When expressing this birth information into the Chinese calendar, one can see details about the person's life and achievement deduced from the interaction of the 5 basic elements. The birth elements of famous emperors and generals in Chinese history have been interesting area of study and some of these famous people's birth data are very unique that can offer deeper insight in the research and study of Four Pillars of Destiny. This article focuses on the most fascinating examples of Chinese historical figures and explains how their special life path and achievement can be clearly reflected by their respective Four Pillars of Destiny.展开更多
