李白

This year Li Bai is entering the Ji-Chou Direct Official great luck cycle; the Chou earthly branch forms a harmony with Zi in the year, month, and hour, turning into Earth Official energy, greatly boosting the official-star power, signaling the rise of order, discipline, and learning—an excellent time for formal early education. In the year乙巳, the乙木 Hurting Officer reveals itself, symbolizing wit, talent, and expression; the Hurting Officer indicates cleverness and eagerness to learn, matching his precocity. The巳 Fire of the year acts as a favorable timing deity, warming the chart and dispelling its winter chill, allowing his spiritual vitality to unfold. At the same time, auspicious stars such as Heavenly Nobleman and Tian De Nobleman resonate, suggesting his talents will be nourished and showcased.

This year Li Bai is in the Geng-Yin major luck cycle; the Yin in the luck pillar acts as the 'Eating God' wood, indicating talent and expression opened up. In the year乙卯, the乙木 Hurting Officer reveals itself, and together with the year pillar's heavenly stem庚金 and the major luck's stem, forms a favorable pattern 'Hurting Officer with Direct Resource,' meaning his remarkable talent (Hurting Officer) is recognized and supported by benefactors. More importantly, the earthly branch 卯 together with the day pillar辰 and major luck寅 form the 'Three-Wood gathering', a powerful Wood formation greatly boosting his creative drive and ability. The Wen Chang Nobleman blessing in the major luck also promotes fluent writing and benefits study and creation. At this time, the major luck's branches include 丙 Fire (Partial Wealth) and 戊 Earth (Seven Killings), which are the timing deities his fate needs, representing opportunities and stages. Thus, at fifteen Li Bai's poetic talent shines and gains social recognition, a perfect release of his fate energy at this moment.

This year Li Bai is in the Geng-Yin major luck; the Geng metal in the major luck governs study, thinking, and inner exploration, while the Yin wood in the 'Eating God' star represents talent's budding and release. In the year戊午, the戊土七杀 reveals itself, favorable to the Day Master Ren Water, representing pressure, self-discipline and new goals, triggering the inner 'Yang blade riding the kill' energy to push breakthroughs in studying. The午 Fire is a beneficial Wealth Star, and with the major luck's Yin wood forms a 'Half-Formation of Fire', increasing energy, meaning talent can be transformed into actual energy and opportunities (Wealth). Yet,午 Fire also clashes with 子 Water across four pillars, forming a Zi-Wu clash with Tai Sui, a year of dramatic life changes. This clash indicates moving away from the usual residence, choosing seclusion and long journeys; water-fire volatility also signals that his thoughts and experiences will undergo deep cleansing and breakthroughs.

In this year Li Bai is in the Xin-Mao great fortune; the heavenly stem of the fortune reveals Direct Seal while Hurting Officer sits in the earthly branch, forming the pattern 'Hurt Officer with Seal,' indicating his talent will be highlighted and his ideas will seek breakthroughs. The annual pillar Jiazi carries Eating God, which clashes with the stems of the year pillar and hour pillar, producing 'Eating God constrained by Seal,' signifying that old ideas and homeland constraints are broken, and an inner desire for freedom and self-expression emerges. The Zi Water is the day master Ren Water's Yang Ren, and together with the辰 earth forming a water pattern, further strengthening the Yang Ren's power, giving him the resolve for distant travel. Also, the yearly Zi clashes with the great fortune Mao branch, triggering a Zi-Mao clash, intensifying inner conflict and changes and pushing him away from the familiar homeland. The appearance of the General Star suggests he will stand out in broader skies.

This year coincides with the Xin-Mao major luck; the heavenly stem Xin Metal Direct Seal appears, signaling support from mentors, elders and benefactors. The annual pillar Yi-Chou has乙木 Hurting Officer revealed in the stems, echoing with the hour pillar's stems; the Hurting Officer represents talent, artistry and sociability, sparking Li Bai's literary thoughts and expressive desires. The yearly branch Chou Earth acts as a favorable deity, and with the Guan Sha (officials and killing) blending with Zi Water to form a 'Zi-Chou earth convergence,' turning challenging water into soil favorable for officials and killing, symbolizing harmony both internally and externally with much support. The annual star Tian Yi Gui Ren appears, marking a golden period for cultivating high-level networks. The combination of year, fortune and luck triggers Li Bai's meeting with Meng Haoran, nourishing his artistic career.

This year Ding-Mao luck shows Ding Fire Direct Wealth surfacing and aligning with the day master Ren Water, forming a strong signal of wealth and marriage luck. The annual branch Mao Wood is Hurting Officer; although it clashes with the chart's water pillars, it also activates the Heavenly Noble Star and the annual Red Phoenix Star, signaling high-level social connections and favorable romantic prospects. In Xin-Mao the big luck cycle, Direct Seal appears, denoting support from elders and family. The day master Ren Water is very strong and benefits from balance by Earth, Fire, and Wood; with this year's Ding Fire Direct Wealth and Mao Wood Hurting Officer both favorable, this marriage is not only a romantic home but also brings tangible resources via the wife's family (Fire as wealth). A pivotal moment of harmony between water and fire in his fortune.

This year marks the last year of the Xinmao Great Fortune (Direct Resource phase), with the annual stem Geng Wu. The chart shows very strong water; Earth (officials) acts as a dam, and Fire (wealth star) serves as a regulator and favorable timing. The Wu-year wealth star appears, normally favorable, but the Wu (午) earth branch clashes with the Day Master’s Zi Water, forming a fierce 'three Zi-Mao clashes against one Wu' Tai Sui clash, affecting the career palace and meaning toil, upheaval, and wishes unfulfilled. The Luck pillar's Mao Wood (Shangguan) together with the annual Wu fire forms the 'Mao-Wu clash,' undermining cooperative opportunities. At the same time, Zi-Mao mutual penalties appear in several places in the Luck pillar and chart, causing inner conflict and hidden disputes in relationships. The annual stem Geng Metal as a Partial Seal helps the Day Master but worsens the metal-cold/water-cold balance. Taken together, although there is an enterprising spirit (the year shows wealth and official powers), the turbulent environment (three clashes) and interpersonal discord prevent talents from being fully displayed; the path to public service is blocked.

This year Li Bai is in the Renchen great fortune cycle, with the day pillar Renchen hidden within the cycle, harboring ambitions yet prone to suppression; he longs for a breakthrough in his career. The year Gui You, with Dragon-You Metal combination, activates the Spouse Palace and the Direct Resource star, implying that through talent (the Direct Resource) and favorable connections (the union) one can gain fame and opportunities. Gui Water appears as the Rob Wealth star, but is bound by the month's Wu and Seven Killings, forming the 'Wu–Gui' combination into Fire, meaning he can turn competition into real opportunities and action. The year also features Heavenly Joy and Peach Blossom, favorable for displaying talent and drawing attention from higher-ups. With a chart of Yang Ren driving the Kill, there is a natural drive to win fame through talent; presenting the Ming Hall Ode illustrates the blend of talent (Hurting Officer) producing wealth (opportunities) and attempting to master the Seven Killings (power and status).

This year Li Bai is in the Renchen major fortune cycle, with the annual year乙亥. The luck cycle Renchen clashes with and constrains the day pillar, causing inner turmoil; yet the year's heavenly stem Yi Wood Hurting Officer emerges, signaling talent exposed and progress through writing. The Hurting Officer energy, paired with the year and hour stems forming a transformation with Geng Metal, can be transformed into recognized talent. The Hai Water in the year acts as the Day Master Ren Water's official status star, boosting momentum and action. The year's stars converge on Wen Chang (the Literary Star), the Word Hall, and Lu Shen (Prosperity Star), among others, greatly aiding writing, eloquence, and expression—an excellent time for creative work and public display. Seizing the opportunity to present the ode is a perfect fusion of Hurting Officer talent with Lu Shen opportunities. Although the luck cycle is in a concealed struggle, the favorable stars of the year provide a crucial career exposure.

This year Li Bai is in the Renchen great fortune, with the annual year乙亥. The luck cycle Renchen clashes with the day pillar, causing inner conflict and repeated indecision, but the year's heavenly stem Yi Wood Hurting Officer shows through, signaling talent exposed and progress through writing. Hurting Officer governs talent, expression, and innovation, and together with the year and hour stems forming a transformation with Geng Metal, his writing is likely to be recognized and transformed into opportunities. The yearly Hai Water acts as the Day Master Ren Water's official status star, boosting momentum and energy. The year's stars converge on Wen Chang, the Word Hall, and Lu Shen, bringing great fortune for writing and speech—an ideal moment to present his work. He seizes the opportunity, exemplifying the fusion of Hurting Officer talent with Lu Shen opportunities; although the Luck cycle contains hidden trials, the year's favorable stars provide a key career opportunity.

This year Li Bai enters the Renchen major fortune, which forms伏吟 with the Day Pillar Renchen, indicating inner pain, moaning, and extreme sadness, with a tendency toward bereavement events—this directly confirms the pain of losing his wife. The annual luck Dingchou features direct wealth aligning with the Day Master Renwater; the wealth star is also the wife star and is activated, signaling wife's matters. The Earthly Branch Chou clashes with the Day Branch Chen, directly striking the spouse palace, representing a shaken family foundation and a broken relationship. At the same time, the year’s Chou interacts with the Zi water across year, month, and hour pillars, moving the entire pattern, signaling a major change in living conditions and hence relocating with his children. The Ding fire (wealth) and Chou earth (official) are favorable stars, concealing opportunities for career and wealth, so in his grief he did not abandon his pursuit of public service; relocating to Nanyang was to seek new development.

This year coincides with the Renchen major fortune and the Gengchen annual; the major fortune Renchen forms伏吟 with the Day Master Renchen, and the annual branch辰辰 self-punishment indicates self-conflict and loneliness. At the same time, both the major fortune and the annual luck are in a water-rich phase; Bi Jie energy peaks, enhancing his desire for freedom. The heavenly stem Geng metal incidental print resonates with the year stem, amplifying his tendency toward being extraordinary and seeking spiritual sustenance. The presence of the noble star and benefactors appears, matching that this is a time of talent accumulation and spiritual resonance with like-minded people. Retreating to Culai Mountain with friends, drinking and composing poetry, and reveling in landscapes, is a release and sublimation of this powerful yet tangled inner energy, illustrating a libertine stance within the Yang Blade with Killing pattern as a way to cope with worldly pressures.

This year falls under the Renwu annual luck, and with the month pillar Wu Zi forming a heavenly clash and earthly clash. The Wu Fire is direct wealth and also a lucky place for Bing Fire as the favorable use deity, representing opportunities and fame. The major fortune Gui-Si places the Si Fire as partial wealth, and aligns with the annual Wu Fire, forming a fire pattern. The favorable use of fire and earth energy converge, signaling a tremendous opportunity for career takeoff. The annual clash challenges the month pillar, but the chart is of the Yang Blade driving Sha type, and the 'righteous qi' remains unpunished, enabling possible success and promotion amid upheaval and conflict. Simultaneously, auspicious stars such as Tian Yi, Tian De, Yue De are among the benefactor stars, and the endorsements by Princess Yuzhen and He Zhizhang fit this sign.

This year Li Bai is in the Gui-Si great luck, with the year Gui-Wei. In astrology, this event embodies a perfect union of talent and opportunity.

1. Talent on display (Hurting Officer unleashes talent): The hour pillar contains Yi Wood as Hurting Officer; the annual Wei Earth harbors Yi Wood and Hurting Officer, triggering a surge of inspiration that enables the creation of a timeless masterpiece.

2. Opportunity arrives (Wealth Star harmonizes the timing): Li Bai’s BaZi favors Fire and Earth to warm the situation. The luck pillar Si Fire (Partial Wealth) and the annual Wei Earth (Official) are favorable deities. The Si Fire Wealth Star represents the emperor’s favor and the palace environment; the Wei Earth Official Star represents official settings and imperial commands. The interaction of Wu-Gui with the Fire element turns a potential obstacle (ill fortune) into a favorable opportunity to display talent and gain renown.

3. Benefactors’ support (Heavenly assistance): Both luck and the annual star carry the Tian Yi Gui Ren, indicating support from high-status people. This year’s benefactor luck peaks, allowing him to be summoned by Tang Xuanzong to take on commissions, elevating him to the court’s central literary stage.

That year falls under Gui-Si Rob Wealth major luck, with Gui Water as the forbidden deity, intensifying the already strong self- and companion-star influences, signaling more competition and misfortune. The annual Jia-Shen clashes with the month pillar’s stem, directly opposing the Eating God (talent/expression), weakening talent expression and straining relations with the powerful. In the earthly branches, the luck’s Si Fire and the annual Shen Metal form tense interactions: Si Fire is a favorable wealth star representing imperial favor and material rewards; Shen is a damaging star that, when clashed, can negate favorable influences. Moreover, the year’s and fate’s pillars form a strong Water pattern (Shen-Zi-Chen), amplifying Water across the chart and maximizing the power of the Bi Jie (the “rob wealth/competing forces”). With Water abundant, Earth (official power) is overwhelmed, suggesting the position and ties with the court (Xuanzong) become untenable, and the career at court dissolves. In short, this marks a severe upheaval driven by the Yang Ren driving the Kill pattern in unfavorable luck, with the Seven Kill star overwhelmed by water.

That year Li Bai is in the Gui-Si great luck, with Jia-Shen annual. His day master Ren Water is exceptionally strong, like a vast ocean, and he most needs Earth to dam the waters and Fire to warm the environment. The annual Shen and luck Si align, and their union converts into water, driving the four pillars (year, month, day, hour) into a Three-Water pattern (Shen-Zi-Chen) at a water-peak. This signals a deep spiritual pursuit and inner expansion, contrasting with worldly competition and material concerns (Fire as wealth). Meanwhile, the luck’s Si Fire (fire) and Wu Earth (Seven Kill) energies are precisely the favorable harmonizing and governing stars his BaZi requires; though absorbed by the water pattern, their appearance drives him toward a path demanding spiritual discipline and detachment from worldly ties. The Hua Gai star and Taiji Nobleman on the year/day pillars are activated by the annual academy and Taiji Nobleman, signaling a strong inclination to explore life’s mysteries and embrace spiritual belief. Receiving the talisman embodies this dynamic: the water energy is too strong and needs Earth to restrain, while Fire warms, yet the water pattern ultimately governs. In reality this manifests as religious ritual and belief in immortals to settle his exuberant soul.
