A Mingliological Analysis of Leaders’Four Pillars of Destiny in Chinese Contemporary History : Focused on Sun Wen, Jiang Jie-shi, and Mao Zedong

This article analyzed the relations among 3 Chinese leaders, Sun Wen, Jiang Jie-shi, and Mao Zedong with the concepts and theories of Chinese astrology called Bazixue or Mingliology. Sun Wen’s Natal Chart(四住原局) has the Day Master of Xin Metal(辛金) and Earthly Branch of Pig Water(亥水) in the Monthly Pillar, which exhausts the Day Master itself and needs the help of Resource Star(印星) and Companion Star(比肩) because there are several Wealth Stars(財星) of Wood(木) around the Day Master. Sun’s Natal Chart is cold and frozen, which needs warmth and fire to harmonize itself. Jiang Jie-shi born with the much energy of Fire and Earth, due to his Natal Chart which has Day Master of Yin Earth-Ji(己土) and Earthly Branch of Rooster Metal(酉金) in the Monthly Pillar. So, his Chart can vitalize and make Sun’s warm. Jiang and Sun were Mingliologically complementary. It explains how Jiang militarily helped and saved Sun in crisis of assassination and terror. Sun Wen and Mao Zedong are not harmonious because both Bazis are cold and frozen. So, they had much gap in ideology and about the future of China, although they cooperated temporarily for the First United Front between NP and CCP. Jiang and Mao were life-long rivals, whose Mingliological relarions are shown in their Day Pillars in which Mao’s Rooster Metal combines with Jiang’s Snake Fire and makes Half Combination(半合) composed of Rooster Metal and Snake Fire. In the last phase of Chinese Civil War, Jiang Was defeated by Mao because the former was not able to use Wood- Useful God(用神), in his Natal Chart, on the contrary, Mao could get much help from Wood- Useful God.
