Ten Gods

Direct Resource正印

Jeongin

The nurturing mother — scholarship, protection, and care

Jeongin (正印, Direct Resource) is the Ten God where an element of opposite polarity generates the Day Master. Like a devoted mother, it nourishes and protects — symbolizing scholarship, documents, and care.

What is Jeongin?

Jeongin appears when an element with opposite Yin/Yang to the Day Master generates it. For Jia (Yang Wood) Day Masters, Yin Water (Gui, 癸) is Jeongin. It provides stable, devoted nourishment — like a mother's unconditional support.

Personality Traits

Strong Jeongin individuals excel academically and have high moral standards. They thrive in formal educational environments, showing deep compassion and patience. Natural fits for teaching, medicine, counseling, and civil service. Excessive Jeongin can lead to dependency or lack of initiative.

Symbolic Domains

Jeongin symbolizes the mother, education, official documents, credentials, and real estate (documents). It is the most powerful supporting star for weak Day Masters. Strongly linked to academic success, certifications, and exam fortune.
