Birth Time Verification

Choosing the Geng-Wu hour (noon 12:00) as the most reasonable timing. When the Day Master Jia Wood meets the time stem Geng, it forms Seven Killings (七杀), revealing the General Star and indicating boldness and talent for warfare and command. The Wu Fire aids Bing Fire, granting prestige and authority and showing the ability to lead troops, organize logistics, and build bases. The Wu hour also hides 丁 and 己, which benefit garrison logistics, finances, and administration, aligning with the governance talents for founding a military, training, and the sports/physical education administration. The noon hour is prone to power struggles and conflicts, which can explain late-life persecution and major political upheavals. Compared with other hours, Bi Jian or Yin Shou lean toward self or civil roles; Jie Cai often leads to faction-building, while Zheng Guan is cautious; none match the Geng-Wu's combination of martial bearing and organizational governance. Therefore noon is the most fitting choice.

Core Analysis

He Long's birth chart centers on 甲日主 (Jia Wood) in the day pillar 甲戌. The chart shows a complex interplay of 十神 — visible 食神, 伤官, 正官/七杀 and 偏财/偏印 — creating a command-oriented 格局: creative action balanced with authority pressure. Lack of strong direct Water resources in the natal pillars makes the Jia wood character somewhat self-reliant and resilient rather than soft-nurtured.

Throughout his life, the flow of 大运 supports key phases: early 印运 (壬辰、癸巳) provided ideological formation and learning; the 比肩/劫财 era (甲午、乙未) coincides with independent leadership and founding military activity; mid-life 食神/伤官运 (丙申、丁酉) aligns with logistical innovation, organizational prominence and public roles. The later 偏财/正财与七杀运 (戊戌、己亥、庚子) correspond to complex political interactions and vulnerability to external power clashes.

In Five Elements terms, the chart leans on Metal and Fire influences (辛、庚、丙、午、申), giving wood a catalytic environment: fire warms and drives action, metal creates friction and challenge that forges discipline. This combination yields a personality strong in command, strategy and management, but also prone to political confrontation when unchecked.

Overall, the natal pattern reveals a leader whose 格局 favors organized military initiative, loyal stewardship and practical governance, with life-course turning points clearly reflected in the sequence of 大运.

Traits

1

Leadership

High leadership capacity derived from 甲日主 encountering 正官/七杀 and supportive 食神; this mix creates decisive command and authoritative presence consistent with military command roles.

2

Strategic Acumen

Exceptional strategic sense explained by prominent 食伤 patterns that favor tactical creativity and adaptive planning; 大运 in the 1930s–1940s strengthened operational genius.

3

Organizational Skill

Strong administrative and logistical ability indicated by balanced 食神–偏财 interactions, enabling effective resource mobilization and base-building in wartime and governance.

4

Political Vulnerability

Exposure to political risk arises when 偏财 and 七杀/正官 cycles overlap in later 大运, increasing likelihood of external challenge and factional pressure despite personal loyalty.

Inspired by the wave of the 1911 Revolution, He Long joined the Chinese Revolutionary Party led by Sun Yat-sen in areas such as Sangzhi and Shimen in Hunan, formally dedicating himself to the armed struggle against imperialism and feudalism, thus embarking on a magnificent revolutionary career.

Analysis
This year, Mr. He Long was in the 癸巳 Major Cycle. The earthly branch of the Major Cycle, Si (Fire), is the Eating God, which also contains the Seven Killings (Geng Metal), the favored Seven Killings energy in his destiny.

This is a year of both Clash with Tai Sui and Punishment with Tai Sui, indicating major life changes and conflicts, corresponding to the image of joining the revolution and leaving home to travel. The Year Branch Yin (Wood) is the Traveling Horse, clashing with the Shen (Metal) Traveling Horse in the Year Pillar, intensifying the signs of change and long-distance travel. The appearance of Heavenly Official Nobleman and Heavenly Virtue Harmony in the Major Cycle and Year Pillar's auspicious stars foretells grand career plans and a bright official path.

He Long led 21 young men, using two kitchen knives to raid the Bamaoxi Salt Bureau, seized firearms, organized the Sangzhi Army to Oppose Yuan and Protect the Nation, and served as its commander-in-chief, formally beginning his magnificent armed struggle career.

Analysis
This year coincided with the 癸巳 Direct Seal Major Cycle. The earthly branch of the Major Cycle, Si (Fire), is the Eating God, containing Geng Metal (Seven Killings), precisely the time when Seven Killings gain ground. The Major Cycle combines with the Shen Metal (Seven Killings) of the Year Pillar, activating the powerful Blade Controlling the Killings pattern in his destiny. The Year Pillar 丙辰 has the Eating God appearing on the heavenly stem, representing action and strategy. The earthly branch Chen (Earth) forms a Triple Water Bureau (Seal Bureau) with the Year Pillar's Shen (Metal) and the Hour Pillar's Zi (Water). The Seal Star represents teams, organization, and support, indicating he could gain popular support and have a foundation for success. Crucially, the Year Branch Chen (Earth) clashes with and overcomes the Day Branch Xu (Earth) (Wealth Treasury and Spouse Palace). This clash signifies 'breaking the old to establish the new,' shattering the constraints of the original pattern, and fully unleashing the accumulated energy of Seven Killings (military force, decisiveness) and Rob Wealth (brothers, companions) in his destiny, transforming it into the powerful driving force for armed uprising and creating a new situation. This is the opposite of 'storing weapons and resting horses,' marking the period for drawing the blade and achieving merit.

He Long and Wu Yulin, using two kitchen knives as weapons, ambushed the county magistrate's guards in Cili County, successfully seizing two firearms. Based on this, they raised a new peasant armed force, embarking on a new revolutionary journey.

Analysis
This year was the 丁巳 Year Pillar, which forms a Gui-Ding clash with the 癸巳 Major Cycle, signifying Hurting Officer meets Direct Officer, a strong signal of breaking the old order and displaying extraordinary courage and drive. The Year Branch Si combines and punishes the Year Pillar Shen, activating the inherently powerful Seven Killings energy in his destiny. His Bazi chart has a Blade (Yang Ren) structure, which favors using Seven Killings to control his overly strong Rob Wealth (Blade) energy. The Year and Major Cycle branches are both Si (Fire), containing Geng Metal (Seven Killings), precisely when the favored element gains ground, pushing the leadership courage and military talent of the Blade Controlling the Killings pattern to its peak. The Hurting Officer represents wisdom and risk-taking, and the Seven Killings represent force and decisiveness.

Enlightenment in Taoyuan: Awakening and Choice of Revolutionary Thought

While stationed in Taoyuan, through contact with progressive individuals, He Long began systematically accepting Marxist thought, marking a crucial turning point in his life's faith and path.

Analysis
This year, he was in the 甲午 Major Cycle, and the Year Pillar was 庚申. His Day Master is Jia Wood, strong and favoring Metal (Officer/Killings) for refinement. The Year Stem Geng Metal (Seven Killings) appears, precisely the Regulating Element favored by his Blade Controlling the Killings pattern. The Seven Killings represent transformation, authority, and new rules. Geng Metal cleaving Jia Wood is like an axe splitting open his ideological barriers, enabling him to accept and embrace Marxism, representing the new era's rules. The Year Branch Shen Metal is also a strong root for the Seven Killings, and it secretly combines with the Month Pillar's Mao Wood, meaning the new thought (Shen Metal, Seven Killings) formed a deep connection with his inner courage and drive (Mao Wood, Blade). Simultaneously, encountering Heavenly Virtue Nobleman and Literary Star Nobleman in the Year Pillar indicates receiving intangible protection and intellectual enlightenment, beneficial for contacting and learning profound, advanced theoretical systems. The Major Cycle branch Wu Fire (Hurting Officer) signifies active thought and pursuit of ideals. Combined with the Year Pillar's Seven Killings, it forms an aggressive 'Hurting Officer controlling Killings' momentum. This intellectual awakening laid the cornerstone for his magnificent revolutionary career.

Assuming Command in Crisis, Intercepting Arms and Showing Prowess

Appointed by Dr. Sun Yat-sen, He Long became the commander of the 1st Mixed Brigade of the Sichuan 'Bandit-Suppression Army.' He personally led his troops and successfully intercepted the Japanese steamship 'Yiyang Maru,' which was transporting arms for the Northern Warlord Wu Peifu, on the Yangtze River, demonstrating outstanding military courage and capability.

Analysis
This year, Mr. He Long was in the 甲午 Major Cycle (Peer Cycle), and the Year Pillar was 癸亥 (Direct Seal Year). His destiny inherently has the powerful Blade Controlling the Killings pattern, using the Seven Killings to command troops and pioneer. The Year Stem Gui Water (Direct Seal) appears, representing formal appointment and trust from superiors (Sun Yat-sen) (Heavenly Nobleman). The Major Cycle branch Wu Fire resonates with the General Star in the Hour Pillar, activating the General Star energy and allowing his leadership talent to be fully utilized. However, the Year Branch Hai Water half-combines with the Month Pillar's Mao Wood into a Wood bureau, meaning Peer/Competitor (Wood) energy gains ground, indicating a fiercely competitive battlefield environment requiring personal involvement. Relying on the powerful Seven Killings (Geng Metal) in his destiny to control the Blade (Mao Wood) energy, he combined personal bravery with military strategy, decisively striking and succeeding in the complex 'bandit-suppression' situation, precisely reflecting the power of his destiny pattern.

Achieving Merit in the Northern Expedition, Holding the Commander's Seal

Due to outstanding military achievements in the Northern Expedition, He Long was promoted to Commander of the Twentieth Army of the National Revolutionary Army, becoming a famous left-wing general at the time, reaching a significant peak in his military career.

Analysis
This year, Mr. He Long was in the 甲午 Major Cycle. The Major Cycle branch Wu Fire is the Hurting Officer, representing the display of talent and action. The Year Pillar 丁卯 has Ding Fire Hurting Officer appearing on the stem, and Mao Wood (Rob Wealth/Blade) on the branch. His destiny has a Blade structure, which favors using Seven Killings; only by controlling the Blade with Killings can great achievements be made. The Year Branch Mao Wood combines with the Day Branch Xu Earth (Partial Wealth, Officer Treasury) transforming into Fire. This is 'Hurting Officer generates Wealth' and activates the Day Pillar representing power and subordinates. Simultaneously, the Major Cycle and Year Pillar carry the General Star, a strong signal of leadership talent being exercised. The Hurting Officer represents bravery and strategy, transforming into military achievements; Mao-Xu combining into Fire, Fire being the Eating/Hurting Officer, also represents widespread fame. Although the unfavorable Wood (Rob Wealth) is strong, under the control of the Seven Killings (military power, pressure) and transformation by the Hurting Officer (talent), it instead becomes the team strength and fighting spirit for achieving merit.

Analysis
This year coincided with the 甲午 Major Cycle. The Major Cycle stem Jia Wood (Peer) is an unfavorable element in his destiny, intensifying the competitive and contentious environment but also stimulating his leadership and organizational abilities. The Year Pillar 戊辰 and his Day Pillar Jia-Xu form a Heavenly Stem Clash and Earthly Branch Clash (Jia clashes with Wu, Xu clashes with Chen). This is a signal of a major life turning point, breaking open the Wealth Treasury (Xu Earth) and Spouse Palace in his destiny, meaning the old pattern was completely shattered, with career, wealth, and family relationships all facing drastic change.

Analysis
This year coincided with the 乙未 Rob Wealth Major Cycle, and the Year Pillar was 庚午. In destiny theory, Geng Metal Seven Killings is the favored element for the Jia Wood Day Master, representing authority, challenge, and pioneering. The Major Cycle stem Yi Wood (Rob Wealth) and the Year Stem Geng Metal (Seven Killings) combine into Metal (Yi-Geng combine), transforming competitors (Rob Wealth) into Officer/Killings (power), corresponding to 'combining Killings to retain Officer,' an excellent opportunity to consolidate forces and grasp great power. The branches Wu-Wei combine into Fire, activating the Hour Pillar's Hurting Officer generating Wealth, beneficial for strategic planning and base area construction. The original Blade Controlling the Killings pattern was perfectly activated this year. With the Seven Killings being utilized, the General Star appearing, and the Heavenly Official Nobleman blessing, it was precisely the time to command thousands of troops, expand territory, and establish merit.

He Long led the Red Third Army into the Sichuan-Guizhou border region, successfully creating the Qiandong Soviet Area, and resolutely executed Xiong Gongqing, the envoy sent by Chiang Kai-shek to persuade surrender, demonstrating firm revolutionary stance and outstanding military leadership.

Analysis
This year was the 甲戌 Year Pillar, which repeats (Fu Yin) his Day Pillar Jia-Xu, a key year for revisiting old matters, tests, and breakthroughs. The Year Stem Jia Wood is a Peer, and the Year Branch Xu Earth is Partial Wealth, combining with the Month Pillar's Mao Wood to form Fire (Mao-Xu combine), activating the Mao-Xu combine into Fire inherently present in his destiny. Fire is the Eating/Hurting Officer, representing thought, action, and decisiveness. This combination enhanced his courage and execution. Simultaneously, the Year Branch Xu Earth is Partial Wealth, combining with the Month Pillar, also means gaining important resources and territory in the external environment. His Bazi has the Blade Controlling the Killings pattern, favoring Metal (Officer/Killings) to control his overly strong Wood energy. The Year Branch Xu contains Xin Metal (Direct Officer), where the favored element gains ground, representing strengthened authority, discipline, and control. This is the destiny reflection of creating a base area and enforcing military discipline (e.g., executing the persuader). The auspicious stars Monthly Virtue Nobleman and State Seal Nobleman appear simultaneously in the Year Pillar. The former helps avert danger and gain support, the latter represents official recognition and authority, jointly aiding in creating a new career situation.

Analysis
This year coincided with the 乙未 Rob Wealth Major Cycle. The Year Pillar 乙亥 again shows Rob Wealth on the stem, with unfavorable Wood energy peaking, bringing unprecedented competition and pressure. However, the Blade Controlling the Killings pattern in his destiny was fully activated at this moment. The Month, Major Cycle, and Year Pillar form a Triple Wood Bureau (Mao-Wei-Hai), seemingly a great gathering of Peer (comrades-in-arms) strength, but actually completely activating the original Seven Killings (Geng Metal) energy in his destiny. The Seven Killings represent authority, the army, and decisive action. Surrounded by heavy Peers, they instead stimulated the powerful leadership and decisiveness of controlling Peers with Killings, precisely the destiny portrayal of leading troops to break through and command a large army. The appearance of the Heavenly Nobleman in the Year Pillar also foretells receiving crucial assistance and team support in extreme adversity.

The Red Second and Sixth Army Corps joined forces with the Red Fourth Front Army in Ganzi, forming the Red Second Front Army, with He Long appointed as its commander-in-chief. He firmly opposed Zhang Guotao's separatist actions, demonstrating a firm political stance and leadership courage.

Analysis
This year, Mr. He Long was in the 乙未 Rob Wealth Major Cycle. The Major Cycle stem Yi Wood is an unfavorable element in his destiny, intensifying the power of Peers (competition, colleagues), creating a complex environment with intense internal struggles. However, the arrival of the 丙子 Year Pillar brought a crucial turning point. The Year Stem Bing Fire Eating God combines with the Month Stem Xin Metal Direct Officer (Xin-Bing combine into Water). This is the 'combining Officer' phenomenon, representing authority, official appointment, and career opportunities being strongly activated, a strong signal of receiving formal appointment and leadership authority. Although the Year Branch Zi Water punishes the Month Branch, bringing internal pressure and tests, it also half-combines with the Year Pillar Shen Metal into a Water bureau, enhancing the Seal Star's power, beneficial for making correct decisions at critical moments. His destiny's inherent 'Blade Controlling the Killings' pattern, combined with the Year Pillar's 'General Star' and the Major Cycle's 'Heavenly Official Nobleman' blessing, enabled him to navigate the complex struggle environment with powerful courage and decisiveness, taking on the responsibility of Front Army commander-in-chief.

Analysis
This year was the peak of Marshal He Long's career. His Day Master is Jia Wood, strong and favoring Metal (Officer/Killings) for refinement. 1949 was at the end of the 丙申 Major Cycle (1940-1949).

The Year Branch Chou contains Xin Metal Direct Officer, and it is where the favored element Metal gains ground, strengthening the Officer Star's power, corresponding to the image of holding military power and commanding a region.
