Specifically, eight characters is a method of calculating personal destiny in China's traditional numerology, which transforms the year, month, day and time of birth into heavenly stems and earthly branches respectively, and infers a person's personality, destiny and fortune according to their relationship.
In this issue, "wood" and "fire" are the five elements in the eight characters, representing the positive significance of vitality, warmth and upward development respectively. And "earth" is another of the five elements, representing the significance of stability, pragmatism and hard work.
Therefore, if there are many elements of wood and fire in a person's eight characters, it shows that this person's fate is relatively smooth, with the potential for upward development and positive and enthusiastic personality. And if a person has more eight-character elements, it shows that this person's character is pragmatic and steady, but it may also lack innovation and vitality.
It should be noted that horoscope is only a way to calculate a person's fate, and it can't completely determine a person's fate. Personal destiny is also influenced by many other factors, such as environment, education, hard work and so on. Therefore, we should give full play to our advantages and overcome our shortcomings in our own efforts and practical actions, so as to better realize our life value.
