Ba Zi Ten Gods for Bing Fire Day Master (丙): The Complete Table

green leaf trees illuminated by sun's rays

Bǐng Fire (丙 bǐng) is the sun — yang Fire that radiates outward without asking permission, warming everything in range. If your Day Master (日主 rìzhǔ) is Bing, you are visible by nature and you illuminate more than you consume. To read the chart, you convert every Heavenly Stem (天干 tiāngān) into its Ten God (十神 shíshén), and the bazi ten gods for Bing Fire Day Master follow a clean logic: what feeds you, what you feed, what you control, what controls you.

Because Fire sits in the middle of the productive cycle, your Resource comes from Wood and your Output flows into Earth. Metal becomes your Wealth and Water becomes your Power — a very different map from any Wood Day Master.

The complete Ba Zi Ten Gods for Bing Fire Day Master

Keep this as your reference key and apply it to any stem you meet, whether in your natal pillars or an incoming year.

Stem Ten God
Jiǎ 甲 (Yang Wood) Indirect Resource 偏印
Yǐ 乙 (Yin Wood) Direct Resource 正印
Bǐng 丙 (Yang Fire) Friend 比肩
Dīng 丁 (Yin Fire) Rob Wealth 劫财
Wù 戊 (Yang Earth) Eating God 食神
Jǐ 己 (Yin Earth) Hurting Officer 伤官
Gēng 庚 (Yang Metal) Indirect Wealth 偏财
Xīn 辛 (Yin Metal) Direct Wealth 正财
Rén 壬 (Yang Water) Seven Killings 七杀
Guǐ 癸 (Yin Water) Direct Officer 正官

Companions: Bing and Ding Fire

Another Bǐng sun is your Friend (比肩 bǐjiān) — an equal, another source of light and heat in the chart. Dīng Fire (丁 dīng), the yin candle, reads as Rob Wealth (劫财 jiécái): the same element with opposite polarity, quieter but quick to draw on shared warmth.

Two suns rarely lack for confidence, but they can also burn resources fast and compete for the same sky. When a Bing chart is strong, extra Fire tends to be surplus; when it is weak — a winter sun, say — companion Fire is genuine reinforcement that keeps the Day Master from being extinguished.

Resource: Jia and Yi Wood

Wood feeds Fire, so the Wood stems are what sustains you. Jiǎ Wood (甲 jiǎ), the great tree, is your Indirect Resource (偏印 piānyìn) — big, unorthodox fuel, sudden insight, the mentor who thinks differently. Yǐ Wood (乙 yǐ), the vine and grass, is your Direct Resource (正印 zhèngyìn): steady kindling, formal learning, the reliable care of parents and institutions.

For the sun, Direct Resource in Yi is the gentle, continuous supply that keeps you shining without flaring; Indirect Resource in Jia is the heavy log that can either sustain a long blaze or, if unlit, smother the flame. Practitioners check whether the Wood is dry enough to actually catch.

Output: Wu and Ji Earth

Fire produces Earth, so Earth is what you generate and express. Wù Earth (戊 wù), the great mountain, is your Eating God (食神 shíshén) — expansive, generous output, the work you produce easily and share widely. Jǐ Earth (己 jǐ), the cultivated soil, is your Hurting Officer (伤官 shāngguān): more inventive and more critical, talent that questions the rules it works within.

A Bing person leaning on Wu tends to build broad, warm bodies of work — teaching, hospitality, leadership that people gather around. Leaning on Ji, the same person becomes the sharp innovator or reformer. Both are the sun’s heat turned into ground; the difference is whether it settles or reshapes.

Wealth: Geng and Xin Metal

Fire melts Metal, so Metal is the Wealth you control. Gēng Metal (庚 gēng), raw ore and heavy tools, is your Indirect Wealth (偏财 piāncái) — large ventures, fluctuating gains, the deal that comes in bulk. Xīn Metal (辛 xīn), refined jewellery-grade metal, is your Direct Wealth (正财 zhèngcái), the steady earnings and, in a male chart, the classical wife star.

The concrete image: the sun’s heat is exactly what turns ore into something usable. A strong Bing can work a lot of Metal, forging wealth others cannot handle. A weak Bing that reaches for too much Xin or Geng simply cannot generate enough heat, and the Wealth stays cold and unrealised.

Power: Ren and Gui Water

Water controls Fire, so the Water stems are the force that governs and pressures you. Rén Water (壬 rén), the ocean and great river, is Seven Killings (七杀 qīshā) — powerful, direct pressure; rivals, crises, authority without softness. Guǐ Water (癸 guǐ), mist and rain, is your Direct Officer (正官 zhèngguān): legitimate structure, rank, the discipline you accept willingly.

There is a striking pairing here: the great sun and the great ocean, Bing and Ren, face each other as the sun over water — a classic image of visible power reflected and challenged at once. Whether Water helps or overwhelms depends entirely on the sun’s strength, which is why every reading returns to the question of Day Master strength.

Where the gods sit: palaces in a Bing chart

The pillar a god occupies sets its stage. Rén Seven Killings on the month pillar — the palace of the formative years and the career — is the sun pressed by the ocean through its whole working life, the crisis-manager configuration when the chart is strong enough to bear it. The day branch matters differently: it is the spouse palace, read through its hidden stems. A Bǐng Xū day pillar conceals Xīn inside Xū 戌, placing the Direct Wealth — the classical wife star for a man — inside the marriage seat itself; a Bǐng Zǐ day pillar instead holds Guǐ, the Direct Officer, as the main qi of Zǐ 子, discipline seated at home. And Wù Eating God on the hour pillar, the palace of output and later life, is the broad, generous body of work that arrives in the second half. Check the spouse palace guide for how that day-branch reading works in full.

Reading the map, not just the labels

The table names each star; judgement decides which ones your chart wants. A bright, well-fuelled Bǐng usually welcomes Wealth and Officer to give its heat direction, while a dim winter sun wants Wood and companion Fire first. To go deeper, start with the Day Master overview, compare every stem in the complete Ten Gods table, and read the full Bing Fire Day Master profile. The ten Day Masters guide shows where the sun stands among its nine siblings, the yin flame’s very different key is at Ding Fire ten gods, and the heavy-log resource discussed above is explored on the Indirect Resource deep page.
