The construction of the moon and day in the divination of the six lines: the power of time

What are monthly and daily construction

Yue Jian and Ri Jian are extremely important concepts in the Six Trigrams, representing the influence of time on the hexagrams.

Monthly construction

Monthly construction refers to the monthly branch of the earth:
-Jianyin in January, Jianmao in February, and Jianchen in March
-Built in April, built in May, built in June
-Jianshen in July, Jianyou in August, Jianxu in September
-Build Hai in October, Zi in November, Chou in December

Daily construction

Daily construction is the earthly branch of the day, following a cycle of sixty acres.

The role of monthly construction

Yue Jian has six functions for the hexagrams and lines, namely "generating, supporting, restraining, releasing, harmonizing, and rushing":
|Function | Meaning | Influence on Yao|
|------|------|------------|
|Birth | Moon Building Five Elements Birth Line | Line Prosperity|
|Fu | Yue Jian Wu Xing Tong Yao | Yao Wang|
|Ke | Moon Building Five Elements Ke Yao | Yao Decline|
|Release | The Five Elements of Yao give birth to the moon and build up | The Decline of Yao|
|Union | Moon Building and Yao Di Zhi Union | Viewing Union|
|Chong | Moon Building and Earthly Branches Chong | Observing Prosperity and Decline|

The role of daily construction

The function of daily construction is similar to that of monthly construction, but the impact of daily construction is more lasting. As the ancient saying goes, "The month governs the current month, and the day governs forever

Judgment of prosperity and decline

To determine the prosperity or decline of a line, it is necessary to comprehensively consider the lunar and daily constructions:
-* * Wang * : Simultaneously supporting both monthly and daily construction
- * Xiang * : To be supported by one of them for a lifetime
- * Rest * : The day of the month, the day of the building, and the city of the building cannot be born
- * Prisoner * : restrained by monthly or daily construction
- * Dead * *: restrained by both Moon and Sun Construction at the same time

Example analysis

Example: In the divination of noon, moon, yin, and sun, look at a certain line as Zi Shui

Analysis:
-The moon builds on the noon fire to overcome the water of the child → The moon builds on the lines, and the lines decay
-Day building Yin wood releases Zi water → Day building releases Yao, Yao decays
-Conclusion: The Zishui line is extremely weak, and the thing represented by this line is unfavorable

Example: Zi Yue Shen Ri Zhan Gua, see a certain line as Zi Shui

Analysis:
-The moon builds and supports the water of the child → The moon builds and supports the lines, and the lines are strong
-Sun Jian Shen Jin Sheng Sheng Shui → Sun Jian Sheng Yao, Yao Wang
-Conclusion: The Zi Shui line is extremely strong, and this line represents good fortune

Precautions

The influence of monthly and daily construction is greater than that of dynamic lines
2. Moon breaking (where the line is crossed by the moon) is more severe than day breaking
3. Monthly and daily combinations can alleviate some of the disadvantages
4. Prosperity and decline are only one aspect of divination, and require comprehensive analysis
