Indirect Resource

Intuition and unconventional insight. Inner wisdom, solitude and alternative knowledge — a perceptive, slightly detached mind that sees what others miss.

What is the Indirect Resource in BaZi?

In BaZi — the Four Pillars of Destiny — the Ten Gods describe how each energy in your chart relates to your Day Master (you). The Indirect Resource (偏印 · Piān Yìn) is what feeds you.

Resource energies feed and support your Day Master — knowledge, mentors, protection and rest. Plenty of Resource makes you studious and well-supported; too much can make you passive, too little leaves you unsupported.
