The Correct Tiande Guiren Table
The Tiande Guiren table is a matching rule between the lunar months and corresponding heavenly stems, similar to a "good star lookup guide." The specific correspondences are as follows:First month (Yin month): Tiande is Ding
Second month (Mao month): Tiande is Shen
Third month (Chen month): Tiande is Ren
Fourth month (Si month): Tiande is Xin
Fifth month (Wu month): Tiande is Gui
Sixth month (Wei month): Tiande is Jia
Seventh month (Shen month): Tiande is Gui
Eighth month (You month): Tiande is Yin
Ninth month (Xu month): Tiande is Bing
Tenth month (Hai month): Tiande is Yi
Eleventh month (Zi month): Tiande is Si
Twelfth month (Chou month): Tiande is Geng
A simple mnemonic is: "First Ding, second Shen, third Ren water, fourth Xin, fifth Gui, sixth Jia, seventh Gui, eighth Yin, ninth Bing hidden, tenth Yi, eleventh Si, twelfth Geng." The core of this table is "finding the heavenly stem by month." For example, if born in the ninth lunar month (Xu month), the presence of Bing in the destiny indicates having Tiande Guiren; if born in the third month (Chen month), the presence of Ren means having Tiande. It's like checking weather patterns by season, or finding the corresponding heavenly stem by month, which allows quick judgment of whether the destiny has Tiande Guiren.
Are the Descendants of Tiande Guiren All Outstanding?
The descendants of Tiande Guiren are not necessarily all outstanding. This statement confuses the relationship between "own good stars" and "descendant luck." Tiande Guiren mainly affects the fortune of the person themselves, reducing misfortune, while the development of descendants depends on their own eight characters, growing environment, and effort, just as the excellence of parents does not guarantee the success of children. The key lies in individual choices and efforts.The indirect influence of Tiande Guiren on descendants is reflected in the "family atmosphere": those with Tiande in their destiny usually have a gentle and upright personality, which may create a more harmonious family environment, allowing descendants to grow up without extreme conflicts and form a stable mindset. However, this is only a "soft environment," like fertile soil that helps seeds grow, but if the seeds themselves are inferior or lack cultivation, they still cannot become tall trees.
If descendants have an ordinary destiny and lack goals, even if their parents have Tiande Guiren, they may still struggle to achieve remarkable success. Conversely, if descendants have a strong and prosperous destiny and work hard, they can still achieve great things even if their parents do not have Tiande Guiren.
Q: How should a leap month be handled when using the Tiande Guiren table?
A: A leap month should be divided according to the solar terms. For example, if the leap fifth month falls after the Grain Buds and before the Slight Heat, it is still considered the fifth month (Wu month), corresponding to Tiande Gui. If it falls after the Slight Heat, it belongs to the sixth month (Wei month), corresponding to Jia. It should be determined by the solar terms rather than the number of lunar months.
Q: How can parents with Tiande Guiren help their descendants grow?
A: They can make use of Tiande's "gentle and tolerant" characteristics to create a regular and harmonious family atmosphere. At the same time, respect the interests of descendants, avoid excessive pressure, and replace forced demands with positive guidance, allowing a good environment to truly become a driving force for growth.
[Conclusion]
The Tiande Guiren table is a "practical tool" for divination, making the identification of good stars simpler. However, the development of descendants ultimately remains the "individual's cultivation." Tiande Guiren can bring smoothness and family warmth, but it cannot replace the efforts of descendants. True "continuation of blessings" is when elders lay the path through character, and descendants move forward through action.
