Quick answerWhat does it mean when a clash opens the Thìn Tuất Sửu Mùi storehouse?
Thìn, Tuất, Sửu and Mùi are called the four storehouse tombs. According to Tăng san bốc dịch, when a line enters the tomb the matter is suspended, and it only manifests on a day or month that clashes with the storehouse, provided that line is prosperous. In the book's example: a Ngọ fire line is stored in Tuất, and later it manifests on a Thìn day. Trích Thiên Tủy xiển vi by Nhậm Thiết Tiều argues instead that saying a storehouse manifests when clashed is wrong.
