A 2001-born client asked about three years of career outlook

2 August 2025Jinan, Shandong Translated by AI

A client asked about her three-year career trend. I read her BaZi and noted she would do better with a side business later.

The screenshots were masked before they were posted. Names, avatars and birth details are covered in the originals; where a translated line reads [redacted], the source was covered too and nothing has been guessed.

Client
Hello Zongyuan, could you help me look at my three-year career trend?
道长您好,麻烦您帮忙看下三年走势 可以吗
Zongyuan

Please provide your BaZi (known in the West as the Four Pillars of Destiny).

Xinsi [redacted] In your BaZi, your root is borrowed from [redacted], and you also have a root vault within your family structure. Overall, your chart shows you have capability. Early on you will work for others or for an organization, but later you will start your own business or run two lines of work at the same time, and your side business will eventually do better than your main job. Looking back, 2024 did not feel good. This year had too much Wood element; even though there was wealth opportunity, [redacted], making money was hard, or your mental state was off, you felt a sense of压抑 (oppression). Also, last year most people made some career adjustments, such as job changes, shifts in how you earn money, or opening up new income channels. But you still made money, especially in the second half of the year.
辛巳[redacted] 八字借根在[redacted]中,家内也有根库,总体来说八字还是有能力。早年会打工或者给单位干,但是后期会自己独立创业或者两条腿走路,且副业之后会干的比主业要强。 往前看,2024年过得体感不怎么好,这一年木大了,虽然见财,[redacted],赚钱辛苦,或者心态上不佳,会感到一种压抑感,以及去年多数做过一些事业上的调整,比如事业变动,取财手段变化,或者开辟出新的赚钱渠道等等。但是还是赚到钱了,尤其在下半年。

Thank you Zongyuan. I've actually been planning to start my own business all along. Since graduation, all my jobs have had different kinds of pressure, and I've been running my own side business too — reselling luxury-style shoes and clothing. This first half of the year I also changed jobs frequently, and I have a plan to switch cities in the second half. What you said is all very accurate!
谢谢道长 确实一直都在盘算着自己创业 毕业以后的工作都有不同方面的压力 也一直在经营着自己的副业 就是倒卖轻奢类鞋服 今年上半年也是工作变更频繁 今年下半年也有切换城市的计划 你说的都非常准确!
Zongyuan
Mm, pay attention to authenticity issues in 2027. Try not to get caught selling counterfeit goods [emoji]
嗯,27年注意真假问题,尽量不要被打假[emoji]
It's good, you've been improving all along.
挺好的,一路在提升
Client
Okay, okay.
好的好的
Thank you so much, please accept this.
谢谢您 请收

The root vault represents your own ability. You cannot inherit wealth from your ancestors, but you can receive some emotional warmth from them. Most of your wealth will be built from scratch by yourself, and the scale will be不小 (not small) later on. The future looks promising [emoji]
根库是你自己的能力,你不能得祖上的财富,但是可以得到一部分心理上的温暖,财富大多数是自己白手起家得来的,之后规模也会不小,未来可期[emoji]
