On the Yihai day, fifth arrangement: stem on the child branch

課體：涉害，曲直，泆女。課義：自墓傳生，先迷後醒，晝占家宅，昏晦伶仃。解曰：未乃乙木之墓神，亥乃乙木之長生。初傳未土，末傳亥水，是自墓中傳出長生也，占事先昏晦而後通明。未墓晝乘白虎克宅，墓主闇昧，虎主喪凶，自然宅內多昏晦伶仃之事矣。

The lesson pattern is "涉害", "曲直", and "泆女". When there are more than two instances of mutual control between upper and lower, compare which one is more harmful and use that one, which is called "涉害". If the three transmissions consist of亥, 卯, and 未 forming a wood formation, it is called "曲直". The four lines of the lesson meaning say: the three transmissions originate from the day stem's墓, leading to growth, first being confused and then becoming clear. However, when divining for a household during the day, the household is dark and lonely. Detailed explanation: 未 is the墓 of 乙 wood, and 亥 is the long life of 乙 wood. The first transmission is 未 earth, and the final transmission is 亥 water, which is exactly originating from the墓 to lead to growth, so the matter first appears dark and then becomes clear. 未墓 during the day is occupied by White Tiger, which harms the household. The墓 is dark and obscure, and White Tiger signifies loss and danger, so the household naturally has many dark and lonely matters.

斷曰：課乃見機，傳曰曲直，宜尖上取尖，美中求美。倘或悠柔不決，必至曲屈難伸；又支干相害，不宜占交加之事。利於兄弟，而不利於妻孥。夜占簾幕臨日，利占科第。天后陰神，乘虎亦防斷絃。

General interpretation: The four lessons are named "Seeing Opportunity," and the three transmissions are named "Curved and Straight." It is favorable to seek sharpness in sharpness and perfection in perfection. If one hesitates and lacks decisiveness, it will lead to difficulties in proceeding. Also, due to the mutual harm between the heavenly stem and earthly branch, it is not suitable to consult about matters involving mutual dealings. It benefits brothers but is unfavorable for wife and children. When the lesson is cast at night, the "Lanmu" (Night Nobleman) is present on the day stem, which is favorable for consulting about imperial examinations. The spiritual ghost of the Heavenly Empress is also riding the White Tiger, so one should beware of the loss of wife and broken strings.

天時：大罡指陽，水母空陷，木局上風，晴而有風。家宅：自墓傳生，先凶後吉，日漸光明之象。仕宦：晝夜皆有簾幕，占試甚利。求財：不能如意，取之有禍。謁貴：事干兩貴。婚姻：支干克害，占婚不吉。胎產：上強下弱，男妊；子母相害，難產。疾病：腎水不足之疾，或有痞積，病症克人，宜慎宜謹。出行：陸路可行。行人：天罡加孟，尚未啟行。逃亡：難獲。出師：晝夜皆凶。

Divination on the weather: The Tiangang points to the yang position, the position of the monkey (申) which represents water is empty, the wood element is active and causes wind, indicating a clear sky with wind. Divination on the household: The growth (长生) comes from the tomb (墓), first there will be misfortune but later it will turn to good fortune, the family's fortune will gradually brighten. Divination on official career: There are noblemen (贵人) in both day and night positions, which is very favorable for examinations. Divination on seeking wealth: It will not be satisfactory, forcefully obtaining it will bring disaster. Divination on meeting noblemen: The matter involves noblemen in both day and night positions. Divination on marriage: The heavenly stems and earthly branches mutually control and harm each other, indicating an unfavorable marriage. Divination on pregnancy: The upper is strong and the lower is weak, indicating a male fetus; however, the mother and child mutually harm each other, there is a risk of difficult childbirth. Divination on illness: It is a disease of insufficient kidney water, or there are lumps and accumulations, the illness can harm people, one must be cautious. Divination on travel: Traveling by land is feasible. Divination on a traveler: The Tiangang is on the first position (孟位), the person has not yet started the journey. Divination on escape: It is difficult to capture. Divination on military affairs: Both day and night divinations indicate bad outcomes.

畢法云：貴雖坐獄宜臨干，支乘墓虎有伏尸，干墓並關人宅廢，彼此猜忌害相隨，合中犯殺蜜中砒。纂義云：未為干墓，臨支克支，上乘白虎，宅中必有伏尸為禍。課經云：亥年正月，亥將加卯為災厄課，蓋未為喪車，乘死氣加亥，又為歲虎故也。

The "Bifa Fu" says: Although the Nobleman is seated in the position of imprisonment, if he approaches the Day Stem, it is still considered appropriate; if the Day Branch carries theTomb Spirit (mound spirit) and also carries the White Tiger, there will be a corpse lying in the house; if the墓 of the Day Stem is also locked up, both the person and the house will decline; there is mutual suspicion and harmful qi follows; in harmony, there is aInauspicious Sha (auspicious evil), like sweet honey containing arsenic. The "Liu Ren Zuan Yi" says: The earth branch "Wei" is the墓 of the wood stem "Yi", if "Wei" is placed upon the Day Branch and further attacks the Day Branch, and also carries the White Tiger above, there must be hidden corpses causing disturbances in the house. The "Liu Ren Ke Jing" says: In the first month of the亥 year, take the亥 as the Month General placed upon the卯, forming the "Disaster and Misfortune Lesson", because "Wei" is the丧车 (funeral carriage), carrying death qi and placed upon the亥 position, it also becomes the year's tiger.

課體：重審，不備。課義：中丁初脫，空鬼居末，幸遇支生，死而後活。解曰：初傳午火，為乙木之脫氣。中傳丑土，上乘遁丁。末傳申金，乃日干之官鬼，空亡無氣。則三傳之中，無一佳境。而午又為乙木之死地，若非支神之亥水相生，安能死而復活乎。

The lesson pattern is "Chong Shen" and "Bu Bei": when the four lessons are not complete and only form three, it is called "Bu Bei." The four lines of the lesson meaning explain that the middle transmission is riding on the Ding spirit of the middle ten days, the first transmission drains the day stem, the empty official ghost is in the final transmission, and fortunately the day branch亥 water supports, thus achieving revival from death. Detailed explanation: the first transmission is the fire of午, which is the draining and escaping energy of the wood of乙; the middle transmission is the earth of丑, which is occupied by the Ding spirit that has emerged in this ten-day cycle; the final transmission is the metal of申, which is the official ghost of the day stem, but it falls into Kongwang and has no strength. It is evident that none of the three transmissions are in a favorable position.午 is also the death place of乙 wood; without the support of亥 water from the day branch, how could it revive from death?

斷曰：支干皆刑，又復相剋，賓主不投，室家不睦。事起於女，患由於下。凡百所占，皆勿通利。末傳空亡，不如退守為佳。乙亥日午加亥為用，為恩多怨深格，緣干生初傳，初傳生中傳，中傳生末傳，是為恩也。末傳剋日干，是反成仇也。支加干生干，為自在格。

Overall interpretation: Both the heavenly stem and earthly branch involve mutual punishment, and they also mutually control each other, indicating that the host and guest are not in harmony, and family members are not in agreement. The matter is initiated by a woman, and the disaster comes from the lower people. Whatever is being questioned, it will not be smooth. The final transmission falls into an empty position, so it is better to retreat. On the Yihai day, the transmission starts with Wu added to Hai, which belongs to the pattern of "abundant favor but deep resentment": the day stem generates the first transmission, the first transmission generates the middle transmission, and the middle transmission generates the final transmission, with a continuous generation indicating favor; however, the final transmission turns back to control the day stem, turning favor into enmity. The day branch is added onto the day stem and then generates the day stem, which is called the "free and easy pattern."

天時：天罡指畢，課體陽不備，青龍乘丁，皆為雨象。家宅：宅來生人，主發財丁。仕宦：靜守生氣，恐防不久。求財：主得婦女之財。謁貴：貴人空陷，恐不能遇。婚姻：支來加干，女家俯就。胎產：二陽包陰，上弱下強，恐是女孕。疾病：金鬼克木，肝經之症，然已空陷，不藥可愈。出行：晝占不利，夜占水路甚吉。行人：天罡加仲，尚在中途。出師：宜守生氣，糧儲足備。

Divination on weather: The Tiangang points to the Net mansion, the lesson pattern is yang not complete, and the Azure Dragon is riding the Ding spirit, all indicating rain. Divination on the household: The household qi comes to benefit people, indicating wealth and a new child. Divination on career: Keeping still and guarding the life qi is still acceptable, but fear it cannot last long. Divination on seeking wealth: It indicates gaining wealth from women. Divination on meeting a nobleman: The nobleman is in an empty and fallen position, fearing not being able to meet. Divination on marriage: The day branch is added to the day stem, indicating the woman is willing to compromise. Divination on pregnancy: Two yangs surround one yin, with the upper weak and the lower strong, suggesting the fetus is likely female. Divination on illness: Metal ghost controls wood, indicating a liver meridian illness, but the ghost has fallen into emptiness, so even without medicine it can recover. Divination on travel: Starting the lesson during the day is not favorable, but starting it at night and traveling by water is very auspicious. Divination on a traveler: The Tiangang is added to the middle position, indicating the person is still on the way. Divination on military affairs: It is advisable to hold fast to the life qi area, and to have sufficient supplies of grain and fodder.

畢法云：閉口卦體兩般推。課經云：乙亥日，午加亥為用，不利仕宦，惟利常人。蓋末傳之申金為官鬼，既被初傳午火所傷，又被中傳丑土所墓，復兼空陷，是申金全無氣象矣，復何畏哉。

The "Bifa Fu" says that the卦 (divination chart) with the "closed mouth" pattern should be analyzed in two different situations. The "Liu Ren Ke Jing" states that on a Yihai day, with the Wu (午) added to Hai (亥) as the initiating transmission, it is unfavorable for those seeking official positions but beneficial for ordinary people. This is because the final transmission's Shen (申) metal, which originally represents official ghosts, is injured by the first transmission's Wu (午) fire, and also taken into the tomb by the middle transmission's Chou (丑) earth. Moreover, it falls into an empty and hidden position, so the Shen metal has completely lost its strength, and there is nothing to fear.

課體：反吟，元胎。課義：晝將凶惡，須防有失，動則雙雙，費用不值。解曰：巳為乙木之脫氣，晝乘白虎，既極凶惡，夜乘元武，豈免遺失乎。傳有兩馬，來往不已，是動則雙雙也。亥之生我也少，已之脫我也多，其費用豈小哉。斷曰：反吟之卦，反覆呻吟，變遷不常，得失無定，主宅舍動移之事。巳乘白虎加亥，主小兒有咽喉之病，及木器櫥櫃鎖有傷損，或車船有翻覆之患。支馬臨絕，行人即來。

The lesson pattern is "Reverse Chant" and "Original Embryo": when the gods on the Heaven Plate and Earth Plate each clash with one another, it is called "Reverse Chant." When something goes from nothing to existence, like the beginning of a pregnancy, it is called "Original Embryo." The four lines of "Lesson Meaning" say: the heavenly general during the day is fierce and evil, so one should beware of loss; once movement begins, things come in pairs, and expenses are great without value. Detailed explanation:巳 is the place where 乙 wood is exhausted, and the white tiger during the day is extremely fierce and evil. At night, it is the black tortoise, how can loss be avoided? There are two instances of the post-horse in the three transmissions, moving continuously, so it is said that once movement begins, things come in pairs. The amount of亥 water that nourishes me is small, while the amount of巳 fire that drains me is great, so how can expenses be small? Overall conclusion: "Reverse Chant" lessons indicate repeated suffering, constant change, and uncertain gains and losses, often related to moving house. When the white tiger on巳 is placed on亥, it indicates a child suffering from throat illness, damage to wooden cabinets and locks, or the risk of a ship or vehicle capsizing. The post-horse on the day branch is in the place of extinction, so the traveler will arrive immediately.

天時：久晴而始雨，雨而復晴，終是晴多雨少。家宅：來者思去，去者思歸，夜占防盜，失不止一。仕宦：貴祿不見課傳，官星與青龍又皆藏匿，占官不吉。求財：財爻臨身，宜得文書獄卒之財。謁貴：無因致前。婚姻：男亦不貴，女亦欠佳。胎產：妊者防墜，產者防遲，下強上弱，產乃弄瓦。疾病：肺經有疾，或肝經受制，或輕或重，寒熱往來，熱多冷少。出行：陸路可行，水路不吉。行人：天罡加季，行人立至。出師：晝夜占之皆不吉，或損將士，或傷資財，或失盔甲。

Divination on weather: After a long period of clear skies, rain comes, then the weather turns clear again. In the end, there is more clear sky than rain. Divination on the household: Those at home want to go out, and those who have gone out want to return. When casting a divination at night, it is necessary to guard against theft, and theft may occur more than once. Divination on official career: Neither the nobleman nor the official star appears in the four lessons and three transmissions. The official star and the azure dragon are both hidden, which is an inauspicious sign for official matters. Divination on seeking wealth: The wealth element is on the self, which is favorable for obtaining money from official or public sources. Divination on visiting a nobleman: There is no favorable sign for approaching the nobleman. Divination on marriage: The man is not prominent, and the woman is not excellent. Divination on pregnancy and childbirth: Pregnant women should be cautious of miscarriage, and those about to give birth should be cautious of delayed delivery. The lower element is strong and the upper element is weak, indicating the birth of a girl. Divination on illness: There is illness in the lung meridian, or the liver meridian is restricted. The condition may be light or heavy, with alternating cold and heat, but more heat than cold. Divination on travel: Travel by land is favorable, but travel by water is inauspicious. Divination on a traveler: The tiangang is added to the season position, indicating the traveler will arrive immediately. Divination on military matters: Both day and night divinations are inauspicious, possibly resulting in loss of soldiers, damage to property, or loss of armor.

畢法云：虎乘遁鬼殃非淺（晝將）。秘要云：白虎加臨旬內之遁鬼，其禍最深，縱空亡亦不能為救。照膽秘訣云：巳亥中間常缺欠，重求輕得報君知。

The "Bifa Fu" says: When the White Tiger is on the official ghost that has escaped from the ten-day cycle, calamity is severe (referring to the heavenly general during the day). The "Lun Yin Mi Yao" says: When the White Tiger is placed on top of the official ghost that has escaped from the current ten-day cycle, the disaster is most profound, even if it falls into Kongwang, it cannot be saved. The "Zhaodan Miao Jue" says: In the section between巳 and亥, there is often a deficiency, and things often appear heavy when sought but light when obtained. This is hereby informed.

課體：重審，斬關，不備，勵德。課義：空鬼干遇，支乘實墓，用鬼獲財，迤邐克去。解曰：酉乃干鬼，旬空無畏。辰乃支墓，實克亥支，宅必昏晦矣。酉克初傳寅木，寅克中傳未土，未克末傳子水，皆是遞克之財，此所謂用鬼獲財者也。

The lesson pattern is "Re-examination," "Cutting the Gate," "Incompleteness," and "Encouraging Virtue." The four lines of the lesson meaning state: the day stem meets an empty official ghost, yet the day branch rides on a solid tomb god; relying on the official ghost leads to gaining wealth, with a continuous sequence of mutual control through the transmissions. Detailed explanation:酉 is the official ghost of the day stem, but since it falls in the empty旬, there is no need to fear. 辰 is the tomb of the day branch, and it actually controls 亥 branch, indicating a dark household. 酉 metal controls the first transmission's 寅 wood, 寅 wood controls the middle transmission's 未 soil, 未 soil controls the final transmission's 子 water, with a layered sequence of mutual control bringing about wealth, which is called "using the ghost to gain wealth."

斷曰：重審之卦，利上不利下，支干自刑，三傳受制，大約憂喜皆無實在也。三傳全受夾克，寅受陰酉夾克，未受龍寅夾克，子受貴未夾克，不宜干貴求財，恐其致禍。辰就支上，謂避難逃生。

Overall interpretation: The divination indicates that the course "Chong Shen" (Re-examination) is favorable for superiors but not for inferiors. Both the heavenly stem and earthly branch carry punishments, and the three transmissions are also constrained, so overall, there is neither clear worry nor clear joy. The three transmissions are all sandwiched between upper and lower:寅 is sandwiched between Tai Yin and You, 未 is sandwiched between Qing Long and寅, 子 is sandwiched between Guǐ Rén and 未, so it is not advisable to seek the nobleman for financial matters, as it may lead to misfortune. The ethereal wood (Yi) is in the lodging palace of Chen, which moves to the day branch, which is called "avoiding danger and escaping."

天時：水運乎上，箕畢相會，天罡臨亥，風雨大作。家宅：人宅自刑，門衰祚薄。仕宦：官祿兩空，占官不吉。求財：晝占獲財，夜占費力。謁貴：晝占必遇，夜占不吉。婚姻：六合事成，但恐不吉。胎產：下強上弱，占妊成女，支於帶刑，產亦欠利。疾病：脾胃傷食所致，或痢疾之類，喜鬼空無害，但不能即愈。出行：陸路欠安，舟楫不吉。行人：天罡加孟，尚未啟行。出師：晝占中平，夜占防詐。

Divination on weather: Water vapour moves above, indicating the Wind mansion and the Rain mansion converge. The Tiangang star is at the亥 position, so there will certainly be strong winds and heavy rain. Divination on the household: The person and the house mutually harm each other, the gate is declining, and fortune is shallow. Divination on official career: The official star and the禄 god are both empty, so it is not auspicious for official matters. Divination on seeking wealth: If the lesson is cast in the daytime, wealth can be obtained; if cast at night, effort is wasted. Divination on meeting a nobleman: If the lesson is cast in the daytime, meeting is certain; if cast at night, it is not auspicious. Divination on marriage: There is the Liu He god to facilitate matters, but the outcome may be unsatisfactory. Divination on pregnancy: The lower is strong and the upper is weak, indicating a female fetus; with branches and stems involving punishment, childbirth will not be smooth. Divination on illness: The illness is caused by injury to the spleen and stomach, or possibly dysentery; it is fortunate that the official ghost is empty and there is no major harm, but recovery will not be quick. Divination on travel: Land travel is unstable, and water travel is also not auspicious. Divination on a traveler: The Tiangang star is at the beginning position, so the person has not yet started the journey. Divination on military affairs: If the lesson is cast in the daytime, it is average; if cast at night, beware of enemies deceiving.

畢法云：避難逃生須棄舊，干支全傷防兩損，賓主不投刑在上。要覽云：乙亥日，干上酉，支上辰。干支上神作六合，但支上神為日之財，反生干上之鬼，有求榮反辱之象。乙日干上見六合乘酉，謂之對神隔將，玉成歌曰：對神隔將主人離，辰上逢之宅破期。

The *Bifa Fu* says: To avoid danger and escape must abandon the old situation; if both the heavenly stem and earthly branch are injured, one should beware of mutual loss; if the host and guest do not harmonize, it is because of the presence of a crime in the upper position. The *Lunin Yaojian* says: On the day of Yihai, the day stem is You, and the day branch is Chen. Although the heavenly stem and earthly branch form theLiu He, the heavenly stem of the day branch, which is originally the wealth of the day stem, turns to nourish the official ghost on the day stem, indicating a situation where one seeks honor but receives disgrace. On the day of Yi, when theLiu He is on the day stem and rides on You, it is called "opposite god blocking the general." The *Yucheng Ge* says: "Opposite god blocking the general" indicates separation of the master, and when it meets Chen, it signifies the time of the house breaking down.

課體：重審，曲直，泆女，喪門。課義：官貴無補，夜祿乘虎，宅雖旺臨，晝乘元武。解曰：申金為乙木之官星，夜貴又臨其上，俱為空陷，是無補益也。卯為日祿，臨於亥上，雖則旺相，然夜虎驚憂，晝元費耗，亦何益之有。酉為乙木之胎神，今作空亡，受下神巳火之克，為損孕格。占產當日便生，占孕恐致損墮。斷曰：曲直之卦，事因同類，起廠女子，有孟濟未濟之象。申雖日鬼臨身，緣是貴人，切勿作鬼祟目之。占病是神祇為患，又謂之閒貴人，不宜占訟。

The lesson pattern is "Chong Shen" (Re-examination), "Qu Zhi" (Curved and Straight), "Yu Nu" (Foolish Woman), and "Sang Men" (Mourning-and-Condolence Spirit): the three transmitters are亥, 卯, and 未, which form a wood trinity, and since wood has the nature of being curved and straight, it is called "Qu Zhi." The four lines of the lesson meaning say: the official star and nobleman are of no help to me, and in the night divination, the day's禄 is riding on the White Tiger; although the family residence has a prosperous and strong禄, it is riding on the Black Tortoise in the day. Detailed explanation: 申 metal is the official star of 乙 wood, and the night nobleman is also on it, but both are falling into emptiness and decline, offering me no benefit. 卯 is the day's禄, located on 亥 water, although it is prosperous and strong, but in the night divination, it is riding on the White Tiger, bringing alarm and worry, and in the day divination, it is riding on the Black Tortoise, causing expenditure, so what benefit is there? 酉 is the fetal god of 乙 wood, now falling into emptiness and being overcome by the fire below at 巳, forming the "Shen Yun Ge" (Damage to Pregnancy Pattern): if divining about childbirth, the child will be born that day; if divining about pregnancy, there is a risk of miscarriage. Overall conclusion: the "Qu Zhi" lesson arises from peers and similar things, originating from a woman, with a mixture of both completion and non-completion. Although 申 is the official star affecting the day, it is also a nobleman, so it should not be regarded as a demon. If divining about illness, it is the interference of deities, which is called "Xian Guiren" (Idle Nobleman), and it is not suitable for divining about lawsuits.

天時：天罡指陽，日上皆空，曲直生火，大晴之象。家宅：旺祿臨亥，家道必豐，但嫌元虎，不甚安寧。仕宦：官星與貴人皆空，求官不吉。求財：青龍與財父發用，急宜取之，遲則不得。謁貴：夜貴臨干，夜占甚吉。婚姻：男嫌貴空，女嫌將凶，且恐不就。胎產：母實兒空，恐不成胎。疾病：肝脾之病，恐難痊好。出行：陸路空克，水路驚憂。行人：日馬不見，天罡加孟，行者未歸。出師：晝占無成，夜亦不吉。

Divination on the weather: The Tiangang points to the Yang position, and all the deities on the day stem are empty. The curved and straight wood formation gives birth to fire, indicating a very clear and sunny day. Divination on the household: The prosperous and noble position is on the亥 position, meaning the family's fortune will certainly be abundant, but there is a worry about the Black Tortoise and White Tiger being in charge, which is not very peaceful. Divination on official positions: The official star and nobleman are both empty, indicating an inauspicious sign for seeking official positions. Divination on seeking wealth: The Azure Dragon, wealth爻, and parent爻 all initiate transmission together, so one should hurry to take it, or else it will be lost. Divination on visiting noble people: The night nobleman is on the day stem, indicating that starting a lesson at night is very auspicious. Divination on marriage: The man is worried about the nobleman being empty, and the woman is worried about the Heavenly General beingvicious, so it is likely that the marriage will not be successful. Divination on pregnancy: The mother is real but the child is empty, indicating that pregnancy may not be possible. Divination on illness: It is a disease of the liver and spleen, and it is likely to be difficult to recover. Divination on travel: Land travel is empty and subject to conflict, while water travel has unexpected worries. Divination on a missing person: TheThe Post-horse not seeing the sun, and the Tiangang is added to the beginning position, indicating that the person who has left home has not yet returned. Divination on military matters: Starting a lesson in the daytime will not be successful, and starting one at night is also inauspicious.

畢法云：權攝不正祿臨支，貴雖坐獄宜臨干，鬼乘天乙乃神祇，二貴皆空虛喜期，干墓並關人宅廢。指南：戊子二月亥將加未，占兵曰：游都居西南戀生，且離日辰遠，賊符臨干支，水陸必有伏兵。然乘死絕之氣，且初傳休囚夾克，末傳建旺制初，是守堅敵弱，不能持久。至丑年會金破局，即難支矣。

The "Bi Fa Fu" says: The position of an official is not properly named because the禄神 is present in the day branch; although the nobleman is sitting in a position of imprisonment, if it is present in the day stem, it is still considered appropriate; the official ghost riding on the heavenly nobleman indicates divine disturbances; when two noblemen are in an empty position, it is just a false joy; when the day stem's墓 is locked together, both person and dwelling will decline. The "Liu Yin Zhi Nan" records a case: In the year Wuzi, second month, with the month general亥 added to the hour of Wei, the divination about military affairs concluded: The star You Du is located in the southwest and is attached to the direction of life qi, and it is far from the day branch; the thief symbol is present in the stem and branch, indicating that there must be hidden troops on both land and water routes; however, it is riding on a dead and exhausted qi, the first transmission is weak and confined and is restricted by the夹克, while the final transmission is strong and controls the first transmission, showing that our side is well defended and the enemy's strength is weak, but cannot last long; by the year Chou, the triple harmony forms a metal circle, breaking the enemy's strength, and the enemy will be unable to sustain.

課體：重審，稼穡，飛魂，遊子。課義：錢財遍地，得不償費，兩貴俱空，虎丁可畏。解曰：三傳皆土，作乙木之財，財可謂旺矣。不知反生起支陰之巳火以脫干，是所得不償所費也。申子為乙日之貴人，今皆空陷，是已蒙允許，而被人攙越，不過虛喜而已。至於末傳，乃事之結果。而丑上遁丁，夜乘白虎，寧不可畏之甚乎。斷曰：重審之卦，一日稼穡，有艱難之象。凡事逼迫，不能由己。占者克盡辛勤，方能遂意。華蓋覆日，占行人則不歸，占逃亡則自歸。戌乘朱雀，當有惡犬吠人。

The lesson pattern is "Re-examination," "Cultivation and Harvest," "Flying Soul," and "Wandering Child." The three transmissions are You, Xu, and Chou, all earth, which is like cultivating and harvesting, called "Cultivation and Harvest." The four lines of "Lesson Meaning" say: wealth is everywhere, but the gain does not match the cost; two noblemen are empty, the White Tiger and the Ding spirit are most terrifying. Detailed explanation: the three transmissions are all earth, which is the wealth controlled by the wood stem Yi, so wealth is extremely strong. Who would have thought it would instead generate the hidden fire of the day branch's Yin spirit, Si, to drain the day stem. Therefore, the gain does not match the cost. The two noblemen, Shen and Zi, are the noblemen for the day stem Yi, but now they are both empty and trapped, meaning the matter has already been approved, but someone else has taken the lead, resulting in nothing but empty joy. As for the final transmission, it is the result of the matter, and the final transmission Chou has the hidden Ding spirit, which is occupied by the White Tiger at night, is it not extremely terrifying? Overall conclusion: the lesson pattern "Re-examination" combined with pure earth "Cultivation and Harvest" indicates a difficult omen. All matters are forced, one cannot take the initiative, the person seeking the divination must endure great hardship to achieve their desires. The Huagai covers the day stem, if it is about a traveler, they will not return; if it is about an escape, the person will return by themselves. Xu is occupied by the Vermilion Bird, there will be fierce barking from evil dogs.

天時：日已被墓，青龍昇天，天罡指陰，必然大雨。家宅：寅為乙木之兄弟，居宅脫宅，恐被失脫。仕宦：二貴皆空，占官不吉。求財：傳財太旺，反無所得。謁貴：恐不能遇。婚姻：日辰相剋，占婚不吉。胎產：晝占猶吉，夜占難產。疾病：肝氣受傷，或目痛腹疼。子孫乘虎，醫人不見效。出行：晝占陸路可行，夜占皆所不吉。行人：課名遊子，不能即返。出師：將不得力，夜占防敗。

Divination on weather: The day stem has been captured by the tomb god, the azure dragon ascends to heaven, and the tiangang points to the yin position, which definitely indicates heavy rain. Divination on the household: The寅 is the brother of the 乙 wood, residing in the house and draining the house's energy, which suggests the possibility of theft. Divination on career: Both noblemen are in an empty position, which is unfavorable for officialdom. Divination on seeking wealth: The wealth in the transmission is too strong, resulting in nothing gained. Divination on meeting a nobleman: It is likely that one will not meet them. Divination on marriage: The day and the hour are in mutual control, which is unfavorable for marriage. Divination on pregnancy: A daytime divination is favorable, but a nighttime one indicates difficulty in childbirth. Divination on illness: The liver is injured, or there is eye pain or stomach pain; the descendants' element is occupied by the white tiger, and the doctor will be ineffective. Divination on travel: A daytime divination allows travel by land, but a nighttime one indicates all directions are unfavorable. Divination on a missing person: The lesson is named 'Woyi' (Wanderer), and the person cannot return soon. Divination on military affairs: The general is ineffective, and a nighttime divination warns of possible defeat.

畢法云：賓主不投刑在上，於墓並關人宅廢；華蓋覆日人昏晦，二貴皆空虛喜期。纂要云：乙亥日未加辰，秋占，與關神相併，主人口衰替。假若加臨干支上，則為宅廢也。倘墓神作生氣，必作庫務差遣。不求自得，勿作關墓視之。

The "Bifa Fu" says: When the host and guest are not in harmony, it is because there is a刑 (legal punishment) above; when the day stem's墓 (burial) is also locked, both the person and the house will decline; when Huagai covers the day stem, human affairs become obscure and unclear; when two noblemen fall into emptiness, joy turns into nothingness. The "Lun Yin Zuan Yao" says: On a Yihai day, if the calculation starts with the hour of Wei added to Chen, and if it is in autumn with the 关神 (related deity) also present, it indicates the decline of family members. If it is placed on top of the heavenly stem and earthly branch, the house will be ruined. If theTomb Spirit (burial deity) meets theLife Qi (life energy), it will instead be assigned to manage the granary and take on duties, and one will naturally receive these without seeking, so it should not be considered as a 关墓 (related burial).

課體：重審，間傳，涉三淵，寡宿。課義：虎人朱雀，訟極凶惡，不論空亡，貴難倚托。解曰：畢法謂甲戌旬中，申加午發用者，為虎人朱雀。雖空不論，占訟最凶。夜貴空陷，坐於鬼方。晝貴入獄，皆難依託也。斷曰：間傳涉淵，有奔馳阻隔之象。出門無馬，渡河無舟，必先難而後易，苦去而甘來也。夜占丁虎克宅，災禍非小。或屋字坍塌，以致損人。或人口災病，謂之蛇虎乘丁格。

The lesson pattern is "Re-examination," "Intermediate Transmission," "Passing Three Deep Gorges," and "Gua Su." Intermediate Transmission refers to the three transmissions being connected with one position in between. The hours of Shen, Xu, and Zi descend step by step toward the water direction, as if crossing three deep gorges consecutively, which is called "Passing Three Deep Gorges." The four lines of the lesson meaning state: The White Tiger enters the position of the Vermilion Bird, indicating extreme misfortune in legal matters; even if it falls into Kongwang, it cannot alleviate the situation, and the Nobleman is not reliable. Detailed explanation: The "Bi Fa Fu" says that within the Jiaxu decade, if the transmission starts with Shen added to Wu, it is called "The Tiger Enters the Vermilion Bird." Even if it falls into Kongwang, it is not considered empty, and it is the most ominous for legal matters. In the night, the Nobleman falls into Kongwang and is in a depressed position, and it sits in the official ghost direction; in the day, the Nobleman falls into the prison position, and both are unreliable. Overall conclusion: Intermediate Transmission and passing three deep gorges indicate obstacles in movement: there is no vehicle or horse to travel, no boat to cross the river, and it will certainly be difficult at first but easy later, with hardship followed by ease. In the night, the Ding spirit and the White Tiger harm the family, causing significant misfortune: either the house collapses and injures people, or family members fall ill, which is called "The Snake and Tiger Ride the Ding Pattern."

天時：天空臨干，朱雀飛空，天罡指陽，必主大晴。家宅：丑丁克宅，極凶之象。仕宦：日德與貴人皆空，占官祿不利。求財：兩貴皆空，唯財獨存，求之可得。謁貴：晝占夜卜，皆不能遇。婚姻：支干相害，兩皆不吉。胎產：午為子息，胎必成，男產不甚吉。疾病：氣促傷殘，日德發用作空；占尊長病難痊。出行：陸路防詐，水路甚凶。行人：天罡加孟，且無日馬，行者未歸。出師：有失眾之象。

Divination on weather: The sky is over the day stem, the Vermilion Bird soars in the sky, and Tiangang points to the yang position, indicating definitely clear weather. Divination on the household: The Ding spirit on Chou branch overcomes the house, which is a very凶ous omen. Divination on official career: The day virtue and the nobleman both fall into emptiness, indicating unfavorable prospects for official position. Divination on seeking wealth: Both noblemen fall into emptiness, but the wealth element remains, so seeking wealth can be obtained. Divination on visiting noblemen: Whether the lesson is cast in the daytime or nighttime, one cannot meet them. Divination on marriage: The heavenly stem and earthly branch are in mutual harm, and both parties are not auspicious. Divination on pregnancy: Wu is the god of offspring, the fetus will surely be born, and it will be a male child, but the childbirth is not very auspicious. Divination on illness: Shortness of breath and body injuries; the day virtue initiates transmission but falls into emptiness, indicating that the illness of the superior is difficult to recover from. Divination on travel: On land, beware of people deceiving; on water, it is very凶ous. Divination on a traveler: Tiangang is on the first position, and the post-horse of the sun is not seen, indicating that the traveler has not returned yet. Divination on military affairs: There is an omen of losing troops.

畢法云：喜懼空亡乃妙機，兩貴受克難干貴，彼此猜忌害相隨。課經云：干上之午，晝乘天空，日干生亡神，上神生天將，名為脫上逢脫。凡占俱無中生有，盡被脫耗，又三傳皆是貴人，謂之貴多不貴。凡占權攝不一。反無依倚。如用夜貴，乃名咄目煞。若貴人咄目專視，反坐罪也。纂要云：兩蛇夾墓，病有積塊難愈。

The *Bi Fa Fu* says: When both joy and fear meet Kongwang, it is a subtle opportunity; when two Noblemen are both restrained, it is difficult to rely on them; when there is mutual suspicion, harmful qi follows. The *Liu Ren Ke Jing* says: When the Day Stem has a Wu (午) in the daytime and the sky Kong is on it, and the Day Stem goes to generate the Wangshen, and the upper god goes to generate the Heavenly General, this is called "Tuo Shang Feng Tuo" (double release): whatever is asked about will have nothing in the middle and be completely exhausted. If all three transmissions are Noblemen, it is called "Gui Du Bu Gui" (many Noblemen but not noble): whatever is asked about will be about proxy authority rather than being exclusive, and ultimately have no support. If the night Nobleman is used, it is called "Du Mu Sha" (blinking eye demon): the Nobleman looks angrily, and thus will be punished. The *Liu Ren Zuan Yao* says: When two Teng Snakes surround theTomb Spirit (ancestral spirit), there is a mass in the illness, which is hard to cure.

課體：元首，連茹，三奇。課義：拱虛一位，所欠財利，木命屬龍，方始遂意。解曰：此拱虛格也。日干為辰，日支為亥，干上乘巳，支上乘子，是子巳夾拱丑寅卯辰四神在內。而三傳尚無辰字，是辰乃所虛之一位也。辰乃乙木之財，所欠者非財利而何。倘占人本命屬辰，則財利全美，方為稱意也。斷曰：元首之卦，羅網高張，以尊制卑之象。事多順利，起於男子。白虎乘巳脫干，又遁旬鬼，恐被子孫脫漏之事。辰陰夜虎乘丁克宅，宅中驚恐。

The "Lesson Pattern" is "Original Head," "Connected Vegetables," and "Three Marvels": when the three transmissions are in the order of Chou, Yin, and Mao in sequence, it is called "Connected Vegetables." If the transmission contains the odd deities within the ten-day cycle, it is called "Three Marvels." The "Lesson Meaning" has four lines which say: between the heavenly stem and earthly branch there is a gap, and the missing one is precisely the wealth and fortune. If the person asking the question has a birth sign of Chen, then everything will go according to his wishes. Detailed explanation: this is the "Arching Void Pattern." The day stem, which is Yi wood, is located in the Chen palace. The day branch is Hai. The heavenly stem is riding on Si, and the earthly branch is riding on Zi. Between Zi and Si, the positions of Chou, Yin, Mao, and Chen are exactly in between. However, among the three transmissions of Chou, Yin, and Mao, Chen is missing. Chen is the wealth of Yi wood, so what is missing is not wealth and fortune? If the person asking the question has a birth sign of Chen, filling in this missing position will make wealth and fortune complete, thus fulfilling his wishes. Overall conclusion: the "Original Head" pattern shows a net being spread out, representing the superior controlling the inferior, with all matters proceeding smoothly, and things being initiated by a man. The White Tiger rides on Si, which drains and weakens the day stem. Si also represents the hidden metal official ghost from the ten-day cycle, so there may be losses related to the younger generation. The hidden spirit of Chen appears at night, riding on the White Tiger and the Ding deity to attack the family residence, causing fear within the home.

天時：水下火上，恐不能雨。家宅：日辰相剋，陰神相害，不安之象。仕宦；貴人臨支，日祿臨傳，春時占此，功名必得。求財：財爻雖發傳，蛇虎難當，得財亦險。謁貴：貴人臨宅，不招自至。婚姻：佳兒佳婦，匹配相宜。胎產：上強下弱，二陰包陽，產必生男。疾病：以病克人，占病不吉。出行：水陸俱佳，龍馬臨干，出行最吉。行人：天罡加仲，已在中途。出師：凡百驚疑，晝夜不利。

Divination on weather: Water is below and fire is above, it is feared that rain will not form. Divination on the household: The day stem and the heavenly stem are in mutual control, the yin spirit also harms, which is an ominous sign. Divination on official career: The nobleman is present at the day branch, the day stem's fortune enters the three transmissions, if this divination is made in spring, official success is certain. Divination on seeking wealth: The wealth element has already transmitted, but the Teng Snake and White Tiger are in charge, it is difficult to resist, there is risk in gaining wealth. Divination on meeting a nobleman: The nobleman is present at the household, one does not need to invite him, he will come himself. Divination on marriage: A good young man matches a good wife, it is very suitable. Divination on pregnancy: The upper is strong and the lower is weak, two yins surround one yang, the child born will certainly be a boy. Divination on illness: The disease element controls the body, divination on illness is not auspicious. Divination on travel: Both land and water routes are good, the Azure Dragon and the post-horse are present at the day stem, travel is most auspicious. Divination on a traveler: The Tiangang is added to the middle position, the person is already on the way. Divination on military use: Everything is alarming, neither day nor night is favorable.

畢法云：所謀多拙遭羅網。中黃經云：乙亥日巳加辰，子加亥，為天羅地網，蓋干支各乘羊刃。如網羅兜裹，不宜妄動。或年命沖破，乃為破羅破網。纂要云：乙日胎神在酉，上乘后合。十月占為私孕格，否，則婢妾有孕。

The "Bifa Fu" says: The plans made are mostly clumsy because they fall into a net. The "Zhonghuang Jing" says: On a Yihai day, if the巳 is placed over the辰 and the子 is placed over the亥, this is called "Tian Luo Di Wang" (Heavenly Net and Earthly Net). Because the heavenly stems and earthly branches each have the Yangren (Sharp Claws) on them, it is as if they are enclosed by a net, and it is not advisable to act rashly. If the person's year or destiny can break through this, it becomes "Po Luo Po Wang" (Breaking the Net and Breaking the Web), and there will be no obstruction. The "Liu Ren Zuan Yao" says: On a Yi day, the fetal god is in You. Above it is the Heavenly Empress and Liu He (Six Harmonies). If the class is started in the tenth month, it is called "Si Yun Ge" (Private Pregnancy Pattern); otherwise, it indicates a servant woman's pregnancy.

課體：伏吟，自任，元胎。課義：祿財錯綜，晝空無用，寅馬為生，夜虎凶動。解曰：巳乃日祿，既乘天空；申乃日財，又值旬空，晝占俱無用矣。寅，馬也。晝占乘六合為生，夜占乘白虎為克，故主凶動也。

The lesson pattern is "Hidden Chant," "Self-Responsibility," and "Original Embryo." The four lines of the lesson meaning state: The god of official rank and the god of wealth are confused and unclear, and both are ineffective when the lesson is cast in the daytime;寅 is the original master of the post-horse, but at night it is ridden by the White Tiger, leading to danger and reckless movement. Detailed explanation:巳 is the day's official rank for丙 fire, but it is riding the sky;申 is the day's wealth for丙 fire, yet it is exactly in the旬 empty position, so both are not useful when the lesson is cast in the daytime.寅 is the post-horse, and when the lesson is cast in the daytime, it rides theLiu He, which is mutually generating; but when the lesson is cast at night, it rides the White Tiger, which is mutually controlling, thus indicating danger and reckless movement.

斷曰：此伏吟自任之卦，一名元胎。為伏而未發，屈而未伸之象。利上不利下，利遠不利近。守則有功，觸則生患。當閉塞柔順以應之，苟不獲已而後動，或動中有成。天空到巳，謂之受辱，亦名投絕。幸作日祿，稍足解之。然中空無力，事主變易。

General interpretation: This is a lesson of hidden chant (伏吟) with self-assignment, also known as "original embryo" (元胎), representing an image of something concealed and not yet revealed, bent but not yet extended. It is favorable for higher positions and distant matters, but unfavorable for lower positions and nearby matters; maintaining a firm position brings success, but any disturbance brings trouble. One should keep things concealed and act with flexibility to deal with it. If one must act due to necessity, there might still be some achievement. The sky (天空) falling on the snake (巳) is called "suffering disgrace" (受辱) or "abandoning the end" (投绝). Fortunately, the snake is also the day's禄 (lucky hour), which can somewhat alleviate the situation. However, the middle transmission (中传) falls into emptiness and lacks strength, indicating that the matter is subject to change and uncertainty.

天時：晝占久晴，有雨不大，夜占始霧後風。家宅：主有孤寡之人，家堂神像不寧。婚姻：主女家微賤，或兵家女。胎產：主女或聾啞。功名：緩得。求財：未遂意。投謁：主客不和，徒勞無益。疾病：主不能言語，宜祈家堂神像。失脫：主家內人盜去，難尋，逃者隱鄉鄰家。出行：近處，利夜占，有驚恐。行人：中途有阻。爭訟：宜解。兵戰：不順利，主半途而止。

Divination on weather: If the lesson is cast during the day, it indicates prolonged clear weather, even if there is rain, it will not be heavy; if the lesson is cast at night, it suggests first mist then wind. Divination on the household: indicates there are orphans or the elderly living alone in the family, and the household gods in the ancestral hall are restless. Divination on marriage: indicates the bride's family is of low status, or she comes from a military household. Divination on pregnancy: indicates the birth of a daughter, or the child may have deafness or muteness. Divination on official rank: success will come slowly. Divination on seeking wealth: things will not go as desired. Divination on visiting someone: indicates the visitor and the host are not in harmony, and efforts will be in vain. Divination on illness: indicates the patient cannot speak, and it is advisable to pray to the household gods. Divination on lost items: indicates the item was stolen by a family member, and it is difficult to recover; the person who ran away is hiding in a neighbor's home. Divination on travel: travel is suitable only for short distances, and lessons cast at night are favorable, but there will still be fear. Divination on a traveler: there will be obstacles on the way. Divination on disputes: it is advisable to reconcile. Divination on military matters: it is not smooth, and the mission may be abandoned halfway.

畢法云：賓主不投刑在上，任信丁馬須言動。課經訂訛云：天地鬼神，不動不克，無所取，擇自任。其剛進用於時，故名自任。若任已過剛，必成愆咎。指南：辛未四月酉將，占東省地方安否。曰：日上勾陳月建被支之元武將星剋制，且乘天鬼凶煞，主有伏地兵作亂。又傳將遞克，伏吟見丁馬，官防參劾。後果驗。

The *Bifa Fu* says: When the host and guest are not in harmony, it is because there is a punishment above; if there is the deity Ding and the post-horse, then movement should be considered. The *Liu Ren Ke Jing Ding E* says: If the heavenly and earthly spirits do not move, they do not mutually control, and there is nothing to take as a basis; one must then take the deity on the day stem as the basis. It is called "self-reliance" because it is strong and advances continuously. If self-reliance is too strong, it will certainly lead to mistakes. The *Liu Ren Zhi Nan* records a case: In the year Xinwei, in the fourth lunar month, with You as the month general, a question was asked about the peace in Shandong. The answer was: The Gou Chen on the day stem and the month general are controlled by the Yuanwu on the day branch, and they are accompanied by the heavenly ghost, aInauspicious Sha. This indicates there are hidden soldiers causing disturbances among the people. Moreover, the three transmissions are successively controlled by the heavenly generals, and there is a hidden chant with the deity Ding and the post-horse. Officials should beware of being impeached. Later, it proved true.

課體：知一，退茹，斬關，六儀，泆女。課義：病死墓絕，彼此不悅，病訟再興，財如鬼奪。解曰：丙火病於申，死於酉，墓於戌，絕於亥，四者咸備，凶可知矣。支上亥克丙，干上辰克子，是彼此不相悅也。墓神發用，凶遇墓止。但晝夜俱乘天后而克干，病訟再興，實由於此。申酉乃日之財，中末連空，一若鬼奪以去，雖孟積貯，何可得哉。

The lesson pattern is "Zhi Yi," "Tui Ru," "Zhan Guan," "Liu Yi," and "Yi Nu": the three transmissions are戌, 酉, and 申, which retreat in order, called "Tui Ru." The position where the first day of the ten days is hidden by the day stem is called "Liu Yi." The lesson meaning consists of four lines, which state that four kinds of decline positions—disease, death, tomb, and extinction—are all present, and they do not like each other. Both disease and litigation are revived, and wealth seems to be taken away by ghosts. Detailed explanation: the fire of Bing is in the position of申, which is disease; in酉, it is death; in戌, it enters the tomb; and in亥, it reaches extinction. These four kinds of decline positions are all present, and the danger is evident. The亥 in the day branch restrains the fire of Bing, and the辰 in the day stem restrains the water of Zi, which is the mutual dislike between them. The tomb god is in action, and misfortune should be stopped by the tomb; however, both day and night are occupied by the Heavenly Empress to restrain the day stem, causing disease and litigation to rise again, which is the root of the problem. The positions of申 and酉 are the wealth of the day, but the middle and final transmissions are continuously empty, as if taken away by ghosts. Even if one wants to accumulate, how can it be retained?

斷曰：此知一之卦，又名退茹。課傳厄塞，動多阻礙。進既遇刑而不和，退又陷空而無得。惟利解釋，不利謀干，事多起於同類。內戰危疑，恩中有害。和同則吉，乖異則凶。又天后並臨於戌，亦名泆女，有闇昧陰私之象。

Total interpretation: This is the "Zhi Yi" lesson, also known as "Tui Ru." The four lessons and three transmissions are blocked and unsmooth, with many obstacles whenever there is movement: attempting to advance meets punishment and lacks harmony, while retreating leads to emptiness and no gain. It is favorable for resolving matters and settling things, but unfavorable for seeking progress. Matters mostly originate from peers and similar kinds. There is internal conflict and uncertainty, with benefits that conceal harm: harmony and agreement bring good fortune, while discord and separation bring misfortune. Additionally, the Heavenly Empress is present together at the戌 position, also called "Yi Nu," indicating an image of secrecy and private matters.

天時：有雨且大，夜占即止。家宅：吉，防婢妾小人有越禮之事。婚姻：不宜。胎產：主生女，防臨盆不育。功名：宜進不宜退。投謁：晝占宜見貴，主有文字之事，十分如意。求財：可得而反覆。疾病：主咽隔，因食而得，宜下之。失脫：難尋，逃亡亦難獲。出行：疑惑不前。行人：占女人即至。爭訟：不成，已成有解。兵戰：賊猛，不可輕擊，宜遷營。

Divination on weather: There will be rain and it will be heavy; the divination should be stopped at night. Divination on the household:吉利, but beware of servants and petty people who may act improperly. Divination on marriage: Not suitable. Divination on childbirth: It indicates the birth of a daughter; beware of the possibility of the child not surviving at birth. Divination on official rank: It is suitable to strive forward rather than retreat. Divination on visiting a superior: It is suitable to meet a nobleman in the daytime, indicating matters related to documents, which will be very favorable. Divination on seeking wealth: It can be obtained, but with reversals. Divination on illness: It indicates obstruction in the throat, caused by diet; it is suitable to use purgative methods. Divination on lost items: Difficult to find; those who have fled are also hard to catch. Divination on travel: Uncertainty, unable to proceed. Divination on a traveler: If it is about a woman, she will arrive immediately. Divination on disputes: The lawsuit cannot be filed; even if a case has already been filed, there is a possibility of reconciliation. Divination on military affairs: The enemy is fierce; it is not advisable to attack lightly, and it is better to move the camp.

畢法云：魁度天門關隔定，鬼乘天乙乃神祇，干墓並關人宅廢，夫婦蕪淫各有私。括囊賦云：不備蕪淫，必有陰私而起譖；拔茅連茹，何妨類聚以求財。纂要云：魁度天門，凡事有阻。又云：亥加支鬼乘天乙，乃家堂神祇。

The *Bifa Fu* says: When Hekui crosses over the Heavenly Gate, the situation is already fixed and unchangeable; when the official ghost rides upon the nobleman, it indicates divine interference; when the day stem's burial is locked up, both people and the dwelling will decline; husband and wife each have foreign intentions, and both have private feelings. The *Kuanang Fu* says: When the lesson pattern is incomplete and encounters vulgar indulgence, there must be private matters leading to slander; when the three transmissions are like pulling out weeds by their roots, layer by layer connected, it is not bad to seek wealth by relying on similar groups. The *Lunin Zuan Yao* says: When Hekui passes through the Heavenly Gate, all matters will encounter obstacles. It also says: When亥 is placed upon the day branch, the official ghost rides upon the nobleman, indicating household deities.

課體：重審，斬關，極陰，三奇。課義：身敗瘦瘠，墓神克宅，乘旬丁旺，舊財可得。解曰：卯乃丙火敗脫之神，身被敗脫，難免瘦瘠。戌乃丙火之墓，覆支克支，宅象昏晦矣。亥雖克丙，幸得丑為救神。酉財雖居鬼鄉，而丑乘旬丁，亦可以助其丙火之力，舊財何不可得之有。晝夜貴人俱不得地，雖入傳無益也。

The lesson pattern is "Re-examination," "Cutting the Gate," "Extreme Yin," and "Three Marvels." The four lines of the lesson meaning state: the day stem is weakened and detached, leading to a thin and weak appearance, and the tomb god is harming the family dwelling; fortunately, the branch of Chou is supported by the heavenly stem Ding of this旬, thus gaining strength, and old money can still be recovered. Detailed explanation: the branch of Mao is the place where the fire of Bing is bathed and weakened, thus the self is drained and inevitably appears thin. The branch of Xu is the tomb of fire, covering the day branch and attacking it, indicating a dark image for the family dwelling. The branch of Hai although it controls the fire, is fortunately supported by the earth of Chou as a saving god. The wealth爻 of You, although sitting in the land of official ghosts, can also strengthen the fire because of the Ding in Chou, so old wealth will certainly be recovered. However, the two noblemen of day and night are not in a favorable position, so even if they enter the three transmissions, there is no benefit.

斷曰：此間傳之卦，卦體課傳俱陰，故名極陰，利於暗中私求密禱。丑發用為臺土當門，出入隔礙。朱雀主口舌文詞，勾陳卞留連禁錮。日干上卯雖曰生助，實以敗干，占者不可不慎。喜丑作旬奇，日精備焉。占事可有意外之獲。

Total interpretation: This is a lesson of the intermediate transmission. The hexagram and the four lessons and three transmissions are all yin, so it is called "extreme yin." It is suitable for secret prayers and petitions in private. The丑 (Chou) initiates the transmission, with the earthly branch of the terrace soil at the gate, causing obstruction in coming and going. The Vermilion Bird governs speech and documents, while Gou Chen governs delays and restrictions. Although the卯 (Mao) on the day stem is said to assist the day stem, in reality it is draining the day stem. The person divining should be cautious. Fortunately, the丑 (Chou) serves as a strange divine spirit of the ten-day cycle, with the essence of the day fully present, so there may be unexpected gains in the matter being divined.

天時：久陰淫雨，暫晴即變。家宅：主見怪異，或有伏尸。婚姻：阻滯未成。胎產：防損墮。功名：求貴得薦舉。求財：無得，得亦易耗。投謁：晝占宜見貴，有文字之事遂意。疾病：宜服通利之劑，逢春即見凶。失脫：難尋。出行：路多阻折，難行。行人：本日可到。爭訟：宜得貴人調解，不解必敗。兵戰：不利，惟秋八月大吉，見酉尤佳。

Divination on the weather: prolonged darkness and continuous rain, with temporary clearing followed by change. Divination on the household: indicates encountering strange phenomena or the presence of a corpse. Divination on marriage: obstacles prevent success. Divination on pregnancy: beware of miscarriage. Divination on official rank: seeking recommendation from a nobleman can lead to success. Divination on seeking wealth: unable to obtain, and if obtained, it is easily lost. Divination on visiting: during the day, it is suitable to meet a nobleman, and matters concerning documents will be fulfilled. Divination on illness: suitable to take purgative medicine; by spring the illness will become dangerous. Divination on lost items: difficult to find. Divination on travel: many obstacles on the way, making travel difficult. Divination on a traveler: can arrive on the same day. Divination on disputes: it is suitable to have a nobleman mediate; without mediation, defeat is certain. Divination on military matters: unfavorable, except for the eighth month of autumn which is most auspicious, especially when the酉神 is seen.

畢法云：晝夜貴加求兩貴，支乘墓虎有伏尸。課經云：陰主退，自丑逆傳而極於酉，有陰入陰之象，凡占有闇昧不明之事。精蘊云：戌加子，夜乘螣蛇克支，宅中當有怪異頻見。

The "Bifa Fu" says: If the nobleman appears at both day and night and both are placed together, it is favorable to seek the support of two noblemen; if the day branch is occupied by theTomb Spirit and also by the White Tiger, there is a corpse lying in the house. The "Liu Ren Ke Jing" says: Yin represents retreat and shrinking, if the three transmissions start from Chou and proceed in reverse until You, there is an appearance of Yin entering Yin, and whatever is questioned will involve obscure and unclear matters. The "Da Liu Ren Jing Yun" says: If Xu is placed on Zi, during the night it rides the Teng Snake to attack the day branch, there will be frequent strange occurrences in the house.

課體：元首，三交，二煩，軒蓋。課義：馬載長生，酉財難侵，夜元晝虎，占婢逃淫。解曰：寅乃丙火長生，上乘祿馬。酉乃丙火之財，坐於鬼方。恃其子而伐我生，財之所以難侵也。酉，婢也，午火臨於奴婢，夜元晝虎，必有奸私逃走之事。寅固生干，酉亦生支，而反敗其支，又作旬空，不可作俱生論。

The lesson pattern is "Yuan Shou," "San Jiao," "Er Fan," and "Xuan Gai." The four lines of the lesson meaning state: The post-horse carries the god of growth, yet the wealth in酉 is difficult to obtain; at night it is accompanied by the Black Tortoise and during the day by the White Tiger, indicating that if this is about servants, it suggests private fleeing and licentiousness. Detailed explanation:寅 is the place of growth for丙 fire, and it is occupied by the禄 god and the post-horse.酉 is the wealth of丙 fire, but it is seated in the official ghost direction, relying on子 water to attack my growth, so this wealth is difficult to obtain.酉 represents a servant, and午 fire is located at the servant's position. At night it is accompanied by the Black Tortoise and during the day by the White Tiger, indicating certain incidents of infidelity and fleeing. Although寅 can give birth to the day stem and酉 can also give birth to the day branch, it actually harms the day branch and falls into the旬 empty, so it cannot be considered as both giving birth to the day stem and day branch.

斷曰：此元首之卦，又名軒蓋，為居尊制卑之象。事起男子，正大光明，百凡順利。且仲神加支辰，陰陽三傳皆仲，六合入課入傳，三者交加，應姤九五含章之吉。君子占之，獲福宜矣。但午虎乘遁鬼，又坐空亡，名為喪馬。午加酉為死交，兼犯天地二煩，小人占之，但取其咎。

Total interpretation: This is the "Original Chief" lesson, also known as "Xuanguai," which represents the image of holding a high position and controlling those below: the matter is initiated by a man, it is open and upright, and all things proceed smoothly. Moreover, the Zhong spirit is placed on the day branch, and the three transmissions are all Zhong spirits. TheLiu He is present in both the four lessons and the three transmissions, with the three converging, which corresponds to the auspicious omen of the "Hanzhang" in the ninth line of the fifth in the Book of Changes, the Gou hexagram. A gentleman who divines this will certainly gain blessings. However, the午 fire is riding on the official ghost of the ten-day cycle and is sitting on Kongwang, which is called "sacrificing the horse." The午 is placed on the酉, which is "death meeting," and it also violates the two evils, Tianfan and Difan. A petty person who divines this should only take the adverse consequences.

畢法云：虎乘遁鬼殃非淺。觀月經云：勝光本是馬，太沖本是車；神后為華蓋，三傳定不虛；明君加寵祿，聖主賜天書。曾門云：三交之因，家匿罪人。心鏡云：弦望晦朔天煩合，男犯刑傷被利纏；子午卯酉地煩會，女人流血復迍邅。

The "Bifa Fu" says: When the White Tiger is on the official ghost of the ten-day cycle, calamity is severe. The "Guan Yueling" says: Shengguang (Wu) is originally a horse, Taichong (Mao) is originally a chariot, Shenhou (Zi) is Huagai; if the three transmissions include these, the judgment will certainly be accurate: a virtuous ruler will bestow favor and rewards, and a sage ruler will grant heavenly scriptures. The "Zeng Men" says: The three intersections form a pattern because there is a criminal hidden in the house. The "Xin Jing" says: On the days of the waxing moon, full moon, new moon, and dark moon, the heavens are in conjunction, and men will suffer from injuries and be entangled by sharp weapons; on the positions of Zi, Wu, Mao, and You, the earth is in conjunction, and women will suffer from bleeding and further difficulties.
