Hello Master Peter,

It is true that if the month and year branch clashes indicated either parents will pass away early ( before 30 years old) or they wil separate? As i have three childen the older and younger child month & year are clashes - xu dog yang earth & chen dragon yang earth but the middle child's month is wei goat yin earth and year is hai pig yin water. I hope i am wrong in this prediction.

It is not very true. The effect  more towards grandparents.

Clashes also means not staying together, study abroad, not having good relationship, and etc and necessary means death.

Clashes also different in strength.  Strong, very strong, weak, very weak, exhuasted etc.
For example if clashes to both stems and branches between 2 pillar - strong.
If the branches happened being combined with others (can be the 8 char, decade or year branch) and transform, the clashes effect being reduced.
 
Ask yourself, it something bad is going to happen, when will it be? So decade and year luck is equally important.
If decade or year do not allow it to happen it will not happen. If decade or year is bad, even without the clashes bad things will still happen.

In short you cannot based on just one clashes to confrm "game over". You have to see the whole picture.


For everyone, at the age of 7, 55, 67 year pillar (stem and branch) clash with the year. Does this means bad for all? 95% of us do not feel the effect.
8 chars if the masterprint and years is the timetable.


The other way is to analyse the parents' bazi.

Peter.
