Effects​

Gu Luan Sha is a type of Shen Sha (神煞) in Bazi (八字), primarily affecting marriage and emotional life. People with Gu Luan Sha in their destiny often experience marital discord and emotional setbacks, leading to distant relationships between spouses. When a man has Gu Luan Sha, he usually has a poor relationship with his wife and may have extramarital affairs. When a woman has Gu Luan Sha, she often marries late, experiences bland marital emotions, and faces emotional issues. This Sha may also lead to weak connections with children or fertility problems.

Gu Luan Sha, also known as "Shen Yin Sha (呻吟煞)," is a traditional metaphysical concept associated with marital and emotional discord. Ancient beliefs suggest that people with this Sha, especially women, have shallow marital connections and face many emotional challenges. Men may experience extramarital affairs or marital discord. When Gu Luan Sha appears in the Day Pillar and Hour Pillar, it particularly affects marital bonds, leading to loneliness, unmarried status, or late marriage, and may cause lifelong emotional distress.

An ancient verse states: "Wood and Fire meet Snake, great misfortune; why must Metal Pig be so reckless; Earth Monkey, Wood Tiger, where is the spouse; facing Gu Luan, dance a lonely dance." This suggests that Gu Luan Sha affects marriage and family, bringing endless troubles. Those with Gu Luan Sha often face setbacks in love and marriage, struggling to find true love. Especially in women's destiny charts, Gu Luan Sha often signifies marital discord and even hints at husband-related misfortune.
