LESSON P11 / 14 OF 20
Relationships at different positions
The same Ten God in a different pillar describes a different setting.
Original app lesson · freely available here
The Ten God tells you what the force is. The position tells you where in life it shows up.
Position is setting
A Ten God in the year pillar shows up in family and early life. In the month pillar, at work and in daily settings.
In the Day branch, in intimacy. In the hour pillar, in later life and in private.
One Seven Killings, two lives
Seven Killings in the month pillar: lasting pressure at work; often someone who got there by grinding.
In the Day branch: the pressure comes from the closest relationship. Same name, very different experience.
Reading order
Locate first, name second. Ask which pillar, then what it is to the Day Master, then say it plainly.
Reversing the order turns names into labels stuck everywhere.
Ask which pillar before asking which Ten God. Position decides where the sentence applies.
