This article has been merged successfully along with the korean Saju name. Yes this is so advanced I don't expect this page to ever have anything close to complete info. But I believe four pillars is just a concept. The individual different fortune telling procedures like
Zi wei dou shu is what's complex.

I believe that the
傷官 (Four Pillars of Destiny) article should be merge into the
Four Pillars of Destiny article. I further believe that the 傷官 (Four Pillars of Destiny) article was always meant to be a part of the Four Pillars of Destiny article.
we read Syō-Kan(like the pronunciation , Show-can), in Chinese we often see as 背禄) is a pronoun and a concept in Four Pillars of Destiny.
For the complete research of Four Pillars of Destiny , it is the most important concept.The 傷官 worker is too complicated and sometimes chenges into an extreme
effector.
Further more, the 傷官 (Four Pillars of Destiny) article seems to build on the Terminology selection and general page concept of the Four Pillars of Destiny article. Although, I do know not enough about
Chinese astrology to say for sure.

(From the Author)
The 傷官 is so broad concept and the "Four pillars of Destiny" is forming the perfect links of the ten,"比肩・劫財・食神・傷官・偏財・正財・偏官・正官・印綬・偏印".
No merge. I have a problem with the Japanese one being merged with the Chinese system article. It's also confusing that the titles are almost the same (especially for the English reader). Maybe just a reference in the introduction with a redirect line at the top: "For the Japanese Four Pillars system..." and a link there. On the Japanese page, "For the Chinese Four Pillars system..." Perhaps change the titles to Four Pillars of Destiny (Chinese astrology) and so on. No-one's done anything so far, so I guess there's no rush.

Provided they're two different branches of the same system, this article should reasonably address both systems, perhaps using
summary style while maintaining separate articles for each under different names. If they're reasonably distinct concepts, then there should be a disambiguation page. —/

Not making sense
This article is completely incomprehensible. The example given and the theory on which it is based are given as memory aids to someone already familiar with the meaning and purpose of the concepts used. Could someone who speaks Chinese translate the more basic
Ba Zi article from the Chinese wiki?

Agreed. I briefly looked over the
sexagenary cycle, which helps give badly-needed context for where the stem-branch associations for each year comes from, but it's much harder to find the same for months, days, and times of day. I'm going to link/copy the relevant parts of that page here, but someone will need to find better, clearer explanations for terms that don't have write-ups already.
