A strong Self Line signifies the grandfather’s soul at peace; a prosperous Offspring Line symbolizes flourishing descendants who will maintain ancestral rites. 🌱
Ancient texts often regarded the Second Line as representing the tomb, or the Inner Trigram as the burial site, or even the Teng Snake (腾蛇) as the symbol of the grave. However, repeated verifications have proven these inaccurate. Practical experience shows that the Self Line truly represents the burial site. The Self Line should be strong, or supported by the Day, Month, or moving lines, to indicate an auspicious location. The Offspring Line (also known as the Virtue Line) represents the descendants who will conduct the rituals. It is favorable for this line to be in the Self position or strong in other positions, indicating prosperous descendants and a thriving lineage. ✨
A hexagram encountering Six Harmonies (六合), or the Self Line forming a six-harmony relationship with the Offspring Line, suggests an auspicious burial site that gathers energy and shelters from wind, ensuring prosperity for generations. If the hexagram is Six Conflicts (六冲), or a Six Conflicts hexagram transforms into another Six Conflicts hexagram, or if the Self and Response Lines conflict, this dispersion indicates poor energy flow and inauspicious feng shui. 💨
A Six Conflicts hexagram transforming into Six Harmonies suggests a fortunate plot lost and then regained; Six Harmonies transforming into Six Conflicts indicates a fortunate plot obtained but later lost. Two scenarios are possible: In the first case, the transformation from conflict to harmony may mean initial failure to acquire land followed by success, or a decline in land fortune followed by revival. If the Self Line encounters strong offspring energy, swift action is advised. In the second case, harmony turning to conflict may mean loss of acquired land or a decline in land fortune, suggesting it is not suitable for use. 🔄
If the Self Line is strong but transforms into a broken, exhausted, or counter-acting line, an auspicious site hides misfortune; if the Self Line is weak but transforms into a generating, harmonizing, or advancing line, misfortune contains blessings. A strong Self Line turning ominous suggests initial benefits followed by problems; a weak Self Line turning auspicious indicates initial difficulties followed by prosperity. ⚠️
Case: On the Wuwu Day (戊午) of the Yin Month (寅月), a query about finding land yielded the Hexagram Yi (颐) transforming into Wuwang (无妄).
Interpretation: The Self Line (Xu Earth, 戌土) is weak in spring but transforms into the Wu Fire Offspring Line (午火), which generates the Self Line. The Day, Month, and Self Line form a three-harmony combination. The Green Dragon (青龙) plays in water, transforming into长生 (Long Life), indicating a distant water source. However, the Shen (申) month breaks the water, and the Xu Earth clashes with the Zi Water (子水), which is冲 (conflicted) by the Day. Water exists in spring and summer but dries up in autumn and winter.
After confirmation from the querent, I assured them it was not a problem. The three-harmony combination in the hexagram indicated peace for the deceased and joy for the living, with descendants flourishing. After burial in the Chen Year (辰年), a grandson achieved second place in the provincial exams in the You Year (酉年), and another grandson passed the exams in the Zi Year (子年). 🎯
The Self Line transforming into an advancing line suggests enduring land energy; the Offspring Line transforming into an advancing line indicates thriving descendants. A strong Self Line transforming auspiciously signifies peace and gathered water; the Offspring Line transforming auspiciously suggests wise and noble descendants. If the Self Line transforms into a retreating line, eventual relocation may be necessary; if the Offspring Line transforms into a retreating line, each generation may decline. 📈
The Day and Month should generate and support the Self and Offspring Lines, not conflict or overcome them. Moving lines should not harm the Self Line. 🌿
If the Self Line is accompanied by the White Tiger (白虎) or a Ghost Line, or follows a ghost into the tomb, it suggests hidden corpses in the land; if the Self Line is strong and supported, it indicates a coffin above a coffin (auspicious). A strong Offspring Line with Green Dragon support signifies rapid prosperity from the burial site, with benefits seen as quickly as "buried in Yin, prosperous in Mao" (寅葬卯发). ⚡
Case: On the Wuzi Day (戊子) of the Shen Month (申月), a query about a burial site yielded the Hexagram Bo (剥).
Interpretation: The Offspring Line is in the Self position, supported by the Day and generated by the Month. The Green Dragon plays in water, indicating a leftward water flow near a large river. The White Tiger in the Mao Wood (卯木) conflicts with Zi (子), suggesting hidden dangers. The Response Line indicates a low mountain in the direction, and the Xu Earth (戌) suggests a slightly higher table mountain.
After confirmation, I advised swift burial for immediate benefits that winter. Indeed, burial in the eighth month led to a promotion for the second son in the tenth month, and the eldest son gained a grandson in the Si Month (巳月) of the following year. 🔮
Case: On the Renyin Day (壬寅) of the Mao Month (卯月), a query about finding land yielded the Hexagram Ge (革) transforming into Jiji (既济).
Interpretation: The Parent Line is the used god. The Shen Metal (申金) generates the Hai Water (亥水) in return. The Self Line is weak initially but gains strength. However, the Yin (寅) conflicts with Shen (申), suggesting land acquisition in the seventh month in the southwest, bringing wealth and descendants, with prosperity in the Shen Year (申年). Indeed, land was acquired in the southwest in the seventh month, buried in the Mao Year (卯年), and descendants flourished greatly in the You Year (酉年). 📍
The Self and Offspring Lines should not be weak, tomb-hidden, exhausted, empty, broken, or transforming ominously (e.g., into ghost or overcoming lines). If any of the Six Relations transform into ghosts, it bodes ill for brothers, wives, children, or parents. ❌
If the Response Line conflicts with the Self Line or harmony encounters conflict, it suggests displacement or migration. A hexagram with opposition or reversal and transformational conflict indicates flood or grave issues. Hexagrams with Six Conflicts are generally inauspicious; conflict between Self and Response Lines is unfavorable. A three-harmony combination between Self, Response, and Offspring Lines indicates an excellent location. A Hidden Song (伏吟) hexagram with conflict may lead to relocation in a clashing year; an Opposite Song (反吟) hexagram with conflict may bring changes in a clashing year. Transformation into exhaustion or overcoming suggests severe disruption or light migration. 🌊
Case: On the Wuzi Day (戊子) of the Mao Month (卯月), a query about land yielded the Hexagram Xun (巽) transforming into Sheng (升).
Interpretation: The Self Line is strong with monthly build and daily support, auspicious superficially. However, the outer trigram is in Opposite Song, with the Self Line conflicted by You (酉) and the Offspring Line conflicted by Hai (亥), making it unsuitable. The querent had already purchased the land, and a feng shui master deemed it auspicious. After burial, within four years, two sons and a daughter died, the querent suffered paralysis, and passed away in the You Year (another clashing year). 💔
A Parent Line moving and transforming into another Parent Line is especially ominous, indicating dying young descendants; an Offspring Line transforming into another Offspring Line suggests generations of numerous children, not single-line inheritance. 👨👩👧👦
