What Is Indirect Resource (Owl God)? The Indirect Resource Personality, Career & Love
The Ten Gods are the heart of BaZi astrology. They take the relationship between your Day Master — the Heavenly Stem that stands for you — and every other stem and branch in your chart, and sort it, by the generating and controlling cycles of the Five Elements and by yin-yang polarity, into ten roles known as the Ten Gods. Together they map your natural temperament, your gifts, and the lessons your life is here to work through. Indirect Resource, also called the Owl God, is the Ten God that generates your Day Master, sharing the same polarity. It stands for original intuition and knowledge off the beaten track — the angle no one else can see, and the power of quiet, deep study.
