It greatly strengthens the day master, boosting energy to take on responsibilities. The annual luck is 己巳, with 己土 as the direct seal, signaling support for studies, paperwork, and elders, resonating with the day pillar to form a favorable Seal-Star pattern. The Earthly Branch 巳 Fire represents 官杀, but together with the major luck 申 Metal it blends into Water, transforming the Fire into productive Water that nourishes intellect and study. The annual luck brings Tian Yi Gui Ren and Tai Ji Gui Ren, indicating timely help and inspiration at critical moments. The combined influence of the major and annual luck creates a favorable 官印相生 pattern, with the Seal star aided, academic progress flows smoothly and admission to a prestigious school becomes a natural outcome.

In the year of Ding-Chou, the heavenly stem Ding (Fire) interacts with the month's Ren Water Eating God, forming the Eating God meets Official combination, signaling strong career opportunities and academic achievements, favorable for recognition and support from official or authoritative institutions in one's field. Meanwhile, the year's earthly branch Chou is the Direct Seal and, in harmony with the hour pillar's Zi Water, further activates the Seal star, implying support from elders/mentors such as Yan Jici and Madame Curie. The Major Luck and the year pillar show Heaven–Earth clashes, indicating major life changes, such as going overseas and starting a new life chapter. The year's fortune gathers Noble People: Heavenly Virtue, Heavenly Official, and Auspicious Benefactors, marking peak social connections and opportunities and making it a golden period for study and laying the foundations of a career.

The year is Geng-Chen, with the heavenly stem Geng metal and the Bi Jian (peer) energy manifesting, favorable for the Day Master and representing full display and recognition of personal ability.

The ten-year luck's heavenly stem Wu reveals Indirect Resource, indicating strong energy for scholarly study and deep thinking. The year's heavenly stem Bing Fire clashes with the Day Master Geng, yet drives the day pillar's Wu Fire as Official, forming the noble pattern of Official and Indirect Resource generating, turning pressure into official recognition and honors from the Academy.

The year's deities include Heavenly Virtue Noble Person and Moon Virtue Noble Person blessing, the Hua Gai star shines, indicating unique talents and scholarly inspiration that enable breakthroughs and even international awards.

This year aligns with the Wu-Wu Pianyin major luck cycle; the ten-year cycle’s heavenly stem Wu indicates Pianyin, signaling support and appointment in academia, research, and at the national level. The Wuzi year strengthens Pianyin again and, together with the year pillar Gui-Chou forming a heaven-and-earth double union, is a highly auspicious sign implying strong national recognition and summons. Inner and outer affairs go smoothly, making it an excellent time to return to serve the country. Although the luck pillar's earthly branch Wu clashes with the annual branch Zi, triggering apparent turmoil, the pattern of Official-Seal synergy is activated—the authority (官) and academia (印) energies combine, perfectly matching the dual roles of professor and director. Moreover, the presence of the Heaven Official Nobleman and other auspicious stars suggests a grand career plan with bright prospects and a timely return to hold a key post and undertake pioneering responsibilities.

This year, the subject enters the Wu-Wu Pianyin major luck cycle; the ten-year cycle's heavenly stem Wu is Pianyin, while the earthly branch Wu is the Official star, forming an advantageous Official-Seal synergy. The yearly branch Yin and the ten-year branch Wu form a Three-Harmony Fire formation, greatly strengthening the official star. Fire generates Earth (Seal), creating a strong Official-Seal synergy.

The combination of luck pillar and yearly stars also activates Heaven Official Nobleman and Marshal star, foretelling a grand career plan and leadership. The year's stem Geng indicates support from peers and teams, fitting the institute's founding and collaborative nature.

This year, Qian Sanqiang follows the Wu-Wu Pianyin major luck cycle. The ten-year cycle's Wu earth represents Pianyin; the year pillar is Gengyin, with Pianyin pattern favoring the presence of Zhengguan to elevate prestige. The yearly Xinmao indicates peer energy and collaboration; the Earth's branch Mao is Direct Wealth, and with the month pillar Xu forming fire, the Fire becomes the Official Star, meaning leadership through teamwork and professional ability translates career goals into real power and responsibilities. The year’s noble stars—Heaven Official Nobleman and WenChang Nobleman—along with the natal and ten-year cycles' other auspicious stars (Heaven Official Nobleman, Marshal Star, Blessing Nobleman) all align, signaling leadership recognized and appointed by authorities. The chart itself is a Pianyin pattern, favoring Zhengguan; in this cycle and year the Official-Seal energy is strongly activated, allowing the subject to wield great power in his field and shoulder heavy duties.

This year the natal chart sits in the 戊午 major luck with the year pillar癸巳. The Da Yun stem戊土偏印 combines with the year stem癸水伤官 to form Fire (戊癸合火), the Fire energy that the chart favors as the Direct Official. The year's branch巳 Fire is the Seven Kill, aligning with the Day Master午 Fire Official and strengthening the官星. The year and luck form a forward-angled alignment, indicating that effort brings above-expected rewards and steady promotion. The chart itself is a偏印 structure, and it is favorable for the Official to produce 印, creating the noble pattern of 官印相生. The Heavenly Official noble person appears this year, corresponding to holding a key post and planning the national academic system. Although午火 in the luck pillar clashes with the day pillar午 Fire, creating pressure and internal friction, it also stimulates the官星’s action, enabling the person to take on heavy responsibilities in complex institutional construction.

This year falls in the戊午 Da Yun, with the Da Yun stem戊土偏印 aligned with the year's乙木正財, signaling that scholarly work (印) will be recognized officially and yield tangible rewards (財). The year乙未 and the day pillar庚午 form a powerful Heaven-Earth convergence (庚乙合, 午未合), a highly auspicious sign of harmony and strong support. The 午未合 Fire strengthens the Official (正官) power, aligning with the chart's官印相生 structure. 未土 serves as the Seal Treasury, gathering positive印 energy and bringing the天乙贵人, symbolizing recognition by the top academic authorities. Despite clashes with Tai Sui (冲太岁) and penalties (刑太岁), these conflicts strike at the pillar’s foundation but ultimately foster independence from family background, marking a peak in personal achievement.

This year the person enters the 丁巳 正官 big luck, with 丁火正官 uncovering and combining with 月干 壬水食神 to form the pattern “Eating God meets Official,” signaling that talent meets official opportunity—strong sign of career ascent. The year pillar 丙申, with 丙 Fire as 七杀 clashing against the Day Master 庚金, signifies heavy responsibilities and pressure; however, the 巳申 combination forms Water, transforming pressure into skill (食伤). The申金 in the year pillar acts as the Day Master’s 禄神, enhancing capability and responsibility. The year also encounters the 国印贵人, indicating formal government appointment and recognition. The overall pattern of 官印相生 is strongly activated this year, matching the notion of entering public service through technical expertise and commanding national key equipment.

This year falls at the closing year of the 丁巳 official-star major fortune cycle. The ten-year heavenly stem is 丁火 (Official Star), which aligns with the 月干壬水 (Food God) to form the 'Official Star Meets Food God' configuration, meaning the individual's talent (Food God) is recognized and summoned by the state's mission (Official Star), a strong signal of the ability to achieve and contribute. In the Jia Chen year, the heavenly stem Jia Wood (pian cai) clashes with the day master Geng Jin, appearing turbulent, but Jia Wood is also a helpful deity for adjusting the chart, capable of easing earth to generate fire, keeping the mission chart flowing. The Earthly Branch Chen adds the印, strengthening the '官印相生' pattern. The yearly star includes the 'National Seal' (Guo Yin), indicating official recognition and major achievements. However, the Chen Earth of the year clashes with the Xu Earth of the month, triggering a monthly palace movement and clashing with the year's Chou Earth, forming the 'Chou-Xu-Chen' three-punishment pattern, foretelling that after reaching a peak, the environment will undergo drastic changes and separation. This perfectly explains why, after achieving brilliant success, he was immediately moved from the core and entered a new phase of life.

This year falls in the opening year of the 丙辰 Seven Killings major fortune. The ten-year heavenly stem is 丙火 (Seven Killings) and acts as an inauspicious deity for the chart, directly restraining the day master Geng Jin, symbolizing immense external pressure and challenges. The earthly branch of the fortune, 辰, clashes with the month pillar 戌, forming a辰戌相冲, a disruptive clash that destabilizes life foundations, causing career and environment to change drastically and forcing him to leave home. The yearly pillar 丙午 intensifies the Seven Killings fire, amplifying the pressure. The earthly branch 午 and the day pillar 午 form 午午自刑 (self-punishment), and they clash with the hour pillar 子, resulting in internal turmoil as family and career are affected. The chart favors metal and earth and dislikes fire; this year fire is dominant, with the inauspicious deity rampant, marking a low point in life. Although there are benevolent influences like Tian De and Yue De, they cannot withstand the era's torrent, and one must endure in silence.
