The WEALTH (Accomplishment) factor corresponds to the heavenly stems (including those that are “hidden” in the earthly branches) that belong to the element controlled by the Day Master’s element. According to the Control Principle, if the Day Master is Wood, then the Wealth factor is the Earth element, since Wood controls Earth. See the CHART that accompanies this entry. 

The WEALTH factor relates to control and conquest, with the presence of precise goals and the focus on executing all steps until these goals are reached. It should be noted that, despite what the name “Wealth” suggests, the goals involved in this factor are not necessarily financial.

When the Day Master and the heavenly stem (representing the Wealth factor) are of opposite polarities, one yin and the other yang, this represents a variant known in English as DIRECT WEALTH. In our Life Pillars app reports, this variant is presented under the name THE MANAGER. When this variant is prominent in the Bazi chart, it corresponds to individuals whose specialty is achieving results. There is a great sense of practicality, focus, and the ability to work towards goals.

Another variant of the Wealth factor occurs when the Day Master element and the corresponding Wealth heavenly stem have the same polarity. For example, when the Day Master element is yang and the Wealth element is also yang. In English-language Bazi literature, this variant is generally known by the technical term INDIRECT WEALTH. In our Life Pillars app, the variant is presented as the Profile THE ENTREPRENEUR. This variant of the Wealth factor, when prominently present in the Bazi chart, increases ambition regarding goals and a great sense of opportunity.
