BaZi Indirect Seal Takes Food: Ideas Held Down

The moment students hear Indirect Seal taking Food, they think of harming children, harming appetite. The face looks worse than hearing Officer/Killings. A fierce noun does not mean everyone answers disaster.

Indirect Seal is 梟神. Indirect Seal controlling Food God is called taking Food. Food God is ideas, appetite, craft, that bite of rice you live by; also often children, expression, the ability to live days smoothly. Seal going to control it is backing, learning, mother, a master, that set of theory, pinning down your force of “wanting to speak, wanting to do, wanting to eat this bite of rice.”

After the pin, a person does not suddenly become stupid. They have learned a lot, cannot use it; craft is there, dare not sell; words at the mouth, swallowed by one sentence of “you are not ready yet.” That is taking, not absence.

First break a misunderstanding: Indirect Seal in the chart is not taking Food. Indirect Seal must control Food God, and Food God must be the point being struck. Indirect Seal present, no Food: another kind of life. Food present, Seal not going to control: also not taking. Seeing Seal, seeing Food: first ask whether control landed, then ask whether what is controlled is Useful God or Unfavorable God.

Seal and Output: one governs teaching, one wants an outlet

Seal generates the Day Master. Output drains the Day Master. One wants you in, wants you taught, wants you fed. One wants you out, wants you to speak, wants you to turn skill into days. Both are needed. You cannot keep only one side.

Seal too strong, Food controlled to death: a person stays in principle. Exams, theory, house rules, a master’s words: all larger than their own hands. Output too strong, Seal none at all: a person has speech with no root, many words, scattered deeds, also easy to offend backing completely. Indirect Seal taking Food is the former: the outlet swallowed by the inlet.

That bite of rice Food God governs is very concrete. It can be real rice: appetite, gut, routine, mouth-desire. It can be the rice you live by: a craft, a product, a job that eats from expression. It can be the children line. It can also be that bit of freedom of “I want to live this way.” Seal coming to take: which line hurts most must map onto life. Do not only memorize harming children.

When a weak Day Master needs Seal, taking Food is not necessarily all inauspicious

This sentence must be said, or students using Seal will scare themselves into not daring to study.

A weak Day Master first needs to live. Seal generating the Day Master is a rescue. Seal arriving, incidentally controlling Food God: first plug the mouth that drains the Day Master, leave qi for yourself. Taking Food then is not fate opposing you. The structure is saying: live first, then talk expression.

In class this type is common: when young managed very tightly, mother or teacher very strong, themselves few words, many ideas but dare not bring them out. In a weak-Day-Master phase, that can actually finish the books, fall ill a bit less, keep the backing. When the Day Master is strong, luck brings Output out, that bite of rice’s turn arrives. Taken early does not mean a lifetime with no outlet.

The reverse: strong Day Master, Output as Useful God, living by craft and expression. Indirect Seal coming again to take Food is pulling down the stage. Making choked by theory, business bound by ideas, speech blocked by elders; money and the children line will both be stuffy. Same called taking Food: one is a side effect of keeping life, one is smashing the rice bowl. Auspicious or inauspicious only asks whether what is struck is the bite you need to use now.

Direct Seal controlling Hurting Officer, and Indirect Seal taking Food, taste different

Seal controlling Output, Direct and Indirect both exist. Direct Seal controlling Hurting Officer is also Seal pressing the outlet, the flavor more upright: teaching, study, manners, pinning rebellion down. Mother like a teacher, teacher like a mother. A person feels managed, but the reason for managing can be understood: can pass exams, rules are there, outside can also be explained.

Indirect Seal taking Food is more swallowing, more empty, more occult. Not teaching you into shape. Absorbing you away. What you study is mixed, empty, sideways, and does not match when used in life. Much further study, few works. A master’s words larger than facts, theory larger than hand-feel. A person drills a horn: the same problem thought over and over, rice also eaten strangely, sleep also strange, ideas especially many at night, in the day cannot produce one finished piece.

So Direct Seal controlling Hurting Officer, I more often advise: let that dissent go into exams, into a profession, do not take it home to meet people. Indirect Seal taking Food, I more often advise: fewer empty studies, fewer changing trades into the occult, finish one craft before talking the next certificate. One is teaching past the mark. One is the outlet swallowed away. The advice cannot be shared.

In career, cannot use it; in feelings, speech is pinned

On the career line, Indirect Seal taking Food most often is not no degree. It is degree and doing disconnected. Résumé long, works short. In meetings there are ideas, spoken then taken back, or spoken then beaten back by theory. People who live by Output generating Wealth hurt most: talent cannot become money, because that bite of rice is being pinned by Seal.

Another kind: mother, master, the previous company’s method, managing until they cannot change hands. The market has clearly changed; they still use the old correct theory. Seal’s “right” chokes Output’s “alive.” Looks loyal to the profession. Actually the profession already will not let them eat.

In feelings, Food God is also tolerance, nourishing, living days with flavor. Taken by Indirect Seal: a person easily picks diet, routine, ways of intimacy, and cannot say clearly what they want. Words in the throat; the other half only sees their mood is bad. In a woman’s chart Food God also links children, the wanting-to-raise line. Taken heavily is not destined to have no descendants. This line will stick, overthink, be pressed by elders’ opinions. In a man’s chart ask: are you living the home into a classroom, treating the partner as a student to teach.

When luck cycle and annual luck bring Indirect Seal taking Food, how to walk that year

Present in the natal chart: base color. This person for a lifetime easily “thinks much, brings out little”; voices at home or in the teacher’s door are louder. Luck cycle Indirect Seal taking Food: this decade study and expression will fight as a theme. Do not press all livelihood onto an empty degree or an idea you cannot explain.

Annual luck Indirect Seal taking Food, the method I give is also earthy:

Further-study direction, not too empty. That year wanting class is fine. Pick short, that can be picked up, that can connect to work at once. Long, empty, occult, guaranteeing enlightenment: most easily swallow money and time.

Fewer changing trades into the empty. Originally a bite of rice, suddenly feeling not high-end enough, wanting to do something very ideological with no clients. In a year Food is taken, judgment runs toward the empty. Keep the original rice bowl first.

Gut and mood should be asked. Once Food God is injured, appetite, sleep, desire to speak all easily go strange. Do not treat it only as a mood problem. Eating at no fixed time, cannot sleep, wanting to vomit, suddenly not wanting to see people: all should stop and check. Do not rely on another set of side methods to add another layer of Seal.

At work, fewer taking unfinished ideas out to boast. Seal will punish this: the bigger you talk, the less you can deliver after. Finish small pieces, then speak.

One swallowed, one saved

A female student, Food God originally Useful God, living by writing and design. Walking an Indirect Seal luck cycle, she started stacking classes, chasing masters, revising pieces she used to be able to deliver until she could not deliver. Money less, the gut spoke first, mother’s opinions became especially large. That is Useful Food being taken, the rice bowl choked by theory. I had her drop two empty classes, finish revising one old work and put it up. Seal’s volume dropped at once, Food could come back.

A male student, Day Master weak, Food God draining the Day Master and also seeing Killings. When young Indirect Seal heavy, mother managing diet, major, friends; he himself felt no freedom. But those ten years he did not collapse, and the books got read. Weak Day Master using Seal: taking Food is the cost, not the main disaster. Later the Day Master a bit stronger, Output with an outlet: a person could take what they had learned and use it. That bite of rice pinned early became later capital.

Both called Indirect Seal taking Food. One needs to loosen Seal to save Food. One needs to keep Seal to keep life. The chart-reader’s task is to split whether you now lack an outlet or a living road—not see taking and shout inauspicious.

BaZi Indirect Seal taking Food FAQ

Not necessarily. Food God has a children image. Taken heavily, this line will stick, worry, be interfered with by elders. Not seeing Indirect Seal, seeing Food God, and judging no descendants.
