Jia 甲 Wood 遁



In Qi Men Dun Jia, Jia 甲 is also known as the Heavenly Bless 天福,
and the Green Dragon 青龍. In most instances, its presence in a Chart
is considered to be a very auspicious sign that any nagging problems
will soon be solved and the way ahead will be clear. However, when
Jia Wood is presented with Geng 庚 and Xin 辛 stems, the outcome
is likely to be less positive, as the leadership qualities generally 甲
associated with Jia Wood would be thwarted. In such instances, rather Jia

than being able to gain help, it will be difficult to impossible to obtain


any kind of support at all.

This Stem carries connotations of rewards for good deeds, being an


influence for good and offering help to those less fortunate as well as
the capacity to win the support of others and maintain their loyalty.
Jia Wood represents kindness, happiness and auspicious events and it
combines those with qualities of discipline, willpower, fortitude and the
courage to speak out.

This Stem is auspicious when it is timely. If the condition in the Palace is


too prosperous, it denotes a constant traveler with no fixed residence.
