Bazimingshu

due to affinity and passion – a passion which I hold as my personal life mission to fulfill. My mission is to change the misconceptions and unfortunate superstitions surrounding this infinite knowledge which is very much imprinted in people mind by the books they have read before. It is indeed an uphill task but my intention is to correct the misconceptions people have with regards to Bazi and Feng Shui. Bazi and Feng Shui are both a forms of environment studies and do not involve superstitions of any kind. If you come across most Chinese classical texts, you may be familiar with words like “Useful God”, “Seven Killing”, “Rob Wealth” and “Hurting Officer”. These words are often mistaken and most people fear the negative meanings during their consultation with a Feng Shui Master. To begin, we have to understand that Chinese culture is different from Western culture. The expression and interpretation may also differ in many ways. The term “Useful God” is not the kind of god we worship; it is the term used to describe the element that is most beneficial to an individual. For example when a hungry man is dying of hunger and a man comes forth to offer him a bowl of warm rice, to the starving man, the person who gave him the warm rice to fill his empty belly is like a god descent from heaven and a savior to him. Therefore he is god-like to him and thus this is how the word “Useful God” derived from in the classical text. It also means the element that is most useful to an individual’s Bazi chart structure, and destiny luck. The word “Seven Killing” sounds like someone is in deep trouble - if this phrase pops up in their luck it most likely means trouble. To be exact it may not be true because good things can happen for certain individuals who are going through this luck or even in their Bazi chart.

“Hurting Officer” on the other hand can be a blessing in disguise. When a person hears the word “Rob Wealth” they often assume that their money will be taken away or robbed by friends. The truth is if money does not appear in the chart nobody can rob them and by the way not all friends can rob your wealth. In order to being rob, the criteria must be present. Each individual’s environment carries a certain Qi and we need to understand which Qi is good and bad. In a Bazi reading, there is “Noble God”, “Useful God”, “Idle God”, and “Negative God.”

Here are some words of wisdom; the Wealth must not be subject to rob, the Officer must not be harm, the Resource must not be hurt and the Eating God must not be seized. To help people, we must know when to advance and when to retreat and the logic behind in prescribing Bazi and Feng Shui cures. When we do not understand life, we are like a deaf person, if we understand life and what it will bring; we are in control of the outcome in our lives. Only then can we help others who are in need.
