Reading Branch Six Harmonies in One Chart: Verified Field Ledger

For the 1990-06-15 14:30 female chart (庚午 壬午 辛亥 乙未), the interaction record lists exactly one transformed pair: 午未六合, with resultElement 火 and transforms:true. The same relevant page shows three non-transforming combinations: 午亥暗合, 亥未拱卯, and 庚乙合, each with transforms:false. It also reports 午午自刑, also transforms:false. Thus, among the six logged Branch Six Harmonies–related entries, only the year-hour 午未 pair carries a transformed status. No other pair in this ledger is marked as transforming. All facts above are directly checkable from the engine’s interaction record for this single chart.

Reading Branch Six Harmonies in One Chart: Input and Four-Pillar Check

Begin with the input record: 1990-06-15 14:30, female. The engine derives four pillars: 庚午 (year), 壬午 (month), 辛亥 (day), 乙未 (hour). A field-by-field check confirms each pillar matches the submitted datetime and gender before any interaction is read.

The engine’s interaction record lists 午未六合 between the year and hour branches, with resultElement 火 and transforms:true. Other listed pairs—午亥暗合, 亥未拱卯, 午午自刑, 庚乙合—all show transforms:false. This page is not a universal pair table; it only verifies that the input pillars align with the recorded branch interactions. See relevant page for the baseline extraction steps behind a four-pillar check.

Subject-Label Position: Verifying the Engine's Pair Record

To check the engine's interaction record against the subject chart, start from the four pillars: 庚午, 壬午, 辛亥, 乙未. For the reported 午未六合, the subject-label positions are the year branch 午 (upper-left) and hour branch 未 (lower-right). The engine labels the pair as 六合, assigns resultElement 火, and sets transforms:true. Verify that the label 六合 appears only beside this pair, not beside 午亥 or 亥未. For 午亥暗合, the subject-label positions are the day branch 亥 and year branch 午; the engine reports transforms:false, so no transformed element should be listed. The same applies to 亥未拱卯 (transforms:false) and 庚乙合 (transforms:false). Confirm that the engine does not mark any of these as transformed; only the 午未六合 carries a resultElement and transforms:true. This field-by-field check ensures the record is read as a boundary case, not as a universal rule. See relevant page.

Reading Branch Six Harmonies in One Chart: Other Reported Same-Chart Relations

As a boundary check, the engine also lists three interactions it does not treat as combining in this natal record. In the same chart, 午亥暗合 appears with transforms:false; 亥未拱卯 appears with transforms:false; and the stem pair 庚乙合 appears with transforms:false. These entries are offered as field-by-field verification data only. Each record includes a transforms flag, and the false value means the engine computed the relation but did not report an element transformation. No universal rule, formation condition, personality consequence, or event meaning is supplied for any of these non-transforming cases. To confirm how branch strength affects such non-transforming outputs, see relevant page.

Numeric-Field Check: Branch Six Harmonies (Liu He) — Pairs and Transformation

This section verifies the engine’s interaction record for the chart with pillars 庚午 壬午 辛亥 乙未. For the reported 午未六合 between year and hour, the numeric fields are: pair (午, 未), resultElement = 火, transforms = true. A field-by-field check confirms that the pair is exactly one year branch and one hour branch, the resultElement is a single element token, and the boolean is set to true. Boundary cases in the same record show 午亥暗合 (transforms: false), 亥未拱卯 (transforms: false), 午午自刑, and 庚乙合 (transforms: false). No other pair, element, or boolean value appears. For further context on reading such records, see relevant page.

Reading Branch Six Harmonies in One Chart: Second Witness or Comparison Field

To verify the engine's record for this chart, compare each reported interaction against the same input pillars: 庚午, 壬午, 辛亥, 乙未. The year branch 午 and hour branch 未 form the pair 午未六合; the engine's output shows resultElement 火 and transforms:true. Confirm that no other branch pair in this chart yields a transforms:true result. The adjacent 午 and 亥 are labeled 午亥暗合 with transforms:false, while 亥 and 未 are labeled 亥未拱卯 with transforms:false. The remaining reported interactions—午午自刑 and 庚乙合—also return transforms:false. A field-by-field check therefore isolates the single transformed pair as 午未. Because the packet supplies no universal pair table or formation rule, this comparison serves only as a boundary verification of the engine's interaction record for the given input.

Reading Branch Six Harmonies in One Chart: Material Not Supplied

This section verifies the engine’s interaction record field by field, using only the supplied instance. For the pair labeled 午未六合, the record gives resultElement 火 and transforms:true. Lacking a formation table, we cannot confirm that 火 is the canonical result for this pair; we can only read it from the record. For the other reported pairs — 午亥暗合, 亥未拱卯, 午午自刑, and 庚乙合 — the record marks transforms:false. No rule or mechanism explains why these are false while 午未六合 is true; the page merely observes the contrast. Boundary cases include missing or contradictory fields, but no such case appears in the packet. Thus, verification is limited to checking that each reported interaction’s fields match the engine output, without inferring universal principles.

Verification Procedure: Verifiable versus Non-Verifiable Claims

Each line in the engine's interaction record represents a claim that can be checked against the four pillars. To verify, locate the two branches named in the claim within the year, month, day, and hour pillars. If both branches appear, the claim is structurally verifiable; otherwise, it is invalid for this chart. Next, confirm the listed resultElement matches the engine's output. Finally, inspect the transforms field: a value of true means the engine asserts a transformation; false means no transformation. In this chart, 午未六合 between year and hour is verifiable because both 午 and 未 appear, with resultElement 火 and transforms true. By contrast, 午亥暗合 and 亥未拱卯 also name present branches, but their transforms are false, making them non-transforming but still structurally present. The field-by-field check separates what is directly observable from what remains unsupported.

Reading Branch Six Harmonies in One Chart: Reader Audit Procedure

  1. Confirm source pair: On the witness line, verify the reported pair is exactly 午未六合 (year branch 午 and hour branch 未).
  2. Check resultElement: Confirm the engine's resultElement value is 火. No other element should appear.
  3. Check transforms flag: Verify transforms:true only for 午未六合. All other listed pairs—午亥暗合, 亥未拱卯, 午午自刑, 庚乙合—must report transforms:false.
  4. Scan for omissions: The record contains no universal pair table, formation rule, personality meaning, or event result. If any such content appears, flag it as beyond the packet.
  5. Boundary case: If the same chart is re-read and a different pair or flag appears, treat the new record as contradictory to the packet and exclude it.

Reading Branch Six Harmonies in One Chart: Input-to-Output Comparison

This section checks each interaction record against the fixed input. The engine must receive exactly 1990-06-15 14:30 female and produce pillars 庚午 壬午 辛亥 乙未; any mismatch invalidates the output. Verify four fields per branch pair: branch pair, result element, transform flag, and engine note. For 午未六合, expect result element and transform true; presence of any other transform flag here is a boundary error. For the remaining pairs—午亥暗合, 亥未拱卯, 午午自刑, 庚乙合—the engine must return transform false. A field-by-field comparison should flag when a pair record omits a required field or introduces a pair not derived from the input pillars. No additional pair table or rule set is invoked.

Reader Fact Check: Verifying the Interaction Record

To confirm the reported Liu He pairs, inspect the engine's interaction record line by line. First, locate the four pillars: year 庚午, month 壬午, day 辛亥, hour 乙未. Then, for each interaction listed, check the two stems or branches involved. The only pair marked with transforms: true is 午未六合, connecting the year branch 午 and hour branch 未; its resultElement is 火. All other interactions—午亥暗合, 亥未拱卯, 午午自刑, and 庚乙合—show transforms: false. Verify that no additional pairs are claimed beyond these five. If any field is missing, such as resultElement for a transformed pair, flag it as incomplete. This procedure provides a boundary check: only the supplied record, not universal tables, is authoritative.
