Is the wealth luck of a Geng day master good?

No fortune verdicts here. The checkable structure: what Geng (Metal) controls is its wealth, sitting at Yin and Mao (1 Direct, 1 Indirect); the output branches that feed it sit at Zi and Hai; the Lu post at Shen.

Direct vs indirect wealth — what is the difference?

The classical reading: Direct Wealth is regular income (stable, rule-bound), Indirect Wealth is flowing income (enterprise, opportunity). Which branch counts as which follows from the ten-god verdict on each branch's main qi — the twelve-row table lists them all.

What does output generates wealth mean?

Output (Food God / Hurting Officer) is what the day master produces; wealth is what it controls. The classical chain of output generating wealth says production precedes income — this page marks both groups so the intake and the outlet of the chain can both be checked.

Do many wealth branches mean richness?

No. The count is a structural fact; whether the day master can carry that wealth depends on its strength and the whole configuration — "much wealth, weak self" is the classical counterexample. Counts are checkable; conclusions are not offered.

The wealth axis of the Geng day master

This page breaks "wealth for a Geng day master" into checkable structural signals: the wealth branches (what the day master controls, Direct and Indirect distinguished), the output branches (the source that feeds wealth), Lu (the salary post), the wealth carriage and the fortune star. How many branches, of which kind — computed. No fortune verdict is offered; the closing note explains why.

Computed facts (engine-verified)

This page is generated from the engine v0.14.0; every signal follows conventions R32/R33 on the methodology page and can be reconciled item by item.

A note on what this page deliberately does not do: the popular versions of this material assign a fixed personality to each term — one character per branch, one destiny per stage. This site rejects that framing. What is published here is a structural position: which element sits where, on what kind of ground, with which tenants inside. The same term reads differently under a different month command, and no meaningful judgement exists without the other characters of the chart. Where the tradition offers a reading it is labelled as the tradition's; this site's own contribution is that every number and term on this page is computed, versioned and checkable against the methodology page.
