Resource 《论 印 綬》

所谓印？生我者，即印綬也，

What is Resource? The element which produce/birth the self.

经曰：『有官无印，即非真官；有印无官，反成其福。』

Saying : “With Officer without Resource, not considered as real Officer; With Resource without Officer, will not be fortunate.”

Comment: Officer and Resource are considered as auspicious God. With both of them together, the Officer can produce the Resource while the Resource can protect the Officer against Hurting Officer/Eating God. It is most auspicious to see both in the chart.

何以言之？

Why is that so?

大抵人生得物以相助相生相养，

All living things needs support in order to grow,

使我得万物之见成，岂不妙乎；

For the million things to be created, otherwise how is it possible;

故主人多智虑，兼丰厚。

The DM is considered wise and generous.

Comment: This is referring to a DM with Direct Resource Structure. As compared to say an Indirect Resource Structure who is more cunning and not so straight forward.

盖印綬畏财，主人括囊。

Resource fear Wealth the most denoting the wealth being tied up.

Comment: Resource fear Wealth.

From ZPZQ:

若印轻财重，又无劫财以救，则为贪财破印，贫贱之局也。

However, if the Useful God Resource is light and the Wealth (protrusion) is heavy, in addition without Rob Wealth to control the Wealth (rescue Resource from Wealth).

The Wealth can break the Resource Structure.

Such a Bazi chart belongs to a poor and lowly person.

故四柱中及运行官贵，反成其福，盖官鬼能生我；只畏其财，而财能反伤我。

The reason with Officer in the natal chart going through Officer luck period is considered auspicious. The officer able to support/birth the self; only fear Wealth, which can damage the self.

此印綬之妙者，多是受父母之荫、承父之貲财，见成安享之人；

When Resource is favorable, able to benefit from the parent and inheritance the wealth from the father, with a stable and peaceful life;

Comment: Resource being the useful god also represents being close to parents, able to gain benefit from parent, especially in terms of inheritance.
若又以两三命相併，当以印綬多者为上。

Meeting further in the chart, with numerous Resource considered as upper grade chart.

Comment: This is referring to a Resource Structure which is deemed upper grade when the Resource is numerous/prosperous.
However it is important to differentiate the useful elements for Luck Period when Resource is very heavy. From ZPZQ:

其印绶用官者，官露印重，财运反吉，伤食之方，亦为最利。

For Resource Structure applied with Officer Structure, if Direct Officer protrudes and Resource is heavy, Wealth 10-Year Luck Pillar will instead become favourable.

Hurting Officer or Eating God 10-Year Luck Pillar; also very favourable.

又主一生少病、能饮食。

The DM will be healthy with less illness, able to “eat and drink”.

或若财多乘旺，必多淹留。

Or if with strong wealth in the chart becoming prosperous from Resource, (the wealth) will stay for a long time.

虽喜官鬼，而官鬼多或入格，又不可专以印綬言之。

Even though prefers Officer/7K, but with too many Officers/Ghosts establishing a chart structure, it can’t be decoded as pure Resource.

假如，甲乙日得亥子月生，丙丁日得寅卯月生，戊己日得巳午月生，庚辛日得辰戌丑未月生，壬癸日得申酉月生者是也，其餘以类言之。最怕行印綬死绝之运；或运临死绝，复有物以窃之，即入黄泉，无可疑也。
Like Jia Yi DM born in Hai Zi month, Bing Ding DM born in Yin Mao month, Wu and ji earth born in the Si and Wu month, Geng and Xi born in the Chen and Xu month, Ren and Gui born in the Shen and You month, the rest similarly discussed.

The worst is when the Resource is in the Death and Repose Qi phase; or encountering luck period when the Resource is in the Qi phase of Death and Repose; denoting the person not having any possession when entering the yellow spring (death).

夫印綬者，生我之谓也，亦名生气。

以阳见阴，以阴见阳，谓之正印；

阳见阳，阴见阴，谓之偏印。

喜官星生印，忌财旺破印。

The term “Resource’, the one who birth/produce the self, the name related to “Sheng” growth.

Yang Meeting Yin, Yin meeting Yang, considered as Direct Resource;

Yang Meeting Yang, Yin meeting Yin, considered as Indirect Resource.

Good to have Officer star to birth/produce the Resource, dislike Wealth which cause damage to the Resource.

如甲人生亥子月中，水为印，忌火伤官，忌土破印，要行生旺之乡，怕行死绝之地；若行死绝之地，或有物以伤之，则危矣！

Like Jia DM born in the month of Hai Zi, water as Resource, dislike fire HO, dislike earth to damage the Resource, must be in supportive luck period, afraid to be in the Death and Repose Qi phase period; if during Death Repose Qi phase period, or being damaged (by earth), danger sign.

印綬之人智虑、一生少病、能饱食丰厚、享见成财禄；

若两三命相併，当以印綬多者取之。

People with resource are wise, not often sick for the whole life, able to have the ample and handsome meal. Will be able to enjoy money and good fortune;

When considering other matters, using abundant Resource is still applicable.

最忌财来乘旺，必生淹滞。

It is the most unfavorable when meeting the prosperous wealth, which will result sluggish and "submerge".

若官鬼多，或入别格，又不可专以印綬论。

If the officer and 7 killings is abundant, or the chart is established, it can’t be discussed as pure Resource.

大凡月与时上见者为妙；而月上最为紧要。

It is the best to have Resource in the Month or Hour Pillar; However, it is most important in the Month.

先论月气之后有生气，必得父母之力；

年下有生气，必得祖宗之力；

于时上见之有生气，必得子孙之力，寿元耐久，晚景优游。

With Sheng Qi in the Month Pillar, obtained help from the Parent;

With Sheng Qi in the Year Pillar, obtained help from ancestors.

With Sheng Qi in the Hour Pillar, obtained help from the children, living a long life, having a good life during old age.

*Sheng Qi is growing Qi.

如带印綬，须带官星，谓之官印两全，必为贵命。

若官星虽见成，得父母力，为福亦厚也；

须行官星运便发，或行印綬运亦发。

With Resource in the chart, it is necessary to have Officer star, termed as Officer Resource complete, considered as noble chart.

若用官不显，用印綬为妙；最怕四柱中岁运临财乡，以伤其印。

When the useful god “Officer” is not strong, it is good to use Resource;

The worst is having Wealth in the natal chart or during Wealth luck period which damages the Resource.

若伤印，主破家离祖、出赘；

又临死绝之地，若非降官失职，必夭其寿。

When the Resource is damaged, the family will be destroyed and the DM will leave the house;

Further with Death and Repose luck period, will be demoted or lose the job, will also die prematurely.

如【戊戌，庚申，癸酉，庚申】：

Chart:

此命癸日生于七月中气之后，月时皆是庚申，自坐金库，所以印綬；

岁干又透出戊官，谓之官印两全，极为贵命。

Gui DM born in the 7^th month (after the main Qi), Month and Hour Pillar are both Gen Shen, sitting on metal store, establishing the Resource Structure.

With Wu earth Officer star protruding in the Year Pillar, considered as Officer Resource both complete, a very noble chart.

(Comment: 中气之后 after the middle Qi. In the month of Shen, the HHS are Ji/Wu, Ren and Geng. The Geng HHS is after the middle Qi. Therefore this is referring to the DHHS which is Geng at this time to establish the chart structure.)

如【癸亥，癸亥，甲寅，甲子】：

Chart:

  

此日用癸为印，印却旺；缘无财星相助，发福不厚也。

This chart uses Gui as Resource, the Resource is prosperous; With no Wealth to assist, it is not a good grade chart. Cannot be very rich.

如【甲寅，庚午，戊戌，壬子】：

Chart:

此日戊用丁为印綬，有寅午戌火局为好；

不合时上壬子水旺，财能冲印，所以失明。

生气是丙丁火属木故也。

Wu DM using Ding as the Resource. It is favorable to have Yin Wu Xu fire San He;

Not compatible with the prosperous Ren Zi water in the Hour Pillar, the Wealth is able to clash the Resource. As a result losing the sight. (Blinded)

The Sheng Qi (Resource) is Bing, Ding which is dependent on wood.

如【己卯，丁卯，丙辰，壬辰】：

Chart:

此命用卯为印，用癸为官，年在卯日在辰，所以官印两全，少年清要。

至四十二、三岁，癸亥运亦不妨；

至庚申年，水七杀生于申，乃被庚申破印，故不吉也。

The Resource for this chart is Mao wood, the Officer is Gui water. Mao located in the Year Pillar, Chen located in the Day Pillar, termed Officer Resource both complete. Capable and distinct during young age.

Until the age of 42, 43, during Gui Hai luck period, it is not bad;

During Geng Shen year, water 7K birth in Cheng Sheng Qi phase in Shen, the Geng Shen damaging the Resource, inauspicious.
