However, since Kua is based only on the YEAR of birth it does not give the most accurate breakdown of your birth element.Just like if one is born in 2006 (Earth Dog), if you based on the ba zi from the YEAR of birth then you are a Earth element. These is correct, but not the most accurate form of your true element. Depending on which day you are born, you can be a weak water/strong fire etc born in the Earth dog year. So that more exact breakdown of your element based on your day of birth is what we are more interested.Anonymous wrote:However, on the 2nd page, it stated that my Birth element isWeak Metal. So, I am rather confused - what is the difference between the Kua element and the Birth element?This portion of the analysis is the one that consider your day of birth. Therefore, this is the true personal element. In ba zi what we are looking for is the true personal element ie a weak metal person born in say a Earth Dog year. Like I mentioned, Kua number is useful as it gives you information such as 4 good and 4 bad directions, however, it is not the most accurate as it calculated from the YEAR of birth only. However, despite it's simplicity it is still one of the concpet in feng shui. You need to know which concept is important and how to prioritise them.Like I mentioned, there are several ways to determine a person's element, but the best is via the ba zi day's element. This gives the true ba zi element.Hope that helps.Warmest RegardsRobert LeeGEOMANCY.NET - Center for Applied Feng Shui Research
