论官财印食神宜忌-卷四

原文

论比肩宜忌劫财败财同

《子平撮要》云：比肩要逢官煞制，《玄机赋》云：日干无气遇劫为强。

按：比肩何以要官煞制，盖日主太强，八字中比肩、劫财、败财曾见叠出，而伤官、食神鲜见，必须官煞以制之，始可循正轨。犹人之兄弟众多，必须长官以约束之，严师以教导之，乃成优美人材。故《子平撮要》云：比肩要逢官煞制，日干无气何以遇劫为强，盖日主太弱，八字中并无正印，而官、煞、财、伤甚重，不得己而籍劫财、败财之赞助。犹人之身体废驰，不能自治，必须兄弟辈襄理一切，乃可转弱为强。故《玄机赋》云：日干无气，遇劫为强。

论食神宜忌

《子平撮要》云：用之食神不可夺，《古歌》云：食神最喜劫财乡。

按：用之食神，何以不可夺？盖日主太强，八字中比劫林立，而财官卒鲜，正赖食神，盗泄其精华，使之尽其所长，若见印绶以夺之，呜呼可。犹人之年方少壮，正可抒发抱负，进取利名。若以微禄羁靡之，虚荣束缚之，岂非贻误人耶？故《子平撮要》云：用之食神不可夺，食神又何以最喜劫财？盖日主太弱，八字中食神重重，而又有财无印，用财星而日主力量难胜，用食神而元气更伤，不得已籍劫财、败财之赞助。犹人之精神不足，时务太繁，必须得同心者辅佐之，乃可化难为易。故《古歌》云：食神最喜劫财乡。

论伤官宜忌

《古歌》云：伤官伤尽最为奇。又云：伤官见官祸百端。《子平撮要》云：伤官犹喜见财星。《玄机赋》云：伤官用印宜去财。《古歌》云：伤官不怕比劫逢。

按：伤官何以伤尽为奇？盖日主太强，八字比劫重逢，而财星太少，正赖伤官生财，以尽其妙。犹人之年少家贫，必须振刷精神，扩张事业，故《古歌》云：伤官伤尽最为奇。伤官又何以见官为祸？盖日主太强，八字中比劫重逢，而伤官当道，若见正官，则伤官必奋起而笺害之。犹人之背理涉讼，恃强污官，有不遭谴责者乎？故又云：伤官见官祸百端。伤官又何以喜见财？盖日主太强，八字中比劫重逢，而伤官、正官又同处战争地位，则必用财化解。犹人之忤官获罪，施以罚金，则消患无形矣。故《子平撮要》云：伤官犹喜见财星。伤官用印何以宜去财？盖日主太弱，八字中伤官叠出，正赖印绶生扶，始免伤官盗泻之害。若见财星，则印绶破伤。犹人之体弱事繁，正值节劳静养，服药调摄之时，岂堪再冒险而谋利乎？盖日主太弱，八字中伤官重逢，用伤官而元气不经盗泄，用财煞，而身体不生摧残，惟有取比肩、劫财、败财为用，始免此患。犹人之精神萎靡，不能治事，必赖同气者协助。故《古歌》云：伤官不怕比劫逢。

论财星宜忌

《子平撮要》云：用之财星不可劫。《古歌》云：身强财旺皆为福，若带官星更妙哉。又云：日主无根财太重，全凭印绶护身躯。《玄机赋》云：财旺者遇比何妨。子平云：日主无根，弃命从财。

按：财星何以不可夺？盖日主太强，八字财星不多，官煞罕见，正赖财星为用，若见比劫，则财星破矣。犹人之家贫人众，全赖此少数储金，为生活之资本，岂堪再经盗泻。故《子平撮要》云：用之为财不可劫。财旺身强，又何以带官星妙？盖日主太强，八字中比劫虽多，而财星颇旺，身强用财，固是美事，再带官星，以去比劫，妙不可言。犹人之身强家富，固以愉快，若再纳粟奏名，显荣乡里，其乐又何如耶。故《古歌》云：身强财旺皆为福，若带官星更妙哉。财太重，又何以全凭印绶？盖日主太弱，八字中财星叠见，比劫不逢，必须印绶护持之，乃免财多身弱之患。犹人之资财富足，而无自治能力，必赖椿萱庇荫，始无失散之虞。故《古歌》云：日主无根财太旺，全凭印绶护身躯。财旺又何以遇比劫无妨？盖日主太弱，八字中财星叠见，印绶无权，必须比劫盗助之，乃得众擎易举之效。犹人之财产丰盈，不遑兼顾，须选会计为之管理也。故《玄机赋》云：财旺者遇比何妨。日主无根，又何以弃命从财？盖日主太弱，八字中财叠见，欲籍印绶护持，而印绶阙如。欲籍比劫资助，而比劫亦阙如，无已，惟有弃命从财，反取财为用神。犹人之家贫亲逝，既无昆仲，又无奥授，只有舍丈夫之特性，作赘婿之新郎，庶可免凄凉之苦，而得家室之欢。故子平云：日主无根，弃命从财。

论正官宜忌

《子平撮要》云：用之正官不可伤。又云：官轻见财为福利。《继善篇》云：有官有印，无破作庙廊之材。《玄机赋》云：重犯官星，只宜制伏。

按：用之官星，何以不可伤？盖日主太强，八字中比劫甚重，财星不多，正赖官星以制比劫，使之不敢夺财，若见伤官以伤之，则官星失其效力，而比劫猖狂矣。犹人家道饶余，全凭法律保护，若世乱官笺，则盗贼横行，身家不保，其害可胜言哉。故《子平撮要》云：用之正官不可伤。官星轻又何以见财为福？盖日主太强，八字中比劫重，官星轻，但凭无力之官星，不能制有气之比劫，必须籍财生官，而官星始有效力。犹人之因争而讼，既具充足理由，又占富裕地位，则长官必格外垂青，而速行判直也。故《子平撮要》云：官轻见财为福利。有官又何以要有印？盖日主太弱，八字中官星颇旺，比劫甚少，必须印绶生扶，而官星始我为福。犹人之既得功名，又受权印，即可建功立业，利国福民。否则不过一闲曹，岂能更图远大哉。故《继善篇》云：有官有印，无破作庙廊之材。重犯官星，又何以只宜制伏？盖日主太弱，八字中官星叠见，印绶不逢，有可无生，不得已籍伤官以伤之，庶不致摧残净尽。犹人之势孤涉讼，屡遭扑责，必得强有力者，为之据理抗争，乃可转危为安。故《玄机赋》云：重犯官星，只宜制伏。

论七煞宜忌

《继善篇》云：身强煞浅，假煞为权。经云：煞轻者喜财生之。《玄机赋》云：煞重身轻，制乡有益。又云：身弱有印，煞旺无妨。子平云：日主无根，弃命从煞。

按：身强煞浅，何以假煞为权？盖日主太强，八字中比劫多，财星少，官星晦，正赖七煞补官星之不逮，以制比劫，使之不敢觊觎财星。犹人之财产丰富，既少长官法律之保护，必须联合乡党之强有力者，为之屏障，此即古人自治之义。故《继善篇》云：身强煞浅，假煞为权。煞轻何以喜财生者？盖日主太强，八字中比劫重，七煞轻，若籍七煞以制比劫，而七煞畏难思退，必须财星生之，乃有效力。犹人之僻居乡里，因事相争，每籍乡里之强有力者，为之排难解纷。然若无隆情酬报，彼亦岂能为我直耶。故经云：煞轻者喜财生之。煞重身轻，又何以制乡有义？盖日主太弱，八字中七煞多，比劫少，既无比劫夺财，何须七煞笺身，必赖食神伤官以制之，乃可自存。犹人之家资颇富，并无亲族贫乏者与之为难，彼亦何苦受权豪之剥削，是必施其智谋以抵抗之，始可安乐。故《玄机赋》云：煞重身轻，制乡有益。身弱有印，又何以煞旺无妨？盖日主太弱，八字中七煞虽旺，得印绶生身，仍无他害。犹人之知识浅薄，家资富裕，小人逼处，似属危险。然得椿萱庇荫，仍可暇豫无伤。故《玄机赋》云：身弱有印，煞旺无妨。日主无根又何以弃命从煞？盖日主太弱，八字中七煞林立，既无印绶护身，比劫相势，又无伤食制煞，独立无援，不得已弃命从煞，反取七煞为用神。犹人之孤身远行，途遇盗贼，惟有俯首贴耳，听其搜索，乃可保生命而步康庄，若稍示违抗，能无杀身之祸耶。故子平云：日主无根，弃命从煞。

论印绶宜忌

《玄机赋》云：印多者形财而发。《子平撮要》云：用之印绶不可破

按：印多何以行财运而发？盖日主太强，八字中印绶多，比劫众，必赖财星破印，始免满损之虞。犹人之年富力强，衣食丰足，必须发奋经营，多方劳动，而身体始可康宁。若但饱食终日，无所事事，则疾病相侵矣。故《玄机赋》云：印多者喜行财地。用之印绶，又何以不可破？盖日主太弱，八字中官煞重，比劫轻，正赖印绶生扶，始免摧残之害。犹人之家富身衰，只宜息肩养性，不可争利好名。若不知此而妄为，未有不因劳致疾者。故《子平撮要》云：用之印绶不可破。以上所释，皆以日主强弱为纲，用神宜忌为目，凡先贤定名取用之义，皆以浅说申明之，非敢谓为尽是，要以不出先贤人情物理，寓劝于惩之意。至于次序先后，与古人略异者，盖古人以吉凶名词分先后，兹以十干生克次序分先后，故一曰比劫，二曰食伤，三曰财星，四曰官煞，五曰印绶。犹人之先有身体，后有学术，再后有财产，有财产而后籍长官保护，权印设施，乃可治安。此理势之自然，断非人力私智之所能造作也。沈孝瞻曰：财与印不分偏正，同为一格论，故此篇偏财、偏印不另赘述。

On the Appropriateness and Taboos of Officials, Wealth, Seal, and Food God – Volume 4

Overall Interpretation
This chapter systematically elaborates on the principles governing the appropriateness and taboos of the Ten Gods in Eight Characters astrology, including Compare Energy, Food God, Hurt Officer, Wealth Star, Direct Officer, Seven Killing, and Seal Ribbon. The core logic consistently revolves around two principles: "the strength of the Day Master" and "the coordination of the Useful God." The ancients used human relationships and worldly wisdom as metaphors to reveal the practical wisdom behind the interactions of the Five Elements—restraint is needed when strong, support is needed when weak, and balance is most valued.

⚖️ On the Appropriateness and Taboos of Compare Energy (Rob Wealth and Defeat Wealth follow the same logic)

Core Concept 💡
Compare Energy is like brothers and friends—its abundance should be moderate. When the Day Master is strong, an excess of Compare Energy requires restraint by Officers and Killings. When the Day Master is weak, Compare Energy is needed for support.

Modern Interpretation 🌟

Strong Day Master + Excessive Compare Energy: Like having too many team members without management; rules (Officers/Killings) are needed to harness efficiency.
Weak Day Master + Insufficient Compare Energy: Like lacking personal capability; teamwork or friend support (Compare/Rob Energy) is urgently needed to overcome challenges.

Practical Value ⚡

In the workplace, those with strong capabilities can handle more rules, while those with weaker capabilities need to rely on team support.
In investment or collaboration, assess your own strength: if strong, make independent decisions; if weak, seek partners.

🍚 On the Appropriateness and Taboos of Food God

Core Concept 💡
Food God represents talent output and creativity. A strong Day Master needs Food God to express brilliance, while a weak Day Master needs Rob Energy to share the pressure of Food God.

Modern Interpretation 🌟

Food God as Useful God must not be taken away: During periods of high creativity, avoid excessive constraints from traditional frameworks (Seal Ribbon).
Favorable in Rob Wealth environment: When energy is insufficient, partners are needed to share pressure and avoid overexertion.

Practical Value ⚡

Creative workers should reduce administrative distractions during灵感爆发期 (inspiration bursts).
In the early stages of entrepreneurship, if resources are limited, actively seek partners to share pressure.

🎭 On the Appropriateness and Taboos of Hurt Officer

Core Concept 💡
Hurt Officer has dual characteristics of innovation and rebellion. Depending on the strength of the Day Master, it should be coordinated with Wealth, Seal, or Compare/Rob Energy to turn harm into benefit.

Modern Interpretation 🌟

Situation	Strategy	Modern Metaphor
Strong Day Master + Hurt Officer	Favorable with Wealth Star	Innovative talents need commercial channels to transform outcomes
Weak Day Master + Hurt Officer	Favorable with Seal Ribbon	When creativity is insufficient, strengthen learning to solidify foundations
Hurt Officer meets Direct Officer	Requires Wealth Star to resolve	When breaking rules, capital is needed to buffer risks
Hurt Officer + Compare/Rob Energy	Becomes support instead	Innovative projects require teams to share risks

Practical Value ⚡

Innovative projects need matching resource support (Wealth Star) and should avoid direct conflict with existing systems (Direct Officer).
When personal innovation capability is insufficient, improve through learning (Seal Ribbon) or collaboration (Compare/Rob Energy).

💰 On the Appropriateness and Taboos of Wealth Star

Core Concept 💡
Wealth Star represents resources and opportunities, which must match the Day Master’s capacity. Too much overwhelms, too little is insufficient.

Modern Interpretation 🌟

Wealth Star must not be robbed: Important resources need protection to avoid dispersion and consumption (Compare/Rob Energy robs Wealth).
Strong Wealth + Strong Day Master + Direct Officer: Resource advantage + capability + rule protection = perfect combination 🌟
Excessive Wealth + Weak Day Master: Requires learning and improvement (Seal Ribbon) or collaboration to share pressure (Compare/Rob Energy).
Abandoning Life to Follow Wealth: In extreme cases,顺应趋势 (follow the trend) and leverage the situation.

Practical Value ⚡

Asset allocation must match personal management capability; if beyond capacity, delegate to professional institutions (Compare/Rob Energy management).
When facing major opportunities with insufficient strength, consider cooperative models like "借船出海" (borrowing a boat to sail the sea).

👑 On the Appropriateness and Taboos of Direct Officer

Core Concept 💡
Direct Officer symbolizes rules and honor. It needs protection (Seal Ribbon) and resource support (Wealth Star), and must avoid destruction (Hurt Officer).

Modern Interpretation 🌟

Must not be harmed: Rule systems need maintenance;破坏规则 (breaking rules) leads to chaos.
Weak Direct Officer favors Wealth: When authority is insufficient, resource support is needed to enhance influence.
Direct Officer and Seal Ribbon mutually reinforce: Power combined with wisdom achieves great things.
Excessive Direct Officer requires restraint: Overly rigid constraints need appropriate breakthroughs (Hurt Officer restrains Direct Officer).

Practical Value ⚡

Workplace promotion requires both capability (Seal Ribbon) and performance (Wealth Star).
When systems are too rigid, innovative mechanisms (Hurt Officer) are needed for optimization.

⚔️ On the Appropriateness and Taboos of Seven Killing

Core Concept 💡
Seven Killing is like pressure and challenges. A strong Day Master can transform Killing into authority; a weak Day Master needs restraint or compliance.

Modern Interpretation 🌟

Strong Day Master + Shallow Killing: When pressure is insufficient, actively seek challenges to stimulate potential.
Heavy Killing + Weak Day Master: When pressure is excessive, improve skills (Food God restrains Killing) or seek shelter (Seal Ribbon transforms Killing).
Follow Killing Pattern: In extreme pressure environments,顺应趋势 (follow the trend) and leverage the situation for development.

Practical Value ⚡

Moderate pressure promotes growth; excessive pressure requires relief mechanisms.
In high-pressure industries, choose roles that match your tolerance.

🛡️ On the Appropriateness and Taboos of Seal Ribbon

Core Concept 💡
Seal Ribbon represents learning and shelter. Too much leads to dependency; too little leaves one unsupported.

Modern Interpretation 🌟

Excessive Seal Ribbon favors Wealth: Overly academic approaches need practical application (Wealth Star breaks Seal Ribbon).
Seal Ribbon must not be broken: Core knowledge systems need protection to avoid destruction by utilitarianism.

Practical Value ⚡

Theoretical learning must integrate with practice to avoid becoming an out-of-touch bookworm.
Core knowledge assets need protection but should not be overprotected to the point of rigidity.

🧠 Philosophical Reflections 🤔

The essence of the appropriateness and taboos of the Ten Gods is the wisdom of dynamic balance:

Relativity of Strength and Weakness: There are no absolutely auspicious or inauspicious gods, only suitable or unsuitable configurations.
Ecological Thinking: The Ten Gods form an ecosystem of personal destiny, requiring mutual restraint and balance.
Follow the Trend: The philosophy of "Follow Pattern" in extreme situations reflects Eastern flexibility and adaptability.

Chapter Note: All analyses are based on the strength of the Day Master as the guiding principle and the appropriateness and taboos of the Useful God as the details. The sages used human relationships and worldly wisdom to寓劝于惩 (advise through warning). This interpretation follows the order of the Ten Gods' interactions, aligning with the life development logic of "body → ability → resources → rules → wisdom."
