Looking at a person's eight characters means looking at the corresponding heavenly stems and earthly branches, and looking at the five elements means looking at the corresponding attributes of heavenly stems and earthly branches. These are all sexual relationships that can be successfully compared.
Tiangan is divided into A, B, C, D, E, G, Xin, Ren and Gui. The earthly branches are divided into Zi, Ugly, Yin, Mao, Chen, Si, Wu, Wei, Shen, You, Xu and Hai. The eight characters are divided into years, months and days, with years counting from Jiazi year, months counting from Jiayin month and days counting from Jiazi day. When we get to Jiazi, we begin to calculate.
Heavenly stems also represent the five elements, namely, A and B belong to wood, C and D to fire, E to earth, Geng Xin to gold, and African elephants to water. The earthly branches belong to wood, the noon belongs to fire, Shen You belongs to gold, Haizi belongs to water, and the ugliness of Chen Shu does not belong to soil. You can know that you are missing five lines by inferring the eight characters according to the date of birth.
