Bazi Suanming Counselor Course
Certified Bazi Suanming Expert Education
Course Summary
Bazi Suanming Counselor Course
New online course based on the Manfred Kubny Counselor Course taught in Germany, Austria, Russia, Switzerland and Portland, Oregon at the National University of Natural Medicine - College of Classical Chinese Medicine. Taught by the renowned sinologist and author Dr. Manfred Kubny.
The professional training course comprises a well-founded introduction and instruction in the calculation and interpretation of Bazi Suanming, or as it is known in the West, “Four Pillar Astrology” or “Four Pillars of Destiny”. In China and Taiwan the method is better known as Bazi Suanming which literally translates as “Calculation of Destiny/Fate/Life according to the Eight Characters”.
Bazi Suanming is an ancient Chinese and incredibly precise science for the analysis of human nature, the character of an individual and his development over the entire life-span. It is a technique that is well documented in the literature since the 10th century A.D. which up to this day is disseminated widely in China, Taiwan, Hong Kong and also Japan. In Europe very few specialists are able to interpret it in a comprehensive way.
The course will be delivered in English in 16 Parts covering over 80 Modules of information. Each part consists of a set of modules with multiple videos. Each part will be available on a pedagogic schedule to give you enough time to properly absorb the material (every 1-2 weeks).
Modules include all ways of calculation and all techniques and measurements used to detect the “operative consciousness” (yong shen), the “desiring consciousness” (xi shen) and the “neglecting consciousness” (ji shen), which are the key terms and important result of all calculations. An interpretation of a Bazi-chart is not possible without detecting the “operative consciousness”. While learning this instrument, the first rules of interpretation will be gradually introduced.
The 12 Life Palaces, which are described as the "compass" or the "cartography" of the Bazi landscape for consulting the client, is another important instrument discussed.
Later Modules include the different ways of applying rules and interpretation of typical questions or topics uttered by the clients during the consulting session. For example: Bazi consultations for the development of, or for a decision to choose out a Bazi confirmed profession, are structured in a different way and use other technical instruments and rules than when consulting for partnership and marriage. The Bazi-chart is therefore a room with different door that the expert has to use differently for consulting a specific topic.
