论妇人总诀
推妇人之命，与男命大不同。草堂丁进士先生，作元神趣八法。照返鬼伏，属类从化。女命八法，纯和清贵，浊乱娼*。取官为夫为福星。财旺生官，则夫纳福。印绶食神为名贵有称呼，生气印绶，难为子息。印绶财官，必生于富贵之家。才貌贤淑，甲日见辛酉，是正夫，丁午字伤正夫，庚辰是偏夫。如庚申辛酉重，乃伤夫再嫁。若财太多，官煞太旺，乃明暗夫集。多而且滥，财多富而。故女人要财薄，旺夫益子，如官得地。七煞受伤，食神干旺。印绶天月二德，夫荣子贵。封赠之命，妇人八字伤官，官煞混杂。食神财旺身衰，为人妒害。好色贪婪，凶顽可畏。伤官见官，克夫再嫁。身心劳役，虽不伤夫，亦有病患。平生欠福，多子不安。大忌年上伤官，主产厄带疾。否则寿伤，伤官主人聪明。美貌秀气，伤官见财者富。无财者贫，劫财败财，伤官身旺。贫贱下格，以上十五格，皆是冲官逢合。俱有伤官之忌，虽是富贵，不免*滥之风。七煞正官·只要一位者良，煞多则夫多，官煞被合。
侍婢妾，姊妹争权。凡如甲用辛官丙合是也。乙庚官见丁是，戊用乙官见辛是也。此是被合取之。余仿此。主妇招嫁不定，八字中伤官及官星死绝孤辰寡宿。日时空亡，乃孤克之命。或天干透出官煞，地支无官煞，更临休囚死绝退气之地，乃女绝其夫之气。当作偏房爱妾推之命，若有天月二德，无产厄血光之患，亦无*滥之气。女命只要身弱，主性纯粹，能温柔而奉侍公姑，助益夫主。身强欺夫，不孝公姑，是非生事，性多急燥，身弱为病，身强亦然。八字喜贵，不宜驿马咸池，要纯和柔弱，不宜刚健太强。岁运亦同，外有阴差阳错。孤鸯之日，不利嫁娶。
皆无花烛成亲，因亲致眷，寒房孝娶，婚姻转折。孤鸾煞云，木虎孀无胥，金猪岂有郎。赤黄马独卧，熙鼠守空房。主女寡而男孤，时中并冲。女则难为夫嗣，如以空亡时日孤克。不待言而可知。八字官煞俱背，却行官煞本运，乃夫星得地则孤。八字财官俱有，运行伤官劫财之地，难为夫宫。运过方嫁，细推甚验。
妇人取官责为夫，主夫青则妻荣，如女梦托长松之谓。丁午乃阴少而克辛金，故曰伤正夫。如夫星旺，伤官不能伤之，主自己少福多病之断。如夫害则要亦不安也。一然一夫一官一夫不宜重见，重则主二夫也。官星死绝，犹夫死绝。咸池即桃花煞，主*，更有驿马主私奔远游。赤谓金生，人黄谓土青，谓水生犯者主此。
阴命赋
凡观阴命，先观夫主之盛衰，次论身荣，要见子息之强弱。夫荣子旺，定知富贵荣华。子死夫衰，只是孤穷下贱。有夫有子而贫寒者，盖因身在衰乡。无夫无子而昌盛者，亦是身居旺地。若贵人少者，不富亦昌，合贵神非妓即妮。论*贱者，四柱伤官。暗招财损，招婿者夫显于门户之中。偏夫者，夫旺于日时之上。夫衰身旺，主为廉洁之人。鬼旺身衰，必作孤寒滥妇。凡观阴命之五行，要精察明详矣。
女人取食神，为子甲人食丙乙食丁之类；食神生旺，有气则言子有责，或福之断。
阴命富贵贫贱篇
欲推女命，先看官星。官带煞而贫贱，官得令以安荣。伤官太重必妨夫，且是为人性重。倒食重逢须减福，那堪更犯孤神。煞重须奔贵室，合多定损真名。坐禄乘舆而稳厚，充身动步以浮轻。若乃桃花浪滚，奔之耻不堪言。日禄归时，贵重为人所敬。天月二德，以为本命。如逢印
绶，贵当两国之封。时H羊刃，本是凶神。既不利于夫主之官，兼损害乎平生之性。身干主祯祥，时犯金神建旺。要观八字之强，专食子荣。忌偏印窃身之胜，守闺门而正静。必山阴日守中和，待夫婿经营。此乃阳干支旺甚，大抵欣逢正。禄怕犯咸池，清贵得长生之，辅杂浊以败气之归。四柱败多，大忌冲身而犯，合一生忙甚，若非是妓即为妮。印坏与公姑相妒，食专得子嗣之宜。官煞重逢，须防乱。姊妹透出，便见争夫。魁罡有灵变之机，日贯有安常之福。即以干支分定，官煞胜而无制伏。不为娼妓，定作妮姑。
奔者不得其正。礼曰聘则为妻，奔则为妾，犹卓文夜奔相如之类。身干，日主也。金神辛丑辛巳辛酉己酉巳百丑金局时，上谓金神时。日责癸卯癸巳丁酉丁亥，四日是也。
On the General Principles of Female Fate
When analyzing a woman's fate, it differs significantly from that of a man. Scholar Ding Jinshi of the Thatched Cottage proposed the "Eight Methods of Primordial Spirit Dynamics," which include Illumination, Return, Ghost, Hidden, Belonging, Category, Following, and Transformation. The Eight Methods for female fate emphasize: a pure and harmonious fate configuration results in nobility and elegance, while a turbid and chaotic one may lead to a life of impropriety. The Official Star represents the husband and fortune; strong Wealth fosters the Official Star, bringing the husband good fortune; the Seal Ribbon and Eating God signify reputation and honor. However, an overly strong Seal Ribbon may harm offspring. A combination of Seal Ribbon, Wealth, and Official Star often indicates a noble background, with the woman being talented, beautiful, and virtuous. For example: for a Day Master Jia, encountering Xin-You signifies the rightful husband, while Ding-Wu may harm the rightful husband, and Geng-Chen represents a secondary husband. Repeated appearances of Geng-Shen or Xin-You may lead to the loss of a husband and remarriage. Excessive Wealth Stars or overly strong Official and Killing Stars suggest a mix of overt and covert relationships, leading to a chaotic life. For a woman, a thin Wealth Star is favorable, as it benefits the husband and children. An Official Star in its rightful position, a controlled Seven Killings, a strong Eating God, or a Seal Ribbon with the Virtues of Heaven and Moon indicate an honorable husband and distinguished children, possibly earning titles. The clash of the Hurting Officer and Official Star, mixed Official and Killing Stars, or a strong Eating God and Wealth with a weak self often result in jealousy, greed, and a fearsome, stubborn nature. The clash of Hurting Officer and Official Star may lead to the loss of a husband and remarriage, along with illness and toil; a Hurting Officer in the Year Pillar suggests childbirth difficulties or a short life. Those with a Hurting Officer are intelligent and beautiful; with Wealth, they prosper; without Wealth, they struggle. Those with Robbing Wealth, Hurting Officer, and a strong self are of low status and poverty. The above fifteen patterns, if clashing with the Official Star or meeting combinations, carry the risks of the Hurting Officer; even if wealthy and noble, they may not avoid a life of romantic entanglements. It is best to have only one Seven Killings or Official Star; multiple Killings indicate multiple husbands, and combined Official or Killing Stars may lead to becoming a concubine or conflicts among sisters. For example: Jia's use of the Xin Official being combined with Bing, or Yi's use of the Geng Official encountering Ding combination, suggest unstable marriages. A fate configuration with Hurting Officer and a dead or exhausted Official Star, Solitary and Widow Stars, or empty blanks in the Day and Hour Pillars indicates a lonely and restrictive fate. If the Official or Killing Stars appear in the heavenly stems but lack roots in the earthly branches and are in a state of rest or imprisonment, the woman lacks the energy of a husband and is likely to become a concubine. The Virtues of Heaven and Moon can avert childbirth difficulties and bloodshed, indicating a pure nature. A weak body in a woman's fate suggests a gentle and filial nature, while a strong body may lead to dominating the husband and causing trouble. The fate configuration should avoid the Horse of Travel and the Pool of Immortality (Xianchi), favoring purity, harmony, and softness; the same applies to annual cycles. Inauspicious days like the Mismatched and Lone Phoenix days (e.g., "Wood Tiger Widow" refers to Jia-Yin day, "Golden Pig" to Xin-Hai day, etc.) are unfavorable for marriage, often leading to twists and turns. If the Official or Killing Stars face unfavorable cycles, loneliness may ensue; with Wealth and Official Stars present but cycles encountering Hurting Officer or Robbing Wealth, marriage may be difficult until the cycle passes.
Ode of Yin Life
To analyze a woman's fate, first observe the strength of the Husband Star (Official Star), then examine her own honor or disgrace and the strength of her offspring. A prosperous husband and thriving children lead to wealth and nobility; dead children and a declining husband mean poverty and low status. Having a husband and children but living in poverty is due to the self being in a declining position; having no husband or children but thriving is due to the self residing in a prosperous position. Few Noble People may not bring wealth but still prosperity; combining with Noble Gods may easily lead to a life of entertainment. A strong Hurting Officer often indicates covert wealth but difficulties in attracting a husband; a secondary husband is revealed in the Day and Hour Pillars. A declining husband and strong self suggest integrity; strong Ghost (Killing Star) and weak self lead to loneliness and coldness. Careful observation of the Five Elements is key. The Eating God represents the Children Star (e.g., Jia person's Eating God is Bing, Yi person's Eating God is Ding); a strong and vibrant Eating God indicates honorable and blessed children.
Chapter on Wealth, Nobility, Poverty, and Humility in Yin Life
For a woman's fate, the Official Star is paramount: an Official Star with Killing leads to poverty and low status; an Official Star in command brings peace and honor. A heavy Hurting Officer harms the husband and indicates a strong nature; the Inverted Eating (Partial Seal) reduces blessings and brings loneliness and misfortune. Heavy Killing may lead to marriage into a noble family, but many combinations damage reputation. Sitting on the禄 (Lu) and riding the chariot indicates steadiness; a filled body and moving steps suggest frivolity. Peach Blossom waves rolling indicate promiscuity; the Day禄 returning to the Hour brings respect. The Virtues of Heaven and Moon as the natal fate, meeting the Seal Ribbon, may lead to titles. A羊刃 (Yang Blade) in the Hour Pillar harms the husband and damages nature; a strong Day Master meeting the Golden Spirit (e.g., hours like Xin-Chou, Xin-Si, etc.) requires examining the strength of the fate configuration. A focused Eating God (strong Eating God) brings children's honor; avoid the Partial Seal seizing the Eating God. A neutral Day Master maintains quietude in the chamber; strong yang stems and branches indicate managing and assisting the husband. Favor the proper禄, fear the Pool of Immortality (Xianchi); pure nobility gains the support of长生 (Long Life), while turbidity and defeated energy lead to failure. Many defeated elements in the Four Pillars avoid clashing with the self or meeting combinations; a life of busyness or entertainment may follow. A damaged Seal Ribbon leads to conflict with in-laws; a beneficial Eating God benefits offspring. Repeated Official and Killing Stars guard against promiscuity;透出 (revealed) sisters compete for the husband. The魁罡 (Kuigang) indicates spiritual change; the Day Noble suggests stability. Strong Official and Killing Stars without control may lead to a life of entertainment or monasticism. "Elopement" refers to unofficial marriages, like Zhuo Wenjun eloping with Sima Xiangru. The body stem is the Day Master; the Golden Spirit hour refers to hours like Xin-Chou, Xin-Si, etc., forming metal configurations; the Day Noble refers to days like Gui-Mao, Gui-Si, etc.
The analysis of a woman's fate centers on the Husband Star (Official Star) and the Children Star (Eating God), emphasizing a pure configuration and balanced Five Elements. The Official Star represents marriage and social status, while the Eating God symbolizes offspring and blessings; harmful stars like the Hurting Officer and Official/Killing Stars often indicate adversity. Traditionally, a woman's fate should favor softness over strength; a weak body is considered auspicious, while a strong body often brings misfortune, reflecting ancient gender role perspectives.
The theory of female fate reflects the constraints imposed on women in ancient patriarchal societies, such as the dependency implied in "husband's honor, wife's nobility." Modern interpretations should extract the essence—the relationship between personality and circumstances revealed by the interplay of the Five Elements—rather than fixed destiny. For example, "mixed Official and Killing Stars" can be contemplated as the challenge of balancing multiple life roles (e.g., career and family), encouraging dynamic adaptation over fatalism.
