The Earthly Gate is private.
Charting guides: Qi Men Dun Jia Chart
以天月將加用時,看貴神所泊何宮,即於貴神上起貴神、螣蛇、朱雀、六合、勾陳、青龍、天空、白虎、太常、元武、太陰、天后,順逆而行,陽貴神出於先天之坤,子上起甲干順布,乙癸在丑,庚與乙合,戊與癸合,取干德為貴神,故庚戊二干,陽貴神在丑也;己干在未,甲與己合,故甲干陽貴神在未也。自亥至辰為陽貴順流,自巳至戌為陰貴逆行。若得太陰、太常、六合之神與奇門同臨其方,百事大吉。陽時宜擊,陰時宜陜,陽先舉,陰後應。凡欲擊者,謂破而擊之;陜者,密而去之,其敗軍宜向六合下走得出也。
The method for seeking the "Earth Private Gate" is: place the Heavenly and Monthly Generals on the hour of the event, and observe where the noble spirit stops. Then count from the noble spirit's position the twelve spirits: noble spirit, qing snake, vermilion bird, liu he, gou chen, azure dragon, sky void, white tiger, tai chang, black tortoise, tai yin, and heavenly empress, arranging them in order according to yang ascending and yin descending. The yang noble spirit starts from the Kun position of the Earlier Heaven Trigrams, beginning from the Zi position with the Jia stem in ascending order. The Yi and癸 stems fall on the Chou position; the Geng stem combines with the Yi stem, and the Wu stem combines with the Kui stem, taking the virtue of the heavenly stems' combination as the noble spirit, so the yang noble spirits of the Geng and Wu stems are both on the Chou position. The Ji stem falls on the Wei position, and since the Jia stem combines with the Ji stem, the yang noble spirit of the Jia stem is on the Wei position. From Hai to Chen is the yang noble spirit ascending section, and from Si to Xu is the yin noble spirit descending section. If the Tai Yin, Tai Chang, and Liu He spirits are simultaneously present with the Qimen in a certain direction, then doing anything in that direction is highly auspicious. In yang hours, it is suitable to attack; in yin hours, it is suitable to hide. In yang hours, the action should be initiated first, and in yin hours, it should be followed up.the so-called "attack" means breaking through the enemy's formation and attacking it;所谓 "retreat" means withdrawing secretly. If a defeated army wishes to escape, it should break through in the direction of Liu He, thereby escaping safely.
以六合、太陰、太常三辰,依圖推看何方日支。自子至巳為陽,用陽貴神,自午至亥為陰,用陰貴神。假如丁亥日,亥為陽日,丙丁豬雞位,則亥豬為陽日貴神,須將貴神加亥上順數去,卻是六合、太陰、太常在何處?即是地私門,只是論日不論時,然須得奇門方可用。
Using the three deities of Liu He, Tai Yin, and Tai Chang, follow the diagram to determine where they fall on the day branch. From Zi to Si, which are yang branches, use the yang noble deity; from Wu to Hai, which are yin branches, use the yin noble deity. For example, on a Ding Hai day, Hai is a yang branch. According to the rule "Jing Ding noble is in Zhu and Ji," the noble deity for Ding stem is in Hai (Zhu), so Hai is the position of the noble deity for this yang day. Place the noble deity at the Hai position and count forward to determine where Liu He, Tai Yin, and Tai Chang fall. The positions where these deities fall are called "Di Si Men." This method only considers the day, not the hour, but it is still necessary for the qi and men to be compatible for use.
又一例,審太陽過宮,以月將加用時,尋本日貴人起星,求地私門。如正月亥加甲日辰時,即以亥加辰順數去,尋本日陽貴未到子,陽貴順行,則螣蛇在丑,朱雀在寅,六合在卯為地私門,勾陳在辰,青龍在巳,天空在午,白虎在未,太常在申為地私門,玄武在酉,太陰在戌為地私門,天后在亥。如用陰貴,亦以亥加辰,陰貴丑到午,陰貴逆行,則螣蛇在巳,朱雀在辰,六合在卯為地私門,勾陳在寅,青龍在丑,天空在子,白虎在亥,太常在戌為地私門,元武在酉,太陰在申為地私門,天后在未,餘皆仿此。
For example, first determine the position of the sun, place the month general on the hour of the event, find the position of the nobleman for that day, and then start the twelve spirits. For instance, in the first lunar month, the亥 general is placed on the甲 day and 辰 hour. By moving from亥 to 辰 in a clockwise direction, the position of the yang nobleman, which is 未, is found to be at 子. Since the yang nobleman moves in a clockwise direction, 螣蛇 is at 丑, Vermilion Bird at 寅, Liu He at 卯 (this is the position of the earth private door), Gou Chen at 辰, Azure Dragon at 巳, 天空 at 午, White Tiger at 未, 太常 at 申 (this is the position of the earth private door), Black Tortoise at 酉, 太阴 at 戌 (this is the position of the earth private door), and Heavenly Empress at 亥. If instead the yin nobleman is used, the亥 general is again placed on 辰. The yin nobleman, which is 丑, is found to be at 午. Since the yin nobleman moves counterclockwise, 螣蛇 is at 巳, Vermilion Bird at 辰, Liu He at 卯 (this is the position of the earth private door), Gou Chen at 寅, Azure Dragon at 丑, 天空 at 子, White Tiger at 亥, 太常 at 戌 (this is the position of the earth private door), Black Tortoise at 酉, 太阴 at 申 (this is the position of the earth private door), and Heavenly Empress at 未. It is clear that the earth private door always takes the positions of Liu He, 太常, and 太阴, and the rest are determined in the same way.
The Three Marvels are overcome by their response.

If the Yi Marvel encounters the Open Door Gate, one will hear the sound of officials reading documents. If the Yi Marvel coincides with the Xiu Men Gate, one will see cattle or horses, or people carrying wooden beams. When the Yi Marvel combines with the Life Gate or the Bing Marvel, one will see someone wearing mourning clothes being bitten by a rat, and one should wait until an old woman appears to confirm it. If the Bing Marvel meets the Open Door Gate, there will be thunder or an old man holding a staff appearing with authority.

The Three Marvels are considered valid and applicable for divination.
乙奇遇青龍返首,丙奇東南是跌穴,丁奇西貴升壇,回首喜悅百易遂逐,跌穴顯灼事成就,龍逃身遭百凶,虎狂兮財虛耗盡,妖矯逢盜染官訟。
When the Yi Qi meets "Wu," there is joy in the heart and everything goes smoothly. When the Bing Qi is in the southeast, it forms "Flying Birds' Nest," which means things become prominent and easy to achieve. When the Ding Qi is in the west, it forms "Nobleman Ascending the Platform," indicating favorable circumstances. If "Wu" occurs, there is joy and smoothness in all affairs. If "Flying Birds' Nest" occurs, things become prominent and achievements are easy. Conversely, if "Azure Dragon Flees," one faces various dangers. If "White Tiger Rages," wealth is completely lost. If "Tang She You Jiao" occurs, one may encounter thieves and get involved in legal disputes. This is a method of contrasting the auspicious and inauspicious aspects of the Three Marvels to determine fortune and misfortune.

When the Six Ding (六丁) arrive at the Dui palace, it is of average fortune. On days of Bing, Ding, Si, or Wu, if red clouds come from the south to assist, the guest side will prevail. Another interpretation says that when Ding arrives at the Dui palace, it indicates the location of Tianyi Guiren (天乙贵人), meaning the nobleman is seated in the "Dingyou Zhengdian" (丁酉正殿), which is very auspicious.
Dun Jia benefits the one who arrives first, with the later arrival being the guest.
天英加坎宮,利為主,加在秋冬月及壬、癸、亥、子日,有黑色雲從正北方來助,主大勝。天任、天禽、天芮加震、巽,利為主。如在春、夏之月,甲、乙、寅、卯日,青色雲氣從東南方及正東方來助,主大勝。天蓬加坤、艮,利為主。如在四季月及戊、己、辰、戌、丑、未日,有黃色雲氣從東北或西南方來助,主大勝。
The concept of host and guest refers to the one arriving first being the host and the one arriving later being the guest. If Tianying Star is placed over the Kan Palace, it is advantageous for the host side; if it is in the month of autumn or winter and on days of Ren, Gui, Hai, or Zi with black clouds coming from the due north, the host side will achieve a great victory. If Tianren Star and Tianqin Star are placed over the Zhen Palace and Xun Palace, it is also advantageous for the host side; if it is in the month of spring or summer and on days of Jia, Yi, Yin, or Mao with green clouds coming from the southeast or due east, the host side will achieve a great victory. If Tianpeng Star is placed over the Kun Palace and Gen Palace, it is advantageous for the host side; if it is in the season months and on days of Wu, Ji, Chen, Xu, Chou, or Wei with yellow clouds coming from the northeast or southwest, the host side will achieve a great victory. The common principle of these situations is that the stars on the Heaven Plate are controlled by the Palaces on the Earth Plate, and the one who occupies the land first gains the advantage, so it is better to defend than to attack.
Dun Jia is advantageous for guests.
天蓬加九宮利為客,如在秋冬之月,壬、癸、亥、子日,有黑色雲氣自北方來助,客勝。天心、天柱加三、四宮利為客。如在三秋四季月,庚、辛、申、酉日,有白色雲氣從西方來助,客大勝。天任、天禽、天芮加一宮,利為客。如在四季月,戊、己、辰、戌、丑、未日,有黃色雲氣從西南或正南方來助者,客大勝。
The Tianpeng Star added to the ninth palace is favorable for the guest side; if it is also in the months of autumn and winter, on days of Ren or Gui, and on days of Hai or Zi, with black clouds coming from the north to assist, the guest side will prevail. The Tianxin and Tianzhu Stars added to the third and fourth palaces are favorable for the guest side; if it is also in the third season and fourth season months, on days of Geng or Xin, and on days of Shen or You, with white clouds coming from the west to assist, the guest side will achieve a great victory. The Tianren, Tianqin, and Tianrui Stars added to the first palace are favorable for the guest side; if it is also in the fourth season months, on days of Wu or Ji, and on days of Chen, Xu, Chou, or Wei, with yellow clouds coming from the southwest or due south to assist, the guest side will achieve a great victory.
天輔、天沖加二、八宮利為客。如在冬、春月,甲、乙、寅、卯日,有青色雲氣自東方或東南方來助,客大勝。天英加六、七宮,利為客。如在春、夏月,丙、丁、巳、午日,有赤色雲氣從南方來助,客大勝。
The stars Tianfu and Tianchong, when added to the second and eighth palaces, are favorable for the guest side; if they also occur in the months of winter or spring, on days of Jia, Yi, Yin, or Mao, and if there is green cloud coming from the east or southeast to assist, the guest side will achieve a great victory.

The common principle behind these statements is that the stars on the Heaven Plate overcome the palaces on the Earth Plate, and the one that moves later can overcome the one that moved first, so it is better to attack than to defend. Further verification can be made by the color and direction of the clouds, and the outcome of victory or defeat can be known in advance.
