Pattern Positioning
Yi Qi Zhuan Wang Geju
Yi Qi Zhuan Wang Geju refers to the five one-qi extremes: Qu Zhi (Wood), Yan Shang (Fire), Run Xia (Water), Cong Ge (Metal), and Jia Se (Earth). It requires seasonal alignment and a clean branch structure.
Formation depends on a true combination and purity; opposing rooted elements usually break it.
Formation Conditions
- The day stem matches the dominant element (Jia/Yi wood, Bing/Ding fire, Geng/Xin metal, Ren/Gui water, Wu/Ji earth).
- Seasonal branch matches the dominant element and is in command.
- Branch structure forms the proper combine: Wood (Hai-Mao-Wei or Yin-Mao-Chen), Fire (Yin-Wu-Xu or Si-Wu-Wei), Metal (Si-You-Chou or Shen-You-Xu), Water (Shen-Zi-Chen or Hai-Zi-Chou), Earth (pure Chen-Xu-Chou-Wei).
- Stems show the same element or supportive seals/companions.
- Opposing elements are absent or lack roots; key sets are not clashed.
Common Breakers
- Season does not align with the dominant element.
- Opposing elements appear with roots or form a counter-structure.
- Branch combine is clashed, punished, or broken.
- Mixed elements dilute the one-qi purity.

Reading Boundaries
Reading principle: Purity decides the extreme.
— Mixed elements reduce the one-qi claim.
Practical guardrail: Season locks the pattern.
— Without season, the claim weakens.
Key Checks
- Identify The Type: First decide which element is dominant: Wood, Fire, Metal, Water, or Earth.
- Match The Branch Structure: Check the proper three-harmony or three-assemble set for that element.
- Remove Opposing Roots: Opposing elements that appear with roots or clash the set often break the pattern.
