Hexagram Jia Day, Jia Zi Hour Analysis

原文

六甲日甲子时断（以下所忌月分与时间断）

六甲日生甲子时，败中印绶官生至；月通木气不寻常，反此而言虚名利。
甲日甲子时，虽甲败在子，暗有癸水生气印绶，兼有官生其印，若己土破印，通月气，贵。否则，秀而不实。
甲子日甲子时，子遥巳格，年月无庚辛申酉，丑绊午冲，离祖自立，贵。若年月俱寅，逢申酉运，大富后退财。子亥卯未年月，行西运，贵。甲辰月亦贵。酉月，只以正官格论，大贵。巳午戌月，平常。午月，甲死子冲，尤不吉。乙卯、乙巳月，主法死。以上具以日时为主，而以人命年月附之，其官御不同者，此前代命也。下同。
甲寅日甲子时，拱丑中辛，贵。年月无庚辛申酉丑未，大贵。再甲寅月，孤克，惟憎道可。亥子年月，四品贵。午月，行东北方运，亦贵。如酉丑巳等月，明有官煞，柱但有印，俱贵。卯未，身太旺，未免刑伤。乙巳月，受刑。丁亥月，旺中恶死。甲辰日甲子时，若水位年月，水泛木浮，主移根换叶；申月，煞星会印，俱贵。子月，行水木运，亦贵。酉月正官，大贵。寅午戌月，俱吉。乙卯月，刑折。癸巳月，水火中死。癸亥月，凶死。
甲午日甲子时，时日并冲，忧伤妻子，月通木气者显贵。纯子午年月，或亥未酉月，俱贵。
甲申日甲子时，甲胎逢印印化煞，贵。鸳鸯重迭，子嗣难为。若行东南方运，文武职居间。亥卯未辰丑申等月，俱贵。乙卯月夭。丁巳月，死不全尸。
甲戌日甲子时，拱亥天门，会同帝阙，甲长生地也，不可以隔角论。年月通申巳酉丑金气，大贵。戊寅年月，主聋哑，或狼虎伤害，见壬则吉。乙卯月，刑死，乙亥月，遭盗死。以上六日年月喜忌，当通融活看。下同。
甲子相逢甲子连，拟作蟾宫折桂仙；丑绊并冲官鬼破，功名蹭蹬不周全。甲子时逢甲子，就中印绶符同。庚申辛酉若相逢，丑未再兼年月。拱贵暗藏极显，巳午冲破平中。果无刑克与空冲，定主超群出众。

📜 Overall Paraphrase

Destiny Characteristics of Jia Day Born at Jia Zi Hour (The following auspicious and inauspicious signs require comprehensive judgment based on the specific month and hour)
Being born on a Jia Day at Jia Zi Hour, although Jia Wood appears to be in a "defeated position" at the Zi location on the surface, it secretly receives the nourishing energy of Gui Water, which generates the Seal Ribbon 🌊, and is protected by the Official Star. If the Month Branch connects with Wood energy, it is extraordinary; otherwise, it brings empty fame and illusory gains.

Detailed Analysis of Each Day Pillar

Jia Zi Day, Jia Zi Hour

Special Pattern: Forms the "Zi Yao Si Pattern" (virtually inviting the Official Star).
Conditions for Nobility: Year and Month Pillars without Geng, Xin, Shen, or You (Metal breaking the pattern), and without Chou hindering or Wu clashing, allowing one to leave their ancestors and establish themselves with prominence.
Inauspicious Warnings:
- Double Yin in Year and Month Pillars encountering Shen or You luck: Wealth first, then financial loss.
- Yi Mao or Yi Si Month: Prone to unexpected disasters.
- Wu Month: Jia Wood in death and extinction + Zi-Wu clash, extremely inauspicious.
Other Combinations:
- Zi, Hai, Mao, or Wei Month + West luck: Noble.
- Jia Chen Month: Noble.
- You Month: Analyzed as the True Official Pattern, greatly noble.
- Si, Wu, or Xu Month: Ordinary.

Jia Yin Day, Jia Zi Hour

Core Advantage: Virtually harbors the Xin Metal Official Star from Chou (noble energy hidden).
Conditions for Great Nobility: Year and Month Pillars without Geng, Xin, Shen, You, Chou, or Wei (Metal and Earth breaking the pattern).
Special Notes:
- Jia Yin Month: Solitary and overcoming, suitable for monastic or Taoist paths.
- Hai or Zi Month: Official rank up to the fourth grade.
- Wu Month + Northeast luck: Noble.
Inauspicious Patterns:

🧠 In-Depth Understanding

Core Concepts 💡

Hidden Vitality: Jia Wood in Zi Water's "defeated position" actually receives nourishment from Gui Water, revealing the dialectical view of "finding life in extremity."
Dynamic Balance: Noble patterns require the smooth flow of the Five Elements (e.g., Seal transforming Kill, Official protecting Seal), avoiding excessive dominance of a single element.
Temporal Constraints: Identical day and hour combinations can reverse auspiciousness and inauspiciousness due to different months.

Modern Interpretation 🌟

New Interpretation of "Leaving Ancestors to Establish Oneself":
Limitations of the family of origin can be overcome through development in different locations (e.g., cross-regional collaboration in the tech industry).
Contemporary Insight from "Zi-Wu Clash":
The Water-Fire conflict can reflect work-family imbalance, necessitating the establishment of time management mechanisms ⏳.
Application of "Seal Ribbon Protecting the Body":
Continuous learning (Seal) can transform pressure (Kill) into workplace competitiveness.

Practical Value ⚡

Career Choice Reference:
- You Month (True Official Pattern): Suitable for government systems/management roles.
- Hai or Zi Month (strong Water): Suitable for mobile professions (trade, logistics).
Risk Warning:
- Those born in Yi Mao Month: Avoid high-risk activities, strengthen legal awareness ⚖️.
- Those born in Wu Month: Pay attention to cardiovascular health ❤️‍🔥.

Philosophical Reflection 🤔

Critique of "Empty Fame and Illusory Gains":
Warns that pursuing superficial success (Month not connecting with Wood energy) will ultimately be futile, echoing modern reflections on "involution."
Metaphor of "Virtually Harboring Nobility":
True opportunities are often hidden in daily accumulation (like the invisible force of Gui Water generating Jia Wood).
