In the course of this series, we’ve explored the compounding effect of each of the 10 Day Master’s view of money, we’ve also talked about the role the 10 Gods play in getting wealthy versus staying wealthy.
In Chapter 6, we carry the theme of consistency. Because Tails, You Win! In this post, we are going to look for the Star of Consistency in your Bazi Chart.
Consistency is about how we deal with failure, how we react when things or trades don’t go our way, our ability to take the hits, pick ourselves up, and get going again.
KEY EXCERPTS FROM THE PSYCHOLOGY OF MONEY (CHAPTER 6)
“Good investing is about consistently not screwing up.”
The idea that a few things account for most results is not just true for companies. It’s also an important part of your own behaviour as an investor.
Prior to this sentence, the bulk of the Chapter were examples about how the successful companies around today were the result of a string of ideas that did not work out. The iPhone that is so popular today, is the result of finetuning many versions before they hit on the right one.
As traders or investors, for some strange reason, many of us think that we need to be right 100% of the time. That’s… impossible! If the top traders in the world are right 40% of the time, what makes you think we as retail investors or traders will be right all the time?
Yes, it’s expensive to be wrong as a trader or stock picker. That’s why we have a stringent stop loss! And we do not ever adjust down the stop loss! It’s there to prevent us from taking too big a hit when we are wrong.
When you accept that tails drive everything in business, career, investing, and finance, you realize that it’s normal for lots of things to go wrong, break, fail, and fall.
“If you’re a good stock picker, you’ll be right maybe half the time.”
“If you’re a good business leader, maybe half of your product or strategies will work.”
If you’re a good YouTube content maker, your content may be popular half the time. Not all the ideas will work.
BING FIRE: THE STAR OF CONSISTENCY
Often called the star of Optimism, the Bing Fire is also the star of Consistency.
Natal Charts without the Bing Fire often find it hard to be consistent. It’s fine. Don’t panic if you don’t find it in your Chart. There are other ways.
All I’m saying here is – when you have the Bing Fire in your Chart, it is easier to create some form of consistency in your actions.
Why is that so? The Bing Fire is visualized as the Sun. Literally, the sun that rises every morning and sets every evening. The Sun that seems to move on a predictable path as the Earth orbits around it. It is predictable, and because of that, it represents Predictability and Consistency.
Now of course, to find this element in your Chart, you need to first plot your Chart. Link to the free plotter by the JY Mastery Academy is available at the end of this post.
WHERE IS THE BING FIRE IN YOUR CHART?
The Bing Fire can show up on your Year, Month, Day or Hour. Doesn’t matter whether it shows up on top or at the bottom – as long as it is there.
Bing Fire In The Year Pillar
If the Bing is found in your Year Pillar, you need to network consistently. Because you will likely find inspiration when you are mixing with other people. Because the Year pillar represents your industry, social networks, basically, other people.
And if you have the Bing in the Year Pillar, you really might as well be networking. Because you have high visibility.
Bing Fire in The Month Pillar
If the Bing is found in your Month Pillar which is the pillar for business and career, staying consistent with your big why is important. What is your big why? Why do you want to embark on a certain course? What is the big why behind wanting to be a trader, for example. Don’t lose sight of that key objective, especially when all the unnecessary questions start popping up in your head.
Bing Fire In The Day Pillar
If the Bing Fire is found in your Day Pillar (or if you are a Bing Fire Day Master) this is really easy. The Bing Fire Day Master is the most routine of creatures. Simply, inject that activity into your daily routine.
Bing Fire In The Hour Pillar
If the Bing Fire is in your Hour Pillar, which is the investment and mindset pillar, you need to upskill consistently. Constantly upgrade with new knowledge and insights.
ABSENCE OF BING FIRE IN THE CHART
The Main Qi inside the Snake Branch is the Bing Fire. In other words, the Snake is the embodiment of the Bing Fire.
If you do not have the Bing Fire in your natal chart, you can do one of the following things (by the way, 2025 is the year of the Snake! You get to practice consistency all year long! Fun!):
1. Practice consistency every May. Because May is the Snake month.
2. Practice consistency every Snake day. But to do that, you need to have access to a Tong Shu. For non-practitioners, this is not so easy.
3. The easiest but requires the highest level of commitment. Every day, from 9am to 11am is the Snake hour. If you are up to it, this hour is where you dedicate 2 hours to practice what you want to get good at.
Of course, because this hour corresponds with normal working hours worldwide, best if the skill you are practicing is work-related.
CONCLUSION
Chapter 6, Tails, You Win is talking about how practice makes perfect. The more you do, the more consistently you practice, the better you become at what you want to do.
That’s it. It’s really that simple.
And of course, the willingness to fail, to stumble, to falter, and to pick ourselves up to continue.
