BaZi Ten Gods lookup: complete Day Master and stem relationship table

A Ten God is a relationship to the day stem, called the Day Master. Select two stems to find its name. This table alone does not determine chart strength, useful elements or outcomes.

First compare elements, then yin and yang

The five relationship groups are peers, output, wealth, officer or killing, and resource: respectively the same element, what the Day Master generates, what it controls, what controls it, and what generates it. Polarity splits each group into two. Jia, Bing, Wu, Geng and Ren are yang; Yi, Ding, Ji, Xin and Gui are yin. Jia Wood generates Bing Fire with the same polarity, giving Eating God; with Ding Fire the polarity differs, giving Hurting Officer. Always read from the Day Master toward the target.

Jia Wood: one element can have two labels

Jia sees Wu Earth as Indirect Wealth and Ji Earth as Direct Wealth. Both are Wood controlling Earth, with different polarity. Geng Metal is Indirect Officer or Seven Killings, whereas Xin Metal is Direct Officer. Seven Killings and Indirect Officer denote the same relationship here. The day stem itself is often displayed as “Day Master” rather than Friend; it is the reference point, not a missing relationship.

For a branch, inspect its hidden stems first

The lookup accepts stems, not branches. Yin branch contains Jia, Bing and Wu: for a Jia Day Master these are Friend, Eating God and Indirect Wealth. A chart that displays only the branch’s principal hidden stem may show one label; a chart listing every hidden stem shows several. Compare matching fields rather than treating the principal label as a complete description of the branch.

Names are neither personality verdicts nor outcome scores

Direct Wealth does not guarantee wealth; Hurting Officer does not guarantee misfortune; Seven Killings is not a moral label. Further interpretation considers season, roots, exposed and hidden stems, strength, interactions and luck cycles. The existence of a relationship and its role in a chart are separate questions. This lookup cannot infer marriage, health, income or occupation from one stem, nor calculate useful elements by simply counting labels.

The reference table follows the chart engine

The 100 results were exported from the Go engine’s baziShiShen function. The browser reads that table instead of maintaining a second calculation algorithm. Tests compare it with the engine’s complete stem-pair baseline. Yuanhai Ziping’s section on taking the day as the reference provides historical terminology; historical interpretation should be distinguished from modern personal decisions.

Work through one relationship

For a Jia Wood Day Master, Bing Fire is produced by Wood. Jia and Bing are both yang, so this is the Eating God relationship. Ding Fire is also produced by Wood but has opposite polarity, so it is Hurting Officer. This is a relationship label, not a conclusion about talent or luck; locate it in your actual pillars and hidden stems next.
