The Sixth Line of the Hexagram of Cultivation: The tiger watches intently, its desire follows closely, no blame. Xiang Yu faced the army at Gaixia, Han Xin entered the Weiyang Palace.

謂虎視課者，乃柔日也，昴昨課者，乃剛日也，緣雞鳴則仰首，虎視則俯首也。如柔日虎視卦中，天將又乘白虎者，譬如前後皆有猛虎，縱勇夫至於此時，亦難施力，凡占豈免至驚至危乎。

The "Tiger Watching" divination method arises on a yin day, while the "Bright Star" method arises on a yang day. The imagery is that when a rooster crows, it lifts its head, and when a tiger stares at someone, it lowers its head. One lifts and one lowers, corresponding to the two methods of taking a divination based on yin and yang. If the "Tiger Watching" method is used on a yin day and the Heavenly General is riding the White Tiger, it is like having tigers crouching both in front and behind. Even a brave person would find it impossible to exert strength. In such a case, any divination would inevitably lead to extreme fear and danger.

如丁亥日夜將，寅加亥作白虎在末傳，丁丑日辰加未夜將，又辰加丑晝將，辛卯日子加卯夜將，辛未日亥加戌晝將，雖白虎臨戌亥，是空亡，緣臨干上乃白虎臨身，兼中傳並干上是兩重虎，又支上乘申，及初末申亦作白虎之本位，乃支干三傳乘其虎五，凡值此課，驚天動地，而凶禍難免也。

Examples include: On a Dinghai day, using the night general,寅 is placed on亥 and rides the White Tiger, falling in the final transmission; on a Dingchou day, the day branch is placed on未 using the night general, and there is also辰 placed on丑 using the day general; on a Xinmao day,子 is placed on卯 using the night general; on a Xinwei day,亥 is placed on戌 using the day general. In the last case, although the White Tiger is present on戌 and亥, which are in the position of Kongwang, it still counts as the White Tiger being on the day stem because it is on top of the day stem; the middle transmission and the stem also have two White Tigers; the day branch is occupied by申, and the initial and final transmissions also have申, which are the original positions of the White Tiger. Thus, there are five instances of the White Tiger's presence on the stem, branch, and three transmissions. Whenever such a situation occurs, events will be shocking and disastrous, and misfortune is difficult to avoid.

及有戊寅日丑加酉旦占，雖是剛日，亦如前詳，俗諺云，雙拳不敵四手，何況逢剛猛虎乎。履六三咥人凶，九四訴訴終吉。外有己巳日干上申，初傳申，中傳申又上虎視卦，凡占既歷四重虎穴，豈免至驚至危。又己酉日第四課白虎未加申，末傳又是申，又是虎視卦體，凡占亦如值三虎。又癸未日乃虎視卦，初傳申，中傳寅亦是虎，末傳又是申，一如四虎。乙未日寅加辰亦是虎，又是虎視卦，未乘白虎臨酉，酉為年命者更凶。

There is also the case of a Wuyin day with Chou added to You in the morning. Although it is a strong day, it should still be interpreted as explained before. As the saying goes, two fists cannot overcome four hands, and何况 it is encountering a fierce tiger. The sixth line of the third hexagram in The Zhou Changes, the Fulfillment Hexagram, says that when a tiger bites, it is ominous. The ninth line of the fourth hexagram says that if one remains cautious, it will eventually lead to good fortune. This is exactly what is meant. Additionally, on a Jisi day, the day stem is Shen, the first transmission is Shen, the middle transmission is also Shen, and it coincides with the Tiger Watching lesson. When divining matters, it is as if passing through four tiger dens in succession, how could it not be extremely dangerous? On a Jiyou day, the fourth transmission has the White Tiger riding Wei added to Shen, and the final transmission is also Shen. This is the form of the Tiger Watching lesson, and when divining matters, it is as if encountering three tigers. On a Guiwei day, it is already the Tiger Watching lesson. The first transmission is Shen, the middle transmission is Yin, both of which are tiger positions, and the final transmission is also Shen, which is the same as passing through four tigers. On a Yiwei day, Yin is added to Chen, which is also a tiger, and it coincides with the Tiger Watching lesson. The Wei position is occupied by the White Tiger above You. If You is the birth year of the person being divined, it would be even more ominous.

謂干上乘干前一辰，支上乘支前一辰，故名一在羅地網，凡得此卦，網羅兜裹身宅，諸占豈能亨快，此例如進連茹課中多有，不必細具。如甲申日干上卯、支上酉，餘仿此。

The stem on the day stem is the previous earthly branch, and the branch on the day branch is also the previous earthly branch. This is called Tian Luo Di Wang. Whenever such a situation occurs, the Luo and Wang trap both the person and their home, making it impossible for any divination to be smooth or clear. This pattern is common in classes like Jin Ru and Lian Ru, so there is no need to list them all. For example, on Jiashen day, the stem is卯 and the branch is酉, and the same applies to other days.

凡占止利守己，則為支干乘旺，倘若動謀，變為羅網纏其身宅，及作羊刃之煞，傷其身而毀其宅，又乘凶將，其禍尤甚，如占人年命上神沖破支干之網，始無咎也，或遇空亡亦名破羅破網。

Whenever this divination is cast, it is only favorable for maintaining one's current position and adhering to one's proper role. At that time, the heavenly stem and earthly branch spirits are still strong and effective. However, once there is a thought of action or endeavor, those two spirits turn into a net that entangles both the person and their dwelling, transforming into Yangren, aInauspicious Sha, which harms the person's body and destroys their home. If further compounded by凶将, the misfortune becomes even more severe. Only when the spirits associated with the person's birth year and destiny can break through this net of heavenly stem and earthly branch, will disaster be avoided. Alternatively, if the spirits on the heavenly stem and earthly branch exactly meet Kongwang, it is also called breaking the net and breaking the web.

干上乘支之網，支上乘干之羅者例，凡占事我欲網羅他，他已網羅我，互相闇昧，如庚寅日干上卯、支上酉，餘干四絕體中多有。值干之天羅地網，有官人主丁父服；值支之天羅地網，主丁母服。丁丑日干上寅為互網，又干上申為皆網，癸未日干上寅申，己丑日干上寅申，庚寅日干上卯酉，丙申日干上午，庚申日干上酉，戊申日干上午，壬寅日干上子。

There is another type of intersecting pattern: the day stem is covered by the net of the day branch, and the day branch is covered by the net of the day stem. When predicting events, if I am trying to entangle the other party, the other party has already entangled me. Both sides are secretly scheming. For example, on a Gengyin day, the stem is卯 and the branch is酉, and this type of lesson is common in the Four Extremes structure. If the net appears on the day stem side, it indicates the official will suffer the loss of his father. If the net appears on the day branch side, it indicates the loss of the mother. In addition, on a Dingchou day, if the stem shows寅 it is mutual net, if it shows申 it is common net; on a Guiwei day, the stem shows寅 or申; on a Jichou day, the stem shows寅 or申; on a Gengyin day, the stem shows卯 or酉; on a Bingshen day, the stem shows午; on a Gengshen day, the stem shows酉; on a Wushen day, the stem shows午; on a Renshen day, the stem shows子.

如甲申日未加寅，乃墓神覆日，如占人本命又是未生，乃名天網自裹，凡值此課，必是自招其禍，非干他人暗算，所作昏晦，如處雲霧，常被揶揄，必是命運災衰，星辰不順，惟宜醮謝本命星位，庶免前殃，餘干仿此，或是用起並時同剋日課，又值本命作日墓神，尤為凶甚。

For example, on a Jiashen day, if the hexagram is placed on the寅 (Yin) position, the未 (Wei) is theTomb Spirit (mound spirit) of Jia wood and covers the day stem. If the person's birth hour is also未, this is called 天网自裹 (heavenly net enclosing oneself). Whenever such a divination occurs, misfortune is surely self-inflicted, unrelated to others' secret schemes. The person's actions are unclear and confused, as if in a fog, and they often face mockery and ridicule. This is mostly due to a decline in fate and unfavorable stars. It is advisable to perform a ritual offering and pray to one's own birth star to avoid impending calamity. Other day stems should be treated similarly. If the initiating transmission and the time of divination both attack the day stem, and the person's birth hour is exactly theTomb Spirit of the day stem, the situation becomes even more dangerous.

丁神厭目格：如乙巳日未加乙，乃墓神覆日，如夜占上乘塍蛇，如四月占，又為月厭，亦是飛廉大煞，亦是天目煞，又乘旬內之丁神，如占人未為本命，必是夜多怪夢而至身位災衰，亦宜禱禳上天星煞，庶免極凶。餘甲辰旬中，遇未加支於四月占，皆如前說，必宅中多怪現形，蓋未為丁神乘厭目等凶煞故也。

The divination pattern called "Ding Shen Yan Mu" is as follows: For example, if the day is Yisi (乙巳) and the hour is Wu (未) added to Yi (乙), then Wu is the tomb of Yi wood, which covers the day stem. When casting the horoscope at night, this position is occupied by Teng Snake. If the course is cast in the fourth month, then Wu is the month's Aversion, and also serves as Fei Lian Da Sha and Tian Mu Sha. Additionally, Wu is the hidden Ding Shen of this week. If the person's birth day is exactly Wu, then at night they will have many strange dreams, leading to a decline in their fortune. They should pray to heaven and perform rituals to remove these stars and evils, to avoid extreme misfortune. In the Jiachen week, if the course is cast in the fourth month and Wu is added to the day branch, then the same interpretation applies. The family home will often experience strange phenomena, because Wu is both the hidden Ding Shen and is accompanied by the month's Aversion and other evil stars like Tian Mu.

如丙午日干上寅、支上卯，此支干全生，豈宜俱空，其第二、第四課卻全見鬼賊。如壬午日干上申，雖為日之長生，奈是旬空，既見生不生，不如無生，不免尋初傳巳火為財，又坐空鄉，又為破碎，及至破費錢財，豈宜中傳見寅為脫氣，及支上卯木併力而盜脫其日干之氣，以此推之，得之不足，費之有餘，亦喻所得不償所費。

For example, on a Bingwu day, the stem is寅 and the branch is卯. Both寅 and卯 are wood that nourish the Bing fire. Normally, both the stem and branch would be nourished, but these two are both in the empty position. Meanwhile, the second and fourth lessons both show official ghosts and thieves. Another example is on a Renwu day, the stem is申. Normally,申 is the place of growth for Ren water, but it is in the empty position of the ten-day cycle. Although it appears to nourish, it fails to actually nourish, so it is worse than having no nourishment at all. Therefore, one has to turn to the first transmission's巳 fire for wealth, but the巳 fire is also in the empty position and carries the broken-up evil sign, resulting in a loss of money. Moreover, the middle transmission shows寅, which drains the energy of the Ren water, and the day branch's卯 wood also drains the day stem. Continuing this reasoning, the gains are insufficient while the losses are excessive, resulting in the amount received being less than the amount spent.

又如癸未日干上申金，乃長生作空，支上寅木乃脫氣卻實。又戊子日干上午雖是生氣，奈是旬空，既生我者空亡，豈宜三傳寅卯辰皆鬼，引起干午反為羊刃，其凶難免，如亥子本命稍緩。

For example, on a Guiwei day, the metal Shen in the heavenly stem is the growth of the water Gui, but it falls into emptiness; the wood Yin in the earthly branch specifically drains the energy of the water Gui, yet it is solid and not empty. One side is empty and the other is solid, resulting only in loss and no gain. Another example is on a Wuzi day, the fire Wu in the heavenly stem is originally the life qi of the earth Wu, but it also falls into the旬空. The beneficial element is already empty, yet the three transmissions are arranged with寅,卯,辰, all of which are officials that harm the earth Wu, and they also trigger the fire Wu in the heavenly stem, turning it into Yangren, making misfortune unavoidable. If the person's birth day is Hai or Zi, the凶势 can be slightly eased.

又癸未日丑加巳，三傳金局生日，豈可初末空亡，獨留中傳丑土不空，並晝將貴勾常土將盡來克干。又乙巳日干上卯空亡，情願以干加支而受脫也。以上總皆生空，脫與鬼皆實論耳。

For example, on a Guiwei day, the Chou is placed on Si, and the three transmissions form a metal formation which could support the day stem. Unfortunately, both the first and final transmissions fall into empty positions, leaving only the middle transmission's Chou soil not empty. Meanwhile, the nobleman, Gou Chen, and Tai Chang in the daytime general all belong to soil, and together they all attack the day stem. Another example is on a Yisi day, where the卯 on the stem falls into Kongwang. In this case, it is better to place the day stem on the day branch, even if it means a slight loss of energy. All these examples illustrate the same principle: what nourishes me falls into emptiness, while what drains or attacks me is fully present.

得少失多格：如甲寅日干上卯，乃日之旺神，三傳辰巳午，彼此引入初傳，辰乃干上卯之六害，中末盜氣，此所謂貪他一粒米，失卻半年糧也。

This pattern is called "gaining little but losing much." For example, on a Jiayin day, the stem is卯, which is the Prosperity position for Jia wood. It should be strong. However, the three transmissions are arranged as Chen, Si, and Wu, which gradually pull the day stem away. The first transmission Chen forms the sixth harmful relationship with the stem卯, and the middle and final transmissions Si and Wu, being fire, further steal the strength of the wood. This is like wanting to gain a single grain of rice but ending up losing half a year's food supply.

如戊申日干上未，三傳子寅辰，初傳雖是日財，奈坐戌土之上受克，又乘白虎，緣戀此驚危之財，引入中末鬼鄉，尤幸鬼亦空亡，凡占乃應俗諺云：爭似不來還不往，亦無歡笑亦無愁。

For example, on a Wushen day, the heavenly stem is Wei. The three transmissions are Zi, Yin, and Chen. Although the first transmission Zi water is the wealth of the Wutu stem, it is seated on Xu earth and thus suffers from being overcome, and it is also accompanied by the White Tiger. Just because of this dangerous wealth, it leads the person into the realm of official ghosts in the middle and final transmissions. Fortunately, the official ghosts themselves fall into Kongwang, so the danger does not actually affect the person. Anyone who receives this divination should understand the old saying: it is better not to come or go at all, rather than come and go in vain. There will be neither joy nor sorrow.

又丙寅日申加巳，夜乘蛇夾克財，中末空陷。丁卯日酉加丁，晝乘朱雀夾克財，中末鬼空。癸未日巳加子作財，乃傳墓入墓，中末雖是日鬼，緣貪墓其巳火不能為鬼。己酉日亥加己作財受克，雖三傳克干，奈中末空亡。壬寅日返吟，棄干上空財就初末脫氣，幸受申生干也。壬寅日伏吟，干上雖逢日之祿，如晝占乃乘天空，中值脫，末財又空。已上財祿俱作空被克，總無實得之意也。

There are several other similar cases. On a Bingyin day, when the hour is Shen and it is placed over Si, during the night divination, the upper and lower trigrams are both Teng Snake, enclosing the wealth god in the middle and thus defeating it. The middle and final transmissions also fall into Kongwang. On a Dingmao day, when the hour is You and it is placed over Ding, during the day divination, it is accompanied by Vermilion Bird, enclosing and defeating the wealth god. The official ghosts in the middle and final transmissions fall into Kongwang. On a Guiwei day, when the hour is Si and it is placed over Zi, taking the wealth, it is a case of entering the grave from the grave. Although the middle and final transmissions are official ghosts of the day stem, since the fire of Si is attached and enters the grave, it cannot become a ghost. On a RENYIN day, when the hour is Hai and it is placed over Ji, the wealth god is defeated. Although the three transmissions come to defeat the day stem, it is fortunate that the middle and final transmissions fall into Kongwang. In the case of the RENYIN day's return chant, we have to abandon the empty wealth on the day stem, turning instead to the leakage in the initial and final transmissions. Fortunately, the final transmission of Shen can still nourish the day stem. In the case of the RENYIN day's hidden chant, although the day stem meets the禄神 (favorable god) of the day stem, during the day divination it is accompanied by Tian Kong, the middle transmission meets leakage, and the final transmission's wealth falls into Kongwang. In all these cases, wealth and禄神 are either falling into Kongwang or being defeated, and in the end, there is no real attainment.

謂辰之華蓋作干之墓神，臨於干上發用是也。凡占身位，多昏多晦，卒難明白；或遭冤枉，難以分訴；占行人不歸，盡在彼處不如意也。如壬申，壬辰二日辰加壬為用；乙亥、乙未二日未加乙為用。

The concept of Huagai covering the sun refers to the situation where the hour stem that serves as Huagai is also theTomb Spirit (mound spirit) of the day stem, and it is placed above the day stem, serving as the initiating transmission. When divining one's own situation, it often indicates confusion and obscurity, making it difficult to explain clearly; or it may indicate being wronged without any resolution. For those who are away, they are unwilling to return because they find things unsatisfactory in their current location. For example, on days of Renshen and Renchen, the hour of Chen is placed over the day stem Ren and serves as the initiating transmission; on days of Yihai and Yiwei, the hour of Wei is placed over the day stem Yi and serves as the initiating transmission.

如丙午日戌加午，乃是支墓，如占家宅，誠為宅舍不亨快，如用戌為月將，反名太陽輝照家宅，其屋必向陽而明朗，不然常有上人光飾尤勝。如太歲、貴人入宅更美，其餘占彼我，乃我不利而利於他人，以支屬他人也。

For example, on a Bingwu day, if Wu is placed on the Wu branch, Wu is the墓 of the day's branch, which indicates that the house is dull and stagnant. However, if Wu is the month general, then Wu represents the sun, and the sun shines upon the house, making it bright and sunny. Even if not, there are often people above who bring it more light and brilliance, which is even better. If the year's master and the nobleman also enter the house position, it is even more favorable. However, when divining matters between me and others, this situation is unfavorable for me but favorable for the other party, since the day's branch originally belongs to the other side.

又如乙卯日子將卯時，此乃太陽作貴人而生宅，如占宅下必有寶藏，或是子年占之，其年必產貴子，其子雖是旬空，緣太陽乃懸空之象，不畏空亡故也。餘論太陽惟忌坐於夜方而不可用，或太陽臨身甚宜辨明雪恨。

For example, on a Yimao day, if the month general is determined as Zi and the divination is started at the Mao hour, the sun is exactly acting as the nobleman to generate and assist the house position. When divining about the family residence, there must be buried treasure beneath the house. If the divination is done in the Zi year, there will certainly be a noble son born in that year. Although Zi falls within the旬空, the sun itself is an image of something high in the sky and is not afraid of kongwang. In general, when discussing the sun, it is only disliked when it is located in the direction of night, at which time it is not suitable to use. If the sun is in the same position as the subject, it is most suitable to take the opportunity to clear up grievances and wash away old hatreds.

謂六辛日丑加戌晝將乘白虎作墓神，內辛酉日丑為空亡尤可畏也，至辛巳日可畏愈甚，緣丑作丁神乘虎作墓，占病必死，諸占且昏且迷，又凶惡，防讎人冤執而遭捶楚。如冬占稍輕，緣丑至冬旺可作庫說。

On six days beginning with Xin, the Chou branch is placed on the Xu branch, and using the daytime general hour, the Chou branch rides on the White Tiger and is also theTomb Spirit of Xin metal. On Xin You day, the Chou branch exactly falls on Kongwang, which is especially ominous; on Xin Si day it is even worse, because at that time the Chou branch is not only the spirit of the current ten-day period's Ding, but also rides on the White Tiger and serves as theTomb Spirit. If this is used for divination about illness, it indicates certain death; for other matters, it suggests confusion and ominous outcomes, and one should also be cautious of false accusations, being arrested, and receiving corporal punishment. If the divination is cast in winter, the ominous effect is somewhat less severe, because Chou is strong in winter and can be considered as the treasury of wealth.

外有六乙日晝貴順行，雖是未乘白虎，上有臨行年本命上者，即無加干者也，夏占稍輕，緣未旺亦為庫也，餘干無此例。

The other six Yi days, when the day's merit moves in the daytime in a favorable direction, the Wei hexagram is also riding on the White Tiger. However, it only appears on the person's age year and birth year, not on the day stem. In this situation, if the divination starts in summer, the凶 (malevolent) influence is slightly lighter, because Wei is strong in summer and can still be considered as a repository. This case does not apply to other heavenly stems.

虎鬼加干格：如六己日卯加己夜、六壬日戌加壬晝夜、六癸日戌加癸晝，除乙辛二日及甲丙戊庚壬丁己癸八日無之。

The term "Hǔ Guǐ Jiā Gān" refers to a situation where the White Tiger deity is combined with the Day Stem, and this deity happens to be the official ghost that overcomes the Day Stem, directly pressing upon it. For example, on the sixth day of Jǐ (己), the branch Mǎo (卯) is added to Jǐ; this applies both during the day and night. On the sixth day of Rén (壬), the branch Xū (戌) is added to Rén, and this applies both day and night. On the sixth day of Guǐ (癸), the branch Xū (戌) is added to Guǐ, and this applies during the day. Except for the days of Yǐ (乙) and Xīn (辛), which have special cases, the eight days of Jiā (甲), Bīng (丙), Wù (戊), Gēng (庚), Rén (壬), Dīng (丁), Jǐ (己), and Guǐ (癸) do not all possess this pattern.

此例有二等，一者干墓臨支，二者支墓臨支，以上二例占宅必有伏尸鬼禍或有形響，如又克宅者為的。假令乙亥日未為干墓臨支而克支，如晝占上乘白虎，其餘乙未日伏吟，並乙酉日未加酉，雖是墓虎臨支而不克支，外有辛未辛酉二日雖是丑加支，緣不克支稍輕，其墓作月將不在此限。

This pattern divides into two categories: one is when the day stem's墓 (burial) is located on the day branch, and the other is when the day branch itself has its墓 on the day branch. In both cases, when predicting the household, there must be buried bones causing disturbances or constant sounds and shadows seen. If theTomb Spirit (burial deity) further attacks the house, the prediction becomes more accurate. For example, on a Yihai day, Wei is the burial of Yi wood, which is located on the day branch Hai and attacks the water of Hai. During the day, it also takes the White Tiger. Other examples include theHidden Chant (hidden chant) lesson on Yiwei day and the case of Wei added to You on Yiyou day, which although also involve theTomb Spirit with the White Tiger on the branch, do not attack the branch. Similarly, on Xinwei and Xinyou days, although Chou is added to the day branch, since it does not attack the branch, the凶 (evil) aspect is slightly lighter. However, cases where theTomb Spirit itself is the month general are not included in this category.

第二等者，假令丙子日辰加子晝占，乃支墓臨支而克支乘虎，如占家宅值此課者，必家中有孝服動或有喪吊，其年內必有停喪，尤詳其墓屬何類，而言何人死。又丁亥日辰加亥夜。

The second type of example: On a day with the day branch Bingzi, the branch Zi is the墓 of the stem Bing. When the branch Zi is placed on top of the day branch and it is able to overcome the day branch, and it is also accompanied by the White Tiger, if this is used for divination about the family, there will certainly be mourning events in the family, or there will be visits for funerals, and there will certainly be a case of a body being kept in the house during the same year. One should also carefully examine which of the Six Relations the墓 god belongs to, in order to determine who will die. There is also the case of a day with the day branch Dinghai, with the branch Hai placed on top of it, and this is also of this type.

虎鬼克支格：緣支鬼乘白虎而克支者，例如壬子日戌加子晝，丁丑日寅加丑夜，壬寅日返吟夜，癸卯日申加卯夜，壬午日返吟晝，乙未己未卯加未夜，丙申日午加申晝，癸亥日戌加亥晝夜皆乘白虎。

The concept of "White Tiger Ghost Conquering the Branch" refers to the official ghost that conquers the day branch riding on the White Tiger, and then turning back to conquer the branch. For example, on a Renzi day, the戌 is added to the子, and it is a daytime divination; on a Dingchou day, the寅 is added to the丑, and it is a nighttime divination; on a Renyin day, it is a reverse lesson, and it is a nighttime divination; on a Guimao day, the申 is added to the卯, and it is a nighttime divination; on a Renwu day, it is a reverse lesson, and it is a daytime divination; on a Yiwei day and Jiwei day, the卯 is added to the未, and it is a nighttime divination; on a Bingshen day, the午 is added to the申, and it is a daytime divination; on a Guihai day, the戌 is added to the亥, regardless of day or night, and this position is always riding the White Tiger.

墓門開格：如卯酉日占，干墓乘蛇虎加支，主重重有喪。蛇墓克支格：緣干墓乘螣蛇而加支又克支者，必宅內怪異頻見。如丙子日戌加子夜，壬子日辰加子夜，餘有雖臨支而不克者稍輕，然亦未免怪異。外有三十三日例，不欲細具，已上例宜召法官行遣或安鎮之吉，此乃墓門開，占病，主死三兩口，乘白虎者亦的也。

The divination pattern called "Mù Mén Kāi" (Mourning Gate Opens) occurs on days of the Earthly Branches卯 (Mao) and酉 (You). If the Day Stem's墓 (burial) is combined with the Teng Snake or White Tiger and placed on the Day Branch, it indicates consecutive deaths. The pattern called "Shé Mù Kè Zhī" (Snake Burial Overcomes the Branch) happens when the Day Stem's墓 is combined with the Teng Snake and placed on the Day Branch, and this then overcomes the Day Branch. This indicates frequent strange occurrences within the family home. For example, on Bingzi day, the戌 (Xu) is placed on the Zi (子) branch at night; on Renzi day, the辰 (Chen) is placed on the Zi branch at night. Other instances where the墓 is present on the branch but does not overcome it result in slightly less severe misfortune, yet strange events are still unavoidable. There are also thirty-three other examples, which are not listed here. Whenever these patterns occur, it is advisable to consult a spiritualist to perform rituals for protection or to stabilize the home. This is known as "Mù Mén Kāi," which when related to illness indicates that two or three family members will die. If the White Tiger is also present, the prediction is more accurate.

謂支干各被上神克伐者，故名此例，如占訟必兩家皆被撲責。諸占必兩邊各有所虧，如占身被傷，占宅崩損。如丁亥日干上子水克丁火，支上辰土克亥水之類是也。諸例欲去其所克者，內辛未日干上午，支上卯，如占交易等，後必齟齬，如先有齟齬，後卻和合。

The day stem and day branch are each attacked by their respective superior gods, so they are called mutually injured. When predicting legal disputes, both parties will suffer; when predicting other matters, both sides will also suffer losses: if predicting about oneself, the body will be injured; if predicting about the family residence, the house will be damaged. For example, on a Dinghai day, the water of the heavenly stem (the water of the son) overcomes the day stem Ding fire, and the earth of the earthly branch (the earth of the辰) overcomes the day branch Hai water, which is exactly this kind of situation. The method to resolve this is to find a way to remove the one that overcomes me. For example, on a Xinwei day, the day stem is overcome by Wu (the fire of the午), and the day branch is overcome by Mao (the wood of the卯). When predicting matters related to trade and commerce, after a transaction is completed, there will certainly be disputes; if there were disputes beforehand, they will instead be resolved.

謂干被支上神克，支卻被干上神克者，為蕪淫卦，既名蕪淫，何又云夫婦各有私乎？繃夫婦乃人之大倫，既無夫婦好合之情，必有奸私不協之意，卻詳何處有情而言夫婦之私情也。

The day stem is overcome by the heavenly stem on the day branch, and the day branch is overcome by the heavenly stem on the day stem. This is called the Wuyin lesson. Although it is called Wuyin, why is it said that husband and wife each have private feelings? Because husband and wife are the most important relationship in human society. Now, if the stem and branch mutually overcome each other, there is no harmony between husband and wife, so there must be mutual infidelity and lack of agreement. As for which side the private feelings lie, it depends on where there is affection in the lesson, so we can determine who is having an affair outside.

如《心鏡》中以甲子日干上戌，支上申一課為例，乃甲將就子受申克，子近甲兮魁必侵，妻懷內喜私情有，申子相生水合金是也。餘有癸巳、壬午干上子，庚子、乙亥干上丑諸例，凡占不可執為蕪淫卦，非專言夫婦而已，如先有人相允許，後各不相顧接，非獨存無情，尤彼此各懷惡意。

In the "Six Yin Mirror," an example is given of a lesson with the day stem Jiazi, where the heavenly stem is Wu and the earthly branch is Shen. It says that the Jia wood is accommodating to the Zi water, but is instead attacked by the Shen metal. Since Zi is adjacent to Jia, the Wu魁 must come to invade; the wife's heart has another joy, concealing private feelings, because Shen and Zi mutually generate, and water and metal combine. There are also examples such as when the day stem is Guisi with the Zi branch, or Renwu with the Zi branch, or Gengzi with the Chou branch, or Yihai with the Chou branch. Whenever this pattern appears, one should not rigidly assume it refers only to marital infidelity. It is not exclusively about marital affairs: it could also mean that someone previously promised something, but later there was no further communication or care between them. This is not just lack of affection, but rather mutual ill will.

真解離卦，緣干克支上神，支克干上神，或夫婦行年又值此者尤的。如甲子日干上午、支上辰，干克支上辰土，支克干上午火，如男命年在支上，女命年在干上，此時占人必占解離事，已後例內唯詳空亡而言之，小畜九三，輿說輻，夫妻反目。

The true interpretation of the divination lesson involves the day stem overcoming the day branch's spirit, and the day branch overcoming the day stem's spirit. If both partners' ages fall exactly on these two positions, the prediction becomes especially accurate. For example, on a Jiazi day, the stem is Wu and the branch is Chen: the day stem Jia wood overcomes the branch's Chen earth, and the day branch Zi water overcomes the day stem's Wu fire. If the man's age falls on the day branch and the woman's age falls on the day stem, then the person seeking the divination is certainly concerned with a divorce. In the following examples, we only need to check the Kongwang to make the judgment. The third line of the "Xiao Xu" hexagram in the Zhou Changes describes a broken wheel and a couple turning against each other, which is exactly the image here.

謂日干之墓作四季之關神發用者是也，宜分干支發用。如日干之兩課上作發用者，主人衰，如支辰之兩課上發用者，主宅廢。

The deceased's stem also serves as the guardian deity of the four seasons and is used as the initiating transmission. This is the pattern of this particular divination. When making a judgment, one must determine from which side the initiating transmission comes: if it comes from the day stem's two lessons, it indicates decline in the family's population; if it comes from the day branch's two lessons, it indicates the family residence being abandoned.

夫關神者，春丑、夏辰、秋未、冬戌。如乙丑、乙未、乙酉、乙亥四日於秋季占之，未乃干之墓作關神為發用，臨於干上，乃應人口災衰。餘六甲日除甲辰秋占未作丁更凶，其餘各占皆如前說。如丁卯日戌加卯為發用，冬占乃干墓臨支上，乃應宅頹廢，餘仿此。墓神覆日作生氣格：如占作庫務差遣必得，勿作墓看之。

The method of determining the "Guan Shen" (Gate God) is as follows: in spring it is Chou, in summer it is Chen, in autumn it is Wei, and in winter it is Xu. For example, on the days of Yi Chou, Yi Wei, Yi You, and Yi Hai, if a divination is cast in autumn, Wei is both the tomb of Yi Wood and the Gate God of autumn. Therefore, it is taken as the initiating transmission and placed upon the day stem, indicating illness and weakness among family members and people. Among the other six days of Ji (甲), only Jiachen (甲辰) in autumn has Xu also acting as Ding Shen (丁神), making the凶 (misfortune) even more severe. The other days should be interpreted according to the previous explanation. Another example is on Dingmao (丁卯) day, when Xu is placed upon Mao and serves as the initiating transmission. If a divination is cast in winter, Xu is both the tomb of Ding and the Gate God, placed upon the day branch, indicating the collapse and abandonment of the house. The same logic applies to other similar cases. There is also a pattern called "Mù Shén Fù Rì Zuò Shēng Qì" (Mound God Covering the Day as Life Qi): if one is seeking a position related to warehouses or treasuries, they will certainly succeed. In such cases, one should not treat it as a Mound God.

謂地支之墓作日干之財者，必主商販折本，在路阻程，凡謀蹇滯不亨通也。如甲子日辰加子，乃支之墓神而作干之財為發用；甲午日戌加寅用，甲午日戌加子用，乙酉日丑加辰用。

The spirit of the Day Branch's burial is also the wealth star for the Day Stem, indicating losses in business and trade, obstacles on the way, and blockages in all endeavors. For example, on a Jiazi day, the Day Branch is placed on Zi, and since Chen is the burial of Zi and also the wealth for Jia Wood, it is taken as the initiating transmission. On a Jiawu day, when Xu is placed on寅 and initiates, or when Xu is placed on Zi and initiates, and on a Yiyou day, when Chou is placed on Chen and initiates, all belong to this pattern.

疑惑格：卯酉日占事，如行年又在卯酉之上者，必行人進退疑惑，此《心鏡》內龍戰卦中具載，尤忌天車煞。天車煞者，春丑、夏辰、秋未、冬戌也。

This section refers to a situation where, on a day of卯 (Mao) or酉 (You), if the person's age (行年) also falls on卯 or酉, someone who is away from home will certainly be in a dilemma, uncertain and indecisive. This is elaborately explained in the "Six壬 Heart Mirror" (六壬心镜) under the category of dragon battle (龙战) lessons. It is especially unfavorable if the person also encounters the Tian Che (天车)煞. The method to determine Tian Che煞 is: in spring it is丑 (Chou), in summer it is辰 (Chen), in autumn it is未 (Wei), and in winter it is戌 (Xu).

金神乘白虎，必是肝經受病，可治肺而不可治肝。木神乘白虎，必是脾經受病，可治肝而不可治脾。水神乘白虎，必是心經受病，可治腎而不可治心。火神乘白虎，必是肺經受病，可治心而不可治肺。土神乘白虎，必是腎經受病，可治脾而不可治腎。以上諸法，常得靈驗，惟虎受克及家亡，不必治也。

The divine being of the metal element rides the White Tiger, and the illness must be in the liver meridian, because metal controls wood; treatment should focus on the lung, which belongs to metal, to relieve the controlling force, rather than directly treating the liver. The divine being of the wood element rides the White Tiger, and the illness must be in the spleen meridian, because wood controls earth; treatment should focus on the liver, which belongs to wood, rather than directly treating the spleen. The divine being of the water element rides the White Tiger, and the illness must be in the heart meridian, because water controls fire; treatment should focus on the kidney, which belongs to water, rather than directly treating the heart. The divine being of the fire element rides the White Tiger, and the illness must be in the lung meridian, because fire controls metal; treatment should focus on the heart, which belongs to fire, rather than directly treating the lung. The divine being of the earth element rides the White Tiger, and the illness must be in the kidney meridian, because earth controls water; treatment should focus on the spleen, which belongs to earth, rather than directly treating the kidney. All these methods have been repeatedly tested and proven effective; however, if the White Tiger itself is being controlled or if the household it resides in has already declined, there is no need for further treatment.

運糧神格：占治病專視日干之食神，尤妙干、行年乘之，乃名運糧神，忌空。祿糧神格：緣宜觀干之祿神，亦名祿糧神，唯不可落空亡及作閉口，或受克。如占久病值此，必絕食而餓死。如辛未日酉加寅，乃是祿坐絕鄉，又作閉口，又名無祿卦，占病必死，占食祿事亦忌。

The "Yun Liang Shen" (Grain Transport God) pattern: When predicting illness, one should focus on the day stem's food god. If this food god is directly on the day stem or on the year pillar, it is most favorable, and this position is called "Yun Liang Shen." However, it is most忌 (to be avoided) if it falls in "Kongwang" (void). The "Lu Liang Shen" (Grain of Fortune God) pattern: This also involves the day stem's fortune god, also called "Lu Liang Shen." However, it must not fall in "Kongwang," must not be a "Bi Kou" (closed mouth) god, and must not be overcome. If a long-term sick person encounters these situations, they will certainly not eat any grain and die of starvation. For example, on a Xinwei day, if you have You (Metal) on寅 (Tiger), the original fortune of Xin is on You. Now, You is sitting in the "Jue" (decline) position, and becomes a "Bi Kou" (closed mouth), which is called "Wu Lu Ke" (no fortune chart). When predicting illness, it indicates death; when predicting salary and food matters, it is also very inauspicious.

絕體卦乃是柔干之祿受絕，返吟卦乃是剛干之祿受絕，絕嗣體先亡為祟。生死格：宜觀生氣死氣尤驗。如正月生氣在子，死氣在午，乃生氣剋死氣也。如在甲寅旬中占之，乃生氣空亡而死氣實在，占病可畏。如行年上神是亥水尚可醫療，緣亥水克其午之死氣故也。如死氣克生氣，又落空亡，或行年上神生其死氣者必死。如生氣與死氣不相剋者，占病雖無妨，但遷延而未即痊瘥也。

The lesson pattern of Ju Ti is when the禄神 of a yin and soft heavenly stem is in a state of绝; the lesson pattern of Fan Yin is when the禄神 of a yang and strong heavenly stem is in a state of绝. If the lesson pattern also indicates绝嗣, it is mostly due to the deceased ancestors causing trouble. The pattern of Sheng Si is to observe the Life Qi and Death Qi of the current month, which is most effective. For example, in the first lunar month, the Life Qi is in Zi and the Death Qi is in Wu. Zi water exactly overcomes Wu fire, so the Life Qi can control the Death Qi. However, if the lesson is cast within the Jiayin decade, Zi falls into Kongwang, making the Life Qi weak and the Death Qi strong, which is ominous for illness. At this time, if the person's year pillar is亥 water, there is still a chance of recovery, because亥 water can also overcome the Death Qi in Wu. But if the Death Qi overcomes the Life Qi, and the Life Qi falls into Kongwang, or if the person's year pillar god supports the Death Qi, then death is certain. If the Life Qi and Death Qi do not overcome each other, although the illness is not serious, it will only be prolonged and not cured quickly.

白虎乘日鬼而作空亡，必已病而未瘥。虎墓格：緣日干之墓乘白虎在六處者，如占病必是積塊病，宜以破積藥治之，如六乙日晝將順行，乃未乘白虎；內乙酉日未空亡無畏，或易療，非年深積塊也。又六辛日晝將順行，亦丑乘白虎，辛酉日丑空亡，亦容易治療。

The White Tiger is riding on the Day Stem's official ghost and is falling into Kongwang, indicating that the person has been ill for a long time but has not recovered. This is called the White Tiger in the tomb position: when the Day Stem's tomb god is riding the White Tiger and appears in six positions such as the Day Stem, Branch, and Three Transmissions, the illness is definitely a mass in the abdomen, and treatment should involve medicine to eliminate accumulation and break up the mass. For example, on the six days of Yi, when the White Tiger is riding on the position of Wei in the daytime sequence, on Yiyou day, the Wei position falls into Kongwang, which is not dangerous, and the illness is easy to treat, not an old mass. Similarly, on the six days of Xin, when the White Tiger is riding on the position of Chou in the daytime sequence, on Xinyou day, the Chou position falls into Kongwang, which is also easy to treat.

虎乘丁鬼格：如六辛日有白虎乘丁者，占病必知所患疼痛之處也。如辛卯日亥加丑作中傳，晝占乃亥乘白虎作丁神，必為頭疼以致不救，余觀丁虎類而言之。

The pattern of White Tiger riding on Ding Ghost: On six days of Xin, if the White Tiger is riding on the Ding spirit of the current ten-day period, then in divination about illness, one can determine the exact location of the pain. For example, on a Xinmao day, if亥 is placed on丑 and taken as the Middle Transmission, and during the daytime when the lesson is cast,亥 is riding the White Tiger and also serves as the Ding spirit, it indicates a headache that may be fatal. Other examples should be interpreted according to the nature of the branches where the White Tiger and Ding spirit fall.

丑為脾疼或腹疼，卯手疼或目疼，巳齒疼或咽喉疼，未胃疼或積塊疼，酉大腸，亥臨戌亥子丑寅卯為頭，亥臨辰巳午未申酉為腎，餘逐類言之。如日鬼臨於六處不乘白虎，但擬其鬼亦為病證，如火為鬼便言肺病，水為鬼便言心病，金為鬼便言肝病，土為鬼腎病，木為鬼脾病。如鬼受克並空亡不必療亦瘥。

When the White Tiger is in the position of Chou, it indicates spleen pain or abdominal pain; if it is in Mao, it indicates hand pain or eye pain; if it is in Si, it indicates tooth pain or throat pain; if it is in Wei, it indicates stomach pain or pain from a mass; if it is in You, it indicates large intestine disease. If Hai is in the positions of Xu, Hai, Zi, Chou, Yin, or Mao, it indicates head problems; if Hai is in the positions of Chen, Si, Wu, Wei, Shen, or You, it indicates kidney problems. The other branches should be analyzed similarly. If the official ghost (官鬼) of the day stem falls in six positions but does not ride the White Tiger, the disease can still be determined by the official ghost alone: if fire is the ghost, it indicates lung disease; if water is the ghost, it indicates heart disease; if metal is the ghost, it indicates liver disease; if earth is the ghost, it indicates kidney disease; if wood is the ghost, it indicates spleen disease. If the official ghost is both attacked and falls in Kongwang, the illness will naturally recover without treatment.

蒿矢卦亦宜言有疼痛處，金加火上，筋骨疼痛，惟庚日申酉加巳午尤的。連茹卦作日之財，占病必因傷食而得，如人年命上神能制其財神者，尚可醫療。如年命上神生其財神者，必致死亡。

The蒿矢 lesson can also indicate physical pain in the body: when metal is placed on fire, it indicates pain in the bones and joints. This is most accurate when庚 day and 申 or 酉 are placed on巳 or 午. In the连茹 lesson, if the connected god is the wealth god of the day stem, the illness is caused by excessive eating; if the god of the person's year and life can control that wealth god, there is a chance of recovery; but if the god of the person's year and life instead supports the wealth god, it will certainly lead to death.

斫輪格：如卯加申，戌加卯，占病必手足不舉，或有傷。空祿格：緣日之祿神作空亡又坐克方，占病必絕食而餓死。如甲辰日寅加酉，夜又乘白虎，返吟夜；乙巳日卯加申夜，返吟夜；丁亥日午加亥夜，日之食神在禁方與前課同。

The "Zhuo Lun" pattern: When the branch of Mao is placed on Shen, or Xu is placed on Mao, it indicates illness with the inability to move the hands and feet, or injury to the body. The "Kong Wang" pattern: When the day stem's禄神 falls into Kongwang and is seated in the direction that克制 it, the illness will certainly lead to starvation and death. For example, on Jiachen day, when寅 is placed on You, and it is night divination, and寅 is also riding the White Tiger, the same applies to the reverse pattern at night. On Yisi day, when Mao is placed on Shen, and it is night divination, the same applies to the reverse pattern at night. On Dinghai day, when Wu is placed on Hai, and it is night divination, the day stem's food god is trapped in a forbidden place, and the method of interpretation is the same as the previous case.

祿神閉口格：緣祿神作閉口，為旬尾乘白虎者是也。如乙未卯加申，又返吟夜；丙戌、戊子，巳為祿神閉口；辛未日酉加戌夜；壬戌日亥為閉口祿。

The pattern of the禄神 closed mouth: the禄神 of the day stem acts as the closed mouth god, meaning it falls on the last branch of its旬 and is accompanied by the White Tiger. For example, on Yiwei day, the卯 is placed on the申, and this applies to night divination in a reverse repetition pattern. On Bingxu day and Wuzi day, the巳 serves as the closed mouth禄神. On Xinwei day, the酉 is placed on the戌 for night divination. On Renxu day, the亥 is the closed mouth禄神.

六片板格：緣六合乘申臨卯，為尸入棺。緣申者身也，於三月占尤的，乃是死身，即死尸也，且上有六合，下有卯木，是為棺也。尸入棺，占病必死，尤宜詳其類神而言之，或申加卯不乘六合，於九月占，但病在床而未愈，緣申是生氣，卯為木床。癸卯日申加卯，占父母長生病死尤速，緣父母爻入棺故也。又如丙戌、丁卯二日申加卯，晝將上乘六合，如占妻病必死，緣妻財爻亦入棺故也。已上皆三月占尤驗。

The hexagram of six boards: "Liu He" (六合) is riding on Shen and is placed on Mao, forming an image of a corpse entering the coffin. Shen represents the human body, and starting the calculation in the third month is most accurate, for at that time Shen is the dead body, that is, the corpse; above it is Liu He covering it, and below is Mao wood, which is the coffin board. Six pieces of wood make a coffin. Once the corpse is in the coffin, if the illness is divined, it is certain to be fatal. One should also carefully check which of the Six Relations it belongs to, in order to determine which person is affected. If Shen is placed on Mao without riding on Liu He, and the calculation starts in the ninth month, then it is only a person lying in bed, not yet recovered, because in the ninth month Shen is the Life Qi, and Mao wood is just a wooden bed. On Guimao day, when Shen is placed on Mao, the death of parents is especially quick, because the parents'爻 (line) has entered the coffin. Another example is on Bingxu and Dingmao days, when Shen is placed on Mao with Liu He on top in the daytime, the death of the wife is certain, because the wife's wealth line has entered the coffin. All these examples are most accurate when the calculation starts in the third month.

白虎入喪車格：緣申加巳發用為的，占病可畏。人入鬼門格：如庚日申為本命，返吟課占病必死。收魂神：乃戊日辰為元武者是，夜順晝逆有之，於十一月占尤的，緣辰為死氣故也。

The pattern "White Tiger Enters the Funeral Car" indicates that when the hour stem is placed on the day stem and the initiating transmission is taken from the combination of Shen and Si, it is most accurate, and the divination regarding illness is very ominous. The pattern "Entering the Gate of Ghosts" suggests that on a Geng day, if Shen is the person's destiny stem and the lesson is a reverse repetition, the illness is certain to be fatal. The method of capturing the soul spirit is when on a Wu day, the Chen stem is occupied by the Black Tortoise. This appears during the night when the hour progresses in the normal order and during the day when it regresses. This is most accurate starting from the eleventh month, because at that time the Chen stem is exactly the Death Qi.

浴盆煞：緣忌浴盤有水。夫浴盤者，春辰、夏未、秋戌、冬丑是也。如地盤見浴盆上，忌乘亥子水；天盤見浴盤上忌天后元武二將，如占小兒病死尤速，緣亥為孩，子為子息，故不要見水也。天后亦是子，元武亦是亥。寒熱格：如巳午加亥子，如或剋日主癆病，十干返吟必心患痁（疒+邑）。

The Bath Tub Death: The taboo is having water in the bath tub. The determination of the bath tub position is: in spring it is the辰 (Chen) position, in summer the未 (Wei) position, in autumn the戌 (Xu) position, and in winter the丑 (Chou) position. On the earth plate, the bath tub position should not have the water branches亥 (Hai) and子 (Zi). On the heaven plate, the bath tub position should not have the water generals Heavenly Empress (Heavenly Empress) andBlack Tortoise (Black Tortoise). When predicting illness in children, encountering these situations leads to a particularly quick death, because亥 (Hai) governs children and子 (Zi) governs descendants, so water is most feared. Moreover, Heavenly Empress (Heavenly Empress) naturally belongs to子 (Zi), andBlack Tortoise (Black Tortoise) naturally belongs to亥 (Hai). The pattern of cold and heat: when巳 (Si) and午 (Wu) are placed over亥 (Hai) and子 (Zi), and if they also overcome the day stem, it indicates consumption disease. In the case of a returning heavenly stem lesson, it indicates a fever with alternating chills and heat, commonly known as malaria.

宴喜致病格：如癸酉、癸亥、癸丑三日並支上未作太常為用，夜將有之。壬戌子寅日並支上未作太常，夜貴有之。以上六日例，緣未為太常克干居於宅上，或為發用，如占病必因喜事及宴飲，或往親戚家帶病而歸。若是官人占之，必因赴宴席過觴而得病，餘占皆因前事而致不美。

This pattern, "Yanxi Zhi Bing" (Disease from Celebration and Joy), applies to the three days: Guiyou, Guihai, and Guichou. On these days, the hexagram of Wei (Earth) on the day branch is occupied by Tai Chang and is taken as the initiating transmission, which occurs during the night general hour. Similarly, for the three days: Renxu, Renzi, and Rennyin, the hexagram of Wei on the day branch is also occupied by Tai Chang, which is taken as the initiating transmission during the night noble hour. These six days form a pattern because the Wei earth, which is occupied by Tai Chang, is able to overcome the day stem and occupies the position of the house, or directly becomes the initiating transmission. When this pattern is used to divinate illness, it indicates that the illness was caused by celebration, drinking, and feasting, or by visiting relatives and returning home with illness. If a person in official position encounters this pattern, it suggests that they became ill due to excessive drinking during a banquet. For other matters, this pattern indicates that the outcome is not favorable due to such events.

因妻致病格：如壬子癸丑二日，未遁旬干者，必往妻家得病極驗，惟占人行年本命上有卯木為救，如乘寅木必得神護，尤宜命法官治之為妙，倘少緩，寅木反被未墓，便難救也。

This pattern, "disease caused by wife," applies to the days of Renzi and Guichou. When the hidden stem of the ten-day cycle matches the heavenly stem of the day, it indicates that the person will fall ill upon visiting his wife's family, and this prediction is very accurate. However, if the person's birth year or birth stem contains the wood of Mao, it can alleviate the situation. If instead, it contains the wood of Yin, divine protection may still be obtained, so it is best to urgently consult a priest for a ritual to ward off the ill effects. If there is any delay, the wood of Yin may be absorbed by the earth of Wei, making it difficult to save.

血厭病虎作鬼格：白虎乘病符克干尤可畏，或年命上乘血支血忌者，必是血病。或女命占病又帶月厭作血支血忌，病必是血崩或墮胎尤驗。

This pattern is called "Blood Aversion, Disease Tiger Becomes Ghost": When the White Tiger is riding on the Bingfu deity to attack the day stem, it is particularly ominous; if the person's birth year also carries both the Blood Branch and Blood Taboo evils, they are certain to suffer from blood-related illnesses. If a woman is consulting about illness and her birth year already includes the Month Aversion, along with the Blood Branch and Blood Taboo, her illness is definitely either blood discharge or miscarriage, and the prediction is especially accurate.
