What is Bazi?
Bazi is a system for deciphering destiny.
The system was founded by astrologer
Li Xu Zhong of Tang dynasty. The system
was further developed by Zi Peng (子平)
of Song dynasty. The system is still
in use today. Today's system of bazi
is largely from the work of Zi Peng.
The word bazi, literally means eight
characters in Chinese, is actually
the birth data of a person. A person's
birth data can be expressed in eight
characters using the solar calendar.
Bazi is usually displayed in pillar
(column) form which results in 4 pillars
of characters. As a result, bazi is
also known as 4 Pillar destiny analysis.
Each pillar of a bazi represents the
cosmic energies (qi) of the hour,
day, month and year at the moment
of birth.
The system of bazi has 2 components.
One component is the destiny chart
(命盤)
and the other component is the luck
cycle chart (大運).
The destiny chart is the main component
of a bazi. It shows the 8 characters
of a birth data. It also holds the
secret code to a person's destiny.
By decoding the destiny chart, one
can know what destiny has indicated
in a person's life with regards to
wealth, marriage, talent, power, friendship,
etc. The destiny chart can also reveals
relationship with parents, spouse,
children, etc.
The other component of a bazi is the
luck cycle chart. It shows how a person's
luck changes through time. The luck
cycle chart is a series of 2 Chinese
characters arranged in pillar (column)
form. Each luck pillar represents
the cosmic energies in a 10-year period.
By decoding the luck cycle chart,
one can know the type of luck one
has in each 10-year period. One can
also know whether the 10-year luck
period is a favourable luck period
or an unfavourable luck period.
The fortune of a person is affected
by the destiny chart and the luck
cycle chart. An analogy is a car moving
on the road. The journey of the car
is dependent on the car (the destiny
chart) and the road condition (the
luck cycle chart). The journey is
bumpy if the car is not good or (and)
the road is bumpy. To have a smooth
journey, the car has to be good and
the road also has to be good.
