Element Generating Me is a BaZi ten-god direction term. It is the generating-toward-me direction, usually read through the resource star family.
Reading Role
Use it to place the term in the correct pillar, stem, branch, hidden-stem, or timing layer before drawing interpretation.
Example
In a chart fragment, this term changes what gets read first: location, support, season, or direction of element flow. That keeps the reading from collapsing into a single label.
Limit
Do not flatten it into generic help.
