In BaZi, we don't simply label a decade or a year as ‘bad’ and assume that everything will go wrong. The Annual Luck must be analysed together with the 10-Year Luck Pillar and the original Four Pillars. When a challenging Annual Luck enters an already difficult 10-Year Luck period, the interactions can intensify certain issues. The purpose of BaZi analysis is not to fear these periods, but to understand them so that you can adjust your decisions, avoid unnecessary risks and make better use of the periods that are more supportive.
Cheers.
