Special Lu Control Pattern

Special Lu Control Pattern

Overall Paraphrase

The Special Lu Control Pattern specifically refers to the situation where a Geng (庚) day stem is born during the Si (巳) hour. Si is the "birthplace" or "longevity" position for Geng Metal🌱, and it secretly contains Bing Fire (the Seven Killings star 🔥) and Wu Earth (the Partial Seal star ⛰). At this time, Ren and Gui Water🌊 are needed to control the Bing Fire Killing star, enabling one to become a commander with military authority. If the luck cycle encounters the Seven Killings Fire luck, it conversely becomes an ominous sign.

Poetic Interpretation:
Geng Metal's Special Lu is born in the Si hour,
Controlling the Killing star reveals exceptional ability,
Holding military authority and commander's seal in hand,
When the Seven Killings luck arrives, calamity strikes suddenly.
