above, I'm sure you get the idea. Once again: It's not about your chart, it's about how you use it.

Asking the Right Questions

Most beginners and newbies frequently ask questions like these:
"This is my birth details / chart. Could you tell me about my life?"
"This is my birth details / chart. Is it good or bad?"

To get maximum benefits from a reading/consultation, you need to ask specific questions. Ba Zi (and other Chinese Metaphysics arts) is a very good tool to help goal-achieving and problem-solving. The more details you provide, the more the consultants can help you.

Career-related topic: an example of BAD question:
"I am not happy in my current job. But I don't have any job offers yet. Should I work elsewhere or do business or staying?"

First of all: Do you have any other job offers? or Do you have any business plans? If you don't, then use common sense and apply for other jobs or start a business. When you have the job offer or a business plan, then the consultant can compare which one (staying/leaving/business) is better for you.

Career-related topic: an example of GOOD question:
"I have job offer from Company B and Company C. Their details are such and such. What is the best option for me? Staying at Company A and ask for a raise or Take the offer from Company B or Company C?"

Romance-related topic: an example of BAD question:
"When will I get married?"

First of all: Do you have a serious boyfriend/girlfriend already? If not yet, then you should focus on meeting potential partners first.

Romance-related topic: example of GOOD questions:
"How do I find potential partners?"
"I have 2 potential partners. Here are our birth details. Which one is more compatible for me?"

Business-related topic: an example of BAD question:
"What sort of business is suitable for me?"

First of all: What business is available for you to start? What are your skill and knowledge? What business opportunities are available to you at the moment?

Business-related topic: an example of GOOD question:
"There are 2 business proposals I'm considering. The details are such and such. The business partners details are such and such. Which one is better for me to invest?"

A lot of newbies asking bad questions because they think BaZi (and other Chinese Metaphysics) are for mere entertainment purpose. But if you ask the good/specific questions, Ba Zi (and other Chinese Metaphysics) can help you advancing more in many aspects in life.

Heaven, Earth, Man applications

According to Chinese metaphysics, someone's Destiny is based on three things: Heaven, Earth and Man.

1. HEAVEN:
Things that we were born with. Things we can't control, like our birthday, our parents, our city of birth. The Heaven part governs our personality, physical body, our talents, our genetics.

Ba Zi (8 characters astrology, based on our birth time, day, month and year) can help us to find out what our talents are, how to maximize our health, how to find out favorable time for us to do certain things.

Application:By finding out our talent, we should be able to make better decisions related to education, job, business, relationships. For example:
- Someone who has natural sports talent can pursue his sports training and pursue a career as a sportsperson, instead of wasting time studying accounting, which he has no talent of.
- Someone who has certain weakness can consume foods that are more suitable to her body, in order to boost her health.

2. EARTH:
Our environment. This aspect is something we can partially control.We can choose to live in a more beneficial environment.

The art of Feng Shui is to match the nature energy (for example: earth magnetic) and attune it with one's individual genetic. Certain directions/locations benefit some certain people. There are certain directions/locations based on Earth Magnetic Force that affects health, relationship, thoughts and morales.

Application: Feng Shui can help us to attune our mind and body in order to find and maximize opportunities. For example:
- Sleeping in a certain sector/direction can help someone to have a much better quality sleep and boost his/her immune system.
- Having the work desk in certain sector/direction can help someone to increase his/her productivity at work.
- Setting up a marketing campaign in a certain sector/direction can help someone's popularity.

3. MAN:
Human efforts. Our decisions. Our hard work. This aspect is something we can fully control.

Application:
By knowing our own strengths and weaknesses, and by knowing other people's psyche, we can make better decisions that impact our day to day live. For example:
- Organizing a date on a favorable day for the couple. On a day that's suitable for both, the mood will be good, and the result will be favorable.
- By knowing the personality of your boss, you can set your work performance to match or exceed his/her expectation. This may make you climb the corporate ladder higher.
- By knowing the strategy of your business rival, you can set up a plan that will be beneficial for your product.


IN CONCLUSION:
Ba Zi, Feng Shui, Qi Men Dun Jia are not magic. They are fantastic tools to help you making better decisions, achieve your goals, and improve your life.
