How to choose the supporting element when Bing Fire is born in the month of Zi 

If Bing Fire is born in the month of Zi and the eight characters are strong, the supporting element is Ren Water. If there is a lot of Ren Water in the eight characters, it also needs Wu Earth to assist; if there is no Wu Earth, use Ji Earth to assist.
In "The Treasure Mirror of the Gloom and Brightness," it is recorded: "In the month of Zi, the energy increases by two yangs, and Bing Fire is weak but again strong, so it uses Ren Water, and takes Wu Earth to control it. If there is no Wu Earth, use Ji Earth." Because Bing Fire born in the month of Zi before the Winter Solstice, although one yang returns, it is still weak. Therefore, the four pillars cannot lack Jia Wood to support and nourish it, but also need to have a sibling to assist, making the day's element strong. If Ren Water appears in the birth chart, it must use Wu Earth to control the water. Because Bing Fire born in the month of Zi is too weak, it fears the suppression from Ren Water, and Wu Earth also fears being dimmed. Therefore, the configuration where both Ren and Wu appear must have Jia Wood appearing on the stem to support Bing Fire. If there are many waters and no Wu Earth, Ji Earth can be used to mix the Ren Water, but it must have Jia Wood appearing on the stem, because in the tenth month, the Jia Wood is in its period of strength, and the wood energy is active. Ji Earth mixing Ren Water can make Jia Wood turn weak into strong. However, in the month of Zi, it is even colder, and the wood energy is dormant, so Jia Wood appearing on the stem is necessary to resolve the situation of Ji Earth mixing Ren Water.

Preferences and taboos for Bing Fire born in different months

Bing Fire born in the month of Zi, with a seal to nourish the body, is very auspicious. When the luck enters the southeast, it develops greatly. Going against the direction is difficult to ensure longevity. If Bing Fire meets the month of Chou, look at the abundance of earth, considering it as a伤官 (shangguan). If the seal is abundant, going west is beautiful. If the roots are shallow, going east brings incomplete blessings. When Bing Fire is accompanied by a strong presence of official stars in the month of Yin, it is especially remarkable when the luck moves southward. If the official stars are light, it particularly likes the north. In any case, the major luck should move west. When Bing Fire is born in the month of Mao, if the stem is weak and encounters a favorable place for fire, it is good. If there are no official stars, it is not beneficial, and even if the luck is strong, it remains ordinary. When Bing Fire is born in the month of Chen, with many Wu and Ji, how can it handle the shangguan and fire-earth? If it encounters wealth or seals, it will be smooth. Whether going north or south, it is always average. When Bing Fire has a lucky seat and the stem is strong, encountering official stars and killing stars brings great auspiciousness. Moving forward or backward, it develops well. If it enters the month of Xu, it may face disaster. When Bing Fire is born in the month of Wu, it becomes a shangguan. If there are killing stars, it is considered a noble destiny. It is auspicious when moving through metal and wood. But if it moves through water, it is not happy. When Bing Fire is born in the month of Wei, the shangguan is prominent. The encounter of official stars and killing stars is not special. If it has only one official star, it is considered noble. Moving through the northwest is beneficial. When Bing Fire is born in the month of Shen, the day master is soft. Only when it is followed or transformed does it become excellent. If it follows the water position, it harms the life span. Moving against the southeast brings rich blessings. When Bing Fire is born in the month of You, the fire is weak. If the sibling elements support the body, the lifespan is not extraordinary. Moving against the southeast is losing the fortune, while moving through the water direction is truly auspicious. When Bing Fire is born in the month of Xu, the earth is abundant. Without official stars but with killing stars, it is quite different. If the major luck moves forward, it brings great wealth and honor. If it encounters official stars and killing stars, it is average. When Bing Fire is born in the month of Hai, it is a killing and seal. Clearly, the major luck prefers the southeast. It brings great wealth and honor in middle age. If the luck moves west, the lifespan is not long.
