Bath
A chart describes tendencies in a traditional system. It cannot decide health, money, law, marriage or children.
In the classical sources
五曰沐浴，又曰败，以万物始生，形体柔脆，易为所损，如人生后三日以沐浴之，几至困绝也
Fifth is Bath, also called Defeat. When things first come to life their bodies are soft and frail and easily harmed, as a person bathed three days after birth is brought almost to the point of giving out.
三命通會 卷二
About this stage
Washing a three-day-old is the picture, and 三命提要 treats it as a dangerous moment, the new body being so frail that the first bath nearly finishes it. Its other name is 败, defeat or spoiling, and 神峰通考 uses that short name in its tables. The position comes right after birth, and it falls at 子 for 甲 and 卯 for 丙.
The reading that follows is about delicacy at a beginning. 三命通會 sorts 败 among four stages it calls the four dislikes, then immediately says the sorting is only a rough guide. Since 五行大義, centuries older, already names 沐浴 in the same slot, the bath is one of the oldest fixed points in the sequence. Modern popular talk attaches romance and restlessness to this stage, which the passages here do not.
Where this text comes from
The order of the twelve stages follows 五行大義 volume 2 and 三命通會 volume 2 on Wikisource. The calculator uses that order for wood, fire, metal and water. Works disagree about earth.
The English name follows common modern usage. The wording here is our own plain summary.
