You become very rich when your Wealth element becomes very strong, well supported, and usable. You become richer when your Wealth element becomes strong, supported, and usable. You become poorer when your Wealth element is suppressed. You become very poor when your Wealth element is severely attacked or damaged.
“Poorer” can mean:
- Income becomes unstable
- Money does not accumulate
- Wealth opportunities appear but cannot be captured
- Effort does not translate into financial results
In BaZi, wealth is not only about how much money exists in the chart — it is about whether the Wealth element is strong, alive, supported, and able to function.
Wealth for a Strong Day Master
For a Strong Day Master, the element that your Day Master controls represents your Wealth. They are:
- Direct Wealth (正财 Zheng Cai – 财) → Stable income, salary, savings, structured wealth
- Indirect Wealth (偏财 Pian Cai – 才) → Business income, investments, opportunities, side income
Wealth for a Weak Day Master
For a Weak Day Master, the element that is the same as your Day Master becomes your Wealth. They are:
- Friend (比肩 Bi Jian – 比) → Shared resources, partnerships, equal-level opportunities
- Rob Wealth (劫财 Jie Cai – 劫) → Competitive wealth, fast money, but unstable if excessive

A Poorer BaZi in 2026
Male born 12 July 1995
Year: 乙亥 (Yi Hai – Wood Pig)
Month: 庚辰 (Geng Chen – Metal Dragon)
Day: 癸酉 (Gui You – Water Rooster)
Hour: 戊午 (Wu Wu – Earth Horse, 11:30 AM)
This is also a Strong 癸 Gui Water Day Master.

2017 丁丑 (Ding Chou) Luck Pillar and a Poorer 2026 丙午 (Bing Wu) Year
Same 2017 丁丑 (Ding Chou) DaYun, 丁 Fire (Indirect Wealth) is revealed. This activates wealth potential and increases financial drive.
2026 is the 丙午 Fire Horse year.
On the surface, 2026 again appears rich:
- 丙 → Direct Wealth
- 午 → Contains strong Fire (Indirect Wealth)
But here is the difference. The hour pillar changes the internal structure.
Here
- Wealth is being clashed
- Key supporting structures are suppressed
- Internal element conflict hurts the wealth foundation
The result:
- Wealth appears but is unstable
- Opportunities come with pressure
- Harder effort required to make the same money
- Income may increase briefly but leak away
From the surface, 2026 looks rich. In reality, wealth is suppressed and damaged. He is not richer. In fact, financially it feels tighter and more stressful.
The Real Lesson
Same birthday.
Different hour.
Completely different 2026 outcome.
BaZi is never about just seeing wealth appear.
It is about whether the structure can hold it.
In 2026, the Fire Horse year will magnify wealth themes.
But only charts with stable wealth structure will truly benefit.
Wealth must be:
- Supported
- Rooted
- Not clashed
- Not suppressed
Otherwise, money comes… and goes.
