Birth Time Verification

This case uses 02:00, the Chou hour. The source type is verified record. Astro-Databank records Fleming’s birth on 6 August 1881 at 02:00 in Darvel, Scotland, with birth-certificate support. The local BaZi calculation gives Xin Si year, Yi Wei month, Ren Shen day, Xin Chou hour. Chou adds Xin Metal Resource, Ji Earth Officer, and Gui Water Companion. It explains a quiet research path: training, patience, and the ability to notice a small abnormality in the lab.

Core Analysis

Fleming’s BaZi is Xin Si year, Yi Wei month, Ren Shen day, Xin Chou hour. Ren Water is born in the Wei month. Yi Wood Hurting Officer appears in the month stem, while Xin Metal Resource appears in the year and hour. The main reading is Hurting Officer structure, using Wealth and Resource.

The discovery of penicillin is often told as an accident. The chart suggests something more precise: the capacity to notice the detail others pass over. Ren Water sits on Shen, and Si-Shen forms a combination with hidden tension. Laboratory contamination, anomaly, and broken procedure become usable evidence.

He died in 1955 during the Wu Zi luck cycle and the Yi Wei year. Wu Earth as Seven Killings appears, Zi Water supports the day master, and the Yi Wei year repeats the natal month pillar. In traditional life-limit reading, repeating the month branch while Killing Earth presses Ren Water is a serious body signal.

Traits

01

Notices anomalies

Hurting Officer structure pays attention to the small thing that does not fit the procedure.

02

Training protects insight

Xin Metal Resource gives the medical discipline needed to identify a meaningful accident.

03

Discovery matures slowly

Hurting Officer with Resource often needs later testing, purification, and production before the result changes the world.

Birth

Alexander Fleming was born in Darvel, Scotland.

1922
41yrs Career

Discovered lysozyme

In 1922, Fleming discovered lysozyme, an early sign of his attention to natural antibacterial effects.

BaZi Note
Jia Wu luck brings output and experiment. In the Ren Xu year, Companion appears and Xu punishes Wei. The lab environment is stirred, and a small biological effect becomes visible.
1928
47yrs Career

Discovered penicillin

In 1928, Fleming observed the antibacterial effect of Penicillium mold.

BaZi Note
Gui Si luck brings Water support and activates Si. The Wu Chen year adds Killing Earth and movement. Si combines with Shen, turning contamination and abnormal growth into a discovery clue.
1945
64yrs Career

Won the Nobel Prize in Medicine

In 1945, Fleming shared the Nobel Prize in Physiology or Medicine.

BaZi Note
Ji Hai luck brings Officer pressure and Water support. In the Yi You year, Hurting Officer appears and You Metal strengthens Resource. The discovery finally receives institutional medical recognition.
1955
74yrs Personal

Death

Fleming died in 1955.

BaZi Note
Wu Zi luck brings Seven Killings and Water support. The Yi Wei year repeats the natal month pillar. Wei Earth returns and presses Ren Water; in life-limit reading, this repetition of the month branch is important.

FAQ

Is Fleming’s birth time reliable? +
Yes. This reading uses 02:00, the Chou hour, from birth-record material.
Why does this BaZi fit penicillin? +
Hurting Officer notices what breaks the normal procedure, while Xin Metal Resource gives medical training. The Si-Shen combination lets lab accident become a useful clue.
How is Fleming’s death year read? +
1955 was Wu Zi luck and Yi Wei year. The natal month pillar repeated, and Earth pressure grew heavy over Ren Water. Traditional BaZi reads that as a clear body gate.
