San Ming Tong Hui — Comprehensive Guide to Destiny
The Jishan Chapter states: When a Ren day is born in the Wu position (e.g., Renwu day), it is called Lu and Ma Sharing the Same Homeland; when a Gui day sits in the Si palace (e.g., Guisi day), it is termed Wealth and Official Stars in Harmony. Here, "Lu" represents the official star, and "wealth" represents the horse star, with both phrases sharing the same essence. Ren takes Ding Fire 🔥 as the wealth horse and Ji Earth ⛰ as the official Lu, both rooted in the Wu position; Gui takes Bing Fire 🔥 as the proper wealth and Wu Earth ⛰ as the proper official, both rooted in the Si position. In a person's Bazi, Lu, Ma, wealth, and official stars are rarely found together, let alone seated directly under the day branch (self-contained in the day pillar), making this configuration highly esteemed. This pattern favors autumn births (Metal旺 🌬 generates Earth, while Wood 🌱 is weak and cannot overcome Earth), which helps avoid disasters; if Wood 🌱 is strong in Yin or Mao, it becomes showy but insubstantial; winter births (Water 🌊 in power) lead to nobility reaching the level of princes or dukes. If the Bazi already has wealth and official stars, and the birth day is Renwu or Guisi, it enhances the configuration's efficacy. For example, in the case: Jichou, Dingmao, Renwu, Guimao, where Ding and Ji appear in the year and month pillars and return to the Lu under the day branch, aligning with this pattern, it signifies great wealth and nobility. Luoluozi says: Those with Lu and Ma sharing the same homeland attain high official positions (such as third-tier or eight-seat ranks). It also states: Noble people enjoying official salaries are none other than those with Lu and Ma sharing the same homeland. Days like Jiaxu, Yichou, and Yisi also carry wealth and official stars in their day branches, but the Classic specifically selects Renwu and Guisi days because Ren and Gui sit on proper wealth and proper official stars (pure and upright), while the wealth and official stars in other day branches may be mixed or impure. By analogy: Jiaxu and Yichou days favor Metal and Earth months for wealth and nobility, but excessive Metal 🌬 may harm the self; without official nobility, wealth can still be attained. Bingshen and Dingchou days favor Metal and Wood months for nobility, but heavy Earth ⛰ is avoided as it overcomes the official star. Jihai days are suitable for births in the four seasonal Earth months. Gengyin days favor Fire 🔥, especially noble births after the winter solstice when Fire is strong; autumn births with Fire are even better. For example, Emperor Taizong of Tang's case: Bingwu, Gengzi, Renwu, Bingwu, where Ren is strong in the Zi month, clashes with the year stem Bing Fire, two Bings appear together, clashing with the day stem Geng Metal (Xiao and Shi), Geng avoids Bing and moves to the Wu position, forming the "Six Ren Exchange" pattern of Water and Fire in harmony 🌊🔥, hence great nobility. Greatly noble destinies often combine multiple patterns, benefiting from various sources, and are not considered chaotic due to multiple patterns. An ancient verse says: Lu and Ma sharing the same homeland without clash or seizure, wealth and official stars together bring the greatest glory; third-tier and eight-seat ranks are truly rare and noble, but if clashed or seized, fame and gain suffer.

Lu and Ma Sharing the Same Homeland and Wealth and Official Stars in Harmony emphasize the day pillar's self-contained wealth and official stars (the foundation of wealth and career), reflecting the core Bazi concept that "a solid foundation leads to nobility." Renwu and Guisi days are considered pure and unadulterated in wealth and official stars, symbolizing a smooth life, but they require alignment with the monthly order (e.g., strong Metal in autumn) and the interplay of the Five Elements (e.g., Wood not overcoming Earth) to enhance noble energy.
In modern society, this mirrors the balanced development of career and wealth. Those born on Renwu or Guisi days (or with similar patterns) may inherently possess resource integration abilities, making them suitable for entrepreneurship or management roles. Autumn births (strong Metal) suggest favorable external environments (e.g., economic cycles); winter births (strong Water) symbolize rising from crises. However, "strong Yin or Mao leads to showiness without substance" warns that excessive pursuit of superficial glamour (e.g., empty fame) can lead to hollowness, necessitating practical accumulation.
This pattern reveals the Eastern philosophy that "inner foundation determines external achievements"—wealth and official stars seated in the day branch act as life anchors, reminding modern individuals that in a fast-paced society, steadfastly upholding core values (e.g., integrity, professionalism) is more important than chasing trends. Simultaneously, the coexistence of multiple patterns (as in Emperor Taizong's case) reflects the wisdom of "inclusiveness and integration," opposing a singular standard of success.
