八、地支
Earthly Branch.
阳支动且强，速达显灾祥；
Yang Branches movement is strong, the arrival of disaster or good luck will be fast
and prominent.
阴支静且专，否泰每经年。
Yin Branches is still but
focused, the result can last for the whole year.
原注：
子、寅、辰、午、申、戌，阳也，其性动，其势强，其发至速，其灾祥至显；
丑、卯、巳、未、酉、亥，阴也，其性静，其气专，发之不速，而否泰之验，每至经年而后见。

Zi, Yin, Chen, Wu, Shen, Xu, Yang Branches, natural to move, strong power, the speed
is fast (growth), disaster or good luck arrive prominently;
Chou, Mao, Si, Wei, You, Hai, Yin Branches, natural to be still, the Qi is focused,
the speed is slow (growth), it appears at the beginning of the year but the
result will only manifest at the end of the year.
原文白話翻譯：
十二地支裡面， 分持陽地支、 陰地支， 陽地支是子、寅、辰、午、申、戌等六個叫做陽地支， 陽地支的特質來說， 比較好動活潑， 而且力量較為強大， 對於吉凶禍福的 反應也較為顯著及快速。
陰地支是丑、卯、巳、未、酉、亥等六個， 陰地支的特質來說， 比較安靜沉默，力量較集中專注，對於吉凶禍福的反應也較為遲緩， 而且往往要等上一段時間， 甚至到第二年才顯示出來。
筆者評註：(陳哲毅)
依照傳統的排列方式，單數為陽、雙數為陰，因此子開始為陽，丑接著是陰，這樣有順序的排列下去，產生了陽地支、陰地支的差別。
但是就實際的八字論命，要將地支轉換成支藏人元，跟日主的生剋關係，所以產生十神星來看，就會發現大有矛盾。
因為子水藏的癸水，癸水是屬於陰的，但子水卻歸類為陽， 午火藏的丁火，丁火是屬於陰的， 午火卻被歸類為陽，
巳火藏的丙火， 丙火是屬於陽， 卻被歸類為陰， 亥水藏的壬水，壬水是陽的，壬水卻被歸類為陰， 以上這些分類，顯然大有問題。
因此正確的分類方式，應該以支藏人元，
配合十神星的變化，才會比較準確一點。
陽地支：子、午、卯、酉、丑、未
陰地支：寅、申、巳、亥、辰、戌
至於地支陽主動，陰主靜的說法，不少人有著疑問，因為實際上，論命是以天干的生剋制為主，明顯的程度較高，地支的合沖行會，除非四柱全部動搖，或是形成兩神相違的局面，哪麼吉凶禍福的反應，當然就相當的激烈。
任氏曰：
Ren comment:
地支有以子至巳为阳，午至亥为阴者，
Earthly Branches can be divided
into Yang from Zi to Si, Yin from Wu to Hai,
此从冬至阳生、夏至阴生论；
Or considered Yang born from Winter, Yin born from Summer;
有以寅至未为阳，申至丑为阴者，
Also some considered Yin Wood to
Wei as Yang, Shen to Chou as Yin,
此分木火为阳，金水为阴也。
Can also consider Wood
Fire as Yang, Metal Water as Yin.
命家以子、寅、辰、午、申、戌为阳，
Destiny reader uses Zi, Yin, Chen, Wu, Shen, Xu as Yang,
丑、卯、巳、未、酉、亥为阴。
Chou, Mao, Si, Wei, Hai as Yin,
若子从癸、午从丁，是体阳而用阴也；
Or Zi
from Gui, Wu from Ding, the
body is Yang but the application is Yin.
巳从丙，亥从壬，是体阴而用阳也。
Si from Bing, Hai from Ren, the
body is Yin but application is Yang.
分别取用，亦惟刚柔健顺之理，与天干无异，
Use separatedly,
using the theory of hard, soft, to strengthen, to follow, no difference from
the HS,
但生克制化，其理多端，盖一支所藏或二干，或三干故耳。
But the growing, countering,
control, transform, the logic is many and varied, due to some Branches with 2
HS, some with 3 HS.
然以本气为主，寅必先甲而后及丙，
The main Qi is the host, Yin will have Jia first
followed by Bing,
申必先庚而后及壬，余支皆然。
Shen will have Geng first followed by Ren, the same for the other branches.
阳支性动而强，吉凶之验恒速；
Yang Branches movement is
strong, the experience of the auspiciousness is fast,
阴支性静而弱，祸福之应较迟。
Yin Branches is still and weak,
the arrival of disaster or good fortune is slower,
在局在运，均以此意消息之。
It has the same effect for Luck
Pillar and Annual Pillar.
生方怕动库宜开，败地逢冲仔细推。
Growth direction fear movement,
store appropriate to open, failure land meeting clashes to analyse
in detail.
原注：
寅、申、巳、亥生方也，忌冲动；辰、戌、丑、未四库也，宜冲开。
子、午、卯、酉四败也，有逢合而喜冲者，不若生地之必不可冲也；
有逢冲而喜合者，不若库地之必不可闲也。须仔细详之。
Original text:
Yin, Shen,
Si, Hai, the four growth direction, hates clashes and
movement;
Chen, Xu,
Chou, Wei, the four store, appropriate to be open.
Zi, Wu, Mao, You, the four failed land, when meeting combination
likes to be clash, unlike the four growth directions which must not be clashed;
when meeting clash likes to be combined, unlike the storage lands which likes
to be opened. To analyse in
details.
原文白話翻譯：
Original text in simple Chinese:
寅、申、巳、亥是木、火、金、水的長生之地。
Yin, Shen,
Si, Hai, represent the four Chang Sheng for wood,
fire, metal and water.
辰、戌、丑、未是木、火、金、水的墓地，所以稱之為四庫。
Chen, Xu,
Chou, Wei, represent the four storage for wood, fire, metal and water.
子、午、卯、酉是木、火、金、水的仲氣，也叫做四敗。
Zi, Wu, Mao, You, represent the central Qi of wood, fire, metal,
water, also referred to as the four failed land. (Also the four Cardinal)
凡是四長生之地，最害怕逢沖，四墓之地，卻最喜歡逢沖。
The land of the four Chang Sheng, most scared of meeting clash, the four storage land,
most happy to meet clash.
只有四仲氣之地，一但有逢合時，就喜歡逢沖，若是逢沖時，就喜歡逢合。
Only the central Qi, when
meeting combination, likes to be clashed, or when meeting clash, likes to be
combined.
不像四長生地，永遠只喜歡逢合，或是四墓地只喜歡逢沖。
Unlike the four Chang Sheng
EB (Yin Shen Si Hai),
always likes to meet combination, or the four tomb (Chen Xu
Chou Wei) which always lieks to meet clash.
筆者評註：(陳哲毅) 寅申巳亥是長生之地，只喜歡逢合，不喜歡逢沖的原因，是因為寅藏甲木、申藏庚金，此兩者彼此相沖剋，巳藏丙火、亥藏壬水，此兩者彼此相沖剋，所以說四長生之地怕沖剋，若和合的話，就不沖不剋，所以說四長生之地喜歡逢合。 辰戌丑未是墓藏之地，只喜歡逢沖，不喜歡逢合的原因，是因為辰戌丑未的主氣，五行都是數於土，土逢土是比劫相助，逢沖的話，土將會更旺，所以說四墓藏之地，喜歡沖剋，而不喜歡和合，和合的話土將會更加旺盛。 事實上，實際八字論命，干支的沖剋和合，是要依喜忌神，以及觀看八字的全局來決定，不能說四長生之合就是好，沖就是差，或是四墓藏之地，沖就是好、合就是差，這很容易出差錯，讀者不妨參考就好。
任氏曰：旧说云，金水能冲木火，木火不能冲金水，此论天干则可，论地支则不可。
Ren comment:
Old saying; Metal Water can
clash Wood Fire, Wood Fire cannot clash Metal Water, this is only applicable
when discussing HS, not necessary for EB.
盖地支之气多不专，有他气藏在内也。
Due to the mixed Qi in EB, other
Qi are hidden inside the EB.
须看他气乘权得势，即木火亦岂不能冲金水乎？
Must study the power of the Qi,
why Wood Fire cannot clash Metal Water?
生方怕动者，两败俱伤也。
The growth directions dislike
movement, both suffers damage.
假如寅申逢冲，申中庚金，克寅中甲木，寅中丙火，未尝不克申中庚金；
If Yin Shen
meets clash, the Geng metal inside Shen, counter the Jia wood inside
Yin, the Bing inside Yin, not necessary will not counter the Geng metal inside Shen.
申中壬水，克寅中丙火，寅中戊土，未尝不克申中壬水。
The Ren
water inside Shen, counter the Bing fire inside Yin,
Wu earth inside Yin, not necessary will not clash the Ren
water inside Shen.
战克不静故也。
So the battle and countering
continues.
库宜开者，然亦有宜不宜，详在杂气章中。
Store appropriate to
open, also sometimes appropriate sometimes inappropriate, important to study
the miscellaneous Qi.
败地逢冲仔细推者，子、午、卯、酉之专气也，用金水则可冲，用木火则不可冲。
The failed land encounter clashes
to study carefully, Zi, Wu, Mao, You, the pure Qi,
can be clash with Metal Water, cannot be clashed by Wood Fire.
然亦须活看，不可执一。
Must use a flexible method,
cannot depend on just one.
倘用春夏之金水，则金水之气休囚，木火之势旺相，金水岂不反伤乎？
Supposing using Metal Water in Spring and Summer, when Metal Water is in prison and
resting, the power of Wood and Fire is very prosperous, why cant
the Metal and Water be damaged.
宜参究之。
Should investigate
carefully.
支神只以冲为重，刑与穿兮动不动。
Clash is the most important
consideration for EB, punishment and harm will not necessary cause
movement.
Kung comment: Movement refers to
structural stability.
原注：冲者必是相克，及四库兄弟之冲，所以必动；至于刑穿之间，又有相生相合者存，所以有动不动之异。
Original text:
Clashes represent ke/counter, for clashes involving the 4 storage will involved movement;
For punishment and harm,
it can involves producing, combining, therefore it does
not necessary means movement.
原文白話翻譯：
凡舉十二地支之間，就以六沖最值得研究與重視，因為逢沖的地支之間，彼此支藏的天干，一定會彼此相沖剋，引起動盪不安的現象，至於地支的刑害關係，有時候會產生動搖，有時候就不會動搖。
筆者評註：
干支六沖的話，就是寅申相沖、卯酉相沖、辰戌相沖、巳亥相沖、子午相沖、丑未相沖。
而宮位的話，年支是祖上宮位、月支是父母宮位、日支是夫妻宮位、時支是子 女宮位。 有哪個宮位相沖，通常就代表哪方面有問題，但還是要配合十神星觀看，情況就更加的明顯。
如男命夫妻宮， 如果是財星逢沖剋， 或是女命夫妻官， 如果是官殺星沖剋， 都代表夫妻感情動搖， 不安定的象徵， 而且問題會直接反應出來。
任氏曰：地支逢冲，犹天干之相克也，须视其强弱喜忌而论之。
Clashes involving EB represents
HS countering, must observe the strength and weakness, the favorable and
unfavorable aspect to discuss further.
至于四库之冲，亦有宜不宜，
For the clashes involving the 4
storage, can also be good or bad,
如三月之辰，乙木司令，逢戌冲，则戌中辛金，亦能伤乙木；
For Chen 3rd month,
when Yi DHHS is in command, meeting Xu clash, denotes
the Xin inside Xu, is able
to damage the Yi wood;
六月之未，丁火司令，逢丑冲，则丑中癸水，亦能伤丁火。
For Wei 6th month,
when Ding DHHS is in command, meeting Chou clash, denotes the Gui inside chou,
is able to damage the Ding fire.
按三月之乙、六月之丁，虽属退气，若得司令，竟可为用，冲则受伤，不足用矣。
Chen 3rd month when
Yi DHHS in command, Wei 6th month when Ding DHHS in command, although
considered as retreating Qi, if it is the dominant Qi, indeed can still be
used, when clashed will be damaged, becomes insufficient for use.
所谓暮库逢冲则发者，后人之谬也。
To comment that clashes will
make tomb/store (the earth EB) prosperous, is a mistake or is absurb.
暮者，坟暮之意；
Mu, meaning of
Tomb/graveyard.
库者，木火金水收藏埋根之地，
Store, the storehouse of
the roots of wood, fire, metal and water.
譬如得气之坟，未开动而发福者也。
For instance a Tomb which
obtains Qi, before opening is already prosperous and fortunate.
Kung comment: Obtained Qi means
the dominant Hidden Heavenly Stem.
如木火金水之天干，地支无寅、卯、巳、午、申、酉、亥、子之禄旺，全赖辰戌丑未之身库通根，逢冲则微根拨尽，未有冲动而强旺者也。
For wood, fire, metal, water HS,
without Yin, Mao, Si, Wu, Shen, You, Hai, Zi in the EB which represent
the prosperous Lu (strong roots), will depends on Chen, Xu,
Chou, Wei for rooting. When clashed it represent disturbances to the roots.
Before clashes and movement, it is considered as prosperous due to the rooting
provided.
如不用司令，以土为喜神，冲之有益无损，盖土动则发生矣。
If Dominat
Qi is not used, with earth as favorable god, when clashed it is useful (no
harm), it happens as a result of earth movement.
Kung comment: When earth is
favorable, earth clashes will increase the earth Qi, therefore it is considered
good.
刑之义无所取，如亥刑亥、辰刑辰、酉刑酉、午刑午，谓之自刑，本支见本支，自谓同气，何以相刑？
The meaning of punishment cannot
be determined. Example Hai punish Hai,
Chen punish Chen, You punish You, Wu punish Wu, considered as self punishment, same EB meeting, same Elemental Qi
involves, why considered as punishment?
子刑卯，卯刑子，是谓相生，何以相刑？
Zi punish Mao, Mao punish Zi, it
represent producing cycle, why considered as punishment?
戌刑未，未刑丑，皆为土气，更不当刑。
Xu punish Wei, Wei punish Chou, both are
earth elemental Qi, definitedly not punishment.
寅刑巳，亦是相生，寅申相刑，即冲何必再刑？
Yin punish Si, represent
producing cycle, Yin Shen punishment, represent
clashes why further classified as punishment?
又曰子卯一刑也，寅巳申二刑也，丑戌未三刑也，故称三刑，又有自刑，
further classifying Zi Mao as one punishment,
Yin Si Shen as two punishment, Chou Xu Wei as three punishment, thereby calling it the 3
punishment, and adding self punishment,
此皆俗谬，姑置之。
These are all incorrect and
should not be used.
Kung comment: This is a very
interesting viewpoint not supported by the other classics. This is not in DTS.
It is only Ren’s opinion.
穿，即害也，六害由六合而来，冲我合神，故为之害，如子合丑而未冲，丑合子而午冲之类。
Pierce also harm, the 6
harms are derived from 6 combination. It clashes with the element that combines
with me, that’s the derivation of harm. Example Zi
combines with Chou but clashed by Wei, Chou combines with Zi
but clashed by Wu.
子未之害，无非相克，丑午寅亥之害，乃是相生，何以为害？
The harm od
Zi Wei, represent countering/ke,
the Harm of Chou, Wu, Yin, Hai, represent producing
cycle, why is it considered harm?
且刑既不足为凭，而害之义，尤为穿凿。
Moreover, Punishment is already
considered not adequate as a basis/fundamental. The meaning of Harm is also a
forced interpretation.
总以论其生克为是，
Always discuss on producing and
countering,
至于破之义，非害即刑也，
to establish the real meaning, not from punishment or harm,
尤属不经，削之可也。
not categorized from the classics, no harm to disregard.
暗冲暗会尤为喜，彼冲我兮皆冲起。
Hidden clashes and combinations
especially auspicious, when other clash me the clash
will be launched.
原注：如柱中无所缺之局，取多者暗冲暗会，冲起暗神，而来会合暗神，比明冲明会尤佳，
Original text:
A pillar without any
lacking in the structure, obtained many hidden clashes and combination, clashed
the hidden god to combine with the hidden god, even better than clashing and
combining openly.
子来冲午，寅与戌会午是也。
Zi clashing Wu, with Yin and Xu San Hui Wu in the chart.
Kung comment:
In such a scenario where
the Zi clashing the Wu. With Yin and Xu in the chart which
creates Yin Wu Xu Seasonal Combination, the Zi is clashing against the combination.
是日为我，提纲为彼；
The Day represent
me, the key point (month pillar) as the other;
提纲为我，年时为彼；
The key point
(month pillar) represent me, Year and hour as the other;
四柱为我，运途为彼；
the four pillar as me, the luck pillar as other;
运途为我，岁月为彼。
The luck pillar as me, the year
and month as other;
如我寅彼申，申能克寅，是彼冲我；
Example I am Yin and the other
is Shen, Shen can counter
Yin, denotes other clash me;
我子彼午，子能克午，是我冲彼。皆为冲起。
I am Zi
and the other is Wu, Zi can counter Wu, denotes I
clash the other. Denotes clashing arises.
任氏曰：
Ren comment:
支中逢冲，固非美事，然八字缺陷者多，停匀者少。
Clashes between EB, is not a
good thing, eventhough there are many
defective/flawed Bazi, very few well balanced Bazi chart.
木火旺，金水必乏矣；
When wood and fire is
prosperous, the metal and water will diminish;
金水旺，木火必乏矣。
When metal and water is
prosperous, the wood and fire will diminish.
若旺而有余者冲去之，衰而不足者会助之为美。
If the prosperous and surplus is
clashed away or the weak and insuffivent is assited, it is considered wonderful.
如四柱无冲会之神，得岁运暗来冲会尤为喜也。
If the clash is not in the natal
chart, meeting hidden clashes during LP or AP is a good thing.
盖有病得良剂以生也。
When the illness received a good
dosage of medicine it can recover.
然冲有彼我之分，会有去来之理。
There is a difference between me
clashing others and others clashing me, also whether it is clashing in or
clashing out.
彼我者，不必分年时为彼，日月为我，亦不必分四柱为我，岁运为彼也，总之喜神是我，忌神为彼可也。
Me and others, not
differentiated by the Year and Hour as others, Day and Month as Me, or the
natal chart as Me, the LP and Ap as others. It should
be favorable gods as Me, unfavorable gods as others.
如喜神是午，逢子冲，是彼冲我，喜与寅戌会为吉；
Example favorable god is Wu,
being clashed by Zi, considered others clashing Me, it is auspicious to have a Yin Xu
Seasonal combination to assist;
喜神是子逢午冲，是我冲彼，忌寅与戌会为凶。
Favorable god
represent Zi being clashed by Wu, represent Me
clashing others, inauspicious to have Yin Xu Seasonal
combination to assist.
如喜神是子，有申得辰会而来之为吉；
If the favorable god is Zi, with Shen obtaining Chen
forming seasonal combination is auspicious;
喜神是亥，有未得卯会而去之则凶。
If favorable god is Hai, obataining Wei and Mao combinaing away is inauspicious.
宁可我去冲彼，不可彼来冲我。
It is acceptable for me to clash
others, but not for others to clash me.
我去冲彼，谓之冲起；
I clash other, considered
clashes arises;
彼来冲我，谓之不起。
Others clashing me, considered
not arise.
水火之冲会如此，余可类推。
The clashes of
fire and water is as such, others to use same reasoning.
旺者冲衰衰者拔，衰神冲旺旺神发
Prosperous clashes with the
weak, the weak will be pulled out,
Weak clashes with the
prosperous, the prosperous will become stronger.
原注：子旺午衰，冲则午拔不能立；子衰午旺，冲则午发而为福。余仿此。
Original text:
Zi prosperous an Wu weak, due to the
clash the Wu is not able to withstand;
Zi weak and Wu prosperous, due to the clash the Wu will become
even more prosperous which is auspicious. Applies to other
similar analogy.
任氏曰：十二支相冲，各支中所藏互相冲克，在原局为明冲，在岁运为暗冲。
Ren comment: the clashes between the 12 EB, the clashes in the
Hidden Heavenly Stem. When it is in the original natal chart, it is considered
as open clashes. When it happens between the Luck Period or
the Annual Pillar, it is considered as hidden clash.
得令者冲衰则拔，失时者冲旺无伤。
The element in season clashing
the weaker element will withdraw, the element not in
season clashing the prosperous will not create any damage.
冲之者有力，则能去之，去凶神则利，去吉神则不利；
The one clashing with power,
able to destroy, destroying unfavorable god is auspicious, destroying favorable
god is inauspicious.
冲之者无力，则反激之，激凶神则为祸，激吉神虽不为祸，亦不能获福也。
When the one clashing is weak, but
due to it aggravating the unfavorable god, it can create misfortune, when aggravating
a favorable god will be create misfortune but will also not be harvesting any
fortune.
如日主是午，或喜神是午，支中有寅卯巳未戌之类，遇子冲谓衰神冲旺，无伤；
Example for Wu fire DM, or the
favorable god is Wu fire, in the EB there is either Yin, Mao, Si, Wei, Xu, (which are supportive of the fire element), Zi clashing the Wu is considered as weak clashing
prosperous, no injury;
日主午，或喜神是午，支中有申酉亥子丑辰之类，遇子冲，谓旺者冲衰则拔。余支皆然。
DM Wu fire,
or Wu fire as favorable god, in the EB there is either Shen,
You, Hai, Zi, (weakening
the fire element), Zi clashing the Wu is considered
as proeperous clashing the weak, destroying the fire
element. The rest to analyse using
the same logic.
然以子、卯、午、酉、寅、申、巳、亥八支为重，辰、戌、丑、未较轻。
Also t consider that the Zi, Wu, Mao, You, Yin, Shen, Si, Hai clash are strong, Chen, Xu,
Chou, Wei clash are weak.
如子午冲，子中癸水冲午中丁火，如午旺提纲，四柱无金而有木，则午能冲子；
Example, Zi
clashing with Wu fire, inside the Zi, the Gui clashing the Ding inside the
Wu, when the Wu fire is prosperous and in command, without metal in the chart but with wood support, the Wu can clash the Zi.
卯酉冲，酉中辛金，冲卯中乙木，如卯旺提纲，四柱有火而无土，则卯亦能冲酉；
Mao clashing with You, the Xin inside the You
clashing with the Yi wood inside the Mao, when the Mao is prosperous and in
command, with fire in the natal chart without earth support, the Mao can clash
the You;
寅申冲，寅中甲木丙火，被申中庚金壬水所克，然寅旺提纲，四柱有火，则寅亦能冲申矣；
Yin wood clashing Shen, the Jia wood and Bing fire
inside Yin wood being countered by the Geng and Ren inside the Shen, when the Yin
is prosperous and in command, with fire in the natal chart, the Yin can clash
the Shen;
巳亥冲，巳中丙火戊土，被亥中甲木壬水所克，然巳旺提纲，四柱有木，则巳亦能冲亥矣。
Si Hai
clash, the Bing fire and Wu earth inside Si being countered by the Jia and Ren inside Yin wood, when
Si is prosperous and in command, with wood support in the natal chart, the Si
can clash the hai;
必先察其衰旺，四柱有无解救，或抑冲，或助泄，观其大势，究其喜忌，则吉凶自验矣。
Must first analyze the strength
of the elements involved, further checking for support in the natal chart,
whether supporting the clash, or helping to reduce, consider the overall picture,
checking the favorable or unfavorable situation, to be able to deduce if it is
auspicious or inauspicious.
至于四库兄弟之冲，其蓄藏之物，看其四柱干支，有无引出。
For clashes among the brothers of the four storage, the hidden elements involved, by
checking the four pillars, to know if the elements involved becomes active.
如四柱之干支，无所引出，及司令之神，又不关切，虽冲无害，合而得用亦为喜。
The elements in the natal chart,
without being extracted out, the commanding month officer is not concerned,
being clashed was not damaged, being combined becomes
useful making it auspicious.
原局与岁运皆同此论。
The method of analysis is the
same for natal chart and LP/AP.
