Original author’s interpretation summary

The author selects the Yin Wood Wife / wealth line as Yongshen. Although it matches the month reference and controls the host-position line, it remains void within the ten-day cycle containing Geng-Xu. The author therefore distinguishes not obtaining wealth at present from reconsidering after the cycle ends.

Outcome reported in the book

The text records that wealth was later obtained on a Jia-Yin day. This is the author’s retrospective report; the site has no independent historical evidence with which to verify it.

Site review boundaries

  1. This is the static Fire-over-Heaven Dayou hexagram. The text supplies no changing lines and no resulting hexagram.
  2. The site can check the line pattern, Najia Six Relations, host and response positions and Yin–Mao void branches for Geng-Xu. The missing Gregorian year prevents reconstruction of a complete date.
  3. The wealth judgment and date correspondence in this individual case must not be transferred directly to modern divination results.

Reading boundaries

Reported outcomes represent the original author’s account, not independent historical verification. This case is not an automatic interpretation template for a user’s present result.

Topic tags identify structures involved in this case, not divinatory efficacy verified by the site.

Working translation of the site’s Chinese editorial case review, not a translation of the classical source. Native-language review is pending; original source names and locators remain in Chinese.

Month and day branches

Calendrical structure implementation

The month reference uses the branch of the solar-term month; the day reference uses the day branch for the selected time-zone date. Zengshan Buyi and Yilin Buyi both use these references in subsequent discussions of strength, generation, control, clashes and combinations. The site calculates them with its calendar engine and cross-checks the month and day recorded in each case.

Month and day are chart references, not independent fortune judgments. A classical case without a year cannot identify a unique Gregorian date.

Ten-day-cycle void

Structural implementation

The day’s ten-day cycle determines two void branches. Both works discuss further conditions involving phase strength, changing or unchanging lines, and clashes that fill the void. This site calculates only the day pillar’s cycle and void branches and lists the relevant line positions; it does not apply subsequent judgments such as being void yet not void.

Cycle void is a calendrical structure, not a statement that an undertaking is ineffective. It does not automatically determine outcomes or timing.
