The 10 Gods
Eating God (Shi Shen)
(Shokushin / Shi Shen)The star of creativity, pleasure, longevity, and natural talent.
The Eating God represents the element that your Day Master creates (Output). It is considered one of the most auspicious stars, symbolizing creativity, joyous expression, culinary enjoyment, and a relaxed approach to life.
Individuals with a strong Eating God are naturally talented, optimistic, and often possess artistic or culinary gifts. They attract wealth effortlessly because their creativity flows naturally. It is also the star of longevity and good health.
If the Eating God is overly strong, the individual may become lazy, overly focused on pleasure (food, drink, romance), and lack the discipline required to endure hard work.
