Heaven Gui (癸)
Gui, hiding Jia-Yin: closure, nets, obscurity and endings. Below are its combinations over the nine earth stems.
How to read Gui
Gui hides Jia-Yin and is yin Water. It stands for closure, concealment, endings and things that cannot be seen clearly, and also the image of a net. Gui's palace warns that information may be incomplete; verify more and be patient.
The heaven stem stands for change, outside forces or the visiting side; the earth stem for the existing situation or the host. Gui means much the same on either plate, but on the heaven plate it leans towards what is happening or arriving from outside, and on the earth plate towards what was already there, on your own side.
