jia-yin day pillar

Yang wood on 寅, the Tiger, repeats its own element, and the first hidden stem of the branch is 甲 again. That Friend comes with 丙, the Eating God, and 戊, Indirect Wealth. Day-count schemes for 寅 shift the proportions, with 三命通會 allowing 甲 twenty days of the month.

One word carries the entry in 三命通會 卷一: 雨也, it is rain. It says this rain likes summer and fire, and the 納音 Water of the Great Stream gives a larger body of water than the falling drops of that image.

Officer, 臨官, is the name for the stage just short of the peak, drawn from a person taking up a post. 甲 stands there at 寅, three steps on from its Growth at 亥.
