Zheng Cai (Direct Wealth)
Definition
Direct Wealth is what the Day Master controls with opposite yin/yang. Examples: Jia day seeing Ji; Yi day seeing Wu. Imagery leans toward recurring, plannable resources and responsibility.
How to identify
I-control + opposite polarity. Month-command Direct Wealth or Wealth close to the Day Master often strengthens “manage and conserve” themes.
Lookup table: Ten Gods Matrix. Overview: Ten Gods.
Common imagery
- Salary, primary-income streams, bookable resource flows.
- Practicality, measurement, sensitivity to value.
- With Resource: Wealth–Resource clash is a common structural tension—look for resolution paths.
- With Officer: Wealth generates Officer—often discussed as career ladders and heavier responsibility.
Boundaries of use
Much Wealth with a weak body: support the body first. Direct Wealth does not guarantee “being rich”—it only names a relation type.
Stem palace (year/month/day/hour), rooting depth, and overlays with Decade Luck and annual pillars all change weight. Never decide from the Ten Gods name alone.
