What Is White Wax Gold (白蠟金) in BaZi?
Identify the 庚辰–辛巳 White Wax Gold pair, compare its fire-refining and water-support rules, and separate bright-metal imagery from human traits.
Overview
White Wax Gold is the metal-class Nayin assigned to 庚辰 and 辛巳. San Ming Tong Hui pictures clear, bright metal that needs appropriate fire refining and often water support, while distinguishing 庚辰 from 辛巳 and named waters, earths, metals, and clashes; the image does not prove purity, beauty, wealth, health, or ordinary metal strength.

White Wax Gold belongs to 庚辰 and 辛巳
The fixed Nayin table assigns White Wax Gold only to complete 庚辰 and 辛巳 pillars. A Geng or Xin stem, a Chen or Si branch, white metal, wax, or characters spread across separate pillars are not sufficient.
庚 and 辛 remain metal stems; 辰 remains an earth branch and 巳 a fire branch with their ordinary hidden stems. The pair-level metal Nayin does not cancel those branches or manufacture extra ordinary metal.
- Use one complete stem-branch pair.
- Preserve the original branches and hidden stems.
Refining fire and supporting water must be paired correctly
San Ming Tong Hui calls the image bright and clean metal and prefers Furnace Fire for refining. It warns that 庚辰 with that fire may still need water, while 辛巳 is treated differently because 巳 is a metal-birth position and the named stem interaction changes the reading.
Mountain-Foot Fire, Well-Spring Water, Great Stream Water, wood, polishing earth, other metals, and clashes each have specific roles. Fire is not uniformly good, water is not uniformly required, and more metal does not automatically complete the image.
- Separate the 庚辰 and 辛巳 fire-water rules.
- Name the actual refining, polishing, or clashing condition.
Bright metal imagery is not a strength score
OpenFate deterministically maps 庚辰 and 辛巳 to White Wax Gold. Compatibility keeps the result auxiliary and non-scoring, so it cannot override direct pillar relations, chart structure, or favorable-element analysis.
Actual metal strength and function depend on season, roots, hidden and exposed stems, support, control, combinations, clashes, dryness, moisture, and timing. Refining imagery cannot prove that metal is pure, weak, unfinished, useful, or valuable.
- Separate the Nayin name from ordinary metal strength.
- Use whole-chart evidence for metal function.
Brightness and purity are not human rankings
White Wax Gold does not prove pale appearance, beauty, purity, innocence, intelligence, wealth, fragility, skin or lung health, metal allergy, or a manufacturing career. Material color and refining are not clinical or moral categories.
Health, employment, investment, chemical, and workshop-safety decisions require direct evidence and qualified guidance. Never use this Nayin to judge cleanliness, ethnicity, worth, or medical risk.
- Do not convert color or purity into identity and health claims.
- Keep material and workplace risks evidence based.
