What does life with self-punishment mean in the eight characters?

"Punishment" is a special term in numerology, which means injury.

Punishment is divided into "mutual punishment" and "self-punishment", but it does not mean "mutual punishment and self-punishment". Many people often fall into this misunderstanding.

"Mutual punishment" here means that twelve elements hurt each other, and "self-punishment" means that twelve elements hurt themselves. That is, punishment between elements, not punishment between people.

There are four cases of self-punishment: punishment at the beginning of the day, punishment at noon, unitary punishment and punishment at sea. For example, there are two "Chen" in the eight characters. When these two Chen are not restricted by external forces, there will be a situation of self-punishment.

People who commit suicide are often vulnerable to accidental injuries, physical disabilities, eccentric personalities, and most of their fortunes are not smooth. When the external force is enough to restrain self-punishment, there may be a big reversal, which is manifested in the situation of rising to the peak. As for the judgment of the strength of "external force", it is generally necessary to analyze the specific situation, and forecasters often rely on personal experience to decide.
