True Fraud (真诈)
What it means
True Fraud (真诈) is the Three Wonders with the Three Auspicious Doors meeting Tai Yin (太阴): Heaven Plate Yi, Bing, Ding (乙、丙、丁) with Open, Rest, and Life Doors (开门、休门、生门), plus Tai Yin.
Favorable for genuine deception—true use of fraud.
Also good for granting favors, hiding and withdrawing, seeking the Dao, traveling in concealment; favorable for launching campaigns, pacifying rebels, and secret plotting.
If the other party has a Three-Fraud pattern, they may be insincere, slippery, manipulative, or even fraudulent—stay on guard.
If our side has it, we may need deceptive tactics to succeed; the pattern favors stratagem.
In marriage readings the Three-Fraud pattern is also a "fill-the-room" pattern: if the woman has it, she may become a secondary wife or concubine.
For a woman asking about marriage, the man may already have a household or have been married.
In practice: avoid becoming the other woman; or prefer a previously married man, which can be more favorable.
