In 2024, the world is closely watching the US due to the presidential election between the incumbent, Joseph Biden, and the former president (2016-2020), Donald Trump. Using Da Liu Ren divination on July 10th, 2024, during the Dragon hour (two weeks after the first US presidential debate), I generated the following chart.
Please note that a basic knowledge of Chinese metaphysics may be required to understand some terminologies in this writing.
This piece does not predict the election's winner but reflects my thoughts on who might have an advantage or dominance and how the election process will progress. Similar to the well-known Qi Men Dun Jia, the Da Liu Ren method can offer detailed divination. As a resident of the USA, I am particularly interested in how the election will unfold, as it directly impacts my safety and that of my fellow citizens. The writing is not aimed at a full detailed reading but at finding clues that can give me peace or increase my alertness due to the situation.
In the Heaven and Earth Plate, Trump, born in the Year of the Dog (Earth), faces punishments, specifically the Goat-Dog-Ox punishments. During the election process, Trump will be surrounded by many things that can spark emotional turmoil or connection problems. As goats, dogs, and oxes are Earth animals, the punishment can be seen as a love-hate scenario between siblings. Although the situation can be stressful, the Earth's elements brought by the punishment can still support Trump. Think of it as a CEO who runs a large company. Although facing many tough challenges, the CEO can still lead the company, bringing many profits at the end of the day. In short, Trump seems to be in a strong position. Also, note that the Tai Yin's Celestial God is with Trump. This suggests that Trump’s campaign moves are thoroughly planned, worked very hard to execute all details, and even a hidden agenda may exist. Since Tai Yin also suggests females, some campaign moves may relate to women.
Now, let's consider the context of the Heaven and Earth Plate for Biden. Born in the Year of the Horse (Fire), he possesses some interesting readings. The presence of the Horse (fire) with Zhu Que’s Celestial God, well-supported by the Tiger, suggests strong backing for Biden. However, both Biden and his supporters fuel Zhu Que’s Celestial God (fire element), potentially leading to conflicts or disputes around Biden, including among his backers. This tension was particularly evident following the first presidential debate, as there were signs of dissatisfaction among some of his backers/supporters regarding his performance. Although Zhu Que is a negative star, its association with the fire element could also strengthen Biden’s position. However, it's worth noting that Trump may receive slightly stronger cosmic energy support, in my view.
Let's turn our attention to the election process. The three transmissions indicate a strong presence of Earth energy, along with a complete goat-dog-ox punishment. This combination suggests the possibility of relationship difficulties, dissatisfaction, or conflicts related to the election process. In the case of Biden, born in the year of the Horse (fire), the abundance of Earth energy and punishments may deplete his fire energy, indicating potentially less cosmic energy support for him as the election progresses. Conversely, Trump is expected to receive more supportive Earthly energy.
When we look closely at the Dog (Trump’s birth year), we see that it is in the second/middle position. This suggests that Trump holds a strong position during the election process. The process could refer to the period during political campaigns and debates. This does not suggest the final result but can indicate Trump's dominance throughout the election process. Although dominant, the formation does not create an easy life for Trump because the Dragon from the Year 2024 clashes with him. Since he was convicted of several felony counts earlier in the year, the government (the Supreme Court) can be his major obstacle and headache. Once again, Tai Yin’s Celestial God is in the second transmission, suggesting that much planning and strategy were pushed behind the scenes.
Now, to answer my question of whether I should feel peaceful or on alert, I am not happy looking at the third/final transmission containing Ox and Bai Hu’s Celestial God. Bai Hu, or the White Tiger, is simply bad news, and then it happens on top of a complete set of punishments. This can lead to dissatisfaction, and violent matters can occur at the end of the election! Remembering 2016-2017, when Trump won the presidential election, many protests happened. Whoever wins this election may face a tough start. Since divination is done in the month of Goat, and the Goat clashes with Ox (the last transmission), this can indicate more dissatisfaction among the people.

This writing may not carry any weight in the presidential election process. Still, I urge the readers in the USA to remain vigilant, particularly towards the end of the election, October 2024 through October 2025.
