In the vast cosmos of classical Chinese astrology, *Qian Li Ming Gao* (《千里命稿》) shines as a beacon, illuminating the most overlooked corner of a woman's Bazi chart—the activation and transformation of the Wealth Star. Many female entrepreneurs experience repeated failures, partner betrayals, and stagnant business landscapes, not due to a lack of ability, but because of a fundamental misreading of the "Useful God" (用神) in their charts. The Wealth Star, in a woman's chart, is not just a symbol of money; it is the core pivot that transforms personal energy into social value. How can one start from zero and activate the explosive potential within their chart? The "Qu Yong Da Fa" (取用大法) from *Qian Li Ming Gao* provides a systematic answer.
1. The Triple Code of the Wealth Star: Dynamic Balance of Generation, Control, and Harmony
The Wealth Star in a woman's Bazi chart does not exist in isolation. According to *Qian Li Ming Gao*, the strength of the Wealth Star and its relationship with the Daymaster (日元, representing the self) determine the efficiency of its energy transformation. Specifically, the relationship between the Wealth Star and the Daymaster can be categorized into three states:
- Generative Wealth: The Wealth Star generates the Daymaster, symbolizing that external resources (such as investments or partners) can empower the individual. However, if the Wealth Star is too strong, it may lead to dependency and a lack of independent decision-making.
- Controlling Wealth: The Daymaster controls the Wealth Star, indicating strong personal capability. However, excessive control may result in resource loss (e.g., partner betrayal or investment failure), which can be mitigated through the "Resource Star" (印星).
- Harmonious Wealth: The Wealth Star forms a harmonious combination with the Daymaster, signifying high synergy between resources and personal ability. However, if the combination is too tight, it may lead to hidden conflicts (e.g., partners appearing cooperative but secretly competing).
Take the case of the Purple Micro Chart-1985-5-12 (female) as an example (View Related Case). In her chart, the Wealth Star is strong, but the Daymaster is weak, leading to an overabundance of "Generative Wealth." While partners brought resources, they also took away decision-making power. By adjusting the chart (e.g., wearing water-element accessories), the Resource Star was activated to balance the Wealth Star, ultimately achieving a shift from "passive acceptance" to "active control."
2. Qu Yong Da Fa: A Four-Step Path to Activating the Wealth Star
The "Qu Yong Da Fa" proposed in *Qian Li Ming Gao* focuses on systematically activating the Wealth Star through four steps: "Support and Restrain," "Mediate," "Adjust," and "Leverage Luck." Here is the specific operational path:
- Support and Restrain: Based on the strength of the Daymaster, decide whether to "support" or "restrain" the Wealth Star. If the Daymaster is weak, use the Resource Star to restrain the Wealth Star; if the Daymaster is strong, use the Output Stars (食伤) to drain the Wealth Star and avoid excessive resource concentration.
- Mediate: Resolve conflicts between the Wealth Star and unfavorable elements (e.g., Power Stars like the Direct Officer or Seven Killings) through "mediating gods" (e.g., Collaborators or Competitors). For example, if the Wealth Star conflicts with the Seven Killings, use the Collaborator to mediate, transforming "competitors" into "partners."
- Adjust: Adjust the balance of the Five Elements in the chart through environmental factors (e.g., residence Feng Shui), diet (e.g., Five Grains), or even clothing (e.g., color choices). For instance, if the Wealth Star is Wood, use "Fire" (e.g., red decorations) to activate the Wealth Star's growth potential.
- Leverage Luck: Combine major luck cycles and annual luck to launch significant projects during years when the Wealth Star is strong (e.g., during the Wealth Star's "Lin Guan" or "Di Wang" phases). For example, in 2024 (Year of Jia Chen), the Wood Wealth Star is in power, making it an ideal time for entrepreneurship or investment.
Consider the case of the Purple Micro Chart-1978-3-28 (female) (View Related Case). In her chart, the Wealth Star is strong but suppressed by the Power Stars, leading to repeated setbacks in entrepreneurship. By employing the "Mediate" strategy (introducing a Collaborator partner) and launching a project in 2023 (Year of Gui Mao, when the Wood Wealth Star was strong), she ultimately achieved explosive growth.
3. The Chart-Based Root of Partner Betrayal: Hidden Conflicts Between Wealth and Power Stars
Partner betrayal is one of the most common pain points for female entrepreneurs. According to *Qian Li Ming Gao*, the root cause of this phenomenon lies in the conflict between the Wealth Star and Power Stars (representing authority and control). Specifically, this manifests in three ways:
- Wealth Star Generates Power Stars: An overly strong Wealth Star empowers the Power Stars, leading to the partner (Power Star) gaining excessive authority and eventually turning against the individual (e.g., seizing equity).
- Power Stars Control Wealth Star: Overly strong Power Stars suppress the Wealth Star, leading the partner (Power Star) to "control" resources (e.g., funds, channels) and restrict personal development.
- Wealth Star and Power Stars Form a Combination: Superficially harmonious but secretly competitive. For example, if the Wealth Star and Power Stars form a "Wealth-Power Combination," the partner may appear cooperative but actually control resources through "collaboration."
The solution lies in "transforming Power Stars into Useful Gods." For example, introduce the Resource Star (e.g., a mentor or advisor) to resolve the Power Stars' suppression of the Wealth Star, or use the Output Stars to drain the Wealth Star and prevent it from empowering the Power Stars. Take the case of the Purple Micro Chart-1990-7-15 (female) (View Related Case). In her chart, the Wealth Star empowered the Power Stars, leading to repeated betrayals by partners. By introducing a Resource Star (mentor) to resolve the Power Stars and using Output Stars to drain the Wealth Star, she ultimately rebuilt her partnership.
4. Breaking the Business Deadlock: From "Zero-Sum Game" to "Symbiotic Ecosystem"
The stagnation of a business landscape often stems from a limited understanding of the Wealth Star. Traditional astrology views the Wealth Star as "personal wealth," while *Qian Li Ming Gao* proposes a new perspective: "The Wealth Star is social value." Specifically, the path to breaking the business deadlock includes:
- Redefine the Wealth Star: The Wealth Star is not just about money; it represents the ability to transform personal energy into social value. For example, a Wood Wealth Star is suited for green industries, while a Fire Wealth Star is ideal for creative and cultural fields.
- Build a "Wealth Star Ecosystem": Create a symbiotic ecosystem through the "Wealth Star generating Useful Gods" model. For instance, if the Wealth Star generates the Output Stars (creativity), it can create a "content e-commerce" model; if it generates Power Stars (authority), it can build a "platform economy" model.
- Leverage "External Responses": Harness environmental factors (e.g., city Feng Shui), networks (e.g., benefactors), or even era trends (e.g., major luck cycles) to gain support. For example, in 2025 (Year of Yi Si), the Fire Wealth Star is in power, making it an ideal time to invest in cultural and creative industries.
Consider the case of the Purple Micro Chart-1982-11-3 (female) (View Related Case). In her chart, the Wealth Star is Water, but the Daymaster is Fire, leading to "Wealth Star controlling the Daymaster" and a stagnant business landscape. By redefining the Wealth Star (Water as "liquid assets") and building a "Wealth Star generating Output Stars" ecosystem (e.g., investing in fintech), she ultimately transformed from a "zero-sum game" to a "symbiotic ecosystem."
5. Practical Guide: Three Steps to Activate Your Wealth Star's Breakout Point
How can the theories of *Qian Li Ming Gao* be applied in practice? Here is a three-step guide:
- Step 1: Diagnose the Wealth Star's State
- Examine the Wealth Star's position in the chart (Year, Month, Day, or Hour Pillar) and its relationship with the Daymaster (generation, control, or harmony).
- Combine major luck cycles and annual luck to determine the Wealth Star's current state (e.g., Lin Guan, Di Wang, Shuai, Bing, Si).
- Refer to the "Wealth Star Useful God Table" in *Qian Li Ming Gao* to identify the Wealth Star's Useful God (e.g., Resource Star, Output Stars, Collaborator).
- Step 2: Adjust the Chart's Balance
- Use "Adjustment" tools (e.g., Five Elements accessories, living environment) to balance the Five Elements in the chart.
- Apply "Mediate" strategies (e.g., introducing partners or advisors) to resolve conflicts between the Wealth Star and unfavorable elements.
- Use "Leverage Luck" strategies (e.g., launching projects in years when the Wealth Star is strong) to amplify the Wealth Star's energy.
- Step 3: Build a Business Ecosystem
- Based on the Wealth Star's attributes, choose a matching business model (e.g., Wood Wealth Star for green industries, Fire Wealth Star for cultural and creative fields).
- Build a symbiotic ecosystem through the "Wealth Star generating Useful Gods" model (e.g., content e-commerce, platform economy).
- Combine era trends (e.g., major luck cycles) to choose the best entry point (e.g., 2024, the Year of Jia Chen, when the Wood Wealth Star is in power, is ideal for entrepreneurship).
Take the case of the Purple Micro Chart-1995-9-18 (female) (View Related Case). In her chart, the Wealth Star is Metal, but the Daymaster is Wood, leading to "Wealth Star controlling the Daymaster." By adjusting the chart (wearing Fire-element accessories), activating the Resource Star to resolve the Wealth Star, and launching a project in 2023 (Year of Gui Mao, when the Wood Wealth Star was strong), she ultimately achieved explosive growth.
6. Conclusion: From "Destined Fate" to "Fate by Design"
The "Qu Yong Da Fa" from *Qian Li Ming Gao* is not just a set of astrological techniques; it is an upgrade in cognitive framework. It tells us that the Wealth Star is not a shackle of fate but the key to transforming personal energy into social value. Through the systematic steps of "Support and Restrain," "Mediate," "Adjust," and "Leverage Luck," every woman can start from zero, activate the explosive potential within her chart, and ultimately achieve a leap from "destined fate" to "fate by design."
As *Qian Li Ming Gao* states: "Fate is not predetermined; it is what we make of it." When you truly understand and activate your Wealth Star, the deadlock of business landscapes will no longer exist, and the shadow of partner betrayal will fade away. Only by mastering this key can you navigate the vast ocean of entrepreneurship, break through the waves, and reach the other shore.
