Born to be an old maid?
Recently, many women who have never been in a relationship have sought divination from me. I've noticed common characteristics in their Bazi (Eight Characters), leading me to wonder if they are truly destined to be perpetual spinsters.
Firstly, their Bazi lacks the "spouse star" (配偶星), meaning their fate chart lacks the "Zhengguan" (正官) or "Qisha" (七殺) stars. The spouse star usually refers to the element representing a partner. If a Bazi lacks the "Guan" (官) or "Sha" (殺) stars, it may make it harder for women to attract suitable partners emotionally, indicating a naturally weak affinity with the opposite sex. If a woman's Bazi lacks the "Guan-Sha" stars, it will affect their marriage luck. Such women often have lower emotional needs, and those lacking "Guan-Sha" stars may also lack attractiveness in social settings, leading to feelings of loneliness. For example, a woman whose Day Master is Metal and lacks Fire in her Bazi; a woman whose Day Master is Wood and lacks Metal; a woman whose Day Master is Water and lacks Earth; a woman whose Day Master is Fire and lacks Water; or a woman whose Day Master is Earth and lacks Wood.
Of course, if a "Zhengguan" or "Qisha" period occurs during their "Da Yun" (major ten-year cycle) or "Liu Nian" (annual cycle), there won't be a big problem. However, many women with poor marriage prospects may only experience a "Guan-Sha" "Da Yun" after the age of sixty.
Secondly, a weak "Peach Blossom Star" (桃花星) in one's fate also has a significant impact. The "Peach Blossom Star" in Bazi represents one's attractiveness to the opposite sex. If this star is weak in the natal chart, it may mean these women are less likely to be pursued romantically. If a woman's Bazi lacks "Peach Blossom Stars," namely the earthly branches Zi (子), Wu (午), Mao (卯), or You (酉), they typically have fewer opportunities in love and may easily miss out on potential relationships. If a "Red Luan Peach Blossom Star" (紅鸞桃花星) or "Tian Xi Peach Blossom Star" (天喜桃花星) appears during a suitable "Da Yun" or "Liu Nian" for marriage, they should seize the opportunity, otherwise, they may regret it later.
Furthermore, a woman's Bazi being overly strong can also negatively impact her marriage. In today's society, many women have very strong Bazi charts. For example, those with the "Kui Gang" (魁罡) star in their fate, specifically women born on the "Geng Chen" (庚辰), "Geng Xu" (庚戌), "Ren Chen" (壬辰), or "Wu Xu" (戊戌) days, often have stronger personalities and are unwilling to conform to the traditional "men outside, women inside" division of labor in the family, which can affect the development of their marriage.
Women born on "Kui Gang" days are intelligent and decisive with strong personalities. When interacting with partners, they may express their needs too directly, even creating pressure, thereby affecting relationships with potential partners. Their overly strong personalities might make partners uncomfortable, making it difficult to establish long-term stable relationships. Fortunately, in the 21st century, situations where women are stronger than men are not uncommon. "Strong women" can also successfully manage marriages; they just need to find a man who is willing to accommodate them and is more family-oriented.
Society is progressing, and the dynamics between men and women are also changing. People's mindsets cannot always remain in the past; we should strive to adapt and meet the needs of modern society. Regardless of a person's Bazi, the important thing is to find a suitable way of life for oneself. During the Lower Cycle Nine, concepts of marriage are constantly evolving. Being single does not equate to failure, and divorce is not a big deal. The most important thing is for every woman to find true happiness and fulfillment.
