More about the Spirit of Pleasure and the Injury of an Officer
The other day we had a great conversation at the webinar “How to do good to the spirit of pleasure.” Time flew by somehow, we stayed too long) I would like to say thank you to all the participants in the webinar. For me it also became an interesting experience - it’s useful to look at yourself through the prism of your own structure 
To follow up, I wanted to share a couple more “tricks”. Structures of Self-Expression do not like restrictions and rules; The Officer’s injury is because he knows what’s best, and the Food Spirit is injured because the new rules may prevent him from getting the usual thrill from what is happening. It is difficult for them to discipline themselves, since it is Self-Expression that controls Power, which is responsible for self-control. But, you see, there are situations when you have to follow the rules, change something in your way of life in order to achieve some goal.
What to do in this case? The technique “freedom in small things” helps. The essence of the method is that, when trying on new rules, you follow the main thing, but with a certain degree of freedom treat details that are insignificant for the result and change them “to suit you.”
For example, “Self-Expressor” decided to profess a healthy lifestyle. Nowadays, various groups on social networks are quite common, by joining which you can enlist support, receive tasks and report on the work done. For the structure of Self-Expression, this option is well suited, since it is better for them to use external disciplinary factors (Self-Expression has its own Power). So, having received tasks for the week, having read the list of prohibited items, the Wounded Officer experiences justifiable indignation at the topic of “all this nonsense,” and the Food Spirit is quietly sad about the loss of comfort.
If you immediately dramatically violate the established routine, the resulting negative emotions may outweigh the ideas about the illusory benefits of innovations and the whole idea will fail even before the result can be seen. You'll have to resort to a little deception.
The wounded Officer should be allowed to break the rules a little. But they are secondary, not fundamental, of course. For example, start not on Monday, together with the group, but on Tuesday. Or do something forbidden, but only once. At the same time, repeat to himself that if he wants, he can break other rules. This greatly inspires the self-expressor and gives him the strength to move on. The Spirit of Food must be given the opportunity to maintain the level of pleasure from life that is necessary for him - to leave a couple of bad habits that are so dear to him, eliminating them very gradually, or to assign himself “rewards” for the hardships associated with changing his usual lifestyle. Rewards, of course, should be from a different area - if the Spirit of Pleasure has decided to lose weight, there is no need to promise yourself a cake for a couple of days of abstaining from harmful foods. Give yourself a massage, for example, or something else that you love.
The same technique works very well with children who have a bazi card - the structure of Self-Expression.
Reminder: the Self-Expression structure is formed when the hidden sky trunk (Officer's Wound or Food Spirit) from the month grows into the open sky trunk of the card. Similar character traits can be seen in those for whom self-expression is an integral pillar in the chart.

What books should such a child read?
Or, if he is already an adult, what would be interesting for him to read?
Firstly, the book should have beautiful illustrations so that it is pleasant to pick up and look at. Secondly, these are adventures with an exciting plot, where the hero single-handedly defeats everyone. They will also like it if this hero has fantastic abilities - flying, becoming invisible, being very strong, and so on.
Tips for parents:
- don’t say in an orderly tone what needs to be done, but sit down and calmly
explain. The child will not tolerate any pressure;
— there must be a choice (“Are you going to do your homework now or in 10 minutes?”);
- you need to listen to the child carefully, he loves it very much and will appreciate it;
- after a failure, the child will withdraw into himself and become isolated, so teach him to speak out loud about his problems.

Compilation method
To compile the correct map of Ba Zi, one turns to the “calendar dial” - an image of all the dates of birth along with the year. Then they recognize the hieroglyph corresponding to the person (energy movement). At the intersection of the time and birthday columns, the animal assigned to the person will be indicated. It is worth considering that the time is indicated in Beijing; it is translated into local, taking into account the time zone. After a person has found the necessary cell, he must compare the element and animal to which the individual belongs.
Luck Factors
There are five factors that influence a person's success:
- Fate (Ba Zi).
- Luck (Ba Tzu).
- Feng Shui.
- The level of education.
- Virtues.
Ba Zi Map
The most important factor for the appearance of luck is Fate. According to the ancient followers of Chinese theory, the date and time of birth directly influence the intricacies of future events. A special system developed in the ancient Middle Empire has become an integral part of Feng Shui. It is used for the following purposes:
- Get to know the world around you.
- Determine the possibilities and ways of interaction of a person with the society around him.
- Predict the distant future.
- Improve your financial and social situation.
- Find harmony within yourself.
- To seize the balance between the individual and nature.
This is only a small part of the aspects that the teaching touches on. Unfortunately, the lack of a high-quality translation does not allow foreigners to plunge headlong into the fascinating study of the theory of the wisest inhabitants of Ancient China.
