Use the day master as reference
Five element relations are split by polarity to form ten labels. The same stem has different labels relative to different day masters; these are relational categories, not independent personality scores.
Labels are not events
Competing peer does not establish theft, expressive output does not establish rebellion, and indirect authority does not establish calamity. Their combinations with other stems and branches matter.
How the text requires conditions
Ziping analysis examines season and configuration rather than stopping at a label. The site explains derivation and traditional associations without claiming that these establish career, health or relationship outcomes.
