Compatibility of 丙 with 庚: Yang Fire and Yang Metal

Sunlight flashes off a long steel blade. The sun is Yang Fire; the sword is Yang Metal. Fire works on metal, so the sun tends to shape this partner. For the sun, the sword is Indirect Wealth, the star of excitement and the open hand. The sun often feels adventurous and generous here.

For the sword, the sun is Seven Killings, the star of pressure and challenge. The sword may feel pushed, heated, tested. Steel doesn't like to bend, and quarrels can get hot. Yet that heat can also temper the sword into something stronger. It helps when the sun lowers the heat and asks. And when the sword says plainly where its limits are.

Exciting and testing; lower heat and clear limits make it work.

In a forge, fire turns rough metal into a working blade. The sun is the fire here, and the sword is the metal. For the sun, the sword is Indirect Wealth, the star of openings and practical gains. For the sword, the sun is Seven Killings, the star of hard pressure and demanding push. In plain words: the sun pushes the sword hard, and the sword gets shaped by it, not always willingly.

Nobody likes being hammered all the time. The sword may harden and push back. The sun may not see how hot it runs. Time to cool off between arguments helps. Open credit for the sword's efforts helps it feel valued, not just used.

The sun pushes and the sword gets stronger; cool-down time and open credit keep it fair.

The sun hits a steel blade and makes it flash, but it can't melt it. The mother is the sun and the child is the steel. Fire controls Metal, so she has a strong hand here. For the child, she is the Seven Killings, a demanding, testing force. She often pushes the child to be tough and ready.

For her, the child is Indirect Wealth, a big project she gives to freely. Steel resists, though. The child may push back or shut down under pressure. Both can get hot and hard at once. What helps is choosing a few battles, not all of them. Steady warmth shapes metal better than a blaze.

A strong mother and a tough child; fewer battles and steady warmth work best.

In a forge, fire heats raw metal until it can be shaped. The father works on his daughter much the same way. To her, he is Seven Killings, the star of pressure and hard lessons. He can feel intense.

To him, she is the Indirect Wealth, someone he spoils and gives to freely. The heat can be too much at times. Clear praise between the tough lessons helps her come out strong, not scorched.

He pushes her hard because he cares, and balancing pressure with praise makes it work.

Hot sun beats down on an iron anvil until it's too warm to touch. The mother-in-law is the sun, the daughter-in-law the metal. To the older woman, she is Indirect Wealth, someone to manage and spend on. She may be generous, and she may also take charge.

To the daughter-in-law, the mother-in-law is Seven Killings, the star of strong pressure. Even friendly advice can feel like heat. The younger woman may harden and dig in. What helps is cooler contact: shorter visits, fewer opinions, more asking. The daughter-in-law does well to set a calm, early no.

Generous but heated on one side, tense on the other; cooler contact helps.
