Destiny Element (dbang thang)

One of the four aspects of elemental divination on the basis of which calculations concerning spheres of influence, wealth, property, food, clothing and descendants may be made in respect of a given year, month, calendar day or hour. The destiny elements corresponding to the years of the sexagenary cycle form thirty consecutive pairs (bu 'ded sum cu), and it is this elemental aspect which generally gives its name to the years of the cycle: wood tiger, wood hare, and so forth. The destiny element of a given year may enter into an identity, mother, enemy, friend or son relationship consequent on the age of a given subject. On these calculations, see Part II, pp. 000-000. The calculation of the destiny element is particularly important for the predictions of natal horoscope relating to four generations of a single family ([[Part IV, pp. 000-000), and for calculations concerning the hour of divination ([[dus tshod dbang thang, Part VII, pp. 000-000).
