In the study of Chinese astrology, "Shen Wang Wu Yi" (身旺无依) is a complex concept that involves an individual's wealth and success in life. This article will delve into the different patterns of "Shen Wang Wu Yi" and how they affect a person's fate. By analyzing special patterns such as "Jian Lu Bu Fu" (建禄不富), we will reveal the different manifestations of wealth and career for individuals with strong "Shen" (身).

Interpretation of "Jian Lu Bu Fu" in Destiny

"Jian Lu Bu Fu" is a special pattern in the theory of the eight characters, referring to a situation where the master of the chart has a "Jian Lu" (建禄) in the month, sits on a place of "Chang Sheng" (长生), and has a "Yang Jian" (羊刃) in the hour. Although a strong "Shen" usually means there is potential for wealth, if the "Cai Xing" (财星) is weak and is taken by "Bi Jian" (比肩) or "Jie Cai" (劫财), the master of the chart may find it difficult to accumulate wealth, which is why this is called "Jian Lu Bu Fu." In this pattern, the strength of the "Cai Xing" does not match the strength of the master of the chart, resulting in the master having a "Jian Lu" but no wealth to gain.

The Relationship Between "Jian Lu Bu Fu" and Wealth

Wan Mingying believes that the month is the source of the great luck, symbolizing the family or hometown. When the master of the chart enters the great luck, meaning leaving the hometown to start a business, the family's property (ancestral assets) remains in the month, but may be taken by "Bi Jian" or "Jie Cai," leading to the master of the chart experiencing "Jian Lu Bu Fu." If the great luck also encounters "Bi Jian" or "Jie Cai," the master of the chart may suffer a second loss of property, making the situation even more severe.

Conditions for Great Wealth from "Jian Lu"

Although "Jian Lu Bu Fu" emphasizes the situation of brothers taking away wealth, if the master of the chart has strong "Cai" in other stems and branches, it can form a situation of "Shen Wang Cai Wang" (身旺财旺), meaning the individual has strong ability and opportunities to become wealthy, thus easily achieving great wealth. In practical experience of fortune-telling, people with strong "Shen" and strong "Cai" often have better wealth than others, and their wealth can multiply when the right great luck or year arrives.

Distinguishing "Shen Wang Wu Yi" from "Jian Lu Bu Fu"

"Shen Wang Wu Yi" refers to a situation where the master of the chart is extremely strong and powerful, but there are no "Guan Sha" (官杀) or "Cai Xing" (财星) available as resources in the four pillars, or although they exist, they are not strong. This leads to the master of the chart being able to control the "Cai" and "Guan," making it difficult to achieve wealth and status. "Jian Lu Bu Fu" mainly involves the situation of "Bi Jian" and "Jie Cai" taking away wealth in the month, while "Shen Wang Wu Yi" results from excessive strength causing a lack of support from "Cai" and "Guan." The two have different influences, but individuals with strong "Shen" always have the opportunity to seize wealth, which is better than those with weak "Shen."

Through an in-depth analysis of the patterns of "Shen Wang Wu Yi" and "Jian Lu Bu Fu," we can understand that even though individuals with strong "Shen" may face challenges in wealth under certain conditions, they still have advantages in wealth and career. Individuals with the "Jian Lu" pattern can still become very wealthy if they are not "Shen Wang Wu Yi," and can even achieve wealth and status. Therefore, "Jian Lu Bu Fu" is a concept with certain conditions, while the "Jian Lu" pattern itself is still considered a noble pattern in the eight-character system.
