Numerology, combined with Taoism and Buddhism, is an important part of traditional Chinese culture and can provide people with powerful guidance to help them solve various problems in life. Next, I will talk in detail about how to analyze and adjust your horoscope using numerology, the five elements of Taoism, and Buddhist texts.
- Basis of Numerology: Birth of eight characters
Birth weight is the most basic part of numerology, which calculates a person’s fate through the time of birth (year, month, day, hour), corresponding to the dry sky and the earth branch. The eight characters are composed of four columns, each with two characters, one for the sky and one for the ground, forming the “eight characters”. The elements of heaven and earth are closely related to the five elements (metal, wood, water, fire, and earth), and the combination of different elements will affect people’s character, fate, career, and health.
The analysis of eight characters focuses on the balance of five elements. If one of the five elements is too exuberant or lacking, it will hurt one’s life. For example, people with too much “fire” in the five elements may be irritable and easily argue with others, while people with too weak “water” may be hindered in wealth. By adjusting the five elements, these unfavorable factors can be improved.
Two, the combination of the five elements of Taoism and numerology
The five elements theory is an important thought of Taoism, which emphasizes the relationship between metal, wood, water, fire, and earth. Taoism believes that everything in the universe is composed of the five elements, and people’s fate and fortune can also be balanced through the balance of the five elements. The eight characters of birth reveal the strength of the five elements of a person, the adjustment of the five elements, can affect a person’s life. - Five elements analysis and harmonization
In numerology, if a certain element of the five elements in a person’s eight is too strong or too weak, it needs to be balanced by external means. For example, if a person’s “wood” line is too strong, and the “gold” line is weak, there may be problems in decision-making and execution. At this time, you can supplement the power of gold by wearing metal jewelry, or increase the energy of gold in the feng shui layout, such as the five emperors’ money.
Similarly, if a person’s “fire” in the eight characters is too strong, he may be unstable and short-tempered. In this case, an object with water energy, such as a crystal ball or fish tank, can be placed in the home or office to balance the fire. - Feng Shui layout and tools
Feng shui in Taoism is also one of the important means of regulating the five elements. By adjusting the five elements in your living or working environment, you can help improve your personal fortune. For example, if someone is not in good fortune, you can place an open crystal ball in the wealth position at home (usually located in the southeast corner of the home) to increase the water energy, drive the gold bank, and help improve the wealth.
In addition, Taoist instruments such as the peach wood sword, the eight trigrams mirror, etc., can also be used to balance the five elements of the Qi field, exorcising evil spirits, especially in career, health and other aspects have significant effects. For example, customers who have too much fire in the eight characters can hang a peach wood sword at home to cut off bad anger and enhance gold or water.
Third, the combination of Buddhist scriptures and numerology
The Buddhist scriptures and Buddhist ideas of practice are primarily used to regulate one’s inner mind and outer karma. By reciting scripture or using Buddhist mantras, one can bring personal blessings and dissolve negative energies in one’s life. Buddhism emphasizes karma, therefore, obstacles encountered in numerology can also be improved through practice, virtue accumulation, chanting, and other ways. - Buddhist mantras and blessings
Buddhist mantras are very useful in numerological adjustments, and commonly used Buddhist scriptures include:
- Heart Sutra: It can inspire wisdom and help people find inner peace and strength in the difficult situations of life.
- “Medicine Buddha Mantra” : used to pray for health and eliminate disease, suitable for people who show health problems in the eight characters.
- “Great Auspicious Goddess Mantra” : This mantra is specially used to bless career and feelings, increase blessings, and attract noble people.
If a person’s eight characters show that the “water” line is insufficient, it may encounter obstacles in terms of financial luck. At this time, you can pray for good fortune by reciting the “Great Auspicious Goddess Mantra”, while wearing water energy bracelets, such as blue crystal or jewelry with water properties, to enhance wealth.
- A combination of Buddhist practice and five elements
Buddhist practice focuses on causality and inner practice, complementing the external five Taoism elements. For example, in numerology, if a person’s emotional palace is blocked and it is not easy to find a suitable partner, the five elements can be adjusted, such as arranging powder crystals in the home and cooperating with Buddhist chanting rituals, such as chanting the Heart Sutra or the Great Compassion Mantra of Guanyin Bodhisattva, to eliminate obstacles in feelings and help find the right fate.
Case study: Integrated application of numerology, Taoism, and Buddhism
Case 1: Career advancement
The eight-figure of a career woman shows that her “soil” line is too heavy, suppressing the “gold” line, resulting in frequent obstacles in the work and being unable to smoothly promote. Through the analysis, I suggested that she wear a light of the five emperors’ money to enhance the power of the “gold” line and help promote the official movement. At the same time, her office environment also needs to be adjusted, I put a peach wood sword in her office to drive away evil spirits and enhance her luck.
At the same time, by reciting the Heart Sutra, she made her mind more peaceful and accumulated blessings. After a few months of adjustment, she was successfully promoted to the company and felt the combination of numerology and spiritual power.
Case 2: Health improvement
A middle-aged man’s life chart shows that his “fire” is too exuberant, and his body is easy to get angry and anxious, which affects his health. I placed a crystal ball in his home to enhance his hydrokinetic energy and balance his excessive anger. At the same time, he prayed for health by reciting the “Medicine Master Buddha Mantra” and wore a string of lit play bracelets, combining the five elements of energy to improve his physical and mental health. After a period of rehabilitation, his health improved significantly.
5. Summary
Numerology, combined with the five elements theory of Taoism and the classical wisdom of Buddhism, can provide people with a comprehensive horoscope adjustment plan. Understanding the lack or flourishing of the five elements through the eight-character analysis, balancing the energy of the five elements by using Taoist instruments and feng shui layout, and combining with Buddhist practice and blessing, can help individuals find a better development direction in their career, health, emotions and so on. This combination is not only the essence of traditional culture but also an effective way to find balance and harmony in modern life.
