Ji Earth Day Masters is likely to be flooded by a wave of wealth energy in October 2023. The deluge of Water energies brought about by the Ren Xu month, and added to by the presence of the Gui Mao year, may feel a little overwhelming.
Ji Earth Day Masters may feel like overwhelmed by the sheer deluge of opportunities. In trying to grab every single one, there is a risk that you may make careless mistakes and resort to speculating instead of informed decisions.
But let’s not waste a perfectly good Wealth month!
JI EARTH DAY MASTER: BLENDING EXPERIENCE, CREATIVITY AND PLANNING
For the Ji Earth Day Masters, October 2023 starts by drawing on your leadership journey and the lessons you have learned to date. Think about how these experiences have and can inform your creative approach.
Creativity is the spark that ignites innovation and problem-solving. It is certainly a leadership asset. Leaders who embrace creativity inspire their teams to think outside the box, adapt to changing circumstances and devise ingenious solutions.
With the idea of encouraging creativity within your team, foster a workplace culture that values diversity of thought. Encourage your team members to contribute their creative ideas and perspectives.
And finally, when all the brainstorming is done, your most obvious job is the Direct Wealth on the Heavenly Stems – the planning, the alignment of goals, the resource allocation, the risk mitigation, as well as the measurement and adaptation.
A Bazi forecast for the month of September 2023 will revolve solely around the Xin Metal. The Month Master for September 2023 is the Xin You pillar which is a pure Xin Metal pillar. In essence, this month’s series, is almost akin to suggestions on how to use your Xin Metal.
JI EARTH DAY MASTER: XIN METAL IS REFINEMENT
Let’s talk about the art of being you! You, but perhaps just a tiny shade better? With a pure Eating God pillar coming into your hands, this could be a good time to take you best ideas and polish them up to a shiny sheen. Invest time into fine-tuning your ideas, tidying up the loose ends, or even polishing your sales pitch.
But what if you don’t really have something to sell? Well, perhaps a small investment in personal grooming and overall presentation? Another idea would be to take this opportunity to refine your communication skills by practicing active listening, speaking with clarity and precision, and choosing your words more thoughtfully.
We could also be mindful of your body language and nonverbal cues, as they also play a crucial role in effective communication. By refining how you express yourself, you’ll exude confidence and professionalism in all interactions.
For the Ji Earth Day Master, June 2023 represents a good chance to study and learn from your competitors. After all, with the Wu Earth on the Heavenly Stem of the Wu Wu (戊午) month, your Rob Wealth star, signifying your competitors, are visible. Why not use this opportunity to scope them out?
In the 2023 Gui Mao year, the Ji Earth Day Master sees Indirect Wealth sitting on 7 Killings. Both are expansive energies. Couple that with the Rob Wealth sitting on Indirect Resource in June 2023, Ji Earth Day Masters may feel a little off kilter. In such a situation, studying your competition is a good way to tap into information for your decision-making process.
With your Wu Earth (戊) Rob Wealth on the Heavenly Stems, let’s start with the easy part – the public-facing part of your competition. Analyze their website. Pay attention to their product/service offerings, pricing, unique selling points, and customer testimonials. Understand how they position themselves and what makes them stand out. Examine their social media accounts to gain insights into their engagement strategies, content types, frequency of posting, and audience interactions. Note the platforms they focus on and how they leverage social media to connect with their customers.
Next, let’s work on your Ding Fire (丁) Indirect Resource star. Conduct market research to gather information about your competitors. This can include reading industry reports, news articles, and press releases. Look for information on their market share, growth rate, target audience, recent product launches, partnerships, and any notable achievements or challenges they have faced.
At the same time, explore customer reviews, testimonials, and feedback on platforms like review websites, forums, and social media. Understand what customers appreciate about your competitors and where they might have shortcomings. This can provide valuable insights into areas where you can differentiate yourself and improve.
And finally, your Ji Earth (己) Friend Star. Attend trade shows, conferences, and industry events where your competitors may have a presence. Observe their booths, presentations, and interactions with attendees. This can help you understand their marketing strategies, industry relationships, and the image they project to the public. Connect with professionals in your industry through networking events or online communities. Engage in conversations and ask open-ended questions to gather insights about your competitors. You can also conduct surveys or interviews with your target audience to understand their perceptions of your competitors and what they value most.

The Ji Earth Day Master is one of the Useful Gods in the March 2023 chart. A pure 7 Killings month can herald the arrival of many people coming to you with their problems. An easy way out would be to solve their problems for them, which is a viable strategy. But let’s take this 7 Killings energy a step further. How about we empower people to solve their own problems instead?
Empowering people to solve problems is about helping them develop the skills, knowledge, and confidence they need to take control of their own situations and find their own solutions.
Provide education and training: Provide people with the education and training they need to develop the skills and knowledge required to solve problems. This can include workshops, courses, and mentoring programs.
Encourage creativity: Encourage people to think outside the box and come up with their own unique solutions to problems. Foster a culture of innovation and creativity that rewards new ideas and approaches.
Foster independence: Encourage people to take ownership of their problems and develop their own solutions. Avoid solving problems for them and instead provide guidance and support as they work towards resolving the issue.
Provide resources: Provide people with the resources they need to solve problems, such as access to information, tools, and technology. This can include providing access to experts, providing funding, or providing access to software tools and other resources.
Celebrate success: Celebrate people’s successes when they solve problems on their own. This can include recognizing their achievements publicly, rewarding them for their efforts, or simply acknowledging their hard work and dedication.
Provide ongoing support: Provide ongoing support and feedback to help people continue to develop their problem-solving skills. This can include providing coaching, mentoring, and regular check-ins to see how they’re progressing.
By empowering people to solve problems, you can help them develop the skills and confidence they need to overcome challenges and achieve their goals. It’s easy to solve other people’s problems for them. But that is a short-term solution. When you can empower people to solve their own problems, that is when you reach a higher status as a leader.

The year of the Water Rabbit in 2023 is a year of expansion for the Ji Earth Day Master. Buoyed by two aggressive expansion stars, this is a year where crisis and opportunities are really two sides of the same coin.
WHAT’S GOING ON?
The 2023 Year of the Water Rabbit infuses each of our Bazi Charts with different types of energy. Its arrival, amps up or strengthens different parts of our charts. Think of your Bazi Chart as a reflection of the cosmos. With the arrival of the Gui Mao, certain aspects of your Chart lights up! From there, we can add another layer of strategy to make 2023 a success.
To make this easily applicable, I will share this in the form of keywords. At this juncture, you might ask, what if I don’t intend to follow these strategies? What if I don’t find these keywords applicable to my situation?
The answer: nothing! These keywords represent the broader energies brought to you by the Gui Mao. To use it or not, is your choice!
2023 AND THE JI EARTH DAY MASTER
For the Ji Earth Day Master, the Water Rabbit or Gui Mao, presents as Indirect Wealth sitting on 7 Killings. Admittedly, it will be easier for business owners to use these stars as opposed to career professionals. Because both these stars lean towards aggressive outward expansion.
Therefore, the key words for Indirect Wealth are LEVERAGE or INVESTORS or PROFITS.
The 7 Killings is a very decisive star. Right or wrong, it encourages action making 2023 a year for the Ji Earth to improve on your decision-making skills.
Next, the 7 Killings tears down boundaries. Like the Indirect Wealth, the 7 Killings can also represent expansion by attracting Investors. However, please note that investors will not come knocking on your door step just because 2023 is an Indirect Wealth year for you. You must still take steps to meet, converse, and convince the investors. The action part is on you!
For the career professionals, this may be the year for you to consider getting involved in business development.
Lastly, and perhaps most importantly, 2023 is a year for the Ji Earth Day Master to put into place the right systems, opportunities, and leverage to create long-term sustainability.
Here, I would like to add a caution. Indirect Wealth sitting on 7 Killings can create feelings of greed. The temptation to put all your eggs in a basket for a big, quick, easy win. You need to know this because both these stars are also quite optimistic.
The Ji Earth Day Master in 2023 is buoyed by two aggressive outward expansion stars. But your Bazi Chart only makes up 33% of your life. In the principle of Heaven-Earth-Man, humans still hold 33% of this equation. This is an important reminder for the Ji Earth. This is what has been given to you. Now the ball is in your court!
