The Ten Gods (十神) are the ten ways an element can relate to your Day Master — the “you” at the centre of your chart. They turn raw elements into life themes: authority, wealth, creativity, support, rivalry.
We name them in plain English; each also keeps its classical term:
• Authority / Warrior — 正官 / 七杀 (status · challenge) • Earnings / Windfall — 正财 / 偏财 (earned · opportunistic money) • Mentor / Insight — 正印 / 偏印 (support · intuition) • Muse / Maverick — 食神 / 伤官 (creativity · bold expression) • Ally / Rival — 比肩 / 劫财 (peers · competition)
Five themes, each in a “direct” and an “indirect” flavour.
