Master Chi has written countless articles, yet one has been conspicuously absent: a piece dedicated to the “great woman.”
What is a great woman? She is the kind of powerful woman Master Chi admires and respects above all others — one who commands her own destiny and excels at making her life continuously, progressively better.
If that’s still abstract, look at women like Sister Dong, Wanzhou, Tea Sister, and Ms. Deng. Simply looking at their photographs, you can feel that fierce, vital life force radiating from them.
Anyone with even a passing familiarity with Chinese wisdom traditions understands that the fifteenth day of the first lunar month — the Lantern Festival — is for calling in blessings, and that this day carries far greater weight than the fifth day’s welcoming of the wealth god.
When the Lantern Festival blessings are properly received, the entire year that follows flows smoothly and harmoniously. Your wealth fortune improves. Your career prospects brighten. Your romantic destiny flourishes. Your noble benefactors (Gui Ren) appear.
A casual weekend evening, so let’s talk about something related to women. Nothing too long.
For ease of understanding, let’s call this “The Evolution of Little Sparrow.”
Little Sparrow is actually a very distant younger cousin of mine. Precisely because the connection is so distant, her family’s financial situation was worlds apart from my other relatives nearby.
But her parents, knowing that I had built considerable expertise in destiny reading and understood something about raising a person well, asked her — right as she came of age — to occasionally seek my guidance on important life decisions.
The greatest skill in the world is this: “Never judge anything by its outer appearance — always dig down to its core essence.” — Master Chi
Let me begin with a brutally honest piece of life experience.
A person who cannot see through to the essence of things will, with near certainty, spend their entire life stumbling from one failure to the next. Why? Because they will never discover the key that allows them to rise steadily.
You ask: as women living in the same world, how exactly did those wealthy, magnanimous women climb to such heights?
And how did they pull so far ahead of those petty, dim-spirited women who never amount to anything?
The honest answer: thirty percent is fate, seventy percent is cultivation.
Yet every woman’s wisdom for rising and transforming her destiny is her most closely guarded secret — rarely shared with the world.
A reader with a greedy request: Hello, Master. I’ve seen so many people leaving you messages lately, and I’d like to be a little greedy myself and ask you to talk about marriage.
I believe many readers, like me, feel confused and lost when it comes to this major life matter — not knowing who is worth treasuring, and who we should stay away from.
So if you’re willing to say a few words on this, I’m sure it could save countless people’s happiness and families. Thank you!
Master Chi wants to share something straight from the heart with you.
To truly see through a person’s life circumstances, you often don’t need complex or profound destiny reading analysis. You simply need to know which key elements to look at and examine them carefully — and you can figure out roughly eighty or ninety percent of where their future is headed, high or low, noble or common.
So what is the key that determines a person’s destiny and opportunities?
Since this is a casual essay, let me just talk freely about something I’ve accumulated over many years of reading people and destiny charts — my thoughts on what it truly means to be a “good woman” or a “good man.” Think of it as a leisurely weekend conversation between friends.
But even though it’s casual, I hope you’ll treat it as a high-quality late-night heart-to-heart. Read every word carefully and let it settle in your mind.
Let me get straight to the point and directly answer the question posed in this article’s title: “Why are most people destined to be cast aside by the world?”
The answer is simple: because the core capital of the vast majority of people can only generate value when backed by physical stamina. Take a talented programmer — no matter how skilled, they still need the physical endurance to sustain endless 996 or even 007 work schedules (996: 9am–9pm, six days a week; 007: around the clock, every day). Take a hardworking sales rep — no matter how driven, they still need the physical stamina to pound the pavement from client to client. So if they cannot overcome the physical decline that comes with age, being discarded is their inevitable fate.

Home is the origin of everything.
If someone in your eyes seems to face one setback after another, mired in endless troubles, yet somehow remains cheerful and full of vitality — just look into their home environment, and all your answers will reveal themselves.
Because their family is undoubtedly their greatest pillar of strength, providing a steady warmth that never wavers.
Equally, if someone in your eyes appears perfectly composed, with no apparent reason for sorrow, yet they remain depressed and in pain — just look into their home environment, and every mystery dissolves.
