6 Prosperity and decline

 Sixth. The twelve stages of prosperity and decline: three - getting breath, staying in the womb, completing the body; three-birth, washing, dressing; three-performing actions, prosperity, decline; three - illness, death, and going to the grave.
 Start on the basis of Sog, Lu, Wang, and Lungta for calculated. Breath for the Tree - Monkey, the first [month] of autumn. Breath of fire - obtained from a Pig, [first] month of winter.. Breath of metal - obtained from the Tiger, [the first month] of spring. Water and land - calculated from the Snake, [the first month] of summer. Tiger, Monkey, Pig and Snake - head, getting breath. Dog, Dragon, Bull and Sheep - going to the grave, completion.
 Prosperity and decline of Sog - current year. The prosperity and decline of Lu — [calculated] by month. The prosperity and decline of Wang — [calculated] by day. Lungta - calculated by the hour.
 [The good and bad stages are as follows].
 Action and prosperity are the best of the good. Washing and dressing are average among the good ones. The completion of the body and birth are the last of the good ones. They are all six good ones [among the stages of] prosperity and decline.
 Getting breath, staying in the womb is the best of the bad ones. Old age and illness are the average of the bad ones. Death and going to the grave are the worst of the bad. These are the six bad [stages] of prosperity and decline.
 What is the prosperity and decline for parkha? Grave grave grave, hare and Zin, Horse, Snake and Li (Going to the grave, Khen.), bird, Monkey and Two (Going to the grave, Gin.), others starting with Kham (going to the grave, Zon) - getting breath is the prosperity and decline of parkha.

7 Month

 Seventh. Method for determining the beginning of months. Although there are many opinions of their own, some (Padma Karpo and others.) they don't match Chinese calculations. Some (New namdag calculations, etc.) are damaged when checking visible matches. Some contradict the milestones of the time (talk of fools about the old calculations of old Tibet). Some have a flaw and a false understanding of summer and winter. Therefore, [presented] such an unmistakable essential meaning of the new translation of Chinese rachsets, which is consistent with the wonderful milestones of the time.
 This first month, the Hor, of spring is unquestionably the month of the Tiger. Therefore, the Tiger, Hare, and Dragon are the first, middle, and last months of spring. [Months follow] starting from them and up to the month of the Bull in winter. The month element is the son of the current year. For example, when the begins fire-Hare, the spring months of the Tiger - earth, Hare - earth, and so on. then metal-Dragon, metal-Snake, and so on. 
 So calculate the intersection of two, year and month.

8 Day

 Eighth. Twelve calculate of days. Days of the Tiger [go first in] six male months (Tiger, etc.). Dragon — full moon. Sheep - new moon. The days of the Monkey [go first in] the six female months (Hare, etc.). the full Moon is a Dog. New Moon - Bull.
 The day element [is defined as]. Putting the month as a mother, the first and sixth as a son, the second and seventh as a friend, the third and eighth as an enemy, the fourth and ninth as a mother, the fifth and twelfth as one's own.
 However, there are some inconsistencies with the new calculations of the Potang system. You need to have a mind.

9 O'clock [or time]

 The ninth. These are the twelve hours.
 Dawn — a Hare, sunrise - a Dragon, morning warmth of the Sun - a Snake, noon - a Horse. In the afternoon - a Sheep, in the evening - a Monkey, sunset - a Bird, twilight - a Dog, darkness - a Pig, midnight or middle of the night - a Rat, after midnight - a Bull, late night - a Tiger.
 Time hour element. Putting the day as a mother, [hour of] Hare, Monkey, Bull - son, Snake and Dog is the enemy, Horse and Pig — mother, the Sheep and the Rat — their own, Dragon, Bird, Tiger — friends. This is followed by two hours of the time of day in turn.

10  Planet

 Tenth. Calculation of the eight great planets.
 Sun, Mars - fire, South. Moon, mercury - water, North. Jupiter to the East, the tree. Venus - metal, West. Saturn - earth, dominates in the intermediate directions. Rahu — covers all in general, and [covers] all the five elements.
 The Moon, Mars, Jupiter, and Venus are male planets. The Sun, Mercury, and Saturn are female.
 [This is] the order of time in the old tradition of Chinese calculations. For the Tiger, Horse, and Dog, the day [begins] with Saturn. For a Rat, a Dragon, and a Monkey, [it starts] with Mars. For the Pig, Sheep, and Hare — [begins] with the moon. For the Bird, Bull, and Serpent — [begins] with Jupiter.
 In our time, the [system] is widely known, which combines five [counting techniques]. And although there are contradictions in some aspects, why doubt? Stick mainly to the [system], combining the five [calculations]. What is the day, there is prosperity and the son also has prosperity. The mother is weak, the enemy is in decline, the friend is in discord. Prosperity is good, weakness is average, discord and decline are bad.

11  Constellation

 Eleventh. Twenty-eight constellations. Krittika, Rohini, Mrigashirsha, Aridra, Punarvasu, Pushya - Eastern. Ashlesha — South-East. Rohini, Purvaphalguni, Uttaraphalguni, Hasta, Chitra, Swati — South. Visakha - South-West. Anuradha, Jyeshtha, Mula, Purvashadha, Uttarashadha, Abhijit-Western. Sravana — North-West. Dhanishtha, Shatabhisha, Purvabhadrapada, Uttarabhadrapada, Revati, Ashwini - Northern. The Bharani - North-East. 
 Eastern constellations — the tree (a constellations of human well-being). Southern - fire (constellations of welfare in horses and cattle). Western-metal (constellations of prosperity in grain). Northern — water (constellations of prosperity in gold and turquoise). The four intermediate ones are earth (constellations of well-being in the earth and houses).
 Magha, Uttaraphalguni, Chitra, Visakha, Jyeshtha, Purvashadha, Abhijit, Purvabhadrapada, Ashwini, Krittika, Mrigashirsha, Pushya - constellations that collect full moons. Constellation with a full moon-prosperity. With the new moon — decline. All others are indicated as a weakness.
 Similarly, the preliminary table is shown, which opens the gates of black calculations. 
 Thus ends the second-preliminary Chapter of the black calculations "Mirror of revealed existence".
