Unlike a Clash, Harms are often unexpected and comes out of the blue. With a Clash, you can prepare yourself for what's to come. A Harm, on the other hand, usually sneaks up on you and catches you off-guard. This is a case where you are stabbed in the back by someone you trust and love.

                                                   The Six Harms

A Harm is considered a Harm when the two conflicting (see table below) Earthly Branches in the Bazi chart exist. These two must appear side-by-side. A Harm is considered serious if they are located in the Month and Day branches of a Bazi chart. 

If the Branches with a Harm relationship are separated, however, the impact of  is greatly reduced.

A person can also meet a Harm relationship when the year pillar or the luck pillar interacts with the Earthly Branches in the Bazi chart. You must, however, pay attention which Palace is involved: Hour (children); Spouse (Day); Parents (Month); or Grandparents (Year).

Perhaps the best way to deal with Harms is to be careful and pay attention to everything you do and the people you deal with. With Harms, people you love and trust will betray you and cause you emotional pain--learn from them and move on with your life.
