The Follow Wealth Structure: Unveiling Financial Opportunities and Life Patterns

Last updated

In traditional Chinese destiny reading, the Follow Wealth structure (Cong Cai Ge) is a special structure that reveals a person's unique characteristics regarding financial opportunities and life patterns. The formation of this structure often signifies an ability to seize wealth opportunities and achieve great fortune and high status in life.

Methods for Identifying the Follow Wealth Structure

To identify the Follow Wealth structure, one must first determine whether the Day Master (Ri Zhu) is extremely weak and lacks the support of Resource or Friend stars. This means the Day Master has no primary root or secondary root in the Earthly Branches (Di Zhi), while the Four Pillars (Si Zhu) are filled with "Wealth stars," or the Wealth stars band together to form a frame, nourished by Food and Output stars, creating a highly concentrated and dominant elemental force. Specifically, identification can be based on the following aspects:

  • A Rootless Day Master: The Day Stem has no primary root or secondary root in the branches.
  • Wealth Holding the Month Command: The Month Command (Yue Ling) is a Wealth star, and the branches form a Wealth frame (e.g., a Metal Day Master seeing Yin, Mao, and Chen), or the Wealth stars have a multitude of allies.
  • An Absolute Absence of Resource and Friend Stars: There are no Resource stars or Rob Wealth stars in the Four Pillars (especially in the Heavenly Stems (Tian Gan)). Seeing them breaks the structure.
  • A Preference for Food, Output, Officer, and Killings Stars: If the pillars contain Food and Output stars generating Wealth, the Wealth has a source; if Officer and Killings stars protect the Wealth, honor and wealth will both be complete.

Practical Examples of the Follow Wealth Structure

Take the BaZi of the renowned Song Dynasty statesman Fan Zhongyan as an example: Ji Chou, Gui You, Ding Chou, and Xin Chou. In this chart, the Ding Fire Day Master is born in the You month, with the Wealth star (Metal) holding the Month Command. The three Chou and one You in the branches combine into a powerful Si-You-Chou Metal frame (a Wealth frame), and the Heavenly Stems further reveal the Xin Metal Wealth star, giving the Wealth energy an absolute advantage. The Ding Fire Day Master lacks a strong root in the branches; in the stems, the Ji Earth Eating God drains the Day Master to generate Wealth, while the Gui Water Seven Killings restrains the Day Master. With absolutely no Wood or Fire Resource and Friend stars for support, this is a true structure of "abandoning life to follow Wealth." Because the prosperous Wealth generates the Seven Killings, he was able to translate his literary talents (Eating God) into martial and political achievements (Seven Killings), ultimately rising to the rank of prime minister.

The Connection Between the Follow Wealth Structure and Real Life

Individualals with the Follow Wealth structure often possess shrewd and capable business minds, excelling at creating and seizing financial opportunities. Their lives are inextricably linked to money, resources, and networks, allowing them to channel all their energy toward wealth creation. However, because they completely submit to Wealth, these individuals can easily neglect development in other areas, such as family and health.

Practical Key Points and Usage Suggestions

    1. When analyzing the Follow Wealth structure, pay attention to whether the Day Master is extremely weak, whether the Wealth star holds the Month Command, and whether the Four Pillars lack Resource and Friend stars.
