Happy New Year 2015

Happy New Year.

There are some free updates planning for 2 applications, mainly 64 Hexagrams Qi Men Dun Jia and Zi Wei Flying Stars.  I have skipped the Winter Solstice release to improve the User Interface of the app.

The new feature allows San Yuan Date Selection filtering by house.  Previously the filtering is day master concentric, meaning you can only filter dates by owner's birth date before house sitting.  Now you are able to filter dates by house sitting before owner's birth date.




In addition, I added tool tips for the 9 Palaces Qi Men Dun Jia formations for the English speaking community.

At the first glance, you will know that 玉女守门 is known as 'Jade Daughter at the gate'.  In addition, I fixed the UI bug for the Flying Palace feature in this release.

To make life difficult for the rest, I have added 4 different methods of plotting hour school 9 Palaces Qi Men Dun Jia in this release 8)

Serious Qi Men Dun Jia fans should be familiar and understand both Zhi Lun 直润 or Chai Bu拆补 methods to determine the Ju.

It is easier to implement Chai Bu拆补 then Zhi Lun 直润 in computer code. 


In addition, most Zhi Run users hail from the Taiwanese group, a historical baggage from the 1949 Chinese Civil War. 

If you have any enquiries about the software, the retail price is SGD520.00 for this software that implements, at least 3 date selection systems, in a single app. 


Contact zwdsflying@yahoo.com for retail or academy enquires.

San Fang function added to Si Hua Zi Wei software

I have just release the update for the Si Hua Zi Wei application.

The new time saving feature is called San Fang.



I provided a screen capture of how San Fang will be displayed and this layout has flexibility compared to the traditional format.

It allows you to set the San Fang in any palace.

English Zi Wei Si Hua course in Singapore

If you are utterly confused by all the Hua Ji, Hua Lu lines criss-crossing across a Si Hua chart, you are probably not alone. 

I will strongly recommend Master Lilian Heng's Flying Stars Si Hua English course as it is carefully calibrated to guide a newbie into the interesting domain of Si Hua Zi Wei Duo Shu.

In addition, the instructor has good experience from reading charts at a professional level and is very keen in metaphysics.

Hence her course is the unique synthesis of practical experience and theoretical Zi Wei concepts.  There will be useful discussions on problems and resolution from the Si Hua perspective. 

Highly recommended course if you are in sunny Singapore!  The basic course starts this weekend.



Optional Si Hua Zi Wei bilingual software in action for fast and efficient charting analysis!!

Update for Qi Men Dun Jia software

The latest changes introduces Zhi Run 直闰 method of Ju determination. 

Intercalation, if you prefer.

As usual, online, I will refrain from commenting which method, Chai Bu or Zhi Run is better, but we can have a private discussion if you happen to bump into me.

In addition, the printing has been enhanced, you can now see all the inauspicious and auspicious formations in the relevant sectors in a nice report, in Chinese and English text.



From the report, we know 5AM, in the wee hours of the early morning will be a dodgy time.

The translation, well they still send some cold shivers down a language purist's spine.

Da Liu Ren heaven and general plates added to San Yuan Qi Men Dun Jia application

I have added the Liu Ren heaven and 12 generals plate to my application for reference.

Liu Ren, as in many metaphysical systems have cliques and factions.

However the Liu Ren school is more cordial, at least that's what I see so far, lesser mudslinging and flaming. 

There are two methods to plot the 12 Generals chart, frankly, it is just a simple flipping of the day and dawn nobleman.

 
 
Once I am satisfied with this feature, it will be included in the Equinox/Solstice updates.

You may ask, is this a gimmick?

No.  Given a choice, most developers will not add new features for free, I need to read tomes of archaic text to understand the nuances and the field application portion is even more tricky.  Field application is important, you can sieve out the gems from the garbage heap.

If you do date selection for a while, you will understand the rationale why Brother Keong burnt midnight candles to implement this feature rather than take a nap in the beach.

All July 2014 sales proceeds to the charity!

After 12 full moons, I am very grateful to supporters of my metaphysics applications for Windows.

All July 2014 sales proceeds goes to Singapore's Children Society. 

Email orders or intention of purchase prior to this date defaults to earlier pre-agreed pricing.


Zi Wei Flying Stars - SGD$220.00

1. This app has a competent lunar calendar system from 1901-2100 AD.  You have the ability to see and plot Si Hua and Zi Hua interactions on the fly with natal, decade and annual plates in one screen!
2. Lunar to solar calendar converter for case studies without solar calendar birth dates.



BaziApp! SGD$200.00

Most BaZi apps on the market simply plot pretty colourful charts, but BaziApp goes one step further, it is able to determine chart strength with good accuracy and shows all relevant combinations and clashes in English or Chinese shorthand!  In addition, the decade and annual pillars are shown conveniently in one screen.  Decade and annual with pillars are shaded to highlight the favourable and challenging phases.

Below is an example of the late Master Xu Lewu's chart using English shorthand.  It showcases the ganzhi calendaring capabilities of this application as he is born in the late 1880s.



9 Palaces Qi Men Dun Jia - SGD200.00

This unique application supports Zhi Run 直闰 or Chai Bu 拆补 Ju determination with a calendar range from 1900-2100.  I have painstakingly literally translate some terminologies and formations used in Qi Men Dun Jia into English text, and yes, the translation still gives me and some language purists, heartaches.




64 Hexagrams Qi Men Dun Jia - SGD$580.00 SGD$600.00
This started off as a humble Xuan Kong Da Gua DOS mode application before it went through a massive overhaul, well, I use this application extensively 8).  This is the present incarnation with the Windows UI.  It is quite a complex San Yuan date selection program because it integrates Xuan Kong Da Gua with 64 Hexagrams Qi Men Dun Jia and 9 Palace Qi Men Dun Jia.



This is a picture taken from a 10" Windows 8.x tablet running BaziApp.


Kindly send an email to zwdsflying@yahoo.com for product enquiries, we ship the software to overseas customers!

Inter-palatial relationships among Zi Wei's aspects

For Si Hua Flying Stars Zi Wei beginners, inter-palatial or palace rotation is indeed a tricky item.

Hence for beginners, I have added a palace rotation feature to assist them to visualize the concept of palace rotation, translation, transformation or whichever term that is in the favour of the month.

First we set the Spouse or Shen palace to be the point of reference and select 'Set this palace to be Taiji Self'




In the example below, Natal spouse aspect is the reference point for the rotation.  Hence we can easily infer from the screen capture below that aspect wealth is the spouse of spouse.

San Yuan Qi Men's Xuan Kong software's Da Gua 生入克入 applets

I was looking through my older Xuan Kong Da Gua application print outs. 

I saw that the old 生入克入 function that was removed in the old versions but re-introduced for practical completeness.

This is an example of Shen Ru Ke Ru or 生入克入, literally 'produce/birth and dominate inward'.  It was popularized by the late Master Chen Peisheng in the 1990s, so this 'open secret' is actually 20 years old. 

It is a clever variation of matching a house sitting and individual with the date time structure.  However, there are key subtle differences and caveats in the actual applications of this formation.

In the example, we can see the Xuan Kong gua qi confirms to the Shen Ru Ke Ru/生入克入 formation and it has the same affinity with the house sitting and user's birth year tai sui gua

As this is not a leisure magazine application, a forward lookup list for the next 365 days from the selected date time is provided for further analysis.



Now for some capitalist advertisement, enquires for this program are welcomed via email zwdsflying@yahoo.com

If you into the 'Big 3 of Chinese Metaphysics', Bazi and Si Hua Zi Wei Flying Stars or even Qi Men Dun Jia, please consider my applications as they are designed for the serious CM fan.

Gentle reminder that San Yuan Qi Men Dun Jia app supports both Zhi Run/直闰 and Chai Bu 拆补

Sometimes I do get a query, 'gee your Qi Men plate is wrong based on my mainland's software. 

This is mainly due to the difference in Ju implementation.  Different Ju number will give you a different plate for certain times.

As a gentle reminder, the 64 Hexagrams Qi Men Dun Jia application supports both Zhi Run/直闰 (Imperial Qi Men) and Chai Bu 拆补.  Generally speaking, the mainland Qi Men Dun Jia applications supports Chai Bu 拆补

To raise the ante, this application supports the Rotating and Flying Palace variants.


 
 

Many (not all) or generally PRC Qi Men Dun Jia masters are fans of the late Master Zhang Zhichun.  Naturally his fans or supporters will adopt Chai Bu and disregard the 'Zhi Lun' 直闰 method.

The majority of Taiwanese, Hong Kong and some Singapore die hard blokes, usually adopt the older Zhi Lun method to determine the Ju.

In the past, I used to state my preference and inevitably it ends up with a laborious 30-60 minutes explanation of the Zhi Lun method ....because I read in dismay when over zealous Chai Bu fans thrashed Zhi Lun using a few paragraphs from Master Zhang's book.  However they are usually at a loss if you ask them to provide an explanation or define Zhi Lun

Please try to understand the concepts behind Zhi Lun before thrashing it, you will never know when it will come back to help you or haunt you.

Now much older and wanting only to devote more energies to improve the various apps, I will not state my support for either camps, but the 64 Hexagrams Qi Men Dun Jia defaults to Zhi Lun method.

I will advise that discretion is exercised when determining the correct Ju method for certain applications.

Major update for San Yuan Qi Men Dun Jia application released

Major update for the San Yuan Qi Men Dun Jia or 64 Hexagrams Qi Men Dun Jia date selection application/software has been released.

For existing customers, an email containing update instructions will be sent to you.



This unique application integrates 3 interesting formulations.

1. Xuan Kong Da Gua date selection
2. 64 Hexagrams Early Heaven Qi Men Dun Jia
3. 9 Palaces Qi Men Dun Jia

I have feedback that this is a rather complex application and there are few blokes who understand the 3 systems. 

But on the flip side, it has some time saving features. 

If you are unable to use a certain date time using Da Gua or early heaven Qi Men, there is always the trusty 9 Palace Qi Men Dun Jia. 

Interesting Xuan Kong Da Gua formations are listed.  The 9 Palace Qi Men Dun Jia hourly charts have a palace ranking option to filter a long list of useful formations.

Some users are bemused to find the support for both 'Imperial' aka intercalary '直闰' and non intercalary '拆补' methods.  Most existing Qi Men applications support the latter '拆补' as the programming is much simpler and the theoretical explanation is more straightforward e.g. under 15 minutes.  In fact both Flying Palace and Rotating Palace methods are supported too!

Product enquiries?  Please contact zwdsflying@yahoo.com

This application is designed to meet and exceed specifications of comparable titles in the market.

And lastly, support coyrighted software and avoid using pirated applications 8)

The unfriendly clashes of stems

I saw this accident on the road, it looks pretty bad but fortunately there are no fatal casualties.



"What will date selection say?"

So I fire up my trusty Qi Men Dun Jia application, once again, it is our naughty 五不遇 or hour stem dominate the day stem.


If you are a Bazi fan or date selection bloke, you will have more things to say about the heaven stems but that will be a topic for another day.

五不遇 is one of the top bogeyman in Qi Men Dun Jia, together with '天网四张', if you read the older text, the ancients have plenty to say about them.  The importance attached to them is usually one section (2-3 paragraphs), going by the concise nature of Chinese text, one section is significant.  You can read my other sections that talks about 天网四张.

Most modern Qi Men authors downplay the significance of this formation, but I think otherwise, in date selection, the hour and day stem clashes do appear as a footnote, it cannot be mentioned as a joke or trivial event, hence in date selection, attention to such details is important, especially for sensitive or critical events.

After many years, I begin to notice a strange pattern,  many accidents or unfortunately events will pick the bad hours and if your birth chart has a strange affinity with the date time, you certainly want to pay more attention to your environment.

Zi Wei software on a Windows tablet!

I often have questions, does the Si Hua Zi Wei app runs on Android.

Unfortunately no.  The Android development system is one of the most horrible on Planet Earth today, the SDK perpetually has a beta and unpolished feel.

Back to the apps, both the Bazi and Zi Wei software works perfectly on Windows tablets and its touched enabled.

This is a screen capture on the Asus ME400C tablet. 



This is a screen shot of the Bazi software in action with artificial intelligence to guess the chart type/strength.

 

Application of standard Qi Men Dun Jia software

This is the standard 9 palaces Qi Men Dun Jia chart for 30th Mar 2014, 1500 hours.

From the primary Qi Men or Xuan Kong Da Gua perspective, there are many clever arguments in using this hour.  If you look carefully from Qi Men Dun Jia e.g. time stem's aspect, the timing is not considered ideal.  The real utility at south west portends ill for general matters, favors hunting or arresting criminals.

For Xuan Kong Da Gua date selection perspective, it has failed one key test even if you have a nice name for the date time.

If you have x-ray eyes, or some basic Bazi, or date selection knowledge, you will think twice using this date and time.

How to run the updates or installer in Windows 8!?

Windows 8 has defensive mechanisms to prevent you from running the third party application installers or updated binaries.

For example, after you unzip the installer or updates, you will see the following screen.  Simply click More Info to bring up more options.



Now you have the option to run the installer or update binaries for the applications!



Happy charting!

Interesting application of Si Hua Zi Wei


Well this is an interesting and straightforward chart, are you able to see a tough obstacle for this bloke?

There will be a formal weekend class this Saturday.
Fifth Intake - Sat 22 Mar 2014 & Sun 23 Mar 2014
Time: 9am to 6pm Total 8 lessons S$480/-

Now the reason for the hour stem in north west sector is accounted for ....

Earlier on the March 8, I plot a Qi Men chart for the MH370 scenario, concentrating on the concept if something bad happens, there will usually be a inauspicious scenario in the chart.

I was able to account for the bad hour when the plane was 'deliberately' taken off the radar and plane be under the water.

There was something noted but I thought it was a mistake and did not highlight it.

If you analyse the chart carefully in my earlier post, the time stem was in North West.

At the time of plotting, I thought, "Impossible, plane was flying north east from Kuala Lumpur to Beijing and it lost contact at Gulf of Thailand, north east from KL airport, how on earth can north west be related to anything?! 


So I ignore the north west clue and concentrate on the bad timing and descent into the ocean instead of a inland clash.

Today, the US and Malaysian authorities are backing a strong case that the plane was 'hijacked' and it flew across the Straits of Malacca to the Indian Ocean.


That will put it at north west, hence fitting the chart nicely.

Sometimes when you try to outsmart a chart, they always come back and give you a nice kick in the butt for dismissing a good hint. 

A good kick, a good lesson.

Anyway, I reproduce the chart once again for readers' convenience.

Qi Men Dun Jia's 天网四张 (Heavenly Nets)

天网四张 is indeed a strange formation and most knowledgeable Qi Men Dun Jia blokes will avoid it like a plague and defer big decisions or events a few hours thereafter.
 
Any decent Qi Men text will mention 天网四张 and common sense will tell you that if there are other unsavory elements, that hour should be avoided.
 
Example:
 
MH370 disappeared from Malaysian radar at 1:30 a.m on 8th Mar 2014.
 
 
Hour stem in a palace with many inauspicious elements, including 天网四张, Geng+Gui aka 小格 . 

Note that the Ba Men or Eight Doors are in their original locations and it is known as 'Fu Yin' 八门伏呤. 

Plane has probably crashed into the seas.

Shorthand used in Bazi software

In the globalized world, it is impossible to exclude non-mandarin speaking metaphysics fans. 

A liberal dose of shorthand is necessary to see all the natal, current date time pillars, decade and annual pillars in one screen.



So I have taken the liberty to introduce some shorthand for the elemental combinations and it is clearly documented in the user guide.

The cryptic text '6C Hr = ' is trying to say the following

6 combinations with hour branch but not transformed to wood!

The app has clearly shown the half combination between the Yin (Tiger) and Hai (Pig) branch.

Mth ½C Yr = Fire

The above notation says month branch half combines year branch transform to fire successfully because there is a tick ''.

Well it certainly beats using kludges like 'yang fire, yin earth'.

Interchangeable data format for BaziApp and Zi Wei Si Hua app

The latest updates for Zi Wei Si Hua and BaziApp give each application the ability to share data files.

With the Zi Wei app, you can read BaziApp data file and vice versa, this saves you from retyping all the users' data for each app.

I used the same theme and buttons to minimize learning curve for both apps.

Why share data?

Some things are easier in Bazi or Zi Wei, it is using the most efficient tool and building on the strengths and complementing each systems.  So do not be dogmatic and claim one is better than the other.  Adopt an open mind and keep learning as there at least 250,000 charts from each system.

Opps I need to remove the 'Demo Edition' label for the Zi Wei app 8)

 

Thursday, February 20, 2014

More updates for BaziApp software

Today I added the following features today for the BaziApp for more efficient Bazi analysis.  The update's details has been posted via mailing list to those who recently purchase the app.
 
1. Ability to see previous and next Jie Qi for date of birth
2. Age is shown for all annual pillars
3. Color tone differences for yang/yin elements in natal and current date time pillars
4. Resolve UI/screen problems identified in patch 1.140219
 
Screen capture below has more information. 
 
Please take note that the annual pillars' colors e.g. purple, green and black present a generic analysis of the auspiciousness

Please delve deeper into the chart using combinations/clashes to gain deeper understanding of the decade, annual and monthly pillars.

Some random thoughts in Qi Men Dun Jia

Qi Men Dun Jia, as its ambigous name suggests, has numerous interpretations.

Some blokes conclude the Qi refers to the 3 important trinity stems 'San Qi' (Yi, Bing, Ding) that are as important as the Doors aka 'Men'. There is the usual group that simply conclude the Qi Men refers to the 'Mysterious Doors' and hence attention should only be centered on the doors' plate.

The second part of 'Dun Jia' refers to the 'Hidden Jia' that is assigned as the Leader of the Heaven Stems in this context.  Since Jia is the leader and the other 9 stems represent the human-human aspects, the central theory is to investigate how Jia will be affected by the various interactions in the Qi Men plate.  By superimposing the fortunes of Jia based on how the various stems, doors, 9 stars and 8 deities influence it, most Qi Men exponent will be able to peek into the insights provided by a Qi Men chart.

Despite the numerous debates, many modern practitioners have cleverly extended the application of Qi Men Dun Jia into new fields with mixed results and often with matching steep fees.

The basic principle is simple, applying Qi Men Dun Jia theories improve one's chances realizing a outcome from a fluid and delicate situation. 

The Hour School appears to be the most popular as 1080 charts seems to be a good representation of daily events as compared to the highly generic nature of the year, month and day charts. 

While the Hour School is united in promoting their 1080 charts over the day, month and year school, they recently has fought among themselves over the different methods in the following matters.....

1. Imperial vs Non Imperial 
The old debate between Zhi Run vs Chai Bu Ju determination. Each faction has credible defence and counter points but sadly there are very few studies in any books other than the lengthy theoretical debates.

2. Rotating vs Flying School
Less bad blood between these two groups because the Flying School is less visible and the Rotating School always almost enjoys disproportionately media and books exposure. 

Example of a Rotating School Hour Qi Men Dun Jia chart.



However do not be fooled by the 1080 charts, if one considers the interactions among the entities within a palace, interaction among the palaces, the level complexity will greatly increase. Therefore Qi Men, while is rather versatile, is primarily used as a date selection system. This system hence complement the missing 'remedy' aspects from other life destiny techniques. 

For example, in Bazi and Zi Wei, the secret sauce are usually missing to resolve a particular problem and the standard practice is to use other geomancy methods to address the problem at hand. With the application of Qi Men Dun Jia theories for delicate situations, the window of opportunity has been widen as nearest best hour can be used and the location can be selected to break a delicate deadlock.

There are numerous ingenious methods promoted by many schools recently but the standard practice is to use the following points;

1. Good doors 
2. Good stems
3. Good auxiliary entities, 9 Stars, 8 Deities.
4. Context palace that has good doors and stems do not clash with each other (each palace has a elemental aspects that is similar to the stems and doors).
5. Day master stem or Tai Sui (birth year stem) is aided by earlier entities discussed .

The Sum of All May Make Sense - Just That You Need To Work Harder

I have a funny idea.

Bazi for general luck or destiny for the day master.



Zoom in to specific event, try Si Hua with some San He stars in action!


Do not neglect our trusty friend the standard 9 Palaces Qi Men Dun Jia!


What do we get?  A massive headache!

Tuesday, February 11, 2014

Bilingual Bazi software launched!


Computer assisted chart strength classification with manual chart selection for easier events verification!

The software may have indicated the interactions and highlighted the favourable and challenging years, human ingenuity is still required to interpret the chart carefully.

Decades with black fonts do not necessary indicate all doom and gloom. 

Similarly refrain from jumping in joy if you see purple fonts for the decade or annual stem and branch, an in-depth analysis, taking into consideration, the interactions from the annual years, months pillars may be required.


English text and shorthand for non-mandarin literate users. 

The individual years for a decade are highlighted purple, black and green! 

Competent Bazi analysts with proper training will understand the implications beyond the color coding by studying the combinations and clashes in the chart.


RRP SGD$190.00 for general public and part of proceeds goes to charity.  Email zwdsflying@yahoo.com for details.

You could learn Bazi, old school way, pick up your friends' birth charts and start analyzing.

Or attend formal courses.

If you are in Singapore, you can easily locate English Bazi classes around the city area.    SOCM has a good Bazi courseFor the latest updated schedule, please refer to the URL below.

2. Natal pillar interactions clearly shown e.g. combinations, clashes, penalties
2. Chart classification engine to determine favourable and unfavourable elements
3. Manual chart type selection
4. Color coding to highlight smooth, challenging and delicate years

Happy Lunar New Year and Release Candidate 1 for Bazi software

Happy Lunar New Year to everyone!

Li Chun at Lunar New Year?
Well, please take note that the year of the Horse (Jia Wu ) starts on Li Chun, 4th Feb 2014, 6:04 Singapore time.

The Basics - Favourable and Unfavourable elements in Bazi
The favourable and unfavourable years are the basics for any Bazi analysis.  Unfortunately given the proliferation of leisure magazine Bazi courses, there are writers who proposed discarding the notion of favourable and unfavourable elements since they conclude chart classification is an art?! 

Sidestepping a difficult problem?
Using seasons to classify the chart or heck, just forget about chart strength??  The latter is a worse approach.  It merely sidesteps the problem but the older experienced Bazi hands take this basic step very seriously and are able to determine chart classification accurately.  Hence if your instructor cannot teach you the basic art of chart classification or the practical tricks to break the deadlock for delicate case, then it is advisable to seek another avenue.

Fuzzy logic in action
By first inspection, you will think this is a strong chart but once the combinations are taken into consideration, the picture has changed.



Turning off fuzzy logic chart classification
Therefore if you verify that the chart is indeed a weak chart, then the Bazi software is able to modify the chart classification and the unfavourable and favourable decades are updated instantly based on the following legend.

Purple=generally good.
Green=neutral.
Black=challenging.

The luck pillars are not absolute.  So do not get too happy or sad if you see the purple or black pillars.  They are subjected to the present annual,month pillars and some say day and hour pillars.

With the loose threads settled for the annual pillars, the Bazi application is ready as Release Candidate 1

It will be good if started all these projects 7 years earlier.

I will like to thank the beta testers for their assistance and feedback.
