The Semiconductor Salesperson Earning Up to Five Million a Year

Ms. X came for a consultation. We talked about her innate gifts, love and work, and then she suddenly changed the subject to her younger sister.

Ms. X said her sister works in semiconductor sales, and since entering the industry has had smooth sailing and great success. Still young, her annual income already reaches up to five million (NT$), very impressive.

Although I don't have her sister's chart, using "borrowing a chart," the signs can still be seen.

Ms. X's sister was born in an 乙丑 year, an Ox. How do we see that she's such a successful salesperson?

  1. For an Ox, the 丑 Palace matters most.
  2. The 丑 Palace holds 武曲 (Wu Qu) and 貪狼 (Tan Lang). As discussed in earlier articles, 貪狼 is the "sales star." 貪狼 is flanked by 化祿 ●. In sales, that's a score of at least 70 to start.
  3. The 丑 Palace's stem 己 makes 武曲 become 化祿 ● and 貪狼 become 化權 □. The sales pattern here jumps straight to 80.
  4. 貪狼 sits with 火星 (Huo Xing). 火星 is a malefic, but it likes meeting 貪狼, forming the "火貪格," a "sudden-fortune pattern." In sales, this pattern can reach 85. It's often found in jobs with sales bonuses. Ms. X's sister has a base salary with sales bonuses on top, so her annual income can reach five million.
  5. 空劫 (Kong Jie) in 丑 add strength. Here 空劫 make sales bonuses come frequently, in considerable amounts. Sales work now scores above 90.
  6. 武曲 and 貪狼 are also flanked by 昌曲 (Chang Qu) and 輔弼 (Fu Bi). Strength on top of strength: sales work scores above 95.
  7. 天機 (Tian Ji) is lord of siblings. This chart is for Ms. X's sister, so we bring in 天機. 天機 in 辰, stem 庚, makes 太陽 (Tai Yang) become 化祿 ● and 武曲 become 化權 □, both helping 武曲 and 貪狼.

The scores above are my own made-up nonsense, but this chart's excellence is built up layer upon layer, and without scores it's hard to convey how wonderful it is.

Conclusion

In times of war, many people forgot their birth dates, but in fact "borrowing a chart" can still convey a whole life vividly. As long as it's a close relative, such as parents, siblings, children or a spouse, the signs can be seen in the chart. For those one step removed, such as grandparents, nephews and nieces, accuracy gradually declines.

The "chart-borrowing method" is Master 紫雲 (Zi Yun)'s "太歲入卦法" (Tai Sui Ru Gua method). Though I dare not say my "borrowing" here is the same as Master Zi Yun's, all methods share the same root; grasp the principles of 入卦 (Ru Gua), and there's always something to read.
