The seven wealth structures
Classical Bazi describes where money comes from, where it lands and where it leaks through the relationship between the Day Master and the Wealth Star. Those relationships fall into seven structures. Think of them the way MBTI describes personality: a vocabulary for a starting point, older and more specific. None is better than another; each has its own path and its own famous charts.
The strength is yours. Money is not your subject; it follows what you do.
A documented chart: Donald Trump
Money moves between people. What you keep depends on whom you walk with.
A documented chart: Stephen King
Wealth arrives in quantity; the test is holding it. Tending the vessel matters more than chasing more.
A documented chart: Winston Churchill
Money comes from what you make. Your craft is the spring.
A documented chart: Jodie Foster
Money grows with the place you build, brick by brick, by structure rather than luck.
A documented chart: Michael J. Fox
Your wealth has a vault: it keeps. Remember to open the door at the right time.
A documented chart: Katharine Hepburn
The waters gather: a rare configuration that needs a riverbed wide enough to carry it.
A documented chart: Sergio Leone

How a chart is assigned to a structure
The engine looks at three things: whether the Wealth Star shows in a Heavenly Stem and has a root, whether the Day Master can carry it, and which star the Wealth Star is tied to (Output Stars, Authority Stars, Peer Stars or a Wealth Vault). The percentages come from the last 309 charts computed on this site.
The year pillar turns at Lichun and the month pillar at the solar terms, to the minute, with your birth moment converted to the calendar's reference clock; the day and hour pillars follow your birthplace clock. Every person cited has a source-graded birth time.
Two minutes with your birth time and the card names your structure, with the famous charts that share it.
