As far as I know, hard life probably has two meanings:
The first meaning: it is the so-called folk hard concept. This hard concept usually contains the following meanings:
1. The vitality is tenacious and often suffers setbacks, but basically it can survive and survive.
2. Having the meaning of "gram" is often lonely, which is not conducive to parents and relatives, so it is often lonely.
A typical example of this explanation is Zhu Yuanzhang. Zhu Yuanzhang's experience before he became emperor was not bumpy, and his family was ruined and his six relatives denied him. Although the road was bumpy, he survived and finally became emperor, but his family failed to touch him. He is really a person who can't stand the cold at the top, which is a typical example of hard fortune telling.
The second meaning: from the perspective of eight characters, if a person's eight-character day is too prosperous, it can be regarded as hard luck. For example, someone belongs to the five elements of wood, and if he hits wood extremely hard, it is a tough guy's character.
The hard life in this sense often has something in common with the first sense, because a person's eight-character daily work is too prosperous, and the other four five elements are bound to be relatively weak, and the relatives represented by these four five elements are often unfavorable, so the hard people in this sense are also easy to be thin with their six relatives (such as weak feelings or where to go). And this kind of hard-working people tend to have strong personality and self-awareness, and most of them are stubborn, while men are prone to male chauvinism, but their life expectancy is generally longer and they are less sick all their lives. We can often see some old people whose sons and daughters are gone, but they still thrive like pine trees in the sunset. In this sense, Bai Jingqi, the hero of the TV series Da Zhai Men, should be regarded as a typical hard worker. He not only lived a rich life, but also lived a long life. He also has a unique personality and temperament, full of heroism and legendary life.
Having said that, many people will naturally ask, is it better to be hard or hard?
It can be clearly answered that hard life is not necessarily bad, but also depends on the specific situation. According to the specific problems of the eight characters, we should analyze them in detail, and we should not generalize them. This is especially true for the second meaning of hard life.
The five elements of daily stem are very prosperous (for convenience, it is assumed that the five elements of daily stem belong to wood), and the other five elements can be valuable if they are properly matched. For example, wood is very prosperous, but fire is revealed in the eight characters, and a little soil (soil represents wealth) has not been mingke. If something goes wrong with the Universiade, it is also good luck; Or the wood is very prosperous, and it is appropriate to use soil gold (soil is wealth, and gold is an official), and then borrowing soil gold is also a fortune. This is bad luck, although the hit is inherently flawed, but luck can make up for it. Just like a ship with poor quality, it just sails on calm water, just like a ship.
Suppose a person with eight characters and five elements is very prosperous, but he is rejected for lack of financial officials or decline or having financial officials. This is called "helpless" in numerology. In this case, if the eight characters can't enter the Twenge, it will make the day dry and prosperous, that is, the prosperity will increase, and the extreme will be reversed. The ancients said that being strong and helpless is the way of monks. Of course, Buddhism and Taoism also have metaphorical and symbolic meanings. Combined with the background of modern society, although you may not be a monk, you will be poor, live long and die alone.
This situation is like a tree, and you want to cut down its wood to make furniture utensils or beams. Wood is not good, such as too soft or scarred, so it is difficult to make useful wood. You said it should be used as firewood, because smoke is too heavy or toxic to be used as fuel. The result is that no one uses it and no one pays attention. On the contrary, this tree is happy and carefree. It is carefree and does not suffer from the pain of axe cutting fire. It has been in the hometown of quietism for a long time. We can say that the life of this tree is also very hard.
