Birth Time Verification

This case uses 04:45, the Yin hour. The source type is web search. Lavoisier’s date and birthplace are stable, but online chart sources give different times. 04:45 falls in the Yin hour, and the local BaZi calculation gives Gui Hai year, Geng Shen month, Wu Zi day, Jia Yin hour. Yin brings Jia Wood Seven Killings and directly clashes Shen in the month branch. Lavoisier rebuilt chemical language, but he was also tied to an old tax institution and died in revolutionary politics. Shen-Yin clash and punishment explain that mix of scientific order and political danger better than a calmer hour would.

Core Analysis

With the Yin hour, Lavoisier’s BaZi is Gui Hai year, Geng Shen month, Wu Zi day, Jia Yin hour. Wu Earth is born in the Shen month. Geng Metal Eating God appears in the month stem, and Gui Water Wealth appears in the year stem. The main reading is Eating God structure, Eating God producing Wealth.

This suits experiment, measurement, naming, and system-building. Shen and Zi form a Water half-combination, making Wealth strong. Water points to material flow, finance, resources, and accounts, which also echoes his connection to the Ferme générale tax system.

He was executed in 1794 during the Yi Mao luck cycle and the Jia Yin year. Yi Officer was already active in luck, while Jia Yin repeated the hour pillar as Seven Killings. Yin clashed Shen, and Yin combined with Hai toward Wood. In traditional life-limit reading, Officer and Killing overlapping while the month branch is clashed is an extremely dangerous sign.
