Original author’s interpretation summary
The text chiefly relies on the third line, You Metal in the Officials/Ghosts category, occupying the host position and matching the month reference. It also notes that this changing line changes to Wu Fire, producing returning control. Waiting for a Zi day to clash away Wu Fire is therefore a condition in the author’s judgment.
Outcome reported in the book
The text says the audience was obtained on a Bing-Zi day. This result belongs solely to the author’s record and has not been independently fact-checked by the site.
Site review boundaries
- Recalculation from bottom to top yields Gu, with old yang at line three. Flipping that line yields Meng, matching the text.
- Matching the month reference and returning control are two distinct structures. They are recorded separately, not compressed into a single fortune label.
- The author’s timing judgment is a historical divination interpretation and is not included in the site’s automatic inference rules.
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.
Return generation / control
Five-phase relation implementation
Returning generation and control compare only the changed phase acting back on the original phase of an actual changing line: the changed line generates or controls the original line. The site does not invent additional names for same-phase, draining or consuming relations, or for the original line acting on the changed line.
These names describe direction only. They do not independently determine the author’s reported outcome and are not converted into scores.
