The Eight Character Plotting is a method of deduction based on the Eight Characters, which provides us with a way to understand ourselves and others. In this article, we will look at the basics of the Eight Character Chart and how to interpret the Eight Characters.

Understanding the meaning of the Stems and Branches is fundamental to understanding the Eight Character Chart. Stem and Branch is an ancient astronomical calendar method of timekeeping, with ten heavenly stems and twelve earthly branches. Stem and branch combination of eight words, respectively, on behalf of the birth year, month, day, time. Each stem and branch has its own specific meaning and symbol. For example, A Zi represents yang wood, c time represents wood, and so on.

Before we start interpreting the Eight Characters, we need to understand the basic composition and arrangement of the Eight Characters. The eight characters are made up of four stems and branches: year, month, day, and hour, which represent an individual's destiny, family, and wealth. There is a relationship between the stems and branches, and they constrain and influence each other. By analyzing the combinations and interrelationships of the stems and branches of the Bazi, we can understand a person's endowment, character and destiny.

Interpreting the eight characters requires considering the relationship between the five elements. The five elements include gold, wood, water, fire and earth, and they are mutually reinforcing. For example, gold can restrain wood, wood can restrain earth and so on. By analyzing the relationship between the five elements in the eight characters, one can deduce the balance and imbalance of a person's five elements, and thus understand his or her underlying personality traits and destiny.

The ten Heavenly Stems and twelve Earthly Branches in the 八字排盘 also have the distinction between auspicious and inauspicious attributes. For example, A, C, E, G, G, and N are considered auspicious and can bring good luck and fortune, while B, D, F, H, and K are considered evil and may bring bad luck and disadvantage. Similarly, the Earthly Branches also have differences in auspicious and unfavorable attributes.

When interpreting the Eight Character, you also need to consider the interrelationships between the four Stem Branches of the Year, Month, Day and Hour. For example, the year stem branch represents the individual's personality traits, the month stem branch represents family and relationships, the day stem branch represents the individual's fortune, and the hour stem branch represents career and social skills. By comprehensively analyzing the relationship between these stem branches, a relatively complete reading of the eight characters can be arrived at.

There are a number of other factors that we need to take into account when doing a Bazi reading, such as the Life Palace, the Official Star, the Yin Star, etc. The Life Palace represents the individual's fortune. The Fate Palace represents one's career and wealth, while the Official Star and the Yin Star represent authority and talent respectively. By analyzing these factors together, we can get a fuller picture of a person's destiny and potential.

It should be emphasized that Bazi Charting is only an auxiliary tool to help us understand an individual's character traits and potential destiny, but it is not the only factor that determines destiny. Fate is determined by a combination of factors such as an individual's efforts, choices and environment. Therefore, we should maintain a rational and objective attitude in interpreting the eight characters and not overdo or rely on them.
