合有三：一曰干合、二曰六合、三曰三合、其用者一也。是天地阴阳和气，大概主形容姿美，好生恶杀，心平聪慧，疏通周旋，亦有为害非常重者，凡命以生旺合，则举事慰怀，以死绝合，则有为未尝遂意，其相生合者，为吉，更有福神与之往来，其福愈厚，若以相克，合则为凶，更有恶杀遇之相合，则多横逆，凡支干合神，常以吉凶诸杀加临祸福用之，妇人大忌。
合中有杀，合咸池则有淫声玷行，更带大耗，必到淫奔，中有贵格者，自贱而贵也。大率合正印、贵人、禄马、食神，则为福禄厚、合元辰、天中、劫杀、咸池、官符之类，虽曰合神，莫若无也。有则反祸矣。（烛神经）
真合为紧
子巳卯申干合为真。
德合不清
甲子、己丑、丙戌、辛卯，连顺而贵，尚不如壬子、癸丑。
空合何荣
四柱相合，不扶禄马本命，即不为贵。
夫寅午戌之类，乃五行体合，三生之会也，子丑之类，地支岁合也，甲己之类，真气德合也。寅丑示之类，天地真形会也。甲得丑未无合有合也。丁得亥之类禄通同合也。申见乙，支合干也。申见亥干合支也。各看得位之清浊，失位之轻重，上下配偶，亲疏紧慢而言祸福也。（鬼谷遗文）
【合全十干、十二支】
干合全，甲如戊庚辛壬是也，支合全，丑卯巳未酉亥是也，五位合全得十干，若得命宫全足十二支，最贵也。盖【盖应该是盖吧】言戊则癸在，言子则丑在，所谓天官贵格，正此也。甲爱金鸡，以其酉中有辛，乙爱猴，以申中有庚，予因此遂悟，支干自有合全者，得之者，五行稍旺，未有不大贵者。加之禄马贵杀，往往极贵。
【支干暗合格】
凡甲人得三未或四未丑同名支暗合，于干为其未中有己，亥人得三甲或四甲，名干暗合于支，为其甲中有寅，如此之类，主无心中称意，是无合有合也。于前合支干论之解矣，但方诸彼稍慢耳。（并李虚中书）
【又支干暗合格】
丙人见酉，丙与辛合，辛福在酉。丑人见癸，癸禄在子，子与丑合。又如甲人带丑未，六癸人见戊，余皆彷此。（三人丙纂局）
被克干头支第六，此为六合入中书，顺流只作财星断，引从声名播帝都。
如章子厚相公，乙亥年、戊子月、丁未日、壬寅时、丁见壬为为官，寅合未也。（紫虚局）
李九万云：干合数支第六位，是如甲子，己巳、己巳、甲子、戊午、癸亥、癸亥、戊午皆是。
【君臣庆会，天地德合】
干为天之清气，支为地之厚载，本乎天者亲上，本乎地者亲下，在本元一甲中得之，为君臣庆会。如己卯得甲戌、辛卯得丙戌，戊戌得癸卯之类是也。不在本元一甲中得之，为天地德合，如庚午得己未，甲子得己丑，甲午得己未，谓之天地德合之数，然辛卯自旺之木，得丙戌乃火之所钟，以生土则木为仁恕和柔之性，土承禄厚，福壮之基。戊戌会于癸卯，而金木在未能成器之处，往来相克，子午二金，虽有贵气诸位，更逢生旺之金，则富贵寿考，盖甲子死金，甲午败金，有火克之，无生旺之气，更诸位逢死绝之金，则贵而夭寿，而或贫，二格时合为上，日合次之，又云：画夜互为君臣，辛卯得丙戌之类，然遇进合，则少年便发，遇，遇退合，则晚年方快。（阁东叟书）
【君臣庆会，白衣拜职佐尧天】
须得不出本旬者方是，因要别其阳为君，阴为臣，君位致上，臣致下，若君在下，而臣在上，则父子悖乱也。（壶中子）
【宸庭贵从格】
天地合全，快马加鞭见真官贵人，夹拥者是也，假令丙子辛丑，得甲子日时之类，丙子纳音水，见甲子，甲真土是官也，丙子辛丑地天合也，丙贵在亥，辛贵在寅，是贵人夹也。拥得此格者，官延于世，壬午得乙未准此。但不见天地合，灭一二分力断之。
【带悬重金格】
干合谓之天带合，支合谓之地带合，假令庚辰人，己酉月、丙戌日、辛卯时，正应此格。乙庚丙辛天带合也，酉辰戌卯地带合也，庚辰纳音一金，乙庚真金，重金也，故云：带悬重金，贵显之命。（并玉霄宝鉴）
天地合乘本家旺气，并他处旺气，并【并应该也是并吧】作两府，至贵命断之，如不乘旺气，却带一切福神，于其上或自作福神于他处，纯粹无坏，亦作两府左右命断之。既不乘旺气，又无福神临之，却莹净无坏，亦作员郎命断之，如遇冲破空亡，皆为驳杂，有福神临之，则作官更无福神乘之，只作无成举人，清净僧道之命，若死绝无气，只作鄙吝衣食百姓看之。（林开五命）
天地合，最要以时合，主本为上，盖时乃帝坐，以时合则未有不得君者，若非时合终慢也。
又切戒阳多阴少，如二甲一己是、且阳譬，则君也、夫也，阴譬，则臣也、妇也、君多臣少，夫多妇少，岂不致乱哉，又要无杀害冲破。（李虚中书）
天地合，得造化相生旺者紧，若甲辰得己酉则慢，乙酉得庚辰则紧，更临时消息。（广录）
凡天地合本为福，若在空亡中或相克战，反为祸紧。玄谈曰：合处相伤，却为无补。（广信）
大凡天地合中无造化气，不足为真，且如乙酉人见庚辰金，须得日时有火或土者为上，不然向寅巳午申酉支辰得气，又阴索阳合者，福厚，己酉合甲辰是，若甲辰己酉则弱矣。（天元变化书）
六合之星甚最强，更看权杀细推详，无权只是田财盛，有杀须应给舍郎。
此言天地六合，须要神杀纯粹、或驳杂空亡，皆为破，如戊戌合癸卯，此天地合，只作富民命，有些子薄禄，谓癸卯金克命，木不旺也，如戊午、癸未之类此至贵之命。（鬼谷要诀）
三奇不如一甲强，三甲能如一合乡，支干日时俱是合，清风美誉远传扬。（金书命诀）
三合者，以带本家一位纳音旺日时上者，为最上，如亥卯未得辛卯是。切忌以金富寅午戌之类，须旺而损寿，尤宜以驿马当之，须大贵，三合换尽入格甚好（李虚中书）
如木干，木纳音遇巳酉丑金局，反克为凶、贱。且以水命，若遇申子辰水，曰润下局，乃得局，遇亥卯未曲直局，反泄气，得寅午戌火，曰炎上局，为财局或得巳酉丑金，从革局，曰成局，盖逢母也，水人得水局，乃为正局，余准此。（源髓歌）
合神安静助福贵，福力涓涓。鬼克合神，纵有喜须反祸。（隐迷赋）
吉事合，以合中见吉，凶事合，以合中见凶。（神白经）
In numerology, "combination" (合) is divided into three types: Heavenly Stem Combinations (干合), Earthly Branch Six Combinations (六合), and Earthly Branch Triple Combinations (三合). Their fundamental functions are consistent. Combinations represent the harmonious energy of Yin and Yang between heaven and earth 🌱, generally indicating auspiciousness, symbolizing handsome appearance, kind-heartedness, aversion to killing, a peaceful mindset, intelligence, wisdom, and strong communication and negotiation skills. However, combinations can also bring serious harm: if the combination is in a state of growth and prosperity in the destiny chart, affairs proceed smoothly and the mood is cheerful; if it is in a state of decline and exhaustion, everything goes awry and wishes are hard to fulfill. Combinations that involve mutual generation are auspicious; if blessed by fortunate deities (such as Noble Persons, Lu, or Ma), the blessings are even greater. Combinations that involve mutual conflict are inauspicious; if combined with malicious forces (such as Robbery Killings or Peach Blossom), they often lead to unexpected disasters and setbacks. The combination of stems and branches must be interpreted in conjunction with auspicious and inauspicious deities to determine fortune and misfortune. Female destiny charts are particularly averse to combinations that include malicious forces.
Combinations that include malicious forces (杀), such as combining with Peach Blossom (咸池), may lead to a ruined reputation and improper conduct; if further combined with Great Exhaustion (大耗, a wealth-draining force), it is easy to engage in promiscuous behavior. However, if supported by a noble pattern, one can transform from lowly to noble. Generally speaking, combining with auspicious deities such as Proper Seal, Noble Person, Lu, Ma, or Food God brings deep blessings and prosperity; combining with malicious forces such as Yuan Chen, Tian Zhong, Robbery Killing, Peach Blossom, or Official Talisman, though termed "combination," is actually worse than having no combination at all, as it instead invites disaster. (Cited from Zhu Shen Jing)
True Combination is most critical: for example, Zi-Si and Mao-Shen stem combinations are true combinations.
Virtue Combination is not pure: such as combinations like Jia-Zi, Ji-Chou, Bing-Xu, Xin-Mao. Although sequentially noble, they are not as pure as Ren-Zi and Gui-Chou.
Empty Combination brings no glory: if the four pillars combine but do not support Lu, Ma, or the natal destiny, nobility is not manifested.
Triple combinations like Yin-Wu-Xu represent the union of the five elements' bodies, symbolizing the meeting of three lives; annual combinations like Zi-Chou are yearly unions; stem combinations like Jia-Ji are true energy virtue combinations; combinations like Yin-Chou represent the union of form and energy. Jia obtaining Chou-Wei is a combination without apparent combination (hidden combination); Ding obtaining Hai is Lu connecting through combination. Shen meeting Yi is a branch combining with a stem; Shen meeting Hai is a stem combining with a branch. One must observe their position (clear or turbid), the severity of losing position, the pairing of upper and lower, and the closeness or looseness to determine fortune and misfortune. (Cited from Gui Gu Yi Wen)
【Complete Combination of Ten Stems and Twelve Branches】
Complete stem combination refers to all ten stems, such as Wu, Geng, Xin, Ren, etc., being present; complete branch combination refers to all twelve branches, such as Chou, Mao, Si, Wei, You, Hai, etc., being present. If the destiny palace contains all twelve branches, it is most noble. Because mentioning Wu implies Gui is present (Jia-Ji combination, Yi-Geng combination, etc.), and mentioning Zi implies Chou is present (Earthly Branch Six Combinations), this is the Heavenly Official Noble Pattern. Jia loves the Golden Rooster (You contains Xin), Yi loves the Monkey (Shen contains Geng). From this, one can understand that stems and branches inherently have complete combinations. Those who obtain this have slightly prosperous five elements and are often greatly noble; if further combined with Lu, Ma, or noble forces, they often achieve extreme nobility.
【Hidden Stem-Branch Combination Pattern】
For example, a Jia person obtaining three or four Wei is called a branch hiddenly combining with a stem (Wei contains Ji); a Hai person obtaining three or four Jia is called a stem hiddenly combining with a branch (Jia contains Yin). Such patterns indicate unintentional satisfaction, representing a combination without apparent combination. This has been explained in the previous stem-branch combination discussion, but the effect is slightly slower. (Cited from Li Xu Zhong's writing)
【Another Hidden Stem-Branch Combination Pattern】
A Bing person meeting You (Bing combines with Xin, Xin's blessing is in You); a Chou person meeting Gui (Gui's Lu is in Zi, Zi combines with Chou). Others, such as a Jia person bringing Chou-Wei, or six Gui people meeting Wu, etc., all follow this pattern. (Cited from San Ren Bing Zuan Ju)
The sixth branch of the controlled stem head is the Six Combinations entering the central book; flowing smoothly is only interpreted as wealth star, leading to fame spreading in the imperial capital.
For example, Chancellor Zhang Zihou: Year Yi-Hai, Month Wu-Zi, Day Ding-Wei, Hour Ren-Yin. Ding meeting Ren is an official, and Yin combines with Wei. (Cited from Zi Xu Ju)
Li Jiuwan said: Stem combination number branch sixth position, such as Jia-Zi, Ji-Si, Ji-Si, Jia-Zi, Wu-Wu, Gui-Hai, Gui-Hai, Wu-Wu, etc., are all examples.
【Monarch-Minister Celebration, Heaven-Earth Virtue Combination】
Stems represent heaven's clear energy, branches represent earth's thick support. Obtaining it within the same original Jia (e.g., Ji-Mao obtaining Jia-Xu, Xin-Mao obtaining Bing-Xu) is the Monarch-Minister Celebration; not within the same original Jia (e.g., Geng-Wu obtaining Ji-Wei, Jia-Zi obtaining Ji-Chou) is the Heaven-Earth Virtue Combination. However, one must observe the five elements' prosperity and decline: for example, Xin-Mao's prosperous wood obtaining Bing-Xu's fire generating earth indicates benevolence, forgiveness, and gentleness; Wu-Xu meeting Gui-Mao involves metal and wood conflicting—if encountering prosperous metal, it brings wealth, nobility, and longevity; if encountering declining metal, it brings nobility but early death or poverty. Hour combination is superior, day combination is secondary. Day and night mutually serve as monarch and minister (e.g., Xin-Mao obtaining Bing-Xu); advancing combination brings early success, retreating combination brings late-life happiness. (Cited from Ge Dong Sou Shu)
【Monarch-Minister Celebration, Commoner Receiving Appointment to Assist Yao's Heaven】
It must not leave the same ten-day cycle; Yang is the monarch, Yin is the minister. The monarch above and minister below is auspicious; the opposite leads to chaos and rebellion. (Cited from Hu Zhong Zi)
【Imperial Court Noble Attendants Pattern】
Heaven and earth completely combined, like a swift horse whipped to see the true official and noble person flanking. For example, Bing-Zi Xin-Chou obtaining Jia-Zi day and hour: Bing-Zi's Na Yin water meeting Jia-Zi's true earth as an official; Bing-Zi and Xin-Chou heaven-earth combination; Bing's noble person in Hai, Xin's noble person in Yin, forming noble person flanking. Those obtaining this pattern have official careers extending through generations. Ren-Wu obtaining Yi-Wei follows this, but without heaven-earth combination, the power is reduced.
【Suspended Heavy Gold Pattern】
Stem combination is heaven belt combination, branch combination is earth belt combination. For example, a Geng-Chen person, Ji-You month, Bing-Xu day, Xin-Mao hour: Yi-Geng Bing-Xin heaven belt combination, You-Chen Xu-Mao earth belt combination; Geng-Chen's Na Yin metal, Yi-Geng true metal, hence called suspended heavy gold, indicating nobility. (Cited from Yu Xiao Bao Jian)
If the heaven-earth combination rides the prosperous energy of its own family and other places' prosperous energy, it can become a Two Mansions extremely noble destiny; if not riding prosperous energy but carrying fortunate deities, it can also become a Two Mansions adjacent destiny; if pure and unblemished, it becomes a court official destiny; if encountering冲破空亡 (break, clash, emptiness), it is mixed, and with fortunate deities present, it can become an official; without, it becomes an unsuccessful candidate, monk, or Taoist; if declining and without energy, it becomes a stingy commoner. (Cited from Lin Kai Wu Ming)
Heaven-earth combination most values hour combination, with hour combination governing the root as superior (hour is the emperor's seat); non-hour combination is slower. Avoid excessive Yang and scarce Yin (e.g., two Jia one Ji); Yang is monarch, husband, Yin is minister, wife. Too many monarchs and too few ministers cause chaos. There must be no harm, conflict, or break. (Cited from Li Xu Zhong's writing)
Heaven-earth combination obtaining growth and prosperity is tight (e.g., Yi-You obtaining Geng-Chen); losing prosperity is slow (e.g., Jia-Chen obtaining Ji-You); must be interpreted according to the temporary situation. (Cited from Guang Lu)
Heaven-earth combination is originally fortunate, but if in emptiness or mutual conflict, it instead becomes tightly disastrous. Injury at the combination point offers no补救. (Cited from Guang Xin)
Heaven-earth combination without creative energy is insufficient to be true; e.g., a Yi-You person meeting Geng-Chen metal requires day or hour having fire or earth to be superior, or oriented towards Yin-Si-Wu-Shen-You to obtain energy. Yin seeking Yang combination brings thick blessings (Ji-You combining with Jia-Chen); Yang seeking Yin combination is weak (Jia-Chen Ji-You). (Cited from Tian Yuan Bian Hua Shu)
The star of Six Combinations is very strong; further observe authority and killing for detailed analysis; without authority, it only indicates prosperous fields and wealth; with killing, it should indicate a high official.
Heaven-earth six combinations require pure divine forces; if mixed with emptiness, it is broken. For example, Wu-Xu combining with Gui-Mao only makes a wealthy commoner destiny; Wu-Wu combining with Gui-Wei becomes extremely noble. (Cited from Gui Gu Yao Jue)
Three奇 (special combinations) are not as strong as one Jia; three Jia can equal one combination; stems, branches, day, and hour all combined, clear reputation and beautiful fame spread far. (Cited from Jin Shu Ming Jue)
Triple combination with carrying the Na Yin prosperous day and hour of its own family is superior (e.g., Hai-Mao-Wei obtaining Xin-Mao). Avoid metal overcoming wood, etc.; reverse overcoming is inauspicious and lowly. Water destiny meeting Shen-Zi-Chen water formation is obtaining the formation; meeting Hai-Mao-Wei wood formation instead drains energy; meeting Yin-Wu-Xu fire formation is wealth formation; meeting Si-You-Chou metal formation is completion formation (encountering mother). Water person obtaining water formation is the proper formation; the rest analogize. (Cited from Yuan Sui Ge)
Combination deities quietly assist fortune and nobility, blessing power trickling; ghost overcoming combination deities, even with joy, must instead bring disaster. (Cited from Yin Mi Fu)
Auspicious affairs combine, seen through combination seeing auspiciousness; inauspicious affairs combine, seen through combination seeing inauspiciousness. (Cited from Shen Bai Jing)
