Bazi Essentials - Ren (Yang Water): Who You Are at the Most Fundamental Level (BaZi Essential SET of Ten Day Master)
How Ren are you?
If you're a Ren Water Day Master, you are likely to exhibit the majority of the traits that is highlighted in the book. If you're not a Ren Water Day Master but you have the Ren Water as one (or more) of the Heavenly Stems in your BaZi chart, then you're likely to exhibit these tendencies in lesser degrees. Alternatively, it suggests that you have the potential or inclination to exhibit these tendencies in specific situations and contexts only.
In BaZi, the concept of STRONG or WEAK elements plays a big role in determining how 'Ren' you are.
So bear in mind that even if you are a Ren Water Day Master, whether or not you display the traits covered here to a greater or lesser degree depends very much on the strength and quality of your Day Master. The Day Stem is but one part of the chart, and there are 3 other Stems and 4 Earthly Branches to consider in your complete chart. These other parts of the chart will influence the strength and quality of your Day Master.
These factors are too varied and complex to be discussed here in a simple book (it is, however, a fundamental section of my professional BaZi courses and Destiny Code series of books). Suffice to say that to read and understand this particular book, you merely need to be aware of this concept. If your Day Master is strong, you'll exhibit MORE of these tendencies or traits outlined in the book. If your Day Master is weak, you'll exhibit less of these traits.
Do keep in mind that this book shows you the traits of the Ren Water Day Master in general, and doesn't take into account the particularities of your entire BaZi chart! Having said that, nothing beats getting a complete BaZi consultation from a professional, or taking a full BaZi course and learning the interpretation skills completely for yourself.
BaZi Astrology is a study that helps us understand ourselves, make better decisions, and ultimately, enables us to shape our life for the better. With these pocket-sized books, I hope to make BaZi a relevant a part of your life -and may the knowledge that you gain serve you in all of life's endeavours.
All the best in your BaZi studies… and here's to discovering what the Ren Water person is all about!
BaZi essentially begins with the Day Master, or the Day Stem. This is basically -YOUR DAY OF BIRTH. On your BaZi chart, as shown in the image below, the Day Master refers to the 'Heavenly Stem' section of your Day Pillar.
