Chinese Astrology - One Situation, Two Outcomes

In life, when we are confronted with a bad situation, there are actually two outcomes. 

The first outcome is obviously negative since it is a bad situation and we may feel distraught or emotionally affected by it. This is an outcome that is fixed by fate - being at the wrong time and at the wrong place. We cannot undo what has happened to us. 

However, how the second outcome turns out depends on our thoughts, words and actions. It is not fixed. In fact, we can choose the outcome in our favour. This is destiny in the making and we have the power to make the best of the situation. And the power we have is over our emotion. 

Depending on the situation, our emotions can manifest in various forms through our words and actions.   

If it is anger over a misunderstanding, the temperamental type will lash out verbally at people whom they perceive has done them wrong.  The words they use can be hurtful to the other party as they let their emotions overpower them.  They lose their sense of control and as a result, they make the situation worse. Physical altercations can ensure. This is the second outcome and it comes swiftly. 

If it is disappointment over something they failed to achieve, they may be conditioned by their lack of ability and perceive themselves as unworthy and undeserving. Such self-defeating thoughts will break their spirits and make them lose their confidence in whatever they do. If they let such thoughts to spiral out of control, they will be filled with pessimism and have a cynical view of the future.  This is the second outcome and it is slow but insidious. 

Whatever it is, we need to remain calm and be in control of our emotion. A bad situation can only get worse if we let out emotion gets the better of us. A calm state of mind and equanimity will help us to think and act better, thereby making the second outcome a positive one, whether immediately or later.

Be mindful of our thoughts, words and actions as they can create outcomes that can be detrimental to us in any negative situation. The second outcome can be worse than the first if we do not learn to control our emotion and cut our losses. Our emotion is controllable and we must subjugate it to our conscious mind by conscious effort.  This is not easy to do as our emotions are deep-seated within our subconscious mind and waiting to pounce on us whenever it is triggered by any external stimuli. 

Our reactions stem from our emotion which pushes us to say or do things without any thoughts to the consequences. Our subconscious mind is much quicker to react to any given situation compared to our conscious mind. This is because of our emotion. 

The only way we can think faster than our emotion is by knowing consciously that with every situation, there are two outcomes. The first is fate – things happen for a reason and the second is destiny – we can choose our response.  

The Four Pillars of Destiny, a branch of Chinese Astrology, teaches us the difference between fate and destiny.  By choosing our responses based on rational minds, we have the power to decide how the second outcome will turn out in any given situation. To create your own destiny, you should know your useful elements and the useful Gods based on your birth chart. Please visit us at www.bazidestiny.yolasite.com

CHINESE ASTROLOGY AND HEALTH DIAGNOSIS

Do you know that a person’s birth chart can foretell about inherent health issues? In the system of Chinese Metaphysics known as Traditional Chinese Medicines (TCM), the elements and animal signs can diagnose health hazards especially when it is combined with a reading of BaZi (Four Pillars of Destiny). 

In this article, we shall focus on the health aspects of Ba Zi which is derived from a person’s date of birth. Elementally speaking, the BaZi birth chart can tell whether an organ or body part is weak or strong. This is because a Ba Zi birth chart consists of five elements in their Yin and Yang polarity. There are also twelve Animal Signs within the Ba Zi birth chart. Together, the elements and animal signs are located in stems and branches within the four pillars of destiny.

A way to analyse the health aspect of a person is to analyse the BaZi birth chart with emphasis on the strength of the elements and their interaction with one another. The same principle applies to the animal signs. However, the animal signs also carry hidden stems and we need to take that into the overall analysis. 

A Ba Zi birth chart that revealed a weakness in the water element can point to health problem relating to the kidney. A clash of the animal signs between the Rat and Horse in a Ba Zi birth chart can indicate heart ailment. However, it takes advance technique to ascertain if such indications in a BaZi chart will manifests in real health issues. There has to be collaborating factors that combined to give such inferences with due consideration to the person’s lifestyle and luck pillars. If a person is living a healthy lifestyle with proper diet and exercise, it can mitigate the unhealthy factors in the Ba Zi birth chart. An experience astrologer can also support his analysis by physical observation. For example, if he detects a weakness in the heart from the Ba Zi birth chart, he will also look at your face. If it is pale, then it is likely that your heart is weak. 

But there are no certainties that any negative health condition unveiled in the BaZi chart will come to bear on person as his or her luck pillars can also make a difference. Luck pillars are the 10 yearly periods of a person’s life path. If a person is going through a bad luck pillar, it can precipitate in health problem during a particular bad year.

CHINESE ASTROLOGY – IS MARRIAGE LIKELY TO HAPPEN FOR YOU?

In Chinese Astrology, the birth chart of a person allows us to determine the quality of spousal relationship through an intricate destiny analysis. One of the branches of Chinese Astrology known as Four Pillars of Destiny or BaZi can reveal the luck of marriage of a person. 

In Ba Zi, the secret to unveiling the marriage luck is to examine the Spouse palace and the Spouse element. There are five elements and 12 animal signs in a BaZi birth chart. The relationship between the elements and animal signs within the Four Pillars of a BaZi birth chart can tell a lot about a person’s love life and relationship with people.

What happens if you have a negative interaction between the elements or animal signs in a BaZi birth chart? What can you do about it? In Chinese Astrology, it is believed that our luck can be altered by taking an action that pre-empt the likelihood of misfortune in a person’s love life. 

From the ancient Chinese perspective, a prediction from a BaZi analysis is not carved in stone but what we can choose to tweet luck in our favor by marrying or establishing a relationship at the right time. For example if the chart indicate a probable divorce if you marry before the age of 30, then you should marry later to avoid this destiny from becoming true.

However, you need to make sure there is a significant difference in age between two persons who are forming a conjugal union. According to the ancient Chinese, a lack of affinity for marriage can be improved if we challenge the norm. Usually, a man marries a spouse that is a few years younger than him.  

In order to break with the norm or convention and alter the spousal luck, a man should marry a woman who is considerably older than him or much younger than him. The age gap should be greater than 7 years or preferably more. 

Another way of challenging the norm is to ensure a significant difference in status. This is another variation of not following the norm. By this, a man need not be the bread winner or the one with the intellectual prowess or financial wherewithal. For example if the man is poor, the wife can be wealthy or highly educated. On the other hand, if the man is highly educated, the wife should have a lowly education.

For a woman to improve her chance of finding love instead of marriage, she can also be the second One. A BaZi birth chart of a woman with poor marriage luck implies that she will find it difficult to be the first wife or the legally recognized one. The ancient Chinese believe that you can have more success if you take up the role of the second wife, mistress or one that is not legally recognized. 

As for a man, what can he do if his BaZi birth chart revealed poor marriage luck? Going by the same unconventional rule, he can opt to marry a divorcee or a widow! Alternatively, he can also marry someone from a different race or culture. This is yet another variation of not following conventional rule. For example if you are a Caucasian, you can marry a Chinese, Japanese or a person of colored skin.
