How to see what the five elements belong to?

There are two ways.

The first method is to listen to the five elements. This was in the early stage of the development of the eight-character theory, mainly in the Tang Dynasty (the representative master of this period was Li, whose masterpiece was Li's Letters of Life, and Han Yu, a great writer, wrote an epitaph for Li). In this period, what a person's eight characters and five elements belong to is generally judged according to the year of birth. With the year as the reference point or coordinate, there is a formula to judge the five elements.

The second method is to discuss a person's five elements in his daily work (birthday). This appeared after Xu Ziping, a master of the Song Dynasty (because of him, eight-character fortune-telling is also called Ziping) developed the eight-character theory. From then to now, daily work represents the fate of the master, taking daily work as the reference point or coordinate system.
