According
to the traditional Chinese belief, the moment a person is born determines
the way of life he or she will take. The so called four pillars
represent a person's time of birth, namely the year, month, day
and hour of birth. Four Pillars of Destiny interpret character or
fortune of an individual by the mutual action of the Five Elements
of these pillars.
A year pillar represents the family background in childhood. A month
pillar represents the social life and human relationships in adulthood.
A day pillar represents the married life. And an hour pillar represents
the living environment in later life. For example, Honor> represents
a mother-in-law, loneliness, separation, change of occupation, curiosity
and others. When this Honor> is in a year pillar, we then analyze
that there is no close relation with a real mother, or there is
much change in childhood. Moreover, the Hidden Stem of a month pillar
symbolizes a season, and it also represents the soil at the time
of birth. This Chinese astrology regards this Hidden Stem as the
essence of character or destiny. And the up-down fortune cycles
of every year, month, or day are analyzed by the relation between
each Heavenly Stem and this Hidden Stem of a month pillar.

| My
Method |
|
Only
the month pillar is adopted in my method. This pillar represents
the human relations or social environment in adulthood, and is the
most important pillar also in the traditional Four Pillars of Destiny.
And in my method, the Heavenly Stem and Hidden Stem of this month
pillar are expressed with the words Heaven and Earth. Additionally,
the names of character are expressed with simple words. Heaven represents
a relation with people and occupies about 30% of character. Earth
represents the essence of fortune and occupies about 70% of character.
And the character of Heaven affects that of Earth. For example,
in the case of Expression> and Property>, Expression> produces
Property> and gives power, so it may acquire property with its
talent or sociality. On the contrary, in the case of Self> and
Property>, Self> defeats Property> and takes power, so
it may lose property by self-assertion or egoism. Moreover, in the
case of Property< and Property>, these have the opposite character
such as economy and waste, so it may become unstable in financial
aspects. The relationship between Heaven and Earth either help each
other or are offensive to each other. All this is in consciousness
and it makes human character or fortune various. This interaction
of Heaven and Earth is one of the main themes of my contents.
