does it really help? or just a chinese custom.

in chinese metaphysics, we always say 三元 - i.e. 天, 地, 人 or Heaven, Earth, Human. The ideal or perfect situation is when all 3 conditions are at their best. But the premise of Yin/Yang will never allow such perfection at least not for eternity. the chinese civilisation development has various studies such as Yi Jing, Dao philosophy, Chinese Metaphysics, Chinese Medicine etc developed based on this fundamental principle.

Heaven aspects is the quality and capacity at birth and we use BaZi/Zi Wei to determine these. There is a limit on both upside and downside cos otherwise ppl born same day & hour will all have same fate.

What determine the difference is from Earth and Human aspects. Earth, we know is about Fengshui while Human is about action. As Human, we need to use our actions and intelligence to overcome difficulties. If your faith is Taoism, yes, please go ahead to pray to 太歲. Otherwise, it is senseless to make ppl pray to the Tai Sui just for the years they 犯太歲....this, we know many ppl are making those trips in order to give themselves a peace of mind. this is typically 臨時抱佛腳.

in cases of 犯太歲, we need to know which pillar of a BaZi is offending the Jupiter or the Tai Sui of the year and HOW. the pillar affected tells you from which direction and the manner it affects is from the interaction relation with the Tai Sui. i.e. ppl with 甲午pillar in the chart are the worst hit, esp. in Day Pillar. While, 壬午pillar in chart is of second degree. There are of cos pillars which have penalty relation to Tai Sui but they are of lesser degrees, which details are not within scope of this forum.

in BaZi, Tai Sui is always the Ruler of the year. i.e. No other star is mightier than Tai Sui so, ideally, we do not like to 'offend' it. IF we do, as Human, we have the option of using our actions and will to overcome difficulties. E.g. dun make trips during the months a proficient BaZi practitioner advise you not to travel, do not make new investments, do not take major decisions such as marriage, career change etc etc. Lie low and very soon 12 months will be over.

i hope this helps to differentiate Chinese Metaphysic from customs/Faith.

cheers!
