Is Ba Zi A Fortune Telling Tool?
Thursday, December 11, 2008Often Ba Zi is associated with Fortune Telling. This is not truly so. Ba Zi is just a tool to help you have a better understanding of yourself, possibilities and any external forces affecting you. It does indicate what might happen. It is base on deduction. For example, base on the Ba Zi of person A, he is a short-tempered person; he would not have a good relationship with others. It is logical to conclude that, because if the person is short-tempered and if he chooses not to control his temper, this would lead to a lot of argument and fighting with his spouse and family members thus causing heartache and heartbreak.
Ba Zi does not predict your future. It acts like a counselor, a consultant that helps and guides you in making better decision and on improving your life.
Ba Zi is like DNA. Unique for everyone. From your birth date, a few simple codes are combining together to form hundreds and thousands of possibly combinations. Each set of combination help us to understand more on a person's personality traits, character, behavior and life path he tends to choose.
But twins have the same birth date but different personality, different life style your might ask. That is true, but there is this big X factor. For Ba Zi, the time of birth is group under the 2 hourly periods. But the environment is every changing every miniatures and seconds. Thus the influence on each individual twin at that particular time is different.
You might ask, since Ba Zi tells one's life path then a person is fated? Yes and no. Ba Zi is not some magical formula. It is like a map that just show you what lies along the road. Which path you choose, how and what you are going to do to reach your destination depend largely on yourself. You have 100% control of your life. For example, if you think "My life is destined, what is the point of putting in effort?" Then YES, I would say that your Ba Zi tell your fortune. But on the other hand, If you think "Base on my Ba Zi, there seem to be a lot of obstacle, I should be more aware of my action and thoughts. Maybe I should enroll more courses or upgrade my knowledge in regards to my career." Then NO, you are not "fated".
Ba Zi is just a tool to help you derive some information of yourself. It tells you the person personality, characteristic, talent and relationship with other, the ability to accumulate and manage wealth. It indicates certain outcome from certain action in life. For example how one's live on life would determine one's wellbeing, both mentally and physically. How action, judgment and communication with the people around will affect the relationship with families, friends, colleague. How a person perception and capabilities is affect the career. How's a person treat life.
