夫七杀者，亦名偏官，喜身旺合杀、喜制伏、喜阳刃；忌身弱、忌见财，生忌无制。
身旺有气为偏官，身弱无制为七杀。
凡有此杀不可便言凶？有正官不如有偏官，多有巨富大贵之人；惟其身旺合杀为妙。
如甲以庚为七杀，喜丙丁制之；乙合之，谓之『贪合忘杀』。
七杀却宜制伏，亦不要制之太过；盖物极则反为祸矣！
身旺又行身旺之运为福。
如身弱又行身弱之乡，祸不旋踵。
四柱中元有制伏，喜行七杀运；元无制伏，七杀出为祸。
如行身旺乡，更有阳刃，贵不可言；但忌财旺，财能生杀故也。岁运临之，身旺亦多灾；身弱尤甚。
甲申、乙酉、丁丑、戊寅、己卯、辛未、癸未，此七日生主杀，性急伶俐、心巧聪明。
如见杀多者，主人凶夭贫薄；月见之重，时见之轻。何也？日七杀，只一位见之，如年时再见，杀多为祸；却要制伏之乡，又要身旺有制伏为权，最怕冲与阳刃大凶。
时七杀只一位，要本身旺，如年月时三处有制伏为福；却要行杀旺运，运三合得地亦发；若无制伏，则要行制伏为福。
行杀旺运无制伏，则祸作。
时上七杀，却不怕阳刃，而亦不畏冲。
如【辛丑，乙未，乙卯，丙子】：此命身旺，生于六月之中，岁干透出辛丑为七杀；喜得丙子合辛丑之杀，乃贵而有权。
如【甲午，丙寅，庚子，丙子】：此命身弱，见火局，又见月令丙寅七杀，时又见丙子；火剋庚金，金死于子，身弱杀旺，又无制伏，宜乎带病贫薄。
如【丁巳，戊申，壬子，戊申】：此命身旺，见二戊为七杀，引归于巳；丁与壬合，戊与癸合，金又长生于巳，戊禄在巳；乃壬戊二字俱旺，所以贵也。
The Seven Killings, also known as Partial Authority, favor a strong Day Master that can harmonize the Killing, effective controlling methods (such as the Seal Star or the Eating-Hurting combination), and encountering the Blade Edge (Rob Wealth to strengthen the body). They dislike a weak Day Master, Wealth Stars that nourish the Killing, and lack of control 🔥. When the body is strong and rooted, it manifests as Partial Authority (auspicious), but when the body is weak and uncontrolled, it becomes the Seven Killings (inauspicious). The presence of the Seven Killings does not necessarily mean complete misfortune—it can sometimes be more powerful than the Direct Authority, easily producing great wealth and nobility 🌰. The key lies in a strong body harmonizing the Killing.
For example, the Day Master of Wood甲 (Jia) takes Metal庚 (Geng) as the Seven Killings and favors Fire丙丁 (Bing-Ding) to control it. If Wood乙 (Yi) harmonizes with Metal庚 (Geng), it results in "infatuation with harmony forgetting the Killing" (weakening its inauspicious nature). The Seven Killings require control but should not be over-controlled (extremes invite reversal ⚖️). A strong body during prosperous luck brings blessings, while a weak body during unfavorable luck invites disaster 🌪️. If the natal chart has controlling mechanisms, the Seven Killings luck is favorable; without control, the appearance of the Killing brings calamity. A strong body encountering the Blade Edge leads to great nobility, but it dislikes excessive Wealth (Wealth nourishes the Killing)—encountering such in annual or major luck, a strong body faces many disasters, and a weak body suffers even more.
Those born on days like Jia-Shen (甲申) or Yi-You (乙酉) carry the Seven Killings and tend to be impulsive, sharp-witted, and clever 🧠. Excessive Seven Killings indicate misfortune, early demise, poverty, or insignificance. The Seven Killings in the Month Pillar have a strong impact, while those in the Hour Pillar have a lighter effect. The Day Pillar should ideally have only one Seven Killing; reappearance in the Year or Hour Pillar requires control and a strong body. The worst scenarios involve clashes or stimulation by the Blade Edge, which are highly inauspicious ⛔. A single Seven Killing in the Hour Pillar does not fear the Blade Edge or clashes. If the Year, Month, and Hour Pillars all have control mechanisms, it brings fortune, and prosperous Killing luck or Triple Harmony in favorable locations leads to success. Without control, one must rely on controlling luck; otherwise, disaster arises.
The Seven Killings represent pressure and challenges, requiring "restraint and transformation" to become a noble pattern. The key lies in dynamic balance: a strong body can harness the Killing as authority, while a weak body is crushed by it. Insufficient control leads to danger, while excessive control dulls its edge.
The Seven Killings reveal the dialectical view that "crisis is opportunity": no pressure, no growth ⚖️, but one must act within their means. Extremes invite reversal, warning modern people against overwork—excessive control is like excessive complacency, stifling breakthrough potential.
