Legend has it that when King Zhou of Shang began using ivory chopsticks, his uncle Ji Zi was very worried. Ji Zi's concern wasn't just about the chopsticks themselves, but about how a person's pursuit of luxury could lead to ever-growing desires and ultimately a loss of proper respect and restraint. The *Lüshi Chunqiu* (Master Lü's Spring and Autumn Annals), in its chapter on ancient music, also records that the Shang people tamed elephants and used them in warfare. Besides, elephants were also used to aid in production. Whether in war or production, elephants could be helpful, amplifying human power and leading to greater gains. With increased harvests and more abundant resources, people naturally feel satisfied, and the character "豫" (Yu) gradually came to mean harmony and happiness. "豫" can also be related to "余" (Yu). The silk manuscript of "余" helps us understand "豫" from another perspective: surplus, abundance, a state of wealth and affluence. Therefore: Elephant → Utilizing the power of elephants → Increased harvest → Surplus, affluence → Satisfaction, happiness → 豫 (Yu). However, the *Yu* hexagram doesn't stop there with "happiness" and "happiness." While the character "豫" (yù) signifies joy and peace, it doesn't encourage indulging in pleasure alone. Rather, it emphasizes acting in accordance with the times. The core principle is: "Acting in accordance with the times."

An expensive house doesn't necessarily have good feng shui. House prices reflect market value, while feng shui assesses whether the environment and layout are suitable for long-term living. Before buying a house, understand these five things: location, view, layout, family needs, and actual value.

The hexagram Guai (夬) reminds us that it's not always others deliberately making things difficult for you; sometimes it's your own sharpness and bluntness that unknowingly increase obstacles. ✅ Be cautious in speech: Watch your words to avoid causing trouble. ✅ Conceal your sharpness: Don't flaunt your abilities everywhere; excessive rigidity easily attracts resistance. ✅ Be decisive and don't procrastinate: Make decisions when necessary and handle matters promptly.

The Ten Gods in Bazi | Wealth as Benefit: Is the wealth element in your Bazi chart strong? Is it auspicious or inauspicious? The same element, "wealth," can have different meanings in different Bazi charts. True Bazi analysis doesn't just look at whether there is wealth; it returns to the complete birth chart to examine the strength, favorable or unfavorable nature of the wealth element, and its relationship with the overall structure.

A good location selection requires more than just looking at floor plans; it also requires comprehensive analysis of: ⚠️the surrounding environment ⚠️building orientation ⚠️lighting and ventilation ⚠️future development plans ⚠️the impact of surrounding buildings ⚠️the residents' astrological chart, etc. Sometimes, the same apartment type can yield completely different results depending on the floor, the building number, or even different units within the same building.

As the ancients said, "In the art of Feng Shui, obtaining water is paramount, followed by concealing the wind." As my master said, "I've dedicated my entire life to studying Feng Shui." Understanding how wind arrives, how water flows, and how Qi gathers seems simple, but the real key is identifying the core issues. Distinguish between priorities and secondary matters; address the big picture and major problems first, then adjust the details. With the right direction, you can achieve twice the result with half the effort.

Among the ten Heavenly Stems, the Day Master possessing these characteristics is none other than "Gui Water." Water represents wisdom, thoughts, feelings, and imagination. Therefore, people with Gui Water in their Day Master are usually meticulous and easily think about many things. Before even taking action, they have already planned in their minds: what kind of home they want to live in, what kind of life they want to live, and what kind of person they want to become. Having aspirations for the future is a good thing. Because only by seeing the future first can one have the opportunity to move in that direction.

People with the Earth element in their birth chart are capable of bearing all things and are most likely to take others' responsibilities as their own. It's not that they lack ability, but rather that they habitually put others first. In dealing with people and things, they always choose understanding rather than being calculating; they always silently bear burdens rather than shirking them. Over time, constantly accommodating others ultimately leads to their own suffering; suppressing and hiding emotions eventually becomes internal conflict; fearing to refuse others ultimately leads to the loss of their own boundaries; always thinking about accommodating others, but forgetting to accommodate themselves. A truly mature Earth element person doesn't continue to give unconditionally, but learns to treat themselves well while being tolerant of others. The Eight Characters (Ba Zi) not only reveal one's fortune but also one's talents and life lessons.

The Kui hexagram in the *I Ching* speaks of differences and disagreements between people. Many conflicts don't arise because the other person has become worse, but rather because when we discover our differences and flaws, we begin to oppose each other, even completely rejecting the other. However, the Kui hexagram truly teaches us not to reject differences, but to accept "harmony in diversity." People are inherently different, and differences don't signify right or wrong. On the other hand, the Tongren hexagram discusses how to build relationships. True "harmony" doesn't mean demanding others be exactly like us, nor does it mean idealizing them. It means acknowledging shared values while also embracing differences. Yin contains Yang, and Yang contains Yin; those with strengths also have weaknesses; those who have made mistakes may still possess a kind side. Truly mature people don't negate someone entirely because of their flaws, nor do they blindly worship someone because of their strengths. ✅When judging people, look at the whole picture; ✅Leave room for maneuver in relationships. ✅Accept that others have flaws, ✅And remind yourself that you also have flaws. Because none of us are perfect.

The Bing Fire (丙火) is like a bright red sun, not dimmed by abundant Earth but instead becoming benevolent. Abundant Water (水) cannot extinguish it, revealing its integrity and pleasing nature. Refining Geng Fire (庚火) is fraught with danger, as it is easily frightened by ghosts, breaking the mold to create new life and vitality. People with the Bing Fire element tend to be straightforward. They like what they like and dislike what they dislike, usually expressing their emotions and attitudes directly. If they encounter something they dislike, disagree with, or even feel is wrong, they would rather suffer mutual destruction than easily compromise.

The *Di Tian Sui* (滴天髓) discusses Bing Fire (丙火): "In the Tiger, Horse, and Dog regions, Jia Wood (甲木) is burned away." When fire is at its strongest, its aura is powerful and its sharpness is exposed, easily overwhelming others and even harming oneself or others. However, the *Di Tian Sui* also discusses Ding Fire (丁火): "Strong but not fierce, weak but not impoverished." Even when Ding Fire is at its strongest, it does not lose its original gentle nature. It simply becomes warmer, more transparent, and more intelligent.
