A lamp giving its energy to late-summer soil.

Stem Ding (丁) · Branch Goat (未)

Ding (丁) is yin Fire, which the Dichten Sui calls soft within, its inner nature bright and harmonious (丁火柔中, 內性昭融), and Wei (未) is the Earth of late summer (季夏). With fire giving rise to earth (火生土), it reads as an Output (leaking) position where yin fire’s energy flows into earth.

How to read this pairing

Jeombaksa reads this as yin fire giving its energy to late-summer soil, fire flowing into earth. This is only the imagery of a two-character pairing; actual tendencies must be read with the other six characters and the season.

What the combination shows

• Soft yin fire (Ding) giving its energy to late-summer soil (Wei earth)
• Fire giving rise to earth (Output/leaking) — inner energy moves to the earth outside
• Unlike Bing-Chen, which gives sunlight to late-spring soil, this is a yin fire (lamp) giving energy to late-summer soil

A note of caution

Within these two characters only Fire and Earth show; the other six characters of the chart may hold other elements. Don’t judge character from the Day Pillar’s two characters alone.

Questions to ask yourself (work · relationships)

Work · When giving energy to earth, by what do you decide where to carry on and where to gather back?

Relationships · By what do you decide how far the energy flowing into earth should reach in a relationship?
